THE ruN DS.

A considerable re-action has taken place in the
Funds since Monday. On that day Consols were
done at 75% for Money, and 76 for July; yester-
day they fell to 741/2 fqi Money, but finally left off,
at 75. This morning they began at 74 h for Money,
for next time 75%; they then fell to 74 5/s, and for
the Account to 75%, being a fluctuation of three
quarters per Cent. These fluctuations are attributed
to the settlement of differences to-morrow, being Ac-
count day. The scarcity of Money Stock continues,
and the monied men are still in favour of a farther
rise.—Current Prices at One otlock :

The Paris Papers of Sunday arrived this forenoon.
They announce the deaths of two individuals a
considerable note, M. CAMILLE JOURDAN, of the
Chamber of Deputies, and Marshal the Duke de
ColGNY.—There are no farther accounts from Spain,
nor any other articles of foreign intelligence except
the following:
PARIS, MAY 19.

The most recent letters from Italy announce, that
a frigate and a corvette had set sail from Genoa for
Villa-Franca, near Nice, where they are to take on
board the King, Victor Emmanuel, who will repair
to Viareggio, and thence to Lucca, to see his august
daughter, and also to confer with the new King,
Chatles Felix.

His Majesty will be escorted in his voyage by two
frigates, one English and the other French, both of
which are already arrived off Villa•Franca.

VIENNA, MAY 9.

Within these few days there has been arrested at
the barrier of Tabor, on the Bohemian road, a fo-
reign traveller, who calls himself Colonel in the ser-
vice of Russia, and bearer of very important dis-
patches for Laybach. His passports were false. The
pretended dispatches were also seized. There is great
impatience to know the ulterior details of this event.
Many families of the most distinguished Boyars of
Bucharest and of Jassy are arrived at Vienna; they
display in our city great opulence.
. There are also at this moment in this capital, a
certain number of Greek Agents, to take care, no
doubt, of the interests of their nation. They observe
great caution in this respect, and the Authorities have
received particular instructions, which render them
very zealous in their observation of them.
We are still in hopes of seeing our Sovereign be-1
fore the end of this month. Everything announces
that the Emperor Alexander will make a short stay
here. His Majesty will take the route of Croatia and
Hungary, on his return to his own dominions. We
are assured that the two Sovereigns have interchanged
amicable assurances of seeing one another again be-
fore a year is over.
Prince d'Esterhazy has received a mission to repair
to London, to'assist at the Coronation of the King oft
England. His Excellency will be accompanied by'
Counts Esterhazy,. Metternich, and de Gatterbourg.
French Five per Cents.—Saturday, 84fr. 95c.

At a late hour this forenoon we have received, by
express, extracts from the Paris Papers of Monday,
being a day later than the preceding. We hasten to
extract from them a number of interesting particu-
lars with respect both to Spain and the Greek Insur-
rection. The Spanish accounts appear to us to bear
evident marks of strong exaggeration:

MADRID, MAY 10.

One of our Papers of to-day (The Constitutional)
pretends that liberty was offered to all the persons
lately arrested at Cadiz as suspected, except a Monk,
who is to be tried, but that none of them would leave
their prison. Did they fear some new excess of po-
pular rage ?—This is not yet known.

It is much to be feared that the assassination of
Vanuesa is but the prelude to other acts of ferocity,
which will stain our Revolution with blood. There
are two other facts which 1 can certify, and which
• I
must inspire equal horror.
In the last bull fight, a trumpeter, well known for
his liberalism, was placed near a person violent in
favour of the contrary party, a dispute arose between
them, caused by their divergence of opinion; and the
latter, taking a knife from his pocket, stabbed the
trumpeter twice, who fell dead on the spot. The
second fact is this: in the environs of Aranda de
Duero, some Monks assembled in a little wood, where
they concerted measures to form a band of partisans.
—The Magistrates being informed of it, and the
National Guard of Aranda, sent out to seize them, in
fact arrested them; but, instead of taking them to
the town as prisoners, they tied them to trees, set fire
to the wood, and burnt them alive.

It is mentioned as certain that our treaty of offen-
sive and defensive alliance with Portugal is con-
cluded: this is probable, as the outlines were ar-

ranged by the secret Agent of Portugal. who was
here some time ago.

M:rinn, who was supposed to have HA to rraeee
after his defeat, appears, it is said, more formiclAtale
than ever. To consider the great quantity men,
horses, and money, which he is supposed to have,
one would say he procures them by enchantment k
k said he has many French soldiers, who hire re.
mained in Spain since the war, and he still occupies
his old positions between Mitanda, d'Ebro, Burgos,
and Briviesca.

The Government, it seems, has given notice that it
will punish, with the utmost rigour, the Alcades
who, under the pretence of compulsion or any other
reason, shall furnish him with rations or assistance
for his band, even though *he should pay for them in
ready money, as he is in the habit of doing. As for
the other bands which had shewn themselves is
other places, they seem to be dispersed, at least we
hear no more of them.
