SPAIN.

According to the Madrid journals of the 23d, the
populations of Santander and all the adjacent
towns were manifesting great enthusiasm at the
presence of the Queen in their province, and were
sending deputations to present congratulatory ad-
dresses to her Majesty. One of the journals having
said that the English ship of the line St. Jean
d'Acre had left Gibraltar for Almeria and Malaga,
and that the belief was that she was charged to
receive the insurgents of Loja, who are in flight, the
semi-official Correspondancia remarks:—
" The relations between the English and Spa-
nish Cabinets are at the present moment more
cordial even than in the war of independence.
The protestations in favour of the dynasty and of
social order in Spain, which have been recently
and solemnly made by the representatives of Queen
Victoria relative to the events in Andalusia, leave
not the slightest hope to the enemies of the laws
in Spain that they will obtain any protection from
England."
Another insurgent of Loja, of the name of Mel-
lado, had been condemned to death and executed,
and two others had been sentenced to 20 years' hard
labour, and three to 12. New arrests of persons
accused of having taken part in the insurrection
had been made at Fuenta-Serna and Alhama, and
in consequence the number of individuals in the
prison of Loja, who were awaiting trial, was
not fewer than 413. The Clamor Publico,
owing to its condemnation to 60,000 reals fine, had
ceased to appear. The fire in the Northern Railway
station, which has been mentioned by telegraph,
was caused by a locomotive of which the fire had
not been completely extinguished, having been
placed in a wooden shed. The flames, which were
fanned by a high wind, reached other sheds, in wood,
and all these structures were destroyed, together
with their contents, consisting of materials and car-
riages. The royal train which, as stated, was in
one of the buildings, was reduced to ashes. It was
composed of 12 splendid vehicles. The total
amount of damage done is estimated at 800,000
reals (the real is about 25c.)

At Valparaiso business remained without im-
provement. There was little demand for exports.
Money was difficalt to procure, and no discounts
were made except on the very best paper. The
elections were likely to pass off without excitement,
and it was supposed that Perez would be elected
without opposition.
The Federal forces and Mosquera's army had had
an engagement near Bogota, in which both sides
lost heavily. The Government forces were com-
pletely routed, and fled back to Bogota. The field
was covered with dead bodies, and the Cuartel was
full of prisoners. It was reported that Mosquera
had marched upon and occupied the city.
The news from Bolivia is unimportant.

At Demerara business was exceedingly dull, the
import of provisions being barely sufficient to meet
the demand. Tonnage ample. Four ships had
arrived from India with u;:wards of 1,200 immi-
grants. The exports of colonial produce exhibited
a considerable increase for the past six months.
The weather at Barbadoes had improved, but
planters were engaged in completing the operations
connected with the crop. The markets continued
very unsettled. American imports were declining
in price.

There is no news of importance from Jamaica.

hensions were entertained, had reached Port Royal,

mained very unsettled, and, except for immediate
consumption, there was no demand. Much rain
had fallen, and the crops were likely to suffer there-
from. Coffee was quoted 455. ; rum, 2s. 6d. for
proof 18 in bond. Sugars ranged from 13s. to 178.
