Consols—Yesterday, closed

This morning opened
The anticipation of an advance in Consols has
thus far ended in disappointment, the proposed
measure for relief, being generally considered
doubtful in its result. If,as it is supposed, assist.
ance will be given even for sums of less than
81000, the transactions will be so numerous, as
to occasion a loss of time, that maxi defeat the
intention of the measure, and operate to delay
the arrangement generally, to the great incon-
venience and injury of the applicants.
Consols begun this morning at 761, and ad.
vanced to 76i. A report of unfavourable intelli-
gence from Russia, flattened the market, which,
by 12, had dropped to 76; ; and at 1 o'clock,
the quotation was 76&.
A rumour of unfavourable news prevailed late
in the day yesterday, on the strength of which
the Supreme Director of a western establish-
ment called Fishmongers' Hull, sold iOO,OOO
Consols. Various rumours are in circulation
on the subject of Russian affairs--the assas.
ablation of the Emperor NICHOLAS, and assump-
tion of the Throne by CONSTANTINE—the recal
of the Russian Ambassador from London—the
determination of Russia to advance against the
Turks. Although these rumours can be traced
to no authentic source, and are generally discre-
dited, they produce a decided effect on the
Consol Market.
It has been reported this morning, that the at-
most extent required by the Minister will be 10
millions, and that for this amount he may resort
to the Sinking Fund, in preference to raising the
amount by loan. This would be in favour o
Consols.

DISTURBA NCES AT MACCLESFIELD.—We regret
to find by the following letter that some disturb..
ances have taken place at Macclesfield among the
unemployed workmen :
,t Macclesfield, Tuesday Half-past Ekven.

" This town was in a very riotous-state laiLt nigbt—evcry
body was much alarmed—mobs composed of some hundred par.
sons were parading the town, anti broke a number of windows,
anti in some cases completely destroyed the frames. They
broke into several bakers' and cook-shops, taking away what.
ever they could lay their hands on. It seems they were most
indiscriminate in their fury, as many of the houses attacked were
those inhabited by persons unconnected with the silk trade, and
who had subscribed large sums for their relief. This is market-, day, but such is the alarm, no conamodities were exposed for sale.
The town is like a fair—but lam happy. to say, among the ma-
jority a feeling of disapprobation exists against such pro.
ceedings. The tith (Enniskillen) Dragoons are here. The
shops *ere closed at an early hour last night. Some persons
who had agreed to give sums weekly, have expressed their de-
termination to stop. Thus they will injure themselves mate.
rially if they persist in their unlawful conduct. The principal
cenes of riot were 111111.atreet and Market'-street. •

Letters from Cadiz intimate that great fear is
entertained for the safety of Cuba. The Guer-
rero man-of-war and a corvette bad sailed for
that island.
Letters from Bucharest say, that the prophecies of Argo.
thangelos, published three centuries past, and which were re-
printed by order of the Russian Government in 1812, announce
the taking of Constantinople in 1827. The deaths of aIL the
E
Russian mperors up to Alexander is also prophecied in the
clearest way, as also the French expedition to Illoscow."
Two mercantile failures were announced this
morning—one a Hebrew House, concerned print.
cipally in the West India Trade.

A • Board of the Lords of the Treasury was held

on Tuesday at the Treasury Chambers.
Dispatches were sent off on Tuesday evening

reported the election to have fallen on Sir Ro.
