The following is the speebh of his Excellency the Governor of Jamaica, in closing the session on the Ist of March : " Gentlemen of the Council, "Mr. Speaker and Gentlemen of the Assembly, "I. have much satisfaction in granting you a re cess after the labours of an unusu ally protracted session. "The assiduity and zeal which you have evinced in the discharge of your high functions, the prompt at • tention you afforded to the suggestions contained in my opening address, and the many useful enactments which you have passed, demand my warmest acknow ledgments. " The alacrity with which the parishioners in cer tain districts have come forward to carry out the ob jects of the Act for taking a census of the inhabitants promises . well.for the success of that important mea sure. It is for the interest of all classes that the amount of the population of the island should be as certained with the utmost possible accuracy, and I en tertain the hope that all will concur to aid the enume • rators in the execution_ .of the task assigned to th em . "I trust that the - labours of the Commissioners, whom I have named under the Act for appointing a commission to inquire into the charities of the island, will be attended with benefit to the colony. " The encouragement which you have afforded to the establishment of industrial schools, and the liberal grants provided for the relief of the sufferers by the fire at Kingston, and the erection of a lunatic asylum, are proofs of your solicitude for the general welfare. " The formation of a railway between Kingston and Spanish Town has been sanctioned by an Act of the Legislature during the current session. This project may be presumed to indicate increasing confidence in the resources of the colony, and will, it is hoped, tend to their further development. " I shall have much satisfaction in giving effect to the measures which you have passed for the encou ragement of immigration. "Two Acts have reached me, the one entitled An Act to enable the Court of Chancery to order the sale and conveyance of the real estates cf lunatics, and to grant leases for a limited period of estates in receiver ships ;' and the other, 'An Act to: prevent trespass on property,' from which, in consideration of the tenor :of my instructions, I have felt it my duty to withhold my assent, until I have had the means of communicating with her Majesty's Government on the subjects to which they respectively relate. The for mer of these Acts confers new and extensive powers upon the Court of Chancery, with the view of bene fiting parties interested in estates in receivership, tinder orders of the court. With respect to the latter, after much deliberation, I have come to the conclu sion that some of its provisions in their present shape are susceptible of a construction inconsistent with the principle. of British law, as affecting titles fo pro perty. Such an operation ofthe Actcould not, 'appre hend, have been contemplated by its promoters, and would tend, it is to be feared, to check those feelings of mutual confidence and affection which are happily springing up between all classes in the community, and towards the growth of which your legislation has so remarkably contributed. " Mr. Speaker and Gentlemen of the Assembly, " I thank you for the supplies which you have granted for the public service of the year. The re venue of the colony will, I trust, be found sufficient for the purposes to which it is appropriated by the Legislature. " Gentlemen of the Council, " Mr. Speaker and Gentlemen of the Assembly, "I am deeply grieved to learn that the continued drought has seriously injured the crop in some dis tricts of the island. " The peaceable and orderly demeanour of the population during the late Christmas season was the subject of general remark, and afforded me the most sincere gratification.

Unlike all other remedies for corns, its oleration is such as to render the cutting of the corns - altogether unnecessary; indeed:we may say, the practice of cutting corns is at all times highly dangerous, and has been fre quently attended with lamentable consequenc:s. besides its liability to increase their growth. It adheres with the most gentle pressure, produchig•an instant and delightful, relief from torture, and, with porieveraace in its aeplication, entirely eradicates the e most in veterate corns and bunions.

UCH E'S celebrated HERBAL EMBROCA TION is a certain cure for this distressing and too frequently fatal complaint. Many thousands of children aie cured annually by this remedy; on the first attack, an immediate application of the EMB ROCA. TION will prevent the complaint taking any hold of the constitution, and a few times using may completely cure. In most cases one bot. tie will produce the desired effbct ; and no remedy can be so well cal. ciliated for children as this, as it is an entire outward application, and requires no medicine to be taken i nterna ll y. The Proprietor of this Embrocation has the pleasing satisfaction of stating that many eminent members of the Faculty constantly recom. mend it as the only known safe and perfect cure. In no case can this medicine be genuine unless signed on the wrapper, "J. ROCHE." Price 4s. and 11.25. per Bottle. Sold by E. Edwards, 67, St. Paul's Church-yard ; also by Sanger !so, Oxtord.strcet; White, 24, Cornhill; and by most respectable Chemists. culatcd to make any impression on the' odds- 2 the Craven and 50 Sovs. Stakes: The _first proved beyond the pos sibility of doubt that Voltri's two-year-old performances were " ciaite correct"—the other, that Rattan's public and private merits have not been over-rated ; he made a shocking example of his competitors, and having no other engagement before the Derby, will make- bad hedging for those who are against him.

They ran so to the bushes where Voltri was beaten, and the leader was followed by by Corranna and St. Lawrence; the Saint gave up at the cords, but Corranna, mending her position in the run in, came with a rush at the finish, and won on the post by a head ; St. Lawrence a very bad third, and the others beaten off a long way from home.

RAILWAYS.—On Saturday a return was issued of all monies raised under acts whereby railroad companies have been incorporated, from Janua 1826, to January 1844, distinguishing the sums raised as principal, from the sums to be raised by loan or mortgage. The return contains the names of 121 railways and the titles of no fewer than 250 Acts of Parliament, which passed in the years mentioned, under which the moneys were raised The entire sum was " seventy-nine millions, twenty-six thousand and three hundred and seventeen pounds !" of which enormous sum 571 387 ,785/. was capital in joint stock, and'21,638,582/. to be raised by loan or mortgage. From May 1833 the London and Birmingham Railroad was empowered to raise 5 , 5 00,000/.., of which amount 3,500,0001. in joint stock, and 2 ,000,0001. by loan or mortgage. This appears the largest amount set forth in the return.— Sunday Paper. AVARICE EVEN IN DEATH.—An • aged female men dicant, named Margaret Kerslerinn, being attended on her death-bed by her sister, who also lived Munich en tirely on charity, desired with great earnestness that she might be buried in the cap she then wore, as she was greatly attached to it from its having been given to her by a benefactress. The promise was given, and old Margaret died in evident contentment. The sister took off the cap to prepare it for its last office, but seduced by a band round it, which she thought might be useful to herself, set to work to unpick it. This operation had not .proceeded far . when the , corner of a piece of paper appeared, and going on with her work, other pieces, to the number of 111, came forth, which, on being examined, proved to be hank -notes of 10 florins each, and consequently worth 1,110 florins, •or about 2,500 francs.—=Observer. " The — appointment of a Bishop of approved piety, ability, and zeal to the diocese of Jamaica, has given much satisfaction to the colony. " The patronage which her Majesty has been gra ciously pleased to bestow on the Royal Agricultural Society of Jamaica is an inducement to increased exertions on our part in the promotion of agricultural improvement, and a gratifying proof of the interest taken by our beloved Queen in the welfare of her subjects in this island. It will not, I hope, be considered out of place if I express, on this occasion, the deep sense of obliga tion under which you have laid me personally by the evidence you have given of your participation in my domestic affliction. " You are about to separate, at a period when your presence at your respective homes is much required. It is my earnest desire that your endeavours to pro mote the general welfare, and your own more imme diate interests may be attended with success ; and that contentment and happiness may prevail among all classes of the inhabitants of the colony.

In consequence of the absence of nearly all the sub scribers at the Newmarket Races, nothing was done. worthy of notice. HER MAJESTY'S BUCKIIOUNDS. The day commenced rather inauspiciously for the fol lowers of the chase. A rather sharp frost had set in during the night, and the worning opened with a strong wind from the east ; the sun, however, which rose bril liantly, with scarcely a cloud to be seen in the heavens, soon dispelled the effects of the frost, and the wind, shortly after noon, shifted round to the north-west. But as— " A southerly wind and a cloudy sky Proclaim a hunting morn,".: appearances, in these respects, were not very promising to the hundreds of horsemen who attended the last meet of the Royal staghounds for the season, yesterday morn ing, at Stoke-common, about two miles from the Slough station, and five from Windsor. The red coats mus tered on the • Common amounted to between 200 and 300, independently of as many horsemen not in hunting attire ; the heath on either side of the high road was lined with carriages containing the families of the nobi lity and gentry residing within a circuit of ten miles of the meet. A great number of sporting characters arrived from London by the morning trains, having sent their horses forward the night preceding. The pedestrians from the towns of Windsor and Eton, and the neigh bouring villages, began to assemble on the heath long before the hour appointed for uncarting the stag, and by half-past eleven o'clock the h , ()inlay folks amounted to upwards of 3 , 000 . T he , , deer, Smuggler," which h a d been selected for the days s p ort, upon being turned out upon the right of the common, crossed the road amongst the carriages and foot people, and after j ump i ng over a " one-horse slay. and capsizing a couple of old women from Burnham, went away i n sp l endid style towards West-end,into the wood, a n d th en i n the direction of Farnham, when it headed back through the wood to Hedgerly, and thence to Bulstrode-park and Brocas wood. At this point it was headed back through Bul strode- park, where it leaped the high wall, after the second attempt, making for Gerrard's-cross, and was taken at the Great Wood, close to Chalfont St. Peter's, after a very diversified run of nearly two hours and a half. THE AQUATIC SEASON. The forthcoming season bids fair to surpass any that have preceded it, not only in the number of th e ma t c h es , but in the variety and excellence of the sport. The ex ceeding fineness of the weather during the last few days has set the gentlemen who indulg e in thi s p o p u l ar , scien tific, and healthful sport upon the qui vine. During the past winter the number of long boats laid down at the respective boat-builders for the members of the Univer sities of Cambridge and Oxford, and other aquatic patrons, has exceeded by far that a any former year; and this, with the increased formation of aquatic clubs, and the arrangements already entered into, augurs well both in rowing and yachting. The opening match will take place on Thursday next over the great aquatic course (Westminster to Putney) amongst the gentlemen of the Oxford Subscription Rooms; it will be a four oared cutter race, the crews being chosen by lot, for a pair of silver oars and silver rudder. This will be fol lowed by the St. George's Boat Club Regatta, on the 28d instant, and by the first below-bridge sailing match lioLnoitx.-11olebOurne is noticed in the Dooms day survey, where the Ring is said to have two cottages, which pay xxd. a year to his Vice-comes.

Henry De Lacy died here, in 1312, and . upon its site the older part of Lincoln's Inn has since arisen. ~.;.

MONDAY A FTERNOON.--The arrival of Lord Glasgow's Deerslayer, and filly by Retainer, out of Purity, shortly after our last dispatch was forwarded, followed in the evening by very satisfactory entries for the Craven Stakes and the two Handicaps, have agreeably disap pointed our anticipations as to the amount of sport the week is likely to realise ; in particular, they made the bill of fare for this afternoon attractive beyond our hopes ; and admitting . the walk over for a race that of yore was one of the most interesting of the many great events decided at Newmarket, to have been a draw back to the regular visitors, gave considerable ec/at to the commencement of the season. The company, owing, no doubt, to•the extraordinary fineness of the weather, the holidays, and the special trains, if less . numerous than we have seen at many Craven Meetings, was more so than the comparatively unimportant .nature of the Stakes had led us to expect. Of the six events described below, two only were cal- HAMBURGH MAIL. FRANKFORT, MARCII 30.—A German Sovereign, who hitherto bore the Ducal title, intends, it is said, to assume that of Grand Duke. Negotiations on this subject were, it seems, opened some months ago with some German Courts, which were the more dis posed to recognise the new title, as States took an interest in it which do not belong to the German Confederation, to which the right of deciding apper tains. The revenues of the Sovereign in question are, besides, more considerable than those of some Princes of the Confederation who now bear the title of Grand Duke; and the extent and population of his territories, likewise, exceed those of some Grand Duchies. It can, therefore, be hardly doubted, that the proposed new title will be approved of. The object of Prince Albert's visit to Gotha is sup posed to be the regulation of family matters, especially the division of the private property left by his father, the late Duke. It is well known that the deceased was very economical, and since, as it is now affirmed, that sums paid by Prussia for the lordship of St. Wendel, on the left bank of the Rhine, which was ceded into it, went into the private coffers of the Duke, the amount of his property is stated at seve ral millions. WARSAW, MARCH 23.—Forei g n journals still re port that the Prince of Warsaw thinks of retiring from his high office. I any, however, able to state, on good authority, that he never had an idea of quitting a post in which he has succeeded, by hu manity and strict justice, in gaining the esteem and gratitude of all parties. The best-informed persons know to a certainty that the Emperor has never given even the slightest intimation of an intention to recal the Prince, who justly enjoys his entire confidence, and by his mild administration has gained more than ever could have been effected by rigour. The Pield-Marshal will not visit any foreign watering-places this summer, but immediately after Easter go, as he usually does every year, to St. Pe tersburgh, where he will make a considerable stay. FRANKFORT, MARCH 30.—His Highness the Duke of Nassau received, on Monday last, by an express, the intelligence that his brother, Prince Adolphus, would !not be able to be at Wiesbaden, to be present at the fetes, because, in a fit of just anger, he had shot a nobleman in Hungary, who, during a hunting party, in the Prince's presence, wantonly shot two of the Prince's servants. The Duke was deeply affected by this intelligence. MUNICH, MARCH 25.—We are sick of the affairs of Greece, and the Helleno-mania which was arti ficially produced is succeeded by a well-founded disgust with everything Greek. Bavaria has for many years made the greatest sacrifices of blood and treasure to a cause with which the people have no concern without deriving any advantage from it, which, in fact, no reflecting person ever expected. Yet it appears that further sacrifices are contemplated which, if they should be made, must render the Greek cause still more unpopular. Mach money has been sent from Bavaria to Greece; thousands of our coun trymen have there found an early grave, and the remnant of them . have returned home wretched and miserable, we may say, from exile. The Greek Go ' vernment is in - the most pressing financial distress. The protecting Powers have refused all further ap plications for pecuniary aid, as not even the interest on former loans has been paid._ But the King has now opened a negotiation with the house of Roths child to contract a loan to the amount of several mil lions of drachmas. This house, as we learn, from good authority, is not indisposed to accede to the _proposal, but it requires, as a condition, the assent of our Crown Prince, who holds his court at Bamburg. The Crown Prince appears to be of opinion that this SIGHT RESTORED!--NERVOUS HEAD-ACHE AND DEADNESS CURED! By the most simple, delightful, and fra rant Compound Its mode of application is fraught a ith pleasure; many thousand cures have been accomplished by its use, at a trilling expense, yet certain in its operation. If testimonies be necessary to induce the sufferer to nuke trial, Kings, Lords, and Commons have used it. The Lords of the 'I reasury have sanctioned its use. Their late Ma. cities, the Duchess of Kent, the most eminent Oculists, Medical Practitioners--with that gigantic balance, the Press—have eulogised Orimstone's celebrated Herbaceous Compound, known as " Grim stone's Eye Snuff" for its efficacy in remo v i ng all diseases incident to the Eyes and Head. G. J. Guthrie , Esq., F.R.S. See J. B. Lich field, Esq's Letter, Whitehall. 1)r. Thomas. 1)r. Andrews calls it a national blessing —see his Reports touching its utility. The late Mr. Abernethy, with many others, recommend Grimstone's Eye Snuff, and call it " Man's best Friend." and the "Student's Vade Mecum." See the many thousarni letters of Testimonies, of un doubted medical authority, with others of the first respectability. Nottingham, Aug. 29, le4l This extraordinary cure is attested by Mr. Jame: Wilcockson, Foreign Snuff nd Cigar Merchant, Nottingham. To Mr. W. Grimstonc. great pleasure in sen di ng you the part i culars of my case, and f d the ei miraculous cure performed on myself, by using your truly valuable Eye-Snuff. Sir, I am now in my ninety-third year, and a native of Holland, hare been in this country twenty-six years. Whether from change of climate, or my advanced age, I cannot say, but for six years I have been deprived of sight, there fore unable to follow my business. Ido most sincerely believe I should have remained in dareness and pain but for the kind morn mendation of a friend to use your invention. I purchased a 2s. 4d. canister of your Agent, Mr. Wilcockson, tobacconist, who Jcnews the above to be facts, and vril bear witness to my extraordinary recovery of that most inestimable blessing of our life—" Perfect Sight"—l declare has F roceeded from the use of your Eye Snuff.

The great foot-race for 401., between Samuel East, of Westminster, and Charles Winter,lof Hammer sm ith, t o walk ten miles, came off yesterday, at Bedfont, and we never remember to have witnessed a 'similar struggle in which the layers of the odds were more sadly disap pointed. Winter gave his opponent a:minute's start in the distance, in consequence of his known or presumed superiority, and hiS general rep u t e f or spe ed , a dd ed to the result o f his trial two or three days ago, induced those whe were best acquainted with his prowess to back him at 6 to 4. - The. , takers were not shy, as East had distinguithed himself In three or four inatehts against good men, and who was what might fairly be termed a rising pedestrian. Three thousand persons at least were congregated to witness the race ; and Butler, the pedes trian, having been appointed as referee for Winter, and Combes, the Thames Champion, for East, with other preliminaries adjusted,, the men took their places at the twelfth mile -stone, to walk - to the eleventh, and then turn. East started with his minute advantage, and then his opponent ; and within the course of the oldest man's experience. on that ground, a mile was never so con tested—it was the greatest thing on record. Winter followed his opponent at a most unusual speed, and at the conclusion of the mile East was mot more tht!i 150 yards a-head, Winter having completed it in 7 minutes 2.2-secands—butibe had-by-this extraordinary effort beat himself. He became irritable and languid, and at the next and each succeeding turn East went further a-head, and ultimately won.the match by five minutes, completing the ten miles in 1 hour 31 minutes 52 seconds. --- NEW HOUSES OF PARLIAMENT. The exhibition of cartoons, which last year attracted so many visitors to Westminster Hall, is about to be succeeded by another, of specimens of sculptures for the decoration of the new edifices, and we are glad to find 'that the competiti6n is not, as on the former occasion, to be left to the younger members of the profession. A 'great numbi r o f persons o f t h e h i ghest rank, including lthe Commissioners, have, last week, visited the studio of Mr. Lough, to view two clay models about to be cast for the above-mentioned purpose. The first is a magnificent group, representing an incident in the life of one of the heroic race of Planta genets —we believe Edward 111. The king has spurred his charger up a steep ascent, covered with heaps of the slain, to bestow the honour of knighthood on a soldier who had just taken &standard from the enemy, but received a mortal wound in so doing. The dying man is falling, sick and faint, into the arms of a companion, and though a gleam of joy passes across his face, it is evident that the voice of honour is breathed into ears that are fast becoming deaf to the pomps and glories of the world. The majestic figure of the king rises above the rest, his sword stretched out across the expiring 'warrior, his features elate with stern triumph, and seeming to look beyond the " igno rant present," to the glorious future, and to heed but little the sacrifices by which victory is to be purchased. From behind, another wounded man overcoming the intense suffering visible in every feature, has dragged himself forward to drink in, with almsst envious eager ness, the words that are to confer immortal renown on his fallen comrade. The second group, though perhaps less imposing on a first glance, as not including so many figures, and such variety of action and expression, affords a triumphant refutation of the charge of necessary coldness, so often brought against sculpture, or, at least, shows that it is in the power of true genius to mould all that is material to its purposes. A wifelas sought her husband on the field, after the battle, and discovered his senseless remains—guided, it would seem, by her recognition of his horse, who stands in a drooping attitude over the body of his master. The first agony of the discovery is over, and she is leaning her cheek in a passionate burst of grief against the face of the poor dumb mourner, who bends towards her in the mute sympathy which is the only consolation for a genuine sorrow. No one who has ever felt its power can fail to appreciate the pathos of this exquisite per formance, and the sudden gush of tears which it brought to the eyes of more than one spectator, was a higher compliment to the power that produced them, than any that words can furnish. The career of Mr. Lough has been a very different one from that of many of his brethren in the an, and his single-minded devotion to its noblest purposes is now reaping its slow but unfailing reward in the attainment of high excellence, and of the admiration so justly its due ; and we cannot but rejoice at the opportunity likely to be afforded him, on the present occasion, of becoming as well known to the great body of his countrymen as he has long been to the aristocratic patrons of art. COURT CIRCULAR. WINDSOR, MONDAY.—Her Majesty, accompanied by the Queen of the Belgians, took her accustomed early walk this morning in the vicinity of the Castle. Their Royal Highnesses the Princess Royal and the Princess Alice were taken for an airing this forenoon on the Terrace and in the grounds about the Castle.

Dispatches from the Earl of Elgin, Governor of Ja maica, and from the Governors of the other West India Colonies, were received yesterday at the Colonial-office. Dispatches were also received yesterday at the Colonial office froal the Governor of St. Helena. THE THAMES TUNNEL. — Yesterday, among other scenes of amusement and attraction provided for the Easter holiday folks, that wonderful achievement of art and perseverance, the Thames Tunnel, came in for its share. It was filled as on the anniversary fair, held on the 25th of last month. The decorations were precisely the same, and the numerous stalls were laid out with choice and tasteful :articles, exposed for sale. The. Tunnel was brilliantly illuminated. The whole excited the admiration of the vast multitnde who passed through during the day. BRIGHTON.—NARROW ESCAPE.—At about twelve o'clock on Friday night a Dutch East Indiaman ran foul of one of the Brighton mackerel boats, about twenty eight miles off Shoreham, and carried away her main mast, mizenmast, mainyard, and two lanthorns. There were five persons in the boat—Joseph Miles (master), and three other men and a boy. Immediately ihe boat was struck, Miles sprung to the Dutch vessel, and suc ceeded in getting hold of the bowsprit shrouds, and in a few minutes he was on board the Indianian. He re quested the captain to tack about and lower his boat to v t e h s e se c i a , p a ta n i d n p r oo du r s il eeither l l s o ato :' e er h t is he co b n e l a p t a n o r i o s n t s o b th u e t iles ed y th h o ear n t h f o o l r e the of t f h at e e m of h t away with them with aheav companions, fully expecting P erished.

The name of the barque which struck the boat was the Gother, Jacob Cederbey, master, and was bound for Harnhurgh. Damage to the amount of between 301. and 401. was done to the fishing-boat, and the owner, Mr. Andrews, intends to sue the owner of the Gother for compensation. A NEW NOVEL, BY THE AUTHORESS or " Tun HISTORY OF A FLIRT."—A more gratifying announce ment could hardly be made to the patrons of the circu lating libraries than that of a new work of fiction from the pen of the popular authoress of " The History of a Flirt"—" one of the best novels (as the Athentrum truly observes) that has for many years issued from the press." The title of the new work (which is to be published im mediately) is " The Wilfulness of Woman"—a theme which, in the clever hands of this attractive writer can, hardly fail of finding the most vivid and instructive illus tration, and at the same time of affording to her readers an equal amount of amusement, combined with that high moral purpose which is always to be found in the pro ductions of this authoress, and which has given them a value far above any others of their class.

HALSE'S SCORBUTIC DROPS. DECLARATION OF THE GUARDIANS OF BRENT, DEVON. We, the undersigned, solemnly declare that before Thomas no bins, one of our parishioners, comenccd taking " Halse's Scorbutic Drops," he was literally covered with large sunning wounds (some of them so large that a person might have laid his f in them) ; that before he had finished the first bottle he noticed an improvement, and that by continuing them far some time, he got completely restored to health, after everything else had failed. He had tried various sorts of medicines before taking" Halse's Scorbutic Drops," and had ;prescriptions from the most celebrated physician s in this country, without deriving the least benefit. "Halse's Scorbutic Drops;" have completely cured him, and he is now enabled to attend to his labour as well as any man in our parish. From other cures also made in this part, we strongly recommend " Halse's Scorbutic Drops" to the notice of the public.
