BsLnE, British Ho' Aduras Jan 8, 1867.
For the last Nv weeks this ony has bean in state
OF wild excitement
The Chnhahu Indians, unIer their chief Canue. in.
vaded our northern bound aries taking some Of our ms
hogany cutters prisoners and demanded sums Of money
from each gang OF mahogany cutters in that vicinity
and threatened to Destroy all property there II their
demands were nok Immediately complied with. Our
troops were sent1p to whip them, to keep them in
check and desatches Immediately sent 10 Jamaica
for assistance, via New Orleans, Havana and by .
schooner direct TO Kingston. Meanwhile, our troops
while resting after march Of sixteen hours were met
by a party OF Indians, and, after firing few rounds
ordered to retreat which they did after the order
was twice given in a most dsorderly and dsgraceful
manner their officers It is said, taking the lead, and
leaving their men to take care OF themselves
On the arrival Of this news In Belize martial law was
proclaimed and subsequently four other proclamatsns
made
These measures the defeat of troops and the
certainty Of the fate Of company OF regulars and
another Of volunteers sent the Rio Honda TO cut
Of the retreat ofthe Indians have kept this town in very
Our Christmas and New Year have been miserably dun
and Improbable and still suffering with the
odious and oppressive martial law hanging over our
heads
Almost all business has been suspended, and some Of
our merchants their clerks and others have enrolled
themselves as civic guard. Thus passed the month
of December. The tramp Of patrolmen heard dur.
ing the whole night and men pressed and made to
do public work without pay. No person allowed TO
leave town without q pass and as q general thing
pass exceedingly difficult to be obtained. This
sheer and useless oppression and II people had not
been most loyal people, might have resulted most dis
asrousy But the people bore their burdens without
murmur and submitted TO heavy exactons, sometimes
without provisions or the means TO procure thsm with
much grumbling when they might have ended their
trouble and their rulers in very short time by using
their strength.
This colony has suffered, and will now have to pay,
which will be small and the treasury nearly
empty and taxes were increased last year. the settling Of
accounts will be no pleasant matter. Governor Austin
Is not popular, and nine tenths OF this
munity do not the matter he docs 1t will require
the exercise Of much ability to get through with this
martial law business with credit TO himself the troops
or to the colony.
We still have martial law, although her Majesty %
steamship Jason has arrived here with troops and
another ship with more soldiers daily expected.
Business begins to revive, but still is dull in COM
parison with former years.

instruments of the kind.
We cannot suggest what is wanting to make Il mu-

to admit that the limit of improvement can ever be

Before they had brought their Pianos to their pre-

titon with instruments of the best makers of this
country and Europe, and received the reward Of mcr-
it, over all others the celebrated Worlds Fair. 1t
but justice say tnat iudgmentthus pronounced
has not been o1erruled by the musical world.
still, by the Improvements lately applied by them
to their Pianos 1t is admitted that perfect in
strunlcnt has been made. They have accordingly
achieved the paradox of making excellence more
excellent. Surely, after this, they entitled to the
motto Excelsior" noyl+-ly
