CITY, ONE O'CLOCK.
We have but few arrivals this morning : one from Cal-
cutta, four days later than the last accounts ; but we do not
hear that it brings any news of consequence.
Consols, which left off yesterday st 821 for the Ac-
count, opened at 82i, with little doing as yet.
The Foreign Market is void of interest.
A schedule is published of the Funded Debt of the
United States of America, and of some of the individual
States of the Union, up to November, 1830. The United
States debt is 42 millions 82 thousand and 313 dollars,
with a revenue of upwards of 11 millions of dollars per
annum to liquidate the same.
The debt of the States of New York is eight millions
794,770 lent by the state to Delaware and Hudson
Canal Company, of New York. Ohio debt, 4,400,000.
Pensylvania debt, 11,980,000 dollars.
Louisiana, 4,900,000.
Accounts from Brussels state, that a treaty of commerce
is to be concluded with France on the following basis : France
is to receive from Belgium her cattle, oils, and linen ; and,
in exchange, Belgium is to receive: French wines, silks, and
jewellery

CITY, Two O'CLOCK.
Consols continue firm, at 8211 for the account, although
little business is going forward. The Dutch Mail does not
bring any information but what we already know. Their
funds have rather improved in the Foreign Market.
We have received the following important commercial
letter from St. Petersburgh, the 24th Dec. " Our
funds have risen since yesterday. Paper inscription from
106 to 108 ; 6 per cents. metallic are in request at 104 ; 5
per cents. 89i.
It is computed that London absorbs 20 of 30 millions of
public annuities, and full half the other taxes ; hence in
round numbers 30 out of 50 contribute to raise overgrown
London capitals. These then are the absorbents of our
national industry, and hence a superabundance of
Money, to lend on real Securities, and the utter
destitution for liberal objects of what such persons
deem uncertain enterprise. The accumulators only
trade through lawyers, and hence their capitals are useless
to a trading community. Then government adds to their fa-
cilities, by its twenty or thirty millions of accommodation
Exchequer Bills, so that trade is starved, and for want of cur-
rent capital rendered profitless. A public debt, and floating
government securities, are therefore quite incompatible with
prosperous commerce. The country hankers' issues formed a
practical counterpoise, but this the collective wisdom thought
it wise to destroy !
Our Readers would have observed by the STAR of Sa-
turday, that the Birmingham Political Union, with their
usual sound discretion, have petitioned in favour of a general
amnesty, to the deluded agricultural labourers. If the
throne adopt the language of the Gospel, and say to the
whole of them—" Go, and sin no more;" and if active
measures are adopted to restore the ancient number of farms
—and, by consequence, employment—a grateful people
will soon be again, altogether loyal, content, and happy.
For our parts, we entertain the most sanguine expectations,
that in the result, the present administration will not disap-
point the hopes of their best friends.

There was not a vacant seat in the Palace chapel yester-

ilm contents of these despatches, if we may judge from the
etriet injunction imposed on the couriers.
