The Raw islands.

Capt. Kemp, of the schooner Amelia Ann
direct from the Bay Islands, has communicated
to the editor of the Key of the Gulf, ~interes~
ting facts concerning these Islands, which have
recently played such all important part in the
diplomatic world, but of which we really know
so little. y
The Bay islands as such mentioned in the
British Warrant Of 1852, are six in number
--Ruatan, Guanaja, Utila, Barbaretta, Helena
and Morat. Ruatan, the largest, is about
twenty-five miles long and three broad. 1t
has running through its whole extent a high
ridge, covered with pine, the washings of
which pc rpetually ~fertilize the cultivable land
on the coast. The population of this island is
about 1900, that Of Utilla, the next in size, on
ly 100. principally from Grand Cayman and
lIondur sin part negroes from Jamaica.
On each Of these two larger islands custom
houses are now established; the import duties
being two per cent on all merchandise, in addi-
tion TO port charges. The trade is principally
with the British settlement at Belize, Hondus
ras, Both have two safe, capacious and deep
harbors to which the largest ships of war may
have ingress or egress by night orby day.
Capt. K. represents the soil of these islands
marvetously ferti e, we'll watered, and capable
of producing tropical fruits in the greatest lux
u%riance. Raatac and Utilla alone, he thinks,
could be made TO produce more fruit annually
than is shipped from the port of Havana
Wood and granite are also found in the greats
est abundance on these islands, both of which
could easily be put in a state Of defence. The
climate is extremely healthy, resembling that
Of the Florida Keys. Directly in the path of
our trade across the Isthmus, the Bay Islands
are, adds the writer, 'all that our worst enemies
could desire, not only in geographical position
but 10 resources. Pic.

crosse Tete RAILROAD.

The Gazette and Comet, in an article reIas
tive to the completion Of this road, thus con-
cludes:
The first object of those who were its orlgi-
majors ia now accomplisheG-a means to ship
their produce, and receive plantation supplies
at pleasure. Hence for the future, they will
not take the responsibilities which heretofore
thew have assumed. The planters on Crosse
'Feie. now feel independent. Their ice casks
arc daily being sent to and from the river, and
the fish in the New Orleans market on Sum
day morning, is elegantly served on the table
of some Crosse Tete planter on Monday, hav-
ing been in the ice cask the while. The press
ent agent, I'D. Slack, has performed, and is
doing more than all others. His anxiety to
havea an outlet for his own crop, caused him to
accept the position, and in mud and rain, cold
and hot, he has eneFgetically been at work.
He is now conductor, treasurer, clerk, somer
times engineer, baggage master, and general
agent for every body, and gives entire ~satisfac-
ton. We can testify to his promptness in
collection, as we saw him collect of a beauti>
full young widow her full fare, and forgefting
VIC were san editor and an invited guest" den
manded our ticket, which not being produced
we were forced to hunt our purse, which fors
tunately contained enough to save US. With
such for agent, success is written in advance
upon any project undertaken. But the mer-
chants of New Orleans and Baton Rouge, and
the planters and large landhOlders beyond the
Crosse Tete, will now be looked to, for the
means to carry on the work. We learn from
Mr.. Slack that two or three of the directors
would visit Opelousas in July, for the purpose
Of presenting the question to the people of st.
Landry. We hope for such a response, as will
place the entire road under contract at once.
The editor, in the above, has in some way
mixed up Mr. J. D. with Mr.. Chas. A. Slack.
