THE FUNDS.

The intelligence from America has not had any effect on
the British market up to the present time.
Consols, which left off yesterday 924 1- for the Account,
opened at the same price, owing to the still prevailing
opinion that a war with the United States will not take

place.

HALF-PAST ONE.

The general topic of conversation this morning in the
City entirely relates to the intelligence from America.
Those who are well-informed in American affairs think that
these warlike preparations are only adopted in case of need,
and eventually that there will be no war between this coun-
try and the United States. It was also the prevailing
opinion at Washington, that it would bo settled without
having recourse to arms.
The British Funds _instead of being heavy ,and re-
ceding, as was generally expected in the early, part of the
morning, continue at 92/ both for Money and, the Ac-
count; Exchequer Bills, 53 55;_ India Bdnds, nothing
done ; Bank Stock, 200 201 ; India Stock, 252 254.
