[THE TIMES.)

Oitr intelligence from the City deserves some
attention. When the barometer is seen to vibrate
vitith rapidity, philosophers infer an unsettled
state of the atmosphere ; and the motions of the
funds yesterday would lead us to augur any thing
rather than a firm and tranquil state of, public
credit. They sprang at once two and a quarter
per cent. to ; then they receded by more
than per cont. from that eminence; afterwerds
they overtopped it by U. Upon the whole, how-
ever, there was an advance of more than two per
cent. ; and this advance is said to have been
owing to the Baek's pouring its paper into the
market for the purchase of Exchequer Bills.—
The Manchester end Liverpool merchants are, it
will be seen, urgent with Government to issue
more Exchequer Bills, by uhirh they suppose the
embarrassmeots of trade will tie diminished. But
they will tolve roeeived no answer to their eP-
plicatiou in the act itself which Government and
the Bank have conjointly performed ;—that is,
iu the purchase by the Latter of the Exchequer

NEW Buti.DINGS AND IMPROVEMENTS.—The
building speculations in the suburbs of the Me-
tropolis are still continuing to an unprecedented
extent. The whole of Mil!bank, from Vauxhall
Bridge to the Waterworks at Chelsea, will, in
the course of two or three years, be covered
with houses, a contract having been entered
into for the erection of five thousand, The em.
bankment of the river has already commenred, and
the grounti-4-taised, and hollows filled up to
a height of five feet above the old level. This
has been found nececessary on account of the
marshy nature of the ground, as also to secure a
good drainage, and the work is now carrying on at
great labour and expenre,the rubbish necessary for
the purpose being brought in barges from distant
places.AtCheiseaconsiderable improvements are in
contemplation, particalarly in the vicinity of Lord
Grosvener's new canal, adjoining to which a basin
or reservoir for the Water Company is h agita-
tion, and the site of the once celebrated Renelagh
Gardens will shortly be covered with buildings.
On and about the Five Fields several new streets
are formed and squares and crescents will spec.
dily appearabout this spot. From thence through
Kensington many thousand houses are built, and
as many more in progress. Towards Hammer-
smith Chiswick, and adjoining places, the same
extensive preparations are going on. These al-
terations will increase to a great extent the pro.
perties of Earl Grosvenor, Lord Holland, and
Lord. Kensington.

INCLUDON.--.(lFOrCeSier, Feb. 17.)-----Poor
CHARLES had been ill seriously about five weeks,
in consequence of a paralytic attack, but we had
no idea he would go otr so soon. lie died on Sa..
turday night, at twelve o'clock precisely. Mrs.
- had been with him six hours previous,
about four of which he was insensible. Isis deathwas very easy---as easy as.a tired infant fallingasleep. The. executor, Mr. Green, of Mincing.
lane, arrived here on Wednesday morning, when
it having appeared to have been his wish to have
his remains deposited in the vault at fiamstead,
where his treafornver Wives and live children lay,
on-
it was determined that should be the case. Ac.
cordingly the hearse left 'here this morning, with
the intention of arriving at Bayswater on M
day, where it will be met by his family and
friends.

TITE EARL di" DONOUPTIMOM—It Is with CPO-
ings of most sincere regret we have to announce the severe indis-
hposition of this accomplished and highly gifted Nobleman
at
is seat, Palmerston-house, near Dublin. The death of' his
much lamented brother, the late F.arl, seems to have atreeted his
Lordship's mind with n feeling of sorrow too sincere nut to be
lasting.—( Dublin Everting Post.)

Ax ELoPEMENT - FAUX PAC—Boulogne is
place which has become rather famous for " single," as well as
" double elopements." Instances, however, do happen that nn
embargo is laid on intended fugitives, which, although to the
mortification of the parties, produces some satisfaction to the
anxious parents. One had just taken place which has occa-
sioned some conversation. A Mr. and Miss ---- had
laid a scheme to act out on an expedition, and to be joined in
" holy matrimony" at Dover. A " just" and serious ' cause
and impeditnet,' however, occurred from their not obtaining
the consent of the lady's father, who was attempted to be kept
in the dark. Two o'clock had been fixed on for their depar-
ture, but the fair one, thinking time did not fly sufficiently
fast, and that she ought • to he of earlier, prepared to " keep
moving" at 11, and then set out. Sitspicion was awakened,
and her intended elopement reached papa's ears, who applied
to the Police, and six strong kens d, crates were sent off as
scouts in different directions, oor " Miss in her Teens" was
laid hold of, and politely introduced into an npartment in her
father's house, where she was to be sole inmate, and there
locked up by him, and for greater security he keeps the key in
his pocket. It is almost unnecessary to add, that she is now
quite "fiat," and the intended bridegroom in the lowest " key."
So sure were the parties and their adviser that the thing would be
accomplished, and a safe arrival at Dover be the consequence,
and with keen appetites, that a young Thespian friend, cm--
ployed as an avant courier, ordered a bountiful breakfast for
them, at a particular hour, when the packet was expeeted.--
But lo ! after pacing the quay at Dover for two hours aft,r
the time confidently fixed for their appearance on the British
shore, he concluded, to hiss, mortification, that sonic mbar-
mesment must have taken place, of which he was afterwards
assured, when be was left exclusively to enjoy the repast, and
finish his part of the play by paying the piper. It is said, that
had these hasty lovers. just wetted till the carnival had com.
menced, greater facility might have been atibrded to have ef.
acted their scheme.--(Sunday Timer.)
