THE FUNDS.

Money was scarce in the house in the early part of
the day, but after the Account was nearly settled it
became more easy.
In the course of yesterday afternoon the Foreign Ex-
changes were rather lower, the Market not being well
supplied with bills.
Consols, which left off yesterday at 90ii for Money,
and 9lg 1 for the opening in January, may be quoted
at the above prices ; at present the speculators are
waiting to ascertain the French prices before they act.
Exchequer Bills, 4 2 dis. ; Bank Stock, 1771 1781 ;
India Stock, 251 252 ; in India Bonds nothing done
as yet.

In the Foreign Market, Spanish Active left off at
24k ; since the report of the French mail has arrived,
the above stock has improved to 241 consequently
the price must have come better from Paris. Portu-

We hear that application has been made to Lora
Palmerston by the East Todia and China Association in
respect to what he intends to do in regard to China
affairs. His answer is stated to be, in a letter to them,
that bg mid give them no information on the subject,
and leaves it to their own discretion to act.
The only featute worth observation in the British
Market is the purchase of 60,000 Consols for Money,
whigh paused the market to continue firm.
In the eaFly part of the morning a report prevailed
that the French mail had arrived, as well as the Great
Western being off Bristol b up to the present time we
wont confirm either of .them. Much anxiety prevails
among 0?p merchants for the arrival of the Great
Western, as it i 4 expected she will bring some important
information respecting eemmercial affairs in the United
§tAtes.

nesday morning by the noorarrival of the Birmingham
mail, duo at half-past five, but not rePeive4 pptil a quar-
ter past nine. The delay was accounted for by roe bad
state of the railroad, the rails having become an slippery
that the carriage-wheels would not act upon them. OU
Thursday morning the 13irroingham mail was again de-
layed until half-past eight, three hours after time, in con-
sequenee, as was stated, of the heavy fall of spat on
that line of road. On Thursday morning also the South,
ampton mail per railroad, which should have been Tpr
ceived at half-past six, did not arrive until three hours
afterwards. It is stated that, owing to some accident,
the train had slipped off the rails. After a. WO.; delay,
however, the extra engine was despatched, and bougl)t
up the mail, leaving the carriages 4%1 passengers behind,
until matters could be rectified.
EFFECTS OF THE WEATHER OW H4).4TLI.—
During Wednesday night four police, constables of ;..hA?.
E division whilst on duty were so seriously and suddenly
seized with internal cramp that they were taken to the
station-house, and from thence to their homes for me-
dical assistance. Their illness is attributed to the
weather.

HOCUSBiNg.—On Thursday morning a matt
was taken to St. George's Hospital in a state of com-
plete insensibility, in which ba AoAtimjed till the after-
noon, when he died. There is but little tiqPbt
he had been robbed, and had previously undergone what
;i4,- enveloped in much mystery ; but
is now ive,tty well known by the term" hocussing." The
P'Jlor4cer had informs: 10 the subject, n. op
he directed every inquiry to Le made ; and the in4uest
will be held at St. George's Hospital thiSAlay.
