pected from this source a, sum equal to their
wants, for these purposes, would be procured ;
the present inhabitants of this establishment by
the plan were to. be pensioned off. Should this
take place it will do more for the country than
any other measure for the last 50 years. His

THE FUNDS-(THIS DAY).

CITY, TWELVE 0' CLOCK,

The commencement of the week has not been signalised
by any addition to the business in the English Funds, and
every thing remains in the same uninteresting state which
characterised the operations of the Stock market last week.
Consols have been nominally 88, sellers, for account, and
87i 8 for money ; but such has been the low ebb to which
the transactions have been reduced that we have not heard
of a single bargain up to the above hour. India Bonds,
are 96 8 ; Exchequer Bills, 75 6 pin.
The Foreign Funds remain in a languid and dull state;
the arrival of the Brazil packet, the letters of which are de-
livered, furnishes no new feature, being only a few days
later than our former advice. ; the Exchange at Rio re-
mained at 301 31 per milrea. The Commissioners per
the Redpole packet had not arrived on the 28th of July
from the River Plate. The Proclamation issued by Don
Pedro to the Portuguese of the 25th July is considered in
the City of a conciliatory description, and as giving a proof
of a pacific disposition ; the Bonds remain at 64 The
Lord Melville packet arrived at Rio en the 25th July ; the
announcement of a new loan negociated for the use of the
Russian Government in Rolland. has had no effect on the
Bonds, which are 94 ; the amount is for 18 millions of
florins, rather more than millions sterling, and has been
taken at the high rate of 98f by the house of Hope in
Amsterdam, and is likely to remain in that country alto-
gether ; Portuguese are 551 56. By the Jane, Capt.
Weddell, arrived at St. Ives, Cornwall, in twelve days from
Madeira, nothing new is elicited, this vessel brings Jose
Lucius Travassos Valdez, late Governor of that Nand,
and family, with 51 passenger., consisting of the Officers
of the Garrison and merchants ; the only news is that im-
prisonment is the order of the day.

In Shares a trifling improvement has taken place in Im-
perial Brazilian Mines to 47 9 pm. ; Colombian are '7
dis., a call having been mask on them.
Three per Cent. Consols, 87i 8 ; Ditto, for Account,
$S ; India Bonds, 96 8 pm. ; Exchequer Bills, 75 7 pm.
FORElGN.—Brazilian, 64 ; Buenos Ayres, 45 '7;
Chilian, 29 30; Colombian, 224 31; Danish, 634 4;
Greek, 19 ; Mexican, Five per Cent., 29i 30i ; Ditto,
Six per Cent., 39i 4 ; Peruvian, 21 2 ; Portuguese,
55i 6 : Russian, 94 ; Spanish, 11i 4.

pm. ; Ditto National, 2i pm. ; Bolanos, 149 150 pm. ;
Colombian, 7 6 dis. ; United Mexican, 191 lei dis.

TWO O'CLOCK.

The only variation in Consols was, their being al-
ternately buyers and sellers at 88 for account; at
present they are the former, with scarce a transac-
action. The new Russian Loan is to be redeemed
in 36 years, and seems to have made no impression
on the price of Russian Bonds, either here or in
Holland.

The French and Russian Ambassadors had a
conference with the Duke of WELLINGTON and the Earl of
ABERDEEN on Saturday, at the Office of the Secretary of
State for Foreign Affairs. The interview of their Excel-
lencies with the two Ministers lasted upwards of an hour.

Despatches were sent off by a King's Mes-
senger on Saturday night from the Earl of ABERDEEN to
the Right Hon. STRATFORD CANNING. •
The Swedish Minister visited the Duke of
WELLINGTON yesterday at his residence in Downing-street.
His Grace afterwards left town for his seat at Strathfield-
saye.

The LORD CHANCELLOR entertained the
Duke of WELLINGTON, Sir GEORG R MURRAY, and a select

A stack of wheat, belonging to Mr. C.
Mossor, of Nigh Monkwray, near Whitehaven, which
had stook in his stack-yard near two years, was taken
down a few days ago, and was found to contain 715 full
grown rats! the whole of which, with the exception of
seven which were fortunate enough to escape the bloody
fray, were destroyed by dogs. The stack was completely
hollowed out, and nearly the whole of the grain destroyed,
by the vermin; what remained was unfit for use.—Cur-
lisle Journal.

On Saturday last some Porthlevan fishermen,
after much difficulty, secured a very large fish, supposed to
be the sun fish. When first seen the voracious creature
pursued the boats, and little impression could be made upon
him with boat hooks, &c. until a ball was fired into his
open mouth, when they succeeded in bringing him to hind.
The fish was ab nit 8 feet long, 5 in girth, and weighed
upwards of a ton. It was shown to spectators at 2d. per
bead ; hut the carcase not being likely to produce mucb
oil, it was on Monday sold to a farmer for manure.....
