SPAIN.

According to advices from. Jaca of the 17th, another Carlist
column, consisting df eight battalions and 200 cavalry, had
reached, on the 15th, the village of Nebasquez, on the confines
of Navarre, from which it might proceed either to Upper Arra-
gun or to HuesCa and Barbastro. 9,000 men of the Queen's
troops were, however, watching its movements.
Letters from aiOnne of the 20th instant state, that the ob-
ject of Count. Negri's retrograde march is to post himself in
the Sierra de Cameros, and thence descend to the right bank of
the Ebro, in order to protect the passage of an expedition of 20
battalions, which Don Carlos contemplates sending to the inte-
rior, if he can prevail on the Navarrese and the Basques to
follow hint-beyond that river. All the Carlist troops which had
approiched the French frontiers had been ordered to the plain
on Vittoria, where it was thought that Dun Carlos intended to
place hiinself at their bead, and force a passage across the In"_
cartacioues.
•Advices from Estella of the Isth mention that the Carlis_
expedition into Upper Arragon had been recalled for the pur
tmse 01 reinforcing the army which Dun .Carlos intended to
lead ip person against Madrid.

Accounts from Catalonia, received via Bayonne, announce
that Baron de Meer and Brigadier Ayerba had been beaten by
the Carlist cominander-in-chiet, Seragu, in the vicinity of Suria.
Brigadier Carbo, after tuur days' fighting with Burio and
Zorilla, had been obliged ti treat before their 'superior force,
and to retire into Puicerringing with bin] three hundred
wounded, whom he lodged in the church. Nothing could exceed
the fury displayed by both parties in those various encounters.
The Carlist chief Burjo had been (wounded. in the leg, and
Carbo's son was killed by his father's side.

A dispatch, published by the Madrid Gazette of the 15th, states
that Brigadier Abecia had defeated Cabauero near Tierzo.

THE UNITED STATES.

NEW YORK, APRIL 2.—MONEY AND EXCHANGES.—There is
no change in the condition of money. It is scarce, yet there is
on difficulty in realising it on undoubted business paper, but
of this there is but little. Money stocks droop in price, and
specie rather goes up. Bills for the packets of April 1 were
very heavy. Sterling bills opened at 51 to 6, but declined to
5 pin. for the' best; on France the closing sales of prime bills
were at sf. 472 c. per dollar. Domestic exchanges are no worse'
than they were a week ago. On the east there is vet!, little
variation from par. The following were the rates on southern
places :—Philadelphia, 32_1- to -1 dis.; Baltimore, 3,1 to 4; Charles-
ton, 31 ; Milledgeville, 81; Augusta, 71; Mobile, 18 discount'
for certificates of deposit, and 20 for bank Dotes; New Orleans,
; Natchez certificates of deposit sold at 30 tits; Cincinnati.
6 to 7; Kentucky bank bills, 81; Certificates, 71.; Tennessee,
20 to 25 wanted.

MONEY MARKET, &e. April 2.—The stock market continues
to recede, and the business transacted is every day becoming
more limited. -hales on Saturday of United States Bank at 114
to 1142; Delaware and Hudson Canal Company, 611; Phcenix
Bank, 94; and Boston and Providence Railroad Company,9s.
Utica Railroad Company has receded to 110. Specie has ad-
vanced a little, and is held at 24 to 21 per cent. premium.
Treasury notes at zto per cent. premium.
We learn that in addition to the bills of the Windsor Bank,
those of the Newbury Bank, Wells River, Vermont, will not
be dicounted on any terms,by the brokers in this ciy.
We are'unable to find in the files of London papers which
have as yet reached ns by the Europe, quotations of a later date
for American Stocks than the 24th of February, when Louisiana
Five per Cents were quoted at 96; New York Five per Cents.
(1815), 91; Pensvlvauia Five per Cents. (1858), 93. In Mis-
sissippi, and New York, and Ohio Six per Cents. nothing has
been done.

Our commercial advices from New Orleans for the week
ending the 24th ult. have been received, which we are happy to
observe report some improvement in business, though sales
were still limited. The arrangement entered into by the banks
butt tended to ease the money market, and the greatest difficulty
in the way of a liberal distribution of bank funds is said to he
the scarcity of good commercial paper. A large business has
been done in cotton, including for the week 20 bales at a small
improvement in prices, and the United States Bank is said
to have purchased 4000 bales at an advance of fully half a cent.
Within a few days some revival of a demand for specie had
occurred; and for American gold and silver 6 to 82 per cent.
premium was paid. About 85,000 dollars had been received on
the 24th from Metamoras, and the advance will probably not be
long sustained. Large sales.of,Treasury notes were also making
at 5 to 6 per cent. premium, and of United States Bank notes
at 3to 3%. The rates of discount on Mobile, Mississippi, &e,
had all advanced, say to 11 to 12 on Mobile, 21 to 22 on Missis-
sippi, and 11 to 12 on Tennessee. Exchange on London had
improved to 84, and on New York was at 31 to 4 per cent. pre-
mium. A great want of shipping continued, and fully 70,000
bales were waiting vessels. The city continued healthy, and
weather fine.
