(From iks Nrimey .Iforniny Ilvrald of Murch of the n•ggeta being much larger than say preilessly ob tained: some of the largest equalled In else • flattened No S shot. The material washed we, from a very thin stratum of clayey subsoil, not more than a foot from the surface, i v digging from the side of the creek away into the fl it, which Ul.lll'oll MR yet the best way of proceeding, es the surface of ' the underlyiog rock may he more conveniently followed • while the water finds an exit into the creek. Several par tin have arrived from Launceston, Hot. at Town, and other part. in the interier, some among them experienced Rohl• diggers teem Calif rnia eel Victoria, who are quite unani mous a expiesting ri most favourable opinion of the atirife noes aglow of the Ogee ; and I am a-sured that the quasi tit. of gold al emely found by the iniperfi et m meta, yet us. el is decidedly greater than was yielded at first by the Vic toria digging'. Theta is every geological indication of abundance of I gold, but it is only the spade and the cradle that cat. reveal the precise tracks where the richer depoeits lay. It iv, however, very material that parties intending to commence the search should be furnished with a eradle ; wring with a chid) is a most tedious business, and, however skil fully maroged, must be attended with considerable lons of the precious metal. From what I have seen to-day and yesterday I em con vinced that, even now, an ounce • day may he relied •tpots as the result of proper washing ; and I doubt not that, as the flat shall be more dug into, larger nuggets and a richer yield will be the reward of perseverance. It should be borne in mind that this is the firs' cloy that efficient nieces have been used to extricate the gold, and that what has been done already is ',efficient to warrant a reasoneble expectation of a large and tepid increase of pro. duction. . I It ie nut quite ten mouths Mime uur auriferous treasures were that brougat to Isebt ; yet within that Niel period the culunie• of New South Wales and Victoria hare each 1514. peel about one million's worth of gold, or two anthem' worth in all. And when it is considered that this has been the produce of un.killed mining, a labour untrained to the peculiar employment, untaught by science, unsu.teined by capital; that, 11l our own colony as least, the number of diggers has ever borne the most ineigiiitieunt proportion to the extent and richness of the held, and that every day new region. of eurifereus deposit are found in almost every part el the interior, to the Reath and to the south, Al Will ALS to the west ; our friends at home may form some estimate as to what Australia is to achieve hereafter, with a population less inadequate to the work stir has to do, with the light* of science and experience to guide her operations. ..std with the aid of capital to give bur wipe to her energies. Aud we rejaice to add, that this million of gold produced iu New South Wale, has been gathered without any serious detriment to our other interests, and with the least pos.- . siule disturbance of public ureter and tranquillity. Oar corn-tields have still been cultivated, oar sheep nave still ik en shorn. Our metropolitan city remains a busy scene of commerce, and stately buildings are rising up us her streets. Our tui, big operations have assumed the character of settled industry ; our gold is collected without biota or contusive, and securely carried to market by the regularly established government escorts, at noderite expense to proprietors; while the quantities brought to idea and shipped for exportation are reported in the newspapers us well as those of any other of our raw productions. The a...Lineable. melt/ which has all along been maintained at our diggings, not by military restraint, but by the good sense and moral rectitude of the great mats of the diggers themselves, is indeed a just cause of pride to the colonists and uught to encourage thousands of our fellow-subjects at home to come over and help us. We need their help. Our flocks and herds arc increasing, while the labour market is eahausted. Wages have cense 'pettily advanced at rates averaging on the whole somewhat about 30 percent. We have ample employment for many thousands of emistrants,provided they be men who really give a good day's work fur a good day's wages. We do not want idlers: neither du we went any more of that 'swarming class of young gentlemen who can do nothing but sit on a stool and handle a quill ; of these we have always more than enough. But persons accustomed to hard work, whether mechanical or rural; and persons having money to in vest, whether of large amount or small, will find in New South Wales a finer opening than any o'her part of the world presents, or than was ever before presented.

(Pram the Paris Correspoadeut of the Daily News ) PARIS, JUNE 12. The three correspondents menaced with expulsion by the French government, were invited yesterday evening to the cabinet of the British ambassador. Lord Cowley Noce' dell to law in them that he had bud in the morning an interview with the Minister of Police. I have ulready stattd in n preceding letter that this interview was nut to le' of an official character, and that the anile.sudor's object was to ascertain in how far the real intentions of the go- vernment corresponded to the intimations of 111.1 Latour-Dumoulin, as represented to his excellency by the three correapondenta. It is sufficiently ob vious, from this statement of the tonbastattlor'r object, that the must favourable sus-.cr 011 the part of the Minister of Police would hardly present a positive result, as the government could not be expected to disavow the step taken by the director of the press acting under its Jade it. On the Mini" hand the moat unfavourable issue would be an emphatic and peremptory avowal that the government meant seriously to regard the correspondents as re sponsible fur all French news and comments there upon which appeared iii their respective journals, tidor under the head of letters from l'aris, or in leading attic:ea, and to deal necordingly with their privilege of residing in the French capital. lum aappv to be able to announce that the interview 01 Lord Cowley with M. de Maupas was in so far antistitetory that no such positive menace was main- I Nitwit by the minister of police. Short of such a distinct and hostile declaration, of ermrse, the illtell- tions of the French gore 'rat could be only felt in the dark, and vaguely infern d. M. de Mautus admitted that the direc'or of the press had been guided in this matter by his instructions. 'llw object of the warning was to bring the English correspon- . dents, in their own interests, to a sense of their true position in regard to the government whose hospitality was extended to them. With the correspondents of other foreign journals this had already long ago been done. The Prussian and Belgian correspon dents had been summoned to the ministry of police immediately after the coup clt'lai, and received warn ing that their residence at Paris would nut be tole rated unless they accommodated the •one of their communications to the new state of things, and abstained from propagating false intelligence coined with the design of damaging the government. The English correspondents had been omitted, because it was felt that the jealous sentiment of the freedom of the press prevalent in England might, in taking tire, filth. ugh without just cause, press hard upon the British government, and hence become a source of embarrassment and misunderstanding in the re'a tiona of the two countries. It was hoped that the English correspondents would be, without re ceiving a direct communication from the government, influenced by the warning given to their colleagues of other countries, and use a discretion that would spare the French government the disagreeable duty of admonishing them personally. That hope had, he regretted to say, been signally deceived. The three correspondents, at present in question, instead of taking example by the enforced moderation of others, seemed to think their charter enlarged by the in dulgence shown towards them, and proceeded with a growing license to spread the must unfounded ru mours, and to characterise the policy and person of the Prince Louis Napoleon with unabated hostility, reckless disrespect, and unbridled virulence. It was impossible for the government any longer to endure this license, or out of respect for its own impartiality to show towards the English correspondents an indulgence which had been denied to the correspondents of other nations. Consequently it was thought proper to visit them without further loss of time with ti e same warning which had been held out to their Belgian and German colleagues. Fur the rest he could state that the government, in opening a new account with the representatives of the English press, was anxious to forget their past offences, and would only look to their future com munications, as furnishing the rule whereby they would be dealt with. Henceforward, particularly after the offer of the government to afford every fazility of procuring official intelligence, and the verification or contradiction of reports in circulation, it would be their own fault, if by the continued repe tition of false news, and the renewal of unjust at emotions, they should incur the severe alternative of which they were warned, and oblige the government to proceed to their expulsion. Such, I believemes, if not the literal statement, at least the substance of M. de Mau pas's declaration. I must not forget to add that the mi nister of police made an express allusion to that law, mentioned in my letter of yesterday, which gives the government tho right of expelling from Paris, within twenty-four hours, any foreigner whose pre sence is obnoxious to it. Lord Cowley having lir Mood attentively to the minister's explanation, was anxious to all his attention to one point, which it appeared desirable to clear up. Ho would not at present enter into the question as to how far a cor resndent might be held responsible for the news published under the head of France in his Pans letter. He oven conceded that the aatherhad sea respondent might be reasonably enough held obliged to treat the person of the head of the state, in his letters, with the respect which was demanded fro m Frenchmen ; for certainly no foreigner living under the French laws could either expect or desire to make an unworthy use of the hospitality extended to him. But if he was rightly informed, M. Latour-Dumoulin had intimated that the correspondents would be held responsible for the language of leading articles about France, as if they were considered as hostages for the Now, behaviour of their respective . journals. Now, although he could not deny the existence of the law pointed out by the Minister of Police, which allowed the French government to send away any obnoxious foreigner out of France upon the shortest notice, it did appear to him that if it was intended to act up to We declaration, the correspondents would be placed in a very har d case. It had been represented to him that one of the correspondents warned by kl. Dumoulin had not only, upon demanding to be con fronted with proofs of his deviation from moderation of tone or accuracy of statement, been reproached with an extract from a leading article, but the ex tract in question was so mistranslated as to make it appear that a metaphorical expres s:on bad beau absolutely applied to the person of the Prince-President. He trusted that if the French news of English journals was submitted to so severe a scrutiny, and one so fraught with peril to the cor respondents, that this scrutiny would at least be con ducted with due care, that the representatives of the English press might not be unfairly dealt by. He also trusted that there was no serious intention of holding them responsible for the language of leading aiddein and that proper discrimination would be aced in separating the extracts from the Paris letters and those from parts of the journals over which a oar ssepriadent r ..miit here could not poseibly have the Last sentrel. lam not aware whether our ambassa dor ameseaded in extracting from M. de Manpss a selsgoric reply on this head ; but I can assure you AN his Excellency will not fail to urge the same point on his interview with the Minister of P Affairs. In the meantime there is every reason 11, teileve that the government will, for the moment. mg an an te d n w ted ill with paue h b a e v r i o n n f pro wir edi ed n S proceeding execute c*nes"n its - Maw of expelling them from France for emusents in which they have bad no seed am which they cannot exercise the least comerel. Lord Cowley having communicated to the ::12:'ideate the substance of his interview with is te r of Police, proceeded to inform them that he had also taken a Intl opinion since he last maw them, and found that the French government certainly had the right, claimed by the Minister of Police, of expelling from Franco within 24 hours any obnoxious foreigner. The statute upon which the French government rrAies for justifying its right to use summary jurisdiction in the expulsion of fo reigners is the law of the 28th Vendemiaire, year 6 (October 16.171147), the 7th article of which decrees that any foregoer residing within the territory of the French Republic, not a representative of any neutral or friendly power acknowledged by the French go vcrnment, or not having acquired the rights of citizen ship, shall be placed under the special surveillance of the police. His passport may be taken away from him at any moment ; and he may be ordered to quit the French territories, if it be considered that his per son. is likely to trouble public order. VICTORIA. hlcloourne, March 2, 115 . 1. I returned yesterday evening from the Forest Creek diggings, after a sojourn of some i•iurtmii nays, during which time I have employed myself in collecting such in formation as may prove serviceable to your readers. Any description of the scene'which bursts upon the new coiner as he descends the ranges that border the creek would be nest to superfluous, for so many writers have gone Ite fore in the portraiture of your own numerous diggings, that it would he but repetition were I to delineate those of Mount Alexander. The same numerous tents, the lime blazing watchfires, the same harking of dogs sad firing of guns, the same busy huts of man invading the territory hitherto given up to the beast or the savage. All these are the same as with you ; if I perhaps except that with us there is much more or each and every of them than there is in your colony. The Forest Creek diggings extend for a distance of some ten or twelve miles down the creek of that name, which is a tributary of the Loddon, the whole of the short ridges and gullies running down into it having proved highly auriferous, whilst( many of the back ranges and gullies have also produced good sam ples of gold. Where the Melbourne road first enters fairly upon the creek, the poet-office is established, and adjoining it is the A 'via newspaper office; these two forming one side of a capacious square. On the right is the ihread office, and one or two tents where refreshments are sold; and on the left a very largo and extensively patronised cating.house. The fourth side of the square Is fitted up by two very large slab stores, just completed as I left. I mention this spot pus titularly as it is here, owing to Sunday being the mail day, that on the Sabbath the diggers mainly congregate. It is here that persons anxious to discover relatives aud friends, assemble to hear tidings of, if not to find them. The con sequence is that during the whole of the Lord'adav the Poet Office-square is like a large fair. Vendors of almost every commodity fill up the centre. Apples, lemonade, oranges, ginger beer, peaches, matches, apricots, and cigars, are here sold to an almost incredible extent, one man to say knowledge Baying sold apples to the amount of 571. on Sun day week last. The Argus office also plays an important pert, that being the favoured oaper of the diggers, amongst whom it circulates some two thousand copies, all of which are sold for ready money. Rather a pleasing way of re ceiving subscriptions you will say , The front of the office is covered with notie es to individuals of where they will find their friends, and the same plan is fol , lowed at the Post-office, so that these two spots may be con sidered as the best known on the diggings. It is in this square, or close sdiciining, that Divine Serum is senerally performed, the vast assemblage giving a congregation such as is rarely ever seen within the walls of • church. I mean, of course, with regard to numbers. At such time, the scene is most varied ; the solemn strains of a psalm of thanksgiving strike upon the car, but they come mingled with the obscene ejaculation, or the blasphemous curse of some visitor to the sly-grog shop, while the cries of the re. tailors of fruits or drinks occasionslly drown all other Rounds as they dive into the crowd, and frequently into the congregation of worshippers, in their anxiety to sell their wares.

TASMANIAN GOLD FIELD. (From the Hobart Town Courier.) The fact of the discovery of gold at Fingal has created considerable excitement, and the particulars which we are able to furnish are all of a confirmatory character. At an early hour on Saturday placards were eased to the walls, announcing that a stage-coach was laid on direct for Avoca, within a few miles of the diges."' Seven or eight passages were taken at the Royal ma Coach-ciMee, and a large concourse of people went to witness the departure on Monday morning, sad gave the adventurers a hearty round of cheers when the oonveyeans started. Fisher's coach accompanied them to the tope the hill, and then returned. Additional information wee reserved by the government yesterday.
