WEST INDIA AND PACIFIC MAILS.

SOUTHAMPTON, Tuesday Evening.—By the Royal
mail steam-ship Atrato, Cipt. Baynton, we receive
dates from Greytown, Oct. 17th • Carthagena,
26th ; Jamaica, 27th • Demerara, 25th ; Trinidad,
25th ; Barbadoes, 27th ; St. Lucia, 27th ; Antigua,
29th ; and St. Thomas's, 31st.
The Atrato brings 45 passengers and eight dis-
tressed British seamen. On freight there is specie
valued at $834,708; plata pina, $2,100; jewellery
and precious stones $2,418 ; 354 ounces of old
silver, and a cargo, consisting of cochineal, bark,
sarsaparilla, &c.
During the voyage the Atrato, on the 6th inst.,
in lat. 38.51 N., long. 49.12 W., spoke the brigan-
tine Star, 16 days from Newfoundland, bound to
Trinidad ; on the 12th, in lat. 48.47 N., long.
11.41 W., exchanged colours with a Hamburg ship
showing No. 282, with emigrants, steering to the
westward ; also, in lat. 48.54 N., spoke the Eng-
lish schooner Rose, steering to the eastward ; also
exchanged colours with the British bark Agnes, and
on the 13th passed the English screw-steamer Ot-
tawa and the Peninsular mail steam-ship Tagus ;
all steering east.
The Royal mail steam-ship Dee arrived out at
St. Thomas on the 24th ult.
At Jamaica the House of Assembly was in session.
The flour-market was active, and one speculator
had purchased nearly the whole stock at 465. Flour
was being held at 48s. to 50s. In corn there was
no inquiry, and holders were willing to take low
rates. Some small lots of sugar had been sold
at 225.
Exchange was quoted, for bills at 90 days, 1 per
cent, premium.
At Barbadoes the weather was highly favourable
for agricultural operations. Trade continued lan-
guid.

- The following is a complete return of the late
crop, including the portion of the cargo of the brigs
Sarah (burnt) and Now City of Cork (lost in the
gale of the 24th of August) :
Sugar.-37,652 hhds., 2,232 tierces, 6,505 brls.,
equal to 39,953 hhds. shipped, the lccal consump-
tion being estimated at 4,000 hhds.
Molasses.-12,371 puncheons, 204 hhds., 471
barrels, equal to 12,590 puncheons.
Rum, 1,178 puncheons, 612 hogsheads.
Cotton, 371 bales.
Aloes, 1,025 gourds.
At Grenada a great quantity of rain had fallen,
and great injury had been done to the roads.
The intelligence from this island is entirely de-
void of interest.

At St. Lucia and other West India Islands great
rejoicings had taken place, in commemoration of
the success of the allies in the Crimea.
The exports of produce for 1855 closed as follows :
—Sugar, 4,656 hogsheads, 255 tierces, 2,250 brls. ;
molasses, 855 puns., 14 tierces, 31 brls. ; rum, 2
pipes, 230 puns , 132 hhds., 33 quarter casks ;
cocoa, 3 casks, 45 brls., 1,371 bags ' • logwood,
1,1011 tons ; hides, 865 ; cedar boards, 49 ; coffee,
2 brls. and 7 bags, &c. The growing canes looked
healthy, and there is every probability of a good
crop. The weather was rainy, and the island
healthy.

At British Guiana the new Harbour Regulation
Bill had passed. The subject of the water supply
and drainage was occupying attention.
The weather was fine, and all the estates were
busily engaged in making sugar. The canes for the
next year's crop looked well.

The exports from the colony during the last fort.
night have been as follows :—Sugar, 0,232 Mids.,
136 tierces, 576 bris., 3 half-brls., 773 bags ; mo-
lasses, 359 puns., 10 hhds., 16 brls ; rum, 1,664
puns., 292 hhds., 119 brls. ; coffee, 1 brl. ; cocoa-
nuts, 9,900 ; rice, 500 bags ; salted hides, 400 ;
greenheart timber, 322 logs ; bark, 14 tierces, 50
barrels ; iron (old), 50 tons ; copper (old), 2 tons ;
pewter, 1i tons.
Tonnage was becoming more scarce, and freights

At Trinidad matters were dull, and the weather
very hot.

The Pacific mail steam-ship New Grenada had
arrived at Panama with 42 passengers, 497,000
dollars in specie, and dates from Valparaiso, Sept.
29, and Calloa, Oct. H.
At Chili Congress was adjourned ; there was a
great depression in commercial matters ; copper
was very scarce. From Bolivia we learn that
scarcely had Belzu loft before revolutionary move-
ments broke out in various places. On the 16th
of September Colonel Gutierrez, Dr. Tapia, Gen.
Lanza, and Colonels Montalvo, Yanes, Marin, and
many others raised the revolutionary standard in
Pucanori. General Molena, with a force of about
100 men and 2 guns, marched to attack the revo-
lutionists, but Lanza, hearing of his approach, left
the town ; he was, however, afterwards met by the
Government forces, and Zapata and Moscoso, two
of the revolutionary leaders, were killed.
In Corocoro Dr. Linares and others also got up
a revolutionary movement, but it was put down by
the National Guard, and the arrival of the cavalry
who had accompanied Belzu to the coast. Linares
and the other leaders escaped. Some of the perio-
dicals of La Paz state that the revolution is quite
put down in the north, but in Oruro, Cochleanba,
Santa Cruz, and La Sierra all was not yet quiet.
In Peru the Convention still continued in ses-
sion. The question of religious toleration was
exciting great interest. The press complains of
the disorganised state of affairs at the Chincha
Islands, and the insubordination of the labourers.
Letters had been received from the gold-hunting
party who started for the Amazons under the au-
spices of Government ; they had experienced many
hardships. Gold was found by the Indians in the
neighbourhood of Pancartumbo ; it is described as
similar to the gold of Australia.
By way of Callao we receive Australian intelli-
gence to the 18th of August. The political news
is not important. Flour had fallen. The demand
for gold exceeded the supply.
Her Majesty's ship Espiegle sailed from Ja-
maica on the 24th ult. for Bermuda, to assist in a
court-martial to be held on the captain and officers
of the lost ship Wolverine.
The crew of the Termagant, lying at Jamaica,
had all got the fever, and had lost one man.
