He declared the key bad been given to him by a man in the street ; but ipquiries were made. and it was found it, deen manu- fagtured bya Dutebman named Bauer, m ‘arbington street necr Dupont. Bauer was arrested, and stated that he had been applied to by English Joe to make the key, and received a model by which to mould it, He did not keow for what purpose it was intended. ner was he ac- qnainted with Joe. who had stated to him that he lived across the bay. He had made another key for the same pence some six weeks ago, but was afterwards told it had | m lost, and hence hir making a second one—that pro- duced by the keeper—after the same pattern. His story appear probable, and it is believed he is innocent of any complicity in the affair, It seems the model of the key was made six weeks ag@, by Yankee Jim, one of the nine who effected their escape some days smce, and who is raid to be & most ingenious artificer. He is supposed to have obtained an impression of the wards of the lock by means ef a bar of soap. from which be constructed out of wood the model after whieh Bauer copied.

Hall, under the infliction, was heard to mutter “he wonld have blood for it.” Adams declared they were punishing an inno- cent man. and got ten more for the ie. Jenkins alone suceumbed, and howled piteously for merey. Mrs Hall and Englith Joe will be at once indicted by the Grand Jury, and sentenced to the same cells they wore so near opening. ‘The prisoners, it eeems, have become desperate, in anticipation of being removed by the lessee to new quarters on one ofthe islands.

Mr. Smith then made rome remarks and moved away, but had only pro- ceeded @ short distance. when he was alarmed by two shots from a pistol being fired after him.

Of Antigua, it is said, the drought continues in all its severity, and great distress has begun to be felt for want of water for demestic purposes. The crops, both for the present and the ensuing year. are sufiering gteutly from the drought, and the cattle on many estates are dying for want of water. In Saint Kitt’s the want of water for domestic purposes bad begun to be felt in the town of Basseterre and at Sondy Point. Every cistern in the town, with the ex- ception of one in the juil, was dry. in Saint Lucia the drought continued very severe. Vegetation, the Palladium says, is dried up ail around. ‘We have never seen the country -so parched up before, ‘The sugar crop, which is being manufactured, has not suf- fered much from this protracted drought, though the want of water is felt in several distriets to retard the oper- ations of the mills; but we fear the consequences will be much to the prejudice of the next crop. In Anguilla the drought which had prevailed for seve- ral months had reduced the poorer clasres of the inhabi- tants to a state of absolute destitution and misery. The puople were absolutely dying from want. A boat load or more of flour and corn meal had been forwarded from St, Christopher's, for their relief. From Carriacoa we learn that the weather has been excessively dry,which was the more injurious, as previous to the commencement of the present month, (April) was ied by astrong northerly wind. During the ecks the heat bas been very great, and though there have been occasional indications of raiu, none has yet fallen. and water. for every purpose, has be- come very searce indeed, Some of the ponds are entirely dry and cleaned out, The crops have, therefore, been much retarded. and, as the eancs are burning much faster than they cun be got off 2 good many will be lost in eer deter Miten MUP Text your hue also suifered very meh ‘emigration of the labo i tof higher w been unusually great, pa of the mon and boys, so that the estates have usly inconvenienced, as the crop is somewhat beyond the ‘average ot the last few years Two smart shocks of earthquake were felt here a few minutes after six o'clock, on the morning of the 13th ule, In Trinidad the weather coutinned fine, and the crop was ng with great rapidity, he low price of eugar however. soy $2 25 to $200 per 100 Ibs. had canned th pprehensions for,the future, The importations this year into Trinidad, ate said to have been ge and itappears a mystery how they are to(bepuid for out of the proceeds ofa crop Fold at so low a pr The dry goods merchants of Port of Spain bre it is stated, suffering much from the slackness of their sales, ry large MARKETS.
