THE SUN NEW-SPA PE R. —This Journal was first
started on true Constitutional Tory principles, by the
late Illustrious WILLIAM PITT ; but, in the present state
of the rat press, it would be difficult to say what its politics
are—perhaps it has none ! Be this as it may, one fact is
certain, that it is•conducted with great spirit and much
talent.—We wish the Editor had been kind enough to
include us in the list of those who were furnished with his
second edition.

THE FUNDS-(THIS DAY).

CITY, TirELrE o' CLocr.

The City is completely barren of intelligence to-
day, no Mails having arrived. The general opinion
seems to be that news from Constantinople cannot
be received before Monday or Tuesday next. We
are also free from reports that can in any way affect
the Fuads. Consols for the Account opened at
86k, and they are now 86k, buyers; the business
doing is inconsiderable Exchequer Bills, 57 pm.,
and India Bonds, 92 pm.

In the Foreign Market there has been but little
doing; Mexican Bonds are 54i; Colombian, 28 f;
Brazilian, 601; Greek, 181; Russian, 931; Spanish,
10. Anglo Mexican Mining Shares are 62f dis.;
Brazilian, 44 pm; General Mining, 7 pm.; Real
del Monte, 10 pm.; Tlalpuxahua, GO dis.; United
Mexican, 20 dis.; Alliance Fire, par; Ditto NI&
rine, f dis.

HALF-PAST TW O.

Consols 85i, Mexican 541, Columbian 28i. An
express is said to have arrived from Paris, bringing
the price of the French Rentes rather lower ; several
quotations are given, but none to be relied on.

Consols for Account, 85i, sellers.

About 100,000 ounces of silver, and 1,000
ounces of gold were shipped to Hamburgh this week. The
price of bar gold remains unaltered, and therefore, so far
as the precious metals may be considered to affect the cir-
culation, the most timid feel assured that we are still with-
in the limit of safety.—Times.
We have seen a gentleman who was at Naya-
rit' at the time of the engagement. He assures us that the
Russians suffered much more severely than either the Eng-
lish or French, from their having been more exposed to
the heavy fire of the batteries. Their ships were dread-
fully mauled by the large shot which struck them. But
the accounts of the actual loss will be received front St.

Petersburgh. —Morning Chronicle.
A motion for a rule to show cause, in a point
of considerable importance, was made by Mr. JERVIS in
the Exchequer Court yesterday. It was made with a
view to ascertain whether the recent law in respect of
mesne process, by which no man can be held to special
bail for a less sum than twenty pounds, extended in its
operation to cases of subpoena and attachment in the Court
of ExChequer. The Act has been held, without question,
to extend to the Common Law Courts ; and indeed it is
worded as comprehensively as can be well imagined. The
discussion that took place on Mr. JERVIS'S motion was
altogether singular. The Court was about to grant a rule
to show cause, when Sergeant JONES rose, admitted the
service of the rule, and proceeded to argue against its being
made absolute. Judgment was deferred. The Cntxr.
BARON and Mr. Baron VAUGHAN seemed to incline to-
wards Sergeant JoNEs'S
.view of the Statute, that it did
not include the process of subpoena and attachment issuing
from the Exchequer. Mr. Baron llura.ocx and Mr.
Baron GARROW were of opinion with Mr. JERVIS that it
did. —New Times.
We hear that there is the " devil to pay," at

the Royal Society; and, that a President, uniting in him-
self all the necessary qualifications, is not to be found.
Mr. DAVIES GILBERT, by far the most eligible member of
the Society, has positively declined the honour, but we •
shrewdly suspect that he will nevertheless be chosen vi et
armis. We have beard that one Learned Member has
actually proposed a certain timber merchant, who shall be
nameless : should he be received, we may fairly conclude
that the Society will no longer be matchless.
We understand that a meeting of the Bankers
of this county is shortly to be held for the purpose of co-
operating with the Committee in London, formed for pro-
tection of the Country Banking interest.—Shrewsbury

Chronicle'.
Yesterday, between twelve and one o'clock, a
sailor, in the act of descending the stairs of the Monument,
on Fish-street-bill, fell down head-foremost, by which
casualty he broke both hiS legs, and was taken to the hospital.
TILE FAMILY EXPURGATOR.—The Rev.
Mr. BOWDLEIL has lately obliged the world with a " Family
Gibbon" and a " Family Shakspeare," in which every
gross and improper allusion is carefully expunged from the
text. It is rumoured that the same gentleman has it in
contemplation to publish a " Family Bible" on the same
plan.—London Weekly Review.
MURDER.—On Friday last a Coroner's In-
quisition was held by adjournment at Sutton-in- Ashfield,
near Mansfield, on the body of JAMES Ilm.; son of Mr.
Him., of Fulwood, farmer, who was found on the highway
a fortnight ago, some distance from home, in a dreadfully
bruised state, from which he died. After a laborious hear-
iug, a verdict was returned of " Wilful Murder against
sotne person or persons unknown." The unfortunate
young man bore an excellent character for sobriety and
mildness of disposition. 'F he Magistrates have been en-
gaged in investigating this melancholy deed,
has yet happened to throw any light upon it. ---,Doncaster
