From Martinique.

A letter dated st. Pierre, July /, says: With
but very few exceptions the negroes continue to remain
idle throughout the island and Of what remains OF the
present crop great portion will be lost. French yes
sells continue to arrive from France In ballast and with
no specie. Very little sugar s sent to town. conse
quently there is to ship More than twothirds OF
the vessels now in port about twenty in NUMBER will
have TO return without ireghts These continual arr
walls from France without provisions and merchandise
of any kind great apprehensions OF famine dur
ing the approaching hurricane months and the only as
sistance expected from Government. 70 remedy this
evil will be the opening OF the ports OF the island In
deed although for the present our market s pretty vel
supplied, still, before two months from now, we shall
be in the greatest need Of all articles OF first necessity
such as -four beef candles soap, &c &c; and we must
look 10 the United States for supply since Il VIII un
doubtedy be cut off from France. This will, in the
event Of occurring be very favorable to shippers in
the United states We have but few troops on the lsl
and, but some are expected to arrive shortly from
France The National Guard has been constituted IN
this town for the greater protection Of the property and
peace of mind OF It's inhabitants.
