THE FUNDS-(THIS DAY).

CITY, Twxr.vs o'CLorr.
Consols opened at 871 I, were sellers at 1 ; the
Chancery Broker at this price purchased 80,000/,
for Frislity ; this was stated to be on accsunt of the
Estate of his late Royal Highness the Duke of York,
and it is understood that a similar sum is yet to
be bought for the same parties. The Executors sell
Exchequer Bills, which they hold as a temporary
investment, to pay for the Stock. The demand for
Consols increases the difficulty of the Bears, and pro-
duces an idea that the Funds may go still higher;
although the market has been well supplied to-day
with Money Stock, the Commissioners gave 871;
the present price is 871 1. India Bonds, 112 14 ;
Exchequer Bills, 71 2.
In the Foreign Funds very little business is doing,
Portuguese, 54; Mexican, 6 per Cent, have been
done at 39, arising from the state of the account ;
the trifling stir in Spanish Bonds yesterday appears
to have ceased, they are WI 11.

In Shares nothing has occurred worthy of notice.
It is stated by the Lisbon letters of the 2d inst.
that the blockade of the Island of Madeira was
officially notified on 'Change the 28th ult., by the
competent authorities, in the name of King Miguel.
Some curiosity is expressed in the City how far
the British Government will acknowledge this pro-
ceeding which will militate more particularly against
English interests. The Jamaica packet arrived at
the island on the 26th June, and it is expected would
sail from thence about the 15th July, consequently
she may be expected in the course of a feW days.

CITY MARKETS, TWO O'CLOCK.

PLANTATION SUCAII.4.—The demand this morning has
been steady, and a fair business done at fair prices ; the de-
liveries from the West India Docks were last week very ex-
tensive, 1,900 hhds. more than were delivered in the same
week last year. The public sale of Barbadoed went off
very briskly at full prices, one lot fetching as high as
'72s. 6d. _

FonEwN SUGARS—There has not been any business
done this morning, hut a parcel of Porto Rico is adver-
tized for sale to-morrow.
REFINED SUGARS—The market continues in a flat state,
and purchases are being made at rather lower prices.
COFFEE—The parcels of Jamaica offered by public sale
this morning went off steadily without alteration in prices.
FRUIT—No alteration.
