lately appeared in the French Globe, on the sub-
ject of the Duke of WELLINGTON'S policy. This
of course gives him an opportunity of indirectly
sneering at Mr. CANNING—a Statesman whom
the New Times, perhaps this very scribe himself,
larded, some months since, with the most unmea-
sured and unmerciful eulogy. His star, however,
was then in the ascendant—now, unhappily, it is
quenched. Still, notwithstanding this, a respect
for consistency—a regard for character—a feel-
ing of common decency, ought to have weighed
some little with a public journal, whose first great
claim to notice depends upon the undeviating
firmness of its principles. But the New Times,
we learn, is about to change its name ; which of
course proceeds from a conviction that an
" alias" was wanting, and that the sooner its
original cognomen was laid aside, the better.
Should it, however, persevere directly or indi-
rectly in its attacks on Mr. CANNING, we shall
refresh its memory, by republishing what it said
of him at a time when it imagined that some-
thing better than mere fame was to be obtained

by eulogy.
With respect to its remarks on Messrs. GRANT
and Husxissow, we shall say nothing ; their
principles are too firmly grounded to be shaken
by a Paper whose praise is more .to be deprecated
than its censure.

F.-ailed the Robarts, Corbyn, for Calcutta.
FALMOUTH, SEPT. 18.—Wind E.—The Lord
Hobart packet, from Brazil, has arrived off Port,
but as the wind is light, it is not probable she will
be in time to save this post.

M‘Gilowan, from Quabara ; and Martha, Herbert,

THE FUNDS-(THIS DAY).

CITY; TWBLTR O'CLOCK.

The English Funds are in a complete state of
idleness, without either reports or business. Con-
sols for account opened at 87-1 8, and have continued,
without any variation, at this price. India Bonds
receded, late yesterday, to 91 6, and remain at the
same premium ; Exchequer Bills, 75 6.
The Foreign Funds are equally deficient of inte-
rest, and scarcely a transaction has hitherto taken
place. Spanish Bonds maintain their advance, being
12; Portuguese, 56 i; Russian, 94. x; Chilian
are rather higher, being 29 30 ; and Greek, 19 20.
Shares are at present scarcely mentioned, and no
change in prices can be quoted. The only arrival
otf Falmouth is the Lord Hobart packet from Brazil,
but nothing has transpired, and the mail is not up ;
she was to leave Rio on the 25th of July, and con-
sequently will bring four days' later accounts from
that quarter, but is not expected to bring any intel-
ligence of a political importance. As Donna Maria
da Gloria, her Alost Faithful Majesty, *ould not leave
Gibraltar before the 6th or 7th inst., and from the
state of the wind, which is contrary, some delay may
still take place before the English shores are honoured
with her presence : it seems, however, she is to be
treated with every mark of respect attendant on
Royalty on her landing, and preparations are making
for her residence and suite.

Three per Cent. Consols, 87,1 8 ; Ditto, for Account,

TWO O'CLOCK.

We are without any arrivals, not a single list having
come from any quarter to Lloyd's; Consols remain
stationary at 87i 88, and the house is nearly deserted.

EXHIBITION' OF MODERN PAINTINGS, S.C.

—The Birmingham Institution, for promoting the Fine
Arts, which has sprung up within a few months as

if by magic, was thrown open on Thursday. The
number of paintings by seine of the most eminent
artists in the kingdom give the present exhibition a charac-
ter superior to any collection of modern paintings that has
been opened to the public out of the metropolis, and will
form a point of great attraction.—_Lichfield Mercury.
LORD BYRox.—At the time Lord BYRoN
was one of the committee for the management of Drury
Lane, a pretty young woman, who had been smitten with the
disease of scrawling poetry, went to his house with her ma-
nuscripts, to request permission to dedicate her work to his
Lordship. He received her in his library, and made many in-
quiries respecting her situation and mode of life. Finding she
was dependant, and had formed the intention of trusting to
her pen for her future subsistence, he urged her in the
most eta:pent and gentle manner to abandon such a.
thought; and pointed out the wretchedness of a mode of
existence at once so laborious and precarious. He warned
her of the great danger of doing what she had then done, and
counselled her never again to visit a young tnan either in
his own house or any where else ; and having ascertained
what she expected to receive for her manuscript, which
he advised her not to publish, he presented her with a 50/.
note, and dismissed her, full of gratitude, and deeply
affected by his dignified kindness, and the sterling value of
his advices..--,Literury Gazette.
