WEST INDIES.

By the arrival of the West India intereolonial mail
steamer Eagle, which reached at Southampton on
Saturday, aid which has come home for repairs, we
have intelligence front some part of the West Indies
of a later date than that brought by the Trent.
In cone gitence of the negro revolt at St. Croix, the
King of Denmark had ordered M. Hansen, late Go-
Tenor of the East Indio Danish settlements, to pro-
ceed to the Danish West Indies, to re-organise the
government of the island.
He was to ratify the emancipation of the slaves,
and to make sugges'ious for simplifying the adminie-
testiest of the govern:dent of the Danish posesseione,and
for reducing the number of officials and their salaries,
so far u circumstances would permit; in tact for *general
re-organisation of the colonial government. He was
also to investigate, in conjunction with the judicial
fenetinsary who was to accompany him, the conduct
of the late Governor-General and his subordinates,

with referent* to the insurrection. A brig of
war, with a military force of 400 men, was to accom-
pany him to enforce his authority. All reports and
suggestions appertainieg to every branch of the
service belonging to the colonial administration, were
to be sent in future to the Minister of Commerce, in-
stead of to the respective boards, and the Millie'r
was not to dec•de on anything without previous
arrangements with the ministry.

TDB QUARANTINE REGULATIONS IN TIIE PENIN-

stica.—The Times stated last week that the quarantine re-
gulation. in the peninsula would be likely to delay the re-
turn of the mail packets to this country. We are authorised
to stare that there is not the slightest apprehension that such
will be the ease. The mails, after they have been fumigated,
will be delivered to the proper authoritkm, through the
health officers. Pemengin and merchandise will be
transhipped into the quarantine and lanatetto vessels, end
the packets will primed frees putt to lc rt as sand. The in-
convenience, and it will be very great, will be solely confined
to outward pamengera end the consignees of merehanlise.
ClinuaA.—The Board of Health report, on Satur-
day, six new case •of cholera, and three deaths. Two of the

Edisburgh and Leith, 17 new came have occurred, seven of
them being fetal.

ABUSES IN CHARITABLE MOCIETIBIL—Sir.—Your
partial exposure and promised development of the principles
of management of oar leaning charitable societies is a move
in advance for the Mlle of charity, which will ensure to you
the gratitude both of the recipients sad of the contributors.
1 have for many yeses subscribed to some of the chief insti-
tution in London—to the St. Anne's Society among the
number, in which latter many of my family have also token
an. interest. lam sot surprised, airflow', at the meant
which you have OM of its expenses, sad its inaccuracies.
The merman receives 3001 per anima out of the 7271. 10s.,
foe saltrim and gratuities, for his very superficial services—
that they are superficial you can readily inter. He is a pm-
tieing ; he is secret ry to a file insurance society—a
poet of itself, one would„thiik, requiring the whole of his
minion for its proper guidance ; he is, moreover, secretary
to the City of London Trade Protection &misty ; and besides
them occupation. he is ea the committee of at least three or
roar other benevolent societies. Now, I ask, is it righteous
—is it proper—that 3001. per animus should be paid to this
gentleman by a charity for the saainteardice of from 200 to
300 orphan children t Tne recurrence of the tome names in
the management of the several societies to which the secre-
tary belongs, is • fact not to be overlooked. The inquiry
which you have originated cannot fail to enlarge and ad-
vase.. the Jeweils of true charity.—Pl Ito Jcariri.t, Brix-
