THE FUNDS.

Money concerns at present in the City attract the attention
of the public, owing to the Bank contracting their circulation
and discounts ; as also the disposing of Exchequer Bills, when
a favourable opportunity offers at certain periods. But the
want of money is not so great on British Securities as on the
Foreign, as the Bankers and Capitalists will not advance on
the latter, owing to the immense speculations which of late
have been carried on in Spanish and South American Stocks by
a certain class of persons who cannot pay the differences, should
a considerable fall take place in them.
This is settling day in the Foreign Market, and fluctuations
to a considerable ex tenChave taken place in most of them.
In Spanish Bonds the extreme fluctuation, is about 6 per
cent.; in Spanish Scrip. 4 per cent.; in Portuguese'll to 2 per
cent. ; New Portuguese about 21- per cent. ; Colombian 7
per cent.—consequently it will be a very heavy account to
adjust.

Spanish Bonds, 661 ; Spanish Scrip. 6} prem. ; Portu-
guese, 1001 ; Mexican, 46k; Colombian, 461 4 ; Bra-

LONDON MISSIONARY SOClETY.—Yesterday the
annual meeting of this institution was held at Exeter Hall,
which was thronged, at an early hour in the morning, by a
numerous host of the Society's benefactors and friends.
W. A. Hankcy, Esq., having taken the chair, addressed the
meeting at great length, urging every individual, for the sake
of Him, " who, though he was rich, for our sakes became
poor, that we, through his poverty, might become rich," to
evidence their love to him, by assisting the London Mis-
sionary labours, that those to whom were committed the affairs
of the institution might go forth to their labour with increased
exertion during the ensuing year. After a long Report had
been read by the Secretary, which was very cordially re-
