The Ce(Cu_{x}Ni_{1-x})_{4}Mn series of compounds has been studied for a wide range of the x values. The magnetic properties are determined from the temperature dependence of the dc and ac magnetization. A large irreversibility is observed between the zero-field cooled (ZFC) and field-cooled (FC) curves with a maximum in the ZFC one. The ac magnetic susceptibility also shows a peak, which shifts to higher temperatures with increasing frequencies, which is typically observed in spin-glass (SG) systems. The observation of the SG behaviour is further supported by a very slow decay of the isothermal remanent magnetization and by the typical shape of the magnetization curves. A range of x values showing the para-ferromagnetic-SG transitions has been found.
