James Robbins, Of National avenue, has been
missing for three days, but there Is no anxiety
around his house to learn his fate. His wife
knows wEat caused him to disappear, and she is
willing to let him get good ready to come
back. Robbins married q lone widow about
four months ago, and they had not been welded
two weeks wucn he gave her 4 bcating., She
overlooked it then, thinking he would soon tone
down, but in week more be blackcd her eyes.
In brief, Robbins turned out to be brute of u
husband, and the e1-widow had the sympathy
Of all the ncighbors. She is said to be meek
and humble in spirit, and Robbins had no tx
cuse tor his brutality. Four or FIVE days ago he
knocked her down and started off up town, and
the wife crlwle I over to butchers to see
ABOUT having Robbins arrested. The but cher,
who weighs 100 pounds and has fist like 8
maui, knew a better way than going to the
poll.e, and he unfolded plan.
When Robbins reached home that evening
the house was dark, and the butcher, dressed in
W"man's clothes and with his jaws tied up, sat
in the rockingham.
sWhy in blazes isn't supper ready!" howlcd
Robbins as he stood in the door.

The butcher groaned again.

see about that. Just take this, will You!''
lie struck out, but the disguised butcher
caught his wrist, sprn,1g up, md there was fun
IN that cottage. He chokeu Robbins almost to
death, tiod him up In hard knots and united
him, drew him around BY the heels aud hair,
and finally picked him up and tossed him over |
the fence into tie mud. Tie wife-bcater had
kept up a steady yelling from the drst attack,
and as lie rose IRON tt e mud and sped down the
street he seemed to think that Sitting Bulls
whole fighting force were after him. at II
o'eIotk that night he entered Michigan avenue
saloon and told story about six men robbing
him, and half an hour Later, as be was prowl'ng
around she'd to find place to sleep, a police |

A quantity Of oavo,earth or guano, the deposit
OF ages, was lately discovered in the islands
estimated By Governor Robinson at 100000
tons, and knowing no better they granted a
seven years monopoly of it to q wide awake
Yankee house, for 6I00 a year rent, with q
royalty OFFS. per ton. This house ships off
$4,000 tons a year, for which in the States
they obtain from Ct to 9l2 ton. What

gr0Ph (2lst. March), does the neglect teach
the inhabitants of suoh regions. No one can
estimate their hidden wealth, or guess in what
quarter it lies. Finds fully equal to the
'caye-earth may be discovered at any moment
and then the question is simply, who is to pro-
fit by them2" The Bahamas Government
should impose an export tax on the material

From Calls Ncus Letter.

The past fortnight has been changeable in
point Of weather. In the parishes of ST. Ann
and T%relawny, they have had no rain at all,
while in all the other parishes fine showers
have fallen, and in most of them strong winds
have prevailed.
The Legislative Council continues its sit.
tings A bill for the protection of Jamaica Rum
has been introduced by the Hon. Geo. Solomon,
and is now before a select committee of the Coun-
Gil. lis object Is to prevent foreign rum being
shipped from this island and put in the mar.
ket as " Rum from Jamaica, " when it may be
Cuban Rum via Jamaica. Some such recent
shipments have had the effect of dem0ralIzlng
the Jamaica Rum market in England, so that
buyers being doubtful, would not buy.
The "Rflize" successfully performed the Sc.
c0nd trip Of the Coasting Service round this Is
land, which still promises much for the country
Industries. She will never again visit the port
OF Falmouth, which is now excluded from the
Company's itinerary Of the Service.
Five hundred pounds have been placed upon
the estimates of this year for the construction
of a Morgue for Kingston, to which is to be
attached a postmortem room and a Coroner's
court room. The building is to be erected be-
tween the Slaughter House and the Gas Works
at the Westend. The citizens have been, for
two years past, praying for ESQ to erect a little
house to cover the dead discovered on our
streets but this was refused them, and now
when disgrace has attached itself to the re-
fusal, the Administrator Furnishes the memo
rialists and the city by making this little
but necessary requirement cost $500, like
the Buff Bay CooIio Hospital, and because
the Governor sanctions the prodigal e~xpenai-
ture Of our money the citizens are to be mulct
ito pay the piper"

Of an independent and integral part of the GEN.
~stitution it having become evident that the
Council composed as it is at present of Five
Official members bound to vote according to
the Governors instructions can not work in
harmony with the Assembly as may be seen in
the failure of two important measures, urgently
required, upon which some differences of opin-
ion exist between the Council and Assembly,
which neither party is willing to oonoede, as
reported ia our notice of the proceedings Of
the Assembly to-day in another column. If we
are suffered to retain our old constitution, and
to have a voice in the management of our own
affairs, the Legislative Council composed as
formerly of independent members, possessed Of
influence in the country and the confidence Of
the public is necessary to carry on the admins
tratiOn as the best advisers of the Governor In
matters of a local character, which in point of
fact form the chief part Of the business that is
to be done. This move Of the Governor we
regard as a hopeful sign Of Withdrawing from a
course Of action which bis own adherents con-
TESS must end sooner or later in a collapse Of
representative institutions, and our being re-
duced to the condition of a Crown Colony In
common with the other Islands around us.
From this dreary prospect we are glad to turn
to better hopes and |counSel5 in the future.

The crop is fast closing up by the end Of
this week only a few mills will continue at
work, the reaping being done with. The ship.
ments to date amount to $4,000 hhds. sugar
and $4,000 puns. m~olasses. We have had
heavy showers during the month, and about 5
inches rain, and there is every appearance of a
break up of the fine weather and the set in Of
the rainy season at an earlier period than
usual. This would be q great boon to the
country. Advantage has been taken of the
showers to plant corn and potatoes, where
slips for the last could be got, yams and other
vegetables. The young canes are recovering
and promise we'll. The labourerS at work
cheerful and satisfied now that confederation
is "done with" as they say. If we could only
get rid of our "reformers" and the rains keep
up, Barbados will soon hold her own as a sugar
colony. The markets are we'll supplied with
breadstuffs and other foreign produce, which
are cheap and plentiful. The weather is cool,
and the island healthy, with strong breezes
from The N. E., and the welcome intelligence
reaches JIG of abundance of rain to the North
ward in Antigua and st. Kits, which encour-
ages US to look for an early set In of the season
here.
With regard to our political troubles, we
hear. the Governor has sent to ask the old
members of Council, who resigned their seats
at the Board some days since, to resume them
which we hope may be the case, and the Legis-
latiVe Council be restored on its former footing

AS was anticipated at the early part of the
year, the crop has been decidedly short, and
no doubt, will be found some figures below the
average when the exports Of the year are
t0talIed. The small peasant pr0priet0rs have
probably suffered prop0rti0nalIy much moro
than the largo planters the extensi 70 emil

sufficient evidence of their disbursement
under the combined influence Of q bad season
and the low quotations Of sugar. To what
extent, il at all, the war which has lust broken
out in Europe will influence the sugar market
is difficult 30 say. 1t is as likely to cause fur
Their depression as the reverse. Our best hope,
we may say, lies in the success of the present
insurrectionary movement in Cuba. A check
to the marvellous industry of that Colony,
which yearly produces 800 900 hbds. of sugar
" would give, " says the Trinidad Chy0nisle
g" a prodigious impetus to sugar growing in the
"English colonies, uneXampled since the
collapse of colonial industry in ST. Domin-
60 in 1898" There Is no doubt about it;
and it is difficult not to grudge the slave hold
