A PKOPlitTle TAX, it is the opinion of some
lative Financiers, will certainly form a part re
Ways and Means. However this may be, the
are respectfully assured, that every Prize in the
sent Lottery will be exempt from any Tax rhap
aad be paid in full Sterling money at the usual t
after the Drawing ; therefore, whether a _
gains One, Two, or all the Three Prises of 119000
any of the other 97 Capitals, no deduction, os zeta
of aay.tneditated Property Tax, can or will t.
place. In addition to the 3,650 Prizes in the Sc'r
the Holders of Three Blanks may order of any W:
Merchant they please, Twelve Pipes of the very b,
old Post Wine, free of Custom, Excises or any
whatever, and in. proportion for Shares.
SHOCKING, Accumwr.—On Monday, Inquests
taken by Mr. Him., Coroner, at the Parsonage-acs

who were at work on Saturday afternoon in a
pit, in the.hamlet of Sheriff's Lench, when about t
tons.of earth fell in upon them, and buried B-o-
and.Bottiter nader it ; the unfortunate men were
taken out till half an hour after; Thornton Si Al
completely cohered with the earth-; he was takes
alive, but survived only. a few minutes. By the e
Bence of John Greenway, the surviving workman
the party, (who, when the accident happened,
out of the pit, stacking the stones at the distance
fourteen yards), it appeared that the earth had .
separated from the main body, that he heard Bre:
say, " Take care, Richard ; and immediately u
mass of earth fell in. Verdicts—Accidental Dex2ll

Sr. Lticts.—The following ertract of a letter.
an Officer on board one of he: Majesty's ships, dat
Barbadoes, November 30, 1817, contains many it
scatting particulars, which give to the mind a Irrit
conception of the destructive ravages of the
ricane than any that have yet reached us :—" (.I.lr
first' making the Island (St. Lucie), we were try
with astonishment at the total change in tle vbc
Face of the country. We left it, the day before
hustitane, a beautiful green: it has now the eke:
appearance of a severe European winter. We
not aware till now that the mountains and high b.
Were covered with la rp timber trees: hitherto. f:
tte- ctoseness and thickness of thefeliage.
peared to us to be underwood only. We vest
shore on the ith November : the scene of dm-

which then presented itself is far beyond m.
of description. The Barracks, HospitaL big
Quarters, and look-out Houses on Pigeon Islam!.
entirely levelled with the ground. Three horai
are left standing out of nearly two hundred axle
the rest, with the Church, are almost quite derv.
elf; sue of the three is shifted IS feet off its

tiou, without going to pieces. The two large rmar
trees, under which the Negroes always met tc dz
on Saturday and Sunday evenings, were tc:-r. UF
the roots, which by their spread in this rather 57'
soil, nearly equal the branches in circumference. 1
woods with which this Island particularly abol:r.
are more or less scattered, according to their eire
to the gale ; matey of the trees which are left or
ing, have only a few of the ragged stout bran►
remaining.. In the deep ravines the wind appeal
have acted in a whirl ; for immense trees are co
pletely thrown down and twisted up in !leaps
most astonishing manner. The barracks; host
and all the works on Mm-ne Fortune, excepting
magazine, are entirely demolished. Castries, the r
town, suffered but little. All die vessels in the
hour, which is considered as snug as any in the W
Indies, were driven on shore all the smaller ('
high and dry. The inhabitants tell us the gnat '
ricalse in 1780 was nothilig equal to this."
