THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY).

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
Our arrivals this morning are the French, Hambro', and
Lisbon mails—the latter not of so late a date as received yes-
terday, only April 24—yesterday's being May 5.
We have a great number of ship letters—New York ; Cal-
cutta of Jan. 5 ; Madras, Jan. 25; Bombay, Jan. 4 ; Ceylon,
Jan: .5 ; Cape, Feb. 27.

We have received Montreal prpers to the 10th of April, and
Quebec to the same, date. We give the subjoined from the
Montreal papers :
" A number of inhabitants of Toronto lately addressed Sir
Francis Head on the subject of the responsibility of the Exe-
cutive Council, to precisely the same effect as did the City
Council. His Excellency's reply is highly characteristic, and
gives a vivid idea of the man, though not of the Governor.
A rejoinder of great length was written to it, full of con-
temptible quibbling and impertinent insinuation, and betraying
the most stubborn obtuseness of understanding."
The Quebec papers say that the weather had become warm,
and though the frost at night had been occasionally sharp, still
the ground-thaw was evidently going on.
It was currently reported in the military circles that a Lieu-
tenant-General will be sent from England in the course of the
summer to take the command of the troops in Canada.
The Demerara papers contain an important ordinance by the
Lieutenant-Governor and the Court of Policy, for the admis-
sion into Demerara of African blacks captured on their passage
by British cruisers, and liberated, by order of the Courts of
Mexico, commissioned at the Havannah.

From Singapore, we hear that the dispute of the Siamese
with Cochin China was still pending. The Siamese were
still preparing for war. From Canton it is stated that the
trade was in a depressed state.
The Madras papers of the 24th of January, give the follow-
ing notice from the Finance Department, dated Fort St.
George, January 14:—" Gentlemen, your communication of
the 30th of October last, having been submitted for the consi-
deratkm of the Governor-General of India in Council, I am di-
rected to inform you that this Government is precluded from
resuming the purchase of bullion, as therein requested.
(Signed) C H AMIE R, Chief Secretary.
