The Funds experienced, yesterday, a favowahle
change. the Onunirm, which had beets for seam.
days down to premium, lett off at 1. and the otter
classes lose in proportion. Such has been, in the
money market, the cleft of the triumph of &oft -
taste, and the recent disasters of our Allies upon
the Continent, the Speculators in the Funds con-
clu.!ing that no course now remains for the
country to pnrsue, but to make peace. We
may, no ilaubt, as well as Prussia er Sweden.
have a peace with France. But what rational hope
can be entertained of obtaining. at the present mo-
ment, a just and honourable peace; And any other
would be worse than war. We should not he sur-

A letter received yesterday, from Deal, says—

The Captain of another vessel, (a smuggler alt.i),
who left Calais at twelve o'clock last night, so-
lemnly declares, that he saw the city most splen-
didly illuminated, and that he was a sv:tne,s as the
universal j.iy which pervaded all ranks of people in
etaserairace of the a'oove intelligence, which came
tom Paris, on Monday evening, and that
tie saw :he Messenger surrounded by vast multi-

General Ema csroau is determined to try the question
to the nrmns . If the Privy Council do not speedily
taken tha question into their serious consideration,
and allow the General to have it solemnly argued
before them, he F. determined to bring it before Par.
lianitun. The defence set up by Sir HO5ll Poe-
ts Are k, that when he was appointed to the Expe-
dition, Lord BARHAM was First Lord of the
Admiralty, and his Lordship promised him that he
should be promoted to a Commodore, and that he
would send his Commission after him, but which
was neglected to be done. On these grounds,
Sir Hous Poe u se, we understand, expects to have
his commission antedated as a Commodore.

A Gottenburgh Mail arrived, yesterday, with
letters and papers to the 27th last. A Captain ar-
rived in that city, on the 25th„ from Pillau, brought
an account of the capture of Koningsberg, and that
the French bad arrived at Labiatt, and sent a strong
column against Pillau, where it arrived on the 16;12.
On the 13th last, the King of SWIMS!t declared the
armistice at an end, and on the 18th and 19th, be
reviewed the Prussian troops in Pomerania, and ex-
horted them to fight with fidelity and valour for
their ',Mg and country.

Sir Aarnua \Vat ts.star last night obtained

to be a renewal, with some modifications, of the
Bill passed by the Itish Parliament. in 1796,
previous to the breaking out ot the rebellion. The
present is a precautionary measure; no aymptoms
of a teudency tu disturbance having recently mani-
fested themselves in that part of the United King-
dom.

We understand that the Pension of her Royal

The Address unanimously voted at the meeting
at Morpeth, on the 10th ult. has been transmitted
to Lo d Howlett, by the Chairman, Sir Joni( Es.
wags Swimsuits'. The highly respedable signa-
tures of Freeholders that have since been added to
it, during the ft days allotted for that purpose, by
the Resolutions of the meeting, are so numerous,
that it would far exceed the limits of a newspaper to
insert them at length. and we conceive the seledioa

On Sund,y se'nnigist, Mr. Fes,. a converted Jew,
preached in Lady GI. 11140 ICH el chapel, in the city
of Catlisle. In the afternoon he preached io the
methodist chapel ; and in the evening. on account
of the largeness of the audience, he preached, in
the yard belonging to the said chapel. Mr. Fes!
has visited Scntiand, by desire of the Missionary
Ssciety of London. to preach. and coiled money
for spreading the goapel among the Jews and Hea-
thens, and to support Jews who may embrace
Christianity. when deprived of intercoarse with
their hrethren.—The decree made by the Jews,
above 1700 years ago, that if any man confes-
sed that Jesus is the Messiah he should be put out
of the Synagogue, is still in force ; on account of
which, many of the Jews have suffered considerable
hardships ; they being excluded from all the bene-
fits resulting from the Jewish society, and being in-
capable of ga,.iiing a livelihood, either from agricul-
ture or any mercantile art, are left entirely destitute.
The Missionary Society in consequence have in con.
tempiation, to establish a manufactory in London,
for the employment of Jews of both sexes and of all
ages ; which will be a closiderahle relief, and keep
them from being a burden to the community.
