Tne " witness " concludes an article on The
political struggle in Barbados, as follows;
No incident in the late struggle has excited
more disappointment than the malignant aud dis.
reputable attacks made on Mr.. Semper, the At.
torney General of Barbados-who is probably the
0blest advocate in the West Indies. Because
this gentleman courageously discharged the
duties entailed on him by his official position,
he BIAS been assailed with the most disgracoful
aorlmony. The Barbados Press imputed TO him
the grossest ignorance of his profession when
IN the case Of a disputed Election to the late
House Of Assembly no differed in opinion from
the local wiseacres. When, however. the case
was laid before the English law officers, and
their opinions triumpbantIy vindicated the cor
rectness of Mr.. Semper's views, and proved Mes
sleurs Reeves, Darlington, Phillips and others
to be lamentabIy deficient in legal knowledge
on constitutional law, tie local press refused to
publish this justification Of the man whom
they had slandered For any temporary an.
nOyanOe Mr.. Pope Hennessy may have suffered,
he has this consolation, that he has put an end
to the wrongs of the past and opened UP a new
future of llfe-hope to the humber classes, by
whom bis name will long be held in grateful
remembrance; and that when the mists O passion
are dlssipated all interested 10 the prosperity Of
the West Iudies will recognize in him a true
benefactor-although hemay now appear to be
opposed to their interest.

~BARBADIAN L~ABOURERS.
FROM the Demerara Ttmes.


Mr.. Russell said at a recent meeting Of the
Demerara Court Of Policy that be was afraid
that hon. members were not sufficiently a.
quainted with the condition of the laborers in
Barbados. Some few years ago be went over
there, and made himself acquainted with the
position OF these people, and the result Of his
observations was a foroible remembrance of
his native country [Sootlend From what be
had seen of the peasah:ry Of Barbados, be
thought it was idle to expect that these people
were going to leave their %"little Shelters as
they called them, and come here In families
for they were very comfortable indeed where
they were. Stories about poverty and that
sort Of thing had frequently reached as, but It
was a great mistake to suppose that they were
all true. He found tie schools were exceeding.
ly we'll attended the children were very dill.
gent, and exhibited every disposition to learn.
The Barbadian peasant, pure and simple, was
not to be equalled for Industry and perseverance.
and it was creditable to see the way in which
they reared their pigs, sheep. and cattle, and
made their manure for the efficient cultivation
of the small quantities of ground which. they
held. There q man held a few acres OF land
and paid perhaps FIVE pounds per acre ; upon

immense loss. The Montenegrins are also aban-
doning their strategical positions.
The statement that Lord Odo Russell was about
to be despatched by the English Government on
a special mission to Constantinople is denied.
The articles published in the German papers
on the occasion of the anniversary of the battle
of Sedan are Of a very couciliatory character.

The Hon. It. BERKELEY, in the course of
recent proceedings of the Leg. Council, gave
notice OF bis intention to introduce at the next
meeting, a Bill to compel the Registration Of
Newspapers published in this Presidency. Our
readers will remember that a measure to effect
this object was introduced by the Vice Presi-
dent at the last meeting Of the Federal Coun-
Gil, bnt was Withdrawn at the instance of the
Attorney General, Mr.. Sheriff, who considered
thas such q Bill should be submitted to the
local Legislatures. The Hon. member, Mr..
Berkeley, senr., in bringing the subject before
the House, and setting forth his reasons for
proposing such a m~easure-which, in the alb.
sence of its provisions might appear to be one
tending to hamper the Press, and restrict its
liberty-ref7rred TO the course pursued hy
certain writer's in the "Voice Of The People,"
screening themselves behind individuals who
were from tune to time put forward as publish

ANTIGUA.
From the ANTIGUA Times.

For the past fortnight ending Aug. goth
the weather has been dry and intensely hot,
and from present appearance not likely to
change Immediately. There has been little or
no rain since the 18th inst. and to this date the
rainfall from the first Of August was 2.68 in
the city, in some parts Of the country it was
much less than that. The manufacture of
Sugar is still going on, on several estates, aud
for that purpose the weather Is suitable,
where steam power is used. The wind has
been weak and variable during this week. This
however is the season when in these ATTITUDES
atmospheric changes are sudden and frequent,
therefore carefully noted, in order to guard as
much as possible against loss of property BY
hurricanes.

Day before yesterday, being the birth
day OF Her Majesty the Queen, the usual
ceremonial arrangements on the occasion
Of that anniversary were carried out.
The Military Band played the national
anthem and other airs, at on early hour in
the morning, o little later the Royal
Salute was fred, and the customary Levee
at Government House with Luncheon
was held at 2 o'clock, the Military being
drawn up as usual in front of this building,
while Her Majesty's health was drunk and
a salute fred from the fort. In the even
ing the Band went round playing their
best tunes, bat the weather was not as
propitious for outdoor amusemen! Is as it
has been for a rather longer time than is
compatible with the best prospects for next
crop. This kind of disappointment we
believe no one will regret.

Caution to Farmers,
RED WING, Dec. 18th, 1877

RED WING, Dec. 18th, 1876.
Mr.. Editor:-With your permission,
| would like to caution farmers against
paying any penalty notes, or rather the
penalty on such, either printed or writ
ten, that have been in circulation IN
this vicinity, or any other. What
mean is, notes such as some that have
been taken for agricultural machinery,
with printed attachment, inserting a
penalty Of 5 per. cent or more, if the
note is not paid at maturity. had a
case of this sort, tried before the dis
trict court; and the court decided that
it could not be collected, (that Is the
the penalty); the plaintiff paying the
costs. Do not let any banker, eonsta-
BILE, or sheriff, scare you into it, they
will not sue it, if you will pay the face
of the note, and the proper interest.
Brother farmers, don't let them humbug
you; pay just what you are entitled to
pay; nothing more, and remember who
are trying to both humbug and cheat
you. l shall probably next week give
you all the particulars of my case-the
attempted cheat together-with the
names of the parties who attempted to
enforce it, their manner of proceeding
etc. Very Respectfully Yours,

Mr.. Abram Hewitt, son-in law
of Peter Cooper, and prime minister
to Samuel J. Tilden, recently had a
conversation with President Grant
about the result Of the presidential
election in the Southern States and
especially in South Carolina. He
afterwards made, such reports of
what the President had said to him
as to lead democrats to conclude
that their pretensions in the South
ern States would be supported by
the Administration, and it is posi-
bic that his reports influenced Wade
Hampton's conduct as we'll as that
Of the Carolina rifle clubs, and led
them to proceed to greater ex-
tremes than they otherwise: would
have done Subsequently, Mr..
Hewitt has had another converse.
ton with the President, when the
latter gave him to understand dis
tinctly that he had misrepresented
the import of the former conversa-
tion materially, and that the admin
istration would not recognize any
other authority in South Carolina
than that which appeared to be le-
gally elected. And, likewise, that
such legally constituted authority
would be sustained by the federal
forces if necessary.
