IiTANFORD 6Mrc.ci, AlcorethrYi An enterprising exhibitor desired to send over a church, but the great length of the steeple, which he refused to reduce, because he "wanted a place for the bell, and lots of room for the - tongue to do its waggin'," caused his application to be rejected. Henry B. Humphrey, of Thomaston, and for merly United States Consul at Alexandria, Egypt, has been appointed a State Commissioner to the Paris Exposition, in consequence of the resignation of Thomas S. Lang, of North Vassalboro', who declines on account of his ill-health. The Commission of the Exhibition has just given notice that the building is ready to receive heavy machinery, and exhibitors are requested to send their goods over as soon as posiible. The Exhi bition building is crowded more and more, espe cially on Sunday, and the francs taken at the three entrances now open will add no little to the fund. Great Britain adjoins the United States section of the park. The correspondent of the Pall-Mall Gazette states that "It has one building in the domestic Elizabethan style, in an advanced state of progress. French newspaper writers, for want of some other designation, have taken to call it a home,' which affords them opportunity, for a disquisition on both the charms and ennui of Eng lish domestic life. The official plan takes no note of the structure, and all the information you can get from the workmen engaged on it is that it is a " liaison Anglaise.' It may be half a dozen things, a model farm-house or parsonage, a model parish school-house or vestry-hall, a model railway station or village inn. It has pointed gables, tall cluster ing chimneys, small windows, and a high sloping roof, and is built partly of brick and stone, and partly of timber and plaster. Behind it are some long shed-looking places where Great Britain, we presume, intends, as announced, to exhibit her models of arms and munitions of war produced in her dockyards and arsenals, as well as the engines of war manufactured in private establishments:" ,4 1 / - -- s _ NEWSPAPER 1 / 7 _ ///' (......-;.,4Lic.,t--.-t—to trang p mit a:other signal.

' N The following P pe is oi t o h g e toextf theof tchoerpAsspit s Le j eb dsleal v l i f ! r . btxt t oy the president, Count Walewski : ‘, Gentlemen and dear Colleagues —At the com mencement of your last session, replying to the speech from the throne, you ranked the develop ment of our institutions among the first of the wishes of this assembly, and added, 'The stability of institutions has nothing irreconcilable with the pru dent progress of our liberties. Von have already proved it, sire, and the past answers for the future.' The Emperor has deemed that the moment was come whon the state of minds and the predomi nance of healthy and moderate ideas—the precious result of 15 years of calm and prosperity—allowed him to give a new consecration to the just confi dence which you expressed last year in his tried wisdom and vigilant solicitude. (Very good, very good.) Faithful to the policy announced from the dawnirvr, of his reign, the Emperor advances with a firm step in the path of progress —a path in which those who misapprehend the requirements of their age run an equal risk of going astray as those who let themselves be allured by vain utopias. The firmest minds often hesitate before these grave pro blems ; it is therefore not astonishing that, being all animated by the same devotion to the country and the dynasty, we should at times have differed in opinion upon the nature and opportuneness of the solutions. (Renewed applause.) The initiative of the sovereign has put an end to these diver gences, more apparent than real—(very true) in order to leave nothing subsisting among us but the emulation of labouring all together for the public welfare iu the sphere assigned to our action. (Very good, very good.) The Emperor determined yesterda) . ith the authority which per taims to him the character -of the acts of the 19th January. We shall have to imbue ourselves with the spirit which has inspired them and to secure to the country, as far as rests with us, by the faithful and careful exercise of the functions which are conferred upon us, all the benefits which it can expect from the new reforms. It is in this pru dently liberal and patriotic spirit that you will ex amine the bill of which you have received notice. The substitution of the right of questioning the Government for the debate on the address will have the effect of giving to our discussions a form which will be less solemn, perhaps, but also more prac tical ; one cannot help acknowledging that the de bates which took place on the occasion of the ad dress, being almost always reproduced during the discussion of the budget, became thenceforward de void of any great utility—(applause, and cries of "No, no")—and involved considerable loss of time. The conditions on which this right is authorised form a guarantee that all really important ques tions will be able to be treated with more oppor tuneness and precision. The presence of the Mi nisters in the Chambers when the Emperor may think fit to delegatethem, and the part they will take in our labours, will also contribute to more directly associating the great bodies of the State with the policy of the Government. (Applause.) The se natus consultum of July 14, 1866, modified Arti cles 40 and 41 of the Constitution, and enlarged the right of amendment. Our regulations had con sequently to be also modified. Hitherto amend ments were not discussed in public sittings, and if it was allowable to reproduce the motives during the discussion of the paragraphs they in no case formed the subject of a direct vote, and therefore the reasons determinig the rejection of a paragraph could never be discerned. Henceforth this uncer tainty disappears. The Chamber consulted will be able to take the amendments into consideration and refer them direct to the committee. This faci lity applies without distinction to All amend ments submitted to the committee. Moreover, amendtnents can be brought forward even after the presentation of the report. The exercise of this right will extend up to the time the bill is passed to the order of the day, thus constituting a notable extension of your func tions. (True; very good.) The previous rejection • of the bill ceases to be the only condition on which it can be submitted for fresh consideration, because every bill may now form the subject of a special reference to the committee. (Renewed applause.) Some other changes suggested by experience have also been introduced, having for object : To no longer render obligatory the reading of reports con trary to the wish of the Chamber. To suppress the summary discussion of bills in secret committee, a formality the practice of which has not shown its utility. (Very true.) To allow members of the Corps Legislatif to form part of more than two commit tees, as soon as one of these committees has named a reporter. Lastly, the tribune has been re established, experience having shown the inconvenience of a mode of discussion whereby the members speaking, each from his own place, cannot without difficulty make himself heard by the whole Chamber, and in which he hears badly, and is with difficulty heard himself. (Very true.) The session which has just opened, gentlemen and dear colleagues, inaugurates an im portant era in the history of our institutions. By augmenting our rights the Emperor has augmented our responsibility and our duties. This we shall not forget, and I am happy that the first words heard in this edfiice should have been a tribute to that tu telary mind which daily more closely cements the intimate union between France and the Imperial Government. Elevated in the day of danger by the instinctive and spontaneous acclamations of the the tmheatsourcedeessive phases of i a t n s d g lo s r us io ta us ined miss i i n ea on cll h by ap proval of the nation, the empire prosecutes its task, founding upon the consolidated ground of the fatherland order, greatness, and liberty. (Renewed anplause.): Moreover, gentlemen, France, unshake able in her powerful unity, rendering her Govern ment confidence for confidence, can look upon events with serenity—(very good)—certain that none of her great interests will be imperilled in the hands which direct them ; certain also to be always equal to her self, and be always ready to achieve what her des tinies may demand, and to show that there is no effort ahoy° her patriotism."

PRECAUTIONS AGAINST FENIANS AT WOOLWICH. —ln consequence of information received on Satur day night, the precise nature of which is not known to the general public, the most active and complete measures were taken by the commandant of the garrison and other autho rides, and were continued during yesterday, to meet any attempted Fenian outbreak which it was stronglyrumoured was to take place, and the programme of which was stated to include the seizure of arms and ammunition at the drill establishment of the Blackheath and other local volunteer corps. It is to be presumed that considerable importance was attached to the rumour, as a detachment of Royal Artillery and the Military Train Corps were despatched to Blackheath on Saturday night, and were engaged yesterday in the removal of arms, /ix., belonging to the volunteers to the repository at the Royal Artillery Barracks; and the available troops in garrison, both Royal Artillery and Royal Marine Light Infantry, were kept in reserve in bar racks to be available if required. The same was also the case with regard to the royal arsenal and dockyard police , force. As might be expected, the strabgest rumours were afloat during yesterda', none of which were realised, NOTICE OF REMOVAL. JD .

The lecture theatre of the Royal Institution was crowded on Friday evening to hear a discourse by Mr. C. F. Varley on the Atlantic telegraph. On the table there were displayed coils of the cable successfully laid last year, and of the two cables which had been picked up from a depth of two miles, one of them having lain at the bottom of the sea for two years Mr. Varley did not cuter into the consideration of the mechanical construction of the cable, nor of the plan of laying it down ; neither did he state any of the practical results of the work ing of the Atlantic telegr ; but he confined him self to the scientific part of the subject, and to the explanation of the difficulties which arise in attempt ing to transmit electric signals through great lengths of submerged insubited wire. Ile observed that the transmission of electricity is not governed by the same uniform laws as the transmission of light and radiant heat, but that the rapidity with which it is ransmitted depends on va;iou;conditions. The intensity of the force, or, as it is now frequently called, the " potential" of the electricity, the thick ness, the length, and the condition of the conduct- ing wire have great influence on the rapidity with which signals can be transmitted through a sub marine telegraph cable. As a practical indication of the force that may be brought to bear for that purpose, Mr. Varley had a voltaic battery of 800 cells, the discharge of which perforated holes in tin foil as large as a sixpence, and which might. have produced dangerous, if not fatal, consequences with out great caution. The remarkable effect of the retention of an electric charge by insulated sub marine wires, discovered by Professor Faraday in 1854,was then explained and illustrated. It was ascer- tamed by Professor Faraday that when a great length of wire, covered with gutta percha, is immersed in water and charged with electricity by sending a tele graph signal through it, the wire retains the charge for a short time, so as to prevent a second signal from being transmitted until the wire is discharged. The insulated wire when in water is in the same condi tion as a Leyden jar; the wire being the inner metallic coating, the gutta percha takes the part of the glass, and the water serves as the outer coating of the elongated Leyden jar. It is well known that in discharging an ordinary Leyden jar a portion of the charge is retained, and the same effect takes place to a much greater extent in the insulated sub merged telegraph cable. This has been imitated by employing an apparatus called a condenser, by which the electric current is retarded by passing through water and through a considerable length of very fine wire, the resistance of which to the tranmis sion of electricity is ascertained to be equal to the resistance offered by a given length of telegraph wire. Mr. Varley exhibited a series of condensers of th;s kind, calculated to show the amount of de tention of the electricity at various stations extend ing from England to Australia. The effect was first shown on the Atlantic telegraph cable between Valentia and Newfoundland. When a signal was sent through the resistance coils only, it was almost instantaneously perceived at the representation of the Newfoundland station, in the same manner as if a wire were suspended in air between the two sta tions ; but when the condenser was put in action an interval of some seconds elapsed before the signal was visible at the Newfoundland station. Mr. Var ley then proceeded to describe the contrivances in vented by Sir W. Thompson and himself to facili tate the discharge of the electricity in the cable, and to accelerate the transmission of Eig Dais. They con sisted essentially in partially clear in g the wire the earth, and by c connecting one end of it with by t o y u n a - t certain harg in g intervals. it with c u T r r h e e n t :ffe o e f t n o e f g t a h t l i s v m e od ele e ct o , ri f c c i teracti n the retention of electricity by the telegraph cable was illustrated in a very interesting manner. There was thrown on a screen a series of images i n a perpendicular line, reflected from as many of S i r w. Thomson's minute reflecting galvanometers. E ac h galvanometer teas in' connection with. some supposed station of a telegraphic route between England and Australia : one being Gibraltar, another Malta, a third Sucz, and so on through Calcutta and Rangoon to Australia, being equiva lent to 13,000 miles and 13 stations. When a sig nal was transmitted the image representing Gib raltar darted off quickly to the left-hand side of the screen, Malta moved soon after, and each one followed iu succession more and more slowly until Australia was reached ; but before that occurred the wire at Gibraltar had become nearly discharged and the image returned towards its original posi tion. The effect of transmitting currents of nega tive electricity was then exibited. The image of Gibraltar darted off rapidly towards the right, while the images of the more distant stations continued to move towards the left, and before the time the Australian image moved the line was nearly clear THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 18, 1867. 1 . 1 - UT UAL LOAN FUND ASSOCIATION L (Incorporated by Act of Parliament, 1850), itOSSELL-STREET, COVENT-GARDEN.

The St. George's Challenge Vase. -- -....-- This great Volunteers' priz-, which is second only to the," Queen's" in honour and importance, will be shot for at the next July meeting of the National Rifle Association on Wimbledon-common under different regulations to those which governed the previous competitions. There will be a first and second stage, as in the Queen's Prize; but both, unlike the Queen's Prize, will be shot for with the same weapons, whatever then may be the Volun teer weapon. The weapons, targets, marking, and ammunition are to be the same •as adopted for Volunteer prizes ; but there is no occa sion for any supposition that the use of other than military sights will be sanctioned, and the course which has been followed in previous years of making the competition one for encouraging Volunteers to shoot in the position they had been trained to for service in the field will, doubtless, be fol lowed in this. The first stage will be shot for at 500 yards, with seven shots, and each enrolled corps is entitled to send competitors at the rate of two for each company. Each competitor must be an " effi cient," and 10s. entrance fee for each one entered will have to be paid. Each competitor will be en titled to compete for the vase and other prizes in the first stage. The first prize will be the vase itself, which is to be held for a year by the commandant of the battalion of which the winner is a member, and the winner himself will receive the gold and enamelled jewel of St. George and a purse of ten " dragon" sovereigns. The second prize is the sil ver and enamelled jewel of St. George and eight dragon sovereigns; the third, the bronze cross of St. George and a purse of six dragon sovereigns ; and so on, with prizes of purses of dragon sovereigns to the 50th prize, the winner of which has two. All these - winners, and the ten next scores, who are to compete together in the second stage, are to be entitled to handsome distinguishing badges, bearing Petruccio's design of St. George and the Dragon, to be worn permanently upon the arm, as the Queen's badges are. The chief second stage prize is to be a cup value £5O, which is to be the exclu sive property of the highest score at this stage, and five other prizes are to be given to the next best scores. There is no entrance fee to be paid in this stage, which will be shot for with seven shots at GOO yards. The vase was presented by Lieut.-Col. Hon. C. H. Lindsay, the commandant of the St. George's Rifle Volunteer Corps, and the competition has al ways been a favourite one with the Volunteers, as, being contested for by efficient members, it has en couraged drill, and being shot for with the military arm, with Government ammunition, and in the Hythe position, there was an equal chance for all. IRELAND. DUBLIN, Feb. 16. We have at length some details of the insurrec tionary movements in Kerry, all the Dublin papers having sent special reporters to Killarney. In their necessarily hurried despatches which appear this morning, and other correspondence from the South ern papers, there are many different versions of al most every report. The following is a connected narrative of Is hat has occurred. The special correspondent of the Freeman gives the following account of the attack on the police man :—" Duggan was riding from Killorglin to Cahirciveen, with despatehesfrom County Inspector Collura to Sub-Inspector Anketell, and also with the warrant for O'Connor. Ile met the Fenians, and they called upon him to give up his papers, pro mising, if he did so, not to molest him. He refused, and they were proceeding to attack him, when he drew his sword, put spurs to his horse, and dashed through them. A number of shots were fired after him, but at last one hit him in the back and he fell to the ground. The papers, his arms, and horse were taken. Some of the party, however, carried him to a house, and he, believi ng h e was d y i ng, b egge d o f t h em, for God's sak e , to get him a priest. They consented, and two of the party were on their way for the purpose, when they were met by the Rev. Mr. M'Ginn, parish priest of Glenbegh, and directed him where to find Duggan. The priest at once attended him and had him removed to where he could receive proper medical treatment. The same clergyman, having learnt that the party were about to attack the police barracks at Rosbeg, got there in time to warn the Police, and then he took his course so as to meet the Fenians. He called on them to abandon their dreadful work, and told them not to attack the barracks, a s th e police were ready for them, and were determin e d to d e f en d t h e i r b arrac k s t o the last ex trem i ty. the informatio n .' The priest, raising his hat, said, ` Th en , s i r ,' sa id the leader, you gave ' Yes, I did so. If necessary I would do so again, and lam prepared for the consequences.' After some discussion they allowed the priest to pass, and they took care not to approach the barracks. I may mention that Glenbegh is about 14 miles from Kil larney. The first intimation given of the contem plated movement was b y a li tt l e b are f o ot e d girl to the house of Mr. T. G a ll wey, J . P . , the agent of Lord Castlerosse. M r . G allwey as k e d her from whom she brought it, and she said it was given to her by an old man whom she did not know. This letter stated that a man known to the Fenians as Capt. Murty Moriarty,' an Irish American, was coming on the car from Cahirciveen to Killarney, and that he had on his person treasonable papers, with an introduction to a young man named Sheehan, a shopman in Killarney. The letter also states that Moriarty would be recognised as having a ' broken nose.' Mr. Gallwey and Mr. Coltsmaa sent out the police, who met the car four miles out side Killarney, and arrested on it a man answering this description. He had on his person the letter of introduction from the before named O'Connor. This letter stated the persons in Killarney were to act under Captain Moriarty's orders ; that they would be co-operated with; that Lord Castlerosse's house was to be burnt, and the banks and other houses attacked and plundered. Moriarty is now in Tralee gaol, and along with him the young man Sheehan, to whom he had the letter of intro duction, and also a carpenter named Garde, said to be implicated by the papers. Among the persons recognised with the Fenians was a building contractor from Killarney and also a well-to do farmer. Some of the magistrates think that the Fenians have forced a few of the peasantry to accompany and guide them. It is well ascer tained that a number of the party, the Irish Ame ricans, are altogether ignorant of the district. On Thursday morning an attempt was made to upset the mail train to Tralee, by placing stones on the rails about five miles outside Killarney. For pushed the stones tunat off. elv, the fire-box of the engine In the Dublin Gazette, published last night, a pro clamation appears placing the whole county of Kerry under the provisions of the Peace Preservation Act. It also contains a proclamation, signed yesterday, offering a reward of £5OO to any person or persons who shall, within six months of this date, give such information as will lead to the arrest of the person or persons who attacked and wounded Constable Duggan on the night of the 12th inst. at Drom, near Killorglin. A second proclamation offers a reward of £250 to any person or persons who shall give such information as shall lead to the arrest of J. J. O'Connor, who acted as commander of the in surgents at Killarnea, Killorglin, and Cahirciveen. At Limerick, yesterday evening, Sub-Inspector Chauner and Constable O'Brien succeeded, after a long and difficult search, in arresting a person named Murphy, known to be the Fenian Head Centre for Limerick. At the same time they arrested, in com pany' e with Murphy, two .A.mericAn colonels. lh three were concealed in a lodging-house. A warrant for the apprehension of Murphy was issued nearly a year since, but he managed to escape detection until now. The presence of many strangers believed to be Americans just at this juncture in Limerick has caused considerable excitement. The authorities, hriwever, arc prepared. A telegram from Killarney, dated this evening (Saturday), states that all is quiet there :—" The It flex went to the Gap of Dunloe last night at mid night and have not yet returned. The meeting of magistrates intended to be held to-day was deemed unnecessary. The fugitive Fenians were seen last night in the neighbourhood, unable to escape ac cross the river. Seventeen arrests are alleged to have been made this morning in Cahircivecn. There is an unconfirmed rumour of disturbances in Nenagh." The movement must be considered as having quite collapsed. On the arrival of the steamship Alexandria from Holyhead, and the St Columbia, from Liverpool, at the North Wall this morning, Inspector Devin and Corr and a party of police arrested 16 men, appa rently belonging to the labouring class who were on board.

The Vo'unteers and the Belgians. Early as it is in the year. the Executive Committee of the Volunteers who visited Brussels last year is already making preparations to receive the Belgian visitors, who will number, it is said, some 2,000. They will be under very distinguished command, it is believed, the Belgians desiring that his Royal highness the Comte de Flaudres should lead them across the sttait. A meeting of the Volunteer Com mittee was held a few days since, under the presi denby of Viscount Bury. It was then determined to organise a Middlesex committee, to act with committees of other counties, and a long programme of the entertainments proposed was drawn out. As this is to be a national reception, in return for the reception given by the Belgian nation to Volunteers from every part of the country, it was resolved to appeal to the country at large in aid of the large fund required in the metropolis, where the Belgians will remain principally during their brief sojourn in this country. There will be special prizes given to them to shoot for at Wimbledon ; but what they desire, as stated in their organs of sport, is to com pete with the English. There is a difficulty in this, as the "All-corners' prizes" at Wimbledon are not shot for as "All-comers" prizes are abroad—namely, with military sighted rifles, and there is no mean, in the 'Wimbledon competition, between the Enfield and the expensive rifles, with costly sights and costly ammunition, which characterise the small bore competitions open to " All" who, under this system, have been very few " comers." The restriction of these competitions to mili tary sighted weapons would encourage all classes to enter, and would open a way for all nations to mea sure their skill with weapons which could be used in the field. This point is worth noticing, as the Bel gians will visit Wimbledon with the view of shoot ing against the English as the English shot against them in the Tir National—on equal terms as far as sights were concerned. The fetes to-the visitors are expected to include a banquet at the Crystal Palace, a banquet in the city, organised visits to the theatres and other places of amusement in London, and a grand ball at the Agricultural-hall. Some counties talk of organising special fetes, but except in those places - which lie upon the route between the coast and London, there will be no time or opportunity for the Belgians to be thus entertained. Experience has shown that the greater body of them, the same as the Volunteers themselves, cannot make a pro longed holiday, such as a visit to places a long dis- The West India and Pacific Mails. SOUTHAMPTON, Sunday. The Royal Mail Company's steam-ship Atrato, Captain West, with the above mails, arrived off Netley Hospital this afternoon. She brings 61 passengers ; specie, 1,010,702 dollars; also 3,139 serous indigo, 204 serons bark, 725 bales tobacco, 460 bags cocoa, and 529 packages sundries. The Atrato left St. Thomas's on the Ist inst., up to which date the mail from Southampton on the 17th ult. had not arrived out. Yellow fever, cholera, and small-pox still pre vailed at St. Thomas, but the sickness had much decreased during the fortnight. The statistics of the mortality of St. Thomas for the last 26 years show that the deaths this season have exceeded by 346 that of any previous season. The weather at St. Thomas was still very hot. The Atrato during her stay at St. Thomas steamed out of the harbour every afternoon, an choring at the open anchorage, and, owing to the great precautions taken in the various departments of the ship, not a case of yellow fever has occurred on board during the passage. Dr. Wiblin, the medical superintendent of quarantine, allowed the passengers to land immediately on arrival, and the ship herself comes into dock this evening. Cholera had broken out at Greytown, and was making frightful ravages amongst the population. Her Majesty's gunboat Nettle left Port Royal, Jamaica, on the 24th for the outports. The Royalist was to leave on an early day for Porto Rico ; the Simoom was expected at Jamaica from the West Coast of Africa ; the Aboukir, Onyx, and Steady were in Port Royal harbour. The Pacific mail-steamer Payta, from Valparaiso on the 3d Jan. ; Coquimbo, 4th ; Caldera, sth ; Arica, Bth ; Callao, 14th ; and Paiti, 17th, arrived at Panama on the 28th. The following is the latest intelligence by that mail, published in the Panama Star and Herald of the 23d : " CHILE.—We find no news of importance from Chile. The project ;of levying, extraordinary con tributions for the purpose of meeting the deficit in the Treasury had given rise to very warm discussion in the Senate, some of the members accusing the Cabinet of great extravagance in the administration of the Government. The allied fleet was in Val paraiso. Admiral Tucker and Captain Williams were in Santiago consulting with the Ministry. It was rumoured in Talparaiso that the Spanish ad miral will proceed with all the ships under his com- mand to the Falkland Islands. It is also currently reported that the Spaniards': intend establishing a naval station at Montevideo, from which point they would be able to look after all ships, transports, and munitions of war that the Republics may be necessitated to order from Europe or the United States.

PERU.—A recent law passed in Peru confers on all foreigners who have resided in the country for upwards of five years the right of voting for the election of President of the Republic and members of Congress ; and several British residents in Arequipa consulted Lord Stanley as to whether, if they took advantage of this law and voted, they in any way forfeited their rights as British subjects, entitled to the protection of the British Govern ment, in any question with the Peruvian Government. "In answer, Mr. Hammond has addressed a despatch to her Majesty's Consul in Islay to the following effect : ' After consulting the law officers of the Crown upon the matter, his lordship is of opinion that by claiming and exercising the right of voting for the election of President of the Republic and members of Congress, British subjects would, to a very great extent, incorporate themselves in the Peruvian nation, and would render it extremely difficult, perhaps impossible, for her Majesty's Go vernment to render them official protection in any matter which might arise between themselves and, the Government of Peru. If, therefore, they choose to take this step, it must be with a clear understand ing that they will be liable to be considered and treated as Peruvian subjects, within the territory of Peru.'

The Government of Guadaloupe had levied a tax of 10 centimes per kilogramme upon cotton and cocoa exported in 1867, and 5 per cent. upon the gross produce of every hectare of land cultivated in provisions, or any cultivation of a secondary de- acription. At Trinidad the weather was fine and encourag ing to the planters. Sugar making was progressing for, shipment. The weather at Jamaica has been fine, with good sea breezes.

A cooper on a certain estate was asked to make a puncheon during the first week of the year-ss. was the price previously paid—he answered that if one was particularly wanted he would make it for Bs., but he believed the Govern ment price was to be 10s. On account of this stop page of labour much has not yet been done in sugar making. Some of the wiser hands have set to work, others are slowly following ; in a week or two all will turn out as usual. There will be a very considerable falling off in the sugar crops in Vete, St. Thomas in the East, and Trelawny. The coffee crop of the high mountains will be very small. The greater part of that on the lower mountains has already been gathered, and the bearing has been heavy. There is every indication that next crop will be early and abundant. The Governor, Sir J. P. Grant, left for Hondu ras on Jan. 12. During his absence Major-General O'Connor has assumed the administration of the government of Jamaica. The mail schooner Venice arrived at Kingston on the 12th, from Belize, with the despatches from the Lieutenant-Governor, Mr. Austin.
