THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
Our arrivals this morning are a Lisbon mail, by the Viper,
sailed on the 12th inst., one French, and one Hamburgh
mail. A French mail is still due with the express from
Paris of Wednesday.
The mail from Lisbon is about the same date, or one day
later, than our previous accounts from Lisbon by the Soho
steamer, and cannot, therefore, bring any confirmation or
contradiction of the reported insurrection at Lisbon on the
16th inst., which is totally disbelieved in the city, owing
to the contradiction in the dates. The vessel sailed on the
16th and the passenger who landed at. Dartmouth gives ac-
counts of what happened on the 17th at Lisbon, which
was immediately detected by the city speculators, and in
consequence of which the report had not the least effect
on the Portuguese securities.
The express from Paris brings accounts that Don Car-
los was on the 10th inst. at the castle of Jaureguy ; at
Bayonne it was reported that he was in the neighbour-
hood of Mendragon, and Zumalacarreguy in the direction
of Culaherra. The express does not bring any later in-
formation from Madrid than previously received, but no
doubt, in the course of the day we shall have another ex-
press from Paris and Madrid, with later intelligence.
Our private information from Hamburg this morning
states that several failures have taken place in the above
city, particularly a Hebrew firm, for about seventy or eighty
thousand pounds, in the wool trade.

THE•. FUNDS.

The mania for speculating in Spanish stock is again re-
vived this morning. Spanish, which left off at 53ii, has
reached 53i 54, owing to a report that a city capitalist had
got the Spanish loan. Portuguese 931. Consols continue
at 91 to for account.
The French-mail due has not yet arrived.

The foll Owing are extracts from Jamaica Papers of the
31st August':—
" His Excellency Lord Sligo has been very unfortunate in
his proclamation to the negroes, and to him (without in-
tending, however, the slightest disrespect) may be attri-
buted all the inconveniences, jarrings, and squabbles, that
have occurred relative to the distribution of the four and a
half hours, between the master and the apprentice. If the
latter had never been told that he was entitled to have the
half of Friday, he never would have expected it.
" The valuers appointed to the district of St. Catherine
and St. Thomas-in-the-Vale, commence their labours this
morning." _ _

Ex tractof a letter from Montego Bay, 26th of August :
—" The apprentices are going constantly to the Magis-
trates with some frivolous complaint against their masters."
From St. James, 28th August :—" The new system in
working on this estate is as well as I can expect ; I feel
tolerably satisfied."

From Port Antonio, 26th August :—" An inquest took
place owing to an overseer having shot a person, and
wounded two others."

We regret to learn that an insurrection has broken out
at St. Kitt's. The particulars we have not heard ; but
it appears the deluded wretches, on being fired on, charged
en masse, with the intention of overwhelming the military.
They were, however, received with coolness, and bayonetted
on the spot.

Up to the present time we do not hear of any express
having arrived from Paris, although Spanish Stock is look-
ing up and has reached 54 to 4 ; Portuguese 83i.
Consols continue steady with little doing at 91 to k for
the Account.

Accounts received to-day from Barbadoes, Sept. 8, say
all was quiet at St. Kites.

The city of Exeter was thrown into a state of great
excitement on Friday afternoon, by intelligence being brought
that the two Houses of Parliament were in flames at the time
of the mail leaving London. By a singular coincidence, an
important officer of each house was at the very moment in our
Courtenay, Esq., Clerk of the House of Lords, and
J, H. Ley, Esq., Clerk of the House of Commons. The in-
ttlligence was communicated to the former gentleman while
residing in the Civil Court at the Sessions at the castle. Both
wntlemen in an hour or two afterwards were on their road to
lAndon.— Western Luminary.
