THE FUNDS.

CITY, (Tins DAY), Twelos o' Cloth,

The businees in the English Funds has been very limited, which
may, in some measure, have arisen from the number of persons out
of town, enjoying themselves during the holiday week; Console
opened at 80i 1 for account, and since have become fiat at 80/1 ;
India Bonds are 26 0 ; and Exchequer Bills, 17 10 pm. Tho
Foreign Funds, from the above cause, and the recent want of con-
fidence so generally felt, which is not yet re established, have had
very few transactions ; Mexican Bonds continue firm, but not at
any material advance, and may be quota! at 64i 6 ; Colombian,
1824, 34 ; Portuguese at 70 1; and Spanish, 12 13. Shares
are without any novelty, and the prices are given at rather lower
rates.

GREECE.

Extract, of a letter from Dr. 8. G. Howe, a highly re.
ipectable American, well known in Greece
Napoli di Tturnania, July S.
Ah'expression in your last letter pained me much. You
say " many who were formerly enthusiastically attached to
the Gleek,cause,now say they believe them less entitled to
sympathy than the Thrice." This is doing them much
injustice, though I ion forced, to say, that many of them
justify such an opinion; but there are redeeming spirits—.
there are men who would honour any cause, any country
do not believre those who may denounce the nation as
Ivanting honour or patriotism ; sueh do not know the
Greeks, or, fioni disappointed hopes, detract from their
merits. They judge the nation by those they meet with
in Napoli and the seaports; men who, having spent their
lives in Europe, have adopted European vices; they do
not look at the character of the peasantry—of the moun-
taineers--they do not take into consideration that Greece
has, for four hundred years, been crushed under the
weight of a despotism more grinding than that of the
West India slave system. Jut I say, and without fear
of contradiction, that- the modern Greek, notwithstand-
ing his life of slavish oppression is a more virtuous,
pleasing character then the Sicilian, the Italian, the
Spaniard, or the Russian ; and that he has more ,
shrewdness and 'quickness, and es much talent, as the
native of any other part of Europe. It is curious to hear
the relation of the wanderings of one of them; there is
in the same house with me, an old Greek, who I delight
much to talk with ; he is a .man of tried courage and
covered with wounds; he has fought with the Mamelukes
Egypt; he served as a Cossack and fought with the
Russums, followed them to Paris, wandered in every corner
Of Europe, knovi's the character of all its nations; he has
been a most shrewd observer of men and manners; such
a man is a pre.ciotte volume, out of which one may glean
much valuable matter; it is his pride to boast that neither
he nor his father ever paid tribute to the Turks; that he
has killed them on every occasion, and that he left a
Major's commiesion in the Russian army to come and fight
as a common soldier for his country. Perhaps I weary
you with these details, but I assure
you, could you hear
them from his mouth, Kau Would never tire. Last night,
talking over with him t e clouded pi ospeets of the country,

I said to him--" Well! we will stand it out to the last,
and when all is over, we shall go together to America."
The old man's eye flashed fire, then melted—a tear ob-
scured it—" No," said he, " save yourself; go and live
beloved in that happrland of liberty ; but I, I have drawn
my sword for my country, and I swear that when she
fulls, I ►will sheath it in my own bosom"— Boston Courier.

TO THE EDITOR.

SlR—Since the appearance of my letter of this morning, I have
had an interview with Mr. Shaeketl.

That Gentleman has given to me and to the Editor of Mr.
Canningia Speeches much an explanation as has satisfied both him
and me, that the Speech published in the John Bull came into
the possession of the Editor of that Paper in the fair and regular
course of business.

I have 0n1y....t0 add that the explanation given to me by Mr.
Shackell is so full and satisfactory u to justify the high opinion 01
his integrity, which, from a knowledge of twenty-five years,
have entertained, and which I believe be deservedly poseesses.-1
remain, Sir, your most obedient and very humble servant,

THE FUNDS.

CITY, Twelve e' Clock.
a The English Funds have been very steady all the morning, at
fur Money, and 8044 for Account, the transactions have
nit terto been of little importance.
The
Principal interest in the Foreign Funds has been greatly
Nexc by the arrival at Portsmouth of His Majesty's frigate the
ur, from Vera Cruz and Havanna'', with the Mexican Mi-
nister sad spe'cie. The letters by her are not up, but her passage
must have been very quick, and report states she left Vera Cruz
on the Ist, and the Havannah the 15th Sept. ; with respect to the
quantity of specie, it is said to be 500,000 dollars for account of the
Mexican Government, and the same quantity for merchants'account.
This arrival being known before the opening of the Foreign house,
gave an impetus to the Mexican Bonds, which have gone up to 6536.
Colombian Bond* left off yesterday at 38 4, and opened this morn-
ing at 40 but advanced to 404 1 ; Greek Stock is a shade
better, being 14 4. In Shares, the chief novelty is the great im-
provement in Real del Monte Mining Shares, which, from 100
at which they have lately been at till within these few days,
have advanced gradually,and are now quoted at from par to 20 pm.;
this rise is said to be caused by the highly favourable accounts
Which have been lately received from their agents.

was killcowd belonging to Wm. Lucas Shadwell, Esq. of Hastings,
e in consequence of having betrayed symptoms of hydro.
phobia. The annual was bitten on one side of the nose about
three weeks previous to the above date, and on Thursday, Aug.
£46, refused to take either drink or food, and when water was
placed before it, seemed greatly agitated. The sight of a dog
occasionally put upon a wall excited the cow to acts of violence,
and she would frequently foam at the mouth, and run her head
straight forward ageinst what-might coin* in (onteact. Several
days before she was slaughtered, she became exhausted, emaciated,
and in a desponding state. Ott dissection, the windpipe and the
(esophagus, with the muscles serving the purposes of respiration
and deglutition, presented not the smallest appearance of intlam.

Mt the coast of Candia, the Sybille has sailed for that poini.
Two of the vessels of war which, were contracted to tie
built for the Pacha's account, at Marseilles, are arrived,
and a third, commanded by M. Besson, is daily expected.
A division of the Paella's fleet has returned to this poit
from before Missolonghi, bringing about a thousand of the
wretched beings that were captured on the taking of tilt
place : they are mostlytwomen and'helplesa children. The
proprietors sell them at from 20 to SO dollars a-head, in
many have been released by the humanity of Frank
bitants ; the rest are dispersed through the different Del-
zaars in the interior. The importation of Greek slave
has prevailed ever since the Pacha undertook the ming-
tion of Candia, but none have ever excited such generil
sympathy as the unhappy persons at present on sale, from
the consideration due to their departed relatives. It Is
disgusting mid degrading to. the feelings of Franks at 4I
Christians to see these poor captives placed the .most
frequented places to attract. buyers, hawked about thie
streets in the way of an auction, or bartered against' com-
modities in the shops ; and, in the hands of Mahominedant,
a world Of ill-treatment awaits them, as, in general, the }hit
idea of a Turk, on getting posiession of a slave, is to make
a convert, 'and' the Greeks are mostly very tenacious of
their religions creed.

THE LATE MR. HUTCHINSON.

The, following letter we extract from the Cork Consti-
tution of Saturday. The second, it will be seen, was
written, or dictated, by Mr. Hutchinson, from his death-
bed:— •

TO THE EDITOE Or THE CONSTITUTION.
Sir---„At the desire of my brother, Mr. C. H. Hutchinson, your
late Representative, expreraed to me a few days previous to his
death, which took place yesterday evening, I beg leave to solicit
your immediate insertion in your paper of the enclosed Address,
which it was his wish should be forwarded to Cork as soon as he
ceased to exist.
I have the honour to he, Sir, your nhedient servant,
A. A. HELY HUTCHINSON.
Hampstead, Aug. 27, 1826.

TO THE ELECTORS OF THE CITY OP CORK.
Gentlemen—For the first time that I recollect, I feelpain in
addressing you.—My mind has ever rejected the ides that confi-
dence reposed in the father, should be considered as entitling the
son to form an expectation to be himself honoured with similar
confidence and approbation; however naturally arnbitioned by him.
I do assure you solemnly, that so much real delicacy have I ever
felt on this subject, I should never have ventured to have addressed
you upon it, hut that information has reached me, which I can
'aearcely doubt, that declarations have already been made by several
Most:respectable interests to support my son, in the event of the
vacancy to be created by my death.
Timm him to be talented—extremely well informed—and I
%Hy believe, fully equal and entirely disposed to perform all the
duties of your Representative. 1 should, indeed, be quite ashamed
of him, could .I entertain any doubt of an anxious desire in this
respect:

At such a moment, whet; addressing you for the last time, and,
as 1 conceive, from my death-bed, it is the farthest thing from my
intimtion make any ungenerous, unreasonable appeal to your
*ifeetionsl
dinuld be miserable, indeed, did Iles reason to apprehend that
'nY death would cause the .recital of party fend or, renew, those
dissensions amongst the most respectable families, which lead to
such luting an 4 painful results •
hi If
~ever addressed you, as I often have, as my most generous
and benefactors, you will not doubt the sincerity with which
repeat these epithets on the present solemn occasion 1-
I have the honour to be, Gentlemen,
With iiiucere-affection, your greatly indebted,

ICAITEIC or icinit4i, A BANKRUTT.
Thisfetition was -Prisented for,the purpose of superseding the
commission,' -and.' the great point Was, whether the commission
bad been taken out for the purpose of putting an end to an action
that had been previously commenced by Mr. Bourne, and not
with the additional intention of letting the commission have its
operation as a commission. This branched off into two ques-
tions ; the first was, what was the matter of fart ; and then,
what was the law ? The opinion of his Lordship most decidedly
was, that if the object of the commission was, as above, the law
would not allow it to stand. This he stated, following the law
as laid down in Ex-parte Wade, in the matter of Wade, decided by
by himself, which law he was prepared to say, he would again
lay dowu, if he had the same case to deal with to-day, notwith-
standing, from representations made of that case, it appeared
to him it had been rather quarrelled with elsewhere. The
inquiry consequently was, what was the object of taking out
the commission. This was to be collected from the depositions
under the proceedings, and the 'affidavits filed in the matter.
From these, his Lordship's judgment was, and particularly from a
letter written by the person who took .outthe commission, that the
intention was, that its operation should be entirely concluded by
putting an end to that action, and that therefore the commission
his Lordship would supersede, perusing the order himself, that
the principle on which he proceeded might not be mistaken. His
Lordship heard several applications, and closed the business before
him at one o'clock, stating.that he should not sit again till Satur-
day, which he meant to make a long day.

CONFERENCE WITH THE LORDS.
A Message having been sent by the Lords requesting n
Conference with the House, Mr. Husitissow, and several
other Alembers obeyed the summons. Mr. 111/MKISSON, on
his return from the Conference, informed the House that their
Lordships having examined the resolutions, had desired him to
express to the House their entire concurrence with them ore the
subject.

BANK ADVANCES.
Mr. HUSKISSON, in rising to move for jgave to bring in
the Bill for which he bad given notice, said it would he in the
rec.illection of the House that when, his Right lion. Friend
stated that the Bank bud consented to advence money upon
goods, they expressed a hope that the new law of Alerchant
and Factor would be AUMlted to come into operation Ur protect
them against leeies which might arise out of these trene-
atitions, he therefore proposed now to bring in a Bill pro.
viding, that any goods, upon which the Bank shall have made
advances doring the present crisis, shall be considered a
pledge to the Bank, although they might only have been con.
signed to the party to whom those advances had been made. 11C
meant, that where certain symbols ofowitership were.iaroduced,
and the party held the property, that his act should be binding
on the real owners. When Exchequer Bills were advancer}
under a Commission in 1793, the advances were protected by a
provision in the Act similar to that which he now preposed.—
There was i. that case a departure from the law of the lend ,and
all they proposed to de now was, to accelerate the time at which
operation: Upon such goods as were
