THE FUNDS.

The report, late yesterday afternoon, of the arrival of
the Echo steamer for Portugal is not correct, she was
only to be despatched if some important event took place;
therefore we may conclude, that up to the sth inst. Lis-
bon was not attacked by Bourmont.
Consols leq off yesterday at 88,i 1 for Account, and
opened heavy this morning at 811, with little doing.
The meeting of the Northern Powers has had some
effect on ,the Market. Although it now appears
that the Government of France has recognized Donna
Maria, the Emperor of Russia will not follow the
example of England and France; therefore, it is obvious
that Don Miguel has a good friend behind the curtain,
who no doubt assists him with the needful to continue the
war, but Bourmont must be quick in his movements
against Lisbon ; otherwise, he will meet with the same
fate as he did at Oporto.

In the Foreign Market nothing doing, except i❑ Por-
tuguese Scrip, done at 20 premium. The recognition by-
France of Donna Maria has given the Scrip a lift.

HALF-PAST ONE.
The general topic of conversation in the City and on
the Royal Exchange, entirely relates to the affairs of Por-
tugal, and the advance of Bourmont on Lisbon ; and in
the interval of further arrivals from that quarter, the
great city speculators are amusing themselves with betting
(we have seen two beta laid, each of 100 pounds to ten
pounds) that Bourmont would not take Lisbon this day
three months.

We understand that Verstolk Van Soelen, the Dutch
Ambassador, is going to return to Holland OH Siturday
❑eat, disgusted with the procrastination of the Conference.
Dedel remains here.

Consols continue heavy at BS-1- for the Account, with
little or nothing doing.
In the Foreign Market the only speculation is in Por-
tuguese Scrip, which has receded 1 per cent.—from 20 to
19 premium.

No American Papers yet receive.]. The private letters
state that some troubles prevailed in the mining districts
of Mexico.

On Thursday last, at eight in the morning,
thirty-five young pigeons, belonging to the members of a
society of pigeon-fanciers at Antwerp, were sent off from
Paris, and, notwithstanding the wind and rain, one of
these winged messengers reached the dovecot of its owner,
M. Grmninge, at two in the afternoon. Before four o'clock
eighteen of the birds had arrived. Considering the state
of the atmosphere, and the age of the birds, this result is
very remarkable.

DOULOGNE-SUR-MER, SEPT B.—A case

the part of the complainant, a question arose as to the

Court decided that the hotel keeper should indemnify the
