THE FUNDS.-(THJS DAY.)

CITY, TWELVE OCLOCIC.

Very disastrous accounts in respect to commercial affairs have
been received this morning from the United States. Two Hebrew
houses of the first respectability have failed ; also a house in the fur
business in New York ; and the house at New Orleans, of which
we had previous notice, who stopped payment for seven millions of
dollars, it appears that their affairs had not been settled by the last
accounts. These unfortunate events we have great fear will tend
to create great alarm in this country, particularly with the mer-
chants connected with the United States. One of the above houses
it is reported, has stopped for 11 millions of dollars. For further
particulars of these events we must wait the arrival of another
packet from New York. At present it causes a very great sensation
in the City, fearing that it will be the cause of more extensive
failures both in this country and the United states.

The whole topic of conversation in the City, entirely relates-to

The unfavourable intelligence of the great failures in the United
States, to the reported amount of nearly two millions sterling, has
not had much effect on the British Funds.
