The Globe says "Bishop hutchinson
has officially announced to the
Church Council that he has written
to the Archbishop of Canterbury re-
signing the Diocese of Barbados from
the end Of April or May. He will
continue, during the life time of
Bishop Jackson, to act as Bishop
Coadjutor of the Diocese of Antigua.
Bishop hutchinson will be a loss to
this Diocese as we'll as to that of the
Windward Islands"
"Mr. Grosvenor has had an inter
view with the commercial body at a
meeting held on the 18th inst. at the
Commercial Uall, at which the un-
reasonable claims of the Telegraph
Company were laid before that body.
W. see no reason to alter our opinion
already expressed. The Company
wished to be released from their obi
cation while obtaining an increase of
fifty per cent on their subsidy-terms
which will hardly find favor with the
public. Before making any rejoinder
it was decided that the Members of
the Chamber of Commerce. along
with any other gentlemen whom they
chose to select, should confer with
the Council of the Agricultural Socie-
ty on the subject and prepare a joint
statement of their views to be laid
before the Conference which is ex-
pected to meet here to determine what
steps are to be taken in the matter"
We take the following remarks on
Barbados from the 4mtigm Register.
eff what we hear be true, it is the
intention of the Imperial Government
to apply the wedge of "coercion" to
Barbados, and in time compel "Lit-
tie England" to come under the fin
ger and thumb of the Colonial Of
fee. The Governor of the Wind
ward Islands, we are informed, took
upon himself the responsibility of
appointing, according to ancient prac-
tice, three magistrates, and as soon as
the report reached the Colonial Minis
ter the appointments SO made were
cancelled and others appointed from
the numerous applicants for place at
Home, "New Blood" must now, it
seems occupy official seats as they
are vacated by the native, occu-
pants. The application OF the Crown
Colony system is looming not too
distant as regards Barbados. But
Barbadians are not so subdued in
temperament, as the Leeward Island
ers;I they a among themselves
unite, though composed of many de-
grees of comparison, and m~anfully
defend their privileges to the utter
most. This act of the Colonial Office
if as we said, true, is nothing short Of

A letter from the Chairman Of the

Admiral Sir Leopold NJ .CIintock
had been visiting the island, and the
occasion was attended with various
festivities ashore and afoat, which
are thus described in the Observer
of the 18th ult:
"The Admiral landed on Friday
morning at II o'clock under a salute
from Fort James, and was received
on the public wharf by a guard of
honor of the Police Force, and pro-
ceeded to Government house escort
ed by a detachment of the Antigua
Yeomanry Cavalry. After paying a
short visit at Government HoHse Sir
Leopold returned to his ship, but
landed privately at a later hour and
passed the afternoon with the Cover
nor, who had a Croquet and Lawn
Tennis party.
Several of the officers visited the
Lawn Tennis Club, where a match
was played resulting in a victory for
the ship.
On Saturday a large party was
entertained by Sir Leopold Mcclin-
took on board the Flag ship at IN
afternoon dance, which we hear was
very much enjoyed; the ship being
replete with all the latest warlike in
ventions afforded a treat to the curl
Gus, even greater than the dancing or
the sweet strains of the very fine band
of the Northampton"
To-day a cricket match is being
played between the A. c. Club and
the fleet, and though not concluded
at the hour of writing, is, we hear,
practically decided in favor of the
Navy.
A large party of ladies and gen.

Admiral, the ships band has just (4p.

We are informed that the North

The same paper informs us that
the harbour of st. Johns is to be
surveyed with a view to ascertaining
whether it is practicable to remove
a portion of the bar which shuts it
in, and on the deepest part of which
there is only about II feet of water.

They are willing to work at

DEM.

1t is reassuring to the country that the
intimacy between General Grant and
President Arthur continues close. Out
of their joint counsels something superla-
lively good must be looked for. They
know all about civil service reform, for
example, and their acquaintance with
people that will stand firm to the
racket with the public crib at their backs
is extensive and valuable. 1t is to be
hoped that the General will never desert
his friend, but that he will stick to him
on the present sea of State difficulties, as
did Mrs. Micawber cling to her Wilkins
when w of trouble rolled across the
domestic hearth. If the ex-President
should sacrifice to the country any ever
so great multiple of the days that he now
yields up to intercourse to the yet hardly
initiated incumbent of the Chief Magis.

of his experience and the wealth of his

ANOTHER Z

In yesterdays SENTINEL there was Of
fered a concise statement OF u fnan-
cial condition as a State. The conclu-
sion was reached, from a consideration OF
figures taken from the records, that
when the next Legislature meets there
will be no money in the Treasury n
that the State will have borrowed up to
within a small margin of our Constitu-
tional limit OF indebtedness. The Reno
Journal, with more hopefulness proba-
bly,, but with less study of figures, dis
cusses the situation and extracts there
from a very gratifying assurance OF the
States monetary soundness, in which 1t
would only be too pleasant for us to take
part, did the facts warrant it. The
Journal says:
Taxpayers need not be alarmed about
the condition Of State finances. The re-
turns from the counties that have so far
published the amoun of taxes collectabie
render it certain that at the close OF the
fiscal year the State debt proper will not
amount to anything. The money advanced
under the Loan Act to keep the State on q
cash basis, will be returned to the School
Fnnd. and the $3.50, 900 Territorial bond
debt and the $50, 900 Asylum money, will
be all there will be outstanding. In
the former matter the State can we'll
afforsi to continue to pay the five per e
interest to its School Fund, and but few
will object to the three pee cent on the
Asylum building count. The Loan Act
gives the State the use OF the S220,OO0 re-
naming on the Constitutional limit, and
this year and next it will be used to bridge
over the period when the States revenues
are light. Each December settlement will
bring in sufficient to replace the money
taken out under that Act, and there will
be fully $500 600 to be used in the same
manner, should the next Legislature gee
fit TO have it done.
The December taxes will soon be in
and they will maintain the State Gov
eminent until December, 1882, when it
will be necessary to borrow, say, $780,
900 to finish the year. The taxes of
1850 were exhausted by August of this
year, since which time the State expenses
have been met by issuance of State
bonds. The Treasury will not be ex-
hausted so easy in 1881, but in 1882
there will surely.be a recurrence of the
same need to borrow. Thus we are in
evitably reaching the end of the rope,
and in December, 1888, before the taxes
come into the Treasury, we will have nc
money and no power to issue any more
bonds. 1t is in view of this outcome,
the emergency being foreseen, that the
question is suggested in order that il
may be agitated and a remedy devised.

Referring to the contract Of Colonel
Thomas Moore with the Nevada 4 Oregon
Railroad Company, the Reno Journal says:
The railroad case has developed the fact
that the contract Moore has Is q good thing
for himself. For building the Beckworth
division Of 81 miles he has been paid in
advance, and received $500. 900 in bonds,
$780, 900 in money, and $500 shares OF
stock. The total cost OF building the 81
miles will not amountt TO $500, 900. so il the
bonds brought par. as they ought to, the
contractor will clear the 500. 900 in money,
and the $500 shares OF stock. OF the par
value OF 500 per share. We do not won
der that somebody Is interested in having
. Board Of Directors that will reflect the
wishes OF any one who wants the contract
for the next 81 miles. Meantime the out
sidsrs are foolish to subscribe for the stock
Of tho Nevada & Oregon Railroad.

FREMONT Still. GOVERNOR,

The Arizonian of a late date says in
regard to the reported withdrawal Of
General Fremont from the Governorship
of Arizona: There is no necessity at
present to talk about a successor to Gov
ernor Fremont. Sufficient unto the day
is the evil thereof. As now understood,
meagre telegraphic reports to the con-
trary, the old Pathfinder has neither aban-
doned nor lost the Gubernatorial trail,
but is still pursuing it with the conf
dence of a man with influential friends at
court, and without fear of displacement
by enemies or aspirants."
