(Extract of a letter from Paris, dated Saturday.)
This moment we have accounts that the English have taken
possession of the small sea port of Plencia, which is probable,
as it comes from the Carlists on the frontiers.

In respect to local affairs the address to the Queen's Speech
by the Peruvians, coinciding with all the measures in the
Speech, has given full confidence to the Administration of Men-
dizabal, and the Spanish Funds were improving at Madrid.
HALF-PAST ONE.

(Extract of a Letter. )
CANTON, DEC. 16.—We have an arrival from Liverpool,
July 18, but the Officer who left the ship with the letters
was seized by a Chinese man-of-war outside, and is detained.
We have this day been to the City Gates with a remonstrance
about it, and after much scuffle and row, have obtained a pro-
mise that he will be released. The poor fellow wrote a letter
to his wife, detailing his most awful situation, manacled hand
and feet with a chain round his neck, threatened momentarily
with decapitation—no clothes, rice and tea for food, and all this
for nothing. Great complaints have been made by merchants
at Canton, from the refusal of several of the large ships to deli-
ver their goods at Wampoa, owing to which great loss of time
and profit has been sustained ; it is expected hut some
measures will be taken in this unmercantile affair, Exchange
4 10. Trade rather better.
We hear that the next operation of Lord John Hay on the
coast of Spain, will be an attack on Foraarabia, a small sea
port of Guisposcoa, in the possession of the Carlists, with 200
marines, aided by about two thousand picked Spanish and
English troops, who will march by land.
It is reported that an express has arriTed from Madrid, with
two days' later intelligence, but as yet we have not heard the
contents.

Consols maintains the morning prices of 91i 92 for the Ac-
count and for Money, with very little doing in the above funds.
Exchequer Bills, 20 22 : India Bonds, 6 8; Bank Stock,

In the Foreign Market Spanish Active Bonds continue
buoyant, with a good market, owing to the favourable accounts
from Spain, with the expectation that the Spanish Dividend
will be advertised on the 15th inst. Spanish Active Bonds
hes reached 474 ; Deferred, 21i ; Passive, 14;; Portuguese
841 ; Three per Cents., 541 ; Columbian, 32i 33 ;
Mexican, 3k_fa Dutch, 56:1-.
In the Share Market the prices much the same as on Satur-
day. Great Western rather higher; Stevenson's Brighton
rather lower.
