THE FUNDS.--(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TWRI, YE o'CLOCK.
Our Foreign arrivals are numerous this morning
of mails from various parts.
Extract of a private letter received at the North
and South American Coffee-house, by the mail from
Buenos Ayres, of the 9th June
" The civil war continues, and the authority of
Lavalle extends no further than the streets of the
city ; the Monteneros party increases daily, and
amounts to 5,000 men ; they intercept the supplies
to the city, and skirmish with the troops and militia
almost every day in the very streets of the town.
Lavelle has lost his popularity; efforts are now
making to end this horrid war, and to open a Dego-
ciation for peace with the federal Chieftain, Don
Juan Roses. Business in a manner is suspended
here, and for weeks together the shops are shut,
and every person liable to serve is placed under
arms. Exchange, 10d. per dollar."
Consols, which left off on Saturday at 87i f,
opened this morning at 871 for the account; the
business doing is not extensive as yet.

We understand that there is no doubt of some
ships going to our fleet in the Mediterranean, but
report says they are to replace some coming home.
In the Foreign market nothing doing as yet, and
prices are nomimal.

TWO O'CLOCK.

Consols have been done in the course of the
morning at 88 for the Account, and at present they
rna) be quoted 87-i to 88, and for next Account
88k. A good deal of business has been done in the
early part of the day.
The private letters received from Manchester
this day state, that business there was in a com-
plete state of stagnation, caused by the heavy
failures, with reports of others. The number of
people out of employ continues increasing daily,
owing to the manufacturrs stopping their mills; and
unless business soon revives, great fear is entertained
of riots taking place.
Private letters have been received from Cadiz of
the 3d August, stating that the packet from the
Ha vannalt had arrived there, which left the Bth
July, bringing information that the expedition for
Mexico had sailed on the previous day for the Gulf
of MexiCo, but the real destination was not known.
It was supposed they would land at Tampico or
Catnpeachy. The troops on board amounted to
5,600 men ; there were still remaining on the island
1:3,670 men, without including the militia, which
were composed of 7 to 8,000 men.

It is now understood that the Gloucester is going
to the Mediterranean to relieve the bpartiate, which
has been out four years; also the Melville, to re-
lieve the Asia, which has been out three years.
Letters from Amqerdam, received by the Mail
this morning, state that a Pigeon Company has
been formed there, and they receive expresses by
them from Paris in 20 hours.
Accounts have been received from Sierra Leone,
stating that a great vumber of persons have fallen
victims to a fever that rages there.
The exchange by the packet from Rio Janeiro,
comes 23i to 2.1•; but there are later accounts by
three day., via Bahia, which brings the Exchange
25 to . The political affairs at Rio are more fa-
vourable than the last information.

In the Foreign Market Danish and Russian Stocks
have improved; Brazil Shares have lowered five or
six pounds per share.
THREE O'CLOCK.
Consols for Account, 87i 88.
