HALF--PAST ONE.
The Foreign Exchanges yesterday were flat, with little
alteration in their rates. Monday is settling-day in the
Foreign Market, in consequence of which a very great
scarcity of money is experienced in the above Market ;
20 per cent, per annum has been given on Spanish, and
12 per cent, on Portuguese Stock. It is expected
that there will be great difficulty in carrying
over some of the accounts ; for the first-rate speculators
there is no fear, but the middling ones will be much
pushed to obtain the cash.
Consols are at present 89i 90 Money ; for Account,
901 ; Exchequer Bills, 1 3 discount ; India Bonds par,
2 discount.
Spanish Active, 30/ t ; Portuguese, 35i ; Three per
Cents., 23i ; Brazilian, 75 ; Colombian, ; Dutch

This morning, about" half-past three o'clock, a
fire was discovered by police constables Brooks, Burn,
and Husted, of the L division, who were on duty near
the Marsh-gate, Lambeth, in the house of Mr. Price,
hair-dresser, No. 7, Mount-row. The officers succeeded
in alarming the inmates to their perilous situation, who
escrped by dropping from the first floor balcony into the
street, and some bystanders gave timely information to
the West of England and Waterloo-road stations, and
in a few minutes three engines and several firemen were
on the spot, but the fire had taken so firm a hold of the
shop and its contents that the house was soon
completely gutted, and every article of stock and furni-
ture consumed. Easton, belonging to the West of
England Office, saved one of the children, who was
found on the landing nearly suffocated. Mr. Price is,
fortunately, insured in the Sun Fire Office.
