THE FUNDS.

The Express from Paris has brought the speech of the King of
the French, which is decidedly looked on both in this country
and in Paris as being pacific, but it is evidently in favour of the
Belgians. Up to the present time it has not had the least efli.et
on our Funds, as our local affairs absorb all foreign politics. At
the present moment the 'dissolution, aad nothing but the dl4,
solution, occupiek the attention of the public, and it appears the
nation is determined to support their King, who is resolved not
to desert them, and, no doubt, by this measure, will become the
most popular Monarch in the world.
Consols, which left off yesterday at 78% 79 for the account,
opened at the same price this morning, at which they continue
at present.

Nearly one million of stock was sold yesterday afternoon, when
was known Parliament would be dissolved. •

HALF-PAST ONE.
The general topic of conversation in the City still relates to the
dissolution of Parliament, but some persons imagine that it will
be prorogued first. Should his Majesty proceed in person to the
House to dissolve his Parliament, eren without an:escort, he will
have the satisfaction to witness the enthusiasm of his loyal
subjects.

The operations of the Bank for narrowing the circulation is
going on, as the Bank brokers having brought Exchequer Bills

Consols continue steady at 78y4 to 79 for the Account, and for
money 79% to 4, with little doing.
Not a feature in the Foreign Market worth observation at present.

" TO THE NATIONAL 6 OVERNAIENT.

" I have great satisfaction in announcing to the Govern-

yesterday. We have taken several cannons, and 3,000
or 4,000 prisoners, cnuongst whom are nearly 300
officers of different ranks. General Promdzynski, com-
mending a separate corps, covered himself with glory.

give a more detailed report.

TIIE YOUNG DUKE.—It has been said that

the scenes on the turf and at the gambling table in this
new novel, will remind the reader of the power of the
duel-scene in Vivian Grey, by the same- author. Great
expectations are excited by the book.

Reports are prevalent that Lord JOHN Rtrs-
SEA will be proposed as a candidate for the county of
Devon, at the next election.—Both Chronicle.

The authoress of the Tales published under
the title of " Wedded Life in the Upper Ranks," is, we
understand, expected in town in the course of next week,
in compliance with the invitation of an illustrious per--
soilage.

ITINERANT MAWWORM.--Early in the af-
ternoon of Tuesday last, a tall fellow, six feet high,
dressed in a dark brown coat, pa•sing through Freahfurd,
fell down on his knees in the middle of the village, and
began vociferating a prayer at the utmost stretch of a voice
of stentorian power, and of grinding harshness. He did
not appear to labour under mental abarra:ion ; but what
he uttered was an irreverent farrago of Scripture phrases,
applied without sense or meaning. His audience was com-
posed of only four individuals of the poorer classes, who
knew not whether to laugh or be serious.—Bath Herald.
