THE FUNDS.

As we stated yesterday, in our City article, that the
King of Holland and the three Northern Powers were
waiting the issue of the Reform Bill before they ratified
the 24th Article, appears to be corroborated by the
French papers, which states as follows :—" Count Orloff
decidedly waits the result of the decision of the House of
Lords on the Reform Bill, and the ratifications of Prussia
and Russia will not take place until after that period : in
consequence of which the Protocol will remain open until
the 15th inst.

This night, or to-morrow morning, the die is expected
to be cast on the Reform Bill, which we hear will only be
carried by a small majority. At all events, let the majority
he small or great, Ministers will ascertain their strength in
the Lord:, and if they are obliged to force it through
the Ciiminittee, no doubt some new Peers will be made.

The greatest anxiety and eagerness prevails in the City,
for the forthcoming few hours, when the long contested
question will meet its fate. In the interim of this tur-
moil our Funds are gradually increasing. Consols, which
left off yesterday at 83i for the account, opened at the
same price, since whisk, they have got up to 83% 84,
with an apparent good market.
To-morrow will prove 4 busy day in the City; all will
be downcast, or all with cheerful countenances.

In the Foreign Market Dutch stock has rather im-
proved, owing to their coming higher from Holland 42i.

HALF-PAST ONE.

The Journal des Debats of Wednesday states, by ac-
counts from Rome, of the 29th of March, that the tri-
coloured flog has been taken down from the fortress of
Ancona, by order of the French Minister ; and it was ex-
pected that the greater part of the Austrian troops would
quit the Legation, which would prove to Europe the
amicable relations between the Powers.

Thu)! write from the frontiers of Russia, that it is now
resolved upon that the armies shall retire into the various
provinces, and more confidence prevails in the pacific
system of M. Perier.

An improvement has taken place in Consols since the
early past of the morning, when they were 93i for the
account; at present they may be quoted 94 to it, and for
money 93i 94.
The report from the west end is, that the majority in
the House of Lords on the Reform Bill will be from six
to eight—nothing is yet certain on the business.
In the Foreign Market Dutch and Greek Stock have
improved, Dutch 43k, Greek 29 to SO.

WHITEFEET IN THE PRECINCTS OF THE
CITY.— A party of six armed men were observed in the neigh-
bourhood of the black quarry at 4 o'clock yesterday. From thence
three of them passed the borders of the city ,close toLadyCarrick's
residence, and went off through the fields towards Castle Blun-
den. Before they reached Lady Carrick's, information had
been lodged with Captain Tuckey, who immediately sent off
parties of horse and foot police in pursuit, but none of the
party had been taken at the hour we went to press.—Kilkenny
Journal.

Mr. Perceval holds a prayer-meeting in his
house every Thursday evening, to which rich and poor have
equally access. This meeting is numerously attended, and the
company are generally favoured with the presence of the Rev.
E. Irving and Miss Carsdale, the celebrated performer in the
unknown tongue.—Christian Advocate.
