Our Governor of the"
Danish Westindia Islands.
According to the order Of the day the Coun-
Gil proceed to:
l, communication from the Governor con-
corning the supply of Meal on Bureau from
the Colonial Treasury.
The case was treated within closed doors,
Rules of Business s 7.
The Council resolved, unanimously with IL
votes, to authorize the Government to withdraw
the furnishing of 500 puncheOns of meal from
the 1900 puncheons contracted for with Messrs.
Walker and Hill, and that the price for the 700
puncheOns to be received he fixed at $24 pr.
puncheOn.
2, Continuation of the End discussion of the
proposal for an extra Money-Bill to the Bud
get for 1S69-7O, Item D. 7: Military Ex-
penseS.
The following amendment was introduced by
His Excellency the Governor
"The Colonial Council gives its consent, that
the purveyors of the g~arrisOns continue to get
compensation from the Colonial Treasury for
the difference between the price of butter in the
c%anteens as fixed by Government, say 42S cts.
pr. Pd., and the price which the purveyors could
demand agreeable to their contracts, in the
same manner as has been done since the 9th
of May agreeable to the Councils resolution in
meeting of the 10th June and that the amount
requisite for such purpose be betrayed sub Item
D. I c.: Military Expenses, from the sum al
lowed for victualing privates and non-commls-
stoned officers"
The case was discussed within closed doors,
Rules of Business 5 7.
The Council adopted the amendment with 10
votes against l.
3, Electien of members to convene with the
Commission to be appointed by the Govern
ment to report on the supply of water for
drinking in the towns.
His Excellency referred to the discussion on
the subject in the last meeting and stated, that
on the Council appointing the number of mem
bers, in or beyond the Council, that it may de-
sire to partake in the proceedings of the ON
mission, he would appoint the other members.
and for the rest inform the Commission of the
needful. He suggested for the Councils adop-
ton, if considered proper, to nominate 2 mem
bers for each of the towns.
The End member for Frederiksteds town
(Faber) observed, that it would probably be
proper, as suggested by His Excellency, to
aupoint 9 members for each of the towns, and
therefore proposed this measure.
After a short interval the Council resolved
unanimously to elect 9 members for each of the
towns; the result of the subsequent voting was
For ChriStiansted: W. Clindinen with IL votes.
c. c. Idskovdammen, D. NJ,
with 9 votes.
For Frederiksted G. Sarauw with 9 votes.

happy union wherein the Grown Prince has re-
Gently entered, is also in Our Westindia Islands

This road, starting from the southern term mus

men of this District, as 1t opens up a fertile
section of country, which has hitherto been
almost without value to jewellers on this side
OF the Poiomac by reason OF the diff uties Of
communication with il. The opening of
'hls turnpike will greatly prom ote the
interests OF the people of Washington and

Farmers IN that section will bring their pro tuc e

result OF this enterprise Will doubtless be the
Peopiins Of the section OF country through
which the road passes with industrious and
energetic farmers, the soil being very fertile,
and well ftted for the cultivation OF garden
products, as well as heavier crops. The value
OF the land will thus be enhanced, ami the
people Of Ihe adjoining counties of Virgins
will be equally benefited with cur citizens
The road will probably be cleared and grated
from the Aqueduct Bridge 10 Falls Church and
prepared for the surface dressing, IN about SIX
months from this date. The entire length OF
the MAN road will be about II miles, and we
trust that nothing will delay Its early com.

THE NBw FRENCH Observation-Disclosures
new Cabinet does not, after AL, seem to be
much OF Concession TO the dem inds of the
people, as expressed by the recent elections:
and the indications are that France Is to suffer
the evils of personal government for some
time longer. FORBADE Ia Roquette, the new
Minister Of the Interior, has been for MANY
years prominent political writer. When the
usurpation was new he was ITS enemy; but ne
Is now liberal supporter Of the Empire, and
believes that despoti>m may be, and ought to
BE-, gradually transformed INTO constitutional
and popular monarchy, by extending the
responsibility Of the Executive and the
power OF the representatives, Of the people.
Pierre Magne, the new Minister OF Finance, is
an old friend and favorite OF the Emperor, and
held the same ONCE to which he is now ap-
pointed from lo54 to I-60. He has distinguished
bus iness capacities; and II is this that secures
his appointment now. Marshal Adolphe Mel
remains IN the War Department. His unques-
toned bravery and skill in battle have made
him popular; and as the m asses in France still
passionately love military glory, the Minister
Of War may strengthen the administration by
representing this feeling. In politics he is but
the Emperor's soldier; and his inhaencs will
be In favor OF fighting Democracy, instead of
yielding 10 it. The other members of the new
Cabinet. 50 Tar as they are know in this coun.
try, have generally sustained the empire from
the beginning; although none OF them have
made themselves so obnoxious to the press and
the people, especially OF Paris, by actively
sharing In repressiye and des potic measures,
as some Of those who retire.

with deep regret we Announce the death OF
Colonel L. A. Whitley. at his late resideace on
~ street, near Pennsylvania avenus, in this
city, AT about : o'clock last evening. Colonel
Whitley was well known throughout the
country as an BILE and prominent journalist,
having been connected with tie press in va
rious sections OF the country for several year,
past. He was a genial aud warm hearted gen
tisman. and made hosts Of friends wherever
his lot was cast. He possessed decided ability,
and as writer was keen and tore bile. Colo
mel Whitley was born in the State of Kentucky
IN the year ISIS, and was therefore, about forty
four years of sge Al the tine OF his death He
was educated in Maryland. When a Young man
he showed evidences OF consumption. and in
las wentto Mexico for the benefit OF his health
and returned much improved. Soon afterwards
he went TO Louisville, Kentucky, where he

papers of the State. About the commence nest
OF the war, he came TO this CITY as a correspou.

the chief OF the Herald bureau here, and re.
maire1 In that position for some time. He was
more generally known, however, as one of the
editors Of the National IntetiJencer and as
manager and editor of the Sunday H.rrld
He had been sufferer for several years past
from the inIoads of consumption, but was con-
fined to his room but short time before his
death. which was finally caused by that terri.
bic disease. After the suspension of ths Iaieui.
gencer, which he deeply regretted, be seemed to
sink rapidly. He leaves young widow,
formerly Miss Bradford, of Ksntucky,) and
two daughters by aformer wife, who in their
bereavement have the sympsthies Of a very
large circle of friends. His funeral will take
place at one O'Clock to morrow, from his late

the bow OF The rear boat. An ordinary steering
