JAMAICA.

COMMERCIALLY IMPORTANT.—The Editors of the Balti-
more American have been politely favoured with an extract of a
letter, received by the schooner John, at Wilmington, North Caro.
lina, dated
" KINGSTON, JUNE 2il, 1826.
" We missed the opportunity of forwarding the annexed by the
brig America:—Since the date of our last, a circumstance has oc.
rutted which will rause great inconvenience to the trade of the
Wand. The Comn.issionera of Customs have forwanhAl instruc.
Lions by the last packet to the several Collectors to collect the duties
on articles subject to the same, and the island acts authorize the
Receiver General to collect the same, so that at the present time all
articles are subject to pay double duties. It is a question between
the British Government and the Colonial Legislature—th y say
you shall pay the salaries of the different officers and other inci-
dental charges. The question will be brought forward immediately
on the meeting of the House of Assembly in September, and there
it no doubt but that the duties will be refunded. In the mean ime,
however, all vessels arriving will be obliged to pay the double
duties. This, we consider, will prevent many from engaging in the
trade until the question is decided, and by that means leave an
opening for some advantageous speculations. The Collector's
orders are to hold over one.fourth of the duties, and to pay the re.
mainder over to the Receiver General quarterly. Cargoes arriving
now it would be advisable to bond until a sale could be eirmed."

SAILING :NIATCII.
Yesterday being the day appointed for the sailing•match for a
silver cup and cover, given by the friends of Mr. Gosling, of the
Swan, Battersea. the river was in consequence crowded wilt cutter•,
wherries. and all tLetaiptions of boats, to witness the mach. Upon
the whole, It was a most ill-contrived match ; and from the state
of the wind, and the time of sailing, it was impossible any decision
could take place. The publicans, we believe, are the only persons
satisfied with the proceedings of yesterday.

IVe arc authorized to say that the Lord Bishop of Ches-
ter (not being able to attend at any other time) has thtli

David, at the bottom of lirownlow-hill. This Church,
we are informed, is to be erected by voluntary subscrip-

to accommodate them with free sittings, and sittings at a

DREADFUL CATASTROPHE ON THE RIVLE.

A gentleman, who came passenger in the Ron Accord, fro-r,
Sheerness, on Sunday, reports the following particulars l't a cat;
strophe, which it is feared has involved the lon of many lives.'
Thollori Accord, a sailing packet, which plies between London and
Sheerness, left the letter place on Sunday morning, and Teethed
Blackwell between eleven and twelve o'clock. The night beinc un.
commonly dark, and a brisk gale blowing from the m.s,W; di.
reedy ahead, she made but little way afterward*. Within alitut
three-quarters of a league of Blackwell Reach she was run foul of
by a amall.decked vessel, which was making tack a-head, and the
packet's boom ran through her main-sail ; the smack then swerit
round, planing alongside, and dropped astern; at the same nunter
a large brig passed under the stern of the packet, and, con,i,l;
full upon the smack, sem her to the bottom. The crew and pas.
sengers of the Bon Accord could distinctly hear the shock produced
by the coneusFion of the two vessels, and a piercing shriek linen the
sufferers of " Lord have mercy upon us !" announced their fate.
The brig bore away on her tack, it being then impossible to
round to aid the drowning people. The 800 A cconl made aileron
to tack about, but without effect, as the wind had then shitted
round, and not a vestige of the smack could be distinguished above
the surface of the water. They were therefore compelled, however
reluctantly, to abandon an attempt every way so hopeless, and wr_
secute their course. The Bonicaro reached the 'rower main a6ut
one o'clock In the morning. It is impossible as yet to calculate the
extent of this terrible misfortune. It seems that no blame can at.
tech to the people of the brig, for at the time she bore down it vas
impossible to see the smack, which was then foul of the packet, sad,
dropping astern so precipitately, she crossed the tack of the brig
which had cleared the stern of the lion Accord. To-morrow will cs.
doubt supply more information on this melancholy subject. The
name of the brig was not known.

CASES OF SLANDER.

The following curious decisions, which are to be found
among the adjudged cases on the suliject of *Under, rhos/
how extremely tender the law has always been of any 4.

opinion, that if C. had no hull, the scandal was Me greater.
And it was pronounced per curiam in the same case, that
to say of a lawyer, that he has no more law thah a goose,
has been adjudged actionable.—Sid. 127, pl. 8. There it

flow greatly have the channels of justice been purifiki
since this period! Our enlightened Judges of the prevent

would rise his reputation by even v.eferrin;; to them

rest, and were detet mined with quit gravity.

GROVE V. RICUARIM

It will be recollected that last Tuesday a motion was made be-
fore the Court upon an affidavit of the Warden of the Fleet, which
set forth that the defendant was supersodable, and had received
notice to quit the Fleet Prison ; but that owing t the collusion.
as it was supposed, of another prisoner and a solicitor, a detainer
had been lodged against the defendant for the sum of 3001. The
Lord Chief Justice then inquired who was the Solicitor, and being
informed that it was a Mr. Brewer, his Lordship ordered: a rule to
be served on the plaintiff, the defendant, and Mr. Brewer.
Ile. Sergeant VAUGHAN, so fat as respected Mr. Brewer,
allowed cause to.day against the rule. It appeared from this gen-
tleman's affidavit, that though his name had been used in the pro-
cess, it was wholly without his consent or knowledge. lie had
never transacted any business with the parties, and knew nothing
of them up to the moment of receiving the rule.
The Co uRT considered that Mr. Brewer had wholly exculpated
himself, and ordered that part of the rule which related to him to
be discharged. That which referred to the plaintiff cad defendant
was made absolute, they having neglected to show cause.-
Mr. Sergeant VauctuAN feared he could not ask their Lordships
for the coats of this application
The Lotto CHIEI JUSTICE thought not. It would be very
hard to make the Warden pay them. His Lordship said he had
revived a letter, complaining of the Warden's conduct, and an in-
quiry had, in consequence, been instituted through the medium of
one of the °Steers of the Court (Mr. Griffiths), the result of which
afforded sestimony the most satisfactory as to the M'ardeu's
character. _ _

Mr. O'Connell was frequently cheered throughout his speech.
He next spoke highly of blr. Plunkett, for his excellent disposition
to cave the Catholic", and although he regretted he could not
prase hint as he would wish, yet he would willingly bestow
upon him the praise he deserted. In his intercourse with him lie
found Mr. Plunkett warm-hearted, affectionate, and kind.

MASQUERADE AT THE ARGYLL ROOMS.

A maAuerade was given last night at thelArgyll Rooms,
wnich was remarkably well attended. As a nation the
English are not deficient in the talent for delineating, that
species of amusement called humour, and possess in a high
degree the capacity for enjoying it ; but there is something
so milt; so downright, in the charaitcr of an Englishman,
that be is never happy when he assumes that indefatigable
vivacity which distinguishes our more mercurial migh-
hours.
This in truth is the secret that gives such an in-
describable charm to masquerades in other countries, and
this alone was wanted to render the entertainment of last
night as brilliant and animated as it was possible. The
rooms were decorated with great taste and elegance;
there was abundance of music, tolerably good as to its
quality ; and last, not least, there was no scarcity of
Mr. Charles IVright's sparkling champaigne, which,
unlike many other of famous things, is fairly entitled to
the celebrity it has acquired. The characters w...re
numerous, but not very distinguished. There were serial
Ancera and earthly.figuranter, clowns, harlequins, sailors,
gipsies, and huntsmen, old women and lots of young ones.
Tho most striking personage of the motley group was Za-
miel. the Black Huntsman, who was in his way a most ex-
quisite monster. The night passed off, if not spiritedly
at least agreeably, and at an advanced hour of the morn-
ing many were still unwearied, and continued enjoying
the gayety of the scene.

KING'S THEATRE?.

After a.series of Opere Serie, in which Madame Pasta
has both astonished anti delighted us by the gradual and
complete development of her unrivalled powers, some-
thing new, in the shape of a lively performance, has been
found necessary, to unbend our minds as it were, and re-
lieve them from the fatigues of incessant and intense ad-
miration. Rossini's Opera, La Cener.tdola, was fixed
upon for that purpose, and carne out last night for the
first time this season. The principal characters in it
were supported by Mesdames Bonnini, Carnal, and De
Angeli ; and Signori De Beguis, Pellegrini, Torsi, and
Deville. The incidents of this piece are too well known to
need here any. repetition, having been dramatized in all
possible theatrical shapes; so far, therefore, they have not
even that share of novelty which their representation in
this opera, after a lapse of sotne years, might have left
them. The music, however, not having been suffered to
become too familiar to our ears, and being of Rossini's
comp-sition, claimed no small share of' interest. It has
been said that it is the favourite production of that pro-
lific writer; we must beg, however, to diffet so far from
his taste in this respect, as to be of opinion that it is
among the moat inferior of those of his compo.sitioll3 which
are now in vogue throughout Europe. It contains, to be
sure, a good deal of very spirited and pleasing music; but
with the exception of the last air, sung by Ceneren-
tda, " Nacqui all'afrano," there is nothing in it that is
calculated to leave any impression on the mind—nothing
of a decided character. The composer's style is very per-
ceptible from the beginning to the end, and several in-
stances occur of the most barefaced plagiarism from his
other productions. We should imagine, from all this,
that the Cenercniola was written with very great haste and
carelessness, and we believe, in fact, that originally it was
only destined to answer a temporary purpose. De Bennis
was exceedingly comic in the character of Don Magnifico,
and was the very soul of the performance. His talents as a
Bvp, are so eminent that we cannot but regret that he
has not more frequent opportunities of exerting them.
The scene between him and Dandini (Pellegrini), in
which the Baron is made acquainted with Dandini's dis-
guise, and with his real character of a valet, was extremely
amusing, and excited a good deal of merriment among the
audience. The applause which followed it was very gene-
ral, and lasted several minutes. Torsi sang with a ood
deal of taste. Mademoiselle Bonnini and Madame Cas-
telli, both sang and played as well as their respective parts
would allow them. The house was much more crowded
than we had reason to expect it would be. After the opera,
the ballet entitled Le Marriage Secret was given for the
second time this season, and it is to be hoped that it will
he henceforward repeated in preference to those with which
we have been so much satiated of late, until a new one is
ready to be produced.

VA CX WALL GARDENS.

Monday evening was the•first of the season that afforded
a fair opportunity of duly appreciating the improvements
of Vauxhall. The night was calm and mild—the com-
pany gay, agreeable; and, to the satisfaction of the enter-
prismg proprietors, we are glad toadd, very fashionable and
very numerous. And what more can be raquircd to
render Vauxhall a place of delightful pastime on a Sum-
mer's night? We should answer—Nothing, were it not
that all these recommendations were heightened by the va-
ried contribution of eminent vocal talent, which the pro-
prietors have arrayed before the public, to entitle them
amply to public admiration, support, and patronage. The
wetness of the weather may he truly said to have thrown
a damp over the gaiety of Vauxhall during the last week ;
but on Monday night, the fineness of the weather, the bril-
liant and fashionable throng that attended, and the whole
arrangements of the evening, made it the most agreeable
we have for some summers enjoyed. May such merito-
rious exertion on the part of the proprietary always com-
mand such corresponding support from the public !

lA(STRESS in SPITA ELDS.—At a SPECIAL
31 EETING of the COM M ITTEE, held at the Rectory.
house, Bishopseate, March 30, 1826,
The Lord Bishop of CHESTER in the (lisle.
It was resolved that the following Statement should be submitted
to the Public :
The Committee who have been entrusted with the distribution
of the money subscribed for the relief of the distressed Silk
Weavers in SpitaMelds. have now the painful task of announcing
to the public, that while the funds placed at their disposal are very
nearly exhausted, the distress which they were intended to relieve
remains undiminished in extent and severity ; in point of fact, it
may be said to have increased, for the relief which the Committee
has been able to allow to persons with families, has been so small
as barely to support them, and that but scantily, with the nem.
stoles of life, leaving no provision for the payment of rent, or of
debts, contracted under the pressure of distress, before the com-
mencement of the subscription.
About seven hundred persons who have received relief, have
now obtained a small portion of work ; but their places have been
more than supplied by those who were at work, and are now wholly
out of employ.
The Committee have now been sitting every day (Sundays ex.
center%) since the 31st of January, in the Vestry-room at Spiral-
fields Church, distributing relief ; and nearly sixteen thousand per.
sons have been supported during the whole of that time, and are
still supported entirely, upon the scanty pittance which they have
received from this source. The balance now remaining in the
Treasurer's hands does not amount to the sum required for one
week's distribution.
Under these circumstances, the Committee feel it their duty to
make an earnest appeal to the benevolence of those whom Pros
dence has blessed with the means of mitigating the distresses of
their fellow-creatures; and persuade themselves that die foregoing
simple and unexaggerated statement will produce such an addition
to their funds, as may prevent the sudden drying up of those
sources to which so many thousand poor persons have to look for
the means of existence.
