FRoM JAMArcA.-By II. b. NJ higate .qfhol,
from Jamaica, last from Havana we have re-
ceived FROM our attentive CORRESPONDENT, regu-
lar files of the Jamaica Courant," from the
eth December TO the 10th January, inclusive
We discover nothing new on their perusal.
The Editor of The Courant, IN his paper Of
January l, complains strongly against the add
minlstration of law and Justice in ;he Island
He says " the people have seen nothing hut
professions of economy without reti enchment
pledges without neutrality-suspicious. neg
leced and disregarCied. In fact we have seeti
nothing consistent, but Inconsistency without
end. Nothing Just, but injustice without II
blush at the complaints of the people" We
find that meeting oftlie Frrrholders and 9TH
er Inhabitants ofthe City and Parish of Kings
ton had taken place and several resolutions
passed, condrmnatory of the proceedings Of
their House of Assembly. and particularly of
the Act passed 1920, "to regulate tie Ges cf
the Customs" They conceive this Act null
and void, and that all he fees taken during
the last year were Illegal
PORTO RIco.-The brig Marcellus, Gi!Iet,
from Matanzas, Via Turks Island, arrived az
the port of Biakeley, Alabama, on the LIST
inst. and states, that the dav before the
NIarcelluS left Turks Island, Spanish brig ar
rived there, which reported that a change of
government had taken place ut Porto Rico,
aud that the Patriot l,g had been hoistcd--
Capt. u. is not in possession Of the particulars,
but adds, tiiit the truth of the report was not
doubted at Turks Island"
The report may be- correct, b,,t We have had
direct accounts from Turks Island much later.

Santiago de Chill Gazette of the eth o!

letter of the Governor of Valparaiso, to the

Goth October.
"The commander of the British sloop OF

Aranco in three days passage, has informed!
me that Bcnavdcs -recrossed the Biobio with
about 900 men, and he presumed for Talca-
huana, but that, 1T the latter place there "a
waited him more than 500 of our troops, and

above for the information of your excellency

JOSE IGNACIO ZENTENO." e
The letter containing the above, adds, '
might have mentioned that the CHILEAN Gov
eminent had previously dispatched troops to
the South, which had destroyed a great part
oil ms force, and at last accounts were in hopes
experimenting Benavides himself"
Our readers may recoilcct, that among the
foreign news received via New York in the
beginning of February, there was a long and
interesting account of the suferings of the
crew of AN American whaling vessel, which Il
whale had struck SO violently rs To cause her
to founder. Three of that crew chose to be
left on Ducie's Island, rather than venture
with the Others in an open boat they suffered
great hardshps on the island, aud were near
perishlng when rescued by Capt. Raine, oi
the British ship Surrv, who was highly prais-
ed for his "diSintercSted humanity in thus vol
unfairly snatchine three fellow mariners from,
obstruction" 1T now appears, from the fol-
loving article, that captain Raine's humanity,
IKE Lord Cochrane's patriotism, required to
be stimulated by interest
a letter from Valparaiso, received at Prov
itie@"?, states that Capt. RidgeIy, oflhe Con
s.sllaiien, deserves the credit of relieving the
three men belonging to the ship Essex, who
were left on Duce's island. The letter asserts
that Capt. Ridgey paid Capt Rayne, of the
English ship Surrey S40O TO call at the island
| and take them off:-and that Captain Rayne
could not be persuaded TO perform this ac,
until prompted by an offer of money. Cant
Rayne was highly extoled by the people o
Fort jackson for his great humani,y I'M 50 vo
