" The • returns of the importations into Kingston during the last five ye - ars relieves us from the necessity of entering into lengthy, and, perhaps, tiresome details. The tables speak tor themselves, and are sufficient)* suggestive to enable our. readers to draw their own conclusions respecting the results cf last year's businesr, compared with those of 1847 to 1849. We cannot in , elude 1850, inasmuch as the transactions of that year were, in their 'nest important features, very similar to those of - 1851: ' The effects of the enormous reduction of our Population, occasioned by the ou4trealk of cholera in 1850; and of th e l arge d i rect importations into the prin cipal ontpo r t s , were no less stringentl y felt in the boa. de a transacted in Kingston during the past, year than they were iu 1850. B Day GooD S B USINESS OF 1851. ' "Till; M branch of our island trade was, we regret to say, .conducted under unfavourable auspices, and was proportionately unretnunerative. The prevalence of epi demic cholera, in one part or the other of the island during the whole twelvemonth, seriously affected the de mand for goods from the provinces, while in Kingston the large withdrawal of what is called the Californian trade, occasioned by the irregularity with which the American steamers visited our port during the past year, confined the city trade alm ost entirely to local dealers, whose wants were principally supplied from the cheapest and most inferior descriptions of geode. We believe we may safely assert that most, if not • all, or-the large retail warehouses found the profits of their business con siderably reduced in 1851 by these and other concurrent _circumstances. "Agricultural affairs afford more room for °eigma 'elicit,. In the year terminating on the 10th o f October ilia _the, qtr,utity o f produce shipped fronathecaoildoini was in almoseeveey ineeence, but eapeCially - is regarded sugar, rum , co ff ee , gi4ter. and pimento, very much in eicetir'Kif the prericar exports. We believe that, taking' all circtstan •to consideration , the'enof mous decre a s e :the • of available labour in the agrieerlct~ial ' district , d the other-drawbacks with which too plea, tee ha -;•• ead 'to contend % this result was ' l eered); anticipate .

Whether the returns will be remunerative or the con trary is a matter on which it would be unsafe -and pre mature to hzard a conjecture; the present low rates of 'colonial produce in the home markets might bear us but in 'predicting an unfavourable result, but we would rather look. to the brighter side of things, and indulge in the hope of speedy reaction and steady improvement of prices." GENERAL REMARKS, Business generally is inactive, as it usually is imme diately after. the Christmas holidays. The market is now fairly supplied with pickled and dry fish. Bread stuffs continue in ample supply. Hour —Holders still refuse to sell at 265., and the trade decline to operate largely at a higher rate. _Rice —East India co nt i nues i n limited supply, and prices are well supported.

Batter—Operations in Irish have bven effected at Hid. to 12d. per lb ' but the market i s not b y any means firm; and dealers are offrriug 11d, which will probably be acceptt-d.

Candles—The stock has.diminishrd to a large extent, and holders are firm at 6id., which rate some parcels of Cook's have changed hands. . • Soap—The sales have been of no importance whatever. Pork—Mess, full weight, is moved at 94e.; the sales include 90 barrels Philadelphia inspected. We have not heard anything or prime. Beef—We quote Halstead's at 44a, and Smith's at 457. to 565. per half barrel. Tongues—Ox' are abundant end Unsaleable. Pigs' are scarce and wanted. The light stcck precludes any other than the merest retail transactions. Hams generally are inactive. Lancashire at 10d., Irish at sd. to 6d., and American at sd. to 7d. per lb. Oil—Cod has changed hands at 2s. 9d. and lard at 4s. per gallon. - - Salt—No operations have transpired. Tobacco—We quote cavendisb at 93. per lb. and leaf at 48s. to 525. per 1001bs.

FOX MA ULE AT PERTH. Mr. Fox Maule, who has been appoiteed to the office of President of the India Board, addressed the electors of Perth in the City Hell there, on Thursday, asking a renewal of the political connection that bad so long ex isted between them. On the same day Mr. Charles Gilpin arrived in Perth to oppose Mr. Maule, and he also shortly addressed the electors. The nomination is to take place on Monday, but it is not generally thought in Perth that Mr. Gilpin will go the poll, as his chance of success is very remote. It will be seen from what follows, that Mr. Manic touched on a number of im portant topics. Lard ProvoseDewau, who occupied the chair, intro duced Mr. Menlo to the meeting. Mr.'MILE said the present was the fourth time he had appear. d before them as a canhidato for that high honour. Twice they had returned him without a con tes', and once they had returned him triumphantly after a contest. They had had experience of him is various capacities —as acting rgaiust the Government of the day, as an independent Member of Parliament acting with the Government, and as a Member of her Majesty's Cabinet—and during all that time he was proud that he had been able to maintain the confidence of the electors, and to carry out the liberal principles with which he started, without ever having heard the least whisper of dissatisfaction from the constituency. It had been often stated and asserted, during the recess, and deMt upon with great perseverance by that portion of the press opposed to the present Cabinet, that nothing existed but a weak Government, unable to guide and conduct the destinies of this great nation. He did not stand there to praise the Government; but this ho would say, that the present Government had been in power long enough not to be unwilling now to retire, and they remained in office more for the sake of the country, and of the Cr own, than from any wish to cling to power. If those persons Who were always complaining of the Go vernment as weak, and blaming them for their tena cietisness of taw, would look beekeiver &year or two, they would find that when Lord John Russell lost, not the cenfid nee of his political opponents—for that he never seught to obtain—but what be supposed to be the Confidence of bis political friends, he immediately ten dered his resignation to her Majesty. That resignation was not accepted. If it were shown to him that there was a stronger Government and a better Government ready to assume the reins of power, he would at once give place to it. But so long as no stronger Govern. ment was pointed out to them, so long as no other party was prepared to form a government, her Ma jesty's present advisers would continue where they were; they would go on in what they conceived to be the path of duty, laying before Parliament such measures us they believed to be conducive to the good of the coun try, and submitting without regret to the judgment of Parliament concerning them. With regard to his own past conduct, he appealed to them, that he had pursued it straightforward and consistent career. On various oc caeions he had felt it his duty to oppose what he con sidered extreme views on the question of Reform. He was reproached with having, on several occasions, op posed motions in the House of Commons by Mr. Hume. 'He admitted that he had done so, and he was ready to give his reasons for so doing. With regard to the people's charter, he frankly avowed that he was no Chartist, and no man need look for him to support the Charter. He confessed that several motions had been made by Mr. Hume, the purport of which he (Mr. Mauls') could not pretend to understand. Mr. Hume had made motions for household suffrage. He (Mr. Mauls_) did not understand what Mr. Hume's household suffrage meant. If it meant that the owners of houses should have a vote, its effect would be to restrict the present suffrage; aid if it rnsant that every occupant of a hou,e should have a vote, then that would be equiva lent to universal suffrage, and this he (Mr. Maule) could not support. Another point brought forward by Mr. Hume was what was called " electoral districts." Neither could he vote for this. It was a measure which would have the effect of disfranchising Perth, of merging it in a large sur rounding rural district, and, instead of sending a Mem ber to Parliament as at present, it would, under the proposed arrangement, have the privilege of returning only the fractional part of a member. He had resisted this propcaal, and would resist ir, for the sake of the in tegrity of the electoral privileges of Perth; and he would warn ail small burghs to beware of being swamped in the proposed electoral districts. Under the present arrangement many interests—he might even say all in terests—were represented in Parliament; but by the pro posed scheme of electoral districts there would be only two interests—that of theaown and that of the land— they would be brought into direct and dangerous anta gonism with each other, and as that was what he never hoped to see, he would resist a measure which he thought was calculated to bring it about. Another question was a favourite with the House and with the country, and on it he wished to disburden his mind. That was the ballot. When he wan first returned for this county, and'afterwards when be was returned for the city, he was opposed to the ballot. After that on one occasion he voted for it in the House of Commons. A practice prevailed in some places, and particularly in some counties in the south of Scotland, of manufacturing faggot voters; and after careful investigation of the call, he came to the conclusion that the ballot was the only effectual cure for it, and under that impression he voted for it. But though sworn to sectesy as to the pro posed measures of the Government, he was at liberty to s ay this much in reference to the forthcoming Refiwns 13M—that it would effectually provide against the manu facture of those fictitious votes. That being the case, the only reason that ever appeared to him to justify the ballot would be done away with. If they had universal suffrage, the ballot might follow as a matter of course; but so long as there were two classes—so long as there was the distinction of electors and non-electors—he had no right—no person had any right —to withhold from the non-elector the knowledge of' how the elector gave his vote. If they had the ballot the elector might talk bravely and valiantly to his neighbour the non elector of how he meant to vote, and might then go and ceposit his vote secretly in the electoral urn in quite a different wa y. But farther, the ballot never served the purpose for which it was intended. In the United States they bad the ballot in name, but not in essence, for every one knew how his neighbour voted. And if they crossed the Channel, did they find no warning,there? They had the ballot in France; but had it given them liberty—had it given liberty to the press or to the people? It had done no such thing. They had the ballot; but they had also a Government which had no respect for property, .no respect for the liberty of the people, no respect for the liberty of the press; they had the ballot, hut the press was gagged in such a way as, if he saw she like here, he should blush for his native country. These were practical arguments against the ballot, and he had now made a cleats breast on the sub- J e d. Now, he wished that the seal of secrecy were not upon his lips, otherwise they might have a peep into fu turity. He was bound by his oath not to divulge the secrets of the Cabinet; but he had the satisfaction to be able to say, that on Monday next the new plan of Re fint would be developed by Lord John Russell in the Mime of Commons. If he could not say more on that point, he be begged to assure them it was out of respect for his oath, and from no disrespect to them. A charge had been brought against him on another point—he had been charged with extravagance as regarded the public expenditure. This was a hard charge to bring against the present Government, for they had made greater reductions in.public salaries, and had cut off more pub lic and useless offices, than any other Government had ever done. This was the course they had pur sued, and this course they still intended to pursue The policy, he would not say of the Government, but of the Parliament, had been to reduce taxes. From finance he would pass to Church matters. Of all other subjects, he knew of none that was pressing more heavily on men's minds, and • occasioning more alarm through the length and breadth of England, than the subject 'of the Church. He would not enter on any matters of sectarian difference, but the time was come when every person in his circumstances was called upon to state distinctly on what principles his Church pixy was based. Ha had always given them to know that his principles were thoroughly Protestant, and that he held that every man ought to be at liberty to perform his religious duties according to the dictates of his own conscience, and to incur no civil disabilities for so doing But some would go further than this; for the sake of pa u c r e o t ehse.Now, yware distinct th i s wa s an th d e s o pe n e ly ifi s c u p bj le e d c g t ; prepared to extend, not only civil equality, h but on a nwdh he which h h he d e also to give endowments to all sects and c had ever given a measure; still to say that he could not support any proposal for t t e h m e p e o n r d a orwympeaee might be bought by such a endowment of the Catholic clergy of Ireland.

It was a stand ing occasion of bitter religious disputes in Parliament as often as it was brought forward. Year after year he had voted for this grant. BUt in 1845 Sir R. Peel took the grant out of the hands of Parliament altogether, and placed it as a charge on the Consolidated Fund. He ( Maul()) did not think that this was the proper course, and he voted against Sir R. Peel's Bill in every stage. Tee Bill was carried, however, by large majorities. e ls]; t p as e a i t ny w ono ire tim thing ik to t h opposejse If, measure,therei.o therefore u an y thought ril i s w h a o s u l w d r b e n e p g, r a o ; d o s q e d u t o e r a a n n o y t h m e r o. ,o thing b suddenly h t t o f undo r i d t ro f s o h r ou th ld e o re p p p e o a se l it of . lthiee k itel e a w yn t o h ‘ o a t t h n Er o id h ow ea m rd ent hi ß m i ; ll, b h u e t ritking th e goo d op i nion of many in saying so h e was he relied on t h e i r twenty: years' experience of his I'ro testant principles to sustain biva in that difficulty.maHye.

He could in many things trust the ignorant man; but the mind that was filled with mere secular knowledge was more dangerous to society than the grossest igno rance that could be f ound in the worst quarters of our large cities. On thi s subject of education they really did not know how t o get on in England. He despaired as yet of Govern ment b eing able to do anything; the . time was not yet come for Government to take up . the education cpestion in E ng l and. They cou ld on l y encourage the (fforts of the various religious parties who were labouring voluntarily in that field. But in any such encouragement it was the duty of Govern to see that secular education be embued with religi ous instruction. He added, that although they might expect to be abused by all parties, the Government had almost made up their minds to introduce a measure of national education for Scotland in the course of this session. Mr. Maule passed from those questions of peace to rumours of war. His own Opinion was, that that pa ragraph in the Queen's Speech, in which she usually speaks of being on terms of amity with her neighbour!, was never more true than on the present occasion. He t t o h e dictatea fa affairs of e i th er believed there was not the slightest intention on the part of any nation to enter into u war with this country.

Kelly, of her Majesty's Royal Marines, when borne on the books of her Majesty's ship London, in commission, did, on the 30th of January, on board the said ship, disobey the orders of Lieutenant H. Lloyd, senior Lieutenant of the said ship, by not coming on deck when ordered to do so by, or by the direction of the said Lieutenant H. Lloyd. "2. For that the said Lieutenant William Kelly, of her Majesty's Royal Marine forces, when borne en the book of her nijesty's ship London, in commission, did, on the 30th of January, on board the said ship, interrupt the said Lieutenant H. Lloyd, while he, the said Lieu tenant 11. avd, was giving orders to him, the said Lieutenant William Kelly. " The Court having heard the charges against the prisoner, having duly weighed and considered the same and the evidence brought torward in support thereof, as also that on the part of the prisoner, are of opinion that the first charge is fully proved, and that the second charge is not proved. Taking, however, all the circum stances of the case into consideration, they do adjudge Lieutenant William Kelly to be severely reprimanded, and admonished to be more cautious in future; and he is hereby reprimanded and admonished accordingly." The court then broke up. • APPOINTMENTS. WOOLWICII, FEB. 7.—Rear- Admiral J. W. D. Dun das, C. 8., to be Commander-in-Chief of the Mediter ranean station, in the room of Admiral Sir William Parker, Bart., G.C.8., in the command of the ships and war steamers on that station since February, 27, 1845; Rear-Admiral Dundas hoisted his flag as Rear• A dmiral of the Red to-day en board the Britannia, 120, at Spithead. Several officers have boon named as Naval Lord at the Admiralty, to fill the vacancies occasioned by the appointment of Rear-A.droirat Dundas to be Com mander-in-Chief of the Mediterranean station, but it is most probable the following arrangemedts will take place:—Rear-Admiral F. F. Berkeley, C. 8., first Naval Lord, vice Dundas; Rear-Admiral Houston Stewart, C. 8., second Naval Lord, vice Berkeley; Rear-Admiral Sir James Stirling, Knight, third Naval Lord, vice Stewart; and Captain Milne, fourth Naval Lord, for the performance of his present duties. We named R9ar . _ . Admiral (then Captain) Sir James Stirling upwards of six months ago as the new Naval Lord when a vacancy occurred, by the appointment of Rear-Admiral Dundas to a seagoing command. Captain Richard Devonshire (1838), to receive the out-pension of Greenwich Hospital, rhea Rena ick. Lieutenant Francis Rooke (1846), to study steam at the Royal Naval College. Assistant-Surgeon Samuel (1846), to the Vesuvius steam-sloop at Devonport. Boatswain Thomas Watson, to the Vesuvius. PROMOTIONS. Lieutenants—James Dirom (1841), First Lieutenant of the Albion, on the Mediterranean station, and Fro. derick P.

Assistant-Surgeon —Wm. T. Doraville, M.D. (1842), serving at Greenwich Hospital, to the rank of surgeon. An• order was received at Woolwich to-day not to enter any more boys for the royal navy, the number al ready entered being above the estimates. Captain John Moore (1848), is named as likely to have the command of the Highflyer steam-sloop, now ready for commission at this port. Captain Sir Edward Belcher, Knight (1841), Captain Henry Kellett, C.B. (1842), and Commander Df•Clin tock (1851), are to commission vessels for the ap proaching Arctic expedition, and the number of officers and petty officers and seamen who have volunteered for this service far exceeds the applications on any former occasion. The Intrepid screw steam•vessel, one of the vessels fitting for the Arctic expedition, is in the outer basin, and ready for commission, having been completed in tEe engineer department. The Pioneer is in one of the east docks in a forward state, and both are expected to be commissioned in the course of next week. A numb( r of petty officers and men have been waiting at this port for several weeks past, in the hope of being em ployed in either of the vessels of the next Arctic ex pedition. • - The Agamemnon, 90, building at this dockyard for a screw-propellor, is now nearly ready for launching, and the launch of this fine vessel will take place about ►he end of next mouth. The blacksmiths are working over hours at present to expedite the ironwork, and a con siderable number of shipwrights are at work upon her. The beams of her poop have been nearly all put uy, and the laying of the flooring of the upper deck commenced. The Royal Albert, 120, has had three-lourthe of the beamsof the poop-deck put up, and is advancing steadily towards being ready for launching. When the Agamemnon is launched a number of the shipwrights will be placed on the Royal Albert, and it is expected she will be ready for launching in July next, MARKETS.

At this point opinions are in fluenced by their own receipts, now 142,000 bales in excess of last season, and parties writing 2,700,000 or over, are confirmed, as they believe, in this view by corn paeison of receipts in the aggregate with those of Jan., 1849. when the crop proved to be 2,728 000 bales.

THE WEST INDIA AND MEXICAN MAILS. SOU fIiA.MPTON, SUNDAY NIGHT. The Royal Mail Company's steam-ship Trent, Captain Clark, with the West India acd Mexican mails in charge of Lieut. Whiffle, R.N., Admiralty agent, arrived this afternoon at four o'clock. During the homeward voyage of the Trent she ex perienced fine weather for the first two or three days after leaving St. Thomas's, after which she experienced strong head winds. Sib, was detained at Si. Thomas's until the 22d of January, in cJnscquence of the non arrivll of the Great Western from tue Gulf of Mexico, where that ship experienced strong northers. ller dates of sailing were. :—.Vera Cruz, Jan. 7 ; Tam pico; 9 th; Barbadoes, 16th; Grey Town, 7th; Mar- GuadalOupe, a n d D om i n i ca , 17 t h ; Antigua, 18 h; Jamaica, 17th; Montsentr, 18th; Demerara. 14th ; : an Juan, Porto Rico, 21st; Chagres, 9th; Carthagena, 1I tt ; St. Thames, 22d.

The Legislature, after a short adjournment over the Christmas holidays, had again met for the digpatch of business, and it was expected that the labours of the Senators would shortly be terminated and the session brought to a close. Among the most important mea sures which have received the sanction of the Legisla ture is a Bill regulating the proceedings of juries, em powering the judge to direct jurors to serve by ballot, and making good the decision of nine jurors in civil cases, where formerly twelve were required. t In general, there is no intelligence of particular im portance. The Christmas holidays had passed over in comparative quietness, and, as usual at that time of the i year, things were inactive. The agricultural interest was in rather se favourable condition, and was a subject on which planters could congratulate themselves. The return of exports to the 16th of October, 1850, showed that the quantity of pro duce shipped from the colony was greatly in excess of the previous year's exports. When the great mortality caused by the prevalence of cholera, and the consequent decrease in available agricultural labour, es well as many other difficulties with which the planters have had to contend, are considered, the result must be pro nonnced to bo highly favourable. If a reaction should take place in the home markets for colonial produce, the effect would be most beneficial to the planting in terest in Jamaica. " With regard to the trade with the Spanish M a i n and other foreign powors," says De Cordova's paper, "we have been unable to gather any information that might at all alleviate its distressing and cheerless cha racter.

It wa 3 con fidently e xpected that the time of Sir Chsrles% adminis tration was neerly expired, and that Lord Harris would succeed hire —an event which will be hailed by the in habi,ants generally with great ley. The cholera was still in the island, but its ravtig,•e were confined to the interior di.triets. In some Oilers; the smallpox was also prevalent. bat the mortality alto gether was net very great. In consequence of a vt: seal arriving in the harbour of Kingston with a ezee of cho •lera on board, the health officer not being empowered by law to board coasters, au order of his Excellency the Governor in Council had been issued, empowering and directing the health officer to place ell vessel:, whiihi r coasters or otherwise, coming from any , place where the cholera cr other epidemic was prevalent, in quarantine for a certain number of days. The weather was very favourable for the planters taking ofF crop, and excepting !how places where cholera ! and s mallp ix prevail, the, islaild was very healthy. 1 w,,h reterene to the trade of the island, De Cor- 1 (lords Intelligenctr gives the following review for the pas t )ear:-- " THE PROVISION BUSINESS of 1851.

By the arrival in the Mersey of the Ro3 al Mail steam ship Asia, Judkins commander, we have received ad vices from New York to the 28th uli. She has forty one passengers, and 102,3301. in specie on freight. The Asia sailed from New York at noon on the 28th ult., the harbour at the time being full of ice. At 7.53 P.M., on the 6di inst.. she made Cape Clear; at 12.45 P.M. to-day, passed Holyhead, and saluted the Rock Lighthouse at ten o'clock this evening, having made the run in ten days two hours and fifteen minutes mean steaming time., She experienced stormy north-west, west, and south-west winds during her ruu, and on four occasions steamed upwards of 300 miles in the twenty four hours—namely, on the 31st ult., 318 miles; on the 3d inst., 308 miles; on the 4th, 316 miles; and on the sth, 308 miles.

The New York Herald has the following extraordinary statement;— " We have just received from Charleston, South Caro lina, a variety of papers and documents, containing copies of a very curious diplomatic correspondence which has taken place beetween Mr. Mathews, the British Consul in Charleston, and the State authorities of South Caro lina. We have heretofore alluded to this, but now notice it to call the attention of the general Government to its character, its intentions, and the meaning which may be put upon it in Europe. Mr. Mathews, in this corre spondence, assumes diplomatic functions independently of the British Minister at Wa'hington, and without re cognizing the general Government of the Union. It is, in fact, a British recognition of the independence of South Carolina, and is practical secession of the highest order. South Carolina, from this date, may be considered as having taken the first stop out side the Union—it has even got ahead of the Mormons; they only drove back their judges, without saying they would refuse another batch with more morality and less law—but South Carolina has opened diplomatic commu nications with British functionaries, and set aside en tirely the authority of the general Government. We call the attention of our amiable but imbecile President, and our magnificent but torpid Secretary of State, to the position of South Carolina in this Union, and the assumption of Mr. - Consul Mathews under the authority of Lord Palmerston. If there is a spark of national feel ing in .the Cabinet or in the White-house, a messenger should be sent to South Carolina, recalling the Consul a exequatur, and demanding an explanation from this new British Minister."
