SATURDAY, AUGUST 2, 1828.

STOCK RXCHANGE, TWELVE O'CI.0( K.

The Consol market opened very heavy this morning, and Consols
were done at 86i; but on the Chancery Broker coming into the
market, and purchasing four hundred and fifty thousand em,ols.
they went up again to 87% I for the Account. This ini,!den
start in the market has depressed the spirit of the Bears, as. they
were relying on the return of the bad weather for the depression
of the funds.

In the Foreign market not a bargain is doing, it is almost de-
serted, and the prices are nominal. ,
CITY. HALF-PAST ONE O'CLOCK.

Although the Chancery has purchased, in the early part of the
morning, 432,000 Cunsoli, the Market is not quite so good. Con-
sols have been fluctuating during the morning between 861 and
87i, at present may be quoted at 6171. Two Brokers have also
made large purchases.

The Paris Papers of Thursday, like those of the pre-
ceding days, are without any news trom the theatre of
war. These Papers contain a Proclamation of the Pre-
sident of Greece, on the passing of the Danube by the
Russians; and whilst it acknowledges the advantages
that must accrue to the Greeks in consequence, it wisely
cautions them against trusting to it too much, but to con-
fide in the united efforts of the Allies. At the same time it
acquaints them of the subsidy gloated by the Emperor
NICHOLAS, and expresses a confident expectation of re-
ceiving a similat succour from England and France. It
is extraordinary; that whilst informing the nation of what
is to be done it its behalf by the Allied Powers, he should
make no mention of the intention of France to send an
army to the Mot ea.
With respect to .this expedition, the Message, des
Chambres, the official French Paper, assures us, that
" it has no object but the execution of an existing
treaty." i 4 The troops of IBRAHIM are in the Mo-
rea," it addr—..4 it. is not sufficient to cut off their
communications with Egypt—it is necessary also to
put an end, by the display of a military lot ce, to a
state of things which is in opposition to the conditions
of the Treaty of the 6th of July. Every thing gives
reason to hope that the bare presence of our soldiers in
the Morea will put an end to the occupation, and will
complete the execution of that Treaty, which is the
generous object of the present expedition."

In the meantime we are informed by the Augsburg
Gazelle, that Inaamat PACHA has signified his wil-
lingness to withdraw himself and his troops from the
Morea, provided he is supplied with the necessary
means of conveyance. Either the rumour is groundless,
or why should Fiance send an army to compel him to
do that which he is willing to execute of his own accord?
