We have before the us string, o f front many hundreds of committees, '"-gs• the conduct of the inspecting officers, and ly and honourably expressing their gratitude to ee minntent and the legislature for the effective means Vi em tad them for carrying out this benevolent iteth eme, This testimony is the more honourable from se ey of the parties, who avow the little confidence or, felt in the minimize on its introduction, and from others miss shall that they c ar e habitually opposed to the existing ent. ID recording, however, these proofs of the =derived from the set, we are far from desiring to ex gems an opinion that it is one for ordinary application ; on the contrary, we are fully aware of its may dangers and e vils, Sad that it could only be justified by such an extreme oesdon, including a combination of cis cumstances that can badly be expected to occur again. On reference, we find that tie Central Board of Health do not as yet 'consider t h e mselves able to draw up &satisfactory report on the work. iag of the Fever Act. We, however, annex a tabular state ment of the result for the month of September, by w hich it will be sees that the amount of pa tients under treatment in the month has been 26,378 ; the proportion of deaths being &lout I in 26 only. The entire expenditure under the Fever Aet amount& to about 120,0001., which includes the erection and ftrniehing of the fees sheds. In consideration of the additional affliction of the epidemic falling upon the country in unequal degrees, your lordships have authorised that the entire outlay should be defrayed by the state; a measured considerate liberality, which we have every reason to believe is highly appreciated. Thc final adjustment of the accounts in detail with each electoral division, which will be proposed for your lordships' 'section, has been delayed by continued outstanding and some dilatory proceedings on the part of committee clerks; but they are in a very forward sate, and may fur nish a future supplementary document for the appendix of this report. We have now only to repeat to your lordships' set entire satisfaction as to the conduct of all branches of the department which have been labouring with us. In our fifth report we adverted to the able manner in which the inspecting officers had performed their very arduous duties. We have now the testimony, shiest universally, of the several committees, that while meeting the views of the commissioners by requiring strict regard to every regulation, their courtesy and attention to those local authorities gained fur them general respect. The course of the proceedings has repeatedly brought forward the value of the arrangements and services of Mr. Bromley in the account department, and he has recently received flatter ing proofs of the satisfaction and assistance he has give n to the inspecting officers and to the committees. We now to add our deep sense of the seal and ability of Mr. . T. Hamilton, who succeeded Mr. Stanley in the °Mos of mere tary, and who has performed every part of hie service entirely to oar satisfaction, and greatly to the advantage of the public—We have the honour to be your lordships' most obedient humble servants, J.

Mr. It. H. Beecher, a magistrate and landed proprietor, pre sided. The meeting was attended by gentlemen of all per missions and of all politics. Protestant clergymer. and Roman catholic took part in the proceedings, end all with one accord proclaimed themselves favourable to tenant-right as ex pounded by Mr. Sharman Crawford. This is a meeting which, from its constituents as well as the views it has ',laud on record, is well worthy the attention of those to whom the carriage of the measure promised. by Lord J. Russell, for the regulation of landlord and tenant in this country, shall be en trusted.—The Chairman sa'd he had himself the honour of being appointed one of the deputation to wait upon Mr. Sharman Crawford a fortnight ago from that union, and from him he ascertained what be heard and read of, and what not only satisfied him that his was a correct and proper Mew of the question of landlord and tenant, but one which was practically carried out by Mr. Sharman Craw ford. He saw that not only in those portions of the county of Down which were contiguous to his house, but in every part of the country where he had property, his property was more like a garden than like farm land. The Rev. Mr. Fitzpatrick, in proposing the first resolution, elicited the sentiments of his auditors as follows :—The first part of that resolution stated that the relations between land lord and tenant, as they at present existed in the Skibbereen Union, were exceedingly unsatisfactory. He asked them now, lest it might be said afterwards that they adopted the resolution through courtesy, or in deference to hint as a clergyman, did they deliberately believe that the relations now existing between landlord and tenant in that county were unsatisfactory ? (Loud cries of "Yes, yes.") They all appeared to admit that they were se. ("Yes, yes.") The resolution also mid that the uncer tainty of tenure by which the tenant held his land was one of the causes. (Ones of "Yes.") They appeared to de clare that it wee so. C' Yes, yes.") And next it stated that the absence of any guarantee for compensation to the people who expended their labour and their capital, was another of the causes. (Loud cries of "Yes, yes.") Then they had already affirmed the three parts of the mointion be had to propose , they had declared and concurred with it in the first place that the relations between landlord and tenant at present were unsatisfactory ; in the second place, they had unanimously affirmed that one cause of the evils arising from the system was the uncertainty of tenure ; and, in the third place, that the absence of a guarantee for compensation to the tenant for his improvements was another cause. The Rev. Mr. Webb, of the established church, thus added the concurrence of a double class—the clergy of his commu nion and the ministers of property. Ile concurred entirely in Mr. Sharman Crawford's plan of tenant right. (Hear.) Two years before, if any one had told him that he should be found to stand up and advocate what he then understood —or rather what he did not understand—by tenant right, he should not have believed him. He was now totally and en zirely undeceived. (Hear, hear.) He now believed that tenant-right, according to Mr. Sharman Crawford's plan— for there was nothing more misunderstood than tenant right —would be beneficial to the country. (Cries of "Hear, hear.") He believed that a law to that effect would be more beneficial to the landlord himself than to the tenant. (Hear. hear.) Indeed it would be chiefly beneficial to him, beanie his rent would be perfectly secured, and he was satisfied that such would be the case if the land were properly nulti• mad and improved. He did net think that any drainage act, or any other act, could ever lead to such encouragement of industry in the people as Sharman Crawford's tenant right. (Cheers.) Ifthey chose to go on as at present, giviog ne encouragement to industry or capital, the landlords would have to look for their rent in America, or in nubibus, but if they adopted the system of Sharman Crawford's suggesting, instead of that, they would have their tenants improving the ground, and he would venture to say, the rent paid up to the day. (Cheers.) He was a manager of property him self, and he could state that he would have 1,0001. more in his pocket that day, if tenant right were allowed. STATIC or THE COUNTRY.—Thers prevailed through town to-day a rumour that the high sheriff of one of our midland counties, which returns two repeal representatives to parliament, had been shot last night. Ido not, in the absence of positive information, wish to be mars precise. As evening paper, without giving particulars, Mates that a mur der was committed yesterday at Borrieoltane, Tipperary. SCOTLAND. EDINBURGH, Nov. 30. The Edinburgh Advertiser authoritatively contra dicts a rumour that certain negotiations between Dr. Kaye Shuttleworth and the parochial schoolmasters had failed 'it being now averred that " no parties a uthorised by the schoolmasters have had any inter -view with that gentleman since his arrival in Scot land, or even since the publication of his explanatory letter to inspectors, in which the scheme was first ar ranged, so as by possibility to include in its operations the parish schools of Scotland." With reference to college matters, Colonel Mare, the new rector for Glasgow University, is to deliver his inaugural ad dress on the 24th proximo, immediately before the Christmas holidays. His opponent, Lord J. Russell, " t eems rather annoyed at his defeat, Judging from the following . proxy letter received by the liberal students of the university, in acknowledgment of a petition sent by them, praying for the abolition d profes sional testa .

OE= . M 11 . '114 isq. Two waportant Aida ma bars fallen before the typhus pestilence in Glasgow , Dr. Thomson, the phy sician of the fever hospital, and Mr. Reid, one of the lieutenants of police. Of the men connected with the police force, 70 are reported to be off duty from fever, influenza, c. Regardi & ng the stoppage of public works it Glas gow, the following is said to be a correct statement of their number. In the power-loom weaving d m ent only 4 mills are working full time, 38 working from four to eight hours per day, and not less than 16 are entirely closed. 2,200 power-loom weavers, and 200 dressers and tenter', are at present on the unemployed list. In the cotton-spinning de . partment two mills are stopped, four are on full time, while all the others—a very - large . number in Glasgow and neighbourhood, and employing numerous hands --are working short time. Yet in the midst of all the distress implied in this statement, and as if the depth' of ruin must at once be penetrated, intemperance is increasing. On the night between Saturday and Sunday morning, says ,t• the Herald, 62 peenone, in the garb of operatives, were taken tip by the police for being drunk, 29 of the number being unable to take care of themselves. As two officers are genitally _required to bring up one drank man, it poesible that nearly one hundred watchmen would be temporarily withdrawn from their beats to deposit this inebriated squad in the police-office. This refers to the Central Police-office alone. The suburban establishments have their quota also ; and it may be added that it is only flagrant eases of diseipation which thus attract the attention of the police. In Edinburgh, the projected improvements on Leith harbour will give extensive operative employment. The contracts advertised for embrace a new floating dock, e- 'melon of the present breakwater, a low water d:c. Tel Glasgow Argus published its last number yesterday, after a career of about 14 years. The break-up at the late election of the party who established it, was the proximate cause of its discontanuance.—Scotriah Guardian, Nov. 30. SUTHERLAND/MUM—ANOTHER ROYAL VIIHT. — We were lately for a few days in Sutherlan dshire, where the march of improvement is at any rate keeping pace with the more southern cenatiee—the noble proprietor, his Grace the Duke of Sutherland always leading the example, by culti vating the waste soil ; and these parts he finds not suscepti ble of being cultivated, he plants with fir, larch, and hard wood, and thousands of acres have this year been planted. Besides, at his perhaps unrivalled castle of Dunrobin, there are still employed about 150 men. This princely building we visited, and when completed we are certain it will by far outstrip anything we have yet seen in Scotland. We were told it will be two years at least before it is finally finished, but ell the apartments intended for her Majesty are in a very advanced state, and will be completed early in the course of next season. It is now beyond • doubt that our gracious sovereign will visit Dunrobin next year, where, we are convinced, she will meet with as hearty a welcome, by both high and low, m in any part of her domains. A more loyal, devoted, and attached people than that of Sutherlandshire does not 'list, which they proved to be in bygone years on both flood and field. We cannot conclude this short notice (which we will resume in our next) without bearing our testimony to the love and esteem in which the noble proprietor is held by one and all in the county. If they are happy, he is pleased; and it is his heart's wish and desire that all should prosper. Have not his journeying* last summer throughout his extensive estates amply corroborated this fact ? Even the most humble ' bothies in the interior of the county he visited, and wherever he ascertained there had been any in the least want, b' instantly administered to their necessities. The soma 1 words, " He that giveth to the poor lendeth to the Lowl." ' seam to be engraved upon his grace's heart. Bat as w have already stated, we shall advert more fully to Bather landehire in our next.— lioss-sdire Advertiser Tres CLERICAL DESERTILIL—This individual has been tried by a court-martial for desertion, but the ratification of the sentence by the Horse Guards not having been received, the nature of the award is unknown. As few fugitives from barracks employ themselves so well as in preaching, it is to be hoped that the punishment will be lenient. TESTS IN van SCOTCH UNIVERBITIES.--Sil,—Permit tee to correct a mistake Into which you have fallen respect ing the power of the established church courts to enforce the tests in the Scottish universities. It is unite true that by the Act of Union the professors and other office bearers in these, universities are required to subscribe the confession of faith, and to promise that they will conform to the worship and I submit themstimes to the government and discipline of the I church. But it is a mistake to suppose that the church I courts have any right by law to enforce the observance of the act. On four different occasions the question as to the powers of the church over the universities has been brought before the civil courts, and in every instance the decision given has been adverse to the claim of jurisdiction put forth by the presbytery. In the well-known case of Professor Blsckie, for example, the judge before whom it wee do- , bated, declared in the most explicit terms that he had I " found no authority for any such jurisdiction either he** statute or in the principles of our common law," andffiffit the church courts have no power to interfere, even in Imp 1 Mel where the law has been violated. " Suppose," am I be, " that a ;ay professor, alter signing the confession of faith, had in a few days or weeks after subscription openly joined in the communion of the episc o pal dwell, the presbytery of the bounds would fi nd it very difficult to institute any complaint or action before this court to subject the professor to any penalty or forfeiture for alleged insincerity or falsehood in his sub scription. The answer would be insurmountable that let the right of complaint (if soy be competent) lie where it may, it has not beer conferred on the presbytery of the 1 bounds." It has been explicitly stated, both by Lord Cue-' ningharne in the case of Professor Blackie ' and by Lied Robertson in the CHcaseof Professor bl•Douall, that the Ilteteffi of the presbytery, in regard to the university tests, is peril "ministerial; " that the statute gives them no power of superintendence or control ever the universities; that it es In them no right of examination or trial of the W , either before or alter admission ; and no power to or to sae for deposition ; and that the only duty It commits to their charge is to tee the genuine copy lithe "„Confession of Faith" subscribed without alteration. The failure of the attempt to remove Sir David Brewster from his situation as principal of the United College, St. Andrew's, affords a striking proof of the accuracy of the statements made by the learned judges referred to above. That distinguish• d philosopher is in no degree indebted to the forbearance of the church courts for his retention of hie office. The Presbytery of St. Andrew's moved heaven and earth to eject him, but in vain. Their own counsel, Messrs. Cook and Inglis, informed them that they had no jurisdic tion to deprive him of a university office which they did not confer on him as patrons, and with reference to which no special jurisdiction had been conferred on them as a court by any statute. it was only after the ignominious failure of all their attempts to eject Sir David from his office, that the General Assembly by way of covering their defeat passed the vapouring resolution which you have quoted, and which everybody knew at the time to be a mere &rotor's/Wawa. While I make these remarks regarding the pretended juris diction of the church in regard to the universities, I must at the same time express my cordial coacurrence in the remarks i which you make respeettog the propriety of repealing the university teats. These obnoxious restrictions are utterly repugnant to the feelings of the age, and are prejudicial alike to the rights of eeascience and to the interests of science, and should, therefore, as speedily as possible, be erased from the statute-book.—T, —Glasgow, Nov. 25. 11BER 2, 1847. sod sab•Wrileslift we wet mewl sad beery eseallea eld bw•d• wok weedier he iffe--eelr beak eflew—sed we deprowidly WI mashedwened.

LANCASHIRE. NORTH AND SOUTH WALKS BANK.—Yesterdny a fternoon a special general meeting of the shareholders in this bank was held in the Clarendon-rooms, at Liverpool. The attendance, which was pretty numerous, comprised several gentlemen from various parts of North Wales ; R. Griffith, Esq., chairman of the directors, presided, and the report was read by the manager, Mr. George Rte. The di rector', after enumerating the causes which had led to the stoppage of the bank, submitted to the meeting their present financial position. From this it appeared that the liabi lities were:—To depositors, 336,7981. ; notes in circulation, 35.7101. ; bills for collection, drafts outstanding, sums in abeyance, and other items, 21,3711. ; bills in the hands of third parties , 107,1921. ; total, 491,0711. The meets : overdrawn accounts and bills current, 664,1181 ; over due bills, 87,9221. ; total, 632,0401. The estimated loss is 29,8861., which would leave a produce of 602,1741 on those items : the bank house at Liverpool, Wrexham, Aberystwith, &c., 21,8131. ; cash is hand, 19,7641. ' • making the total as sets, 643,7411. Thus, as respects the creditors of the bank, the assets show a supine over the liabilities of 152,675!. Mr. Rae mentioned that the overdrawn accounts were 770 in number, producing an average on each account of about 440!. The present capital of the bank amounts to 165,46014 SAO loss we have already stated at 29,8661., less re served fond, 6,0741. • estimated profits for the billies: 12,0001., leaving a lo w upon the capital of 12,791!., and re ducing it at the present time to 152,6681. The report went es to say that the directors deemed it not only desirable , but emennal, that the bank should resume business at an early day. There was a most anxious wish that it should through out the principality ; and two-thirds of the depositors in the bank had agreed to accept their money by instalments of six, twelve, and eighteen months; it bearing interest in the meantime at the rate of five per cent. The directors now proposed an extension of the mull ter, with a view to West a resumption of busi ness, at all the branches, on Monday. the 3;d of Ja nuary next. They proposed to issue 10,000 preferential stares, 101. each, at par, bearing interest at the rate of 8 per cent., and payable, one-half before the 25th of the preseat month, the other taif on the 24th of January; and that it should be oblimp on every proprietor to be the holder of one presumes for every five shares whiehlesinay hold.

A RRSULT OF TILE " WHEEL OF FORTUNE" NIIISANCL—At the Manchester Borough Court on Mon day, a lad named Kirkman, en apprentice of Mr. G. Jackson, decorative designer, was charged with haying stolen from his master three picture frames and other goods. Mr. Jack am identified the articles. lie had no complaint to make of the lad's general conduct, and he never before suspected him of doing anything wrong. The prisoner's mother (a widow), on being questioned, stated that he had always conducted himself well, end brought his wages regularly to her ; but he had lately lost some money in one of the Lotteries or bazaars. The prisoner confessed that be had stolen the articles, bat said he was very sorry for having done so. Mr. Townend observed that these lotteries were a. great evil, and this was one lamentable consequence of them; the prisoner had been inducted to engage in them, and his having thus lost mosey was, no doubt, the come of his taking the step he had done. The magistrates discharged the lad.

A meeting nt h eopyholders and inhabitants of Bilaton was held on Friday last, for the purpose of taking into consideration the state of the law as it affects copyhold property, and to adopt such measures for its abolition as may secure to the copyholders the equitable rights in their property to . which they are fairly entitled, due consideration being given to the legiti mate rights of the lords of the manor. The Rev. J. B. Owen', took the chair, and slid—What they complained of was, Chet the fives paid on copyhold property were arbitrary, and therefore uncertain and unknown, and that these un- ' certain and unknown charges affected all property passing through copyhold courts. Whenever oopyhold property was purchased, the purchase had, consequently, an air of speculation. If they salted the parties connected with the courts what would be the expense of a transfer of such property, no definite answer was given, sad the amount was seldom or never known until the business was concluded. This uncertainty woe one grievance, and, if it stood alone, ought to be remedied—if it were incapable of remedy, it ought to be removed. Another ground of objection was the inequality of court fees in proportion to the velem of the property concerned. Facts in such a case were the hest ar gument, and he would mention one or two facts, withhold ing, however, as he thought it was right to do on the present occasion, the names of the parties concerned- In one in stance with which he had been made acquainted, upon a property belonging to a lady worth 1,000 guineas, the court charges were 871., while in another, the ease of three small houses in Smith's-court, worth 951., the court charges amounted to 601. (Shame.) And what was the practical result ? Why that cousiderable ingenuity was exerted to evade the payment of the court fees. He almost doubted, looking to the question broadly, whether it would not be better for lords of manors to accept almost say terms of enfranchisement rather than continue a system of fees which was as much as possible insela. Their object, howeverwas not to evade a just payumit ; the recognised the riglea of lords of manors, but in the fees exacted hew n , t oeq islity, there was no reasonable relation with the property transferred ; •and he thought they had a fair case to justify strenuous and even liberal eases to get rid of the evil by all fair and legal means. — Mr. tow said, in Batton espyhold tenure was a great grievance; 'My one present, he believed, knew this. He wee not • Mr holder himself, but, as he had before mentioned, he Melts* connected with it as a trustee. This had occurred in two instances; in one a very small dividend, 9d. in the pound, had been obtained; and in the other it WM thee& better to relinquish the property then incur the el mart fees. (Hear.) Thesis fees, as their rev. mees bob remarked, were uncertain ; they were, however, not mays pertain, but gradually increasing in amount. If from lel. they went to 601.. and then from 501. to 301., they might be uncertain, and something might be said for them ; bat throughout they had this certainty—they were certain et increase—they never went back from 501. to 301., however the property might have diminished in value. Following the example of their chairman, he should not math names ; but the property was only about 160 yards also* and the case was perhaps known to others prompt as MI an himself. In the year 1803 this property paid 3.. charge emit 3s. relief, in the whole En.; in 1808 101. was charged as the surrender fine; in 1812, 121. ; in 1848, 201.; and, in 1847, 271. Thus, from 1803 to 1847, this property bad pewee through tbe court and paid fees no less than firs times. —Mr. Bissell, in seconding a resolution, stated OM not many years ago he bought four small houses for 501. It cost the trustee 171. to surrender. and he (Me Bissell) had to pay 131. to be admitted. He remeamizated, was told to call upon the steward ; he MI me, end be get he thought, 21. returned. Thus the charge was ills wpm a property which had been bought for 501.--nr. Bole* add, when the bill for compulsory enfranchismimat was forward in the House of Commons, Sir Rabwt Peel tre first to second it, and had with his own bawl drawn the re solutions. That bill was thrown out in the House of Lords. Mr. Aglionby had told him that a party friendly . to enfran chisement were ready to act, but they must be assisted by " a pressure from without." Mr. Villiers had spoken to Sir G. Grey, who said he was unable to state what course govern ment might take, as the commissioners had not yet made their report, adding that it was thought unadvisable for any independent member of parliament to take the matter up until the intentions of government wereknown. They should act therefore upon the commissioners by the statement of brood plain facts, founded upon the justice and equity of their ease. The system could not stand ; it was unjust, improper, and unsuited to a civilised state of society. He was glad to bear that, since their agitation had 0011111MISSOk some plan ibe ameliorating their particular grieves* wield be brought Leeward—he hail heard within a meat. Ressiatices is unison with the objects of the meeting lamb; less a conversation of soma lengt h messed es Is the estme a t i rt taken by the society, w hich it wee deed el droll bete mil led facts, to promote meetings, to somorialbe gerremosat, and to petition parliament. Yeelings, it was should be held at Wolverhamplen.Wednethury , Cannock, Tettenhall, West Bromwich, Lepley, Brewood, and other neighbouring places. It was also stated that a meeting at Newcastle (in this county) would be held, some Mends there to the movement having expressed • wish to that effect. 'Eighteen or nineteen plaoes, in the whole, were named. Mr. Bolton adverted to the case of the house in which they were, in which a mortgagee had paid 1121.65. to be admitted for a mortgage of 3001., although the lord had another mortgagee a tenant for a mortgage of 6001., and thus the lord, - illegally, had two tenants instead of one. If the had been for only 501., there would have been ale m o rtg ut t lgl. to pay. Thus people were led to mortgage their property foe more than they wanted, on account of the e:- pence.—The Chairman added that the system operated as an extensive discouragement to improvement ; for a man felt that every fresh brick he laid brongbt with it a fee in some shape or other. They would pursue this just object in a just way, and he felt pleasure in noticing that every one recog nised the priacipl ‘ et ‘ hst an equitable consideration should be given for just r..

LITERATURE. Journal of an Overland Expedition in Australia, fro" Moreton Bay to Port Essington, during the years 1844-0. By Dr. LvnWtO LIMN/LARDS. Map of Lek/I/sorties Australia. By Joann _ If there be truth in the last repo reoeived Ikon Australia, Dr. Leichhardt has been obliged to put back from the great expedition, undertaken by him as supplementary to the journey the results of which are now before U B . In his s econd expedition he proposed to connect his overland route to Port Es sington with Western Australia, to " discover the ex tent of Start's desert, and and aracter of the weetern and north-western coast,o observe the gradual change in vegetation and animal life from one side of the continent to the other." For each • task it is scarcely possible to conceive a person more competent than Dr. Leichhardt. He has explored mach of the great southern continent—he is familiar with its na tural roductioas as an accomplished meteorologist, botanist, and geologist—he is inventive in devices for penetrating an unexplored country, and endowedwithl an almost superhuman power of noiseless, resolute perseverance. That such a man should have been flied speaks ill for the speedy realisation of oar hepea of seeing the Australian riddle solved. Yet, when we recollect how mach has been accomplished since 1913, and that Dr. Leichhardt still survives (to sav nothing of Eyre, Start, and a host of equally en tliusiastic pioneers), we are far from despondent. A glance at the second publication mimed at the head of this paper, by the associated idea. it recals, re-awakens hope. It reminds as forcibly of how much has been accomplished, and in how short a time. Mr. John Arrowsmith has made Austra lia his own especial field, as surely as his uncle made the Pacific his. British intelligence and daring have been amply displayed in Australian expeditions during the last thirty . years; but that the aggregate results of these expeditions have assumed the distinct and satisfactory form in which we possess them, is mainly owing to Mr. Arrowamith. With untiring patience and perspicacity, he has traced and retraced the route of every voyager and traveller. Taking the admirable operations of Flinders as his basis, he has, by collating them with the work of Cook and other circumnavigators, puzzled out the true position of the great continent, while, by collating them with the later surveys of Stokes, Black wood, &c. (not omitting King, where King was available), he has given us the real con , tours of its coast line. Thus prepared, he has plunged into the interior, and traced the routes of all successive explorers with minute attention and critical discrimination. Oxley, Owens, Hume, Cunningham, Start, Mitchell, Eyre, each has been studied by himself and with reference to all the rest. The result may be seen in Mr. Arrowsmith's general maps of Australia, to the wonderful fidelity and accuracy of which every new explorer adds his testimony. The already explored portion of Aus tralia is, thanks to his enthusiasm, so accurately laid down, that judgment in adding future dis coveries alone is required. The three-sheet map of Dr. Leichhardt's route is, we under stand, the first issue of a complete Australian map on the same scale on which all that is already known is to be entered, and on which smote sive future discoveries can be duly recorded. For this sample of the work we need only say that the various positions are so distinctly laid down, and the characteristics of each so carefully noted, that the " squatters" already in the act of precipitating them selves into the wide and inviting regions laid open by Dr. Leichhardt, need no better guide. Dr. Leichhardt's first connexion with Australian discovery was, we believe, his association in the capa city of naturalist to Sir Thos. Mitchell's projected expe dition from Fort Bourke. That exploration having been countermanded, the doctor devoted two years to the investigation of the country north of Moreton Bay. On his return to Sydney, he found the public interest in behalf of Es singt on Thoas's contemplated overland journey to Port , warmly awakened. But the forms of colonial government appearing to interpose interminable delays, Dr. Leichhardt, from his expe rience of the country and a bush life, conceived the idea of quietly executing . the task with lees of pompous preparation, by more simple means and at less cost, as a private individual. His own observations, com bined with examination of what had been accomplished by previous explorers, led him to adopt • different route from that which had been contemplated by Sir Thomas Mitchell, and that gentleman has since prac tically expressed his approbation of the doctor's deci sion, by adopting on his own expedition a route mid way between that from Fort Bourke and the one adopted by Dr. Leichhardt. We may add that the success of the latter traveller, and the comparative failure of Sir Thomas —though, of course, in these matters much depends upon accidental circumstances, and much upon personal temperament—is an addi tional proof of the justice of his conclusions. Dr. Leichhardt started from Jimba, then (if not still) the last station of civilised men in the most northerly squatting district of Australia- From that point, he pursued a coarse nearly parallel to the eastern coast of the continent, distant from it between 11 and 21 degrees of longitude, from the 27th to the 16th degree of south latitude. At the termination of this course he had passed the head of the great Gulf of Carpentaria. He now turned to the south-east, thence to the east, and ultimately to the north-east, and first skirting the declivity , of the table land, and then crowing the northern peninsula, reached Port Essing ton. This journey of upwards of 3,000 miles, through an unknown country, entirely in a state of nature, only peopled at rare intervals by a few scattered families of the race of men who appear to stand lowest in the scale of humanity, occupied nearly fifteen months. The party consisted originally of ten individuals, of whom two were natives, one a negro, one a prisoner of the crown, one a boy of sixteen years old, the rest free men of European race. One gentleman returned soon after starting, one was killed by the natives about midway of their journey. The two natives, though often useful, appear to have been as often in cumbrances. Two others of the European adults were wounded at the time their companion was killed, and thus became temporary ineumbrances. Of 17 horses maid bullocks, with which the party started, only one pack-horse and one bullock survived the journey, and e ven these had to be left behind , a few days' journey from Port Essington. Yet with these seemingly in adequate means, the truly German pertinacity of the commander of the expedition carried his point. Dr. Leichhardt's simple and straightforward narra tive may few attractions for mere readers in search o airr al usement. Its earnest simplicity, how ever, vouches for its entire truthfulness. All who are in search of substantial information will feel that it reflects accurately the character of the country through which it leads them. And to all who can understand the uncetentatious language of deep earnest feeling, it will convey a lively Int premien of the tranquil, powerful, and resolute cha- Teeter of the author. The country through which the expedition passed contains much available land for the stockholders of New Wales. Pertly, perhaps, owing to the peculiar temperateure at the sou th e rn hemisphere ; partly, also, to the elevation of Ithe land above the ocean level, it is, though peta -1 c ip a lly within the tropics, wonderfully adapted to the European constitution. A large and vale able portion of this region is occupied by the valleys of the Belyando (flowing from the south) and of the Bardskin (from the north), which, uniting on the 147th meridian east of Green wich, between the parallels of 20 and 21 south, at the distance of a degree and a half of longitude from the coast, assume an easterly course, and join:the sea near Point Upstart This accessible and available coun try cannot fail to be soon occupied by our enterprising countrymen in the southern hemisphere. There are scarcely any natives to be troubled by their presence, or to trouble them in return. The distance from Sydney, the homogeneous character of the district, point it out u a fitting locality for an independent settlement. Dr. Leichhardt's book and Mr. Arrowamith's map will be sufficient guides for the new settlement ; and if government do not on the one hand discourage or thwart it, or on the other trouble it with too much of their advice and guidance, we doubt not, ere many years, to find it preeenting happy homes to many of our countrymen.

"Flume. CONCERT FOR THE FAMILY OP THE LATE MR. Roosist—This concert takes place in the Hanover Booms this evening, which is the tenth anniversary of the produc tion of his popular opera of " Amilie," We aincetely hope it will acoomplith its benevolent purpose, of affording sub stantial benefit to the widow and seven young children of a man of genius and respectable character, left by his un timely death totally unprovided for. The concert, more over, will he a musical treat of no ordinary kind ; the first part consisting of miscellaneous vocal and instrumental pieces, and the second part a selection from the opera of Amilie." The performance is to be conducted by Sir Henry Bishop and Mr. Balfc ; and a number of eminent vocal and instrumental performer, including Miss Dolby, tke Misses Williams, Miss Poole, Miss Isaacs, Mr. Wilson, Mr. Hobbs, Mr. Machin, Mr. Leffler, Mr. Blagrove, Mr. .1. B. Chatterton, and Mr. Sterndale Bennett, are to contri bute their serriore. Irbt akama. LYCEUM.—An agreeable accession to the stage is at all times welcome, and especially so in the person of the eon or daughter of an established histrionic favourite. A most cordial reception, moor:Jingly, was given here last night to Miss Kathleen Fitswilliam, who, after attaining considerable popularity in the provinces, made her metropolitan debut in a pleasant trifle called " Peggy Green," the songs in which are the composition of Mrs. - Fitswilliam's son, the musical director of the establishment. Mho Fitswilliam's voice is a clear soprano, sweet in its tone, and of sufficient compass for her range of parts. Her features are handsome of most agreeable and telling expression, and her form is well turned. Her action and elocution have much of h er mother's mea ner without any , appearance of mere imitation, and on one or two OCCOMMIS she agreeably reminded us of Mrs. Keeley. The °meditate which served av the ve. hide for introducing her to us is of such light texture uto render any history of it needless. Suffice it to say, that in it Miss Fitswilliam is most pleasantly supported by Harley, es an enamoured ploughman ; by Mathews, as a harumecarum attorney's clerk, out on a day's jollification ; and by Granby, as a sentimental grocer, in march of some rustic innocent who shall love him for himself alone. Haim' is, we understand, one of Him Fiturilliam'e provin cial successes we are disposed to believe provincial criti cism herein most accurate, and should like, at no distant date, to be con fi rmed in t his o p inion b y auricular proof The scene of the comedletta is exceedingly pretty.
