The Funds te-play were not so depressed, owing
chiefly to the more favourable tendency of the
bullion movement. The improvement in Consols
is about per cent., the following being the closing
prices :-For Money, ,01 to 901, and for the
Account, 901 to 911-. The New Three per Cents.
closed at 919- to 911.

The Manchester Market was rather better, and
the advance in Yirns since Friday may be set down
at to id._ - - -

In the General Produce Markets a moderate
business continues to be transacted, at about pre-
vious rates.

The Grain Trade continues very dull, and lower
prices aro aciepted for all descriptions of Bread-
stuffs. ,At all the Markets held today there was
very little business done, and prices of Wheat
may be quoted at a decline of 2s to 3s per quarter.
The Committee of Mexican Bondholders have
received advices from Mr. Whitehead, dated tne
2nd inst. The Estandarte the offi3ial journal of
the capital) of the 13th July last, publishes the
eir.aular order of the Minister of Finance, dated
25th June, on the receipt of which by the Custom-
houses, the suspension of payments was to cease
as regards the foreign bondholders and Convention
creditors, with a proviso, however, that the
Government anticipations, to the amount, it was
said, of $205,000 still in circulation, were to be
satisfied out of the duties. According to this, the
revenues of the dividend fund would again be at the
disposal of the bondholders about the beginning
of July last, burthened with a liability of about
$51,000. The La Plata, however, brings no remit-
tance yet, for which various reasons are given.
The $22,000 in the hands of the agents in Colima
had safely arrived in Manzanilla, for shipment to
the Bank of England, via Panama. The Republic
was tranquil, and the difficulties with Spain
appeared for the moment to be the chief subject of
excitement there.
Our last adVices from Bourdeaux state that the
wine districts are in a very satisfactory condition,
and that most abundant vintages will be secured.
A correspondent writing from Kingston, C. W.,
on thel7th inst., states that the crops are abundant
and no blight whatever—''l see people daily, perhaps
from 50 to 100 miles round. The merchants at the
other side of the lakes say that the weevil is gene-
ral amongst the wheat; but it is well known to all
in Canada that the Chielgo weevil with two legs
who suffered so awfully by money losses last year,
will find it difficult to decoy the staff of life this
season.'

The following are the latest quotations of Foreign
Exchanges :—Amsterdam, short-, 11 161 to 11. 17 ;
do. three months, 11. 19 to 11 193; Rotterdam,
do , 11 19 to 11 193 ; 'Antwerp, do., 25 35 to
25 40; Brussels, do, 25 35 to 25 40; Hamburgh,
do., 13 it to 13 8; Paris, short, 25 20 to 25 25;
do., three months, 25 573 to 25 62; Marseilles, do..
25 60 to 25 65 ; Frankfort, do., 119 i to 119 a ;
Vienna, do., 10 30 to 10 33 ; Trieste, do , 10 31 to
10 34; St. Petersburg, do., 36: to 363; Madrid,
181 to 49.
It is satisfactory to remark, that the recent
extraordinarily heavy shipments of silver to the
East have not prevented t!.-.e retention here of a
great mass of newly imported gold. The imme-
diate pressure of the silver drain is at present
materially mitigated, and it is estimated that the
total remittances by the Indus, on the 4th inst,
will not exceed 500,0001 to 600,0001. The last
packet, it will be remembered, took 1,095,014/.
The reason of this satisfactory change is a diminu-
tion in the orders from India to ship silver thither,
consequent. probably, upon the paralysed state
of trade in Indian exports. Meanwhile, the arrival
of the steamer La Plata furnishes a large portion
of the silver required for the following packet of
the 20th inst., and the withdrawals of the metal
from the Continent will be proportionately dimin-
ished. The steamer Ben\ iek has brought 48,500
half imperials, or about 38.8001, from St. Peters-
burgh. H.M.S. Trincomalee has also brought a
quantity of specie and bullion (silver) from the
Pacific.
