THE FUNDS-(THIS DAY).

CITY, TWELVR o'CLocr,

Consols opened this morning at 841, at which price they
closed yesterday afternoon, since which there has:been no
other variation:than being buyers and sellers alternately ;
they are now 84 1, and the Market seems to lean in, some
degree to heaviness; a considerable sale of money stock,
160,0001., has been made by a breker connected with a
West end of the Town Banker at 84 ; repoPt states this
stock to be the property of a leading Member of the. Cabi.
net; more importance would haVe attached to this sale,
. but for the circumstance of it being understood to be made
for the payment of an estate purchased by his
.Lordship,
and consequently has nothing to do with any political
event ; the Commissioners were served in a lot by one
broker at 84. India Bonds continue at 94 6 ; Exchequer
Bills, 60 2 pm.
The Foreign Funds have scarcely bad a bargain doing
up to the present hour, except in Portuguese Bonds, in
which prices are well supported, although the accounts re
ccived by the Lisbon Mail arrived are by no means of a
flattering description, and notwithstanding. no prominent
measures, since our former advices, have been taken,-enough
is shewn to prove that every preparation was in progress
to subvert the Constitution, and replace it by the benefits
of an absolute Government ; the Bonds early were done at
604 a, but are now 61 4,-; Brazilian are 59 ; Danish,
sq 601 ; Russian, 87 ; and Spanish, 111 12. In Shares
there is nothing new to report.
