THE FUNDS.

The great agitation which prevailed in the Consul market
yesterday, and for which no person could account, has thi,
morning entirely disappeared, as well as the iiuniero:is re-
ports which were in circulation ; in consequence of which
the market is resuming its previous attitude. ConsoL,
which left off yesterday at 9q-1 for the account, opened
this morning at 92i, and were done at:9'4 for the ac-
count ; but at present the market is not quite so firm, and
Consuls may be quoted 92 ii, and for money ; nothing
doing as yet in the Foreign Market.

The Consol 'Market may at preNent be quoted at 92tV,
for the account. The Hebrew party have again been pur•
chasing this morning. •

TWO O'CLOCK.

Consols have fluctuated in the cmtriseoftl7e—n;r7iing
about fi per cent. ; they were done in the early part of the
day at 92,i, and afterwards reached 9:?,i for the account ;
at present they remain steady at .1. The Hebrew
party have been very active in purchasing, which demon-
strates that they do not expect a fall.
The information received from the Swan River is more
favourable than was expected ; it does not appear that
the now adventurers have left the Colony, as stated, on
their landing. The soil is not good but they expect it
beteer further in the intetiur.

In the Foreign market Greek and Colombian Stocks
have declined, the newt; from Colombia being unfavour-
able ; in other Foreign securities little doing.

CHURCII REFORM.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

feel much obliged to your Clerical Corre-
spondent for his strictures on my " Liturgy Revised." lie
has executed the gratuitous office of a critic with the ur-
banity of u gentleman, and the mildness of a Christian.
In the main we appear to be perfectly agreed ; and if it be
said, in the detail of those parts which he censures, he has
been more diffuse than in those which he approves, he
would probably reply that it was timely necessary to al-
lude to the latter, is order to obtain the suffrage of every
impartial reader, whereas it required some of Mr. Wheat-
ley 's "ingenious arguments and subtle distinctions" to
establish the generality of his objections. Should a second
edition of my work be published, he and every other per-
son who will write on the subject in an equals sensible
and candid manner, shall find that their observations have
not been disregarded.
There is, however, one topic on which we are far from
agreeing. I refer to time decided superiority of our own
national Articles over our foreign and anonymous Creeds.
Our Articles "contain a full and lucid exhibition of the
various doctrines and principal rites of time Church of Eng-
land ;" whereas our Creeds, with a few exceptions, exhibit
any thing rather than a clear and specific statement Of
gospel truth. Even on those topics in which tie Creeds
are most specific, our Articles are abundantly preferable. •
Turn, for instance; to the doctrine of the Trinity, as ex-
hibited in the Est Article, and in the Crecd improperly
assigned to Athanasius;
" Lock here, upon this picture and on this."
Tile Creed is metaphysical, unintelligible, uncharitable;
the Article lucid, specific, scriptural, and perfectly in
keeping with the exemplary and refreshing plainness of
our other Services. In chart, no one who does not im-
pugn the doctrine itself can object to the Article, whereas
the classic wit of the most eloquent Statesman, and the
vulgar sarcasm of the most illiterate caviller, are alike di-
rected against the Creed.

What, then, I would ask, should prevent our Church
from making such an evideut distinction between her own
Articles and her auxiliary Creeds, as would free her from
all responsibility respecting any inaccuracies of argument,
defects in elucidation, or unguarded expressions, which
may be found in those ancient formularies, while she
might equally appeal to them i❑ corroboration of her own
sentiments ? Or what should prevent our Government
from authorising our hierarchy collectively, or, if deemed
more desirable, that highly-talented portion of it which is
now appointed for a Commission of far le:•s importance, to
consider tvliat emendations in this, or in any other part of
our Scrvise, might be desirable
I am, Sir, your's obediently,
ROBERT COX.

DISTRESSING SUICIDE.--this morning
TOOKE, Eq., so❑ of the eminent Russia merchant,
of that name, put a period to his existence at his father's
house, No. 7, Richmond-terrace, Whitehall. This
unfortunate gentleman was only in his 24th year,
and no cause, as we hear, has been assigned for the rash
act, which was performed in so determined a manner
that the throat was literally cut from par to ear. When the
servant went into the room this morning it was
deluged with blood, and the unfortunate gentlemrn
being quite dead. A Coroner's inquest wilt be held at six
o'clock this afternoon,

The Duke of R rclizioND has tahen the house
