The war OF spain with MOROCCO.

ID The depredations of Moorish pirates upon
Spanish commerce, and the attack upon the
Spanish fortress Of Ceuta, and the coast of
Morocco, furnish the aggrievance for which
Spain is about to make war upon Morocco.
'r Offensive operation against Morocco were
appointed to- commence on the 7th or 9th Of
November, Tangiers, Tetuan and Lawaske
having been previously declared in state Of
blockade by the Spanish Government. All
the steam packets that ply between Marseilles,
France, had the Spanish ports had been char
tered to convey the Spanish forces to Moroc-
co. The war excites great enthusiasm in
Spain, and deserters from the army were re-
turning and beginning to be employed now that
there is chance for actual fighting. ,.5s7.
/ The reason given by France for sustaining
Spain in this attack, is that her own commerce
has suffered since 1856 q But another and
more important reason is attributed to Napo-
leon, and that is the overthrow of the power
of England in the Mediterranean by expeling
her from Gibraltar, Malta, and the Ionian Is.
lands. 9Supposing Napoleon to entertain thess
designs, we have an explanation of the i'm
mense naval preparations he is now making
which are not requisite in contest with any
of the continental powers. t.p5gung DO a.,

dead, returned in excellent health to this coun-

nothing from him for three years, supposed
him to be dead, caused letters of administra.

divided his estate, which was of considerable
value. All the proceedings are void, of course,
