VERY LATE FROM JMAIACA.

The ship Early II days from Kingston, brings
papers to the 21st January. The Kingston papers
cOrroberae the account gwen below, in the letter OF
of our correspondent. The Discrimination Of the
manumiIted population TO work rapidly increas-

Christmas.
The accounts from all parts of The Island mos,
disastrous. At ST. James's the iaborers have been
offered five shngs per day 10 boiler men, and halt
dollar to common laborers during the crop. These
offers. though rnnously exttavagan,, were refused.
The field Iaborers demand five shIlinss per day. aud
rather than pay al that rate. the planters, is said,
will let The crop rot on the ground.
On the coffee plantations things. If possible, are
worse. The coffee was fast rpening, aud some oft
beginning to drop, but the Blacks though paid the
wages they asked, would not work than third
part OF the day. il this course was pursued. large
portion OF The crop would be lost.
The failure Of the corn ciup IN nearly all the par
ishes had occasoned an extraordinary rise in the
price. Foreign or inferior quality was selling at u.
leven shillines sterling per bushel, and that grown
on the island brought sixteen, with the prospect
OF belng higher, unless speedy supply should come
from some of the neighboring islands.
