pared, planted. and put out to EARN"
before his reaping begins, so that one
operation might not interfere with another;

ton of the soil goes, St. kits stands as
well as any country in the world.
/ am not able to speak 10 the same terms
of praise of the manutacture..of sugar 10 St.
Kits as I have spoken of the cultivation of
it, for, with the exception of the extensive
introduction of steam engines and mills for
crushing the canes, and the entire discard
ing OF the old-lashioned wiudmills, very
little has been accomplished in the manu-
~facture of the sugar, and the quality is
scarcely any better than it was fifty years
ago. This is probably owing TO the doubt
which exists as to whether the capital
required for establishing vacuQm.pans and
centrifugal machinery, and the employ.
ment of the requisite skilled labour upon
SMALL or medium-size estates, would be
repaid by the higher price the sugar
would fetch, And men with limited
means do not like to run the risk of the
experiment, aud E'rather bear the ills they
have than fly to others that they know

AGRICULTURAL REPORT.
(FrOm the Antigua Observer.)
CHRISTMAS DAY, 1880.

Several years have elapsed since our
last Report, but we can't refrain from
a few farewell observations on the
state of the Island. We always look
ed on Antigua with a hopeful and
cheerful eye, and everything we see
at present confirms the favorable i'm
preston we received before. The Is
land promises well, generally, tho
the rains have been very intermittent
since July August, September and
October, having been comparatively
dry and, tho November was highly
seasonable, December has come in,
and threatens to go out, without the
fall we should welcome. Still, we
may augur favorably Of the coming
crop, as our tenacious soil, and the
excellent tillage, make us almost in
dependent of those continuous rains,
without which, our sister Island, st.
kits, would be, especially in it's Val
lev, a desert. Let us hope that we
still shall have rain enough to give
us an ample harvest. The canes on
which the least dependence is to be
placed, seem to be the rattoons; and
throughout st. Kits they were pro-
nounced a failure, likewise.
The Labour Market, as might have
been expected, was a good deal disor-
ganized by the last two wet years;
but measures have been taken to re-
store it to a proper state by the intro
duction of a few Immigrants from
Barbados; and we hear of no COM
plants at present. The Barbadians
have proved themselves excellent
workers: and as, from being near by,
they a come and go without much
trouble and expense, the Chinese that
have been ordered, and are said to be
under way, will we fear, on account
of the heavy outlay attending them,
and their somewhat curious morality,
be less cordially welcomed than the
others. The batch, that was ship
wrecked here some years ago, did
but little good to us and, tho it was

S 7. KIT IT'S
(From the st. Christopher Gazette.)

The following interesting account OF
this island, which in size aud population
alb, ut equals Santa !Cruz, is taken from a
lecture delivered before. the Royal Colo
NAL Institute 10 London by the Hon,
Thomas Berkeley of ST. kits, and repub-
lished n the q Gazette"
The island of st. Cbristopher-or, as it
is usually called, St. Kitts-wss discover.
ed by Christopher Columbus iu 1893.
1t was first settled in 1923 by an English
gentleman named Warner. who afterwards.
as Sir Thomas Warner, was the first
Governor. This emineut gentleman, to
whose enterprise the colonisation of the
Leeward Islands is due, died at st. kits
in 1649, and was buried 10 the churchyard
of ST. Thomas, Middle Island, where there
is still a monument and tomb to his me.
mory, which am happy to say, through
the exertions OF some gentlemen of the
Island, Was restored a few years ago. The
early history OF St. Kits is one of varied
vicissitudes, owing to the trouble caused
by the native CarribS, and the frequent
invasions Of the French, who appear to
have been very anxious to possess the
island, and it Changed hands several times;
and some bloody fights occurred until the
general peace OF 1883, when it was fualIy
coded to Great Britain.
Ia the times of the early settlers the
chief products OF this island we're tobacco,
indigo, aud ginger; bat these after a time
gave place to the sugar cane, which was
found to be suitable to the soil, and more
profitable. This product has ever since
had no rival as q staple in St. Kits, and
has held the positioa of it's sole Industry
to the present time. Brysn Edwards, who
wrote his history of the West Indies near
ly a century ago, says that the average
production OF sugar for a series of years
was 10000 hogsheads of 16 WITS. each.
which is aboutthe same average weight now
OF q hogshead of sugar when sold 10 this
country; but the average number of
hogsheadS is not now more than 10000.
La speaking OF the products of this island.
] only refer to those which form the items
OF trade; but sweet potatoes, vans. bana-
mas, plantaius, eddoes, cassava, and other
vegetables. are grown in abundance as
articles OF 1000 !; and the breadfruit tree
and other fruits are also plentiful.
The soil is peculiarly suited to the
growth OF the sugar cane |; it is light and
porous, and easily worked by the hoe ; it is
a black ferfuginous pumice. finely iincorpo-
rated with . pure loan. The under stra.
tum varies . good deal 10 some places it
