AT a PUBLIC VESTRY of the INHA BITANTS of the PARISH of CLERKENWELL, held in St. James's Church, on Wednesday, the 12th day of October, 1831, Mr. GEORGE TINDALL, Churchwarden, in the Chair; It was resolved unanimously— That this Vestry regards with feelings of extreme indignation the rejection by the House of Lords of the Bill for Parliamentary Reform, a measure adopted by a large majority of the Commons House of Parliament, and which is thus for the present defeated by an assembly which, in reason and in justice, has no right to a share in modelling the constitution of the LOwer House. That the resistance of the House of Lords to the wishes of the Monarch and the nation hail demonstrated that an Oligarchy of two hundred has power to lord it alike over the King and the people, a tyranny that must be subdued by the Constitutional •and determined efforts of a brave, loyal, intelligent, and united community. That it is the duty of the pefiple to assemble and support, with tinshrinking firmness, a Ministry devoted , to exertion for the public good; and this Vestry do therefore address his Majesty, praying that he will continue his well deServed confidence to the present Cabinet, and that he will speedily exercise his preroga tive in adopting the means necessary to secure the accomplish. ment of a complete Reform of Parliament, by which only the na tion can be saved from anarchy, and reieved from its_present severe pressure of embarrassment and distress. That his Majesty be implored to dismiss forthwith from appoint ments held during the pleasure of the Crown all who have voted in Parliament against the Reform Bill, or who have been actively hostile to the measure elsewhere. That the Vestry have segn, with feelings of extreme regret, 21, of the Rev. Bench of Bislioig44•eidin4 against the wishes of our Sovereign and his peopleMiffs - dialilaying themonStrous anornaly of the fathers of the chnrbh fruStrating the benevolent designs of the lather of his people, a proceeding which we conceive to 'be totally at variance with the true principles of Christianity, an in. suit to their SOvereign, land calculated in the most serious de gree to lower and degrade them in the estimation of their fellow subjects. That in expressing our warmest approbation of those en lightened Peers who supported in the late division our natural liberties, this Vestry feels the highest admiration .of that illus trious and patriotic Prince, his Royal Highness' the Duke of Sussex, who distinguished himself with manly and convincing eloquence, the only Prince. of the Blood Royal who loyally assisted his and our revered Sovereign in his beneficent efforts for the happiness of his people. That this Meeting do, individually and collectively, pledge itself to maintain, at all hazards, the preservation of public order and tranquillity, and to supporti)y all the constitutional means in their power, the constituted authorities of the realm. That .an Address be prepared, founded on the foregoing Re solutions. • That a deputation, consisting of Messrs. Const, Gregory, Adams, Beckwith, and Pascal!, with the Churchwardens, do wait on the Marquis of Westminster, and request him to lay the ad dress before his Majesty forwith. That the Addres; be'engrossed on vellum, and • signed by the Churchwardens on behalf of the Vestry. That these Resolutions be published in The Times, Morning• Herald, Morning Chronicle, Mornin g Ad ver ti ser , Sun, and Courier newspapers. That the particular thanks of this Meeting be given to Mr. Tindall, Churchwarden, for his impartial ability and attention in the business of this day. _ GEO. SELBY, Vestry Clerk. PORTSMOUTH.

" TO THE KING'S MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY. " MOST GRACIOUS SOVEREIGN, " We, your Majesty's loyal subjects, the inhabitant householders of the Borough of Portsmouth, humbly beg leave to request that your Majesty will be graciously pleased to accept of our most un feigned assurances of affectionate attachment to your Royal Person, and of our lively gratitude for your Majesty's paternal concern for the interests and welfare of your subjects. We wou'd especially tender to your Majesty our humble and earnest thanks for the measure lately brought befbre Parliament by your Majesty's Government to amend the representation of the people, and for the effectual and necessary y Reform which would thereby have been introduced into the House of Commons. " After the gracious appeal made from the Throne to the people, and their almost unanimous answer to that appeal, and their unequivocal acceptance and approval of the Bill laid before Parliament, and after this great measure had passed the Lower House by a large and decided majority, we most sincerely deplore the event which has since taken place—that the House of Lords, adhering to a system of representation, notoriously corrupt and universally condemned by the intelligence and voice of the nation, should, in the exercise of their legislative power, have set themselves against so wise and salutary a measu re , an d in direct opposition both to ypur Majesty, the Government; and the people. o As good: and faithful subjects we implore your Majesty to persevere in your Majesty's kind and gracious design of coffi— plying with the earnest desire and prayers of the nation, so uni versally expressed for an effectual Reform in the Commons House of Parliament ; we beg leave to assure your Majesty of our unabated adherence to the proposed measure, and of our ..onfidenee in, and our determination to support your Maj esty ' s Ministers on the present awful crisis ; and we fervently beseech your Majesty, by the exercise of your Royal prerogative, to take such measures in favour of the people as may be the means of promoting the plan of Reform proposed, and of asserting and maintaining the glorious and excellent principles of the British Constitution. 4 . And, as in duty bound, we shall ever pray, fm.,, In consequence pf the rejection of the Re form Bill by the House of Lor d s , a re q uisi tion to the Mayor of Chichester to 41 a public meeting to addreqs the KING is already most numerously signed. Thi s go of their Lordships Will lower them considerably in the eyes of all judging men, who ask what is their power ? The eldest son of Lord WYNFORD is, it seems, the warmest champion of Lord ASHLEY in the contest for Dorsetshire, which has given rise to the fol lowing equivoque :—" No wonder his Lordship is.,likely to came off but eeccn4.4est when his chief atiheretit is no better." At the last levee his MAJESTY, with much affability, inquired of Prince TALLICYRAND as to the state of his health ? The veteran diplomatist replied that he " was rather affected by the keen wio.l of toe 71 " 41 "" — This reply, having been made in the heariag of the Rus sian and Austrian Ambassadors, bas created a good deal of chit-chat i n t h e di p l omat i c circles.

I have to acquaint your Lordship that, on the morning o f the 11th instant, t hi s flourishing and happy colony Wa4 visited by one of th e most dreadful hur;icanas ever expe rienced in the West Indian. On the e'ler , Olg oi. the 10th, the sun set on a landscape of tha greatest beauty and fertility, and rose on the fol lowing morning over an utter desolation and a - waste.

In this town all is quiet. The intelligence of the rejection of the Bill reached here by a little after noon on Saturday. It was contained in a copy of • 771 E Suva newspaper, which was brought down by an extraordinary express. It was high market at the time, and the news spread rapidly; but although opinion runs strongly in two countercurrents, it led to no disturbance. The reflecting part of the Tories do not scruple to admit that they would rather the Bill should have passed; not that their opi nion of its character is clianged;but becausethey are constrained to admit that the evils which are likely to follow its rejection are far greater, more certain, and more immediate, than those they apprehended from its adoption. The Reformers are kept quiet by the cheering and Confident hope eat the Bill will soon be passed,and that what has taken place, although it has deferred, cannot defeat, the measure. The greatest anxiety prevails to ob tain early intelligence frOm London, and the inn-yards are con stantly crowded about the . hours the coaches arrive. On Tues day evening a meeting of the Northampton Constitutional Union took place in the spacious room, Mr. Mayor's, the Peacock-inn. The attendance was unusually numerous, and upwards of fifty additional members were made that night. The Rev. Noah Jones addressed the meeting, as well as several other gentlemen, and it was.agreed to appoint a committee to draw up a requisi tion, requesting the Mayor to call a town meeting, to' consider the propriety of addressing his Majesty. Power was also given to them to act on any emergency. PORTSMOUTH, OCT. 12. A most satisfactory meeting was held here to-day of all the Reformers, and that is of all the town, to address his Ma jesty on the awful situation of affairs, to thank the Peers who have done their duty by supporting the Reform Bill, and to thank our borough and county Members, who manfully and cheerfully attended every day's debate in the Commons. On this occasion the Mayor, James Carter, Esq., presided, and the meeting was favoured with the attendance of our two borough Members, John Bonham Carter, Esq., and Francis Thornhill Baring, Esq. The meeting took place in our Sessions-room, which is the most capacious we have in the town, and which was filled to suffoca tion. Several most excellent speeches were delivered by the Members, by Messrs. Lang, E. Jackson, D. Howard, H: Snooke, N. Griffin, E. Carter, Rev. Birt, and more particularly by Mr. Spence, a gentleman of Irish origin, but of most superior at tainments and who, in a happy vein of humour, m i xe d up with the pureseclassical and biblical tropes, allusions, and figures, elec trifled, fixed, astonished, and convinced his auditors of the jus tice of their cause. The meeting was not over until a late hour, or a fuller account should be sent. Nesterday evening a most resplendent meeting was held at Gosport,'for the purpose of addressing his Majesty. 'William Grant, Esq., was called `to the Chair. Nearly 400 persons assem bled at a few hours' notice. We need hardly add that a most energetic address was voted, and ordered to be presented to his Majesty at the earliest Levee. 7th Regiment (depot companies) were ordered th is even ing, by Semaphore signal, to march to-morrow morning to Win chester. We trust this proceeding is only precautionary, as we have heard of no disturbance in that quarter, nor is any expected, ALTON TOWER, OCT. 11. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sts,—l beg leave through the medium of your spirited and pa triotic Paper (if you will allow me to do so), to bring it to the re collection of the public that out of nineteen Catholics who sit in the House of Commons, only one voted against Reform, and he sits as the representative of a close borough, and, therefore, can not be considered as a free agent. And out of the nine Catholic Peers in the House of Lords we have again but one solitary vote against the Bill, and that from a Nobleman who has hitherto ever signalized himself as the friend of the people, and as the advocate of the poor. While the country has, therefore, cause to rejoice in the admission of Catholics to their legislative rights, surely that false and absurd notion that as Catholics we are the enemies of freedom, and the sticklers for arbitrary power, will now be exploded for ever. Look, Sir, at the Reformation now carrying on in the Papal states, where the Sovereign, though both Prince and Pontiff, has the wisdom and magnanimity to yield to the just demands of his people, exhibiting an honourable contrast to the folly and bigotry of our Protestant hierarchy,who, by their betrayal of the country upon the present occasion have proved themselves unworthy of the possession of political privi leges. But I will not waste your time in descanting upon these facts; it is sufficient that I have drawn your attention to them, confident that they will be duly appreciated by every honest Eng lishman, all of whom will, I trust, at this eventful crisis, unite in the rallying cry of, " The Bill, the whole Bill, and nothing but the Bill." For it is this Bill alone that can do justice to the people—that can destroy the oligarchical character ofour Govern ment, and while it scares away revolution and blights the hopes of the anarchist, can establish the institutions of the country upon a sate and solid foundation. I have the honour to be, Sir, your obedient Servant, SHREWSBURY. CARLISLE, OCT. 10. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. - • - Suf i —Through the extraordinary and indefatigable exertions of the proprietors of The Sun newspaper, the result of the divi sion of the House of Lords, upon the all-absorbing question of Reform, reached this city about ten o'clock yesterday evening by express; but it being a somewhat '- late hour, and Sun day evening, it was not generally known until this morning, when the strongest feelings of chagrin and disappointment pervaded almost every countenance. At nine o'clock, the time at which the Reform Association meet daily, the room for that purpose was thronged with the principal tradesmen and artisans, a great portion of the latter being compelled to remain outside on the street, and the town continued in the most feverish state of anxiety. The result of the de liberations of the Reform Association was to call a public meeting to know what course was best to be pursued, and al though the meeting took place at one o'clock the same day, we venture to say that there never was such a numerous or respect. able meeting within the precincts of the city of Carlisle By one o'clock business was completely suspended—all the shops were closed, as on a Sunday, as a mark of sorrow for the untoward event—and by the time the business of the meeting was about to commence upwards of 12,000 persons were in attendence. A band of music, playing an appropriate air, and accompanied with 10 or 12 flags, inscribed with suitable mottos, and hung with crape, followed by an immense multitude, paraded the streets of the town, and•thence proceeded in the same order to the place of meeting. John Dickson, Esq. of Knells, and a partner in one of the principal manufacturing establishments, was called to the chair; and after several animated speeches, the purport of which was to inculcate peace and order until the last resource had failed, from H. A. Aglionby, Esq. of Newbiggin Hall; Joseph Ferguson, Esq. (Fisher-street), Carlisle, manufacturer; Thomas Ranashay, Esq. of Brampton, barrister ; Mr. H. Pearson, jun. ; Mr. G. G. Mounsey ; and Mr. Ross, of Carlisle, and several others, the meet ing separated, giving three hearty cheers for the King, and three for the Ministry. The greatest good humour pervaded the whole meeting, and the resolution to keep the peace, which wfis put by the Chairman, was carried by acclamation and an expres sion of feeling which was sufficient to convince the most strenu ous Anti-Reformer of the utter hopelessness of their present career. Strong, but at the same time calm and dispassionate, language was uttered by the different speakers; and an intima tion was given to meet again, and adopt other measures, if neces sary, should the present be insufficient. The division will, it is to be feared, have a most ruinous effect upon the trade of the city, as the fear and anxiety of the tradesmen has caused several of them to condense their business into aslittle compass as possible, without totally shutting up, and should the Bill not be speedily carried we are afraid that the peace of the country will be en dangered. The enthusiasm of the people in favour of the King and his Ministry still remains unabated ; and, instead of cooling, as has been falsely stated by the boroughmongers, is, if possible, still stronger, now that they have been placed in such a painful and unprecedented predicament by the tricking and selfishness of the House of Peers. But they are sanguine that all will yet be welL The following are copies of the memorial to Earl Grey, and the petition to the King, which were agreed to at the meeting : " TO THE KING'S MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY, " Your Majesty's most dutiful and loyal subjects, the inhabi tants of the city of Carlisle and its vicinity, in public meeting as sembled, in approaching your Majesty's 'Throne with the ten der of our devoted attachment to your Majesty's Person and Go vernment, beg to express the feelings of deep sorrow with which our minds have been filled by the announcement of the fact that the House of Peers have rejected that wisp, salutary, and con servative measure of Reform which had been passed by the House of Commons, and received with the almost unanimous approbation of the country. " The manifold grievances of which your petitioners have on so many occasions complained, they ascribe to the want of a due representation of the people in Parliament ; and they hailed vii_th unmixed pleasure the Bill of Reform intr o d uced b y your Ma, hsty's Ministers into the House of Commons, a ccept i ng i t as t h e harbinger of future peace and prosperity. " Great then has been their disappointment and alarm, at the rejection of this measure by the House of Lords ; and under those feelings they beg humbly and respectfully to urge upon the attention of your Majesty the imminent hazard in which this question has placed the peace of the country. " Your humble petitioners therefore most earnestly pray your Majesty to exercise that just, salutary, and undoubted pr•broga: tive which the Constitution has !teed ill your Majesty's hands, of creatin& such a number orPeers as May be necessary for en suring thesuccess of this great measure of Reform, and for add ing lustre to your Majesty's reign. !'

PRICE 7D. turn their rest. Soon after, however, it began to rain, ac companied with flashes of lightning and high wind; it appeared to me from the north and east ; towards mid night the wind increased, and was more to the westward and south-west, the rain fell in torrents and the lightning was vivid in the extreme ; at one o'clock, or thereabouts, it was first suspected by me, from its extreme violence, to he a hurricane, and not long after some of my servants came running into the house, saying that the roof of the kitchen bad fallen in. Several poor people in the neigh. hourhood also took refuge in Government-house, their wooden houses having been blown down. From about two o'clock until the day broke, it is im possibleto convey to your Lordship's mind any idea of the violence of the storm; no language of mine is adequate to express sufficiently its horrors. The noise of the wind through the apertures formed by it, the peals of thunder, and the rapidly repeated flashes of lightning (more like sheets of fire), and the impenetrable darkness which suc ceeded them, the crash of walls, roofs, and beams, were all mixed in appalling confusion, and the whole house shook to its very foundation ; •whether this last effect was pin- diked by the force of the wind, or by aa'earthquake, sup posed by many to have accompanied the storm, l an un able to decide ; but the rente and fisetiqs,,which are k visi , le in the massive walls of this . bitildlig — ivoild 'find one to suppose the latter cause only could have produced them. About this time, two o'clock, finding that Government house, which had been but recently repaired, was giving way, the officers of my staff, myself, and servants, together with some unfortunate persons who had escaped froth the neighbouring huts, took refuge in the cellar, where we re mained in perfect safety, thank God, until the day dawned ; had we continued in the rooms above stairs, or indeed in any other part of the house, there is little doubt our lives must have been sacrificed, from the ruinous appear ance presented in the morning. The tempest did not entirely cease, nor the atmosphere clear up, untd about nine o'clock in the morning of the 11th, and then it was we becAine more sensible of the ca lamities and heart-breaking consequences of this most awful scourge. Whole families were buried in its ruins. Fortunately some of the churches were found less injured than any other buildings (although many are destroyed), and they were instantlY thown open for the reception of the wounded and maimed. Medical aid was procured with all the haste which the encumbered state of the streets and roads would permit, fir many trees and houses bad fallen across the public ways, and much obstructed our intercourse. Under these most distressing and appalling circum stances, it is wonderful with what equanimity and forti tude every one seems to hear his loss, and this affords sonic little consolation to my mind. But I cannot hide from my view the awful prospects of want and destitution, ac companied, as it may be, with pestilence, which must naturally result from such a general and wide spread calamity. No estimate of damage done or loss sustained can be at present formed, with any degree of accuracy or even sur mised ; suffice it to say that them is no exaggeration in the picture I have drawn, and that as soon as any correct opinion can be formed on the subject, your Lordship shall be duly apprised of it. I must not omit to add that the barracks and hospitals at St. Ann's are in a state of complete dilapidation and ruin ; and I have been under the necessity of ordering the troops under canvass. No deaths have occurred amongst the officers, with the exception of one gentleman of the Commissariat Department, a Mr. Flanner, who was entombed with three of his children, a female relative, and two servants, ip the ruins of his house. The number of soldiers killed, however, of the corps composing the garrison, viz., the Royal Artillery, the 35th and 36th regiments, amount, by this day's return, to 36 ; and very many accidents of a serious nature have also been sustained by the troops. have called a meeting of the Legislature for Monday the 15th instant, the earliest moment which I could hope t 9 collect them together. In the mean time the most wealthy and influential inhabitant* are making everyrffort to relieve the poor, houseless, and destitute. The sacred work of charity has begun, and will be encouraged and assisted by every means in my power; and under circum stances of such grievous and awful calamity, I look for ward with hope and confidence to the sympathies of the mother country. I will not conclude this despatch without giving your Lordship the assurance, that my determination is, as well as those who surround me, to meet our accumulated evils with resolution and fortitude, and to exert our best efforts to assuage and mitigate to the utmost of our abilities every distress which may present itself. The task may be arduous, perwveran b ce s u o t b: t ug ‘ u Vil i i t be ComaypllletaseinUed AlinwilgthhtyllThrink Providence ing to afford us health and strength to do so.

MY I.ourt,—l have the honour to transmitherewi th two copies of a temporary Act, which was passed by the Le gislature of this island at their last meeting, and which Act, under the exigencies of the moment, I trust will meet with your Lordship's approbation; its duration, it will be noticed by your Lordship, does not extend beyond a period of thirty days. The commies ons mentioned in the Act, for cleaving the streets, &c. &c., have been in operation for the last fort night, and it gives me great satisfaction to acquaint your Lordship that they have been attended with the most be neficial effects. Free intercourse is again restored; and the slaves, who were much inclined to be idle, and in some instanoes re fractory, have resumed work and are perfectly obedient , tce their masters. A very favourablere-action has taken place in all quarters, and much activity prevails in roofing in houses, and restoring ruins to habitable form. A cOa2.- mittee of philanthropic gentlemen, with the Lord Bishop of the diocese as their Chairman, are making every effort to relieve the distresses of thespooraod destitute; and the wouhded and maimed in St. Michael's church continuo, to receive every attention required from the medical gentle men of the island. With a ,libevality and good feeling which reflects the higbeat •bonoor upon the neighbouring colonies who have escaped this most direful visitation, they are daily forwarding in aid of our charities, prorisions, Serials, or money. The particulars of these muulfwent acts of charity I shall make known to your Lordship in a future letter ; meantime I may acquaint you that, with the advice of the Council, I have directed the officers of his Majesty's cus toms 0,1414 free of colonial duty all provisions, Sic. which are tuna fide for the use of the poor.

On the 13th ult. I considered it my dJty ro make known, as n idely as possible, stir calamitous circum stances to the neighboring islands and colonies; and no sooner had the distressing intelligence reached the colonies of Demerara, Grenada, Antigua, Dominica, and Trinidad, than the benevol en t i n h a bi tants ofeach set about preparing 1 All classes and all colours vied with each other in their haste to contribute their mite towards relieving the wants of the poor and houseless ; and it is with feelings of pride and satisfaction that I state to your Lordship, that the troops stationed in the different islands have emulated the bright example of the inhabitants ; even in this island, where their privations have been great, one day's pay has been subscribed by all ranks ; and the 86th Regiment, stationed in Antigua, has contributed no less than three days' pay. By these generous and timely efforts they will have the satisfaction of knowing, that they have alleviated the sor rows of many a widow, and appeased the hunger of many an orphan child ; and what reward can be higher I know not. The colony of Demerara has forwarded in provisions Dollars, and money to the amount of • 7,000 • Antigua, private subscriptions, &c 3,000 Grenada, House of Assembly voted 1,0001.1 currency, and private subscriptions, 1,0000 4,000 Dominica, private subscriptions 1,500 Trinidad, Council 1,000/. sterling 4,1300 The Illustrious Cabildo l,OOO Private subscriptions 4,200 Dollars, 25,500 At the bead of these subscription lists I observe the names of Sir J.

Government-house, Barhadoes, August IS, 1831. Sta,—Lhave the melancholy intelligence to communi cate to your Excellency, that on the morning of the 1 Ith instant we had the misfortune to be visited by one of toe most awful and violent hurricanes ever experienced ;n this island. Theloas of life and dreadful accidents are numerous, and the damage done to property is immense, although no cor rect estimate can be at present formed. May I request that your Excellency will make known our situation to your community, and communicate, if possible, by the first ship (if any are at present in your port) to England, the intelligence, that our situation and wants may be supplied with as much celerity as circum stances will permit. It will be obvious, that as nearly every house in the island is levelled, or materially injured, lumber• will be much required, and provisions of every kind. I have the honour, &c. (Signed) JAMES LYON. Government-house, St. Vincent, Aug. 12. My Loan,—lt is my painful duty to report to your Lordship the devastation and desolation occasioned by the most violent hurricane with which this island wits ever visited, and in doing so, I beg your Lordship may make due allowance for the itnperlect detail which the hurry of the moment, under such painful circumstances, must occasion. At an early hour yesterday morning the storm com menced from the northward, but was not much felt by the principal town and shipping until about half-past eight, when its violent effects were destructive in the extreme. Every vessel at the anchorage with the exception of one was east on shore, and I much fear very few are likely to be saved. It may b.! said, with few exceptions, that every planta tion within this Government has sustained damage more or less, by the total destruction of their crops and provisions, of buildings, of works, and negro houses, and in one of the towns three houses only remain. The public buildings, barracks, and officers' quarters have suffered in like pro.- portion, and I regret to add, reports from the various quarters of the Government confirm my most painful ap— prehensions of the loss of life, as well as property. It will he obvious to your Lordship, that ti e effects of this awful dispensation of Providence must press very heavily on all classes of the community, and unless timely and abundant supply of the products of America and Great I3ritai❑ reach u., positive famine and ruin will be the inevitable consequence of this melancholy visitation. I have written this despatch, to be in readiness for the first opportunity to England which may offer, and shall keep your Lordship apprised of all measures which may he resorted to, for the alleviation of the prevailing distreis. I am, &c. (Signed) G. F. HILL The Right Hon. Viscount Goderich, &c. St. Vincent, August 27, IS3I. Mr Loan,—.l had the honour of addressing an official letter to your Lordship on the 12th of this month, and another, marked private, giving some account of the hur ricane of the llth instant, and its consequences. These letters I sent to Grenada, to be despatched by a merchant ship, (named the Lord Goderich) which was to sail from thence on Saturday, the 20th, for London, and I now enclose duplicates of those letters per mail. Pursuant to the anticipation in my private letter, I issued a proclamation on Thursday, the 19th instant, to admit flour and lumber duty free a , . this port for the rem tinder of the year 1831, which measure it is my duty to endea vour to justify. I had been strongly urged to adopt one more extensive in its operation than this, but I did not feel justifiod in taking any step to have effect beyond the existing exigency of providing against a want of food and materials for re pairing dilapidated buildings and sugar works, and not even this without sufficient proof that an extraordinary step was indispensable. Accordingly, I had every part of the inland visited, and due inquiry made into the extent of damage sustained on the negro provision grounds, and in the houses, huts, buildings, and sugar establishments-. i n addition, the Privy Council sat from Saturday, the 19th, to Wednesday, the 17th, and took evidence on the subject from gentlemen of the first respectability. They also ascertained the quantity of provision and ma terials fur the repairs in store. The former appeared inadequat e to furnish more than sufficient for five or six weeks' consumption, and the quantity of lumber too scanty to meet any thing like the demand and immediate exertion to reconstruct the habita tions, the mills, and the other sugar-viorks. The Council, therefore, unanimously recommended that flour and lumber should be .admitted duty free, until the 31st of December next. The advanced season of the year rendered timely sup plies; from British America unlikely, whilst the deplorable situation of Barbadoes confirmed the necessity of yielding to the proposition, I deemed it inexpedient to extend the period beyond the present year of 1834 for the free ad mission of 'lour and lumber, which gives ample time to re&we your Lordship's instructions on the subject, and in ease of the arrival of sufficient supplies to resume., by iroclarnation, the payment of duties. There has been an arrival here last week of 500 barrels of flour, and although an embargo at Barbadoes baa been laid against the export of provision (of which we do not in any manner corn plain) yet I have no dread of absolute want. Opportunities have offered and have been taken of no tifying in Canada, and the United States, the situation of both Barbadoes and St. Vincent, and supplies direct to each of these islands, may soon be expected from the United States. St. Lucia has not experienced much injury ; the other islands to the north (as reported) none at all. I enclose the Royal. St. 'Vincent's Gazettes for your Lordship's information, which give full psrticulais of thia lamentable occurrence. I have very great satisfaction in reporting to your Lord. ship, that neither during the confusion occasioned by the tempest, nor from the dispersion of all sort of property thrown about thereby, have any instances of plunder oc curred, or the slightest degree of insubordination.— Whereas on some estates the exertions of the negro pap:_ cation to assist their owners and managers, have been most meritoriou s , nor h ave the merchants generally taken advan tage of the preset distress by enha nc i ng pr i ces .
