We have an arrival this morning from
La Guayra, with Mr.. Lobo, British Vice
Consul at that place as a passenger. Mr..
Loho we learn is the bearer of $4,000 in
money, and provisions amounting to as
much, collected for the relief of the suf-
ferers here. Our condition was so much
exaggerated by the news received at LA
Guayra, that it was decided to send Mr..
Lobo, who failing to find persons who
could administer these donations, he
would himself undertake that duty. We
hear that Mr.. Lobo, whilst finding that
much disaster has indeed attended us, is
nevertheless happy to find our condition
better than had been represented. Our
best thanks are naturally due TO the kind
doners for their donations. Since the
foregoing was in type we have been given
the correspondence relating thereto, which
will have a place in our next.-(Lbid,J

The present week has not been proli-
fc of incidents in this community. There
was a meeting of the Legislature on Mon
day, a report of the proceedings of which
will be found below. The most interest
ing occurrence at the meeting referred to
was the grant by unanimous vote of the
sum of 92O0 towards the relief Of the
storm-stricken inhabitants of the Virgin
Islands, a sum doubtless quite inadequate.

which with the knowledge of the impover-

this Colony. With much promptitude

eminent. Of this latter idea, as we have
already stated, and as the Papers Of Co.
penhagen state, there is no probability
since this Colony would be, more of ex-
pense than of advantage or gain, to Den
mark. Taking then into account the
great distance between the Danish West
indies and the Mother Country and the
shorter way to the American States,
whence protection could be more quick
ly gained than from Denmark, which no
bic Country, although consisting of q
small population, yet brave and generous,
has never denied the inhabitants of their
Westindia Possessions that care and at
t%ention, that they deserve yet, when one
reflects On the natural resources of this
Island, the geographical position of it,
the language used, the manners and Gus
toms observed; yea, even the commerce,
trade and navigation, that have, for many
long years, been carried on between the
Danish Westindia Islands and America,
it is not TO be wondered at, that the time
will shortly arrive, when this place will
change government, and be, like st.
Thomas and ST. Johns, one and the same
thing.

To tie Editor ofMe "St. 1HomG TGdendc."
Sir!-Within the brief period of one
year, st. Thomas has been sorely afflicted
with four fearful viSitations: cholera,
small poX, hurricane and earthquake. 1t
needs but a very few words to prove how
these vlSitations must have afflicted the
pockets of every one, whether in easy Or
INDECENT circumstances. Will it have the
effect. of inducing the Government to re-
fund the amount withdrawn from the Co.
lonlal Chest to meet the protested bills of
Mr.. j. j. LUND? Will the Government
considerably decline to receive our State
contribution for 1SG6-67 and 18G7-G8 ?
Are these measures not necessary, if only
to relieve the inhabitants, totally of the
buildings and rental taxes for this year ?
the Government must feel that the
inhabitants, Sorely stricken as they have
been, need relief in one way or another.
/ hope these considerations are not being
lost sight Of by the Governor.
Yours, respectfully,
A LARGE TAX PAYER. AND A
LARGE SUFFERER AS WELL.

TUESDAY, 10TH DECEMBER 1867

AT this moment we write, jeopardy,
fear and trembling are the natural causes,
from the late calamity. The mind of
man is, as a consequence thereof, much
alarmed and, so to speak, awakened
thoroughly by the fact, that his exist
ence here is but for a short time-a mere
journey to another place.
With great pleasure and much s~atlsfac-
ton do we see the people of all denomi-
nations go to their several places of wor-
ship, every afternoon at five O'Clock; and
truly with much devotion! But Of these
people we see only the low and hum
Bile. Those in higher stations, instead of
showing a good example, forget, SEEM
ingly, that they are also mere creatures,
who, forgetting their littleness, assume a
right Of their supposed greatness.
Since our last issue, nothing has hap
pened, to give any great alarm. Slight
shocks continue; but the nights are now
passed off without much fear-more con-
idence being enjoyed, repose is taken.
The Island, we believe, throughout,
has received good rains-showers upon
showers have fallen yesterday and to-day.
A strange thing we have to state; and
we had nearly forgotten it, but, being SO
remarkable, we cannot omit mentioning
it. 1t is this Ever since the Earth
quakes, the water from all the wells
here III town and elsewhere is salt
though not quite so salt as the sea.
And what is more remarkable! Wells
in the Eastend of the island, that were
formerly giving no water, are now spring
ing abundantly.
We have had reports from Frederik-
sted, and from authentic sources too,
stating that three very severe shocks of
Earthquake were felt there last night.
THE agitation prevalent now is, whe-
Their this Island is not included in the sale
of the Sister Islands-St. Thomas and St.
Johns OF whether the nhabltants. of this,
place are to be the

TO the foregoing must be added articles
of provisions sent by Jamaica and Guade-
loupe. For these kind acts Il grateful
public feels deeply indebted.
A committee we learn has been ap-
pointed by the Vice-Governor to act with
him in distributing these donations. 1t
is with the Committee, in our opinion,
that the trouble devolves. 1t will be for
it to determine how these means, or any
other, that may yet be coming, are to be
appropriated. AS a general thing, people
here, even when sufferers, are not fond Of
taking charity, and the consequence is,
that frequently people with little claim
to consideration, but without delicqcy,
are the principal recipients of what is to
be given. 1t would perhaps not be amlss,
if a little. delay vas adopted, only aiding
those for the moment who have lost their
clothes, or driven from their lodgings.

proprietors for a heightened time and at
a low rate of interest. In this manner
