Up to the present hour we have not a feature in the Consol Mar-
ket worth noticing. Consols, which left off yesterday at 92i for the
Account, rather heavily, opened this morning at 921 f, and 93 fin.
next Account. It is not supposed that the speculators will act until
they can ascertain the financial measures of Ministers.

In the Foreign Market no business going forward as yet, in con-
sequence of which most of the prices are nominal.

Madras Papers to the 24th October have been received at the
North and South American Coffee-house.

From the Madras Gazette of the 3d October.

There have been no arrivals since our last report. Exchange on
London, six mouths, sight, 1.81. The Right Honourable the Go.
vernor in Council deems it expedient to direct that the cantonments
at St. Thomas' Mount and Palavaram shall in future be considered
as forming part of the centre division of the army, and that the head-
quarters of that division shall be eitablished at the Presidency.

By the Guernsey Paper received this morning, we have accounts
of an alarming fire which took place in the above city on the 15th
February. It broke out on the premises of Mr. Jeromie, in the
High-street, and in the course of half an hour spread so rapidly that
the house was entirely consumed; after which it communicated to
Mia Baynes's Hotel, which shared the same fate. The hoase of
Mr. Brehaut, Ice. and that of Mr. Apter, on the oppoeite side of the
street, suffered considerably. The amount of damage, we under.
stand, is from eight to nine thousand pounds, neatly the whole of
which was insured.

The French Papers bring accounts from Laguira of the 24th
December, describing the political meeting at Carmen, for the sepa.
ration of Venezuela, which has been already published.

Accounts from Cadiz state that the frigate Perle and the ship
Francis, which sailed from Barcelona to take troops on board, re-
turned to Cadiz. A corps is collecting to be sent to the liavannah.

HALF PAST ONE.

The Funds have been the whole of the morning without anima.
tion. Consols, in the early part of the day, were done at 92j for
the account, since which they ;lave been, buyers and eaten, at 92j,
and for next account 93 buyers.

We have no political information up to the present hour. All
that is reported in regard to the Four per Cents. it only Stock.
jobbing manoeuvres, u Ministers are too wise so communicate their
secret intentions, to promote gambling.

The Foreign Market Is in the same state of stagnation as that of
the British. Brasil has rather Improved, and most of the other
Stocks are much the same as yesterday.
