HANOVER-SQUARE ROOMS.

The first subscription ball took place on Monday night, and
although many of the subscribers who were at the Duchess of
Kent's party were prevented being present, it was most nume •
rously attended, but nothing could be more select ; and from
the scrupulous care adopted to keep these balls so, we are as-
sured of their full success, and the fashionable world will duly
appreciate the advantage of the superintendence of a master
of the ceremonies, and under such distinguished patronesses.
The company began to assemble soon after ten o'clock. The
Marchioness Dowager of Salisbury and her party were con-
ducted by Mr. Marshall to the Royal box appropriated for the
Ladies Patronesses. Dancing then cemmenced. Weippert's
band was in attendance, and made a happy selection of quad-
rilles and waltzes, particularly those from La Juive, Le
Bronze Cheval, La Puritanne, and the Moscow Waltz and
Neapolitan Galopes. Among the company present were—
the Marchioness Dowager of Salisbury, the Earl of Hillsbo-
rough, Lord Burghersh, Lord W. Lennox, Sir Burgess
Camac, the Hon. W. West, Sir George Tuite ; Ladies Forbes
and Anson ; Mesdames Camac, Eden, Bennett, Bowen, Tor-
rington, Drummond, Fitzgerald, Harriott, Jenkins, Stackpole,
Walter, Roden, Porter, Foley, Wilkinson, Simpson ; Misses
Anson, Bennett, Chaloner, two Mollings, two Tuites, Walter,
Porter, two Barings, two Gages, Humphreys; Colonels Sir
Richard Armstrong, Bagnold, Harriott, and Green ; Captains
Coulthard, Edward Meade, Gossett, Mayne, Richardson, Bat-
tersby, Johnson, Smith:; Messrs. Archbald, Bennett, Bruce,
Bond, Camac, Cuthbert, two Dorringtons, Codrington, M.P.,
Fitzgerald, Fisher, Gaselee, Grant, Hunter, Jenkins, Luke,
Mollings, Maddock, Pemberton, Scriven, Sterling, Smythe,
Smith, Sloughton, Shaw, Vere, Roden, Nicholson, Monro,
Wilkinson, &c. &c. With the concurrence of the Ladies Pa-
tronesses the next ball will be on Friday, the 15th instant, in-
stead of the 18th, so as not to be lessened in interest by the
third party of the Duchess of Kent's, or interfere with a
Charity ball announced elsewhere.

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

The Money Market during the whole of yesterday was
steady, without any occurrence of the least consequence. The
decline in India Bonds and Exchequer Bills, is entirely owing
to the operation of the public Consols, which closed at 921 for
Account, and opened at the same price this morning. Exche-
quer Bills, 31 33; India Bonds, 12 14 ; Spanish Bonds, 70k i ;
Spanish Scrip, 10i- i prem. ; Portuguese, 101 102.
HALE•P AST ONE.

Hostilities have commenced between the Bank of England
and London and Westminster Bank. The former has
filled a Bill in Chancery against the London and Westminster
Bank, to prevent it from accepting any bills. The London
and Westminster Bank have put in their answer this morning.
The British, as well as the Foreign funds have continued
during the morning stationary, with little business doing.
Consols may be quoted 92:1 for the Account ; for Money,

EASTBOURNE.--The account given in some quar-
ters of the meeting of agricultural labourers residing in the
parishes of this union which took place at Jevington Holt a
short time back, was much exaggerated. The number of per-
sons assembled did not exceed 300; and the poor woman who
cut her throat is still alive, and gives a very different reason
from that stated the rash attempt.—,Brighton Guardian.
