The West Indian of the t0th says the hot suns of July, re- lieved by afew showers, have told upon the young canes. Sad accounts have been received from every part ofthe Island.

There was scarcely any native produce to be had for love or money; no grain, peas, or guinea corn. All kind: of American produce had risen in price, particularly corn meal and rice, the former selling at $63. per barrel, and the latter (Carolina,) at 10 cents the pint. ‘Iour to be had at 37, but the labourers prefer meal, because it is more easly prepared.
