HALIFAX, AUGUST 3.

Our files of Jamaica Papers, to the Ist July, bring
accounts that the crops in several parts of the island
had sustained serious injury by a long and distressing
drought. The Euryalus has taken home a large sum
in specie. The Tartar frigate, from the coast of
Africa, was daily expected at Port Royal, for the
purpose of taking his Grace the Duke of MANCHESTIII
to England. Accounts from the Havannah repre-
sent that place to be very sickly.
A vessel has arrived at Salem, which made one of
the thirty-six sail, mostly Spanish, which left Laguira
on the 19th June, full of troops and citizens, with
their property.

QUEBEC, JUNE is.
Arrived the ship Nassau, from Waterford, with
_OG settlers; the brig Margaret, from Greenock, with
twenty-six settlers; the schooner James, from St.
John's, with eighteen settlers; the ship Commerce,
from Greenock, with 422 settlers; and the ship David,
from Greenock, with 364 settlers.

lIAVANNAII, JULY 8.
Arrived the British frigate Enryalus, Captain W
BIGLAND, in eight days from Kingston.

The Par is Papers of Saturday last have arrived,
but their contents possess little interest. On Sir
CHARLES STEWART presenting to the KING an offi-
cial notification of the death of the QUEEN of ENG-
LAND, orders were issued for the Court going into
mourning on Sunday next for twenty-one days. The
mourning is to be black for the first eleven days, and
white for the last ten days.
The Duke of WELLINGTON has had a private au-
dience of his MAJESTY.

The Enghsh at Dijon, who are pretty numerous,
have all put on mourning for Queen CAROLINE.
The latest intelligence from Constantinople repre•
sents the capital as quiet, and the insurrection in
the provinces as completely suppressed; but serious
troubles have broken out in Candia.
Tranquil}ity is also reestablished in Smyrna, but
the plague has made its appearance there, and now
rages in great force at Rhodes.

HIS MAJESTY 'S VISIT TO IRELAND.

It appears, that after the Civic Dinner at the Man-
sion House in ,Dublin (of which we gave the most
ample details in the STAR of yesterday), some per-
sons belonging to the minor Corporations requested
the Alderman, who had succeeded the LORD MAYOR
in the Chair, to announce the toast of " The glorious
and immortal memory of King William the Third."
The Chairman very properly refused to comply with
this extraordinary request, feeling that to grant it
would be to break a solemn compact, which the na-
tion, and the Illustrious Guest who had been but a
few hours before in that room, had so highly ap-
proved. Another Corporator, however, had no scru-
ples, and he announced the toast, which was drank
with many noisy and intemperate marks of satisfac-
tion by the few individuals who remained. •
On Fi Hay, at one o'clock, his MAJESTY left the
Castle, on a visit to the Marquis of CONYNGIIAM, at
Slane Castle. He was accompanied by a troop of
horse as far as Finglass, when he dismissed one-half
of them. His MAJESTY, travelling at the rate of ten
Irish miles an hour, arrived at Slane Castle at twenty
minutes after four. None of his suite could keep up
with him; but Lord SIDMOCTH, Lord MA RYBOROUGH,
the LORD LIEUTENANT, and other Noblemen, arrived
about six o'clock.
His MAJESTY'S reception was really magnificent.
On the road he was cheered at almost every turn,
and an immense concourse of the Nobility, Gentry,
and Clergy, rent the air with acclamations as his
MAJESTY alighted from his carriage. With his
wonted kindness and condescension, his MAJESTY
graciously acknowledged the salutations of his loyal
and enthusiastic subjects. Mr. PLUNKETT was spe-
cially invited to Slane Castle to meet the KING.
On Saturday his MAJESTY visited Drogheda,where
he would receive a Loyal Address. Yesterday the
KING was to return to Dublin, and dine with the
University ; and, this day, the Grand Installation
of the Knights of St. Patrick was to take place.
The Gentlemen of the County of Dublin having
applied, through Colonel TALBOT, for permission to
attend as an escort to his MAJESTY on his departure
from the City for the Curragh on Wednesday next,
have received an answer by Sir BENJAMIN BLOOSI
FIELD, " that his MAJESTY would be most graciously
pleased to receive the attention of the Gentlemen of
the County of Dublin on that occasion."—A Meeting
of the Gentlemen of the County was appointed on
' Saturday, at the Royal Exchange, to consider of
the means in which they might best avail themselves
of the honour leis MAJESTY had graciously permit-
ted them.

Friday, about six o'clock, Prince ESTERHAZY ar- I
rived at Glasgow, in one of the Royal carriages. He
came from Dublin by way of Port Patrick, and was
to remain two days, and then proceed to Buchanan,
to visit the Duke of MONTROSE. Prince VICTOR, ne-
phew of I'rince METTERNICH, is also expected there.
