THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
We have no other arrivals this morning than a Lisbon
mail and the express from Paris. By the former a Lisbon
paper of the sth has been received at the North and South
American Coffee-house by the African, which does not
contain any news. We have only seen one or two private
letters, which are also void of interest, merely stating that
the treaty stipulates that 10,000 Spanish troops are to
march into Portugal. The chief object of information is
the government despatches received by the African, the
contents of which the speculators are very anxious to ascer-
tain ; and, indeed, it is their general opinion this morning,
that Don Miguel has given his consent, and will soon give
the contest over.
It is also stated that the Stag frigate was to take Don
Carlos on board ; but we have been so often deceived by
false assertions for sinister views, and stock jobbing pur-
poses, that we will not venture to give these reports im-
plicit credit without we have goood authority on the subject.
Owing to the general belief that Don Miguel has given
in, which we cannot positively state as yet, the Portuguese
Bonds reached this morning 791, for next time ; at present
they are 783/4 to 79. Spanish have receded to 35i. Con-
sols opened at the price they left off at yesterday, 92i ; 93
for the account.

HALF-PAST ONE.
We have no further information to be depended upon
either from Spain or Portugal ; consequently all the re-
ports circulated this morning are not worth attention.
The despatches received by government have not as yet
transpired.
Spanish Stock, which was 3514, may now be quoted at
351,x, 3/4 ; Portuguese, 791/9 3%.
Consols continue steady at 92% % for the Account.
THREE 0' CL 0 CK.
Consols for the Account, 923/4 %.

The deputations on the English Tithe Bill
will meet on Wednesday the 21st inst. at Brown's
Hotel, Palace-yard, and not on Tuesday as stated in
our paper of yesterday.
A curious circumstance occurred the other
day at Mr. Whitehead's Lodge, Wellingborough :
Mr. W. had been preparing for brewing, and had put
some bean-straw in the furnace as kindling, and after
putting a light to it he was watching the progress of
the flame, when, to his astonishment, a hare burst
through the fire singed very much, and made its escape
with the greatest precipitation, leaving Mr. W. to ru-
menate on so rare an occurrence%
RESISTANCE TO TITHES.—A tumultuous
riot took place last Monday at Dunleer, near Drog-
heda, where a court was held for revising tithe memo-
rials. The assistant barrister was driven away, and
several of the clergymen who attended were most con-
temptuously treated by the populace. The court
was adjourned to a future day.
It is understood that the " Grand Female
Miscellaneous Lodge" will hold a general meeting in
Charlotte-street, Fitzroy-square, on Tuesday, " on
particular business."—Sunday Paper.
THE UNIONS.—We understand that at a
numerous meeting of manufacturers and others, held
on Thursday evening, at Oates's Exchange Hotel,
they came to an unanimous determination to discharge
all the workmen in their employ who would not con-
sent to sign a declaration renouncing their connection
with the trades' union. This resolution was acted on
yesterday by those firms who pay their wages on Fri-
days ; and we hear that between 500 and 600 work-
men received notice to the effect above stated. The
number is expected to be much greater in a day cr
two, as the masters seem resolved to try the strength
of the union, by throwing as many as possible upon
their fluids at once. —Leeds Intelliyencer.
