It will be noticed that the activity lately wit.
nessed in the export of cottons is not fully kept up.
As regards linens, the movement is somewhat be-
low the average, but the shipments of woollens
have suddenly and largely increased. There is also
a rally in iron and haberdashery. Tin plates, silks,
and raw wool still figure on the unfavourable side.
The annexed shows the quantities of the chief
articles of food taken for consumption during the
month :

WRECK OF THE ROYAL CHARTER.—Found, at
Red Wharf Bay, the body of John Griso, with a consider-
able sum of money, &c., in his pockets. All information can
be obtained by applying to the Rev. W. Williams, Tvddyn,
Pentreath, Anglesea. There was also found a gold orna-
ment, with the initials " J. W."

THE FATAL AFFRAY IN A PUBLIC-lIMSE.—An
inquest was held yesterday at St. Bartholomew's Hospital,
on the body of John Jones, aged 39, who was stated to
have died from the effects of a kick in the side, given him
by the landlord of tho Ship Tavern, Glasshouse-yard, Gos-
well-street. The examination of the latter at the Clerken-
well Police-court was reported in our paper yesterday.
The inquest was adjourned.
It is understood that a plan is contemplated to
form a limited joint-stock company for the purchase and
working of the brewery of Messrs. Calvert and Co., on the
principle of admitting the unsecured creditors to convert
their dedts into stock, and issuing a preference stock of a
limited amount to the public,

SPAIN.

The Madrid journals of the 21st mention a fact
not previously noticed,—natnely, that the Bishops,
in their addresses to the Queen on the subject of
the war, take occasion to speak of the Pope, and of
the difficulties which beset him, in similar terms to
those employed by the French prelates. The con-
struction of a steam frigate to be of 500 horse
power had been commenced at Carraca. In come-
queue() of the blockade of Tangier the English at
Gibraltar were buying oxen in Spanish ports. The
following is the first telegraphic despatch received
concerning the operations of the Spanish expedi-
ti3n in Morocco :

Caz, Nov.
" The General-in-Chief of the " Istdi corps (Echa-
gue), in a telegram dated 8 a.m., this day, from
the camp of Serolla at Ceuta, states as follows I have
taken possession of this post and am throwing up en-
trenchments. Operations have been delayed because the
state of the sea prevented the troops from landing with all
the despatch I had expected. I have reconnoitred all the
heights that commands Serolla, and am selecting one of
them to be fortified. During the short fire by the Moors,
we had one man wounded. The Moors have not appeared
in force; we have only seen a few groups, which retired as
our sharpshooters advanced. This is all I have the honour
to report at present, and I communicate it to your Excel-
lency that her Majesty may be informed of it.' "
Serolla is a small Moorish fortification which serves
as a refuge to the Kabyles who guard the camp
outside the town.
