Yarmouth Of Berlin, n. j., disappeared

trace Of him, although the wagon and
team with which he started out have
been found. The wagon was smashed
and the horses were dead. When last

peared TO be intoxicated and the theory

dition, robbed and killed him aud hid
his body. He Is said TO have had con
siderable money In his possession.

who thought 10000 hogsheads of sugar q
heavy crop, could revisit their old habitations
they would open their eyes with honest,
wonder at the progress that has been made
during the last half century. What a luna
tic the man that would have talked l. of S0,000
or 10000 hogsheads of sugar from Barbados
soil would have been proclaimed How we'll
we remember the sneers that some of the
ancient managers directed at the foreign
manures that came first into use some thirty
years ago, and the predictions OF evil that
would result from their use to man and
beast. OF course, it is the old story-history
repeating itself. The same predictions that
were made against the railway when it was
first used in England, and the steamboat
when 1t crossed the Atlantic. But improve
ments go on, and the world benefits.
There is no complaint for labour just now,
and we shall rejoice if the complaint does
not arise later. but calls for labourers come
to us from various places, Demerara has
here an Agent at work for recruiting labour-
ers, and she offers great advantages to our
hands. The condition of the West Indian
laborer in Demerara has been placed upon q
better footing, and no doubt some will be
drawn from our villages for the estates of
British Guiana. We do not believe any la
borers located on estates, with their garden
spots, will be tempted to emigrate, and we
could wish, with the. writer in the AdriCultu-
raj Gazette, that there were more in that com
Portable and settled position. At no distant
day our larger properties will have their
located tenantry, as in the Olden time, and
we shall not then hear sdch lamentations for
labor as we have heard duling crop time in
recent years.

THE BOTANICAL STATION IN
DOMINICA.

There arrived Ivy the II. NJ. Steamer on
Tuesday from England u Mr.. Green, who,
we understand, Is to he the Curator Of the
Botanic ia. den which is fm posse. THIS
gentleman ia the second person that has
been imported Ivy His Exccllrncy the Gov
crnor tor this spec &c purpose. The fast
one, Mr., Murray, after idling Il few months
here at he expense at the payers, had
~ be transferred 10 Grenada, where there
is a station in working order.
Now, Sillce u Resolution passed the
House If Assembly Il few months ago,
autbOrislng Tire Governor to SlrtId 81 1850
upon the purchase of 40 acres of land part
of the Bath estate for the purpose Of pstah-
fishing, among other things, this Botanic

settled with Mr.. Davies for The land in
question when His Excrllency Was here
last, we take it for granted that tile Gov
errrOr is sure Of the land Wherein TO rstAh-

the BOtanist. We hope that all the pre-.
limimarirs have been arranged by onr I'M
pulSive Chief, aud that there will he aS
little delay az possible i'll setting the
Curator to work. Oar experience Of Sir
William T. HAMS Smith In the past has
caused us to arrive at the cOncil-
RiOn, that ideas no sooner enter his fer
tile brain, than be tries tn put them into
execution. Before he has had tiInU 10
mould and fashion his schemes Into ship.
shape order, they Hre launched forth. so
that at the outset they become a chaotic
mass of confusion. Hence it ia that
though it IS admitted on all hands that we
need a Botanic Station here, and that We
must have an experienced and clever Bot
aniSt to take charge of the same, many are
afraid that this venture will prove "a costly
failure.
We trust, however, that unlike his other
ventures, this scheme will turn ont to be q
brilliant success; that Dominica's Botanic
Station will In the near future be one OF
the wonders of the Lesser Antilles and that
crowds of admiring tourists will be attract
cd tn our shores to behold the beauties of
Onr fertile garden, and to sing the praises
of the great man who m&de rs pay dear,

The jam aica Blue Book

We have received the Departmental Re
potts of the Colony for the year lSS6-S9. In
summing up his report on these, His Excel
lency the Governor remarks -
The Fruit Trade and the abandonment of
Sugar
The year 1867.SS marks the end OF a period
of depression. It opened with n deficit in
Public Revenue of 912.62S and cIosed with q
surplus of G3O,O54. This surplus had IN
creased by the end of the wear under review
to $50, 538. The growth Of prosperity thus
Indicated has been maintained. and promises
10 continue. The preceding precis of the
reports of the various Departments, which
treat in detail Of the different subjects under
which the business of the Island is classed
show how steady an improvement is main
tanned IN every Department. The number of
Schools has increased from I'll in 1888 to
826, and Industrial Schools are about to be
erected, at Hope Botanical Gardens for boys,
and at Sherwood Female TRIMMING College
for girls. The establishment of these schools
will obtiatr the necessity Of sending more
waits AMI strays to be brought up IN the B1vs
or Girls Reformatories where they are expos
ed to the communicating effects of association
with vicious and criminal c. ldren. This
Government Savings Bank shows n increase
Of 185 IN the number Of Depositors, and Of
9l4,a63 in the total amount of deposits.
The fruit trade, especially that III bananas,
is daily expanding and to meet tre wants OF
the local growers the telegraph system Is
being rapidly extended. The cultivation Of
sugar shows O. decrease as steady as that Of
bananas shOwsa al Increase, and there seems
every probability that the cultivation may
be further restricted. The cause of the
$3.50 II H.. -Loto -. nkA.,L,k,l -
the low price of sugar, and in some cases to
the difficulty of obtaining labour. No doubt
heavily incumbered sugar estates belonging
to absentee owners do not ply under tn"
present system Of cultivation of the canes
and manufacture of sugar aud rum. Bat
with the separation of the business OF manu-.
facture from that of cultivation, and the
concentration of the planters attention on
the Improvement in the cultivate and the
quality of the cane, sugar grown, would be
q safe and profitable Investment. It is much
to be regretted that the cultivation OF sugar
estates should decrease, for the sugar ctA9,
unlike the banana, cannot be destroyed o. a
hurricane, and this offers a steady field for
labour in the event of such a calamity. The
difficulty of obtaining labour is no doubt Sc
rious. That there is difficulty is not to be
attributed to the lazinrss of the population,
but rather to their determination to invest in
land, and to work upon it for their OWN pro-
fit. The consequence of this determination
is a gradual migration from the plains to
the hills, where land can more readily be
secured, and where a very thriviu, peasant
proprietary has sprung into existence, AMI
these owners nave become the principal pro-
ducers of fruit.
