CITY, TWELTE 0' CL 0 CK.
A Lisbon mail has arrived, which sailed on the 6th of Fe-
bruary ; a Buenos Ayres mail, which sailed on the 21st of No-
vember ; and a Itio Janeiro Mail, which sailed on the 15th Dec.
Accounts have been received of the sudden loss of the Thetis
frigate, off Rio Janeiro, with one million of dollars on board
—twenty of the crew were drowned. She was lost in five fa-
thoms water. Three ships of war were round her, with the
Admiral.

(From the Rio Paper of the 2d December.)
His Imperial Majesty the Emperor, on the occasion of the
closing of the General Legislative Extraordinary Assembly, on
the SOth November, thus addressed them :
" August and Worthy Representatives of the Nation,—l
have come to close this Extraordinary Session, and commend
each of the Houses separately for their faithful execution
of the sixty-first Article of the Constitution of the Empire
The Criminal Code, the Law for Receipt and Expenditure, the
Law for the fixing. of the Land Fote_s and that of Sea, arc stf i.
cient and unequivocal proofs of the interest which the General
Assembly takes. Sorry am I, however, that during the ordinary
Session nothing could be done towards the bettering of the circu-
lating medium, which has been the cause of so much evil to
Brazil. I hope that the General Assembly, on the ensuing ordi-
nary Session, will undertake the settlement of a business so im-
portant, urgent, and vital, on which depends the welfare of my
faithful subjects, the consolidation of the monarchical constitu-
tional system, and the glory of the General Assembly. The Ses-
sions is closed."

The accounts by the Buenos Ayres mail arc rather of an un-
favourable nature. A trifling insurrection took place a short
distance from Buenos Ayres, but great fear was entertained that
one of a more serious description would happen in the capital.
Exchange 7d. looking up; business very dull,
Accounts from Warsaw, of the 31st of January, state that the
Diet, and the two Chambers united, have appointed a National
Government, composed of Prince Czartoriski, the President ;
Vincente Nemoyesthe, Morauothe, Stanislas, Barzellow, and
Joachim Ledewel. Prince Michael Radzivill is Commander-in.
Chief, and has left Warsaw for the army.
Accounts from Madrid state that every thing has taken a mi-
litary appearance there; but the Treasury is empty, and nothing
can be done without money,
The information from Constantinople says that the Turks are
taking advantage of the Polish revolution to ro-commence hos.
tilities.

THE FUNDS.
The express from Paris brings the French Budget, in which the
Minister of Finance states," That our armaments are sufficiently
imposing either to ensure peace or repel gloriously any aggres-
sion ; but we have, however, a well-founded hipe that Europe
will soon reduce her forces to their ordinary establishment, and
that we may also be at liberty t 9 reduce ours to the state which
our safety and dignity may require, on a scale of peace."
This pacific language, held forth by the French Minister, had
some effect on the Funos in the early part of the morning, as
well as the generl opinion that MinisterS had entirely given up
the idea of the haalf per cent. at
transfers in the funds. Consols,

It is generally reported in the City that the tobacco scheme
in the Minister's Budget will end this evening in smoke ; and it
is said, instead of the tax being ti,ken oft' tobacco, the assessed
taxes will be reducc4l a,s well as the tax on soap : it is also re-
ported that a tax of two per cent. is to be laid on woperty, in-.
stead of the half per cent on transfers in the .Stocks.
