The aspect of financial and commercial affairs is decidedly more favor able than was generally anticipated, as will be seen by reference o the state .of the markets. Foremost in importance is the intelli gence of the appointment of Lord Ast buiton as a special Minister to the Unied States, for the purpose of 'Intering into negotiations for the final settlemient of all ditliculties between the two countries. The repudiation doctrines, about which somuch bis been said in this eountry, caused no excitement whatever in London. The papers scarcely allude to the subject at all, The Message of President Tyler had Lpen received and read with much inter est and satisfaction. Its pacific tone caused immense rise in the funds. The news from Turkey and the East indicate further disturbances. There has been a change of Ministry at Constantino ple. The French Chambers were opened by a speech from itia King on the 27th ut.
