THE FUNDS.,

We have no arrivals of ship letters, or any fresh infor•
mation from Portugal, this morning. A vessel from Lisboa
is on Lloyd's books, but we cannot ascertain as yet if sio
is of a recent dat.-.

The funds are heavy ; Consols, which opened at th,
same price they left off at yesterday, 84 have receded t,
84i for the account ; at present they are 844 a, with litth
or nothing doing.
In the Foreign Market nothing doing as yet.
HALF-PAST ONE.

We have been favoured with the following private letter,
which is both important and interesting, and from a quar-
ter upon which we cm place implicit reliance:—
" BAD Eato, SEPT. have the honour to comma
nicate to you the following intelligence, which I have beet.
able to learn since I left London. The Dutch army i•
far inferior to what it is reported to be in the Englisl
newspapers, and does not amount to more than siats
thousand men, of whom a great many are hardly fi,
for war, as I have seen myself, at the fortress of Nymegut•.
where the soldiers have any thing but a military appear-
ance. The whole Prussian army, both in Westphalia an•'
i❑ the Rhenish provinces, is not a man more at present
than it has always been these last 15 years.
" Some Prussian staff officers with whom I am ac-
quainted, and from whom I received the most minute in-
formation about the Prussian forces in Westphalia and tilt
Rhenish provinces, stated them to be as follows :
Fight Regiments of Infantry 14,000 men.
Eight ditto of Cavalry • , tioo
Artillery (Horse and Foot) 6uo
Sharp Shooters 330

Total 15,500 men.
which may be considered as official."
With such an army at the French and Belgian frontiers,
which is no more than the regular peace establishment,
people laugh here at the idea of war. As to the final
settlement of the Belgi in question it is reported that the
two points still in dispute, namely, the free navigation of th
Dutch rivers, and the evacuation of the citadel of Antwerp
are to be settled in the following manner :—Canals are to
be made from Antwerp through the 13eL;ian territor)
into the Rhine, whereby the trade of Antwerp has the
same facility as being carried on through the Dutch tern
tory, and the garrison of the citadel is to consist of troop,
of the Allied Powers. Till these canals ate finished, a
line of telegraphs is to be established forthwith from Ber-
lin to Coblentz, whereby intelligence can be transtnitte't
from Berlin to London in three days.
Consuls have continued during most part of the morn-
ing at 841 I for the account, with little doing.
We have a report that the Bank is going to discount at
a lower rate of interest.

The Dutch mill has arrived, and we refer our reader•
to the above important letter we have received by it.
In the foreign market the Stocks are much the same as
yesterday.

sion on the banks of the Menai. A neat arch was erected
over the toll gate at Llanfair, Anglesea, under the direc-
tions of the Rev. DAVID GRYYTYDII, curate of the pa-
rish, who was promptly seconded by the Rev. WILLIA-sts
WYNNE WILLIAMS, the respected Rector of Llageirwer;
and Llangaffo, Mrs. WYNNE WILLIAMS, and the other
neighbours in general, rich and poor. Though rustic,
and unadorned by crowns and coronets, it hid an im•
posing effect, studded as it was by evergreens and flowers.
At four o'clock the. Royal cavalcade arrived in five car-
riages and with somo horses, and were welcomed by hun-
dreds of honest Cambriana assembled before, in intense
anxiety, with hearty and enthusiastic buzzes, which made
the weik;n reverberate to their loyal and unfeigned voci-
feration of devotedness and respect. Carnarvon Herald.
