A novel auction was held to-day. Some bills of exchange,
accepted by the agent for the Spanish Government, Mr. A. R.
Carbonell, drawn for supplies furnished to it in 1836 and IW,
were put up to sale. The acgregate amount of the bill: was
15,012/. 15s. Bd., and they sold in eight lots, varying from Itl/.
to 35/. , and produced a total of one hundred and seventy pounds.
The tariff having come into operation to -day, the Custom.
hou,e was crowded long before the commencement of the usual
hours of business. The arrangements made in anticipation of
the pressure, were, however, so judicious, that scarcely any
ti nub a wa: experienced by parties having to pay duties. The
clearances of good: must have been extremely large, but an
approximation cannot be arrived at until the publication of the
otlicial accounts, which, by the way, are generally several days
behind.

The Isis has arrivi d with ihe West India mail, having left
Jamaica on tiie Bth June. The private accounts are generally
favourable, and the weather having been exceedingly fine, the
quantity of sugar which will be shipped is estimated this year
to exceed Ihe last considerably. The good understanding between
the negroes and the planters conti, and the former evinced
every disposition to exalt themselves for the mutual benefit The
want of ;about ers had not been relieved, and the- colonists were
exerting themselves to procure a supply. The question of
emigration occupied much attention, and means were being
taken to encourage Ent opeans to settle in the various is,ands,
esi eeiallt the Bermudas. The intelligence from Deinerara is
'host discouraging. The negroes have wholly refused to
cork, have lett the estates, and proceeded into
the interior; consequently cultivation had been in many
instances necessarily abandon d. At Trinidad, on the
contrary, affairs were flourisding, and great satisfaction had
been shown by the receipt of a despatch from this country erect-
ing that colony into an independent Government.
By the Quebec packet-ship, papers of June 21, have been
