FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. FRENCH PAPERS. (From the Gazette de France, dated Sept. 29.) 1 BUCHAREST, SEPT. 7.—ln my last letter 1 was not able to give you favourable accounts of the state of affairs in the Princip . alities, and I acquainted 'you with the incursions which the Turks had made into them; but am now able to give you the assurance, that every measure has been taken to keep, the Mus sulrnen for the future from the banks of the Danube. General Geismar, reinforced by the corps of Prince Scherbatoff, and supported by Count Langeron, is now able not only to keep the garrison of Widdin in check, but even to resume offnsive operations. Fresh t .00ps are coming from the interior of Russia. Every thing assumes an attitude SQ imposing,that even in c Ise the bad season should force the Russians to suspend their operations, w a c h i s yet doubtful, so considerable a mass of forces will be displayed next spring that Europe will be astonished, and the-Otto man Porte will have no other alternative but to submit to the will of the Emperor of all the Russias, and• to concede not only satisfaction, but also the guarantees required. If, with the use of ordinary means, the Russian army, in the space of three Months, has made itself master of ten fortresses and a considerable quantity of artillery, ,if it has made important conquests in Europe and in Asia, it is beyond a doubt that the army, being reinforced, as may easily he done in proportion to the colossal power of Russia, the latter must infallibly gain the . victory. It is announced, indeed, that the Emperor Nicho las will return for some time to St. Petersburgh; but the journey of that Monarch, if it really takes place, cannot hinder the army from pursuing the advantages which it has already gained. From the p►eparations which are making here, it is easy to see that the war is only just going to begin. The Porte will then repent of having disregarded the pacific voice of the Emperor Nicholas; of having refused the hand which was held out to it, as well'as all the proposals of the Powers, with such infatuation . , that it has forced the French Cabinet to prove to the Divan, sword in hand, that the honour and the in terest of the European nations imperiously require the maintenance of the stipulations that have been demanded, and which, for the general good, have been concerted between them. PARIS, SEPT. 28.—The declaration of the three Ambassadors assembled at Corfu, on the object of the expedition of the French army, is expected in a few days at Paris. It is thought- that our army will return after having been present at the evacua tion of the Morea by Ibrahim Paella. The Journal Cononerce spoke yesterday of the arrival of a son of Lord Ileytesbury with despatches for the English Ambassador. The eldest son of Lord I - Teytesbury only 10 or 12 years of age. The Courici. Fran cais pretended yesterday that a personage had been to the Morea to Gen. Guil}eminot with instructions. No diplomatic personage has been sent to Corfu, but the Instructions of which the Courier speaks are those of the three Ambassadors. The enemies of the Portuguese nation make a great noise about the arrival in Europe of the Prin cess Donna Maria da Gloria; her voyage to Eng land, and the reception preparing for her, fill them with joy. It even seems that the heroes of Oporto recover their courage on seeing a Princess, ten years of age, come to their aid ; but a short time will suf fice to put an end to the rejoicings of the one, to ccol the courage of the others. In fact, the arrival of the Princess in Europe, and her reception in England as Queen, change nothing in the situation of Don Miguel. The Powers had already recog nised this Princess as Queen, and had refused to re cognise Don Miguel as King. To make her position any better, it would be ne cossaty for France or England to employ the force of arms to put her in possession of her kingdom, which they will not do. It is therefore only in con sequence of an accommodation made with "Don Miguel, that she can ascend the Throne of Portugal. It is doubtless to negoeiate such an accommodation that Lord Strangford is gone to Rio de Janeiro.. It is affirmed that Don Miguel . is much inclined to marry Donna Maria. If this is true we think that he has taken the surest way to. extinguish: -all the of his enemies. Them will, perhaps,- be' -.7ome little difficulties resulting from the pretensions ,o)f the parties interested, but doubtless the interven tion of the British Government will remove them, and Royalty and Religion in Portugal will at length be secure against every attack of their enemies, whe ther open or concealed. !From the Messager des Chambres of Sootlay.) PARIS, SEPT. 27.—A Journal announces to-day the a son of Lord Heytesbury has arrived from the head-quarters of the Russian army, and that he was the bearer of important news. We have but a word to answer :—Lard Heytesbury has no son, and no person has arrived from the bead-quarters. The rupture between the Regency of Tripoli and the kingdom of the Two Sicilies has already proved injurious to the mercantile navy of the latter , power. if we may believe letters from Messina, of the 6th September, and from Palermo, of the 18th, 81 Tripolitan .corsairs have put to sea, and have cap tured two or three Neapolitan vessels laden with, (From the Constftutionnel of Stinday.) VIENNA, SEPT. IB.—(Private Correspondence.) —The present situation of this city lead us to ob ervations very different from those made by the Austrian Observer. Things are very different here from elsewhere : for instance, it is supposed they possess here the most complete veneration for Met ternich, and hold as gospel the articles Which he dictates to Genty and Pilat : quite the contrary— tTOrn my intimacy with several distinguished fami lies, I do not hesitate to say, that an opposition, ,ecret, but violent, is existing here against that Mi nister. As lon g as the Emperor Francis shall live he will be respected, and, consequently, his Mini tter w ill, to a certain extent, be supported; but utter his death Metternich's reign will not endure f o r a day. The successor to the throne is no friend of the Ministers ; and thoughe latter, w since the decline of the Emperor's health, fias changed his ton e towards the so n, I do not believe that the good will is returned. Hio uncle will lik ew ii e assist in him independent, for they'h ave grave rendering ca uses of complaint ag ainst we may therefore before long look IVletternich, and. for an entire chan ge in the Austrian policy. But the thing which surprises me most Is the en . t;,.,Atened state of the superior ranks of society here. A person of high station remarked to me onl y two days ago, " Instead of declaiming agai nst the use of Greece, and thus, as it were, m rkangus.for the h patrons m of all that is base and detestable, etternie ought to have done all that he could to encourage the exertions of that State, by which a new empire in the East would have been brought to light, f tl l ia: mio-ht have been the means of remedying our a position with respect to Russia. Greece, by Austria, would give us in Europe a regenera.ted preporlaer ance, which at present we have so madly lost." This language, in the mouth Of a Magnate of Hun gary, is worthy of remark ; and it k pleasant to observe, that in spite of his police and his Austrian Observer, Metternich cannot produce entire darkness. The Austrian Cabinet begin to have a secret pre -,.entlment. that its idleness, or as Metternich calls it, its stability, may tend to place Austria entirely in the back ground : it is with this impression that the Minister has ordered the concentration- of - some of the troops in Hungary and in Gallicia; bathe thinks to disguise these movements by:: those of the camp of Traiskirchen, near Vienna. When he is asked what the march of this regiment or. of that portends; his answer is, that it is quite by mistake that that troop was put under marchin g orders, These _ sub terfuges, however, mark somcwhat of nperan mated diploinacy. With respect to Russia, this Minister kith many of their troops as he pleases, and pnldisheiall sorts of mishaps on their account.. • It is at the change of Vienna Metternich delivers his battle, an d always with immense loss to the Russian army. You can form no idea of the quantity of cannon and corn. redoubts that this cunning fellow has taken without once quitting his cabinet. LISBON, SEPT. I B.—( Private Correspondence.)— The two agents whom Don Miguel has sent to Rome to solicit the annulling of the affiance .cele brated at Vienna-with Donna Maria H., his niece, quitted hence three days ago; their mission is founded on the vote of the Msembly of the three orders, to the effect that-- the 41ccesSion to the throne ought speedily to be settled. The infant has declared on this head, in the presence of his whole Court, that he would rather be cut in pieces than marry his 'niece. TOULON, SEPT. 22.

What is remarkable is, thatitinsinuates - that the Prime Mi nister has not yielded to.a personal opinion in allow ing the Act for the abrogation of the Test Oath to pass. - The same Journal contains a letter from the Duke of Newcastle to Lord, Kenyon, which is a genuine manifesto of the Protestant Ascendancy. against the Catholics. His Grace declares, in the most energetic terms, that the English Government takes no lead. in this question, but waits for the na tion to make a beginning. He wishes that all who are true -Protestants in England should instantly rise to support the Crown; in taking away from the -Catholics all those privileges which they haVe oh tallied by successive concessions, and to destroy every thing in the British Empire that goes by the name of Convent, Jesuit, or Monk, of whatsoever kind it may be. fie declares that England is in the , greatest danger, if decisive measures are not in stantly taken ; from all which we may learn that the English Government is not yet free from the em barrassments of the Catholic Question. _ (From the Journal des Debat.s of Sunday.) PARIS, SEPT. 28.---We find in L' Anti de la Re ligion et du Roi the following article :—Different re ports have been in circulation as to an answer rela tive to the memory of the Bishops. The Pope has not improved the representations of the Bishops, but a letter of the Cardinal Secretary of State states that his Holiness; without an express decision as to tile foundation of the affair, considers that the Bishops may refer to the known piety of the King. It is seid that the Prelates at Paris have assembled to deliberate on this despatch, and that the unani mous opinion has been to defer it. The conduct of the Bishops, tinder these circumstances, appears worthy of their zeal and their wisdom. They insist on the defence of their rights, and they can yield themselves to the suggestions which the rigours of the times and the voice of authority demand.— Thus they sufficiently - prove that no spirit of oppo sition has guided their proceeding,s, and they ac quire new claims to the esteem and gratitude of the faithful. In fine, - 'a just subject of joy is the fact that the minor seminaries are sacred from a de- ' struction which appeared inconvenient, and wilich would have been a calamity to all the dioceses, and a subject of triumph fo the enemies of religion. We consider as authentic the news we have just rend; and feel: a •' . lis'•elY satisfaction -in repeating it: 'lf is well - known•thdt in the - Ordinance of the 16th `of . there'svac nothing contrary to . the legitimate rights of episcopacy,' and which no one will accuse the Holy See - of having compromised by an impru &tent and precipitate decision. We may at present judge what reliance we can place on the mad decla mations of those Missionaries without mission, who exclaimed perpetually that religion was about to be subverted, and who had founded guilty hopes on the simplicity—perhaps the little enlightened zeal of their readers. Thus our presages have been realis ed—thus our doctrines and those of all the-defenders of the rights of the Throne, and the fundamental law, are confirmed. Letters from Marseilles, of the .21st September, state " that two brigs of war, arrived at Toulon, have brought letters from the Morea, dated 3d Sept. written by the Captains of the transport vessels to their- owners. There are some of them who sup pose they will have to remain five months longer in the service of the State, anti require provisions to be sent them, the country not being in a state to fur nish the necessary supplies for the sea service. The supplies for the army may be procured, but at high prices. " The marine continues its purchases of salt provi sions and biscuit. They continue to embark sup plies for the artillery encampment, and hospital. " The third expedition consisting of the brigades of General Schneider, which set out from Toulon on the 2d of September, was met on the 11th, off Sicily, with a favourable wind." • LISBON PAPERS. LISBON, SEPT. 15.—The King, as Commander in-Chief of the Army, determines that all Officers of that Army, and those returned from beyond the sea, who, up to the 12th of July, were employed in the service, or in commission without being employed in any of the corps of the Army, or who belong to the class of Officers without employment, or to corps from which they were for some reason.or other absent, are to show to the Generals of the respective . provinces, within twenty days from the date of the present order, in what situation they were irom the 17th May up to. the said 12th July, this year, prov ing that they had not joined the Rebels; with the assurance that all those who. shall not have complied with this order within the • time above specified, with the exception of those who were absent from the kingdom with leave, shall be immediately struck out of the list of the army as deserters. his Ma jesty orders, that the Generals of the Provinces, as .soon as the above teem of 20 days is expired, shall send by the next post to the Chief of the Staff of the Army, all the declarations which shall have been sent to them in consequence of this order. • SEPTENPEk.t 19.—His Majesty, as Commander in-Chief of th e A rmy, h as ordered another depot for prisoners to be established in the Castle of St. Philip, at Setubal, besides that already established yeniche and Cascaes.—Lisbon Gazette, Sept. 21.

'23, MEETINGS IN IRELAND. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESNMOENT.) CLONMIL, SUNDAY, SEPT..B 7 The inhabitants of this town and neighbourhood have been quite busy - during the week making dresses and other necessary preparations for the meeting which takes 'place this day in . ClogheeM Those preparationS were not confined to the, .lower classes, for several of the respectable householders purposed' joining in them ; and what has given room for much disaffection, is the liberality: which has on this,oeca sion been evinced by the proprietors of the two breweries in this town; one firm, Messrs. Greer and Murphy; had given permission to the carpent ers employed in their concern to erect a platform, capable of accommodating a full, band of amateurs, which was to lead the Clonmel party, and also gave their men liberty to join the procession; they fur ther added to the - purchasing of jackets, &e. for the entire of the men in their employment. - At the other firm the proprietors, Morton, Lane, and Co., were equally anxious. Some people say that the former exhibited this act of liberality to insure the custom of the Catholics, and that it did not arise from any pure. or patriotic motive, they being Quakers, and as such looked on as all the other Quakers of this town are, the most bigoted and self-interested sect in it. The latter firm are only commencing 'business, they are Protestants; one of them, Lane, who is a native of Cork, is a really liberal and goO - d man; while in Cork all his family were looked on as the first_ in coming forward on every charitable and liberal occasion. Thus, you perceive, that had the:Catholics acted ,on the same principle as the' Quakers of this town do, namely, dealing with: each other, they would 'he here anti .elsewhere the most wealthyla Ireland: The Dub-. lin mail, which arrived here yesterday, brought the sad tidings that the Catholic Association were re solved not to,sanction these meetings—not that they dreaded any thing bad may result from them, but in order to allay the erroneous idea with which the Orangemen thought fit to construe those meetings. This news struck panic into many a bold heart, and it was requisite for the Clergy to exert themselves in order to prevent them from going to Clogheen ; they had no easy task to perform, and many said they would go after all. The Catholic Clergy found it further necessary to be on the alert this morning, and as early as six o'clock there was to be seen in the different streets the Clergy exhorting the people to turn back, for by this time many had made their appearance in town from Carrick, a distance of 1 2 miles, as well as from the parish of Poorstown, &c. and by nine o'clock the town exhibited a thronged appearance, and many a sad heart was returning. Most of the Haze men had their wives or daughters behind them, and they were all well dressed; some even went so far as to stick feathers in their caps and hats. Though the people were much chagrined at this disappointment, yet they could not think of going against the advice of the Catholic Association or their Clergy. There would, I feel certain, be not less than 5,000 from this town alone go to Clog been, a distance of thirteen miles, so that some of the people, to return the same day, would have travelled from 20 to 40 miles; the people had gone, from other parts where there was not so speedy a communication. Many of the inhabi tants had to use their influence with the Clergy, and at the different chapels here they were un ceasing in their lectures; so that I think we are now cured of our meetings. From whati have heard of the Clogheen meeting there cannot, after all, be less than .50 or 60,000 people assembled there this day ; but I believe that will end their meetings here. I shall, in my next, send you an account. You will excuse this scrawl—l write to save the post. . -,.. ... ce.rib+,o ,.:.....„..„,,,,....,.. • FEVER AT GIBRALTAR. The following are extracts of letters from the Agent to Lloyd's at Gibraltar : GIBRALTAR, SEPT. 8.---On the 4th inst. I ad dressed you by the Duke of York steamer; amongst other things mentioning a report being circulated in the town of prevalence of yellow fever. It now ap pears that there is considerable foundation for it, or at all events that a very bad fever prevails. The Board of Health at Cadiz having insisted on the neighbours placing a cordon of observation, it was adopted on the .sth, and in the course of that day for the first time, a fever of a suspicious nature, was declared here to exist, and foul bills of health were issued, since which time precautions are being taken. The cases, as far as I can ascertain (no official return being published), are few, not exceeding 40 in the whole, since the commencement of which there are about 12 deaths. Our summer has been unusually mild, and to-day we have not so much alarm ; so that I trust the evil will be checked. " Trade and every kind of business are at a stand, and all those who have not passed the fever in former years are leaving the town for the Bay of Neutral Ground. " The following proclamation bus just issued for closing the places of public worship and courts of justice : " ' Whereas it appears that some cases of fever, of a suspicious nature, have occurred. His Excellency the Lieutenant-Governor trusts, that by the prompt measures which have already been taken, the disease will be prevented from spreading. His Excellency earnestly calls upon the inhabitants of every class to co-operate in the exertions of Government towards the above end, which lie trusts will in a short time effect the re-establishment of the general health. " Given at Gibraltar, this 6th day of September, 1828. "' GEORGE DON, Gen. and Lient -Goy.' '‘ NOTICE. " In the present exigency, his Excellency the Lieutenant-Governor deems it expedient to direct, that places of worship of all persuasions, and the courts of justice, be closed. His Excellency trusts that any temporary inconvenience that may result from this measure will be amply compensated by hastening the restoration of the public health. (By command) " 'S. B.CHAPMAN, Civil Sec. " Se - ptember B.' " GIBRALTAR, SEPT. 11.—From some unac countable cause there has been no report of the public health published here, When, in fact, it is no torious that the yellow feverhas prevailed-for several. days, which omission gives rise to vague and exag-, gerated rumours, and may be the means of attaching unnecessary suspicion to us on future occasions in other ports. " By a close inquiry I find that the actual number of cases now on the list is 140 (including the mili tary), of which 31 are dangerous, 51 slight, and 22 convalescent. - The fever has not spread to any great extent, and the cases have not increased so rapidly as on former occasions, which may be attributed to the peculiar mildness of the summer." The following is an extract of a private letter : " GIBRALTAR, SEPT. mention with great pain that Government has come to a resolution of declaring that a bad fever exists in the garrison, private opinion consequently is quite superthionp. Very energetic measures are now using to put it down (supposing it to exist), and we cannot doubt of theit complete 'success. Nevertheless, the evil has been done by a complete stoppage to our trade, and all the concomitant mischief. For the twenty fotw hours previous to nine o'clock this morning, one patient only was admitted in the Hospital. Numerous of our friends and Leighbours haVe gone off (not dead, but run away), and in short the panic is perfect. We of course remain: if it is the fever, we hold ourselves to be indigenous to it : if it is not, we console ourselves with not having abandoned the interests of our friends. The 12th Regiment is encamped in the neutral ground, quite clear of the rock, and under any circumstances cannot be af fected. A suspicious ease of a sergeant of that regiment cawed it to be encamped." LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 1, MS. The Gazette de France affirms that Don MIGUEL is most anxious to marry his niece DONNA MARIA DA GLORIA, and that the only object of Lord STRANGFORD'S mission to Rio de Janeiro is to reconcile Don MIGUEL with Don PEDRO, and to remove all further obstacles to the match. The news from Bucharest states, that the Russians in Wallachia are strong enough to resume the offensive ; all fear of a further irruption of the Turks, adds the Gazette de France, has ceased. The Messager des Charnbres contradicts the report that a son of Lord HEY TESBURY had arrived in Paris, with news un favourable to the Russians. The last Lisbon Papers are barren of intelli gence, further than that the proscriptions and tyranny of DON MIGUEL still continue. The present prisons, it seems, are not sufficiently ca pacious for his numerous victims, another depot, therefore, (what a courteous term for a dungeon) has been ordered to be established for their ex press accommodation. The private letters, received from Lisbon by the mail this morning, bring accounts that Don MIGUEL has been fired at by one of his officers, but the pistol missed him, and the ' unfortunate officer was immediately arrested. Sydney Papers (New South Wales) have been received at the North and South American Coffee-house to the 24th of May, and from Hobart Town of the 3d of the same month, per the Albion, Capt. PROCTOR. The fol lowing are the only articles worth extracting : The disbursements of the Colony are stated to be, for the year 1827, 85,4301. 17s. 5d., and, deducting various items, which would be rendered either useless or inexpe dient, by means of a poll-tax recommended, viz.:-- Colonial Treasurer's Department £1,537 Colonial Audit Office 598 Naval Officers' Department Department of Customs 3,859 Collector of Internal Revenues Surveyor of Distilleries Government Slaughter House lO3 Mineral Surveyor Government Garden 329 Colonial Store 270 Civil Engineer 6,851 • Convict Establishments Naval 1,754 Military Prisoners ... 902 £25,375 Will leave 60,0551. for the Officers and Clerks ; and great complaints are made that there are scores of gentlemen, of equal and superior talents, who would be happy to take their places at half the expence. It is stated that the num ber of convicts employed by the settlers are 25,000, and that a poll-tax of 309. per man, would produce 37,0001. ; and should then only want about 30,0001. for the expence of the Colony. SYDNEY MARKETS, MAY 15.—There was an unusual demand fur maize at this morning's market, and this de scription of grain rose about ls. per cwt. Bushel Wheat is also obtaining higher prices. Flour seems likely - to ad vance; average price of Wheat, 9s. per bushel; Maize, 9s. 6d. ; fine Flour, 225. per cwt. Notwithstanding the continued scarcity of money, house ►•ents are getting dearer. • The Government have no disposable hands in the Bar ruts. Owing to the long interval since we had a prison ship, the number in the prisoners' barracks are reduced to 500, the whole of which are in the employment of the Crown. A great deal of rain has fallen in Argyle, as well as at Sydney. An extraordinary attempt to escape from the. Colony had been made by an individual who had hitherto carried on an extensive retail business in Pitt street, and whose debts amount to 6,000/. or 7,000/. Extract of a Private Letter, posted at the North and South American Coffee-house this morning : LioNntia.ss, Auc. I.—We learn that the Treaty of Peace between the Guatemalians and San Salvadorians has been broken off, and the war has again commenced. The contending parties are reported to be more opposed to each other." The London University opens this day. Hav ing survived the blasts of faction, the side winds of ridicule, and still worse, the disheartening calms of indifference ; the noble ship has gained a port, and now r id es t r i um phantly in harbour. This is a glorious result; but where is the pilot— where the'-Palintirus, who guided the vessel on her course ? He is, we are concerned to state, u nwell; willing, but unable to witness the triumph w hich-his own skill has achieved. His spirit, how ever, will still pervade the assembly ;-4hat spirit, which, whatever might be the difficulties it had t o encounter, never yet found one too vast for its own transcendant energies to surmount. The London Uni - versity is one only of Mr. BROUGHAM'S claims on the present age and on posterity. That very respectable, consistent, and pros perous Journal, the New Times, has this day filled nearly a column with its usual brilliant in vectives against the " Sun," for presuming;to say one word in opposition to the supremacy of Earl ELDON. It wishes to abuse him with its praise exclusively ! We shall not imitate our eloquent cotemporary in the style of its language on this occasion, (having less acquaintance with pot- house diatribes than itself,) but shall .simply ask, how it is, that a Journal, which, some few months since, was among the staunchest sup porters of Free Trade, now presumes to come forward and commend its most determined foe ; how it is, that the violent defender of the living CANNING now tramples upon his dead ashes; how it is, that the supporter of Messrs. flus xissoN and GRANT now discovers that they are worthy alone of its abuse ; and, stranger still, how it is, that a Paper, which—with a happy reck lessness of purpose-;.-has claimed- acquaintance with every party, and been kicked off in turn by all ; which crouches to power like a spaniel; which, in consistency, is rivalled• only by Cos R ETT, ,in gentility by HUNT, and in the, cap tivating graces .of style by the ; Duke NEW CASTLE ; which set out in its career with a - Traud on the old Times, and has since continued it with apostacy—we simply ask, we repeat, how it is that a Paper thus variously and pectiliarly distinguished, presumes to come forward and demand that it shall be even mentioned without a blush. Tastes differ, says some sage, and if this Journal, from a strong instinctive sympa thy, prefers to be pre-eminent in apostacy rather than to be fifth-rate in a good cause ; it has surely no right to bedaub its contemporaries merely because less ambitious of notOriety,, they prefer the plain straight-forward path of honour. Let the New Times, to borrow an apt but fami liar phrase, " keep its own side the road," or skiilk silently along the lanes and cross-roads of poli tics—let it content itself with this, and We shall never think it worth our while to step aside from the broad highway to chastise the vagrant renegade. If, however, it still perseveres in be daubing us with its abuse, it can but expect in turn that we shall do the amplest justice to its character. TILT FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.) CITY, TWELVEo ' Cr.oc r. The general aspect of the British Securities has been rather heavy. this morning, and money does not seem to be so great a drug as it has been. The continued rise in the Corn-market has had the effect of causing a spirit of speculation in those article s likely to be operated upon in connection with Wheat; for instance, East India Rice, which was Unsaleable at 11s. some time wince, 21s. has now beeri refused.; the article of Rum is also higher.. The November ac count opened to-day, and is fixed for the 27th ; in the course of the day some business has been doing in it. Consols opened at 86i for this account, and 86i 7 for next time, since which the market has been less firm, and receded to 86i for both periods; the present price is 868 4 for time and money; the Commissioners purchased at 86i. India Stock is rather lower, having fallen from 242 4 to 239 40. India ponds are 85 88 ; Exchequer Bills, 71 3 pm. The Foreign Funds are in an idle state, and scarce any business has been transacted ; Brazilian Bonds are 62/ 34 ex. di r. ; Portuguese, 56i 71; Danish, 62 ex. div.; Russian, 93 ; Greek, 19 20 ; and Mexican, 6 per Cent., 381 91.
