SPAIN.

The Connell of War have pronounced sentence
on the authors and accomplices of the mili-
tary rebellion in Spain. General Prim, Bri-
gadier Milano del Bosch, all the superior
officers and sub-officers are condemned to be shot.
Several senators and a good number of generals at
present in active service have been condemned to
the same penalty more than once, and yet they
seem very well and happy.

THE WEST INDIA AND PACIFIC MAHAL

SOUTHAMPTON, Maws 2.
The Royal Mail Steam Packet Company's ship
La Plata, from the West Indies, has arrived with
53 adult passengers, 1,125,000 dola. and 2,400
packages of cargo.

The Canadian commissioners were well received
at Demerara. At a meeting of the Court of Policy
the members expressed themselves in favour of
trade with Canada, and suggested that a line of
steamers be subsidised partly by the West India
colonies, and partly by the Canadian government.
Excessive rains at Demerara had impeded sugar
making. Business was quiet.

At Grenada the weather was favourable to
planters. The arrival and distribution of coolies
had given an impetus to agricultural operations.
The health of the island was good.
Cholera still prevailed at Guadaloupe, but was
slowly decreasing.
A considerable quantity of rain had fallen at
Trinidad, rendering the shipment of sugar difficult
in the cane localities.

The weather generally was not unfavourable.
The commissioners from British North America
arrived in her Majesty's ship Buzzard on the 3rd
ult.

It is anticipated that a large trade will be opened
np between Canada and the West India islands
generally.
The news from Ecuador is unimportant. The
reports from the Barbsooes Mines are favourable,
and five men are said to be taking out 601bs. of gold
weekly.

The President of the Cauca had issued a
decree granting a full amnesty to the revolutionists
condemned by court-martial last November.
Five new gold mines had been discovered in the
State of Cauca.

At Aantioquis things were quiet and mining prin-
cipally absorbed public attention. The tobacco
crop was excellent and everything in the state be-
tokened progress.
