Malta, her Majesty's ships Victor Emmanuel and

Private letters from Mazagan state that the place
was full of wheat, and that 10 vessels were in that
bay ready to ship it, but nothing could be done
until the Governor received instructions from the
Emperor on the subject.
South-westerly gales prevailed with great inten-
sity along the Barbary coast.
A box, containing specie, has been saved from
the remains of the Brazilian corvette lately wrecked
near Cape Spartel.

The Gibraltar Chronicle of the 28th of Novem-
ber says two Spanish men•of--war steamers were
lying at Mogadore waiting for treasure, which the
Moors had promised to pay towards the war indem-
nity. Only one merchant vessel is reported to be
loading at the port.
Lloyd's agency for Gibraltar and Algesiras fur-
nishes the following particulars :—lntelligence has
been received of the loss, at Suffi, on the 16th ult.,
of the British schooner Aurora, which sailed from
Mazagan on the previous day for the said port. She
struck on a rock at Cape Cautin, when the master
ran for Saffi, and beached the vessel at that port,
where she became a total wreck.

The British cutter Union, on her voyage from
Cork to Seville, was totally lost on the night of
the 22d ult. on the rocks of Salmedinas. It appears
that the master and two out of five raen composing
the crew left the vessel and were drowned, the other
two remained on board, and were saved by the cap
tain of the Darro steamer the following morning,
who sent a boat and took them off the wreck, and
landed them at Cadiz.
The survivors of the ill-fated Brazilian corvette
Donna Isabella, wrecked on the coast of Barbary,
were despatched to Lisbon, per Gibraltar, on the
22d ult. From Lisbon they will be sent to the
Brazils.
