THE FUNDS.

o-„

CITY, Twelve- ei Clock.
The British. Funds on Saturday, late in the afternoon, 'became
more lively, and Cnnsols cussed at 'B2l' for the accOunt; this
morning the'lnarket opened with animation, 'and they are now
132 i 83, with ‘,.4rtrt appearance. The Foreign Funds partook
of the iMprovernent, and Greek' StOck; at the close of business on
Saturday had at advance of 3 per cent., leaving off at 16i buyers;
this morning a further improvement, has taken place, and they
are 18 buyers: This arises frOni, a report, of the European Go-
vernments, with the exception Of Austria having come to an
agreement to put an end to the destructive war between the
Turks and Greeks. Mexican Bonds look well, and haVe been
done at 67i B—being an advance of I per cent. Colom-
bian remain ' without any improvement, the intelligence
brought through the medium of the New York packet, not bearing
a cheering aspect, or any prospect of the divdends on that stock
being paid. The only person capable otiputting an end. to the in-
testine troubles of Colonibia, had not arrived at Bogota as reported,
nor is there any information upon which a correct opinion can be
formed, when: this may be expected ; indeed, some go so far as to
express their doubts whether Bolivar really moans to retnrii to his
native Country at all. Shares are quite out of fashion, and scarcely
an inquiry is now heard for them. • '

radish rooter there be no 'small store growing about

ten about' this time, " such `heroes, frititea, and rootes,
also as grove yeerlie out of the ground of seed, had be-
come verie plentiful' in this land in the time of the First
Edward and after his dales; but in processe of time they
grew also to be neglected, so that from flenrie the Fourth
till the hitter end of Henrie the Seventh, and beginnings
of Hetirie the Eighth, there was little or no use of them
in England, but they remained either unknowne, or sup-
poied as 'food more mete for hogs and savage beasts to
feed upon them than mankind; whereas in my time. their
use is not only resumed emonge the poore commons—l
, mean Melons, petitions, gourds; citeutriberi, radishes, &c.
skerets, parsnips, carrots, cabbages, newewes, turnips, and
all kinder of herbes ; but also fed upon as daintie dishes

SALADS.

Oil for salads is Mentioned in the Parton Letters in
1466,, iV %Oath year Sir John Paston writes to his zno-
ther,; that he has sent her "ij potty of oyl for taladm
whyche oyl was good as myght be when. he delyerl yt,
And schukkbe good at the reseyving yf Was
handled nor myscarryd." This indicates that vegetables.
for the table were still - cultivated in Englithd, 'although
the common opinion is, that most of our fruits and garden
.prodtictions,were destroyed during the civil wars between
the houses of,York and Lancaster. A good salad, how-
ever, bad become .su scarce some years diehards, that
Katherine the Queea of Henry VIM is said, on a parti-
cular occasion, t 0 have sent to the Coatiutint to procure
one. Salad hall were common simile years afterwards.

ROBBERY AT -THE' DUKE OF WORK'S.
Last night, or early this morning, some thieves
broke into the Villaof 'Mi.:Greenwood, at Old Bramp-
ton, whiCh:iS at present the residenee of His Royal
Highness the Duke of York;
Since .his Royal Highness has been there, he has
slept in the dining-rooin, into which the thieves
entered, and took all the seals and other yo,lu-
ables they -Could find. Mr. Greenwood's plate
chest was carried out to: the lawn, and all the silver
articles taken away, and the plated ones left. It is
supposed the' robbery was committed by some persons
who well knew .the house.
His Royal:Highness appears to have been extremely
unfortunate..a.his residence at Brompton. During
the violent thunder storm on Thursday night, the rain
forced 'an entrance into his Sleeping apartment, and ob-
liged, the:Royal Duke to.abandon his bed.

TEA AND SUGAR.

Tea and sugar, which are now to be met with in most
cottages in the South of England, were great rarities until
comparatively Oflase,years: The latter is indeed noticed
by several authors, even as early as the 14thcentury (Au-
derrort 11, but continued to be very dear even in
dames's reign. It first came from Berhary and Cyprus,
Where the sugar-cane was introduced by the Moors, and
from thence to Spain and the Canaries. From hence, on
the discovery of America, it was transplanted to the Bra-
zils; and abwut the year 1908 established in Hispaniola.
Before it was cultivated in Africa or Europe, sugar was
brought from the Indies by way of Damascus or Aleppo,
and from thence to England by Venire, Genoa,. or Pisa.
Antionly honey was the chief ingredient used as a sweet-
ener of our dishes said liquors, particularly. in mead and.
metheglin. Sugar, however, notwithstanding its extra-
vagant price, was very generally substituted In the place
of honey, even as earlY as the reign of Richard It in
great quantities, as is to be seeft in several receipts of
ancient cookery, and particularly iu the kitchen accounts
of that monarch. Sick and sugar was a favourite be-
verage with our ancestors, and is alluded to in several
old plays. •
England in tree reign of James 1., and certainly was very
'little used. Botero, who wrote about MO, seems to al-
lude to tea in the following remark :—" The Chinese have
940 an herb, out of winch they press a delicate juice,
which Serves them instead of Wine ; it also preserves their
health, and frees theuilrOnt all thOse evils that the itettio-
dertite use of wine doth bring unto us." In a treatise on
the„Easi indiattrade, published ItiAt,`MoSt of the cam-
modifies then imported ere enumerated, but tea is' not one
oftheM. It was, perhaps, i»troduced on the establish-
ment of the new India Company in 1637, who then obtain-
ed permission to trade to China and Japan, to which the
fornier India CoMpany had not before adventured. No
notice of tea, however, is taken in the. Book of }Wes au"
nexed to the, Act.passed in 166Q1, for granting the. King
certain duties on' different • articles of importation; but in
a subsequent' Act, tea, coffee; and chocolate, are subjected
to an excise. It' is singular, in the Act alluded to, that
the duty is imposed on thelioor composed. from:the ar-
tick's specified, and.not on the simple articles themselves.
The act 'says, " for every gallon of coffee inside and sold,
to be paid by the maker, 4d.; for every gallon
.fif choco-
late, sherbet, and tea, made and sold, to be paid by the
maker thereof, Bd,. ;" 'from which it may be inferred that
none of thole articles were then made by private families,
but were purchased ready mixed from the compounder.
The difficulty of collecting the ,duties in this form, their
general unproductiveness,- and the expellee* they caused,
occasioned the act to he repealed in the reign of William
and diary.

Late yesterday in the afternoon various reports were in circula-
tion, thatucounts had been-received, by way of France, that Spain
Was going to declare war against Portugal, and that England was
going to take the part of Portugal, for which purpose four or five
sail of the line were preparing to join our fleet in the Tagus. The
above nonsensical reports had the' desired effect, iii assisting the
Bears; - who were experiencing heavy !oases ; they succeeded in

It is also said that, during the late severe depression of Brazilian

1 II ELAND.--POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

MR. SAVAGE, THE MAGISTRATE.
ENR Y-STRtarr.2 This gentleman Will on Friday
brought up, to answer the complaint of Mr, Edward Moy-
lan, paper-manufacturer, of Strand-street, for an unpro-
voked assault.

Mr
Moylan said, that on the 28th of June last, he was
sitting in the shop of Mr. Clarke, printer and stationer,
of Great Britain-street, when' Mr. Savage came in. Mr.
Savage seated himself for a short time at the opposite side
of the counter, and suddenly rising, without the slightest
:provocation, or a word having. passed between them, he
stood up, seized him (Mr. M.) lifted him out of the chair,
and, taking him forcibly by the arm, pushed him into the
street, at the same time calling him a spy, and using other
insulting language. -
Mr. Silk, a friend of'Mr. Moylan, advises him, who was
'a married man, and Mr. Savage being a magistrate, to
prefer his complaint before the proper tribunal.
Mr. Savage said, lie was no magistrate there; he Was
a magistrate of the county ; but this transaction occur
red in the city. Why had it, not been brought forward
sooner ?

Mr. Moyhtit explained this, by saying hN was arrested
the next day for debt, and was obliged to take the benefit
of the Insolvent Aet.

The Magistrate said that was no discredit to him ; many
a respectable man had been compelled to do the same.
Silk—lf Mr. Savage will make a proper public
apology to Mr. Moylan, it is all that is required.
Mr. Savage---Tot, tut—what-1 apologize to a paper.

CORONER'S INQUEST.

Last evening an inquisition was taken before THOI{AS Hrnos,
Esq. at the Turf Tap, in Mr. Tattersall's Yard, Upper Grosvenor.
place, on Henry Shepherd, a fine boy, aged three years, who died
from scalding.

John Gillham,. of Queen's-yard, Jews'-row, Chelsea, lodged
with the deceased's parent, ; on Saturday week last he was at
breakfast in their room. The infant,. in attempting to get on a
chair, placed his hand on the table, whicb overturned the cup
and saucer, and the hot tea went into his bosom. The child
screamed, when the mother and sister, then in. the room, speedily
applied sonic seraped potatoes and oil to the scalded parts ; but the
little sufferer complained greatly of pain in his belly. The injured
parts were red, but no blister appeared for au hour after.
Mfr. Henry Russell, the house-surgeon to St. George's Hospital,
examined the deceased when brought there, on .Saturday week ;
the injury seemed slight, and at that time there was no danger.
He prescribed for the child, and requested the mother to bring him
next!clay if he did pot get better; she, however did not come till
Saturday last, the scalded part was then, in .a state of mortifica-
tion. The deceased's grandmother said several things had been
applied at the recommendation of friend*.. He saw the child on
Sunday and Monday last, and seeing. he was in a dangerous
state lie did not permit the infant to be taken away, as he re-
quired every attention. - The deceased, however, lingered till.
Tuesday, when lie expired from the scalding on the chest. Wit-
ness had no *doubt, if he bad been brought to the Hospital as
ono) as requested, their treatment would have prevented the fatal
consequences that ensued.
The Jury deeply, regretted the poor little sufferer's death, cud
returned a verdict of—Accidentally Scalded.

POTATOES.

The Board of 4(4l:leohunt' Report tells us (of this most

with a;good parcel of potatoes. It was cultivated in the-

The Marquis of LANSDOW N repeated his opinion, that
before any one measure was gone into by the House, the whole
of what was intended to be dons should be brought under their
LoThrdshipe consideration.
e Earl of lel VER POOL had no difficulty in saying that
he should be ready to agree to any arrangement which might
assist the discussion, and afford the opportunity for the fullest
consideration. With regard to the amount of Bank issues
some inftwmation aught be obtained by Returns from the
Stamp-office.
The Earl of LAUDERDALE was glad that information
could be obtained from the Stamp.office. However, for his
part, as he was informed, the Bank had no reason to be asham-
ed of its transactions in the late occurrences. IVere •he
a Bank Director, he should therefore loose no time in advising
his colleagues to give every infontiation which might be
required.
rrhe motion of Lord LAUDERDALE, altered according

-TO THE EDITOR Or THE SUN,

SIR,—A great deal has been said lately in the public papers
respecting the repeal of the Law of Arrest for debt, and, if I mitt.
take not, the (übject has been mentioned in the House of Commons.
Now, Mr. Editor, whether such repeal would 'be a wise or politic
measure, I must leave to wiser heads; but on looking over an old
scrap hook,the other day, the following memolzuulum, which I
copied therein some years ago, though I unluckily omitted to at-
tach the author's name to it, struck me as Leaving very strongly
on this question, viz.
" As all the Members of a conummity are interested in the
life, liberty and labours of each .other ;_lie who puts -the rigour a
our laws in execution,• by detaining an insolvent brother in jail, is
guilty of a hiur-fold injury.' In the Brat; place, he robs the com-
munity of the labours of their brother ;• secondly, he robs lily
brother of all means of retrieving his *bettered fortune ; thirdly,
he deprives himself of the possibility of payment ; and -lastly, he
lays an unnecessary burden on-the public, who, in charity, most
maiutain the member whom he, in his cruelty, eontinee."
In rase the above should be interesting to your. readers; you
will probably give it a place in your valnithle columus,'aud 1 am,
sir, your olvdient Servant, G.
June b; 1646.

The CostmoN SERCIANT moved fora rule calling ou the de-

REPIN of Sir F. ROBINSON to the Messages of the
Assembly of Tobago.

31r. Sitelker, and Gentlemen of the Aiseritbly,

A considerable time has now elapsNl since I considered it
necessary to ascertain, as far as possible, in what manner 1
could have acted in my public capacity to occasion continual
attacks from the House of Assembly. I will now explain how
far I suceeetTed in my attempt.
In February last 1 requested Dr. Panting to inquire of Mr.
Irvine, whether I had ever offended him individually, for that
if I had, I would lose no time in repairing my fault, or that if
I had given offence to the majority of the House of Assembly.
I would most readily adopt measures for satisfying their minds,
as nothing would be more, gratifying to my feelings, than to
possess the affection and confidence of the House. On the 13th
February last, I received from Dr. Panting the following pro-
pounds from Mr. Irvine :

The liesitatiOn of the Mexican .:Goternmot
has paralyzed the operations in South American
Securities generally, though Mexican and Colom-
bian, are most affected.

The tardiness in advertising the payment of
certain dividends adds to the pressure on the
Foreign Market, and it may yet happen, that the
eyes of the public will,at last, be opened to the very
p.ricarious nature of South American obligaticons.
The real truth is, that South American Bonds
are no longer convertible, without sacrificing at
a price materially below the quotations,— which
are absolutely nominal.
