THE PROPOSED EXPEDITION UNDER

GENERAL FLORES.

On Thursday evening last Mr. Forsayth, the prin-
cipal searcher of the Customs, accompanied by other
officers, boarded the ship Glenelg, lying off Graves-
end, and, after inspection, seized her for a contem-
plated breach of the Foreign Enlistment and Equip-
ment Act ; and yesterday morning he, also upon the
same grounds, seized the Monarch and Neptune,
steam-vessels, lying in the East India Docks, Black-
walL
It is under.•tood that all the three vessels form
part of an expedition which is being secretly fitted
out in this country with the intention, by hostile
means, to effect a revolution of government in a
state of South America with which we are on terms
of peace and friendship. When the Glenelg was
seized there had just been received on board 250 men,
under pretence of their being emigrants, but who, it
is understood, are intended to serve as soldiers or

marines.
The Glenelg is a fine ship of 1,200 tons, and was
heretofore employed in the East India trade ; and the
Monarch and Neptune are steamers of a large class,
particularly the former, until recently they were
the property of the General Steam Navigation
Company. The Monarch was in the Leith trade,
and the Neptune plied between London and Ham-
burgh.
It is said that Mr. Forsayth is in possession of in-
formation concerning them that leaves no doubt of
all three vessels being ultimately condemned as for-
feited to the Crown.

COMMERCIAL 8f MARKETS.
MONEY MARKET & CITY INTELLIGENCE.
Not only do the accounts of financial affairs come
extremely unfavourable from the Paris Bourse, but from
various parts of Germany. Dealers, speculators, and holder
of stocks and shares, appear to be all sellers equally at
Vienna, Berlin, Frankfort, and Paris. From Frankfort
it is stated that all kinds of securities had fallen in value.
The immediate occasion of the panic there, for panic it was,
is referred to the intelligence of the compulsory annexation
of Cracow to the Austrian empire. Masses of securities and
railway shares were thrown upon the market'forthwith. It
was calculated, however that a re-action might be expected
when people recovered from the first surprise of such an en-
expected event. It is observed in the Gazette de Co-
logne, which relates the incidents of these movements
at Frankfort, that, in fact, the Cracow affair, how-
ever justly the subject of reprobation, is not of
a nature to disturb the general peace. France and England,
it is observed, may refuse their assent to the usurpation de-
cree by the three powers; but in the actual state and partial
disruption of the friendly relations betwixt them, arising out
of the Spanish marriages, it is not probable that they will
interfere, actively, to prevent the three absolute courts from
" accomplishing this last act of the Polish drama"
The funds are without movement this morning, but heavy.
Consols are quoted 941 to 1 for money and account. Ex-
chequer Bills 84. to Ils. premium.
In the foreign market it is almost a dies non in respect of
business. Mexican are called 211 to 2. Spanish Fives,
251 to 1 • the Threes, 361 ton. Portuguese, 36 to 8.
The
Bank of England averages for the week ending the
14th instant, show, as compared with those of the week
before, an increase of bullion of 98,2471., the gross amount
in band being 14,848,7531. ; an increase of public deposits of
1,348,9941., the amount being 6,777,7771. ; a decrease of pri•
vete or other deposits of 286,2021.. the average amount in
hand, 7,995,4221. ; an increase of securities of 372,8961., the
average amount. 12,525,9051. ; a decrease of active circu-
lation of 561,3051.
The small incr., sae in the rtock of coin would be attri-
butable, not to any importation of gold or silver, but
• to the return of so much from the country districts, and from
• Ireland probably, where before distributed as drawn from the
bank, during the preceding six weeks, the returns of
which showed • regular egress of hard money into circulation
, if not for export, to the extent in the whole of not far from
one and three-quarter millions. It will be seen that the active
note circulation was rather largely in decline. This would
mainly arise from the extraordinary increase of govern-
. ment payments figuring under the head of public deposits.
