THE FUNDS.

But little importance is attached to the accounts received
from Liverpool respecting the large vessel seen by Captain
Arbuthnot. Had she been the President it is supposed that
signals would have been made that the passengers were safe.
The British funds are still in a stagnant state.

HALF-PAST ONE.

Although this is shutting day for Consols, the British Funds
remain inactive, and up to the present time there is not a fea-
ture in either of the markets worth the least attention.

Money is tight to-day ; to-morrow being the 4th of the
month, a number of commercial bills become due.

Consols are a shade better than in the earlier part of the
morning, 901 for the Account ; for Money not quite so good,
89,1, have been 90; Exchequer Bills lower, 12 7 8 premium ;
Bank Stock 168 i ; India stock, 251 ; India Bonds 1.3 prem.

TRAGICAL OCCURRENCE. This morning,
about half-past one, a violent screaming was heard to proceed
from the first floor of the house of a hairdresser named Nurse,
in Church-street, Blackfriars-road. Shortly after a female
threw up the window-sash, and was immediately precipitated
to the pavement beneath. She was taken up perfectly insen-
sible, her skull most dreadfully fractured, and her hands very
severely cut. The poor creature was placed in a cab and con-
veyed to Barthidomew's Hospital, where she expired shortly
afterwards. From subsequent inquiries it was ascertained that
the unfortunate deceased was a singer at the George, in Char-
lotte-street, and had not been home many minutes before the
fatal event happened.

THE SOLICITOR-GENERAL A CANDIDATE
FOR THE CITY OF WORCESTER.-It is with feelings of un-
mixed gratification we announce tothe Reformers of Worcester
that Sir Thomas Wilde, her Majesty's Solicitor-General, will
offer himself as one of the Candidates for the Representation of
this city on the Liberal interest at the next election. The
high talents and equally high attainments of this gentleman,
whether at the bar or in the legislature of his country, his
brilliant and well won reputation as a forensic and Parliamen-
tary orator, hi, skill in debate, the,acuteness of his perceptions.
the clearness of his head, and the well-recognised solidity of
his judgment, eminently qualify him not only for the duties
of his highly• responsible office, but will r.nder him a repre-
sentative of whom the ancient and faithful city will have just
cause to be proud. To entertain a doubt of his election by
a triumphant demonstration in his favour, would be to libel
the hearts and understandings of the citizens of Worcester,
who, if they could not form some appreciation of such a man,
must be Bceo.ims indeed. The Reformers of all grades will t ally
round Sir Thomas Wilde.

SUDDEN DEATH FROM EXCITEMENT.—On
Tuesday of ; crnoon, a married woman, named Ann Hart, ap-
peared at Worship-street Police-court to support a summons
against a woman named Stevens, whom she charged with
having used abusive and threatening language towards her.
The defendant, however, not only rebutted the charge; but ad-
duced satisfactory evidence to prove that the complainant was
the aggressor ; upon which Mr, Bingham, the sitting Mitgis.
trate, required the husband °tithe latter to enter into his re-
cognizance for his wife's good behaviour. The complainant
left the Court in a very perturbed and excited state, and upon
returning home she sent out for some rum, after drinking
which she retired ii,to a back yard, where she was found lying
quite dead soon afterwards. Medical assistance was promptly
ql-ine(l, but it was of no avail. The deceased was
