South Wales will shortly completely supersede

; while at the Cape the culture of wool had been once

lig day two years the people of Jamaica voluntarily

ot crune7of many capital offences now of
viice7before almost unknown ; to the rapes,
is, riots, &c., &c., which now distract the
throng our courts ; and we leave it to the
;elf to declare the verdict.
ions we must now add another—Has the

one preceding it; while our imports,'
the change of circumstances, have en-
