THE FUNDS.

It is reported this morning, among those whose
interest induces them to watch the movements of
the two great Stock jobbing parties, that hostilities
have ceased. Whether any concessions have been'
made by the one or the other no one presumes to
conjecture, or upon what terms the reconciliation
has been, effected, but it is certain that the Jewish
leader and a well known Banker dined yesterday
together. The Market is nearly stationary, but little

New York Papers arrived this forenoon to the 25th
October. The following are extracts:
EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM AN 'MUER ON BOARD
ONE OF TUE BLOCKADING SQUADRON oFF CA RIBA-
GENA, DATED TUE 125TH OF SEP lEMBER
" Our brig has just left the blockade at Cartha-
gems. The city is ut a very deplorable situation,
having very little provisions, and no firewood: they
are even burning their doors and balconies. Their
rations, by the account front some deserters, is one
ounce of beef and two ounces of rice per day. The
English frigate, Tribune, came to an anchor of the
city, for the purpose of taking the Governor and his
effects ; the boat was sent on shore, but stopt by the
besieging General, Padilla; upon which the frigate
commenced firing, when Padilla got his gun-boats
out, and made the frigate depart. The frigate then
went to Havannalt. The Governor then agree to
surrender the city on the 15th inst. whether the fri-
gate returned by that time or not. On the lith we
left there, being ordered up to Rio de la Hache, to
take on board Bolivar and the troops destined for
Porto Bello, at which time they were keeping up a
constant •fire from the town on the Patriots, who sur-
rounded the city, and were building forts, &c. The
gun-boats have got entire possession of the harbour,
The American brig Struggle lies there, having been
cut out horn under the forts by the gun-boats. The
Struggle was loaded with provisions from Havannah,
. and is very much cut up by the forts of the tow; and
had several of her crew killed."

CUUACOA, SEPTEMBER 22.
Accounts from Puerto Cabello state, that theLigera
frigate was lying there ready for cea, and was to sail
in a few days for Cumana, with several vessels under
her convoy, laden with military stores, for the relief
of that place.
The Spanish privateer schooner Cecelia, of -seven
guns, and about 80 men, sailed from Puerto Cabello
on Monday, to assist it. the Module of lAguira.
A party of the Independent forces has been for
some time past within a short distance 'of Puerto Ca-
bello, and has had a regular skirmish every night
with the Spanish outposts, and often drove them
back so close to the town that the/ashes of the mus-
ketry were distinctly seen by persons on board the
dripping in the harbour.
A force of about fifty men occupied the Vigia. This
is a strong fortification ►which commands Puerto Ca-
bello. The guns were removed some time ago.
Accounts irons Nlaracaybo announce the arrival of
General Bolivar in that city, being the first time his
Excellency ever vi,ited it. We are informed that he
intended to proceed to Santa Martha and Rio de la,
Hache, for the purpose of inspecting these places,
and from thence to the head-quarters of General
Montilla, probably with a view to give additional im-
pulse, by his presvnce, to the operations carrying on
for the ;eduction of Carthagena.
CARACCAS ((harxrc). AUGUST ea
AU the offspring of the slaves born after this date
will be free. Their masters will bring them up, and
provide for them, until their eighteenth year, and
until that period enjoy their services. No slaves can
be•sold beyond the provinces of their habitation; nor
can any children be separated from their mothers.—
Slaves can no longer be imported; and a foreigner
arriving in any of the ports of Columbia, will be al-
lowed to import but one, under the denomination of,
a servant, whom be must carry with him on leaving
the country, otherwise he will be looked upon as free.
Those slaves who have hitherto performed useful cer-
vices to the Republic, will forthwith be considered
as free.
Coro is again ours. Colonel Ichauspe came over
to us with 500 men. Tello had returned to Puerto
Cabello, with his few followers.
