A Leeward Island Mail has Arrived by the Barracouta. Sailed
from Barbadoes 25th Jan. and from St. Thomas's 10th Feb. Bar.
badoes Papers have been received by the above conveyance, but are
void of Interest.

Letters have been received from Vera Cruz, but of an old date.
There still appears to be a pause in the speculations in the funds,
and the Consol market is in a dull state,with little or nothing doing.
Consols, which left off yesterday at 92 to for the Account, opened
at 92i, at which price they are at present, and for Money 91i to 92.
Hobart Town Papers have been received at the North and South
American Coffee-house, but not of a later date than the last arrival.
They state, as a proof of the increased value of land in the Colony,
eight hundred pounds, or two pounds per acre, have been offered for
a paddock of four hundred acres, at the Cross Marsh, by three or
four different settlers ; and equal prices for other spots of good land,
without building.
The arrival of two ships, one with male, and the other with fe-
male prisoners, may be daily expected. We understand that the
number of applications for male and female servants is unusually
great. We trust that the Lieutenant-Governor will make known
the great want of hands in the colony to Sir George Murray, in or-
der that eight ships with male, and four with female prisoners, at
least, may be sent annually.
The female factory in Sydney contains no less than 531 women
and 46 children. We cannot avoid raising our voice against this
mode of impressing so many women in colonies, where the female
sex are so scarce, and where their services are so valuable, and in
such request. •
The Sydney Gazette cries out strongly against usury, and it
prays for an Act to protect the entire of the property of the colony.
LIVERPOOL, Msacm B.—The demand for pine timber is by no
means so great as might have been expected, and we may consider
the market to be in a dull state ; the trade, who are tolerably well
supplied, appear to be anxious to sell ; former prices could not be
realized. Scarcely any thing has been done in indigo since the pub.
lic sale. The impart of Irish grain has been lighter than previous.
The demand for wheat has been on a limited scale.

HATS-PAST ONE.

Since the early part of the morning Consols have become heavy,
and receded from 92§ to 92, but at present may be quoted at 94,
and for money 91f. The chief speculation doing this morning has
been in Greek Bonds, which went down since yesterday about sit
per cent. caused by a certain paragraph in an Evening Paper, which
does not gain credit by the well-informed. Two loans have been
contracted by the Greeks, for which they have procured arms and
ammunition, with other articles, and by which means they have
gained their liberty and independence from the Turks ; therefore it
is not supposed that they will be so ungrateful as to refuse to pay so
just a debt.
The Express has brought the French Funds 5 per cents. 106 ex
'dividend.

The private letters received by the Leeward Island Mail bring a
complete confirmation of the separation of Venezuela from the re.
public of Colombia. All was tranquil, and subscriptions were
going forward for the support of Venezuela.
Accounts from Gibraltar, of the 28th February, state, that his
Majesty's Government had sent to the authorities there for informa-
tion on the cause of the rapid decline of the commerce of that Island.
The English brig Rose had arrived there from Terceira. The Wand
was well supplied, and the inhabitants were in great spirits. They
expected 2,000 troops from the Brazils, under the orders of Colonel
ShaovaL _ -

Accounts from Brunswick state that five thousand troops were
going to march into the Duke of Brunswick's territory, and would
remain in possession until he made an apology for his put conduct
to the King of England.

The Duchess of Cumberland, attended by the Countess
of Schlippenbech, came to town, yesterday, from her re-
sidence at Kew. Her Royal Highness visited the Prin-
cess Augusta at her residence in the King's Palace, St.
James's, and returned to Kew about six o'clock in the
evening.
