WEST INDIES.

The Cornwall, Captain Morrison, which has arrived
at Liverpool from Demerara, called off Barbadoes on
the 4th January, and brought dispatches for Govern-
ment. Martial law was to cease at Demerara on the
Bth January. The holydays had passed over in a peace-
able manner; but everything was very dill!.
It has already been mentioned, that eight of the
ringleaders concerned in the late insurrection on Frontier
Estate, Jamaica, were executed ; the chief was one
Watson; of him the overseer, in his letter to the pro-
prietor, speaks in the following terms : " The head
cooper, Charles Watson, was the man I placed most
confidence in of any on the Estate; and had such an
attempt been made without my having time to get the
assistance of white people, he would have been the first
I should have called to stand between your property
and destruction ; indeed his conduct since I have been
upon the Estate fully justified me in forming, however
erroneously, such an opinion of him."
The following is an extract of a letter from Jamaica,
to a Gentleman in Edinburgh :

" St. Andrew'3, Jamaica, Dec. 29, 1823.

" We are preparing to mount guard in all the parishes, some
having already commenced. In St. Mary's, the negroes have been
undermining a fort, and taking out the ammunition. Ten have
been condemned, and will be hanged next week. Their intention
was to massacre all the whites, with the exception of Ladies and
Medical Gentlemen. This information transpired this morning."

DEPARTURE OF THE KING FOR WINDSOR•

BRIGHTON, THURSDAY, FE3._l2, TIMES: O'CLOCK, P.M.

His MAJESTY, precisely at half-past 12 o'clock, P.M.
left the Pavilion, accompanied, in his travelling carriage,
by the Marquis of CONYNGFIAM, and Sir WILLIAM
KNIGHTON, not for Carlton Palace, but to proceed di-
rect to Windsor.
The Military, the .58th Infantry and the 7th Royal Hussars, were
drawn up, extending front the south gtte of the Palace, with the
colours, bands, drums, trumpets, and bugles of the several corps,
together with a loyal and crowded assemblage of the town's people.
The national anthem was played as the SOVEREIGN passed, with the
usual ceremony of lowering the colours and presenting arms.
In the midst of our rt,;:ets, we have the consolation to know
that his MAJESTY left us in perfectly re-established health.
The whole of the Royal Establishment, excepting those who are
usually entrusted with the care of the Palace, will have kit us by
the end of the week.

Prior to the departure of the KING for Windsor, his
MAJESTY, with the Marquis of CONYNGHAM and Sir
WILLIAM KNIGHTON, proceeded in his travelling car-
riage, at noon, to the Marine Parade, to survey the
Chain Pier, from which his MAJESTY returned to the
Palace in about half an hour, and, without alighting,
departed as above stated.
