THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
Our arrivals this morning are French and Flanders mails;
also, a mail from Mexico by the Eclipse, which sailed on the
9th of May from Vera Cruz, and on the 26th of May from
Havannah. She brings 400,000 dollars—a part for the Min-
ing Company.
The political news by the above conveyance is of the same
description as previously received by the American papers.
Santa Anna was proceeding at the head of five or six thou.
sand men to attack the insurgents ; but the prevailing opinion
was, that affairs would be settled without their coming to blows.
We have no continental news beyond what the express from
Paris brings from the theatre of war in Spain, which are of a
very contradictory nature, and not to be depended upon.
THE FUNDS.
Both the British and Foreign Markets have a buoyant ap-
pearance this morning, and business is doing in Spanish and
Portuguese Stocks.
Consols, which left off yesterday at 911 4 for the Account,
opened at the same price, since which they reached 92—at
present may be quoted 92 sellers ; Exchequer Bills 27 28 ;
India Bonds 7 9 prem. ; Bank Stock 216 ; India Stock
260 261.
Some animation prevails in the Foreign Market this morn-
ing, particularly in Spanish and Portuguese Securities, which
have improved. Spanish, which left off 44 43, opened at
454, reached 45k, at present 451. Spanish Scrip maintains
the price of 14 discount ; Portuguese 851 86 ; Portuguese
Three per Cents., 574 581 ; Mexican 361 I.
The French prices come higher. Five per Cents, 108 50 ;
Three per Cents., 78 45; Cortes, 341; Coupons 171.
. HALF-PAST ORE.
The Funds continue very buoyant. Consols are 92 to i for
the Account. The improvement is attributed to the expecta-
tion that the Quarter's Revenue will turn out favourable; also,
in the course of next week, the dividends will be paid, when
money will be more plentiful in the commercial interest.
Exchequer Bills, 28 30 ; India Bonds, 8 prem. ; India
Stock, 261 ; Bank Stock, 216 i.
The Foreign Securities maintain the morning's improved
prices. Spanish Bonds, 45 ; Scrip, 14 discount ; Portuguese,
854 864; Three per Cents. Portuguese, 574; Colombia, 36+;

IRON PACKET.—Another iron packet, built by
Mr.. Fairbairn, of Manchester, was launched at Selby, on Sa-
turday.

CLERICAL- JUSTICES.—The Rev. Mr. Clare, the
parson magistrate, who humanely allowed the military to fire
on the people, admitted, on his examination, that he has two
livings, and resided on neither—that his magisterial fees
averaged from 800/. to 1,000/. a-year; and that, when he
could rely on the parties, he was in the habit of granting blank
summonses, on receiving his fees. Of course he pockets the
income of his two livings also. Who performs the duties does
not appear.
AN APOTHECARY'S BILL.--Ina case tried in
the Dublin Court of Commons Pleas on Monday week, an
action was brought by an apothecary for medicines furnished
and professional services rendered to an aged gentleman of
93 ; the bill was the object of much amusement. The bill of
particulars for 3 years' attendance amounted to 4,707/. 155.3 d.;
for one of the years alone it was 3,599/.0.5. 3d. ; and one of
the months it reached the enormous amount of 485/. 19s. 5d.,
or an average quantity of physic, &c., daily of about sixteen
pounds sterling in value; as many as eight enemas were
charged for in one day ; the number of visits in the bill was
1,703. The Jury found for the plaintiff, 8001. One of the
curious facts elicited on the trial was the statement made by a
Mr. Lusack, who described himself as having attended one of
the Dublin hospitals (Stevens's) for 22 years, and who never
yet read an apothecary's bill in his life.

A number of men are now employed in Greenwich
Park, by the Commissioners of Woods and Forests, to ascer-
tain the nature of the ground in the line of road of the Lon-
don and Gravesend Railway—should a tunnel be preferred
by the inhabitants to the splendid and ornamental design pro-
posed by the Company, at an expense of 70,0001.—which
sum, we understand, has been offered to be placed at the dis-
posal of the Woods and Forests, in any plan that may be con-
sidered more ornamental.

FAMINE IN ERRIS, COUNTY OF MAYO.-Frorn
an authentic source we have discovered that upwards of 6,000
persons, in the barony of Erris alone, have, on an average,
but five days provision on hand ; and in that number there are
106 persons who can command but half a hundred of potatoes
amongst them, and 300 without any, whose sole dependence
is on chance shell-fish and sea-weed, a sample of which we
have seen.—Hibernian United Service Journal.

CRIMINAL OFFENDERS IN IRELAND.--The fol-
lowing return shows the number of criminal offenders in Ire-
land from 1828 to 1834, both inclusive, committed for trial,
and the comparative number convicted :—ln 1828, committed
14,683, convicted 9,269 ; 1829, committed 15,271, convicted
9,449 ; 1836, committed 15,794, convicted 9,902; 1831, com-
mitted 16,192, convicted 9,605 ; 1832, committed 16,036, con-
victed 9,759; 1833, committed 17,819, convicted 11,444; 1834,
committed 21,381, convicted 14,253.
MELANCHOLY OCCURRENCE.—A very melan-
choly occurrence took place in a stone quarry belonging to the
Marquis of Breadalbane, in the vicinity of Kenmore. Whilst a
man was in the act of stemming a shot, the iron needle with
which he was working struck fire, and the shot immediately
exploded, killing him on the spot, besides seriously injuring
four other men.—Ayr Observer.
MARRIAGES.—The number of marriages cele-
brated since the commencement of the present month, in
Glasgow and suburbs, far exceeds anything that has occurred
in former years. On the evening of the first Friday of June,
the demand for vehicles at the respective posting establish-
ments was much greater than could be met ; and numerous
wedding parties were subjected to the most mortifying disap-
pointments. Carriages could not be had for love or for
money in the early part of the evening. The number who
have, within the last two weeks, " entered on life," may be
stated, at least, at 500.

According to a statistical report, lately published
by order of the Minister of the Interior of Naples, the popu-
lation of that city, which, on the Ist of January, 1834, amounted
to 358,356, was, on the Ist of January, 1835, reduced to
355,386. The number of births in 1834 was 14,137, while
the deaths were 17,107. The diminution of 2,976 in the po.
pulation is attributed to an extraordinary epidemic, peculiarly
affecting children. The number of marriages within the year
was 2,551.

means of obtaining a respectable livelihood to hundreds
of deserving artists rand amateurs, who are now re-
stricted from the exercise-of -their talents and industry.
It will also materially assist in infusing a healthy and
cheerful tone into the mass of English society,
particularly among the middling and working classes.
There are fec so grossly sensual as to prefer the
gloomy atmosphere of the tap:room and the beer-shop,
to a social bench on the green, encircled by the
young, the interesting, and unvitiated of both sexes,
joined hand in hand in a dance to the sound of the
violin or the bagpipe.

We have received the whole of the Paris papers of
Wednesday. The Messager states that M. de TAL.
LEYRAND has had another audience of the KING.
The conference was long. It is said that M. DE
TALLEYRAND, in almost all his conversations with
the KING, reproaches him with suffering it to be seen
that he takes too much interest in the affairs of Spain.
Whatever may be the party that triumphs on the other
side of the Pyren6es, (says the veteran Statesman its
first care will be to ensure the friendship of Prance.
