THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY).

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

Our arrivals this morning are—one French mail, and ship_
letters from New York, Van Diemen's Land Dec. 23 ; Mau-
ritius Jan. 18 ; and Cape of Good hope to Feb. 20.
New York Papers to April 22, are received. We extract
the following :
" STEClE.—Application has been made within a day or two
to the Marine Office in Wall-street, for insurance of a million
of specie from Europe. The application comes through a
Government channel, and is understood to refer to the French
imdemnity.
" PUBLIC RIEVENUE.—The Secretary of the Treasury sent
to the Senate his answer to the call made by the resolution of
Mr. Colhoun, for a statement of the amount of money in the
Treasury. The Secretary states that the receipts to the Trea-
sury during the quarter ending the 31st day of last month,
were—total 10,725,700 dollars, and tharithe amount of public
money in the Treasury (that is the deposit bank), on the 31st
of last month, was 31,895,155 dollars."

By the steam packet arrived from Charleston, we have re-
ceived the Charleston papers, and the latest New Orleans,
and other southern papers. They do not contain intelligence
of much importance. Intelligence had been received from
General Brook, commanding at Green Bay, stating that a
war-belt from the Semenoles is circulating, and that there is
reason to apprehend that these latter Indians may be induced
to commit hostilities against the settlement.
Launceston papers to the 18th of December have been this
day received. A great deal of excitement existed in the co-
lony, in consequence of the murder of Captain Sergeantson.
The particulars had not been known when the' accounts left.
An action had been commenced against the Colonial Times
for a libel upon the Chief Justice.
The news by the telegraph from Spain this morning is
looked upon in the city as of great importance. General Eguia
arrived at Ernani on the 7th instant with a strong reinforce.
ment. His artillery remained there four days, and did not
dare to attack General Evans. On the 11th: instant he made
a precipitate retreat, with his troops and artillery, as likewise
did Don Carlos—owing, it is said, to General Cordova hav-
ing advanced with his army in the direction of Mondragon.
We may therefore expect soon to hear of a desperate battle
between Eguia and Cordova. It is now evident that General
Evans's victory is of greater importance than was at first ima-
gined.
