THE FUNDS-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TIVELYE
The only arrival this morning of importance is by tiro
re-a
Iberia steamer, from Lisbon. The Duke of Ter
has left the capital to join the Charterists. Oporto 15,001'
dared in a state of siege, and Valencia is being 'dot
herded ; and according to appearances, it Would.seeol
the Charterists will gain the day.
Yesterday a report prevailed that Government
.I°`l
re
dered some ships of the line to the Tagus, but at the
sent time we believe it to be an idle rumour. iye
There appears to be a greater degree of confidence to ef
mercantile interest since the arrival of the New York P3coill
with a large amount of specie on hoard, and no doubt it
cause an improvement in commercial affairs..
The Foreign Exchange was firm yesterday, hut the Pr
were much the same as the last quotation. .
