GIBRALTAR, June 16.
Commercial letters received from Mangan and
Casablanca by the Amazon, state that the prices of
wool continued the same, and the supply was short
at both places. The crop of maize and garbanzos
are very abundant this year, but the bean crop is
lost in consequence of the late rains. An officer of
the Sultan arrived at Tetuan on the 6th, and it is
inferred that he was the bearer of peremptory
orders for the departure of the Governor Hash
Hash, who is disgraced for want of proper activity
in the pursuit of the assassins of the French sub-
ject at Tetuan. Hash-Hash set out for the Sul-
tan's Court the day after the arrival of this last
messenger. The advices from Tangier confirm the
report that the Sultan had given full satisfaction
to the demands of the French Government, and
state that all differences had been finally arranged.
