THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
Posted at the North and South American Coffee-house :
" Falmouth, April 20.
" There is a small cutter just arrived from Lisbon.
Napier has taken all the northern provinces, except Fi-
gueira, which I have no doubt, ere this, is taken. It was
expected that an attack would have been made on Santarem,
but it has not, as yet, taken place."
From the French papers received this morning :
" The Minister of the Interior has issued the following
circular to the Prefect of the Police :

" Sir—l am informed that they are impressing on the
minds of the working classes that government is disposed
to put into force the law of the 10th inst. on the associa-
tions for mutual assistance, to put down the union
between the working classes which have been formed
by authority. I invite you immediately to make known
to the delegates of the various societies, authorised by the
administration, that I have no intention to trouble in any
shape the existence and utility of these associations.

Signed " GISQUEL.' "
The above, no doubt, applies to the benefit clubsat Paris.
The accounts from Madrid of the 13th inst. state, that
the Spanish Government has acknowledged Donna Maria
as Queen of Portugal, and also entered into a treaty, offen-
sive and defensive, with Portugal.
Accounts from Lisbon of the 14th inst. state, that Gen.
Avila's progress in Tras os Montes was very satisfactory.
General Bacon had returned from the army, and gives a
very favourable account of it ; he was to return again on
the following day. It was expected by the 25th that
some movement would take place before Santarem. A
report prevailed that Napier had entered Figueira, but it
was not confirmed.
An old Lisbon mail has arrived.

The express from Pales this morning is of minor im-
portance. The papers continue to be filled with further
details from Lyons.

THE FUNDS.

Yesterday the city was in a state of agitation, and much
gloom prevailed, caused by the procession of the trades'
union, as it was generally expected that some mischief
would take place ; but this morning the city has another
appearance—more life and animation, as the immense pro-
cession passed off without the least riot or confusion ; and,
indeed, we may say that we never witnessed such a nume-
rous assemblage of persons conducted with so much order.
This termination of so eventful a day has operated on
the Funds this morning. Consols, which left off yesterday
at 90% % for the account, and 901 % for money, may
be quoted at present 90% 91. Owing to the favourable
information from Lisbon, the Foreign Market is in a state
of improvement. Spanish, 333/4 ; Portuguese done at
731,4, at present 72% 73.
We have no arrivals this morning of ship letters.

HALF-PAST ONE.
We have again a report of a Spanish loan, which it is sup-
posed will be contracted for by the great city capitalist. It
is also stated that the Spanish Government is on the eve
of acknowledging the South American republics.
Consols are 90% to 911 h, for Account.
Spanish has improved to 34% ; Portuguese 723% 73.

The Observer of yesterday afternoon, price
Seven-pence, contained upwards of two folio columns
of particulars of that day's Movements of the Trades'
Unions' March from Copenhagen-fields to Kennington..
common. A Monday afternoon edition of the Ob-
server, price seven-pence, is regularly published at the
Office, No. 169, Strand, by G. Goodger, which edi-
tion of the Observer is best adapted for the country
and readers abroad. The Clerical Intelligence of
Oxford and Cambridge is also officially published in
Monday afternoon's Observer. The Observer is a
strictly impartial journal, neither Whig, Tory, nor
Radical.

About eight o'clock yesterday evening, as
the Earl of Lonsdale was crossing from the House of
Lords to Mr. Bankes's, of Old Palace-yard, where he
was going to dine, he was knocked down by the pole
of a carriage, which dreadfully lacerated his Lordship's
'under lip. Mr. McCann, surgeon, of Parliament-
street, was immediately sent for, who promptly attended,
and sewed up the wound. His Lordship was then
conveyed home in his carriage,
