The imports into Spain consist at the present time chiefly of ti'opical 

 products and northern manufactures. Breadstuffs, chiefly wheat and 

 maize, are only imported in years of scarcity. The following are the 

 imports of breadstuffs in the year 1872 and 1873, respectively : 



Mining. 



The revival of mining in Spain dates from the decree of Ferdinand 

 VII., of July 4, 1825. (Br. 0. R., 1868-5, 299.) That this judgment

 by Macgregor. Those for late years are from the Br. Con. Rep., 1867-8, 

 560, the U. S. Monthly Stat., Mar., 1870, and U. S. Com. Rel., 1873, 964.
