JAMAICA.

•
(From the Jamaica Standard and Royal Gazette of
March 25.)
Kingston, March 21, 1842.
To his Excellency the Right Honourable Sir
Charles T. Metcalfe, &c. &c.
The humble Address of the Members composing
the Congregation of the English and German
Jews of the City and Parish of Kingston.
May it please your Excellency—We, the members
of the congregaticn of English and German Jews of
this city, beg leave most respeotfUlly to approach your
Eicellency, and in common with all classes to express
our deep sorrow at the severe loss the island is about
to sustain in the departure of your Excellency from
these shores.
Identified as are our interests with the welfare of
the colony, our feelings are still more warmly en-
listed in whatever concerns it, since we enjoy here,
equally with all our fellow-subjects, privileges and
immunities denied us in other parts of her Majesty's
dominions. We, therefore, stand not aloof, but join
in the general regret which pervades the minds of all,
particularly when the advantages arising from the
enlightenment, generosity, and kindness which have
distinguished your administration, are considered.
We should, however, have been wanting in grati-
tude to your Excellency, had we on the present oc-
casion failed to express our sentiments separately, as
a religious body, for the noble and disinterested
conduct you have maintained, and for the charity of
heart and hand you have evinced in all cases,
and to all sects ; nor can we ever forget the
kind feeling you displayed, not only towards our
brethren here, but also on behalf of the sufferers
at Rhodes and Damascus. The sympathy manifested
towards the poor and afflicted—the assistance
amply afforded to the wants of others, and
the support and patronage extended to works of pub-
lic utility, cannot fail to meet that recompense which
the great Judge of our actions awards to the benevo-
lent, to secure the peace of an approving conscience,
and indelibly to engrave your memory on the hearts
of a grateful posterity.
In the departure of your Excellency, we shall de-
plore the loss of a tried friend, who watched over the
best interests of the people with the unceasing solici-
tude of paternal consideration, whose wisdom ensured
the just administration of the laws, and whose urbanity
of manner secured the love and esteem of all.
In rendering to your Excellency these our un-
feigned sentiments, we offer our fervent prayers to
the throne of grace, for your prosperous passage home
—for a long and uninterrupted enjoyment of health,
and for the possession of every happiness which a
bountiful Creator can bestow.

By direction and behalf of the meeting,
P. LAWRENCE, Chairman.
HIS EXCELLENCY'S REPLY.

To the Members of the Congregation of English and
German Jews of the City and Parish of Kingston.
I beg you, Gentlemen, to accept my warmest thanks
for the sentiments that you have expressed on the oc-
casion of my approaching departure.
To he deemed worthy of such kindness, I must
ever prize as one of the highest honours than can be
received.

You have justly alluded to the fact, that
you enjoy
in Jamaica, equally with all your
fellow-subjects, privileges and immunities denied
to you in other parts of the British dominions.
The fact is honourable to this island, and the
reverse is discreditable to the mother country. I trust
that the time is near, when the Legislature of the
United Kingdom will follow the example of that of
Jamaica, and grant equal rights to all the loyal sub-
jects of our gracious Queen without distinction. We
have here proof, from experience, that this can be
not only without injury, but with manifest be-
nefit
;and I hope to see the day when it will be ad-
mitted by the Imperial Parliament, that all who con-
tribute to the support of the State are entitled to the
enjoyment of equal rights, and that the surest mode
of promoting the stability of an empire is to unite all
hearts in common interests and brotherly love.
My best wishes will ever attend you, Gentlemen,
with a cordial desire for your prosperity and hap-
piness.

Saturday morning at 3 o'clock, the mail packet for
Hamburgh left her moorings, havingon board two of the Direc-
tors of one of the principal fire-offices, besides the principal of
that department. The Secretary and other officers of two
other principal fire-offices were also on board. The principal
of the fire-department of the Sun Fire.office is at present in
Hamburgh. The above offices have remitted nearly half a mil-
lion of cash to pay every demand on them immediately on the
arrival of the above vessel, and to save the sufferers the delay
that would otherwise occur in making their claims in London.
BRISTOL SUGAR MARKET, MAY 13.--We have had
a fair show of sugar of all descriptions, and a good amount of
business has been transacted ; but the London market having
continued to decline. there was less disposition to purchase at
the close of the week. Prices are still too high for the coun-
try buyers to have confidence in them. The arrivals sirce our
last are—Feliza, 6,914 mats; NiUian Thompson. 3ro hhds. ;
Fanny, 460 hhds. ; Hornby, 419 hhds. ; Triumph, 200 hhils.;
Ajax, 500 hhds. ; George, 580hhds.—Bristol Mercury.
