From Calls Ncws letter.

HIS EXCELLENCY SIR WILLIAM GREY.
His Excellency is slowly gaining in populari-
ty. Ho has been apparently Sow in action,
evidently from a desire to observe and gather
for himself, that hs action, when it came, might
be suited to the peculiar circumstances Of the
Colony. Lady Grey receives visitors twice a
week now, at Kuutsford, and Sir William
also. Lady Grey was present nj a Ball given
by the Jamaica Club, and both were present
at the Scotch Games on st. Andrews Day.
His ExcelIency's recent
APPOINTMENT OF MR.. HENRY LlvINGsT0N
From the Chief Clerk-hiP Of the General
Post Office to be Treasurer for the Colony has
been extremely popular, and perhaps the most
happy hit that has been made for some years
past, first, because it has beeRa richlymerited pro-
motion, and in the second place, because it
was wholly unlocked for, either by Mr.. Living
ston or the public. 1t has been one Of those
gracious acts of His Excellency, in which be
has sought of himself to discover merit, aud TO
reward it when, for q series of years ID had
been unfortunately overlooked.
THE PROMOTION OF MR.. ALFRED |HITCHINS.
In the Customs Department has been equal
lY popular, because Mr.. Hitchins bears in man
ner and department the courtesy and habits
Of a gentleman, while bis zeal in the service,
and the readiness with which he turns his
KnOWleug0 ana euucdClOu TO account E0en IL
is called into use by the chiefs of bis depart
ment, most certainly merited the attention of
the administration There are few indeed
who know Mr.. Hitchins, who will not express
delight that these services are recognized. It
is not necessary that every Custom House Off
Ger should be an Individual of low and repug-
nant habit anxious and persistent to dive bis
nose into every lady passengers )reticule, as
she disembarks from a steamer, or proving OBJ
structive and annoying at every turn, chsrg-
ing duties on every gentleman's wardrobe who
IS respectable enough to have more than a dozen
shirts, upon the plea of zealin "protecting the
revenue" The Civil Service of this island
should be marked by the character of our pub
lie officers, and men who have no social status
and who bring the service into contempt should
be promoted where their presence would be
less offensive to well-bred Society. The pro.
motion Of Mr.. Hitebins holds out a cheering
prospect, that the 'retrograde steps Of former
administration in unfortunate admissions to

The Christmas festivities PRscd of quietly
and cheerfully. The Decembar assizes we're
held the week before Christmas there we're
two cases Of murder, but vordiots of mauslaugh-
ter were returned in each. The Grand Jury
in a presentment to the Judge complained Of
the unsatisfactory state of tho Jail, and the
large plumber of Juvenile criminals on the Ca
lendar-a reflection which was prompted by
certain suggestions of the Bishop in a recent
report on the alleged failure Of the Juvenile
Department. of the Board Hall Prison to act
either as a deterrent to crime Or a Reformatory
for the juvenile portion Of tbs criminal popu-
lation. Light showers have fallen throughout
the month sufficient for the planting Of the
young crop of 1876, and for the riponiog of the
canes to be reaped this year.

A Man Burned Terribly by a Coal
Oil Explosion.

AT q quarter after o'clock last evening a
coal oil lamp exploded in the second story of
house No. PA Upper Rampant street, in a
room used as school room by Mr.. James
Collins. The lamp burst, scattering the oil
all over Mr.. Collins, setting his clothing on
fire. The frightened man rushed down the
steps into the street, and ran for about one
block, the'f ,mes enveloping his entire body.
He was followed by citizens, who sue
ceeded in overtakipg him and threw him into
the gutter. This only added fuel to the fire,
and the suff-rer would have been burned to
death had it not been for negro woman who
came to his rescur, and, Immediately appre-
clating the situation, seized him and tore his
burning clothing off and threw the N into the
treet.
Mr. Collins was then taken to drug store
near by, where his burns were dressed. He
was then conveyed home. Though not of
dangerous nature, his facs and hands were
very severely burned, and his recovery will
be slow.
