CITY. TWELVE O'CLOCK.
Consols opened at 924 for the Account, at present they
are 92 ; Spanish has been done at 51—receded to 50} i;

Demerara Papers to the 19th November have been received
at the North and South American Coffeehouse. They state
that the accounts from Barbadoes are very satisfactory, in re-
gard to the condition of the apprentices.
The Jamaica Paper of the 21st November says, in reference
to the proceedings of the House, that the business of the
colony is progressing as pleasantly as could be desired. Seve-
ral Annual Bills had been passed, and sent to the Council;
and every disposition appears to exist, on the part of Members,
to get done with their work as soon as possible. There also
exists a willingness in the House, to economize as much as
possible the public money. The reducing the salary of the
Clerk to the Commissioners of Accounts from 1,0001. to F 901.,
and the indisposition to increase that of the Deputy-Receiver-
General at Montego Bay, and the proposition of Messrs. Brown
and Hodgson to carry to the credit of the Island certain fees hi-
therto received by the Receiver-General, under one of the An-
nual Acts—a proposition which prevented the Act from being
reported—show that the means of the public are likely to be
carefully husbanded. _ _

The following is the message from the Council to his Ex-
cellency the Governor :
'" May it please your Excelleney,—We are commanded by
the Council to wait upon your Excellency, and to acquaint
you, that the Board fully appreciate the consideration which
has induced your Excellency to afford them the information
contained in your message respecting the progress made by
the Commissioners of the Compensation, and the arrangements
entered into for completing their final report on the uncon-
tested claims."
