THE FUNDS.

The express from Paris this morning is only of conse-
quence in respect to the finances of Spain. Accounts
from Paris state that M. Allendi, Secretary of the Bank
of San Fernando at Madrid, had arrived in Paris to ar-
range with M. de Rothschild for the payment of the di-
vidends on Spanish Stock ; also that the committee ap-
pointed to inquire into the finances of Spain had made
their report to the Queen, and report says that the com-
mittee had recommended the equalization of the interest
on the entire public debt of the kingdom without exception.
Up to the present hour we do not hear of any arrival
from Portugal, but we have accounts by the way of Madrid
that Don Carlos has also submitted and consented to em-
bark at Aldea Gallego with his family and suite.
Consols which left off on Saturday at 92% 3/4 for the ac-
count, opened at the same price this morning, and con-
tinue so with little doing as yet.
Spanish has improved to 4416, Portuguese 7614 N.
Owing to the numerous arrivals we had last week from
all quarters of the globe, we have very few this morning of
consequence.

Consols have receded from 92% 3% to 92% 1/2 for the
cent. Report says something wrong again in the ministry.

HALF-PAST ONE.
Both the English and Foreign Funds have had a very heavy
appearance since the early part of the morning ; Consols,
which were 92%14 for the Account, have receded to
92%1A. The exact cause of this decline is not as yet
known, but attributed to our unsettled local affairs, and
the strong opposition which Ministers are expected to meet
in the House of Lords.

In the early part of the da , Spanish Stock was looking
up, but when it reached 4414 they " banged" the market,
and heavy sales were m e at that price, which caused
the above stock to recede to 43%.
Portuguese Stock may be quoted 7614 1/2.
No arrivals as yet from Portugal.
Accounts have been received from Madeira of the 23d
of May, at which period great excitement prevailed in the
island, owing to a vessel having arrived with the informa-
tion that Don Miguel had left Santarem, and the inhabi-
tants were only kept under by the military.

As a woman of the name of Bell, of Low-
ther-street, was holding a restive horse by the bridle,
on Saturday last, and patting it on the neck to quiet it,
the animal suddenly seized her right hand with its
mouth, and bit her thumb completely off by the second
joint I—Carlisle Journal.
GORMANDIZING.--011 Sunday last, in a
village near this city, a cotton-spinner, who resides in
the neighbourhood of Botchergate, undertook for a
trifling wager (half-a-gallon of ale), to eat two do-
zen of eggs within half an hour ! The eggs were
soon procured, and the hopeful youth commenced his
work, and actually devoured the first dozen in two and
a half minutes, shells and all ! The second dozen (one
of which was rotten) occupied him about five minutes,
—having thus bolted the whole, and nearly a quart of
ale, in less than eleven minutes, to the great amuse-
ment of his very tasteful audience. We understand he
afterwards offered to put by other three dozen in fif-
teen minutes, but the company was perfectly satisfied
of his abilities and declined the treat.—Carlisle
