THE FUNDS-(THIS DAY).

CITY, Tituara o' aocr.

The fall in the Exchanges has again this morning
been the sole subject of conversation on the Royal
Exchange. A degree of importance seems to have
been given to this point greater than the, actual de-
pression deserves ; it has been well observed, that
when the Funds were full eight per cent. higher than
they now are, the Exchanges were less in favour of
this country ; with the exception of one place, there
is no profit on the export of Gold, and even then it
is so small as not to encourage speculations of 'this
kind. A feeling has got abroad in the minds of
many persons that certain wealthy and extensive
speculato►:s are out of Stock at the present moment,
and having sold out some t►me since at prices less
than now quoted, to avoid coming in at a sacrifice,
have caused the alarm which, operating on the mind
of the Stock Exchange, and Jobbers wl/41, are but
little acquainted with the subject, has excitktkade-
pression, during which they will quietly come in,
'and supply themselves with a sufficient quantity of
Stock to satisfy their wants, and then it will be all
of a sudden found out, and a wonder will be felt how
they could have been such dolts. Consols opened at
881 sellers, for the Account (at which rate they were
done, in the Alley on Saturday, after the House
closed,) immediately. after a complete panic took
possession of the market, and they declined rapidly
to 871, but are somewhat recovered and are now
871 for money and account, and 88 for October;
Exchequer Bills are 60; and India Bonds 92 4 pm.
The French Funds of Saturday are rather higher,
the 3 per Cents, 73 65 ; and the 5 per Cents.,
104 60 for the eud of the month.

The Foreign Funds have not been much attended
to this morning, the sole point of attraction having
been to Consols ; Mexican are 68 4 ; Colombian,
31 I ; Greek 151 4, but nothing doing.
In Shares, Real. del Monte are again on the de-
cline, and are now 50 30 dis.; United Mexican,
19i.

It is understood that Doctor PETT, Canon
of Christ Church, Oxford, will be the .New Bishop of
Carlisle. He was formerly the tutor of Mr. CANNING.

The Marquis and Marchioness of EXETER
stopped at the Fortescue's Arms, in this town, a few days
since, on their way to Ilfracombe, from whence they re-
turned on Tuesday, and proceeded to visit their Noble re-
latives at Stevenstone and Heanton Satchville.—North
Devon Journal.

FUNERAL OF THE REV. SIR HENRY MON-
CRUM-Yesterday the funeral of this venerable and
highly respected divine took place. The Session of the
parish church, and the Sessions of the three Chapels of
Ease, assembled in the church-yard, and joined the proces-
sion when it entered the gate. After the solemn duties
of the interment were performed, a meeting of the Pres-
bytery of Edinburgh was held in the Session-house, when
one of their number, we believe Dr. Andrew Thompson,
was rppointed to preach to-morrow forenoou.--Edinburgh
Evening Courant.

LINEN BOARD.—The official communication
to the Linen Board, announcing that the future services;
of that establishment will he dispensed with by the Go-
vernment and the country, has, we understand, been for-
mally made by the Lord Lieutenant to the Board. We
heartily contragulate the public and the merchants en-
gaged in the linen trade, upon a consummation so long
and devoutly wished for : the " vested rights" of the
Members of the Board, as well as all the subordinate mem-
bers of their expensive establishment, we have no doubt,
will be faithfully and judiciously advocated, both in Par-
liament and at the T,Tasury Board, with what success
" we shall see."—Dublin Morning Post.

On Tuesday week the ancient silver arrow and
other prices were shot for on the banks of the Swale, ❑ear
Richmond, Yorkshire. After the shooting, the archers,
with a select party of friends, partook of a sumptuous
dinner, provided for them at the Fleece Inn, and kept up
the social spirit of the day till a late hour.—Durham
Advertiser.

ADDRESS OF CONDOLENCE ON MR. CAN-
NING'S Drazit:—An Address to his Majesty on the death
of Mr. Canning was agreed to unanimously at a public
meeting held in Keighley, on Wednesday, for that purpose,
and in the course of the day the address was signed by the
principal inhabitants of the place. Yesterday this address
was forwarded to the Marquis of Lansdowne, to be pre-
sented to the King at his earliest convenience. The design
of the address is to express the condolence of the inhabi-
tants with his Majesty, on the loss the country has sus-
tained, in the death of Mr. Canning, at this important
jdncture, when the unrestrained exercisa of his brilliant
talents and liberal sentiment, and his patriotic plans of
retrenchment and economy, gave promise of the happiest
results to his country. The addressers humbly express
their sawsmine hopes that the liberal principles and ce-
lightenedviews with regard to trade and religious liberty,
which Mr. Canning professed, and which are founded on
the sacred rule of " doing to others as we wish they
should do unto us," may long continue the ornaments
and bulwarks of his Majesty's Government. The address
also contains thanks to his Majesty for setting on foot the
subscriptiOn for the distressed manufacturing population,
during the late season of commercial embarrassment; and
concludes with the expression of a full reliance on the
wisdom of his Majesty's measures in the present juncture of
affairs.—Leeds Mercury.
GROUSE SHOOTING commenced On .MOll-
- with very auspicious weather, and the game has
proved, as we last week anticipated, most abundant, but
particularly in the upper Highland districts. On the first
day several sportsmen bagged from 30 to 40 brace! each,
and last night nearly two hundred boxes arrived from dif-
ferent quarters for the south. On the moors adjacent to
the low country the sport has also been generally success-
ful. The coveys are numerous, but the number in each
is remarkably limited, and the disparity in point of
size and age between birds of the same covey is such
as was never before known. This is attributed to the
great snow storm near the end of last April, by which
the greater part of the eggs were destroyed, and it is
supposed a second brocd had been afterwards hatched.
On the Logiealmond Moors, Colonel Paterson bagged
33 brace of grouse on Monday. On the Ochil Hills, to
the south of this, the sport is good, several gentlemen
killing from 6 to 15, and others from 15 to 20 brace a
day—Perth Courier.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.)

GUILDHALL.

Eton, a young 'man, seemingly about 16 years
old, end of highly respectable appearance, was brought up
before Mr. Alderman Tuoarit, charged with having ex-
cited his father, threatened, and challenged him to box.—
He was remanded till Friday next.

INDECENT Exrosuitit.—No less than'four persons, two
men and two females, were charged with indecently expos-
ing their persons publicly in the course of last night; one
pair took a very appropriate place, namely, the Pig Market,
Smithfield.—The Alderman discharged all the prisoners,
observing, that if the nui ;auce was found to be continued,
the different parishes in which they were repeated, would
have to form resolutions to indict the individuals.

HORSE-STEALING.-Peter Thorogood
,was charged
with having stolen a horse off Epping Forest, the property
of Henry Eve. Mr. Eve turned it out on • the 17th of
October last, and a few days ago he found it in the posses-
sion of a person of the name of Mills. Mills bought it of
William Lovegrove, a chair-maker in the New Kent•road.
The prisoner came to him with the poney in October last,
and after agreeing to buy a cart, asked permission to leave
the poney, stating that he would return in a day or two
for it. He did not return again for a fortnight afterwards ;
he did not then take it away, but asked to be allowed to
leave it for a further time. He never afterwards returned
to take it away. Lovegrove kept it at half-a-guinea a-week,
for sixteen weeks, at the Lord Wellington public house ;
then he advertized it three times for sale, but
mot immediately finding a purchaser, he worked it
himself until he parted with it to Mills. Thorogood was
apprehended yesterday by an officer at a public-house in
the Kent-road. He said lie had got it in exchange for an-
other at Maidston Fair, of a person calling himself Wm.
Jones, of Tunbridge, and'asked for time to endeavour to
find Jones. The prosecutor stated, that the fair was on
the 12th of October, and that the poney was not taken
away till the 17th. Remanded till Friday.
