THE FUNDS.

Considerable agitation was produced yesterday
arternoOn in the City, when the fact of an issue of
i Notes by the Bank of England was ascertained.
s
teral parcels of old Ones were dispatched to
Country Bankers—the only parties to whom this
new issue of paper has been made. The result
of
this measure on the country circulation is
awaited with anxiety, great difference of opinion
Prey. •
ailing on that point. If that class, through
lthose hands 1/. notes may be expected to circu-
late in place of sovereigns, should manifest a
disinclination to this substitution of public, for
private paper—the advantage gaii;ed in point
otime, would be more than counterba-
auced, by the probable reaction consequent on a
failure of the attempt to reintroduce this species
°f circulation. True it is, that with the excep-
tion of the County of Lancaster, the circulation of
kroldot • nis intercepted by the notes of
Country Banks, and a preference may be given
to
those of the Bank of England. The late
runs upon Country Banks have , nevertheless
forced sovereigns into circulation in many dis-
-I:icts, where they were comparatively un-
"%lvo to the labouring classes whether
u Preference to gold will be manifested, is
the Problem, of which a solution is so anxious-
ly desired. That this issue of a currency so
universally obnoxious is, to say the least of it, a
l'recautionary measure, dictated by the great and
increasingt demand for gold, it is impossible to
l euY* The step was not taken without due
deliberation, nor can it be doubted that the Go-
vernor and Directors of the Bank suggested solid
grounds, on which the acquiescence of the Ca-
binet Was given. In such a crisis, it is, how-
ever futile to assign reasons merely palliative of
the measure. Such, for example, is that of
thp •
- Inconvenience arising from the weight of

twenty thousand sovereigns do not greatly exceed
400 Pounds weight. This surely is no great ac-
cession of burthen for four horses, especial-

as on such a journey, there is naturally an
e'temption from the usual incumbrance of luggage.
Three persons of average weight, with the usual
quantum of travelling luggage, will form an
bggregate weight of 5001 b., and if to this
e added, that of a servant, it is considerably
more. If the demand for gold bad coati-

nued, the coffers of the Batik might have been
drained to the last sovereign, and although a
considerable stock of Guineas might have
remained, as well as of Bullion, neither would

have supplied the place of Sovereigns for the
emergency of Country Notes of only one pound.
The necessity of exacting a shilling from the
holder of a 1/. note in exchange for a
guinea, would have been an insuperable obstacle
to that rapid payment, which can alone arrest the

CORN EXCIIANGE, JAs. 3.

The arrivals of all sorts of Corn last week were good. This
morning there are only moderate fresh supplies of Wheat,
Barley, Beans, and Pease, from Essex, Kent, and Suffolk, and
there are several vessels fresh in from the North and Ireland
with Oats. Wheat on Friday last was reported-2s. per quarter
higher than last Monday, and this advance is maintained to-
day ; but our millers not being inclined to do business, the
trade has become heavy. Barley was dearer in the course of
last week, but the trade has not been free this morning, and the
prices obtained do not exceed the uotations of this day se'n-
night. Beans and Pease arc rather dearer than this day week.
There has been a tolerable free trade to-day for Oats at the
prices of last Monday. The top price of Flour is now consi-
dered as settled at 70s. per sack, but there is no life in the trade.

AUGSBURG, DEC. 25-.
We have just recei►ed, by way of Bucharest
and Widdin, letters from Constantinople of 2.7 th,
-28th, and 29th November.
The -Grand Seignior has ordered-the formation
`lf a new army of reserve, composed entirely of
Asiatic troops. Orders have already been sent to
the Pachas in Asia to send their troops without
delay. This army is to he encamped about Con-
stantinople. The Grand Vizier intended to take
the command of the Ottoman armies in person,
but the Divan has decided that his presence is
necessary at Constantinople, to preserve tram-
quillity.
The extraordinary Meetings of the Divan have
discussed chiedy the affairs of Greece. Some
-Members having advised conciliatory measures,
the majority, with true Ottoman pride, declared
sl...at new efforts must be made during the winter
to prepare a great naval force by the spring.
Nothing has been decided on account of the pe-
nury of the Treasury. When the last courier
!eft Constantinople, people spoke, though very
cautiously, of a rigorous measure which was
going to 1w executed, namely, the deposition of
several of the richest Pachas.

The Etoile, dated Saturday, among various
articles from Turkey, in Asia, has one from Da-
mascus, stating that the destruction of Schiraz in
Persia, by an earthquake, is positively confirm-
ed. ft happened the 20th June, 1824; and it
is said only fifty inhabitants escaped. At Aleppo
..there have been smart and frequent shocks.

CADIZ, DEC. 14.

The French division which is to occupy this
place has taken possession of La Carraca, which
will be fortified immediately. Several other
fortifications are about to be erected in the Isle
of Leon and Cadiz, and all the public revenues
of the two cities will be administered by the
French authorities.

The vessels of the Royal French Marine give
g. Pot protection to our commerce. The Amazone
frigate returned yesterday from the Lazaretto of
Port Mahon, from whence she conveyed two fri-
gates, and two mercantile brigs, which were per-
forming quarantine.
Our trade is in a state of complete stagnation.
Many shopkeepers are gone to begin business in
other parts of ttre Peninsula, and not a few mer-
chants have followed their example, so. that the
population of Cadiz is diminished one fourth.

[NEW TIMES.]

The eagerness shewn on Saturday to purchase
South American Securities, and Mining Shares of
that hemisphere, was quite unprecedented. The
prices, which had been rising through the whole
of the week, attained a great additional ele-
vation : and indeed at the latter part of the
day it was difficult to find Stock or Shares to
meet the demand. These facts admit but of
one solution :—they imply a very general per-
suasion that the formal recognition of some
one or more of the new South American States
has been determined upon by His Majesty's
Government. It is known that our Minister at

Lisbon has strongly urged the Court of Portugal
to acknowledge the independence of Brazil ; and.

it seems not unreasonable to suppose that the
same reasons which prompt this policy in one in-
stance may do so in others. Colombia, for ex-
ample,appears to be as free from foreign control,
and as capable of maintaining its own independ-
ence, as Brazil. Some persons even think that

MARCO BOTZARIS.

The Government of Greece has written the
following letter to the widow of Marco Botzaris,
inviting her to take up her residence at the seat
of Government, and remitting to her 200 Spanish
dollars to enable her to perform the journey :

THE PROVISIONAL GOVERNMENT OF GREECE.

The EXECUTIVE BODY to XADAME CHRISULA BOTZARIS.

" Madam,—The Government having been informed of your
arrival at Zante, with the intention to return to Greece, hastens
to express to you, by these presents, its sincere desire to be of
service to you as far as lies in its power. The Government,
Madam, is the more pleased with your arrival at the present
time, since favourable circumstances enable it to give you a
slight proof of the gratitude which the Greek nation retains
towards the memory of that noble citizen, your late husband,
for his glorious devotion to the welfare of his country. Be
assured, Madam, that the death of your late husband—a death
worthy of envy—was not alone fatal to his family, but that it
filled with affliction the hearts of all his fellow citizens,
as it deprived his country of her bravest and most skilful
defender. But, Madam, be this your consolation—that your
husband, aftp having filled a most brilliant career, merited by
his death the'praises of all nations, and the eternal gratitude of
his fellow-citizens ! And as to yourself, Madam, whose hap-
piness it was to possess such a husband as Marco Botzaris, be
fully persuaded that in every Greek citizen you will find a
steady protector and a sincere friend, and more particularly in
the members of the Government.

" 'With this assurance, Madam, the Government exhorts
you to establish yourself in the place of its residence, and in the
mean time remits you an order on Messrs. John Stephano and
Francis Carvelas, for the sum of 200 Spanish dollars, to fur-
nish you with the expences of your voyage hither.

A carriage is now at Dover which belonged to
her late Majesty Queen CAROLINE. It was of-

tors were eager to obtain it, without succeeding-
The owner has been offered a price far above the

INDIAN JURISPRUDENCE.—The Cherokees, it
is said, have established something like a judiciary system,
and introduced into their society many of the laws and usages
of civilization. As a specimen of the manner in which they
dispense justice in cases of trivial import, we relate the fel-
owmg anecdote, said to be authentic :—An Indian assaulted
another, of which regular information was made. The Judge
ordered the sheriff to bring the parties before him—The sheriff.
went in pursuit of therii, but returned without them. " Where
are your prisoners ?" said the Judge. " I caught them," re-
plied the sheriff:—" What did you do with them ?" " I gave
the defendant fifteen lashes." " 'What did you do with
the plaintiff?" " Gave him fifteen too." " What with
the informer or witness ?" " Why, I gave him twenty-five
lashes, for had he held his tongue, there would have been none
of this fuss or trouble." It would be well if all the dispensa-
tions of justice could be equally and promptly administered.—
(Cheraw Intell_pi,Tncer.)
DUEL.—The following is a correct statement
of the meeting which took place on Thursday morning in a field
nearly opposite the Cavalry Barracks at Windsor, between a
Captain I.)_, of the Grenadier Guards, stationed in that
town, and a Mr. C—. The former Gentleman was attended
by Captain C—, of the Guards, and the latter by Lieutenant
Di of the Bth Hussars. Captain received the fire'
of Mr. C--, and then discharged his pistol in the air, upon
which the affair terminated.

[THE TIMES.I

Lord Donoughmore,appears, from a report of
proceedings which took place at the late Clot'.
rnel:Assizes, under colours which, so far as yet
can be judged Of, reflect no credit on his Lord-
ship either as a Magistrate or ainan. An action
was brought against the Noble Lord by a Mr.
Beere for an unjust and malicious exercise of his
Magisterial power, in employing it for the pur-
pose of entailing on the plaintiff the penalties
due. to felony and Whiteboyism. Beer' had
distrained upon one White fOr rent—the cattle
had been rescued.. An information as to the ,
•
rescue was sworn before Lord G1en,..50-a)1, and a
warrant issued against White. To execute ;
this warrant, .the.. plaintiff went, accompanied
by- constables and yecnpart,. in the night of
the 7th of January. White was. missing, 'but
the
_horses .which had been, rescued .were foUnd
in his
_stable ; and_ they were seized .by plaintiff's
orders,
.as his property. W.hite went with his
story., to Lord Donoughmore, which his Lordship
turned into a.charge of felony, and _wrote ouritit
information to that effect with, his own _hand.; on
vihich,l3l:ere was captured and thrown into prison',
bail being hy_his Lordship refused. The bill for.
this felony being thrown out. by the Grand Jury.,
another for the burglary, in breaking open White's
house at night, was preferred, and _found by, the
Grand jury. Beere was tried on this,and acquitted;
and.now brought his action for these acts of alleged
violence and malice. It was said, by counsel,
thatun the face of the transactions,, Lord Donough-
tnwe knew the real..merits. of the case, and yet
coloured them against the plaintiff, to suite. some

unjustifiable object. It is, at the same time,
justice to add, that we have only seen the speech
of the plaintiff's counsel and the documents pro-
duced on his side of the question : we are there-
fore not at liberty to say more than that the jury
found damages against the defendant of 2501.
But those who are acquainted with. Ireland will
he aware, that against a man so powerful as Lord
Donoughmore, damages are seldom given for
nothing.

Mademoiselle BERT' N, a Parisian milliner, was
much patronized by MARIA ANTIONETTE ; and
upon the strength of the Queen's kindness, as-
sumed a most ridiculous degree of pride. A lady
one day went to that famous fashion-monger to
ask for some patterns of mourning for the Em-
press. Several were shewn her, all of which she
rejected. Mademoiselle Bertin at length ex-
claimed, " show her then some specimens of my
last transactions with her Majesty."
The savage owner of the bull, in pride of vic.
tory over Mr. MARTIN'S efforts to convict the
bull baiters, brought out the same bull to a field
about two miles from Ilounslow, and there set
on an unlimited number of dogs, who literally
tore and devoured the living flesh from off the bones
of this poor defenceless victim of their cruelty.
DREADFULSUICIDE.—Yesterday evening, about
half-past eight o'clock, the neighbourhood of
Coldbath-fields was thrown into confusion by the'
following melancholy catastrophe :—A man of
the name of Godfrey, about fifty years of age,
and who formerly was an officer of Marylebone
police-office, contrived to effect an entrance, by
the back-way, into a shut-up public house, the
sign of the Apple Tree, the corner of Great
Warner-street, and putting the muzzle of a load-
ed pistol into his mouth, literally blew the left
side of his face to atoms ; indeed, such was the
horrid spectacle that presented itself, that some
time elapsed before the unfortunate man could be
recognized. It appears, that about 3 weeks ago
the deceased was conveying a prisoner named W.
Thompson to Coldbath-fields prison, and having
nearly reached the place of destination, was pre-
vailed on by the prisoner to allow him to take
some refreshment before placing him in the cus-
tody of the Governor of that prison, when Thomp-
son ran out of the house, and although closely
pursued succeeded in effecting his escape, in con-
sequence of which Godfrey was removed from
his situation. The deceased had since been ob-
served in a desponding state, and, watching an
opportunity of entering the house whence arose
the cause of his distress, there terminated an ex-
;Sten ce which had become a burden to him.

CHIT CHAT IN SOCIETY.

Mr. Townshend, son of Lord John Townshend, is soon to
be married to Miss Seymour, the daughter of Lord George Sey-
reour.—The liberality of Mrs. Coutts has been very happily
exemplified on this occasion, and the substantial aid she has
given will enable the marriage to take place.

Sir Osmond Gibbs is to marry Miss More, the niece of Lady
Clonmel.

Mr. Stanley, M.P., the eldest son of Lord Stanley, and re-
cently returned from the United States, is to be married to Miss
Wilbraham.

A rumour has been for some time circulating that Lord Ches-
terfield is to marry Lady Sarah II

' Mr. Watson Taylor has sold the remainder of his house to
Lord Beresford for 10,000 guineas. This sum, added to the
former sales, makes up 35,0001., for the property which cost
Mr. Taylor, in prime cost and repairs, at least 65,000/.
Bets have been made in the clubs,
.3001. to 200/., that Parlia-
liament would be dissolved in six months.

HA No vErt-SQuAnt.—The annual Concert of
Mr. W. KNYVETT took place in the Ancient Concert Rooms
last night. There was a very numerous aid elegant audience,
but if not quite so crowded-as on former occasions, the attrac-
tive counteraction of his Majesty's visit to'Drury-lane Theatre
will sufficiently account for the difference. Mr. W. KNY-
VETT provided an ample and able band, which was led by
Mr. F. CILAiIER. The vocal department was filled by Signor
1)17. BEGNIS and his accomplished Wife, CAIIADOIII, • Miss
VAtlGUA§:;"'"Eixf orr, T. -1;:4 SA LE, W. XNI-..
vElr, and BELLA/sll%. We have not space to enter into par-
ticulars, but it is mere JuStice to say, that the' whole was well
selected and ably performed. We observed with regret that
this Concert was announced to be the last that Mr. W. Klq,-
VETT, intended to preSent to • the public. The KNYVETT
family have always been respected for talents and private.
Worth, and we sincerely hope that they will long enjoy the in-
dependence.which their professional and personal merits have
so deservedly enabled them to acquire.

•
MUSIC.— Mrs. MILLINGTON, inP wife of the
learned• and ingenious Professor,- gave a very gratifying treat
to a numerous party of private friends last night in Blooms-
bury-square. Some professional and musical amateurs, as
well as several literary characters and eminent artists, were
present.• On this occasion Mrs. PATox, mother of the cele-
brated vocal performer, and her other two daughters, displayed
great taste and ability in trios, &c. The talents of the second
daughter arc well known to the public by her performances at
Drury-lane Theatre ; and the third, who is yet but in her
thirteenth year displayed so much science, taste, and such vocal
potvers, as are likely to render her a principal ornament of the
stage: Mr. Hoitsgratified the company with some beautiful airs.
The amiable Hostess gave all possible attention to her numerous
guests, among whom were many elegant females. During the
intervals of the music, waltzing took place. Refreshments
were amply provided, and an elegant collation followed. Music
and waltzing succeeded, and the varied amusements gratified
the company to a late hour.
