The smuggling of opium, on large scale, by Anne
ricans is mentioned, to which the British PlenipO-
Tertiary had endeavored, unsuccessfully, TO put
stop. 1t is added that British goods are scarce in
China. This announcement will give an impetus
to the markets, and considerable export trade to
that pst of the world WILL in all probability be the
result. The British merchants have acted with
very commendable caution, as regards the trans.
mission of merchandise to China. They were anx-

In the mean time there is little doubt that Christina
will again enter Spain, taking with her, all pro-
babilily, Bourbon son-in-law. Of course, all
chance of q commercial treaty with England is at
an end, seeing that the parties who have been
most virulent against Espartero are the persons
who imagine they would suffer most by such a
measure-the cotton manufacturers of Catalonia
and their partisans Spain, with its bankrupt
treasury, it's disorganized, idle, and insoent army
flushed with success, though not with victory
with the whole frame work of 500 ct out of joint,
and all the conflicting elements OF discord at
work-presents no solitary feature on which the
eye OF the patriot or the phanthropst can rest with
pleasure.
