Gazette asserts that the Minister Of the
Interior had received a communica-
ton from the Political Chief OF Gui.
pnzcoa, announcing that bottle had
been found floating in the water near
Motrico, Spain, containinga paper, Of
the contents Of which the following
words only could be deciphered:
"Ship President. We arc blocked
up in the ice, and we can't live much
time y Kind friends will acquaint
- We are dying OF hunger

The bottle was found by some fish,
ermcn, and handed to the Alcalde of
Motrico, few leagues from St Sebas-
,ian. A copy of the paper has been
communicated to the British Minister.
The London Literary Gazette, in al
luding to this account, says:
"The probability is that the unfor-
tunate steamer went down nearly
where last ecen, and, owing to the
weight Of her machinery is floating
now, unbroken and without fragments

seas watts her hulk TO and fro. At
some future time, when the perishing
wood is separated from the heavy iron,
and the latter sinks, the last vestiges of
the President may be met with on the
Atlantic wave. This opinion is much
strengthened by the following notice
from the Pacific ocean:
On the 30th of December, part
Of the hulk Of the Iambro, or Cleo
