The following are extracts from the French papers :

The Sentinelle des Pyrenees has various accounts from the
frontiers of Spain. A letter from Valcarlos of the Ist of
March says that Saarsfield intends to march at the same time
towards Estella and the valley of the Bastan ; for which pur-
pose he is endeavouring to assemble as great a number of
troops as possible.
A muleteer from Pampeluna says that on the 27th there
was an engagement between that place and Estella, and that
the Carlists were driven back to the latter town. Great com-
plaints are made of the want of discipline in the troops. Some
soldiers of the Regiment of Cordova forced their way, in open
day, into a grocer's shop, which they plundered.
General Conrad has been unable to obtain means of con-
veyance for the clothing which is deposited at Valcarlos. He
is the more vexed at this, because the soldiers of the Legion
persist in doubting that this clothing has really been sent,
and think that the statement is only a stratagem of their
commander.

It is also said that Saarsfield has had the Governor of Pam-
peluna arrested and thrown into prison. The mail from that
city, being obliged to make a great circuit, did not arrive
yesterday evening.
IssaTsou, FEB. 28.—" I hear that, since the 24th, eighteen
Carlist battalions, command by Don Sebastian and Villareal,
have arrived-in the neighbourhood of Pampeluna. They are
said to be well disposed to oppose the intended movements of
General Saarsfield.

" The Christino General has also received a reinforcement
of 3,500 men. An action is expected to take place shortly."

BOURSE, HALF-PAST FOUR.—The coupon of the Five per
Cents. was taken off to-day, and little business done in the
Threes. The general opinion on the Bourse was, that the
Disjunction Bill would be carried by a majority of 50 votes,
so that it was not anticipated that its adoption would produce
the least effect on the funds. The shares of the St. Germain
railroad rose considerably.

The Spanish Actives remained pretty firm, notwithstanding
a report circulated by the Carlists, that a division of 8,000 in-
surgents had crossed the Ebro and entered Castile.

Brussels and German Papers have been received, but
their contents are of no political interest. Advices from
Alexandria announce the relations between the SULTAN
and MEHEMET ALI as more friendly than usual. The
birth-day of the SULTAN, for the first time during the last
ten years, was recently celebrated with great pomp in the
capital of Egypt.

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

TWELVE O'CLOCK.

Our arrivals this morning are the French and Ostend Mails, and
Ship Letters from Demerara, Honduras, Calcutta, of the 9th Oc-
tober ; and Cape of Good Hope, 19th December.
From the Cape of Good Hope Papers, to the Bth January, we
subjoin the following extracts :
" FRONTIER.—By the last post we hear nothing of hostile
inroads, or Caffre depredations ; and we trust that the Disposer of
Events will grant us that " peace in our time" which every en-
lightened colonist must consider the most important petition in his
national prayer.
" It is the intention of Government to secure to the Frontier in-
habitants, and the natives beyond us, the safety of their persons and
property, and to promote to the utmost of their power, the arts of
civilized life.

" The rage for emigration to the Northward, says a Frontier
Correspondent, still continues. The destination of our farmers is
far to the North, to a country depopulated in the wars of Chaka,
and his successor, Dingaan.
" From another correspondent we learn that the emigrants be-
yond the border are producing misery and war throughout the
boundless interior. The work of death, he observes, is progressing
rapidly in the interior. Mossilikatrie's tribe have been defeated
by the Boers, and a vast number left dead on the field. Three
farmers fell in the conflict. •

" The Lieutenant-Governor arrived at Somerset late in the
evening on the 17th, and on Monday, the 19th, an address was
presented to him. His Honour took his departure for Grauff
Reinet on Tuesday.
" We learn from a correspondent oe the Frontier, that the crops
on the river have been unusually fine. At Graham's Town, also,
the prices of provisions have fallen considerably, and cattle are at
lower prices. The weather was favourable in getting in the crops."
The extra express received this morning from Paris brings the
information of the defeat of the French Ministry in the Chamber
of Deputies on the Disjunction Law by a majority of 2; but it had
no effect on the French Funds.

A report prevailed yesterday afternoon that Espartero had com-
menced his march on Durango on the 2d inst. Had this operation
taken place on the above day, no doubt the French telegraph
would have announced it on the 4th or sth inst. ; and we should
have received the dispatch by the extra express this morning from
Paris. It is not therefore credited at present.
Consols were buoyant during yesterday morning, but towards
the afternoon they receded a little, and closed at 90a * for the April
Account, and 90* for Money.
The speculations are in favour of a further improvement, as there
can be no doubt that commercial affairs are in a more healthy state
than for some time past, and the needful to carry on commerce is
becoming more easy. with a restoration of confidence.
Consols opened this morning at the above prices. Exchequer
Bills 28 30 prem. ; India Bonds, 25 27 ; Bank Stock shut.
In the Foreign Market Spanish Active closed at 25i *; opened
same price ; Passive, 7% ; Deferred, 10* 111 ; Portuguese,
484 49 ; Three per Cents., 31* 32 ; Dutch Two-and-a-Half per
Cents., 53i *.

HALF-PAST ONE O'CLOCK.
Up to the present hour everything is dull' in the City, as well as
the operations in the various funds.
The speculators are now waiting to ascertain if the Cham-
bers in France will be dissolved, or if the Ministers are deter-
mined to stand their ground. It is generally expected that
they will resort to the former, and by which means they will gain
three months' time, and strengthen themselves in the House of
Deputies.
Consuls, which were firm in the early part of the morning at
90-a- and at one period done at 90k, have since receded to 90,1- for
the April Account, and for Money 90. Exchequer Bills, 28 30
prem. ; India Bonds, 27 prem. ; Bank Stock shut. •
Spanish Active, which was in the early part of the day 25% 25%,
at present 25% ; Passive, 7%; Deferred, 10% 11%; Portuguese,
48% 49%; 3 per Cents., 311 32; Dutch Two-and-a-Half per
Cents., 53% 53%.
THREE O'CLOCK.
