The 'Change is fertile in rumour tiati niovning : many of
them are of a warlike complexion, and others state, on the au-
thority of letters from Antwerp, that Russian Stock had fallen
five per cent. These rumours have had some effect on our
market; and Cou3ols, which opened at 743, fell to 74i, at
which price they remained steady up to the present hour,
though little business is doing.

FOREIGN FUNDS.

STOCK EXCHANGE. ONE O'CLOCK.

The Israelites, who are known to have the best intelligence,
have offered Spanish Stock this rnorping at one per cent. lower,
owing, it is supposed, to the news brought by express from
France this morning. Our *own Funds are a very trifle de-
pressed. Foreign Securities, in general, are lower.

We lay before our*Readers to-day a correct state.
rnent of the Revenue for the last Quarter. The ac-
counts which have appeared in one or two of the
Morning Papers are in several particulars erroneous.
The result, as we announced on Saturday, is highly
satisfactory. There is a surplus. over the charge On
the Consolidated Fund of £2,133,769; in the corres-
ponding Quarter of last year it was- only 0,545,047.

We have received by Express _pristine accounts
from Paris, of the date of Saintday evening. They
state, that dispatches had been received from Hit
IRoyal Highness the Duke D'AttoottEsts; annonnc-
ing his arrival at Bayonne on the 29th ult. and con
taining.the copy of
.an Order of the bay, which.on
the 30th addressed to the Army of Invasion.. Front
the abstract of this order transmitted to us, it appears
to contain nothing different from the usual tenor of
such addresses. It was still expected that the army
would not be able to move for some time.

Three days French Papers have reached us; those
of Saturday have been received by express. The-
Paris journals one after another, are relketantly com-
pelled tnacknowledge the arrest oil*. DE LOSTA NOE,
the aid-de-camp of General GUI/J.IIIISM', who has
been conducted to Paris, and lodged, in the prison of
the Abbey. The Journal de Paris saki "he is said
to be suspected of having taken part in a plot." An
article. from Bayonne,. in
.the Cons: itutionnel, says,
"'Phis arrest has given rise to many conjectures: that
nearest to the truth, is said to be the seizure of a par-
cel, which was directed to him, from Paris, contain-
ing tri-coloured cockades, and other Bonaparte em-
blems." It is further hutted, that General GuILLE•
MINOT is recalled to Paris ; and another account, di-
rect from Bayonne, goes so• far at to intimate, that
even the General himself is suspected. "We expect
every moment," says this article, dated Bayonne,
March 29,'" the Marshal Duke of BELLI'S°, to take
the place of General GUILLEMINOT, as Major-Gene-
ral of the Army, thulatter, it is said, being implica-
ted in the conspiracy for which his Aid-de camp. was
arrested. They speak of eagles and tri-coloured
cockades sent from Paris." •

The Journal des Debats of Saturday states as.cer-,
tame, that the French army will make its first move-,
meat about the 7th of April, and that the corps of
'the Duke of REGGIO will cross the Bidassoa on the'
10th. Orders have been given for the establishment
of a line of telegraphs from Bayonne to Paris; which,l
it is said, will be in full activity on the I.sth. This.
paper also contains a letter from SAETOE LADRON,
one of the chiefs of the Army of the Faith,. in which
he pretends that he has gained'a victory over a de-
tachaseut of the Constitutional Army, andlas taken
600 prisoners,

The Chamber of Deputies are still occapied with!
' discussing the Budget. In the Sitting of Thursday,
M. de LABOURDONNATE again made a long speech
against the Ministers. He accused them of having
been, while in opposition during the day, the
friends of the Ministers in their evening parties; that
M. de Villele had once passed a whole night with M.
; Decazes ; and he was informed that the Ministers
were still on friendly' terms with their old opponents.
M. de VstLaLe warmly defended his conduct,-and
said, " No, Gentlemen,. I have contracted no engage-
ments bit towards the King, the *Chamber,
.and
France; and I shall fulfil them as long as the King
I and the Chamber coatinue lo honour me-with-their

anfidence.: prove that I have lostfit, and then only,
there tvillsbe vounds2l r attacking." * • ••.
M. de Lamotranotaluitit.—*;. That is no arrswer:
`rft fie Ver.ter.e repelled his words, saying--:" 1(1
had any other engagement, I should not; be. Siteeeilli
to be Minister." He then entered into a very lbag
defence of various parts of the conduct of the Minis-
try, in which he was several times interrupted by one
party, and applauded by others.
Friday, the subject was resumed ; when the prin-
cipal speakers were M. BaztltE, and the keeper of
the Seal,. The latter vindicated his conduct in the
late prosecutions at Poictiers, Strasburg,. &c.
The Conslitationnel contains an account of a dis-
turbance at Brest, which originated in the allegedill
treatment of an inebriated woman by some Swiss
soldiers. The populace rescued the woman from
their hands, and placed her in the house of a M. Pi-
, card. The soldiers forced the door of the house, and
M. Picard and his wife were taken off to prison. This
arrest excited great discontent, and numerous groupes
shouted out, " Long live the King ! down with the
Swiss!" The generale was beat. and the city gates
shut, though it was only eigkt o'clock in the evening,
and a great number of people were without the walls.
The sentinels were doubled, and the troops under
arms ; great confusion ensued ; the inhabitants who
wished to enter the gates flung stones over the ram-
parts; tome muskets were fired; the inhabitaritswere
ordered to shut themselves up in their houses; at
length tranquillity was restored, and the only result
of the tumult was a regret that such violent mea-
sures had been employed on such a trifling occasion.
The Mayor issued the following proclamation :

" Inhabitants of Brest !—Yesterday was marked by deplorable
scenes. Several peaceable inhabitants have reason to complain
of violence employed against their persons :.in contempt of the
law the asylum of a citizen was violated, and he himself assaulted
in his own house, by the armed force whose duty it was to pro-
tect him. Your Magistrates are making scrupulous inquiriei
into the affair, and you may reckon on severe justice being ex-
ercised against tl! guilty. Confide, therefore, in their solicitude;
ntaintain that calm attitude, and that harmony, of which you
have already given so many proofs."
The Constitutionner also mentions that the mann-
facturers and merchants of Lyons have forwarded to
the Chamber.of Deputies, a Petition for the mainte;
:stance tf peace with Spain. It further states, that
.setrendinhabitints in the department of the Arriege
had been put nion their trial for having aided the
Meatti Otiottre Spanish prisoners taken by the Army
of the. Faith. They were, however, acquitted.

throwing some, stones at them. The intervention of
the armed &ice dispersed the rioters, and the peace-
able citizens. returned home without.hindrance.
There hns also been a tumult at Housse,,a Com-
mune two leagues from• Bayonne. A regiment, which
is in cantonments there, wii:dispoie.l'to treat the in-
habitints as if. it was in a' conquered country. Re-
sistance, was made; the MajOe caused the toOsin to

The stsictest orders-have been given, that all per-

corps of the army, shall immediately repair to the
destinations assigned them.
it is also expressly ordered not to allow with the
army any women, besides those authorised by the
regntations, as suttlers or laundresses:.

The-Duke d'Asioou. Lama was expected at Bayonne

sand for his reception. The Duchess d'AxeouLesse
