STOCK EXCHANGE.

" The infamous and unprecedented Imposition which was
praaised yesterday morning on the Right Hon. the Loao
MAYOR, leading, as it did, to his communicating, in Person,
the lutelligenCe of an amicable Adjustment with France, has
occasioned the most serioits mischief in the Stock Exchange,
A Committee of the whole House was convened, and after a
very Lull and animated discussion, all Bargains done. on that
1:lay in the Stock-Exchange, both liar Money and Titnie, were
declared to be Nutt and Voto.
" The businesi of the Stock Exchange was on the instant
put s stop to: a Committee was appointed to investigate the
AcCounts of every Member of the Stuck Exchange, both in
relation to the business transacted on the 4th and 3th instant.
'"
This Comtr ittee is now sitting, and great, hopes are
entertained that the perpetcator of this villainous act will,
through their energy, be brought to light."
'We understand that the Committee came to the'
:resolution of offering a reward of soool. for the

discovery of any person or persons concerned in

this most nefarious transaetion. The LORD MAYOR
likewise, with a mo*t honouiable spirit, has otDred

Soo Guineas reward for the attainment of the same
°Nat, ' Bills are posted up all over the City this
morning to this circa. We most sincerely hope
that some discovery may be made of the wretches
who could prance so infamous
.a fraud ul►on• the
Public..

We have heard this morning, that the Authority
of the Committee of the Stock-Exchange is not
Competent to nullify Bargains for real Stock, unless
both parties agree to their being considered as void.
In this case, the transaetions of yesterday will pro.
bably furnish matter of discubsion in our courts of

NOTHING has yet arrived that can definitively
relieve the Public Mind Tram its state of anxious
suspense ; but the belief becomes every hour more
general, that the issue is unfavourable to the hopes
of a continuance of Peace. Several Letters written
an Saturday and Sunday 'by those very ncJarly
conne&ed with the British Ambassadur, state,
without any reservation, his Lordship's firm
intention of quitting Paris on Tuesday night, or
early on Wednessday morning. His Lordship did

not attend' the Consular Court on Sunday last.
The
,impression this morning seems to be, that
if his "Lordship was not himself to leave
Paris at the time above-mentioned, he ivould
have' dispatched a Messenger, who mint have
arrived here by this time. The conclusion is,
that be must have left Paris, and will send
a Messenger from Boulegne or Ca/air, to announce
his arrival at one or other of those places on• his
way horir. We are unwilling to give a posi-
tive Opinion on a point to which some 'degree of un.
certainty must still attach, but it is with pain
we remark, hat every degree of probability
is against the continuance of Peace. 'General Air-
DR VOSSY, we understand, had every thing packed
up ready for his departure at a moment's notice since
Vv.vdnesilay last.
