The RA:comma opened the business of the Ses sions, by addressing the Grand Jury, on the your idetion of the new Gaol and Town Hall. lie con gratulated them, and the town at.large, on this de sirable object being attained : the business that nay come before the Court will be got through with more convenience and ficility, and, what is more important, the confinement of the prisoners will be suitable to the nature of their crimes : the debtor will out now be, put into the same apart mer.t as the prisoner who. has committed a mis demeanour; nor prisoners of this class, with the often more depraved part of' mankind, called felons. —And, however individuals may feel on contribut ing to pay the expense of the building, he was sure, on examining the arrangements, and what .usay be called she comforts of the prison, they would feel the most satisfactory pleasure. He adverted to the abilities and exertions of Mr. Goldson, under whose more inainechate direction the gaol was built ; uud to the share which Sir John Carter took in it; whom, he said, we all la mented was nut present to witness its entnpletiou.

It may be depended en as a fact, that thirteen sail from Brazil, bringing live stock to the British West India Islands, have arrived. The curreut, with all the sails down, brings them there in four or five days; and the wind, with all the sails up, carries them hack. From North America the pas. page is from 25 to 30 days, and the original price much higher. The fart is, that on the Spanish Main, beef and mutton can be got at one penny per pound, which, in the United States, would cost dd. The carriage also is less, and much inure prompt. A letter from an Officer at Falmouth, says-- We shall sail probably as soon as the wind is fair. Corunna is reported to be the place of ren dezvous.

The Royal Wageran Train are also to b,• completed with mules on their arrival. The transports are provisioned fur • two months, from which some conjecture we are going into the Ale diterranean, but from what has transpired through the Staff, it is to enable these ships, after our debar kation, to proceed to Portiigal to receive the t roims there, and convey them to any other point v. h' re they may be wanted."
