TILE FUNDS.

The Consol Market, to the present time, continue*
steady. Consols, which left off yesterday at 91 f for the
Account, opened at 91f. at which price they remain, al-
ternately buyers and sellers. The public attention, this
morning, is greatly engrossed by the explanation and re-
futation, in certain Morning Journals, with regard to the
late melancholy event of Lord Graves, and the public learn
with great satisfaction that the scandalous insinuation*
against a person of high rank are without the least foun-
dation. _ .

In the Foreign Market there is little or nothing doing
at present. Most of the prices are nominal.
In the Foreign Market a great deal has been done in
Brazil Stock in the early part of the morning. When the
arrival of the Lobelia frigate was known from Rio
Janeiro, a report was put into circulation that she brought
a declaration of war against Portugal ; but it appear. she
is not of so late a date as the last Brazil packet, and has
only conveyed to France the second daughter of Don
Pedro, to receive her education there. Owing to the
above report, Brazil Stock receded to 651, since which
reaction took place, and they are now 66i. Greek Stook
has improved ; Spanish Stock maintains its price.
TWO O'CLOCK.

Consols have continued during the whole of the morn-
ing at 91i to 92 for the Account, and for morel►
with little business doing.
No political information has come to band of any coo-
segnence, nor do we hear, up to the present hour, of 09
Express having arrived from Paris.
HALF-PAST TWO.

'Within a short period a sudden improvement has takes
place in Consols, which were 911, and have got up to
92 for the Account, owing to a report that at the
Bank meeting to-morrow something will be said about
discounting at 3 per cent. ; this is only report.

We were concerned to hear, that the Right
lion. Sir SAMUIL Stu:trump has been induced to resig"
the distinguished office of Lord Chief Baron of Scotland,
in consequence of continued indisposition. We arc sore
he will retire from office with the regret of every individual
who had the happiness of being acquainted with him, i°
this pat tof the world. The appointment of his successor'
in the person of the Hon. Jeurts ABICACILOMBIE, :Will be
be hailed with great satisfaction in Edinburgh. The
interest which that gentleman has always taken in the af'
fairs of Edinburgh, has endeared him to its inhabitant",
who will have peculiar satisfaction in seeing him settled,
possibly for life, as a residenter among them.— Cal•doniao
