THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
Owing to contrary winds we are without arrivals, with the
exception of the express from Paris, which brings the Relates
somewhat lower.
Lintaeoo►., Nov. IS.—The arrivals of cotton this week have
been but moderate, and purchases are now made with more con.
Hence After the decline which has taken place these last few
weeks on prices, the demand since Saturday has been very brisk,
and sales have obtained in most cases %d. per lb. On Monday
the sales were 5,000, Tuesday 4,000, and yesterday 4,000.
THE FUNDS.
At length we have a list of the new Ministry, which is sup.
posed tobe nearly correct; but the appointment of Mr. Brougham
as Lord Chancellor is not as yet credited by the public. There
is also another singular nomination, Lord Palmerston as Mini.
ster for Foreign Atiltirs. Upon the whole the new Administra.
Wei is in general Considered as composed of men of talent and of
the old school, moderate in their principles, who will do the
utmost in their power to assuage the present distress of their
country, by a strict perseverance of economy and refonn.
The t unds this morning are not so good as yesterday, as some
fears are entertained of a property-tax, with too much of the
cutting down principle by the new Ministry, in consequence of
which Consols, which left oft yesterday at 8214 receded to 82%
for the Account ;at present they are 82% ; for next time b 3.
In the Foreign Market little doing as yet.

Our City politicians and speculators do not as yet place confi.
desire in the list of the new Ministry, and it is their opinion that
nothing as yet has been finally settled. Up to the present hour
we have no official information ors the subject.
The Conaol Market has somewhat improved since the early part
of the morning, when they were at 82%. At present they may
be quoted b 3; for next time, 83%,
The extreme fluctuation during the week has been 2- per cent.
The information from Brussels, received yesterday, is unfa-
vourable. Great fear is entertained that Holland will be Weeded
by the Constitutionalists.
In the Foreign Market little or nothing doing; prices much
the same as yesterday.

Sir WALTER SCOTT has retired from his
situation as one of the ;Principal Clerks of Session, on the
pension to which he is legally entitled by length of service.
Government handsomely offered him a pension to make up
the loss of income he had sustained by his retirement,
which our illustrious countryman, with that spirit of in-
dependence which has always ch.racterised him, at once
respectfully, but firmly, declined.-- Caledonian Mercury.
At a meeting of the Fellows of Christ's Col.
lege, Cambridge, on the Sth instant, to elect a Master, in
the room of the Right Rev. Dr. KATE, Lord Bishop of
Lis:cowl, who recently resigned that situation, it was un-
animously agreed by them to present his Lordship with a
piece of plate, of the value of bOO/., from private rontri.
buttons amongst themselves, as a testimony of their re-
spect, and to mark their sense of the great advantages
which the Society derived from his Lordship's talents and
virtues during the time that he presided over it.
HOJEDA'S ESCAPF. FROM THE INDIANS,
HIS ?ARTY BEINQ MASSACREL),—.OII teaching the shores
of Carthagena, !Imams, in conformity with the royal in-
structions, began by exhorting the Indisns to embrace the
doctrines of Christianity, to deal kindly towards the Spa-
niards, and to acknowledge the authority of the King of
CASTILE. The simple inhabitants, not comprehending
the drift of these novel propositions, replied to them by a
fierce attack on the strangers, whom they probably re-
garded as dangerous intruders. Though terrified at first
by the dreadful sound and fatal effects of fire-arms, they
returned to the onset with a courage unusual among the
natives of the New World. The Spaniards, notwith-
standing the superiority of their anus and the advantages
of discipline, were unable,' to resist the poisoned arrows
and overpowering numbers of the Indians. They all fell,
about seventy in number, among whom was the pilot,
Juan rut La Cosa. /loam)* alone saved himself by the
rapidity of his flight. When those who had remained on
board, and who were still in ignorance of what had be-
fallen their companions, sent A boat on shore after some
hoftuartooolneacaranwiin their prwe they found their corn.
