Now we are furnished with the long-looked-for report of
the Committee at Madrid, which grants to the Spanish Cortes
Bond-holders even more than they anticipated, what effect has
it had on the market ? Instead of improving Spanish Stock
it has caused it to recede—Spanish, which left off yester-
days 32 54k, opened this morning at 534-, and at present is 54.
Naturally there must be some kind of alarm felt by the
bondholders respecting the improper conduct on the part of
the Finance Committee, in " robbing Peter to pay Paul," and
no doubt they expect that the French Government will not be
sorossly duped of their just debt.
Portuguese Stock has somewhat improved, owing to the re-
eons of the death of Don Pedro being contradicted by the
Lisbon mail, although his health is in a very precarious state.
Consols opened at the price they left off, 901 .3- for, the Ac-

THREE O'CLOCK

GRAND MILITARY SPECTACLE IN HYDE PARK.
—( Tins DAY. )—This morning, at nine o'clock, the Cold-
stream Guards marched into Hyde Park, for the purpose of
going through a grand field-day upon a complete new system
of exercise, similar to the light infantry companies. On
marching into Hyde Park they commenced their evolutions
near the Serpentine River by an extended line of firing. The
fog was so dense that it was impossible to observe any of the
troops, and the astonishment of the passers by was considerably
heightened by a continual roar of musketry, extended to Ken-
sington-gardens. The length of time the firing was kept up
drew together a concourse of persons to witness the spectacle,
and on the fog clearing off, which it did very suddenly, the
sight was most imposing, and the evolutions, which the troops
performed with great precision, proved the excellency of the
new system of military practice. The men appeared in high
spirits on the occasion, and their movements gave universal
satisfaction to the officers present.

It is reported that his Grace the Duke of Gloucester
is about to pay a visit to Sir Clifford Constable, of Burton
Constable, intending to be present at the Hull Musical Festival.

CHAItD.—Mr. T. Wakelv, one of the late unsuc-
cessful candidates for Finsbury, and the well-known editor of
the Lancet, is on a visit to Membury, his native place, a few
miles from this town, where his father, a gentleman of great
respectability, and several of his brothers reside.
THE THAMES TUNNEL.—Mr. Brunel stated at
one of the evening meetings of the British Association at
Edinburgh, that the Government had consented to advance a
sum which would be sufficient for the completion of the Thames
Tunnel, and this announcement was received with cheers.
It was well said by him that called a good office
that was done harshly, a stony piece of bread ; it is necessary
for him that is hungry to receive it ; but it almost choaks him
in the going down.
