HALF-PAST ONE.

During the whole of the morning, till within a short
period, the Funds continued stationary at 921 k, for the
Account, since which they have rather improved, and
Consols done at 92a for the Account, Money, 9t ; Ex-
chequer Bills, 38 40 ; India Bonds, nothing doing; Bank
Stock shut ; India also.

It appears that Consols are better for Money than for the
Account.

In the Foreign Market the chief business doing is in
Spanish Active, which is not quite so good as in the early
part of the morning, and may be quoted at 20, Passive,
; Portuguese, 331-; Three per Cents., 204 ; Dutch
Two-and-a- Half per Cents., 554-; Five per Cents., 1003..
Ccnsols have just been done at 02,1 a Money, 92i 93
for the Account.

The great delay which has taken place in fitting out the
British Queen steamer has caused great surprise to the
merchants. This is not the case with the building of the
President at Mr. Curling's yard at "Poplar. This vessel
is already in complete frame, and has a majestic appear-
ance.

No new', or is there anv further arrivals.

THE GREAT STRUGGLE-SIMULTANEOUS
NIEETINGS. —From all quarters we are gratified that the
spirit of the people is raised to the great struggle, and on
the 7th we are certain the simultaneous meetings will
prove how universal is the abhorrence of a Tory Govern-
ment over Ireland. You cannot take up a Tory newspaper
now without being convinced that the Tories hove staked
their strength as a party on the issue of the debate of the
15th. The simultaneous meetings seem to have alarmed
them, and they also fear that the confusion and convul.
sion which must inevitably follow a Tory Government in
Ireland may have an effect of influencing the more prudent
leaders of the English section, and cause them to avoid

the consequences of surrendering Ireland to the tender
mercies of Irish Toryism.—Pilot.
