JAMAICA.

KINGSTON, Ser.'.26.—We regret to mention,
that two attempts were made on Monday to set
fire to the ill-fated town of Port Royal. At one
place a fire-stick was placed under the east door
of a new house, opposite the Polygon battery,
belonging to Henry S. Beer, Esq., which began
to blaze ; but one of the neighbours, going a fish-
ing, discovered it and gave the alarm, when it was
extinguished. The other was at a new house, the
corner of Adalo's-alley, near a retail shop, under
the shingles of which, at the west corner of the
root, some combustibles were placed, and they.be-
gan to burn briskly, when a young man in the ad-
joining yard awoke from the smoke bursting into
his room, and by his assistance the fire was subdu-
ed. Fortunately there was little or no wind, in
consequence of which the fires were extinguished
without any serious injury. From every circum-
stance, there cannot be a doubt but that the dia-
bolical attempt was the work of an incendiary or
incendiaries ; the Magistrates and Vestry have
therefore offered a reward of 2001. with a view
to discover him or them ; and if brought to light
by the aid of a slave, they promise to use every
exertion to obtain his or her freedom.

Yesterday his Grace the Governor was pleased
to issue his Proclamation, calling the lion. House
of Assembly to meet and proceed to business on
Tuesday, the 27th day of October next.
