THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

It is generally stated that the United States Bank of
America has objected to the proposal made by the Bank of
England, to open a credit for the merchants of New York to
the extent of two millions sterling. The objecti in by the
United Slates Bank was, that one-half was to be paid in gold.
It is expected that this failure in the negotiation will have
some effect on the American merchants. It is also ascertained
that America is a debtor to this country on the balance of
trade from seven to ten millions sterling, and the liabilities are
calculated at the amount of 160,000,000 of dollars.

Consols were buoyant during Saturday, with a brisk demand
for some of the heavy Stocks ; and it is expected that a fur-
ther improvement will t.lke place in Consols, which closed at
91i i; for July Account J 1 ; and opened this morning at
the above prices ; Exchequer Bills 32 34 prem. ; India Bonds
32 34 prem. ; Bank Stock 206 207 ; India Stock 260 261.

In the Foreign Market Spanish Active is heavy, owing to
its coming from Paris 1 per cent. lower. Spanish Active
closed on Saturday at 25i ex. Coupons, opened at 234 24 ex.
Coupons ; Passive 64 ; Deferred 94 ; Portuguese closed at
494--at present 48. 49 ; Three par Cents. 30 to 34 ; Co-
lombian 231 241 ; Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. 531 f.
HALF--PAST ONE.

The accounts received this morning from Manchester and
Liverpool are not of a cheering description. In the former
town, trade is exceedingly dull ; and in the latter we hear of
some more failures of American houses, but it is expected that
two or three of them will be assisted by their friends, and
which will enable them to resume their busiucss.

Consols have been during the morning 911 for the Ac-
count and Money, with little doing. Exchequer Bills lower,
32 premium ; India Bonds improved, 37 35 premium ; Bank
Stack, 2061; India Stock, 2601.
In the Foreign Market there was a good deal doing in the
early part of the morning in Spanish Active ; since which the
market has become heavy. Spanish Active, 23k, Ex-Cou-
pons ; Passive, 04-; Deferred, 9; Portnuese, 484; Three
per Cents., 30; Dutch Two-and-Half per Cents., 531 ; Spa-

The estates of the late Mr. Nash, the architect to

lute sale next Tuesday, under a decree of the Court of Chan-
cery. The property is in Regent-street and its vicinity. It
includes Mr. Nash's celebrated gallery. The rental exceeds
3,0001. a-year.
MR. THEODORE HOOK'S " JACK BRAG."—
" ' Jack Brag' is a work drawn after Theodore Hook's own
heart, abounding in wit, originality, and ludicrous incident.
The hero, who may be considered as the head of a very nume-
rous class..-the Brags—is brought into a variety of whimsical
and distressing scrapes by his boasting propensity. This is
the outline of the history, but it is worked out in Hook's best
manner. Jack is of ♦ery humble extraction, being the son of
a tallow-chandler; but he disdains the uncongenial profes-
sion ; and being, perhaps, like Othello,' unused to the melting
mood,' he determines to become a gentleman. There are
several characters sketched with a raciness peculiar to Hook,
and we can fairly recommend a perusal of Jack Brag' to
every one [who loves a frolicsome and laughable story."—
Courier.

On Friday morning the wife of a respectable man,
of the name of Rodbard, residing in Watling-street, City, was
safely delivered of four children, three girls and one boy. The
mother and infants are doing as well as can be expected.
The first importation of cotton destined to be manu-
factured in Hull arrived on Wednesday. It consisted of 150
bales, and was brought by the Railway Company's boat. A
more interesting import has not been entered for many years.
It is like the discovery of a new world; and if good begin-
nings are a criterion of success, an ample harvest must result
from the experiment.—Hull Packet.

On Whit-Tuesday the Kendal Auxiliary Tem-
perance Society celebrated, for the second time, their Annual
Festival amidst the romantic beauties of Pine drags.
