Saturday was a holiday at the Bank, and the
Stock Exchange hawing been also shut, the transac-
tions in the fund. were wholly confined-to private
bargains, very few in number, anti presenting co
variation on the plicis of several days preceding.
Consols appear fixed at 801 10 4, with a continua-
tion of about 2 per cent. for the October account.
Wednesday next is settling-day at the Stock
Exchange fur the time-bargains, but the busine►s
has been on so small a scale, and the fluctuations
are so limited, that there is no prospect of a varia-
tion in price either way being produced by the set-
tlement.
In the foreioi political circles a ransom' has
been for some time current, and has latterly
acquired greater consistency, that measures are
secretly taking for promoting the union of Spain
and Portugal as one kingdom. An event more
favourable to the maintenance of constitutional
liberty in Europe could scarcely occur ; and we
hear that there is less difficulty to be apprehended
from the opposition of the leading political chsrac•
ten of both countries, than, in a cape involving so
much national feeling, might be anticipated. What
has mainly assisted to secure the good will of Por-
tugal to the incorporation is, the assurance that the
sovereignty, at the death of FERDINAND, will be
conferred on the House of Braganza. We shall
watch this moat interesting measure in its progress,
and communicate all the information in our power.

THE LUTINE FRIGATE.-40 answer has been
received by the underwriters at Lloyd's Coffee-
house from the Dutch Government, which has
excited some surprise. It regards the Latine
frigate, which, as has been stated in the news.
papers, was long since wrecked on the coast of
Holland, with half a million of specie on hoard,
intended for Prussia. Not a soul survived, nor was
it know!' what had become of the frigate until re-
cently, when she was found buried in the sand on
the Dutch coast. The British Government, which
sent the specie as a subsidy to Prussia, insured at
LLOYD'S, and, in due course, received the money
on proof of the• loss. the insurers, therefore, or
such of them as are alive, applied a short time
since to the Deitch Government, for permission to
take the specie out of the wreck of the Lviisof•
The answer obtained, though very courteous, is by
no means satisfactory upon any account; it is this,
that as the Lartine was wrecked pending a war with
Holland, the property of course became Dutch,
end no restoration can therefore be made. Hid the
disaster occurred while peace existed, the Dotch
Government would have been most ready to afford
every facility for the recovery of the specie Isom the
wreck.

His Excellency the Lord Lieutenant having anp
pointed the flat inst. for discontinuing the relief
hitherto afforded, the Commissioners appointed by
his Excellency will not receive any epplicalisM
after that day.—(Dieblin Murrains Post.)
A paragraph has been copied from the Dublin
papers into I of our English journals, stating
that " great distress and dissatisfaction preteils
amongst the numerous tenantry of the estates tif.the
Earl FITZWILLIAM, in the comity of Wicklow, in
consequence of the war rents being demanded and
enforced. That during the war the rents were ex-
tremely moderate, and while times held up, bts
Lordship's tenantry were amongst the happiest iii
Ireland ; but that now, it was a fact too notorious
to require proof or illustration, that a rent, which
allowed a man to live luxuriously six or seven years
ago, scarcely leave. him a shred or a morsel iii these
times, es with the prices and markets of 1828, they
have to pay the rents of 1815. The income of
56.000 Fitxwilliana acres, is said to be 36,0001.
•

• We have the best authority for stating, in•conlre-
diction to the above paragraph, that the tenants,of
the Earl FITEWILLI All. to the couuty of Wicklow,
are perfectly quiet, and so tar leans experiencing a
portion of that distress which so unfortunately per-
vades some other parts of Ireland, it is a fact, that
they have •pot meowed one shilling of the 1404tral•
subscription ridged fur the distressed Irish; this goes
Au to invalidate that part of die statement in the
Irish papers: as fot the remainder, we.caduot far
one.woment suppose, that the same priociple which
actuated Lord FITZWILLIAM to reduce the remol
of his English estates, would not parruit his Putt
tenantry to be left to struggle with.the depre.siois
of the times, without relief. We might.eliter 'tato
the mode by which Irish property is let, arid haww'
entirely it differs from the manner of this countiy.
did it appear necessary, and we might observe, that
if any abatement of rent is requisite, ,it ts•oot t,
those persons (stated to have hitherto lived iii.lisx-
ury) who have their holdings direedy milder his
Lordship, but to those poorer individuals who lire
sub-tenants, and over whom his Lordship can have
neither the power to control or relieve.—f Doncaster
Gazette.)
