THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

---,
CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
Contrary to the general expectation, the Foreign Account
has passed off far better than was expected ; only two failures
of not much consequence took place late in the afternoon, and
confidence appears now to be restored, with real business
doing.
Spanish, which left off yesterday at 43 to 44, is not so good
this morning, and may be quoted at 424 34 ; Scrip, 12 disc. ;
Portuguese, 88i ; 3 per Cents., 63i.
Consols opened at the same price as they left off; 914 92
for the Account ; little doing in Exchequer Bills, India Bonds,
or Bank Stock.
HALF-PAST ONE.

The foreign market has again resumed its former activity,
and instead of their being all sellers of the foreign securities,
they have turned buyers. A good deal has been doing in the
course of the morning in Spanish and Portuguese Bonds, at
improved prices. Spanish may be quoted at 44 ; Portuguese
at 89, Spanish Scrip 12 discount.
Consols also maintain their price, and are 92 for the Ac-
count, but the chief speculation still prevails in the Foreign
Market. Exchequer Bills 27 28 ; India Bonds 710 ; India
Stock 2591 60 ; Bank Stock 2151.
A report prevails that the Espotr has arrived from Lisbon.
HALF-PAST TWO.

Within these ten minutes no less than seven or eight de-
faulters have been declared on the Stock Exchange, some to a
considerable amount.

At the Annual Yearling Prize Show at Reigate,
we were this year gratified with the sight of one of the most
splendid colts imaginable, that obtained one of the prizes, got by
young Seagrave, belonging to a Mr. Schillid, of Beckenham.
LYMINGTON.—We perceive by Lord John Rus-
sell's Bill for Reforming the Corporations of England and
Wales, that this borough is not included in the general ar-
rangements, and that the new system will not be put into prac-
tice here except by petition of the inhabitants for grant for
that purpose.
We understand that a General Agricultural Asso-
ciation is forming, and that the central point is to be in Lon-
don; the Marquis of Chandos to be President ; and William
Cayley, Esq., M. P., Vice- President.— Windsor Express.
The workmen have commenced laying the founda-
tion of a chapel for the use of the army, at the east end of the
Wellington Barracks, in St. James's Park. Ground is also
being laid out on in the Park in front of St. James's-street,
for stables for the Queen. When these are completed, Carl-
ton stables are to be taken down, and the terrace finished. A
first-rate hotel is to be built adjoining Spring-gardens.
While the Council of the London University were
sitting in conclave on the 6th instant, it was announced to them
that a donation of 1,000/. had just been made to the institu-
tion, through the medium of Lord Brougham, by the same
noble-minded individual who last year presented a like sum to
the University, under the name of " A Patriot."—Lancet.
So great is expected to be the overflow of visiters to
Cambridge at the ensuing commencement and installation.
that it has been proposed to pitch a number of tents of Parker's
Piece, and in the rear of the Colleges, where persons may
bivouac.
Madame Vestris, after performing at Birmingham,
has gone to France for a short trip ; she is to return next week,
and has been engaged by Mr. Davidge, of the Surrey
Theatre, at no less a salary than 50/. a night ; at least this
is the understood engagement, and we believe it to be the real
one. She had 401. a night at Birmingham, and at all events,
she had no maser? to be discontented with the audiences.

It is generally understood that the York Committee
have secured the services of Mademoiselle Grisi. At first she
was injudiciously advised to ask very exorbitant terms, which
the Committee could not, in justice to the charities which ex-
pect to' be benefited from the festival, listen to. She then
dropped a few notes; still they seemed too high; at length it
was suggested that the Committee should propose terms ; this
was done, and the bargain was brought to a finale, to the tune
it is said of 400 guineas.
Lord \Vynford, whose frame has suffered greatly
by repeated attacks of the gout, according to letters received
yesterday from Chislehurst, is seriously indisposed.
