of Nolth-West Traders, .had arrived safely at
Fort Milli tm, in which w found Mr. SPENCER,
formerly Shelia. of the Red River Colony, and
three or four othcqiudividuals. We are told they
were immediately taken into custody and ordered
to Sindwich, where the Western District Court is
.10;h;reil.: It is'said.that Mr. SMITH, Under-Sheriff
for the said district, attended by others, clothed
with ffingis+erial authority, had eone iN quest of

Fotuns.—The advance in the price of the
runds continues. Those persons who were eager
to sell at 75, ate now as anxious to become pur-
thasers at 81. Although Satur&iy is not a dny
when much business is looked fOr 'in the Money
Market; yet theee has been to-clay a' great deal
doing both for Money and for the August Ac-
count ; the price has been for the former 814 A,
and for the 1 itter 8111; most of the principal
Ilrukers have been buying for the A count in
October, the price for which time is 82-.10. The
Opinion of many is that there will be a considerable
rise before that period.—Exchequer Bills are 355.
to 375. premium.

There has been a long article in the Morning
rlironicle this week, in which a deplorable ac-
count was given of the state of the Peasantry to
France. This account wits directly at variance,
With that given by Lady ATORGAN in her recent
Rork. Her account was doubtless as much too
favoarable as the other was too gloomy an exag-
Reration. Pebple in general wil! not understand
the object of the mehncholy pi :titre, the tendency
of fiveshich is to bring discredit on the present
Government of France. We do not accuse
the Morning Chronicle of such an intention, and
rather suppose that it has been deceived by some-
body who has that purpose in view. It however
;Asserts, that it has always 'preserved an even
course, and that it has been '' exposed to
