THE FUNDS.

The stillness which has pervaded the Consol Market for a con-
siderable time past was broken in upon on Saturday, and a great
deal of business was done at advanced prices ; Consols leaving off
per cent better, and with every appearance of improvement. It
is evident that there are a number of individuals who are looking
to a further rise in Stocks, from the great plentifulness of money,
and also from the improvement in the state of the manufacturing
districts. The continuation, which is now five-sixteenths, is
confirmatory of the public opinion in favour of the Funds. The
Foreign Market has also partaken of the rise ; Mexican left off at
50i, being an improvement upon last week's prices of 5 per Cent.
A great part of this rite may, however, be attributed to the fact
of a number of speculators having sold the Stock who do not
possess it, and who are now under the necessity of buying it. back
again at A great loss previously to the settlement day.

MANCHESTER, SATURDAY, AUG. 26.

.
From our inquiry for the last two or three days, as
to the state of the Markets, and to the quantity of
business doing, we find that considerable salsa have
been effected, chiefly in yarns and goods for exporta-
tion. Prices have been fully maintained, and upon
the whole, we consider the demand something better,
we cannot, however, quote any improvement in prices;
indeed,
every attempt to raise prices seems completely
to Paralyze sales. The number of buyers for the
e°4ntry trade has not been so numerous as heretofore,
nor
have their purciiases been so extensive.
