THE FuNDS.—This being iettlinkday the House
was crowded at an early hour, and from the great
fluctuAtitTh (10 per Cent.) that has taken place

during the Account, much anxiety was expreised
to know the opening price ; Consols for Money
began at 651, fell to 651, rallied to 66, but again
declined to 64, for the Account, 66 64, 661 66 ;
before 11 o'clock upwards of two millions of
Stock had been purchased, and the business done
was almost unprecedented. As the Account day
is.generally devoted to settling the differences on
this occasion, they are very heavy, but no de-
faulter bad been declared at 12 o'clock. At near
one o'clock Consols had recovered again, having
risen to 67-1, though they „shortly afterwards de-
clined to 66k, for the Account 67x.

As all the wisdom and knowledge of the. Le,
gislature, with all the suggestions of the first com-
mercial characters in the Country, are at present
employed on the important subject of the exile-
(Jitney of resuming CASH PAYMENTS, it would
ill become us, and would, indeed, manifest the
utmost presumption, were we to attempt to lead
the' People through the labyrinth. We must
therefOre refer them to the Parliamentary Re-
ports, which we have endeavoured to render im-
partial as well as ample, in order to enable our
Readers to judge for themselves on a subject
which we feel ourselves unable to place in a new
light, or to provide a clue more likely to guide
them through the maze than what may be sup-
plied by the collective wisdom of our Legislative
Bodies, and the solid experience of Commercial
Authorities.

The Bill brought into the House of Lords, last
night, by Earl GREY, for the repeal of the Oaths.
and Declarations enacted by the 25th and 30th of
CHARLES 11. agair.^t Transubstantiation and the
Innovation of SAINTSi though apparently of a ma.:
derate and harmless n4tnre, giving all possible
credit to the Noble Lord for the purity of his
motives, we cannot but consider as calculated to
remove one of tire securities of our present Esta-
blishment in Church and State. Those enact-
ments were founded in true wisdom and sound
policy, and we trust that the eyes of the Legis-
lature will not be blinded by an appearance
of specious magnanimity, or the sagacity of Par--
liament slumber over a measure which, in our.
opinion, is pregnant with latent mischief and
danger.

We insert this day a Letter from our Corre-
spondent in Paris, because we rely upon the
goodness of his intentions, and the general accu-
racy of his views. We must also admit that lie is
likely to possess better information than ourselves,
as we know that his sources are peculiar. But
we confess that we totally disagree with bins re-
specting the present King. of SWEDEN and the
Emperor of RUSSIA. He says, that " CHARLES
JOHN Was adopted by the late legitimate King,
CHARLES XIII.; he succeeded him as Heir to
the Throne, confirmed by the voice of the Na-
tion." We deny the legitimacy of CHARLES
He drove his lawful Sovereign from the Throne,
and be was an Usurper. We deny also that the
voice of the Nation has been beard in Sweden.
As to the services rendered to the great cause of
Europe by CHARLES JOHN, it is well known that
he acted in a very dubious manner, and it is confi-
dently said that he at last came forward under
threats of exposure it he remained longer unde-
cided. Neither can we agree with our Corre-
spondent in his estimate of the character and de-
signs of the Emperor of RUSSIA. We consider
him as a Monarch disposed to raise himself by
virtues rather than by. ambition, and that, with
a mind enlightened by more experience titan
-Potentates in general are able to acquire, be is
chiefly solicitous to promote the honour of his
Country and the general happiness of mankind.

,CORN-EXCHANGR, MAY 2G.—We had but little
English Wheat at Market this morning, for which
rather more money was asked, but could not be
obtained ; as such, our prices remain as on Mon-
day. In Barley there is little or nothing doing,
the malting season being nearly over, and there
is no demand for Foreign, although offered at low
prices. The Oat trade continues very heavy, anti
to effect sales a reduction of Is, per quarter was
submitted to, the quantity at market being very
large.
