PRESENTS TO THE QUEEN FROM THE QUEEN OF SPAIN
—Four beautiful Spanish entim horses arrived at Windsor on
Wednesday morning as presents from Isabella 11. of Spain
to her Majesty. These horses reached this country shortly
after her Majesty had left for Scotland. They were taken
by the Spanish grooms to the new riding-house, where they
were seen by her Majesty and Prince Albert. The horses
were afterwards ridden by the royal eouerries, and subse-
quently by Mr. Myers, Prince Albert's riding-master, by
whcml th), were put through their various paces.

the low price of the latter. The silks were general'
plied by the Leipsic and Hamburg fairs ; few were of French
origin, according to the same document. The commercial
relation, between Tabriz and Trebisond, have of late years
assumed a great extension. Caravans are constantly plying
between those two cities ; and the products of Persia, and
Asia Minor, proceeding from Tabriz, and embarked at Tre-
bisond, amounted in 1841 to 25,000,000 piasters, exclusive of
a large quantity of specie in Dutch ducats and silver rubles,
of which no estimation could be given. The value of Euro-
pean goods landed for the Tabriz market at Trebisond, in
1841, was estimated at from 85,000,000 to 90,000,000 piasters.
During the first six months of that year, there entered this
harbour 18 Russian vessels, 8 English, 3 Sardinian, 11 Greek,
and 61 Turkish ; but most of the latter had arrived in ballast,
and sailed with cargoes. The Trieste steamers executed, in
the same interval, 10 or 12 journeys thither, bringing manu-
factured goods, colonial articles, steel tke , to an amount of
7,120,000 francs ; and returning with al ik wax, skins,
camels-hair, saffron, shawls, &C., for 2,073,006 franca.
