THE FUNI)S.

The Estafette from Paris has arrived, bringing the French
Rents iY per cent lower-69f. sr. This was owing to a number
of reports in circulation in the French capital, of a warlike na.
Lure, particularly in regard to Italy. Also, of a misunderstand-
ing between the various ambassadors, on the French expedition
to Ancona. It is rather sing•dar that our ambassador is going to
leave Paris, it is said for a few days, at this critical juncture of
political events ; but we may suppose he is coming to be present
at the discussion of the Reform Bill in the House of Lords, and
to vote for Ministers. By to-morrow we may expect the defence
of M. Casimir Perier,l on the Duke of Wellington's speech,
which is anxiously looked for.
Our Funds this morning continue steady, at the prices they
left off on Saturday, 83% for the Account, and 83!,i to i. for
Money, with tittle or nothing doing as yet.
The Foreign Market is in the same state as that of the British,
without animation.
The private letters for Lisbon, by the mail, state that Don
Miguel has sent 2,000 troops to Madeira. His good subjects, are
angry with him for crossing the Tagos and leaving them with.
out his presence for tour days ; they have suspicion that he is
going to make off.
The private letters by the Dutch mail bring the Dutch Stock
higher 427 i, 43.
No political news has transpired in that quarter.

HALF-PAST ONE.

The information we have derived to-day in regard to the
affairs of Holland, is rather at variance. One account states,
that a pause has taken place in the negociations with Count
Orloff, on the arrival of the news of the taking of Ancona by the
French, and which the King of Holland has rather turned to a
good account, by persuading Count Orloff to send to St.
Petersburgh for instructions on the business. On the
other hand we are assured, from a high quarter, that
every thing is settled, with the exception of a difference
in the debt between Holland and Belgium of about three hun-
dred thousand pounds sterling, which it is expected will soon be
adjusted, as Count Orloff'is determined not to leave until every
thing is finally settled.
‘A'c understand that the Officers attached to the thousand men
ser.t by Don Miguel to Madeira, are much dissati•fied with their
destination, and some of them have deserted. If some of I)on
Pedro's ships should be cruising off that island, no doubt they
will fail an easy prey to Don Pedro.
The Funds have been very languid during the whole of the
morning, with little or no business doing. Consols may be quoted
without any fluctuation of the least consequence; they are at
the same price they opened, 83%!4 for Account, and 83!1; to 14
for Money. In the Foreign Market also nothing doing, except
in Dutch Stock, which maintains its price.
We have no political news.
At one period Consols were done at 83i.

WINCHESTER, MARCH 17.—A Complaint
has been made to the :master of Winchester College, of the
wanton depredation and misconduct of some of the young gen_
tlemen, on a farm three miles to the south of Winchester, far
beyond the limits allowed for their recreation. Some fighting
took place, in which Mr. Percival, a relation of the fasting
gentleman, displayed his pugilistic science : but the _flails of
the threshers from the barns, who sallied forth for the protec-
tion of their master's property, and of their fellow-servant,
who was
alone opposed to a host, proved harder than the
heads of the invaders, some of whom ultimately left the field,
much the worse for the encounter.—Southampton Herald.
Judge Hale declared, after twenty years of
observation and experience, that "if all the murders, man-
slaughters, burglaries, robberies, riots, tumults, and other great
enormities, which had been committed in that time were di-
vided into five parts, four of them would be found to have been
the result of intemperance,"
