JAMAICA COTTON COMPANY.

The following query has been addressed to us by
a correspondent :

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

the year 1862 I bought five £lO shares
in the Jamaica Cotton Company (Limited), for
which I paid £5O, and I have received one dividend,
namely, in the year 1863, and no more. As there
are various subscribers who, like myself, probably
would be glad to be informed respecting the state
and prospects of this company, especially after the
recent lamentable events in Jamaica, I beg leave to
suggest, through your journal, that seine informa-
tion from the secretary would be appreciated by
many shareholders, including, yours obediently,
Oxford, 9th February, 1867.

THE LATE SIR RICHMOND SIIAKESPEAR._IVC are
requested to state that a rnmal tablet to the Memory of the
late Sir Richmond Campbell Shakespear has been erected
in the cloisters of the chapel at Gliarterhouse. The tablet
is of the finest Carrara marble, in the purest Gothic form,
quatrefoil, and richly wrought and illuminated. The site
has been selected and presented by the Master, the Ven.
Archdeacon Hale, and is near to those of Thackeray and
Leech, with that of the Crimean and Indian officers to the
west. A duplicate tablet has been sent out to be placed in
St. Anu's Church, Indoro, where Sir Richmond closed his

career.

FALL OF A FLOOIL—A sad occurrence has just
happened at Monte Rocca Dona, in Sardinia. The mayor,
Pietro Masala, who was highly esteemed, died, and the
people wishing to testify their respect hastened to visit the
mortuary chamber. About a hundred persons were as-
sembled in the room when suddenly the flooring gave way,
and the whole of them as well as the corpse were precipi-
tated to the lower story. The neighbours hastened to
their assistance, and after some hours' labour they were
extricated, but one woman was founcl dead and several
other persons more or less injured.
