THE FUNDS.

CITY, Twelve o' Clock.

The businesi in the English Funds has been rather of a limited
nature since the opening this morning ; the first price of Console
was '791 ; they soon after became a shade lower, and are now
79* I. In the foreign market, particularly Mexican Bonds, the
transactions have been extremely large ; in consequence of the
advertisement which appeared in the morning papers from the
Mexican Charge d'Affaires, that the agency of the Mexican Go-
vernment had been transferred to the highly respectable establish-
ment of Messrs. Baring, Brothers, and that the dividend due in Oct.,
and those which may become due in future would be paid by those
Gentlemen. This agreeable intelligence to the holders being known
prior to the opening of the house for business, created much con-
fidence, and the first price of 6 per Cent. Bonds was 60 ; a subse-
quent re-action took place, and they were done at 58t, and have
settled at 59} ; thus have all doubts upon the subject of the re-
gular payments of the dividends ended extremely satisfactory, and
the credit of the Mexican Government appears to be fixed upon a
solid foundation. The interest created by this intelligence has
absorbed all the attention of speculators, and business in the other
Securities has scarcely been attended to. In Shares the quota-
tion prices are more favourable to both the Anglo and United Mexi-
can Mines—the former at 50, and the latter 13 to 12 discount.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

MANSION-HOUSE.--(Tans DA Y. )

Thomas Jackson, a dirty slovenly-looking man, with a
black eye, was charged with creating a riot.
Mr. Blenkarn, a respectable wharfinger, stated, that
the prisoner was unhappily brother to his partner.—
He seemed born to maintain the ancient and honour-
able order. of idleness; he thought it beneath him
to attend any industrious or honourable avocation, and
was one of those subjects frequently attached to the best
families, on whom every service was thrown away. At
last he was .taken into the service of the firm as a mes-
senger. He got drunk, fought with the men, and
they were obliged to discharge him ; he then
came on the wharf ass an injured person, quarrelled
with the other servants on the wharf, fought with one [of
them, and beat him so severely that he was now in danger
of his life.

The LORD MAYOR remanded the prisoner until the man
assaulted was out of danger.

BOW-STREET---(Tula DA Y ).
Eduard Jarvis Tollast was brought up for re-examina-
tion. He was charged a few days ago with an assault on
a Miss Finlayson, the niece of a lady upwards of 60, whom
he had lately married, and who was possessed of consi-
derable property.. Mi'ss Finlayson' had discovered that the
prisoner had another wife living, and had informed her
aunt of the fact. A rupture ensued between him and her
aunt, and he endeavoured to remove some property be-
longing to the latter. Miss Finlayson interfered to pre-
vent him, and he struck her, and was brought to this
dice to answer the assault, and had been detained on a
charge of bigamy. . _ . _ _

It appearW(l,-however, on inquiry, that the prisoner had
been a lover and fortune hunter by profession, and no less
than five ladies had aspired to the honour of being loved
and cherished by this " gay deceiver" of at least 45. The
ladies were ranged in formidable array in the office, this
Morning; and, if flattery be his fork, he had exercised
great skill lathe selection of his dupes, who, it appeared,
Were possessed of more property than charms. On enter-
ing the dock, however, the man who had displayed such
generalship in conquering them singly, could not sustain
their attack en masse, and shrunk from their gaze
in sullenness, hiding his face (their unfortunate object of
attraction) behind his handkerchief.

Mr. Ma.chduff, who attended for Mrs. Whitehurst, the
elderly lady, before mentioned, produced a certificate, to
prove that in 1797, Edward Jervis had been married to
RaChael Pierce, at St. George's, Hanover-square.
Miss Finlayson proved having procured the certificate
from the register of that church, in which she had read the
entry.

John Stratton, of No. 6, Mitford-street, Tottenham-
court-road, proved that he had known the prisoner four or
five year by the name of .Tervis; he had lived in witness's
house, with a woman who passed as Mrs. Jervis; he had
seen her alive as lately as last Sunday week.
Mr. HUMPHRIES, for the prisoner, contended that it
would be requisite to prove that it was the same woman
mentioned in the certificate.

Mr. Mackduff replied that he had not had time enough
to procure sufficient evidence of that fact, and made appli-
cation to Mr. Hulls, for more time.

Mr. HALLS observed, ifit were only necessary to prove
two marriages, there .were several wives present to do so.
Mr. HumPaßlEs said, that if the first of those, alluded
to, could not be proved to have been consummated at the
time no former wife was living, it could not be considered
a marriage in law, or in fact, and such evidence could not
convict the prisoner of.bigamy.
Sir H. BIRNIR observed, that he hardly knew what de-
signation could be given to such an inordinate appetite for

wives.
Mr. HALLS ultimately remanded the prisoner for a week,
to give time for Mr. Mackduir to procure evidence of the
first marriage.
On the gate of the clock being opened, the prisoner made
his escape front the public gaze with an alacrity which ex-
cited the risibility of nearly all present.
