THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TWELVE 0' CL 0 CK.
We have received the Journal de la Hoye, of the 15th
February, by the Dutch steamer, in which we find the
following pacific paragraph :—" It is this moment reported
that General Count Orloff is arrived at the Hague. The
name of this honourable Aide-de-Camp is known to all
Europe ; his enlightened mind, and his connections with
all Europe are the guarantee of the mission which is con-
fided to him, and is of the greatest importance." We be-
lieve, as well as the Journal of St. Petersburylt, that the
questions which are attached to the affairs of Eelgium are
approaching to an end, and his mission, which has for its
object the principles of royalty, and the views of the Em-
peror of Russia to concliate difficulties, will certainly
meet with a good reception from the King of Holland and
his people, who have to this moment defended their in-
terests.

WARSAW, FEB. 5. —The Universal Gazette of this
day announces the departure of Prince Paskewitsch; his
absence will not be of long duration.
They write from Madrid that the news received by the
Spanish Government of Don Pedro having united a con-
siderable force at Belleisle has caused great alarm there.
Don Miguel has sent a second diplomatic agent to Madrid.
In the province of Salameo and Cuidad Rodrigo there are
already united from 10,000 to 12,000 men.

The estafette from Paris this morning brings the
French Rentes higher, 66f. 7.5 c. ; but no news of im-
portance. The French Government were acquainted
with the cholera having broken out in London, which has
not caused any great alarm in the French capital,
and it is said that a quarantine of three days will
only he put on ships coming from the port of London.
Indeed we suspect that there is more alarm to be appre-
hended in London of the typhus fever than the cholera
murbus, particularly in the crowded and distressed dis-
tricts; therefore we should caution all the parishes to give
immediate relief, particularly in necessaries of life, to these
unfortunate brings.

A great number of bills were posted up at Paris
during the night of the 14th Febru iry, representing the
figure of Henry IV., with a dog on one side, and a vase
from which issues a part of a fleur de lys.
We find that the Earl of Harrowhy and Lord Wharn-
eliffe had a long conference yesterday with Earl Grey at
the Treasury, which no doubt related to the passing of the
Reform Bill in the House of Lords.

Gins°le, which left off yesterday at 82i for the Ac-
count, opened at 82k, afterwards were done at 82i 4, at
whiclo price they are at present.
In the Foreign Market nothing doing as yet.

HALF-PAST ONE.

What we stated several days since in our City article,
that one of the Princes of Holland was to be King of
Greece, we believe is now confirmed. The Allied Powers,
as a recompense for the loss of Belgium to the King of
Holland, has placed Prince Frederick on the throne of
Greece, and we understand he is to take with him from
13,000 to 20,000 troops of various descriptions, so that
he will have nothing to fear from the treachery of the
Greeks.

We cannot, as yet, learn to a certainty what length of
time the quarantine has bee❑ ordered in France for ships
coming from England.
We have no further political news at present, hut we
understand that the only difficulty in settling the affairs of
Holland relates to the internal navigation of the rivers,
with some trifling differences in the debt, which, it is sup-
posed, will soon be removed.
Consols are at present 821, alternately buyers and sellers.
In the Foreign Market no business doing.

GLUTTONY.—At the Royal Oak inn, Burn-
ley, on Wednesday evening, a native of the sister island un-
dertook, for two quarts of ale, to eat twelve pounds of po-
tatoes, and two red herring•, in ten minutes; but broke
down when he had swallowed the herrings and nine
pounds of potatoes in not quite seven minutes !--Black-
burn Gazette.

It is certain that the plan for a rail-road from
.Antwerp to Cologne or Dusseldorf! is agreed upon. The
road will not pass through the Dutch territory, as the con-
sent of Prussia has hem obtained. It ie to he begun im-
mediately.
