This siornirs, says a second edition of yesterday's Lit - tryout Alttuic, one of the most extensive and extra ordinary robberies that has been perpetrated in this town f somas time, was discovered on the premises of Messrs. Cask "add/orris, sileeranithe, Church-st., at the {tonere( Tarlton street The circumstance having become known the greatest incitement was occasioned, and the shop of Messrs. Clark sad Morris was sumunded dunes the whole of the morning by pastas aniline to learn the past:undue of the robbery, which was stated to be very extensive, amounting to thou. wads of posods. The fasts of the case, so far as we have been able to collect them, are thew : Items. Clark and Morris Mired their shop about eight o'clock on Saturday night. Everything was, to all appear ance, made secure, and every precaution having been bikes to ensure robin, as far as bars and bolts could do so, the partners left the earn of business to enjoy the adnatsgis of a day of rest, in the fullest confidence that their property was safe. This mooning, shortly atter eight c'cleck, the shop was opened by Mr. Clark, who was astonished to Sod the stock la the utmost confusion. A quantity of morocco and roan jewellery cages were strewn upon the door, and everything appeared to have been ransacked or disarranged. It was et wee *silent that a burglary had been commute), bet it wee some time before en estimate of the extent could be strived at. The shop of Meagre. Clark and Morrie Is somewhat conspicuous, and has "double frontage, is Church street sad Tazieton , street. The firm also occupy a cellar, wh.cti is entered by • trap-door, from the beck pert of the shop. This door was found open, and en iron plate and for security spinet toe gelation wall of the neat seller bad been partially beat down so as to admit the body of a man, the brickwork behind having been removed to • merespead lag tenor. The adjoining collar, it appears, is used for storing coals by Mr. Joao', the lithographer, who occupies glees in TA:l*ton street. Thom offices, which are pan of a range, sad ass only hisaatod, aro immediately at the back of Messrs. Clack and Monis's establishment, and the entrance to Mr. Jones's cellar is at the end of • ground floor passage, at the side of the stairs. The wall of the passage which adjoiaa Metes. Clark and Morris's shop is pro geed by iron bars; but, strange to say, the entrance to the cellar had been completely overlooked. The lock of the door to Mr. Jones's cellar appean to have been picked, and sleo that of the door communicating with the street, The harglan then removed the bricks of the partition wall alluded to, beat down the iron plate, and thus gained weft to the 814. As we ban stated, the shop was in the greatest confusion. The show Isles had been opened, and seals, watch keg, brooches, chains, studs, rings, lie. were strewn about la great confusion. The morocco and roan cease to which we hare ramrod had all been emptied of valuable ardoles of jewellery, sad upwards of thirty gold bracelets and neck- Imes, tweaty-four valuable brooches, and fifteen sets of etude were missed from them. It is estimated that gold watches and chains to the value of 6001. were stolen, and diamond brioches valued at 3001, which were only received last week, having bees ordered by • esstomer ' were .40 missing. Besides these • variety of studs, Wageless, brooches, and ether articles were owned off. Al:egsther, the Ices is estimated by the tiros at 1,6001. The thieves sneer to have been disturbed, for they left behind a CM* of valeable diamond rim, sad several other articles small in bulk, which were coospicuouslv placed. Their object ap pears to have been to take only those things which were portabl., and might be readily concealed about the person. Many coujectures have been hounded as to the precise way in which the robbery was perpetrated. Some toisk that the thieves must have been concealed is Mr. Jones's Oder on Saturday night ; whilst others are of opinion that the burglars did sot commence their operations till Sunday. We are informed that four or tire suspicions charamen were aeon lettering is the vicinity on &today evening. As yet the thieves have not been apprehended, bet we have meson beksvo that they will soon be in the heads of the poll*. A WORD FOR MR. BRlNlTT.—Whatever we may say 'bow. the eeadeket of Mr. Bt.

Yesterday evening a meeting of the advocates of temperance was held in Exeter Hall, Mr. CALSIIII.I. la the chair. It was annoaaeed by handbills that several hard working run wouid attend. a leeted from the following occupations—gas stokers, gluablowers, brick/ashen, com positors, braufanden, fellmongers, chameleon. gardeners, ; and that they would aurnstrats, from their own experience, that entire sticinence from irrong drink is pray finable in connexion with the most ulnas toil, and pro motive of health, comfort, independence. and political, social, and moral elevation. The large bail was nearly filled with the working classes, male and female—lathers, mothers, and thew children. The CHAIRMAN, in opening the proceedings, expreued his satisfaction on seeing 69 .amorous an assembly. He ea plaint d the object to be a temperance demonstration, on the basis of total abstinence. He hat tried the temperance principle, under all circumstance., for the last 1.5 years, in summer and in winter, as an operative and se an employer, end he had labour. He found that be could get through his work better on a system of total abstinence than only partial temperance, such as drinking beer. He sommentel on the moral, social, and political advantages of total al:stings:ea to the working daises, and drew a contrast between the home of the workman who was • temperance man and that of the arisen who spent hie earnings is a public- house. The ex ample Weeded the children, who *staidly grew up I. the habits of their parents, whether they were good or evil. Let them look at this MI • labour question. It the working man bought useful irides of clothes and deseirthe aseteeefla instead of I.edlai his weer spas the 1 . hise_ails" "F the _ eaZer this an employer of labour in lb. coma; aka*, he costumed. He appealed to all labouring ▪ and labouring women to unite and co-operate io the great work of rendering the people teetotallers. There was to be sweat gathering at the temperance house in Hyde perk. He called It eo, because he had eserved with pleuure that the counsissionen had decided that in supplying the refreohmeata no intoxicating Noon would be allowed to be served in the building. (Cheers.) And he saw, too, with gratification, that out of respect to them, the teetotallers, it had barn decided that the coatreetors for supplying the re ' freehments should be bound to keep filtered water, not to sell, but to give away to all who came to the Malmo! Palace and asked Tar it. A greet number of teetotal walking men would be coming to Landes, sad he thought that their Eno tropAitan brethren ought to exert themselves to give them a good reception. (Haar, hear.) Every facility should be given to those visitors in procuring lodgings for them. It would not be in the power of many of these poor people to pay :he high prime of hotels sad boarding lows, and it something were not done he wee suivineed that nosy of throe waking people corals' to London would be obliged to3wa k the strew all night butanes they mold sot pay the exorbitant prices demanded of them for lodging. He hoped that those of the London teetotallers who were hLuseholders would see what was to be dens in the tau, and whether any of them had spare beds which could be let : and he intended to propose the formation of local committees to visit those householders, see what accommodation they could afford, end to register them as lodging• for teetotal visitors to the Great Exhibition; and by enteriog into communication with teetotallers in the country to make arrangenteata for giving them • ticket when they came to town, which would procure them respectable accommodation. (Hear.) This pion, he trusted, would be productive of mach advantage to the teetotallers who were coming to visit the metropolis. He trusted that their future nitwit gs in the hell would be so well attended as on the present occasion; and impressed upon them thst they must give support to the cause lot only by their attendance but by their pecuniary aid. He then oiled upon the first of the working men who were to address the meeting. Mr. GROVE, a coil whipper, said that temotali‘es bad been • glorious thing to him end his family. He had been a coal whipper for mazy year', and remembered the time when they were called the " White Slaves of Wapping." Then the system woe that the publicans employed all the coal whippers, and the man who drank the most rum, or gin, or beer, received the most work to do ; and then they bad none of them any time to improve their minds. But. thank God, it was not so now, l ir great improvement bad taus place. Here he described the gloomy vault in which ho received Ida first engagement ; it was in the houae of a puhltcen, and men blackened with their work were eittirg there and imoktnr their pipes, and made it look more like a smuggler's case than anything else. He had been told before he became • coalwhipper that he would earn 65.,91.,and even sometimes 18e. • day. He had thought if he could earn so much that he could afford to drink • little, but he soon found that three parte of his earnings were to go to the publicans. (Rear, hear.) The eights of the children growing up in the ways of their father was the occasion of his be coming a total abetinance man. At host he was ridiculed by big mates after taking the pledge; hat be ha made his determination, and went on steadily. litre Mr. I:rove de serihsd the advantages in lietail which had licensed to him and his family from his change of habit; how they had ob tallied more clothes, and Poised themselves in raspectability of station. Mr. TANNER, • brickraaker, next spoke. He had adopted the principle of total abstinence Leal, 11 years, and eintinued it. But if he were to describe the details of Me drinking canner Wore that, he should not be done till Satur day bight. lie had been once a drunkard, and had suffered . , mien from it; he was in the most miserable position, eaten working from 4 is the morning till Bat night, living upon nothing bat the null loaves sod strong beer of the publi• caw. His meals were a loaf and a little tea, and he was obliged to sleep under a shed. But he now came before them a comparatt.ely independent man. (Hear, hear.) Before be took the pledge his home was miserable, his wife and children were miserable, and all his clothe, put together were not worth the day's pay of a soldier, 13id. To talk about working men not befog able to do without thick was nonsense. Ha was now a better man and a much stronger man than he was is thou days when he drank; and before he took the pledge of total abetineoce be was sometimes two or three days without food. During the last three years he had worked herd enough, but it was not work of the band, but of the head. Mr. L. ILLRFOaII, • ovipositor, nest addressed the mewling. He said he had never been a drunkard, although he had drunk • little , but he had found such manifest ad va•rysa is total abstinence, that he adviszd all to follow the matins Mr. WHBT, • skinner or fellmonger, followed, and his speech was much of the same cheracter as those of the others. 'Mr. HALL (trout Nartk.sapton), a carrier, said ha could not, Ilk* some of the speakers, say he had raver been a drunkard, far he was ens for army years, and the habit was to be traced to bishtsUy having sent hint when a child to the public boa's for the 111111116111111 beer. He ►ad bean takes hone drank bakes he was Hi years old, and this was attri butable to socking but the 'sample ef tea intssaperanse of his pariah,. He conehtded by strongly advising parents not to mad tisk. children to public houses for the bear for their steals ; foe that was tit* original cause and foundation of his own habits of intemperance. A collection was here made to defray the expenses of the muting, and at the class of it JOHN PALMER, a coetennoopr, addressed the meet- ing. He said that one of the most unpleasant fobs • temperance man could have to do was to state, as a reclaimed drunkard, the results of his experience. He had commenced drinking when very young ; and had been taught by his wean, in the first instance, that a small portion of home brewed ale was neosesery and good for him. As he grew up he thought, line many other lads, that it wu honourable to Aglit fee kis king and country, sad so he entered himself on board amen of woe, and there ha was taught to believe that he would never become strong, and never learn to kill people without taking a portion of intoxicating drinks. Up to 1818 he continued to drink in what was called moderato qaantitiee. Up to 1822 be drank when on shore in large quantities and when at sea in small quintal's, and sometimes drank nothing at all. In 1822 he met with an accident on board the ship sad was compelled to go into the London Hospital. After his discharge from the ship he thought he mast have a wi , e, and • pretty character to be sure he was to take ears of a wife when he could not take care of himself. (Laughter and cheering.) Up to 1840 he continued in the drinking world. But let them mark the difference. At one time he had shuddered at the idea of being a drankerd, but he coofeseed that before he became a teetotaller he had been an inveterate drunkard and had loot good situations through drinking. He became • regular de graded and disgraced character in lisolutay wish, poiated at with scorn by some and tend for by none. (Hear) Soma people thought they could can droakenneas by punishing the drunkard, but it was no such thing. Nis one had suf fered more than he had from the habit of drinking. He had use had his skull fractured in • row by the staff of an officer, sad ea smother omission be had been injured by a quart pot throws at him in a quarrel. Ho had also been injured by fighting with • man ranch heavier than himself. He bad, in a word, suffered a martyrdom by joining la the drinkirg pumices of this country. (Hear.) Ho signed the plc !se lint for three menthe, and alter he had put his name in the Dirk he said to the chairman that he wu determined to go without intoxicating drinks for three maths, and U be found that the abstinent" did him say harm, he would tome sad tell the teetotallers that it had done to. Bat he did ate wilds eves the throe months over ' for he then began to read, and to thick ; and to learn sad inwardly digmt the satirist, and six wells attar be had put his name to the pledge he beanie • teetotaller upon principle and had remained so ever since. (Cheats) ) He felt tea years younger tkaa when he was a drinkiag man, and he now spoke in the presence of hie wife sad three shildroo, who wen not for • sad her. sat a regular teetotal wife. (Cheers.) His old companions had told him he would die under the teetotal system, but he had sot felt ea U ha was rig to die, bat on the contrary wee itemise tad la better health ; sad all he could say wda,that U he was to die, be should have at lout this 'Natal, that he should di* sober. (Hear, hear, gad otieriag.) He coaeluded by earnestly eilsortini all present to regard the gin-chop light us the bei.coa which warned the mariner of rocks and quicksends,and danger ; by , etrengly advising them all, if they wanted to atop drunks°. nem, to combine together in the resolution to buy nothing— at article whatever—of the publinted—not even ginger beer, or a bit of tobacco, or a eine/, or any thing elms that was IMO innocent in its edema. (Chun.) /dr. MURRILL (a gardeaer), Mr. Dtcesore (a glass blower), spoke next, and their speeches were something of the some thereat r, being descriptive of the evils of drunken. hem and the advantages of abstinence, denying the necessity of strong drinks to working men of whatever Bleu they were and however laborious their oerupatioue might be. The last speech was from Mr. MOUTON, en iron moulder. He said he was one of the oldest advocates of the abstinence system, and the first of the iron moulders who declared for the principle—(hear, hear)—which had now greatly pro. greased In thin branch of working men, at.d he was givi to say that not a fins nor a footing was now imposed in the trade. (Hear.) lie bad been 13 ye.rs a teetotaller and it had not killed him yet. Sung workingmen had scarcely clothes to their hawks, and that bad been his own predicament before Inking the pledge ; but now ha bad a little library, for which he would not take 201. Let working men know their owe real value, and assert it by their conduct. It was all staff and nonsense for them to say that they could not get through their work, however heavy —such as the manufacture of great iron wheels--without their beer. He had shown that he could do very well without it, and so had a great many others. Where were their wives and children to go when they fell sick or died, when they bad died: all their means away, and had made no provision for them ? (Hear, hear.) There were no almshouses built for them, and this should be a lemon to working men to take care of their earnings end save. Wont the "pale face was turned to the wall" when were the widow sad children to go? The CffelaMelt then announced the meetings that were to be held ; and after a vats of thanks bad been passed to and acknowledged by him, the meeting 'operated, at "brut • neaftar rill 10. am ?be prosemedlngs were perfectly idle' turd orderly dem to THE PROPOSED NEW ELECTRIC TELE- GRAPH COMPANIES. The proposed applications to Parliament in the en suing session in connexioa with telegraphic eression in this country and collaterally with the continent, embrace pro posals on • bold male for the purpose both by sea aid land The Submarine Electric Telegraph Company, for establish ing that system of sommuuttation between England end France, propose to incorporate themselves by Act of Parlia ment for the pupas., the better to enable them " to execute and lay down apparatus and machinery by `which electric currents and commilairations may be conveyed by wires, pipes, and tuba uuder anti scrota the high sem."

RAMSOATE.—Two lugger', the Buffalo Gel and the Charlotte and Ann, were at see to render assistance on Saturday morning the 28th ultimo, when they descried a vessel on the Goodwin Sands; to her they immediately repaired sad found her to be • lazy* brig named the Emerritia, of Clattherg, Ides with turpentine from New York, bound to Hull. The boats being engaged, imme• diately used all their exertions to get her off, which they succeeded in doing, and took her into the Dawns; and in the evening employed the Ressigata harbour steam tug to get her from the Dawns into the rojal harbour, which they aceomplietted about half.part 7 o'clock the same evening. From toe statement given by the crew, it appears that on the 17th ultimo, the yowl was struck by • heavy sea, which washed the master overboard, and he was drowned; at the same time the esa wide • clean 'weep of her deck., Lakin* with it the boats, cookhouse, bulwarks, stanchions, rails, ;and even an anchor and chain, from off the deck, filling the cabin with water and very seriously injuring the surviving crew. THICSELTONBHIP OF NEWARK FOR THE LAST SITINTT rocs Sppeara that the office of sexton in the paint of Newark hos bum in the family of the Corby. fur a period of upwards of 74 years, end is still retained in the family, to the satisfaction both cf the inhabitants and views then and there in existence. From dates we dad that the Brit of the family entered on °Moe In the year 1775, and died in 1795, thus b•iog 20 years in cam, In which period he buried Z 823 souls, Then we find that his son Jo►n. who bore the _Christian name of his father, on. ended him on January 1, 1796, and died in the year 1838, in which time he buried 6,918 tools, in 42 years ; and upon his decease the churchwardens for the time being took the ' matter into consideration whether the widow should hold the office for the benefit of hereof' and family, and it was agreed by them it should be so ; and by the aid of her sons, who will no doubt ultimately seemed to the office, she has carried out the occupation of sexton to this period; and, from the date of her huslend'e death up to the 23rd or November last, atialad.buriad, in 12 years, 2,803. There fore, if we pat the aggregate together we find—John Corby, rein, buried 2,823; Jam Corby, jun., ditto 6,918 ; Esther (the widow), ditto 2,803; total, 12.544 ; thus showing that in the space of 74 years this family have interred actually, as we believe, more than the population of Newark in 1840.

REVIEW OF THE BRITISH CORN TRADE DTJRING THE PAST WEEK. • The return of the arrivals of grain, palm, sad Boor, tato the port of Llndon during the quarter ending 28th December, 18.50, hoe just been published. In comparing the seat with the receipts of the corresponding three months in 1849, some striking differences will be observed. The quantities were 114 follows:—Wheat.

The official returns of the imp Ttations of grain, &c., into the United Kingdom has not ye; been completed, but for the alarm months ending sth December, 1560, the quantities were :—Wheisr, 3,453,876 qrs ; Barley, 994,754; Os's, 1,145,705; Rye, 94.07 8; Deans, 418,259; Peas, 167,533; Maize, 1,240,075; Flour, 3,286,749 Cut?. Very little change has taken place in prices since we last addressed our readers, and the positicn of the trade has un dergone no alteration in any material point. The mild wet weather bee rendered farmers very unwilling to thrash, and the supplies from the growers have net been by any means large ; but so unwilling have merchants and millers been to make any addition to their stocks, that, small as have been the supplies, they have proved more then ad: gnats to the demand, and great difficulty has been experienced in effecting sales at former rates. Ths extraordinary mildness of the season le forcing the young wheat plant prematurely forward, and tinkle its growth be speedily checked by frost, there may be some danger of its becoming to far advanced, or wb it is technically termed winter proud. This 'seems, however, to inspire no uneasiness at present; end for some time to come prices will be more itfluenced by the probable ex tent of the arrivals from abroad than by any speculation on distant future events. Though this is generally the period when the receipts of foreign grain are small, we have hitherto had good supplies ; for no sooner did the arrivals from the Nartherne porta of Europe begin to diminish than tbose from the Smith increased, and during the week now about to ter =kat', a considerable number of vessels wheat laden have again arrived off the coast from the Black Sea, the Sea of MAI, a d the Mediterranean ; meanwhile there is no im pediment to shipments being made from the near continental ports, the differeut rivers being still tree from ice ; and though our markets do not hold out much encouragement to con sign' twit continues to reads to week alter week Irons Freese and America. Under these circumstances there 'opens reason to believe that the winter will pass over without any break in the re gular arrival of foreign suiplice nom one quarter or the other; and any material improvement in prices is new regarded as lees Lisa y to occur than it was a month ago. Tile prospect of a rue is, at all eves.ts, regarded as too un certain to warrant investments, and purchasers seem in general determined to take no more of any article than what they require for immediate use. OA this plan have the transactions been conducted at all the leading provincial =Like's, and though (as we remarked in the commencement of this article) prices have rot varied materially, the turn has, on the whole, been against the seller. The arrivals of the article coastw'se into London hove been quite moderate, only 2,228 qrs. having been reported up to thi , (Saturday) evening. Tee quantity brought for ward at Mark lane from the neighbouring counties has mean while beau scanty ;_ indeed, the Ewe and Kent stands were nearly bare on Wednesday as well as on Friday. sad there were few off-n from Liecoloshire and Cambridgeshire. beIIOESI has nevertheless remained in an unseeingly de pressed state throughout the week, and that previous prices had been maintained may be attributed more to the absence of transections than to confidence on the part of sellers, who would probably have been disposed to have made some con cession if sales could thereby have been facilitated. The receipts of wheat front abroad have been sufficiently ample to render buyers in a great measure independent of the home supply, upwards of 23,000 qrs. foreign having come to hand during the week. The attendance of country buyers has been thin, and the local demand having like ease been of a retail charac-er, the operations have been altogether unimportant. holders of parcels is granary have manifested no inclination to accept less money than before, but from on board ship rather lower terms have in some instances been taken, in order to save landing expenses; this has, however, not been sufficiently ' , gennal to warrant alteration in quotations. We have not heard of any bargains having been closed is floating cargoes' on passage or off the coast. The sale for flour ha been very heavy throughout the week, and, though the nominal top price of town-made has remained stationary, other sorts have been sold rather cheaper, especially the middling and inferior descriptions of French, of which the quantity here is just new rather large. The arrivals of the snide from abroad have con aistod of 3,324 sacks from France, and 6,342 barrels from America. Barley has come to hand rather freely, 4,772 qrs. having been received coastal,,, and 6,462 qrs. from ioreign ports, the latter consisting principally of guiding qualities. The mdtaters and distillers have conducted their operations with weenie caution, but selling have refrained from pressing business, and have generally refused to accept lower terms for good qualities than those current on Monday last. The demand for grinding barley—which until recently was rather active—has this week fallen off, and foreign is not worth quite eo mush as it was a short time ego. The (lull state of the barley trade has not been without some influence on malt, and the latter utiele has moved off very tardily at late rake The supplies of oats have increased materially; from our own wan 2,762 qrs. from Scotland, 3,63 l ; from Ireland, 11,349; and from abroad, 6,296 qrs. having come to hand. This incense shows how speedily a small rise in prices will draw 'unpile*, the slightest chance of profit being sufficient to iodine merchants and other to enter into competition by con signing wherever an opesing offers. The large dea'ers have not been slow to take advantage of this sudden secession to the quantity on the market, and have held dr purchasing, in expeetation of buying cheaper so moon as the lying days of the vessels shall have expired. Business has consequently been heavy throughout the week, and Monday's reduced terms have been obtained with difficulty. Beans and peas have excited very little attention, and quotations of thus ankles have remained nominally un altered. The Irish demand for Indian corn having slackened, few transactions have taken place in fres-on-board cargoes. THE FOREIGN CORN TRADE. The accounts from the Baltic are not by any means interesting, scarcely any transactions having taken plane in that quarter, either for immediate or for spring shipment. The weather had continued mild, and the navigation was then still tree from ion. The unfavourable state of the ea change on England had tended greatly to interfere with business, and had rendered puttee unwilling to eater into contracts for delivery in spring. • - - _ At Danzig the exchange wu from 3; to 44 par Dent. lower thee tittle Wheat wu quoted much the same se beton, and floe qoalinee 11 granary had been held with great amine.

Now that public attention is drawn to the growth of tea in our colonial possessions, it may be of interest to observe the progress of the Javan tea cultivation. The impart of tea into llclland last year was:— Chinese, 33,176 chests; Javan, 6,897 ; total, 40,073. So that more than one-sixth of the supply of Hol , land is now derived from Java, ar.d an import has taken place into this country of Javan tem. These teas fetched good prices in Holland throughout the year. The Brazilian growths are continued in that country, the United St.ites supplies are still small, and the Assam exports are far from making such pro- gress as to promise any influence on cur marko'. Among many tubjects of engrossing interest there is one question which deserves more attention from the public then it has receive d, and that is the resto ration of the English whale trade. While ' notwith. ' standing the temptations of California, American whaling in the North Pacific is pursued with gr. titer eagerness and greater succss. than ever, Engiiah en terprise in that quarter still continues stationary. Many circumstances have occurred to affect the oil trade, but so tar from being in a declining eoadition, the Americans find in Europe a market fer mach of their prance. Thus there is every encouragem at for rational enterprise in whaling, hut it is to he regretted various cams have tends(' to limit cur participation in it, or rather to reduce our share to a very email one. The means of r.medving this state of affairs have attracted the attention of many eminent men, bit the only practical measure adopted is the itlisti!ll. tioa of the Suutittra Whale Fishery Company, the progress of which is looked upon with some aux :ety. The company po.sesses several elem'nts which are calculated to promote its welfare, and has re ceived some degree of encouragement from the go ' vernment. By bringing together a considerable capital, it is prepared to meet the casualties and risks which attend this trade, and might baffle a single ad venturer. By posees-ing a charter, it is erabltd to enlist the support of capitalists, without involving them in personal liability. In the United States there are legal facilities in obtaining capital, which are the germ of their great uneertakings. M it of the mills of Lowell, of the ironworks of Pennsylvania, and of the great manufacturing establishments throughout the northern and middle states, belong to joint-stuck asso ciations, the members of which are either proicced from personal liability by charter or by generel laws, affording privileges similar to those of sociiNs ann. nymes or en cominanditn, The want of this bectseery protection for association has hitherto put us under a disadvantage in competing wish the American whalers, and deprived our people of capital. The Southern Whale Fishery Company are now, however, specially protected ; and they have arother advantage in the pnasession of a good whaling station at the Auck.ancls. The reports with regard this settlement are now before UP, and we have looked at them with some degree of anxiety, to see whether the experience of Governor Enderby justifies the favour able accounts given by Sir James Rosa and other navigators. It ban too often happened that such ac counts have not always been found supported by practice. Thus, the first PE taltment is A..stralia had to be moved from Botany Bay to Port Jackson ; and neither at Algoa Boy nor Swan River did the first settlers find that the flattering picture of the disco verers was realised. As yet, with the small means at his disposal, the governor has not been able to do very much, but he has found a healthy climate, luxu riant soil, abundant herbage, good vegetables, and thriving stock. The few New Zealanders on the Islands bear good testimony to the climate and resources, and are found very useful. Supplies are re idily got from Sydney and the neighbouring settlements ; and, as the prospects of the whaling ground are confirmed, there is every hope of a successful issue to the enter- Prise.
