THE FUNDS.

The election of a new Member for the city at present oc-
cupies the attention of the citizens, and it is anticipated that
Mr. Crawford will be the elected Member.

In respect to intelligence we have none to the present hour.
Consols opened at the price they left off yesterday, 891 for
the Account, and may now be quoted at 89!$ to lA, with little
doing, Portuguese Scrip rather heavy at 23 14.
HALF PAST ONE.
We have no fresh arrivals from Lisbon; but we hear that
Saldanha, in a letter to his friend here, states that the two
French regiments at Oporto positively refused to fight in the
attack of the 25th. This is attributed to their being ill.treated
after General Solignac took his departure. We now under-
stand that the two unknown persons who landed at Cowes
were private individuals
At twelve o'clock Mr. Crawford was 599 a-head of Mr,
Kemble.

A great deal is said in the city respecting the correspon.
deuce between Lord Althorp and the Bank Directors. We
must remind the public, that in the time of Lord Liverpool
he wrote a letter to them, saying that a Charter was out
of fashion ; and Mr. Huskisson was still more violent ; in
consequence of which an opinion prevailed that Lord Althorp
would not consent to grant them a charter. Therefore it
would be more prudent for the I)irectors to accept whatever
they can obtain from Ministers.

Consols have been done at 8914 ; at present they are 89 ),;,,
with little doing.
The letter published from General Bourmont has 11.^.‘i some
effect on the Portuguese Scrip, which towered to 23 premium,
at present it may be quoted at 231 ; Spanish 2.`,'t4 34 ;in other
Securities little doing.

Mr. Kemble's proposer, and several of the Committee polled

WHIRLWIIsID.—On the afternoon of Mon-
day week, after a still and sultry day, an uncommon
agitation suddenly ensued in the atmosphere. A pitchy
black and dense cloud g,thered a little to the north-east
of Perth, and in an instant a tempestuous current of wind
sometimes from ono, and at other times apparently
from every point of the compass. The dust, which durine
the intense heat and stillness of several preceding days,
had accumulated and rested on the public roads, was
drifted along the streets and thoroughfares, particularly
M the suburbs, and at various points was suddenly drawl,
in rotatory columns up into the air. The clothes bleach-
ing on the North Inch were blown into the utmost
disorder, and several articles were carried up perpendicu-
larly, to the height of 100 feet, and alighted again nest
the spot from which they had be,ri thus displaced. In a
few minutes the cloud gradually dispelled, without an)
main, which its appearance seemed to portend, and the air
settled down to its former etilliaels....Edinburgh Nveyaing
Courant.
