THE FUNDS.

To the present hour we do not hear either of the London or Liver.
pool packet having arrived, oo doubt owing to the contrary winds at
sea. Great anxiety and disappointment is experienced by the merchants
and public in consequence of their non-arrival, but more particularly
for the Liverpool one, which is now some days over due. This delay
causes a great stagnation in the various speculations of the Funds, but
more particularly in the British Market.

HALF-PAST ONE O'CLOCK.

The Consol Market has turned heavy since the early part of the
morning, when they were 91{ for the Account, since which they have
receded to 911 2 ; said to be owing to the non arrival of late news from

informed that the above mail could not bring later accounts from Navy
Island than previously received by the American papers, particularly at
this time of the season.
