SEA-SUPERSTITIONS.

[To THE EDITOR OF THE "SPECTATOR:1

Bullen's letter in the Spectator of July 22nd on " Sea-Superstitions " has a slight mistake which it may not be uninteresting to have corrected. Friday is not an unlucky day in Spain for going to sea. El Murtes ni te cases ni te embargues—Do not marry or embark on Tuesday—is the British Consulate, Malaga, July 81st.
