We hive no turthei particulars regarding the Dankint-house
which stopped payment an Saturday, and which at present has
not bad the least effect on the Consul market, as Consuls opened
thiiriviiiiing at 87j for th.t ,Account, and at present may be
quoted at 87k, alternately buyers and sellers.
The 'frigate M ale Therese arrived at Toulon on the 16th
instant, front Algiers, vi hick she left ois the 9th instant, with dis-
patches for the French Government. The Der still refuses all
negotiations, particularly with the French Officer: commanding
the blockading squadron., It appears that the Algerines are divided
into two parties, one for peace and the other for war.

'Crimes have got up to 871 for the Account, and at present may
be quoted at 117i1 1. This sudden rise is attributed to a person who
sold largely on Friday, having bought its his Bear Account this
morning.
