THE FUNDS-(THIS DAY).

CITY, TWEE r z o' Grocr.
The British Funds have not been conspicuous this
morning for any bargains of importance, but the post-
ponement of the formation of the Committee on
Finance seems to have given the Bull party fresh
spirits. Consols opened at 851, declined to 85-i
but have since improved, and are now 85i buyers,
for the put of more to-day. The price of India
Bonds and Exchequer Bills remain without altera-
tion, the former being 92 4,, the latter 60 1 prem.
The 'Foreign Funds have- been this morning
looked to -with some 'interest, occasioned by the
arrival of his Majesty's ship Pylades from Vera
Cruz and the Flavannah; she brings nearly 900,000
dollars, and 266 serons of cochineal, for merchants'
account, and has not, we are sorry to. add, ,disap-
pointed the fears of the Mexican Bondholders, for
she does not bring a &Afar for the dividends on Go-
vernment account; the Pylades landed part of her
cargo at the Havannah, beiiig for the account of the
expatriated Spaniards., Thus varfishes for the pre-
sent all the hopes which were entertained, in con-
sequence of orders for insurance, and the publicity
which was given, that half a million of dollars was
actually ready to be shipped the moment a British
vessel arrived to take it in. It is now considered
that M. Rocafuerta, who is represented as a highly
respectable man, will, on the score of his own charac-
ter, as well as for the satisfaction of the Bondholders,
deign to give some explanation of the cause which
has led to this miserable disappointment, after so
many fair prospects and promises. Mexican Bonds,
6 per Cents. opened at 36+ ?f, but shortly dropped,
from the continued sales of the public, who seena to
be getting rid of the Foreign Securities generally, to
354, and are now 354 ; Mexican S per Cents. are
a little inquired after, being the cheaper stock.
Anxiety is alive for the arrival of the Osborne
packet from Buenos Ayres, which, it is confidently
stated, will bring the accounts of peace between that
Government and Brazil. The Banda Oriental being
declared an Independent State, under British aus-
pices, and Monte Video a Free Port, will be a Wi-
liam arrangement for British commerce. The Bonds
are 36 8. Spanish and Greek have some inquiry,
and the Market is good; in Shares there is nothing
doing.
