SPAIN.

Our accounts from Madrid are of the 3d inst.
M. Medizabel died on that day.
The Gazette publishes the following Royal
decree :

"In virtue of the prerogative conferred on me by the
30th clause of the Constitution, and conformably to the
proposition of my Council of Ministers, I appoint Don
Manuel de la Pezuela, Marquis of Viluma, President
of the Senate for the next session, and Lieutenant-
General Don Francisco Zavier Maria Giron, Duke of
Ahumeda, Don Francisco de Olavarieta, President of
the Supreme Tribunal of Justice ; Lieutenant-General
Joaquin Bayona, and Don Francisco de Borja de Bazan
y Silva, Marquis of Santa Cruz, Vice-Presidents.
"Given at the Palace, November 2, 1853.
(Signed) " THE QUEEN."
We read in the Herald() :
" A letter, written by General Prim to a person in
Madrid, confirms the intelligence brought by the foreign
journals, that the brave Spanish General was to be em-
ployerl by the Sultan the moment hostilities commenced
with Russia. According to that letter, General Prim,
in his journey from Constantinople to Shumla was es-
corted by 600 cavalry. The journey was so fatiguing,
on account of the rigour of the season, that only one
officer, a Spaniard, reached the head-quarters of Omer
Pasha safe and sound, and that 15 horses died immedi-
ately on arriving. It was very probable, should the
General accept the command offered him by the Sultan,
that he will be placed at the head of the divisions of the
advanced guard."
M. Marfori, a relative of Marshal Narvaez, had
been named Corregidor of Madrid.

LIVERPOOL, WEDNESDAY, 7 A. M.
By the steamer Atlantic we have advices from
New York to the 29th ult. She has brought
$500,000 in specie on freight.
The steamer Niagara arrived at Boston from
Liverpool on the 28th ult.
The details of the California news, per Northern
Light, had been received at New York by the ar-
rival of that steamer there. In addition to
$1,500,000 in gold dust on freight, there was a
large amount in the hands of the passengers.
There had been but few sales made from first hands
in San Fraucisbo markets • but notwithstanding
this, there had been considerable purchases of dry
goods for the interior, and most of the jobbers had
done an active trade.

The late accounts from Washington state that
on the 24th of October there were treasury war-
rants entered for the redemption of 101,b81/.
United State Stocks.

By the steamer Texas, from Vera Cruz, arrived
at New Orleans, we learn that the revolution in
Yucatan had been suppressed, after a loss of 300
men. The, Spanish Minister had suspended his
relations with the ,Mexican Government, and left
the capital.
The barque Harward, from Newport, bound to
Norfolk, went ashore on the 22d ultimo on Wacha.:
prique Shoals, and sunk to her deck in the sands.
Crew saved.'

The ship President, of Boston, from St. John's,
New Brunswick, for Liverpool, with deals, was
driven from her anchorage off Partridge Island,
and went ashore near Red Head, and it was thought
would become a wreck.

A loose feeling was manifest in the New York
Stock Market. At the Bank brokers' the minimum
rate for the best commercial paper was 12 per cent.,
and nothing done less. Prime paper quoted at 12
to 15 per cent., and second-rate paper 18 to 24
per cent.

THE STEAMERS owned by the Mail Packet Companies
at the port of Southampton, including those which are
building, are 101 in number, viz., 33 screw and 68 pad-
die-wheel steamers. The tonnage of these is 109,419,

LETTERS FOR THE ARCTIC SHlPS.—Letters for officers
and men serving on board the Enterprise, Rattlesnake,
and Plover, in Behring Straits, to be sent to the Ad-
miralty on or before the 31st December.
PRICE OF GOLD.—The quotation of geld at Paris i°
about 2 per mille discount (according to the last tariff',
which, at the English price of 3/. 17s. 10id. per ounce
for standard gold, gives an exchange of 25.12 ; and, the
exchange at Paris on London at short being 25.00, !t'
follows that gold is about 0.48 per cent. dearer in Paris'
than in London. By advices from Hamburg the price'
of gold is 423 per mark, which, at the English 311121"
price of 3/. 17s. 100. per ounce, for standard gold, gives
an exchange of 13.38 ; and, the exchange at Hartiburg i
on London at short being 13.2 j, it follows that gold s
0.77 per cent. dearer in Hamburg than in London. The
course of exchange at New York on London for bills at
60 days' sight is 109/ per cent., and, the par of exellang!
between England and America being 109 23-40 per col'
it follows that the exchange is nominally 0.17 per cent.
in favour of England ; and, after making allowance for,
charges of transport, the present rate leaves a small
profit on the importation of gold from the United States
