LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, WEDNE!DAy,—We have
had a great market to-day, without,;however, any altetation
in prices. The sales are 1,500 bags of all descriptions.
Extract of a letter from Glasgow received at the North
and South Amer:can Coffee fleuse :—" I find it im-
possible to get any ieformation about the British Queen.
Mr. Napier is at Pert GUtsgow to-day, getting up the
steam for the first time.. I understand they are making
a hard push to get her ready by Thursday, to leave the
Clyde if they can any day his week."
We have received Jamaica papers to the 15:h of May.
THE. WEATHER.--".For nearly three mon•hs," says a
Montego Bay paper, " we Intve scarcely b en visited by a
single shower of rain, and the grass has become withered
in the pastures, and in many places where the soil is thin
fairly burnt out of the ground. During the last fortnight,
however, we have had some refreshing showers, which
have spread a delightful verdure over the land, and the
few young cane plants, as well as provisions, will be greatly
benefited by this timely acquisition to their nourishment,
This, by the old agriculturists, is called the tegular May
season, which, if all things were not under the Bap'ist's
curse, would have given seed to the sewer and bread to
the reaper; but alas! poor Jamaica must still remain to
contemplate eith patience the failing off of her next crop,
,then we may be obliged to say better half a loaf than
no bread.'
There is little to glean from the papers by the post;
the must prominent subject, irrespective of the question of
the working and non-working of the system, is the pre-
sentation of a piece of plate to Mr. Manderson, at
Montego Illy,
ST. CHRISTOPHER.—.The Gazette and Courier of this
island states that the removal of the Lieutenant-Governor,
Sir Thomas M•Leed, to Trinidad has caused general re-
gret. We are truly concerned to announce that Lady
Colesbrooke is suffering from a severe fall from her
horse, but by the last accounts her Ladyship is said to be
recovering.
We have received Port of Spain papers
.to the Bth of
May- A country correspondent informs us that the crop
of sugar epee many of the estates in St. James's parish
;sill fall considerably shorter than was first expected. Upon
one of these estates, where the crop is closed, only fourteen
hogsheeds of sugar have been made from sixty acres of first,
and 200 acres of second crop caner, and on another five
hogsheads only hove been made from forty-five acres of
first crop canes ; the cause of tilt great falling off is not
however assigned, so that conjectures must be busy until
sane cogent reason shall be given for the deficiency.
ST. VINCENT.--The present crop would have been
large, as it was established under the Apprenticeship
system, and the weather has been most favourable since
the Ist of August, but frOm nezlected cultivation, it is
expected to fall short one-fourth what. it would have been.
Future Crop—about one half of the sugar manufactured
in 1833 may be expected to be made in 1840.
Belleau -Guteea.—Our usual files bav6 been received
by the packet, and the accounts arc most desponding. The
country is stated to be absolutely scorched under the pro-
tracted and intense drought, and that in town and country
the want of whole-some water was, telt with great severity.
All the markets were ill supplied, and provisions scarce.
Regret is expressed at the importation of the coolies into
the Colony. An awful mortality prevails among the troops;
Ten thousand of the emancipated apprentices are repre-
sented as wandering about the country in idleness, refusing
to work.
Demerara Papers to the 9 h of May have been received,
from which the f”llowing are extracts :
‘‘.l3y a statement of the Receiver-General, it appears
there are now in the Colonial Chest 250,393 dollars; c
course there v.i3 be much to pay out of this large sum.
" But a few words are necessary for an accurate account
of British :Guiana.
" The ,ivhole order of soci, ty is reversed ; the dependent
men are those who have money, but want labourers. The
labourers are the people on whose side every possible ad-
vantage lies ; already some poor owners of land have
fallen upon desperate and destructive means of temporary.
relief.
" The rain that has fallen has been a grateful boon to
the inhabitants of the town; in the country its effects have
been limited, the ground and crops have been too severely
scorched." •
Barbadoes papers have been received to the sth May,
from WhiCh we extract the following :
"It is positively stated abroad that Mr. Cunningham,
Colon:al Secretary of this island, is to have the Lieut.-
Governorship of St. Kitt's.
" Planters are all making their bargains for sugar now
in dollars, and most of the storekeepers render their ac-
counts in dollars. Owners of houses will doubtless make
their rents payable in future in dollars."
