The sums of money so received and applied, in conjunction with the existing high rate of wages to mechanics and labourers, have tended much to abate the demands which would, otherwise, have been made upon the government for the relief of the poor of this district, and which, not withstanding, I regret to my, have been consi derably increased as compared with former year." On the Bth of December the House of Assembly went up to Government-house to present their address in answer, which was scarcely more than an echo of the speech. Samara az nu rum —no easantheienexe alleated by his ezoffleney Sir John Harvey, the late governor of this colony, for the purpose of siding the executive in the dis tribution of the funds committed to its hands by the parent government, for the relief of the sufferers by the late fire, have terminated their labours, having distributed, or rather recommended the distribution of, the sum of nearly 31,5001. Besides this, there is a fund remaining at the disposal of the General Relief Committee, who we have no doubt will, as soon as practicable, proceed to apportion the same with a just and equitable regard to the necessities of the several claimants. With respect to the commissioners themselves, it is only due to them to state that they have received the acknowledgments of the executive as to the zeal, integrity, and faithfulness with which they have dis charged the duties confided to them—a sentiment in which, we believe, the community at large is disposed to concur; and we hope mid believe that the General Relief Committee will, in like manner, satisfactorily acquit themselve s in the discharge of those onerous offices to the right and judicious fulfilment of which they cannot but be anxiously alive.— Ledger. t r 1........ „ , oil-ort.,:ci l' LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, JAN. 2,1847. re mt importunate for charms to bind the , putting the country under martial law, or perha a, but have no notion of medical re ; war.

But such was their awe ra.... of the Sultan, that they did not take the hat contented themselves with stripping their aatort.

The Turks have the greatest antipathy to them, and always speak of them in gross terms of abuse. The Kunis repay this with an equal dislike, which, however, is deep, not loud. Their differed,e of religion aggravates their mutual hatred , for the Kurds ere Shafehites, while the Turks are of the less severe sect of Banned. Many of the Kurdish chiefs in the Cossova were very wealthy, and possessed of large herds of cattle. Their wives and daughters were unveiled, sad wore massive gold ornaments about the neck and arms. _ . —Ay under martial law, or perhaps for civil irregular troops will be hounded on to pro- Tell : cad the unhappy villages which hays outlaws, will be devoted to the destruction her sex nor age. The horrible scenes which of Adjora will be repeated, and districts peopled will be then left quite desolate. ~ tribes which haunt the Jebil Nionrond, an continuation of the Taurus towards the Lake of dwell about the springs of the Tigris, have for a 'en in the habit of making yearly inroads into Diarbekir, from which they sweep the bar le of the peaceable inhabitants. To cheek Emir Pasha, with a d' • 'on of the arsay . some irregular troops, amounting in all be , and 3,000 men, set out from Diarbekir in the beginning of September. Ile defeated the Kurds in as engagement' at Karsak and Bekirkhan, about 100 miles to the N.E., and has driven off from their country 12,000 sheep and 15,000 head of cattle. These Kurds, I hear, have not paid their tribute for twenty years; and now it is to 01111. temp:ation to seise as much of their substance as can be sot at for arrears. Sixty prisoners are to be sent to Constenti-• nople to become soldiers. Emir Pasha is returning from his successful expedition to winter quarters, at Diarbelar. The aildiers under his command will form part of the force which is to act under Ismael Pasha against the Kurds in the spring. The Sultan's proclamation of Feb. 18th, a sort of repetition of the Matti Sheriff of Galbani, is posted up over the doors of the Christian churches in Armenian and Greek, but the mud-pelted and torn state of these documents sufficiently attests the dislike with which they are regarded by theddahometan population as well as the moll respect which is borne to the Paclishah's authority in We city. Notwithstanding the express enforcement el War equality among all denominations of subjects so fur ersetway renewed, no earth dent mount a horse within the mildelditerbehin A harainime‘aeleolliah the Pasha hoe elven to our Chaldean host, is entirely useless to him ; and whenever the good Hodja is disposed to ride, he is fain to mount an as. A rayah, named Temek, who was re solved upon asserting the now privileges of the Chris tians had nearly paid with his life this temerity. His son rode through the streets upon a horse, but narrowly escaped being stoned to death; and the merchant's house was pulled down by the enraged Mussubnan. The min represented his case at Constantinople, and received compensation. But neither he nor his son have ventured to mount a horse since. The height at the doors of the outer precincts of the Christian churches, which are here very numerous, is limited by Mussulmau arrozance to throe feet; so that you have to crawl through the wall with your back painfully bent. None of the Christian communities have dared to efface this ignominious mark of their political ser vitude. • • LIMERICK, DEC. 30. —Our Wheat market 4 oglay, is of late, Las been most miserably supplied, and price must Ise quoted at nominally the same as last mark 't day.

THE LEAD Olin Or THE CAPE COLON - T.—Mr. Thal wither, the Hamburg consul at the Cape, transmitted, last year, some specimens of the lead ore found at Stolen river. A report of an analysis of this ore, by Dr. Sthamer, of the University of Hostoch, is encouraging. The locality of the ore is, we understand, easily accessible: in this ease, the lead might be available for vessel, proceeding I ballast, or with half-freights to Chins, where, thanks to of "lordships," the Yankees have driven no out of the market by their cheap supplies of this metal.

The amount of deaths cannot be exactly ascertained, but they are guessed at about sixty a day. In the whole Pashalik of Bagdad, 30,000 people have died; and in the city, 10,000. The pest is now raging at Baron, and 600 are said to have died of it in one day at ILEA. Bederhau-beg has made a fresh massacre of the Nestorian'. He set out from Djesireh upon this bloody fanatical expedi tion the 2nd day after Bairma, in spite of a warning he re-' ceived from Tayar Pasha, governor of Mosul, not to go. Tips Puha has made an expedition against the Yezidi's of Sinjar, without much result. He summoned them to pay tribute. All gave in but one village, which he accordingly destroyed. He is now at Nisibin, with about 2,000 troops. The number of the Nestorian" slaughtered by Bederhan beg M not known. It has been stated at 300: but this is probably far below the truth. Bederhan-beg, I suppose Tnu know, is the Kurdish chie ft ain who governs Jesireh. he Porte has lately boasted of his support in taking Mahranud Khan, another Kurdish chief. But the fact is, that Mahmoud Mum has never been taken, and the rumour of his capture originated in an interview between the two Kurdish chiefs at .4esireh, to consult how they might but defy the Turks. The diatrict of the Nestorian" attacked is called Tekhoma. Bederhan-beg sent to the Nestoriaa chief of Tekhoma, to give him notice that he welitated an attack upon his people. The Tekhomalees melt to implore aid and intercession from Tayar Pasta. The ivemor of Mosul sent a letter to Bederhan-beg, com manding him peremptorily, in the name of the Turkish government, to desiat from his impious and inhuman wider. taking. Bederhan-beg sent a inp ol t iphalmoepl • y, tell: - • , . .n vs.." ax mi that he *anted no interference with h is dominions • that he should do what be pleased witho u t asking h ave of the Pasha ; that it was a merito- Hone act to slay Ghiaours ; and that be had ro doubt that the Porte would approve of his deeds. In his letter to the Tckhomalees, he said that he would spare none, and that he would take no slaves for the English am bassador to make a noise about. and require him to restore-- as he did upon occasion of the last massacre, which occurred in 1843. There is no doubt but this will be taken up strongly by the Esiglish government; and Mr. Wellesley has acted with becoming spirit in demanding explanation' of the Porte. In the meantime he has addressed a letter to the consul at Mosul, Mr. Ramam, requesting him to make inquiry into the business. Before witting upon the Nestorian', Bederhan-beg directed hie kerns against the two Kurdish chieftains of Pi nianspi and Tchal, who had sent to Toyer Pasha word of the intended expedition, with offers to ambit the Nestorian..

Oar readers will find, in another page, news from India, which reached town this morning, by way of Trieste, and was published exclusively in the columns el the Daily News. For the intelligence which has been received, the public are Indebted to the indefatigable exertions of Lieut. Waghorn, who has upon this, as well as on some former occasions, succeeded in beating the expresses ria Marseilles. We congratulate Lieut. Waghorn on a triumph stained under very disadvantageous circumstances. The steamer which had been placed by government at his disposal, for carrying on the intercourse be tween Alexandria and Trieste, is notoriously lard eient for the service in which she is employed ; and, to add to the many difficulties with which his courier had in the present instance to contend, it may be mentioned that it was found impossible to obtain express trains through Germany, so that only the ordinary modes of conveyance were used. The weather upon the Continent was unusually severe; but, notwithstanding this and the many ob stacles which had to be encountered, Lieut. Waghorn Me =weeded in establishing fully the practicability et the Trieste line, even in the very depth of winter. MR.

ITALY.—The Contemporaneo, a new weekly t, made its appearance at Rome on the 12th December. i a tg i in riview the various opinions of the public mind, the Contamporoneo declares itself suite apart "from those swim of ancient habits, declared enemies of all innovation, who diloover disorder and anarchy in the most innocent works ot pogrom, even in them suggested by humanity and Christie amity.

DIARBEKIR, Ocr. 25, 1546. I left Same nu on October 7, the day after the date of my last dispatch, and arrived here on the 23rd, spending a day at Amasia and another at Tokat, by the way. For the first day and abalf, from Samsoun to within a few hours of Mouth, the country presents a green succession of wooded bills, turfy downs, and rich meadows. The valleys are well watered, and abound with crops of intensely-green tobacco, hemp end millet. Villages are strewed here and thereupon the hill slopes, and the numeroas paths winding over the , country indicate an extensive population. This green belt , extends through the whole of the north of Asia Minor ; and the province of Djanik, in which Samsoun is situated, is the most productive part of it. Within a few hours of Amasia the character of the Country totally changes. You issue from a flrry mountain-peas, as it were, into a new sone. The features of the scene are enlarged ; but the pleasant green, the woods, and the rich cultivation, are gone ; and, in their place, the eye stretches over vast sallow desert tracts, crossed from east to wart by lofty mountain ranges. The rocky avenues of Amasia are tilled with fruit gardens and mul berry plantations, to feed the worms that furnish this place with rte principal article of trade. Innumerable water wheel., some of them forty feet in diameter, groaning and shrieking night and day in a strange con cert, which catches afar the ear of the traveller, and sounds hie the roaring and yelling of ',lid beasts, irri gee continually these orchards. The fruit of Amasia is famous. and the apples that shine in ambassadorial desserts on the tables of Pere, frequently boast the same birthplace with Strube and Mithridates. The whole road from Sam soma exhibits Wain symptoms of the commercial activity whisk has bum soiled Jana existence by the establishment of lailliberi slew the northeast. I passe (frequently caravans rig into lie interior with British manufactures, and seder of emeeie bringing down tobacco, gallnuts, and air berries te the coast. Villages far from the sea are to nwielelewd and appreciate commerce. They me to die nearest ports ; and the ports en treat the sentelesele te visit them, promising plentiful 'im plies. How Welk eseta Man the government might turn this into a lioundakg and populous region!

The government of Amnia leo Maly boom separated from that of Sivas, and is eseetwllled to a Cabassae, Rabid Bey, late riatib or secre tory tit Min Peels. The city is one of the moat flourishing et Ma empire. It return+ to the Porte a revenue of 25,000 penes (upwards of 100,0001.).

The fol lowing is soother sample of,the way in which Turkish em ployes do their duty. Three engineers were sent not long ago to survey Ow ground between Amasia and Samsoun for • new reed. I took two days to ride over it; but the Turk ish mighteues mirurgod it in three. f ant net with the Ma& tents of the Kurds, some thirty miles math of Amnia, near Tarkhal, in the broad valley of Canova, which stretches between Zilla and Tokat. The encampment consisted of about 30 tents, whose wretched tenants, chiefly did moo and old women, lay on the ground yellow and haggard with the tertian ague, which prevails along the low grounds of this district. Throughout the range of this valley, which is about four or flee males broad, I saw at leant thirty different groups of tents. There were no able man in any at Mass which I visited; and the greater port of the poor people MR, oofforod more es lam from Tokat, like Amnia, is famed for its fruit, and orchards extend for many miles in its vicinity. It is here that the paw berry is produced in greatest perfection. The copper ens dog from the mines of Argana-Maden, owing to the ' oinellikr of wood there, is refined at Tokat. The ore, whe% deg sal, etstains 20 per cent. copper, which is the largest' , Wedill known in any copper mine. Before leaning Kahn it nee through two melting,.

The tanzionat, not pt law in the pashalik of Tretisond, has been introduced into Sinn Be chief advantage consist., not in taking lets from the raor I n doing more for them, but in reducing to a Ten .,:ic..the taxation before unsettled. The tanzimiat does not abate one jot of the barthena ; but it puts into :he pocket of the government what went before into the pocket of the Pasha. The people know what they have to expect, and that nothing more can be demanded from them—at least, legally—hut that more demands are made from them illegally, and, in spite of the tanaimaat, I met with too many proofs, besides the instance I have already mentioned of the c h arcoal-co at Argana-bladen. In fact, a similar _._.. carves exists in the neighb;urhood of the silver mines of Kebanmaden, on the Euphrates. The ems of Amens, in the pashalik of Kharpont, consists of 48 villages. These 46 vilhon, besides paying a heavy sahlian, are Obliged to (tar si& annually 4,000 casters of charcoal to the minis Be Ilhe use of the smelting-houses, and the poor Kurile who drive their laden asses there, receive not a piastre for either charcoal or carriage, and ere severely beaten if they murmur.

Under the Tanzimaat books are also kept,, and public registers accessible to all, so that it may be exactly ascertained what each man pays; asd if he par more than he ought, he can, it is said complain to the can ' teal government. He can ; but who imagines that such a privilege can be safely used by the poor, who lie at the mercy of the assessors, these being the big people of the place. The official people at Constantinople will tafic to you about • fine municipal system existing throughout Turkey, but which I have found nowhere. They Say that on a certain day the people of a village meet and elect, say ten notables; then one is elected by the ten out of their own body, and he is sent to represent the village at die chief place of the cue. Then out of the chief =es one is elected to represent them at the of the pachalik ; and thus three municipal Made are formed. All this sounds very well, but ** bit is, that in Trebinond, Sivas, Kharpont, and Bhelseldr, where I have made inquiries, nothing of the sort exists. Everywhere the cadi, the mufti, and the ullema here the distribution of the taxes in their hands, and shove the burthens on the Christians. Before the arrival of Ilse l Pasha at Diarbekie (about a year ago he sou passing thsoogb on his way back from Mosul) the burthens fell nearly exclu sively upon the Christians. A wealthy Chaldean merchant represented to this promising young Turk the state of the case ; and he instantly, with his usual vigour, summoned the cadi and the mufti, and advised them to make • more impartial distribution of the taxes otherwise they might hear of it from Constantinople. The hint was taken, and the taxation is now placed upon a fairer footing. Under the Tenzimast, where the amount of taxation isnot excessive, and the personal distribution of the beechen& is impartial, some ease is no doubt felt, particularly by the Christians, and some. ;ymptoms of infant prosperity are beginning to appear. dans of the villages in the district of Sivas appear to be well off. One is sometimes astonished at the quantity °ream and cattle belonging to a small hamlet. But when you pass into the pschalik of Kharpont you behold the effect of cones, and of excessive millions. Ruined and abandoned villages lie scattered about the desert hills. These are Kurdish their inhabitants have fled to chieb in the mountable at war with the Porte. I have already described the way in which the poor people of Arguoun are oppressed. And what does the government do for this burdened people ? Does it provide them with one school ? Does it build or repair one morgue ? Does it furnish fair tribunal. for the administration of justice ? Does the exorbitant sum I,7ool.,writng from 700 poor village families) return to them in the shape of any benefit whatever ? No. But not content with withholding the commonest benefits of • government, it afflicts this squeezed popul.tion with odious rorrees: and, in the teeth of its own repealed abolition of such iniquitous vexations—in direct contradiction of the Sultan's word and will, proclaimed far and wide, It addles these wretched weatures with the curse of forced and gratuitous Meer. Between Sivas and Kharpont, the road is =el with Affshars, the fleeced robbers in Asia .

MONEY MARKET & CITY INTELLIGENCE. Half- paat Two. —Great interest was excited in the City by the appearance, in the Daily News this morning, exclusively, and in wry nearly the whole of its impressioi published at the usual early hour, of its Extraordinary Ex• press from India, via Trieste, brought by Mr. Wsgborn, and thus affording another signal proof of his rare untiring energy and perseverance. The advice, by this arrival represent money to be scarce gad trade dull at Bombay, at the date (December 2), in some of the principal imported commodities. The chief ex ception appears to be in cotton manufactures, which, without much active business, were well held. The partial money pressure at Bombay gad affected tits more animated state of the market at Calcutta at the date (Nov. 7.2), to the extent of raising the rates of interest. Exchange, however, was rather better. The Bank of England returns of averages for the week ending the 26th ultimo, show, sa compared with those of the week preceding, an increase of issue of 29,0301,, the total issue on average having risen to 28,442,0301. In the banking department the active circulation was an ir - cream to the extent of 79,8001., the average amount of notes out among the public being 19,628,3 851 . The public deposits bad increased to 10,341,3141., an exam for the week of 493,5711. Private deposits, on average 7,696,1721 , were more by 80,469!.

The rest shows an improvement of 6,6521. in the total amount of 3,447,4061. Seven-day bills were more by 14,0891. in a total of 882,5281. The large government payments additional during that week on revenue account, which nixed the tots] amounted public deposits so high, constitutes a feature in these returns which can be explained only when the revenue accounts are published. But the chief point is the very considerable in crease under the head of " other" securities. It results from the fact that the Bank had been liberal of loans OA the shut ting of the trariafer.bonke prior to the payment of dividend..
