JAMAICA NEWS
Jamaica Cleaner, March 1871.

The chef event Of the fortnight has been
the assembling of the new Legislative Conn
cll. The session W s opened with the Gus
tomary imposing cerrm nial, and the Gov
ernor, Sir Henry blake. returned to his for
mer position as President. HIS address was

considered satisfactory. The commercial AMI

there would be "A surplus of 100000 bit
owing to recent heavy remission of duties the
estimated income next year would not meet
the expenditure and it would be necessary to
raise the difference by fresh taxation. A
score of bills were mentioned but there was
none of any Importance.
Immediately after the former preliminaries
the Colonial Secretary introduced two bills
for The purpose of providing against the an
tlclpated usicit. One altered the method of
levying the duty on UNI substlturing the
test Of strength for the test Of qu nifty the
other raised the customs duties IN the various
elias 5es Of spirits and toOaccos. Both bills
were pissed through all their stages and
received the assent of the Governor. Their
operation after the LIST April is, however,
subject to the decision of the Council 1t is
expected that $4,000 pei annum will be
raised by this means if the laws remain in
force.
The question Of granting a subsidy to Mr..
L, NJ. Earle, representing a Syndicate estab-
lished for he purpose of exploiting the fish
cries of jamaica, was considered. The SEQ
rotary of State for the Colonies had approved
the scheme. The resolution, moved by the
Colonial Secretary was lost.
An event of a peculiarly sad and mysteri-
GUS character occurred on he 9th INST. in the
parish Of Portland. A Mr.. SHELTON, q young
EngIlshman, and his fanc6e, Miss Moss of
st. Anus, a girl Of I8, were staying at
Harmony the residence of Mrs. Jenoure, the
sisOer. of the LITTER. On Frid " afternoon
both went Down to The shore to battle in the
bay which had been set aside for the purpose.

means perfectly cured.
From this imperfect physical condition it
follows that the molassps is separated slowly
and imperfectly, in this colony by simple
drainage-and this molosses is rarely, if ever,
reboiled, being frequently, from fermentation,
unfit for such a purpose.
The resulting cured muscoVado sugar when
shipped loses weight very considerably on
the voyage"; the losses being, so far as / can
ascertain about 8 per cent q loss it is to be
noted which is double that of the inversion

York, from which | find the following average
differences in price between $50 Centrifugals
and $50 MuscOvado.

the petitioners treatment of his wife which
were not pleasant reading. The Judges af

and giving especial attention to the mental
condition of the wife at the time of the II

not be allowed to draw the money. The
latest news about the wife is that she had

Italy was entirely due to Newspaper reports;
also that Italy does not desire and cannot in
fact afford war. The paper also asserts that
these pacific sentiments are shared by the
Sovereigns of Germany, Austria. and Russia;
and further that Italy has desired a renewal
of amicable and commercial relations with
France. The 'Temps" semi-oficially says
that the eve of the Venice Conference is a
singular time for such overtures, and considers
it a strange idea that France will respond
while present political relations are unim-
proved.

A case Of an unusual kind has just been

the other way. A widow named Maria De

property enough to maintain her, was sent
from here to Madeira, where it seems she was
allowed to 60 about without restraint. A
man named Cunha aged 23. who used to be in

West Chester News: Radishes possess
valuable medicinal properties. They are
demulcsnt, stimulating and diurstic, and
should be eaten freely when fresh and crisp.
They are usually eaten with salt only, but
if sliced thin are very nice with a French
dressing. In this country the radishes
themselves are rarely cooked. though the
tops of young radishes are often boiled.
The radish is a native of Asia, where it has
been cultivated from the most ancient
times. Nearly an inch of the green top
should be left on the radishes when they
are prepared for the table, and this little
potion of the top should be eaten, as the
p~reculiar properties they possess help to
digest the radlsh itself. =
