copy of the inscription on the monument, and that
the first words were; hand prool ar hoc lacy.

This witness was cross-examined at considerable
length, but nothing was extracted from him differ-
ing from what we have already stated. In the course
of his examination, he denied that he had ever ad-
vanced money to the claimant.
Mr. Roberts was again called in, and part of the
evidence of the last witness having been read
over to him, he stated that that part of it
relating to the alleged conversation between him and
Mr. Place as to the monument, was utterly false.
Mr. Roberts farther said, that after the conversa-
tion which he and Captain Mason had with Mr.
Place, the impression on their minds was, that
he had substantially retracted his statement to the
Attorney-General.
The LORD CHANCELLOR thought it impossible
that they could proceed With the examination of the
witnesses this Session. He therefore suggested that
the claims be postponed to next Session.
This arrangement, after some observations from
the Common Sergeant and Mr. Adam, was as-
sented to.

The LORD CHANCELLOR afterwards suggested,
that as Captain Mason, a witness of great im-
portance, was an officer in the navy, and might
next session be called abroad on foreign service, it
would be expedient to resume consideration of this
claim on Wednesday next; which was agreed to.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH.

This was an action on a bill of excha►►ge,-and has
occupied the Court during the whole morning. It
had not concluded when our paper went to press.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS.
There was nothing of any interest in thii, Court
this morning.

THE FUNDS-(THIS DAY).

CITY, TirELPE o'CLocx

The English Funds exhibit considerable elasti-
city, and wear every symptom of improvement,
notwithstanding the high rate at which the quota-
tions may be generally considered. Consols opened
this morning at 868 7 for money, and SBB :3- for ac-
count, since which the market has shown a consider-
able degree of buoyancy and reached buyers,
for the account; they may at present be quoted at
888 I, and sellers at 888 for next time. The trifling
advance in Exchequer Bills which took place yester-
day is fully maintained, and the premium remains at
70 1; India Bonds continue at 101 5 pm.
There is scarcely any thing doing in the Foreign
Funds, Portuguese Bonds have advanced from 534 :1-
to 513-; Brazilian, 61k; Russian Stock, 9-13-;
Danish 62. There is nothing new in Shares.
A report still exists in the City that the Bank are
going to discount at three per cent., but this is not
believed by those who are generally well informed
on these subjects.
Some feeling of anxiety began to be felt for the
arrival of the Belfast steamer, on board of which
vessel the Visconde Palmella and his patriotic asso-
ciates took their passage on their return from Oporto
to this country; this is the more to be wished for, as
this vessel on her outward passage had the misfor-
tune to burst her boiler no less than four times, and
it is stated that she is not of the first construction.

HALF-PAST TWO.
We this moment learn from good authority that Don
Miguel is going to proclaim an amnesty and grant a
free pardon to the Constitutionalists; be has also
premised to wed the daughter of Don Pedro, his
niece, in whose favour the Emperor abdicated the
Crown of Portugal. Thus ends this mighty revolu-
tion, and Don Miguel will remain king of Portugal.
