FROM THE BAHAaAs.-By the Karnak we have
Nassau papers to the 10th inst inclusive. The Nassau
Guardian of the 4h has the following notice Of the de-
partue of Gov. Bayey, tour to the United States
and England:
"Gov. Bsyley being about to avail himself Of the
leave of absence granted him come time since by the
Secretary Of State for the Colonies becomes US, as
public journalists, to state that bis Excellency VIII
quit his Government for time under the most pleas
ing auspices the beneficial effect Of the various i'm
portant measures naugurated by him having already
become apparent. The fourirhng state Of the revenue
bears ample evidence to the prosperity OF the colony
the receipts for the Last quarter amounting 10 over
10000. -,
1.-THE Bahamas have steadily advanced in import
ance during bis Excelency's administration, for II
is principally to the Governors strenuous exertions
that we are indebted for the establishment OF steam
communication with the United States and this was
the poneer of other advantages which have
since accrued 10 the colony.
"The last census tables show, are Informed, that
there has been steady increase OF the population OF
the Bahamas which exceeds 80 600 touls, and we
are confident that In leaving his government undeI
these auspicious circumstances, his Exceency cannot
be otherwise than gratiiied.'
During the absence of Governor Bayey, the govern
ment will be administered by Mr. Nesbt Lieutenant
Governor of the island of St. Vincent.
The Guardian of the LIST, in speaking of the pre-
sent condition of the Southern States, says:
awe perceive with much pleasure that, in conse-
quence Of the present unhappy state OF America the
cotton company of Jamaica have determined on
Immediately laying out several thousand acres OF
laud in the cultivation of cotton. Would It not be
desirable for Bahaman planters TO turn come OF the
waste lands Of this colony to the same account r.
