We are without later arrivals to-day from any quarter. The

QUARTER TO THREE.
The accounts from Batavia and other pails of Java, allude
generally, in terms of dissatisfaction, to the Government mono-
po!ies which press upon the resources of the colonise, for
although the products of the island exported to fo-
reign parts, amount to the very considerable
sum of 20,000,000 florins annually, the island itself is only
benefited to the extent of one half of that a m, as the Govern-
ment in reality buys up the whole produce for about
10,0,':0,000 florins, which it pays for too, in a de-
preciated copper currency. In the same. manner too,
the import trade affords no fair criterion of the 1 ro-
verity of the colony, for seven-eighths of all the goods
received are the produce of Government monopoly manu-
faetories. It appears to be seriously in contemplation
by the Dutch Government to establish steam com-
munication between Holland and Java this year ; and there
ought to be some attempt made, we think, to obtain Tor Britl.ll
commerce Rose just privileges to which, by existing treaties,
it is entitled, and for which our merchants have long petitioned
in ♦ain.
