THE FUNDS.

The fluctuations in Consols, during the last week, were
not very great, and on the settlement of the account day,
last Tuesday, when the Bull party threatened to take a
large quantity of Stock, and frighten the other party into
submission, there was not a variation of per cent.
The remarkable features in the Money Market are first
the rise, and great scarcity of Exchequer Bills. A rise
also in the, premium of India Bonds, which are 21s. prem.
The heavy Stocks have also experienced an improve-
ment, anti throughout there is a general scarcity of Stock,
the public investments having far exceeded the supply on
the Market.

Notwithstanding, hOWever, these favourable omens, the
3 per Cents. remain perfectly inactive, the public not
seeming to take the least interest in them. With the ex•
ception of a poWerful Hebrew party, who are speculating
for a rise, and who support the Market when it wants
support, there is no busineis doing. It will be seen from
our published lists, that the Mexican Stock has risen
during the week nearly 10 per cent., and that Colombian
Stock has also improved. This alteration is the effect of
very large purchases made in the former Stock, by parties
who are supposed to be well informed on South American
affairs, and whose operations haVe before largely influenced
the price of the Stock. The Colombian Stock has not
risen in the same proportion, but we are inclined to think,
from what passed between the Colombian Minister and
some of the principal holders, that some steps will shortly
be taken by his Government to place funds at their dispo-
sition, or at all events (which is the consolation next to be
desired) to satisfy the Bond-holders that the Government
will leave no stone unturned to accomplish the fulfilling of
their engagements.
