Kingston, Jamaica, Feb. 10.
The Honorable Edward Jordon, G. B.,
died on Monday, the 6th instant, at his
residence in ST. Andrew. The deceased
was a gentleman Of colour, and connected
with the history of this colony for up
wards Of 80 years, during which period
he occupied several important places in
its councils.-His public life commenced
with the Watchman newspaper, and he
was brought prominently before the coun-
try on a charge of having published a
reasonable article in that paper; but such
was the temper Of the times that the
community was in danger of serious re-
suits. which were happily prevented by
the activity of the military and naval au-
thorities on the one hand, and The verdict
of the Jury acquitting Mr.. Jordon of the
charge on the other. Shortly after this
he was elected Member of Assembly for
Kingston, aud held the seat in the House
of Assembly till the year 1854, when he
was called 10 the Legislative Council, and
subsequently received the title OF Com

From the European Mail.

A very serious accident occurred to
the mail steamer Pereirs, which left Havre
for New York on January Is. Six days
after her departure, in about 400 w. lou
gitude, she encountered a terrific hurri-
cane and heavy seas, one of which, esti-
mated to weigh 700 tons, fell on board,
iuficting the most serious injury on the
ship, and killing and wounding several of
the crew and passengers. The Pereire
was Immediately put about, and was
brought back to port. The GOODNESS
and skill Of the Captain, Duchesne. are
highly spoken of, and an address has
been presented to him by the passengers.

COSTA RIGA.

The Republic remains quiet.
The commission appointed for the pur-
pose has presented a project for the new
Constitution, taking as a basis that which
existed on the 1st of November.
The Secretary of State has entered
into a contract with Edward REILLY, Al
exander Hay, Mutt Mccartney, and Da-
yid Vickers, citizens of the United States
of America, for the opening Of a railroad
across Costa RIGA from Limon Bay to
the Gulf of Nicoya. The capital is to be
$4,000, 900 divided in actions of 500
each !; the headquarters of the Company
to be in New York, Philadelphia or Bos-
ton.
The Company is to commence its sur
veys within three months after the ratlt-
cation of the contract, and within the
-four following months, must spend at
least $50, 900 in actual work on the road,
and the first thirty miles must be finished
in complete order from Limon Bay with
in eighteen months after the signing OF
the contract.
The Government is to advance certain
amounts in bonds, as a loan to the com-
pany.in proportion to the work done, taxi
ing the road as security for payment, and
guarantees an interest of six per cent.
per annum on the 100000 900 after the
road is completed.
The contract is dated 9th Januarys 1869.

During the week since our last advi-
ces. Congress had been busy on several
important subjects, among them the re-
form of the electoral law. The minority
Of the Chamber supported the article of
the bill proposed by the committee,
which admits q knowledge Of reading and
writing as a legal presumption that the
person desiring to be qualified is in re-
ceipt of the income required by the Con-
stilutlon, but the majority approved a
proposition made by the ex-Mlnister Of
Finance to restrict the right of suffrage
by squariDg it with the Constitution, SO
far as it prescribes the way in which the
candidate is to prove that he follows the
profession, business, or calling or pos
sesses the capital and income required
by it.
The press advocates a more liberal
suffrage. The "Mercurio" a ys:-This
result has satisfied neither the majority
of the Chamber nor the Opposition cir
Giles who aim to give the people a larger
share in their elections.
The long announced resignation Of the
Minister of Finance, Don Alexandra Reyes,
has at last taken place, and Don Melchor
Concha y Toro has been appointed TO the
vacant post.
The circumstances under which this
youthful fnancier assumes the weighty
charge of the public exchequer are any
thing but propitious. His predecessor
bequeathes him the colossal debt of
1914, 10000 due by the State and for this
years budget a probable deficit of over
$1,000, 900.
1t is however hoped that by able man
agement and experience in financial mat
tiers he may be able to place the Treasu-
ny in a more favorable position.
The trade of the country is daily in
creasing in extent and importance. The
following statistics, furnished by the Gus
tom House at Valparaiso, exhibit the
amount of business transacted during the
past year:
"In 1867, the Custom House issued
47,755 policies.
In 1868 the number issued was 1924

On the eve OF the Presidential election
an attempt was made to create a revolu-
ton in order to bring Gen. Savalla for
ward as a candidate. This resulted In a
street row in the capital, in which two
persons we're killed. Much blame is
attached to Savalla for the course he
pursued in the matter, having pretended
all the time to be q friend and partizan
of President Cerna, who was reelected
by a large majority. At latest accounts
tranquility was fully restored, and the
election of Cerna gave general s~atisfac-
ton.
NICARAGUA.
We have confirmation of the report
published liz a previous issue that an
attempt had been made to poison President
Guzman and his family on the 4th inst.
The poison was arsenic placed IN a plate
of pineapple sweetmeats, and was de-
tected by DR.. Mayerga, who was called
in to attend the sufferers. The victims
have all recovered from their attack, and
the greatest sympathy has been expressed
for the President throughout the country.
We have not heard Of any person being
arrested for the atrocious crime.
