Have the 'contingent expences of sugar estate:, in.
cc rred Within the Island say for takes, white ruen's
salaries, hired labour, fresh provisions, cattle, mules,
and Itiniber; been progressively increasing within the
last twenty years ?—They certainly haVe 'increased
Very much.
Can you state at the interval of 'twenty, fifteen',
tin, and five years sgo, the l races or amount of the
principal of those. items, on any given size of estate
--I cannot particularly at those times, but within
the last twenty 'years, working, mottle have arisen
'from twelve and fifteen pounds, to forty-five pounds,
and sometimes askhigh as dol.; mules (ruin about 25.1,
to 451: and' .5o1.; fresh provi,:ions, beet- tor instance,
frOm (id. and 70. to 20d. a pound ; staves per.
haps t or 14 oinOtti, to 3M. and 441. a thousand ;
hired labour is about donhied in 'the time

pared to State the prof :ion. The salaries ot oo.)1,t--

not state the, increase in 'a progressive way; tlirre
have been v.:riations.at different tittles; at one tim e..
during the American- War; sL:yes, were very high,
and for a very short time •after the las:i peace, beef
got down to a shilling.
. • GUI you speak tis to the necessity of having an.
intercourse' trout'the:" West India Colonies unveil),
With.the nited States. of Ain,..lle.i, fuf sevori:, w--
,tides necessary fir the use and

matter of opinion; I ;believe it to be esst.:utially
necessary. . .

asrt matter of opiwrmi, say witAio; such a s,.)ply
as is necessary tor the Ilie Ilk, .:u!:tr platitati-tis
can be had from the British North Atueitcalt Colo,
nies ?-1 believe they-could nut supply its ; I have
understood that the British Ctilotot:s of No,-;11 ztine-
'rica have been obliged to -apply to the American
States for some of the-articles we require. •
Are there' nut many estates in Jamaica which,
front their soil, exposure, or situation, must make
sugar of a quality always below tile average quality
...of the Islaild;:and • therefore must,, in the ptosont
circumstances of the tuarket, be under pectunu •
pression -Undoubtedly.
Could these estates, by ony .ctisng. of rasutkacs
ture, in. your opinion, make a Muscovado Sugar
materially different from what they do at present ?
—I should imagine not; the quality of the sugar
depends more on the soil than on any other drew)...
I stance.

Can the Sugar Planter Change the cultivation of
his lands to..coffee and cotton, whenthe pras.4 of se-
gal is low, -and` thereby profit by better prices :ng
given for such articles I—.l conceive it impossible.
I think you stated, in two instances that came
within your own knowledge, yesterday, of sugar
plantations having been what. is called throwls- up, .
and the land sold; that in one of those, the land
was worth 13s. 4d.:and the other per acre;
what would aloha lands have been worth,, or what
would they have been valued for in a state of culti-
vation for sugar canes, in your opinion 1-'7-They have
been again made sugar works by the people that
purchased'them, and I should suppose,at this mo-
ment. the cane lands, with the canes upon them,
• would value at ;70]. an aCre; and if by any 'accident
they should be deprived of their Negroes, as thus'
were before, the lands would be of no more value
than they were when formerly bought.'
You stated yesterday that within the last twenty
years- there has been a very great 'advance in the
price of all articles that necessary for the main-
tenance of a sugar plantation, some double, others
treble, and upwards I—Yes.
Do you happen' to know what the a&ual ndt pro-
ceeds to the proprietor of .a hogshead of sugar was
twenty years ago in the English market, and what
•it now is 1-1- do not ; one hogshead nets three
times as much 'as
.another; I should imagine that
15 years ago a hogshead of sugar netted twice as
much. as it 'does at_present. •
When you 'stated , yesterday, in answer to -a
Squestion concerning
,tile :difficulty of converting
ugar estates into other cultivation, that:you cows.
Ceived it could not be done without great disecivan-
use-, because thdre..woeld be a necessity for -re-.
moving ftte. negroes, did you mean to state, that
negroes cannot• be removed from one situation to
another without great disadvantage and loss ?-1.
meant to state,,that negroes cannot be removed'front
one situation to another without great disadvantage
and loss; and I also meant to state, that the %votes
these. negroes 'removed from would become altoge-
ther useless, and the landi they removed 'from of
very' little -value ; the tiegrOds have 'provision.'
grounds, -and houies, aod garaelis round' each house;
and plenty of fruit frees', and they have, at sot
little distance, other lands, which they cultivate
for the _maintenance; of thethselves and families ;
they have' gardens round 'their houses', uhith are
planted with fruit trees and vegetables of various
every house has a garden round it, of ,a
. quarter or half an acre pr more ; they are attach-
ed to the spot, and they are attached to the graves, 'of
their forefathers ; their houses are, in a great mea-
sure, of. their own building, and - may be of al
twenty, twenty-five, or thirty pounds each, I wish
,also to, state, that io the infancy of a plaotation, the

and the. conversion of a very few sugar plantations
to corn fields 'would gltit' the market.

return no interest for the capital vested' in them, but
even bring a than in debt, from his making sugar at
a greater price than he Sells it for.

Is it. not, in any degree, pccaSioned by the growth
of a partieular cane in the West India islands
donot think it is ; it is perhaps increased by the ex-
travagant price sugar bore some few years ago, which
Lansed.an increase of the ctiltivation ; all the best

which they contain respeEting thenperations before
Copenhagen is 'not of so late a date 83 that which
we communicated to our 'leaders yesterday and the
day before, It affords us, however, great pleasure
o find that the Letters from Zealand, inserted in the
Correspondmien, do ample justice 'to the charaeler
of our Troops ; they state, that the most stria disci-
pline is preserved, :and that every thing. is poid
for with the utmost punauality, A Proclaim!,
Lion has been issued' for granting Letters of
Marque against Eritish Vessels it is dated at
Schleswic, the , it3tli of August; aand by etother
Proclarnatinn, all English property in the. Danish

venture to 13611 C an Order for the seizure of British

may think himself bound in honour to def!enr:F
the .-place" until a practicable breach is effe&cd,
it is impossible to foresee. But whatever course
be may pursue, he cannot protraet the of
Colienhagen many -days. Those who blame. our.
Commanders for not hairing landed the Troops,
and taken possession of Copenhagen immediately,
r.e.41 to. be ;very little acquainted with mili.:

.
men, with all their heavy artillery, ammunitibn,
&c. cannot be effected in so short a time as those
Writer's 'seem to imagine ; and we cannot' suppose
that they °think Lord CATHCART Qught to have
Marched the Army, x‘;ithourt any artillery, against
Copenhagen, which is surrounded by a strong wall,
and by h broad wet ditch. The" Dispatches which
were received yesterday and Wednesday will, We
understand, .be published in the Gazette of to-

well knos.vn that BEttruirYt-ra, has inter-

was to be apprehended from French artifice, in-
timidation, and; Promises. In the situation of
Den Mark, she. could not avoid' falling into the
hands of France or of Gre4 Britain. From
,France she could only expect a hollo'iv and delusiVe
appearaneCoffriendship, which might terminate in
hir"totat:o-kolltrow.- Frorn.Great Britain-, she• was
sure of liberal protection, and of ample reparation
when all danger was at an end.. The very mode in.
.which our Cornmanders are conducting th6fie mea-
sures, which the useless resistance of Denmark'
has unfortunately rendered necessary, pikes this
Country in a light:in. the highest degree ho-
nourahle, and which Wants no addiAC'nal inStre
from la-comparison _with the hostile proceedings of
Fran'ce, 'wherever she may dire& her operations.
Fa.frem resorting to thosemeatis which the usage
of I,k7a,tfare•rnight justify, it is the aim of on.r doth-
manders to prevent as much as possible all blood-
shed,' attd.,to.treat the Panes. as misgoideci. friends,
whom Great Britain. was anxiously disposed to lake
under hei,proteetion. • In every point of.vie,wthen,
