REGISTERED PALETOT of LLAMA
CLOTH, 6 and 7 Victoria, capr-65.
Pationliedhy the Prince Consort, Prince George of Cavisitmbridge, the
Duke of Wellington, and the following distinguished ors to
of Prussia, the King ,the
s
country :—The Emperor of Russia, the King o
Belgium, the King of Saxony, the King W Holland, Prince William
of Prussia, and further honoured by the continued patronage of all
who seek an unaffected gentlemanly appearance. The cloth is
made of Llama Wool, a fabric most agreeably soft and elastic to the
touch, and is one-third the weight of ordinary woollen clothes, but it
corresponds in shades of colour. It is very durable, and naturally a
repellent of rain, yet so porous as to admf a due escape of ex
priceces-
sive bodily heat. These advantages, with the escape
of
charged, renders the Registered Paletot worthy the attention of all.
They can be purchased in London, of the Patentees only,
at their
Wareroorns, 114, Regent-street, and 22, Cornhill,
THE Public is respectfully cautioned that H. J.
and D. NICOLL, Court Tailors, have never granted the Li-
cence to any other house in London of making and selling the
LLAMA CLOTH REGISTERED PALETOT. The celebrity so
!tatty earned by this light water-proof and gentlemanly overcoat has
induced many otherwise respectable tradesmen to assume a simi-
larity of name, but in that only can it resemble the: true Paletot.
It has been deemed advisable to state that the registered Paletot of
Llama Cloth can only be purchased of the Patentees, in London,
viz., Id., 3., and D. 'NICOLL, 114, Regent-street, or their New
Warersoms, 22, Cornhill, opposite the south entrance of the Royal
Exchange, and one door from Change-alley.

On CHASTITY and its INFRMOEMENTS
(An Essay for 1846.)
Of human ills and frailties I discourse,
Attlierf,),,,,,,. Those taught by nature, and by art aeutlifd.
• Of gr.efs conceal'at, and disappointments keen,
Which young and gentle, the matured and sage,
The lonely and the rnated•—all sustain.
In kindly spirit, herein counsel's giv'n,
How health, how hope, how happiness to gain."

WHAT to EAT, DRINK, and AVOID ;
With Diet Tables for all Complaints.
Contents :—How to ensure perfect digestion, tranquil feelings, a
good night's rest, a clear head, and a contented mind. By an ob-
servance of the instructions herein contained, the feeble, the ner-
vously delicate, even to the most shattered constitution, may acquire
the greatest amount of physical happiness, and reach in health the
full period of life allotted to man.
" Ho* we should live—what eat, what drink, what shun,
To reach in health Dill threescore years and ten."
These interesting little volumes, although hearing upon subjects of
very delicate import, as their titles imply, will be found of immea-
surable and general utility, for they tell of matters everyliving crea-
ture able to understanl ought to know, but which information in
these enlightened times, except that quality promulgated through
questionable channels, is at a very terrible discount.
In the exposition hereby offered of the till now hidden truths of
nature, of human disappointments and their ways of relief, it is not
contended that every reader shall become his or her own physician
any more than their own lawyer, but it is insisted upon that we
should know the simple principles of our owu organization, the laws
whereby our existence and the issue thereof in their several healthy
states depend, the duties that are expected of us in our individual
capacities in the family circle, and the terms on which the health and
happiness of the present and future race of mankind have to rely.
By such knowledge, and which is herein faithfully imparted,
health will be found to be in our own keeping, and happiness
within the attainment of all ; by the availment hereof in fulfilling
our duty to ourselves, we secure the like advantages on our offspring
to follow, and finally by the cultivation of our faculties, which is in-
consistent with degenerate health, the mini as well as the body may
be exalted to the summit of perfection, as best becomes the highest
of God's creations.
The author's justification for this seeming eulogy of his own writ-
ings, and the avowal of their integrity of purpose, must be measured
by their perusal—his accredited qualifications guarantee that the
topics broached involve his legitimate study and pursuit.

SOUTHAMPTON THURSDAY NIGIIT.—The Forth, Royal
Mail steam-ship, Captain Chapman, arrived this evening, at
six o'clock, with the usual fortnightly mail. She has had an
exceedingly rapid passage, and has arrived full a couple of
days before she was expected.
The Forth brings the large number of 131 passengers,
amongst whom are his Excellency the Earl of Elgin,
daughter, sister, Lady Charlotte Bruce, and suite. His Lord-
ship is looking uncommonly well.
The latest dates brought by the Forth are, St. Jago de
Cuba, May 19 ; Demerara, May 19 ; Trinidad, 21; Jamaica,
24; Barbadoes, 24; Grenada, 25; St. Thomas's, 30; and
Faval, June 12.
On frieght axe 832 ounces of#l-dust, 8 serous of bark,
80 bales of sarsaparilla, 50 tlertes of ooffee,4 46 barrels of
ditto, a quantity of ginger. 1,260 dollars, and sundry packages'
of saccades, tamarinds, &c.
The Forth passed the Medway, outward bound, this morn-
ing at seven o clock,between Portland and the Lizard.
The news brought by the Forth is of no great moment,
excepting that the drought still continued in the Island of
Tamaica to an, alarming extent. Some slight showers had
fallen in one or two parishes, which merely had the effect
of refreshing the parched- up ground for awhile ; in St.
David's, in particular, the weather has been extremely dry
and hot ; in Kingston, the thermometer, in the shade, has
been as high as 96.
Since the last advices some of the islands have been
blessed with rain, but not to any great extent. The long
drought has wrought so unfavourably upon the crops, that
in almost, if not quite, every island, they will fall off con-
siderably.
The Avon royal mail steam-ship was at St. Thomas's
when the Forth left ; the Clyde was at Jamaica ; the
Glasgow on her usual station ; the Trent en route from
Jamaica to Bermuda, Havannah, &c. ; and the Teviot in the
Spanish main.
The following is a list of the passengers :

Elma (daughter), Lady Charlotte 13, uce and servants, Lieu-

(From the Jamaica Times, May 25.)
We cannot better commence our present summary than
by directing attention to a report which, strange to say, ob-
tained almost universal currency among the press of the
mother country previous to the sailing of the last packet ;
namely, that the weather in the West Indies had been
generally favourable, and -that the crops in Jamaica
and elsewhere " had a most favourable aspect." How
such an erroneous impression could have originated, we
era totally at a loss to conceive; for we are not aware
that there is a single colony in the Wrest Indies
-*wet, answer. to the above description. But even sup-
posing that some isolated instance could be found, and that
some equally isolated ignoramus connected with sonic English
journal had leaped to the mistaken conclusion, it says little
for the industry of our editorial brethren in general, that
instead of examining for themselves the contents of
the various West India papers, they, with only one exception
that we have, been able to discover, were content with copy-
ing from each other, and thus permitted an error, unfortu-
nately for us, of the greatest magnitude, to go the round of
the whole British press. The exception, we must in justice
state, is the Colonial Gazette, which, as usual, had taken the
trouble to judge for itself, and consequently presented a pic-
ture of distress from the unparalleled drought with which we
have been visited, diametrically opposite to the report so
inexcusably circulated by its contemporaries. In Barbadoes,
in consequence of the late long-continued drought, the crop
will fall off at least one-fifth. In Trinidad, from a similar
cause. both the sugar and cocoa crop have suffered materially.
In British Guiana, the loss of stock and destruction of pro-
duce, from a drought of nearly eight months' duration, are
stated to be deplorable in the extreme, In
Tobago, the
House of Assembly, in reply to the expressed hope of the
Lieutenant- Governor that the present crop may prove at
least an average one, distinctly tell him that they have no
such favourable expectation, but on the contrary are assured
that "the year 1846 will long be remembered as having
pressed with peculiar severity on the cultivators of the sta-
ples " in that island. In St. Vincent, Dominica, Grenada,
&c., similar tales of distress are told : and lastly, -in
Jamaica, where little or no rain has fallen during the last
nine months, the crop will unquestionably fall off at least
one-fourth, so that altogether if the West Indies, ship
2,t50,000 cwts., instead of the 2,850,000 cwts., which they
exported last year, it will be as much as can be expected
under the circumstances, and certainly offers a striking con.
tract to the "favourable aspect" alleged to be borne by the
West Indies in the report above referred to,
Raving given the
gloomy side of the picture, it is 110 W,
however, our more pleasing duty to state, that the weather
generally has taken a change for the better; although no
extent of rain which has yet fallen is at all calculated to
supply the present wants of the country, far less to provide
for the future, by any accumulation either in our ponds, or
streams.

As a natural consequence of the deficiency in our crops,
and the comparative cessation of cultivation during the last
few months, money is unusuay scarce, and trade pro-
portionately depressed in all its branches. Indeed, beyond
the mere necessities in food and clothing, little or nothing
has been doing for some time; and even in these respects
the legitimate merchant has had his operations very much
encroached upon by the number of petty importers which
have lately sprung up; while many of those who were for-
merly only retailers, are now dabbling in the wholesale line;
and thus articles of merchandise, which formerly only re-
quired to go through first and second hands before they
reached the consumer, are now bandied from party to party,
each transaction creating so much negotiable paper; so that
in fact every hundred pounds' worth of property actually
brought into the country, becomes the basis of a creation
of paper money to at least four or five times that amount.
In the hope of curing this evil in part, as well as no doubt
protecting themselves, the banks have latterly restrictedricted
their discounts very considerably; although it
against them, and we fear not without cause, that they have
been somewhat injudicious in their proceedings on this score,
and have made the system almost a general one, to the
serious inconvenience of the public at large, instead of merely
applying the screw where the circumstances pointed out that
it was absolutely called for. There is no doubt, however,
that in the end, a considerable portion of the community
will be benefited by the measure; while all that is required,
to restore confidence and credit generally would be the
nrospect of a better crop next year—the preparatory culti-
vation for which would soon set a sufficiency of money
afloat. This, however, as we have elsewhere observed, alone
depends upon the weather. Let Providence be only bountiful
in this respect, and we have, comparatively speaking, little
else to fear.
The departure of his Excellency the Earl of Elgin from
our shores—although only for a time—suggests some consi-
deration of the character his Lordship's government for
the four years during which he has now resided in this
island. Coming after so universal a favourite, and so expe-
rienced a tactician as :Sir Charles Metcale, it certainly
required no common qualities of mind or powers of go-
verning to have maintained even a respectable footing in
public opinion ; but we are sure we only do Lord Elgin
justice, and only echo public opinion, when we say, that
his Lordship, in the discharge of his many and onerous
duties as her Majesty's representative in this island, has
established a reputation for himself essentially peculiar to
himself--the full merits of which are not to be developed
in a day, any more than the public advantages upon which
it is founded, will cease with his Lordship's surrender of the
seals of office.
During his Excellency's absence he will no doubt have
an opportunity of seeing and conversing with many in the
mother.country deeply interested in the prosperity, as well as
occupied in the external government of the affairs of this and
our sister colonies, and we are sure that when he returns to
us—as return, he will, we hope—it will not be the least
among the many ot,ligations which he has conferred upon us,
that, although absent _he still watched over our interests.
May the passage be propitious to his Lordship and his illus-
trious family ; and may health and happiness attend them—
the noble creole not the least in importance, in our estima-
tion—in whatever climes it may be their future lot to be
cast !

This day the inauguration of Major General Berkely has
been appointed to tyke place.
