The quallic ations of the British act

we are not particularly informed Of
One of its provisions, however, seems to
be that during the period Of their APP

of inilicting corporeal punishment upon
them is taken away from the master and
conferred upon the magistrates. In ref
erence to this subject, the Barb, dian of
the Goth ultimo remarks -
"Near as the first of August is, we
think that proprictors would rejoice at
this plan being at once the law-but with
the slaves generally we apprehcnd the
alteration is unpalatable. They seem
to dread this change Of authority. We
have heard of one respectable proprietor
having explained to the slaves under his
charge the approaching change of sys-
tenn ; and on his proposing to them to give
up at once the power OF punishing them
himself, and referring them, when they
to "A magistrate, they, one and
all expressed their aversion to being
Of before magistrate, and
begged him to continue TO punish them
in his own way, if they offended. The

tho farmers fine opportunity to secure
their unusual heavy crops of hay. The

warmer than usual, and Indian corn,
which, at the close of June was very
backward, and had a sickly appearance,
has come forward with an almost unpre-

forward as in the average of seasons, is
very large, and promises, with continued
good weather, an abundant crop. Veg

had not suffered much, and yesterday,
we had shower, and indications Of a
