CROIX. At this time, when the great question of the capability of free blacks to maintain themselves and successfully conduct business is more widely mooted than ever, it may not be uninteresting to mention that the cargo of sugar and molasses received at this port in the L.P.

Chenery & Co. were the consignees of this cargo, and were generally felicitated upon the handsome manner in which their correspondents sent their produce to market.— <xsl-text></xsl-text>Boston Transcript, June <xsl-text></xsl-text>3 <xsl-text></xsl-text>d.
