THE FUNDS.

The Paris accounts this morning state that the proposition to
cover the loan of 120,000,000 by voluntary subscriptions, has
been received on the 'Change at Paris with the most lively satis-
faction by every Frenchman.
The Chamber of Brokers for Commerce and for Insurances
are invited to receive at their offices at the 'Change of Paris sub-
scriptions at par for the loan of 1:20,000,000, for which there is
already opened lists of subscriptions at M. Mallet and Brothers,
Fould and Oppenhiem and Co. By the above information it ap-
pears that the French loan will not be contracted for, but raised
by voluntary subscription. There can be very little doubt but
that this has been the cause of so considerable an improvement in
the French rentes, as well as the favourable news from Poland
of the defeat of the Russians. Consols which left off on Satur-
day at '79 to qi for the Account, opened with an improvement of
2 per cent., and were done at SI ; since which a little re-action
has taken place, and they are now 80 to
In the koreign Market little doing as yet.

LONDON MAIL.---It gives us much pleasure
to rind that the Duke of RICHMOND has net been alto-
gether inattentive to the applications from Glasgow, rela-
tive to the acceleration of the London mail. By the first
of a series of measures about to be adopted for accomplish-
ing the desired object, the mail is expected to arrive at
twenty minutes after three o'clock. This is to be-attained
by causing the Manchester, Birmingham, Bristol, Exeter,
and Falmouth bags to be transmitted direct to and from
these places, instead of, as at prevent, having them sorted
at Carlisle, by which a delay of 'twenty minutes is ores
sioned. We have no doubt that his Grace will persevere
in his exertions till the mail is brought in at one o'clock.—

EWMARKET CRAVEN MEETING.

•
FRIDAY NIGHT.
We have hitherto omitted any notice of the weather,
which has been remarkable for its variety. -On Monday
the heat was excessive ; on Tuesday the other extreme
prevailed, and these " transitions from heat to cold" con-
tinued up to Thursday night, being equally sudden and
unhealthy. This morning another change occurred, the
wind was violent, and the rain without intermission, jointly
presenting an obstacle to amusement that can be easily
understood by those who have encountered a visitation of
this kind on Newmarket heath. It was the More to be
regretted as the list produced eight races, several of them
being admirably contested. The riders had a wretched
time of it, their flimsy habiliments afforded but fetble
resistance to the rain, which, receiving a powerful im-
petus from a strong north-easter, cut into them with an
effect that jockies only can appreciate, and this they had
to endure from twelve o'clock till five. The only race of
any actual importance was for the Port Stakes; het e
Priam bid his adieu to the Chifneys, softening the effect
of the separation by putting into their pockets enough
to buy half a dozen pipes of port, besides the further vale-
dictory trifle of 3,000 guineas. To say that he won his
race easy would be to tell what would be taken for granted.
He was hard held all the way; and he thus goes into Lord
Chesterfield's stable with the well-earned reputation of
being the best horse in the kingdom. He has earned for
his late proprietors nearly 10,0001. in stakes, independent .
of bets ; so that if we say that the Chifneys have netted
30,000/. by him, we shall be speaking within compass.
The question now is, " will Lord Chesterfield ever get
back his 3,000/. ? We should say, certainly not. Ex-
perience has clearly shown that if ever a horse is worth
that sum, it is before the Derby, for by that time nearly
all the three year old stakes are disposed of, and he then
has to run for cups, plates, and handicaps, in which latter
a Derby winner is sure to be cut down by weight. .
The following horsey, like Priam, were soli for large
sums after winning the Derby or some other great stakes,
and in every instance turned out most unprofitable specu-
lations to their new masters :

Memnon 3,500 guineas. Mameluke 4,000 guineas.
...... 3,000 The Colonel. 4,000
Cedric B,OOO Cetus. 3,000
Longwaist... 3,000 The Mummer.... 1,500
Zinganee 3,000 • Leviathan 2,000
In fact, it would be difficult to name an instance where
the experiment has succeeded. Priam's only present en-
gagement, we believe, is in the Ascot Cup, and it is in,
tended to enter him for the Goodwood Cup. If, he rune
for the former, which, owing to its absurd conditions., is
not worth his notice, he will have to carry Sibs. extra at
Goodwood, and if he does not go for the former, be muse
carry 41b. in addition to his regular weight, for winning'
the Putt. In addition to this, there is the difference of
training, a Matter of more than ordinary importance to a
horse accustomed to the peculiar and severe system adopted
by the Chifueys. The change in Zinganee's running after
leaving their stable, is a care in point.
Besides the race mentioned in our report sent off the,
race-course this afternoon, the following were decided at
a later hour
