WEST INDIES.

-
The accounts generally from the West India Islands
are favourable as to the crops.
JAMAICA.—PROBABLE PRICE OF SUGAR. We
have already more than once directed attention to this inte-
resting subject ; and so far as experience has as yet gone, our
prognostications have been found to be pretty nearly correct.
During the ensuing season, it is not likely that sugar
will fall lower than an average—say
.of 30s. per cwt. in
bond; and had the past fruit season in the mother coun-
try been more favourable, it is not improbable that the
price might have ruled even a shilling higher. Lower, dur-
ing the period of the is. ditfertntial duty, it is certainly not
likely to go, as that would be to suppose that the present
price in the continen-al markets would fall, which under the
present circumstances is almost impossible. Thus, calculating
the prices on the continent for brown at 225., and yellow
25a, they will not be sold in Ragland under 435. and. 46..,
and our planters obviously need not sell similar qualities
under these rates, which leaves them 295. and 325., liable, of
course, to the various expenses of transit. The following,
with which we have been recently favoured, puts the matter
in a very clear light; and may be relied on, as the
opinion of a party capable, from his position, of arriving
at a just conclusion :—" Taking 50s. 6d. as the average
price of sugar it. the British market since the reduction of
the duties on British plantation sugar to 14.., it follows from
reference to actual sales, that 29.. ld. per cw t. has been the
price lately received by the producer on the average. Of
this price 9s. ld. has been the result of protection. which
take away, and (tither things remaining the same) 19s lOd.
will be the future price of sugar; thit is, the grower w,ll
receive nearly 10-22ds, say two thirds of the present price
only. Hence, to preserve the present ratio of profit (or los.)
the cost of production must he reduced 33 per cent or one-
third 1,1,w, in the year 1848, when the crop which we are
now about to plant will come to market, there will be afte
July 5 a protection of 4s. 6d., which will go to augment the
price of slave-grown niter just admitted to competition with
ours. For the last year foreign slave-grown sugar—say Porto
Rico, similar in quality with ours, brought, on the average,
145., but fur several years previous only 12a. could be ob-
tained for it, and at that riots it was found the the commo
dity could be profitably grown by slaves, and new lands
were continually brought under cultivation. Assuming, how-
ever, the price .o he 1a.., and addieg the differenticl duty o'
4s. Gd., it results that fork ign sitar will rule at 18s. 6.1. for
our quality in the British market, or come into coxpetition
with ours at :.bout the mice Blitidt plantation has been
valued at for the year commencing July 5 1818. If from
any cause foreign sugar advanc,•s lr-yond the e•timated price,
the price of British plantation will also be augmented in like
sum : tnel so, on the other hand, if the price of foreign sugar
recede to what it was in 1645, and pr.-cloudy, the price of
I British plantation will he lower than 18e. 641., or less than
two-thirds of the present price will be realised to the grower."

THE LEGISLATI/RE.—Three important faded, occupied
the attention of the Council of Government at their latest
electing on the 2nd of Nov. ;-1. A letter from the It. C.
Bebop Smith was laid before the board. The law in force
in the island recognises no successors in office to the bishop,
vicar apostolic; the consequence is, that the present incum
sat cannot establish a title to lands vested by donation in
his predecessor for charitable sand pious purposes. Again the
law attributes no right of property to the Catholic cures in
the vestments and plate used in celebrating divine service in
their churches. With regard to the plate and vestments, a
prisoner, tried some time ago, got off, though proved to have
stolen articles from a Roman Catholic church, because it
could not be proved to whom the property belonged. A com-
mittee was appointed to report on Dr. Smith'', application.
2. Public Offices.—At present Mr. Lacoste holds the
offioes of master of the supreme court, registrar of deeds,
and taxador, at a salary of 8001., with 2001. for clerks in
the Registry-office, 1501. for a clerk in the Master's-office,
and 601. fur stationery—in all 1,2101. Capt. Chapter, the
government engineer, receives 36. W. Mr. Bridgens, super-
intendent of public works, 3001., and 201. for stationery. The
expenditure of the Commissary of Population's Office is—
Mr. Sorzano, commissary r f population, 2501. ; Mr. M. &w-
-ean°, assistant, 1501.: and for stationery for the office, 20/.
—in all for this office, 4201. The total charge for the several
offices being. 2,31.51. sterling per annum. The interests of the
colony require that the offices should Le differently organised,
and that the strength of some of them should be in-
creased. The report of a committee on this matter was
presented, which recommends:—That the office of master
under the supreme court and taxador be separated from that
of registrar, and that the salary and office expenses of the
master and taxador be fixed at 9601. per annum. That an
officer to be called registrar-general, be appointed, to register
and have the custody of deeds, register births, deaths, and
main iges, and take charge of censuses and the collection of
island statistics ; his salary and office expenses 7301. per
annum. That a " board of works "be instituted, consisting
of a colonial engineer, colonial surveyor, and assistant sur-
veyor and clerk ; salaries and office expenses 1,410/. per
annum. That the preseut offices not included in this arrange-
ment be abolished. The attorney-general is to move the
adoptian of the report at the next general meeting of the
council. 3. The attorney-general moved that the bounties on
inter-colonial immigration do cease and determine on the
sth of May next. Mr. Burnley moved as an amendment,
after the word " That" to strike out all that follows, and insert
" That the members of the legislative council unfeignedly
thank his excellency the governor for the communication con-
tained in his message graciously addressed to them at their
hest meeting. They are at all times disposed respectfully to
attend to any directions emanating from her Majesty's
Secretary of State for the Colonies, and whenever they are
made acquainted with the r, scone and motives which have
induced the Secretary of State to disapprove of the policy of
inter-colonial immigration, which was duly and deliberately
considered by his predecessors in office, before it met their
decided sanction and approval, and which throughout a
period of seven years has been found to work advantageously
es well fur the interests of the labourers introduced as for the
inhabitants of this colony, they will immediately take the
same into their serious consideration, with the view of meet-
ing, if practicable, the Secretary of State's wishes."—On
taking the vote, Mr. Burnley's amendment was lost by 6
votes to 4. A technical objection was taken by the chief
justice to the motion of the attorney-general, who with-
drew it in consequence.—The governor then communicated
a despatch from the colonial minister, intimating the inten-
tion of ministers to facilitate the immigration of free
labourers from Africa.
lMsetGlt tTlON.—Within the short space of a week there
had been two arrivals of emigrants from 'Madeira, 160 by
the Peru and 216 by the Dalhousie. They were of all ages,
equally proportioned as to sex ; and all followers of Dr.
Kelley.
GUIANA.—THE LEGISLATUME.—Art ordinance
was passed by the Court of Policy on the 13th of November,
"for regulating the rights, duties, and relations of servants
and employers in British Guiana." It is of course subject to
the approval of the home government. Its most important
clause is thus described by the Royal Gazette:
"Our readers are aware that permission was some time ago grsnted
in general terms by the home government, for the introduction of
labourers into the colony from all hearts of the world, except Africa
ant Asia, under contracts to serve with the imparters for three years.
The present ordinance gives effect to that permitision. The 12th sec-
tion declares that contracts, provided they be reduced into writing,
and signed by the intending emigrant. in the presence of a notary
public or British consul,—whose signature to the contracts is also
required,—may be made out of the HEIR! of the colony, for terms of
service to ante for threeyears from the date of landing in the colony,
with any inhabitants of the continent or islands of Europe, the con-
tinent or islands of America, the Anwes. Muleira, the Canaries, and
the tape de Verd Islands ; or MICII contracts with such parties
sad r such terms may he made on their Loading in the colony, by
writing, before a special justice of the peace. The signature or seal
of the notary pablie or consul proves itself here in all courts; but
the wilful tendering in evidenee of a false contract is felony. ftew-
ever, there are restrictions to these contracts. An immigrant so
introduced can, if be please, on giving one month's notice and paying
the expenses incurred in conveying him to the colony, caned any such
written contract at any time after six months' service. The immigrant
also on his arrival can have the option of claiming the current rate of
wages in the colony, instead of any rate for which he may have stipu-
lated in his contract. reasons IRCeleillg away servants are matte
liable for each offence to a tine of 45 dollars, together with discre-
tionary damages at the pleasure of the court.
By another clause all hirings entered into with newly-
arrived immigrants are presumed to be for six months.
TRIALS FOR SEDITION.--The Guiana Royal Gazette
states :
The Supreme Criminal Court for the two counties of Demerara and
Essequibo, will be held on Monday next riXov. 23.] The calendar is
rather heavy. Some intereq will attach to the session in consequence
of indictments, at the instance of the crown, having been sorrel on
time parties —the liev. E. A. Wallbridge, a clergyman belonging to
the London Missionary Society ; Mr. J. Alters ; and Mr. J. Emery;
for the writing and publication of seditious libels, in some recent num-
bers of a local print veiled Emery's Journal.
WINDWARD ISLANDS.—BIRBADOES LECIS-
LATUILE.--The House of Assembly met on the 'l3rd of No-
vember, pursuant to adjournment. Messrs. Gooding anal
Blades took their seats fur St. Philip.—Mr. Preseod brought
to the notice of the house the death of a woman named
Nancy Ann King, and the circumstances attending her
death, as detailed by witnesses, who appeared before the
coroner's inquest, and moved that a respectful address be
prepared and forwarded to his excellency, requesting him to
lay before the house a copy of the inquisition. It was agreed
to.—The greater part of the rest of the sitting was taken up
with a spirited discrisaion on the legality of the last election.
Messrs. Prescod and loniss argued that his excellency the
governor had acted illegally is Issuing the writs at the time
he did ; and the former concluded by moving that the house
resolve itself into a committee for considering the matter.—
The Attorney and Solicitor General and Mr. Grant con-
tended that his excellency acted quite consistently with the
I law ; their opinion prevailed, and Mr. Prescod'a motion was
lost.—The house adjourned to Tuesday the Ist of December.
FALKLAND ISLANI)S.—By the Trafalgar
transport, arrived at Spithesul, there is intelligence from
these islands to the 19th of September. Its report of the
state of Faiths there is discouraging. There were about
100 inhabitants on the island. Most of the emigrants were
employed by government in making roads, at Of. to Gs per
day. The sheep had nearly all perished. No vegetables
were reared on the settlement. General discontent pervaded
the settlement, and had turned itself against the governor.
HONDURAS.—We have elsewhere reprinted
from the Daily Noes a statement and comments on a late
criminal investigation at Honduras. Was it a matter of
accident that we ourselves received no Honduras fife by the
last mail ? The daily journals give but a very cursory glance
over colonial pipers but such a serious investigation was
sure not to have escaped our more painstaking eyes. We have
but to express our satisfaction that the attention of our able
contemporary happened to fall on the Honduras Obserrer.
—Colonial Gazette. [Our account of the proceedings at
Honduras, as will appear from consulting the file, was partly
taken from the Honduras Oiserrer, but was also in part a
private communication- We give " but a cursory glance "
over colonial papers.)

ELECTION OF COMMON COUNCILMIN.„
WAYDSIUTES.
Yesterday, being St. 'llomas's-day, the
wards in the city proceeded to the elevion of Co
nue ,
Councilmen for the ensuing year. The corn-law euer.
which formed the principal subject of eiscussion at
meetings lent yeer, was -replaced oe the present occaeoe
the more locally interesting dispute between the CoerCe
Aldermen and the members of the Common Ceuneil, on
subject of the Freemen's Qualification Bill. le
every wardmote the members of the lower court took
opportunity to lectere the priesiding aldermen for their
willingness to support the bill, and at one or two mot,
the aldermen objected to put resolutions on the ee°
placed in their hands for that purpose. ite

Mr. GODSON, in answer to the charge, stated that be hie
never been asked for his presentation by any individuals

it to the child of a gentleman of independent property, a
more than one instance, but he rejected the solicitations, and
bestowed it where he knew well it was wanted, and am I
great source of relief and comfort. He then defended the
Court of Aldermen from the charge of haying lavishly or
improperly expended the City money, and asserted that the
Court of Common Council expended two or three times *
much in dinners as had been distributed in charity and bene-
volence by the other body.
All the old members were then unanimously returned,
and the proceedings terminated, amidst cheers. with the tole
