THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TWRLYR CL()Cr.
The continuance of the heavy gales of wind from
the S.W. has prevented our receiving any commu-
aications from the Continent, and two French Mails
are now due, which is rather an unusual circum-
stance. Consols opened at 871 f, have been done
at 873-, but the former is the present quotation, with
very limited business. The advance on India Bonds
and Exchequer Bills is well maintained, the former
are 70 2 pm., and the latter are 68 70 pm.
There is no business in the Foreign Funds, nor any
variation in the respective prices of yesterday ;
Russian Bonds pre 9,51; Portuguese .53i 41; Danish,
62f 3; and Brazilian, 63f 4.
The only novelty in Shares has been in Colom-
bian Mines, which were 12 discount, and are now
8 9; this improvement is attributed to the favour-
able report received of the produce in gold dust of
the auriferous pyrites of Marmato, by stamping and
wawhing, a copy of which has been in circulation
among the shareholders.

Demerara Papers have arrived to the 28th of
October. They contain the particulars of the opening of
the House of Assembly at Tobago. The new Governor's
speech appears to have given great satisfaction; as he
states—" In following my instructions 1 am bound to
maintain yonr freedom of debate, as also to respect your
constitutional Fighta and privileges." The House of As-
sembly in reply said—a It ie with no small degree of
pleasure we heard your Excellency assert that it was an
article of his Majesty's instructions, that you were to pro•
mote our freedom of debate, and to respect our constitu-
tioaa; rights and privileges. That your Excellency will
regard them ea sacred, we have no doubt." The rights
and privileges of the House l;ave been, heretofore, the sub.
ject of much contention.
