, PROGRESS MANUFACTURES IN SPAIN.-lt is a
singular circumstance that consumption OF linen IN
, Spain still continues to be much greater than In
England, France and Belgium put together, and that
notwithstanding the consumption is SO great, there
were, until lately, only two manufactures in Spain,
: where coarse kind OF linen cloth was made. An
entesprislng lady, Madame Laurens by name, ma
: tive Of Spaln but educated in manufacturing
in France, determined on attempting to improve the
manufacture OF linen, and accordingly established
some time ago a linen factory at Avlles, small
i seaport on the northern coast. There, notwith-
standing the very discouraging difficulties she en-
countered she succeeded and at the exhibition Of
national industry, held last summer at Madrid, pre-
sented several specimens Of linen of Spanish manu-
facure, for which tie first prizes were awarded to
her. The Spanish government, desirous OF encour-
aging her in her Efforts have given to herself and
heirs in perpetuity, building 0ormerly monaste

was the daily increasing pecuniary embarrassment
OF the government, TO which the recent conversion
operated in portion OF the foreign debt has mainly

taists OF this city are involved in that transaction,

London market, and the SPECTATORS on this side
are forced to sell, II order to have the means Of
paying for those which they bought ard left in
pledge, the loss Is, OF course, the difference between
the two prices, anc this several millions of
pounds can be no uihe. Il Is reported tn4t The Mi

need to make up the terrible failure OF our potatoe
crop.
