The Bowers were not, perhaps, in quite suc► atemdence se on the previous =anion, but, in quality, it seemed as if the redoes species had progressed with the ad remount of the rases.

In this way much crushing and lomealtieraboat would be wedded, end the plants would be eassfeede eepplied with the fresh ea the want of which assns them es to droop and cast their leaves within doors. The compamy yesterday was neassnes and fashionable, the ladies tete, strongly in the majority, and the praise of the exhibition was very general. Of the show heel! there is little io be said in the way of novelty. The roar, as mush arrested the attention of the visitor at the entrance, both by their Wow and their human ; and the immense plateau el grerahoese plants in the traneept was surrounded by crowds of admirers. Them latter were zatigoigeent. Amoegst the orchids there was considerable evidence of megrim Mace the last show, and • singular locking ceder at the end of the nave (Cathie Ander seed) formed • oeset•at attraction for the curious. Where all was good Antics mesa appear to be almost invidious, bet there was such a graml verdict in favour of the size, sham, and colour of six pets of fancy pelargoniums, exhibited by Yr. Turner, oldie Royal Nanny, that it would be iwFoo• sills to pans them ever to Meer. The geraniums generally were magnificently repremeted, but this puticular lot was preasenced to be cram i k erinw. There were also sows heehaw of extracidlaary stature sad variety of colour, sad of the calosolaria family one or two pots were of considerable beauty, beteg, In fact, the only novelty shies the May show, la fruit, se might have been cap...tad, the gradual advance• mat of the demos broughtjacressed abundance and collider. able hepreeessent is qesitty.

J. Pope Hennessey, M.P., Mr. Bowyer ' M.P., Mr. 11.Cann, M.P., Mr. i i . W. Wilberforce brother to the Bishop of Oxford, Archdeacon Manning, aid a large body of the Romer catholic clergy. The CHAllleAti, in opening the proceedings, said that In pie times Boman catholic. had had to struggle for their po litical tights, but now they were claiming in a spirit of charity a religious right, namely, that inmates of workhouses sad criminals who belonged to the Roman esthete church should enjoy the benefit of free spiritual intercourse with their own clergy. He trusted that whatever they might re solve upon that day they would not make say &Hulloes to any government or political party, for they had associated wiih them in their cause men of every shade of politics. Lord STAPP/kb moved the Brat resolution That by the CODPI itution of this country, and in particular by the aces of the legiel ,tare in regard to each of her Majeety'a subjects es are not of the esta'Aished church, it is recognised ea a high and sacred principle that full and perfect liberty, both in religion and elucation, should be enjoyed by the people of these rearm" Ilia lordahip said be was not acqsaiated with any details, bat he should always be glad to give the PAM hie most hearty support. Lieut.-Colonel VAVOHAN seconded the resolution, which was unanimously adopted. Lord Hewitt:a moved the next resolution, which aflrmed that, notwithstanding this groat and unonestionaLle pried ' re, great numbers of her Majesty's catholic .übjeen, inmates of proms and workhouses, were at the present moment de rived of the fall and free exercise of their religion. Mr. Riur, in seconding the repletion, said that the Poor Law Azasudment Act was (not carried out in the spirit la which the legislature intended it should be. He showed, by a Tenon of siatiaties, that children and adedta in workhouse were systematically deprived of the ministratious of their clergy, and that extraordinary means were taken by work bowie and prison officials to keep the Roman catholic clergy without their walla. ii;it...:YrTiiiLLts, Diebop of Edinburgh, supported the =Aloe ' and after some observations from the Rev. W. I{sLiv, of Poplar, it was =Mad without a diessatient votes. Mr. R. Berkeley, Mr. R. W. Wilberforce. the Rev. Comm Oakeloy, Mr. Mansell, M.P., and Mr. Kaiaks, M.P., saccesively addressed the seeetiag, sad it was resolvtd that her Mejeety's government should be appeeled to, in order that they might tale the neeemary measures for /*coins full freedom in religion end education, by s more equal ad nealstietion of the mantles, or by such farther enactments is might be required. A vote of thanks to the chairman closed the proceedings. NATIONAL &INLAY MAGUS. On Tuesday a deputation from this body waited upon the Menials of Salisbury, the Lord-President of the Conseil, at the Privy Council-close, Downing-street, to request his lordship to exercise his influence toward& the opening of the South Kensington Museum on Sunday after noon. The deputation included • large number of gentia ..,vars:tyamiz.: Joseph D l L :o ftarlow, CS Sal John =l. (Un r. T. F. Oihant, CorMrteg e), rVotrmin Yrofeesor Henley, Dr. Bogy, Mr. H. J. Sleek, Sir ,John Trelawny, Sir Joshua - Walaterler, Sir Thsr Wilkinson, Dr. Bailey, Mr. W. Loader, Yea. Emmy, Mr. Morrell, &c. Sir Joanna WALitst.sr, is introducing the deputatton, raid that Moat twelve =tabs ago he end others appeared be. flue his lordship es the representatives of the working dams la their dean to obtain the boon they sow required. At that time, as now, the object was to Impress upon thegovera meet the fact that the opening of museums and picture gal leries on Sunday afternoon would not only benefit the work. In; men themselves, but would greatly tend to the moral and social advantage of their families. Since that period they had heard no objection raised to the principle, except ow, which appeared to him of a most frivolous nature, se it was board upon the argument that the result would lead to Me employment of • larger number of platoons on Sunday Men at present. Hs (Sir J. Maintain) was quite parmadel Mat, If his lordship had an opportunity of testing the fact, he would soon discover that those gentlemen who now appeared before him would in such ease be the last to advocate the principle they were now contending for. They were too deeply impressed with the conviction of the tolveintaae that would scene to the working classes from a day of rest, to join to any movement which might lead to any employment befog imposed upon them on the Sabbath. Although the deputation which hia lordship resolved sans twelve =ear ago coruristed chiefly of working ass, he hogged It to be observed that at thug moment then wen gestlemm meant who were distlnguished la literature, Wean sad and he trusted that the giveramaat would pay seri 1111111 d to their influence as to be iodated to spa the Smith Eanslagton Museum on Sunday shames. Mr. LOADIN then read in adds hem the League in favour of the opening d the Mass , Mr. Mouttect mad a asenortal aettlag forth a number of reasons In supports( the object sought to be enabled. Dr. BAILEY. u a /114131i6 et tie Skied body, sods • few observations on the question , so it wee suppose d to stint religious considerations ; and be was tally ocerinoed, from his own experience, that the public at large would be greatly beasfited by the opening of picture galleries and publiti insti tution. on Sunday. Some short time ago he resided is Dres den foes period of twelve menthe, end during that period he waa • does observer of the habits end charecteristio" of the 'rocking claws. lie was particularly struck with their ex emplary demeanour on Sunday', end he noticed that in the morning their practice wee to go to church, and in the after noon to the gdlerise of art, whilst in the evening they would enjoy their peaceful walks. The result was that be cams to the cmclusion that Dresden was in • much higher state of order and cultivation then say city be could mention in this country. Sometimes objections were raised by those who were opposed to the priecdple they were contending for, os the ground that in Roman catholic countries the same order and correct demeanour did not exist on Sun day ss were observable in this country; but thin, be urged, was not a fair argument. If any comparison wars to be raised at all it 'humid be made with protestant countries; sad it would then be discovered that much good sod no evil W malted from allowing the working damns the privilege of wishing public institutions on the Sabbath. Dr. BARLOW spoke of the state of things which existed at Copenhagen, in regard to this subject. The churches were opened lunch earlier than In this country, and the morning service was concluded at 11 o'clock, when the people were admitted to the various galleries and art iestitn thins ; and in the afternoon, at 2 o'clock, it was their practice to attend divine service again. The result was that the churches were frond to be lunch better tilled than when the working classes were excluded from the benefits they now Yr. KENNY spoke of the debasing amusements to which the working men were now invited on Sunday., because ft was known that there was no opportuniiy for them to find relaxation of a more elevating sad instructive character. Dr. CARPENTER, on behalf of the acientitic grad, urged upon his lordithip the fact that the conduct of the working people in the gardens at Kew on Sundry afternoon was mart exemlary. Th p e Marquis of SALISBURY, in roily, sale the subject was one of gnat importance; bat at themes time many con flicting opinions were entertained concerning it. For him self, be should direr no opinion ; but would take the addresses ha had received into his serious cataideratios. (laterally speakieg, he could mate that his earnest wish was to afford every posable facility to the public, more especially to the working elan's, for diverting them from public-houses and leading this to more healthful and Instructive places. He could say no more. There had been deputations to the government, with very strong convictions, on the other side of the queerket ; and he wad hardly say that the pnijadices on all aides ought to be respected Wore the government could arrive at any conclusion on the subject. Mr. LOA DEN sold, in the meantime, he presumed, the pre sent deputation might infer that his lordship held out some hope to theme The Marquis of SALISBURY replioi that he neither hold out hope nor the raves.., all he could say was, that he would give th e subject his bea t earliest consideration.

As we stated yesterday the triennial conference of this society commenced its sittings on Tuesday morning, at eleven o'clock, at Freemasons'-hall. There was a large attendance of member*. Among the gentlemen present were Mr. Adam Black, M.P., Mr. Titus Bait, M.P., Mr. Frank Crossley, M.P., and Mr. J. likaeseeld, M.P. Mr. B. BAINES, M.P., was the chairman at the But Mt ting. In opening the proceedings he expressed his convic tion of the truth of the fundamental principle on which title society is based, namely, that the Divine Founder of our religion ordained his church to be aelf-governed and self sustained, and did not intend that it should ever be made subject to the support of compulsory taxation or to the con trol of the civil authorides. What they claimed for them selves and for all churches fa perfect liberty; end they claimed that liberty for liberty's own asks end because they believed it to be a Christian duty to maintain liberty as the noblest and beat of ell things. civil and spiritual. Bet they claimed it not only for liberty's sake but for the sake of truth, and for the sake of purity, because they did not believe that where liberty does not exist there is fair play for truth. If, said the bon. gentleman, the attitude which we are emu. gelled to mamma in this country, u nonconformist', is some times of an aggressive nature, yet in reality, and in spirit, and in truth, it loot a defen sive nature; it is because we have to defend ourselves against laws and usages which have been pared and established in centuries gone by, and which invade the rights of free churches in this country; It is, therefore, not in the spirit of aggression , not for the sake aggrersion, that we ever call in question the laws of the country in which we ere placed, bat in the absolute spirit of defame, standing up for thou rights and those liberties which belong to ell countries end to all men;_ and I trot we ' shall never be deterred by any measure of odium or obloquy we may bring upon ourselves from assailing ell the sells which are inconeiatent with our principles, until we have chased *very vestige of them, evils from the statute book. After refe rri ng to church rates as fast vanishing, he concluded by declaring his unalterable attachment to the principle, of the amity and their ultimate moms. . . The Wendel smut of the executive committee was then read by Mr. CARVELL WILLI/on, the secretary. It set out with stating that, notwithstanding the occurrence of many stirring public events which might have diverted pub lic attention from the society's objects, It was the happmeas of the executive rommittes to spade only of unabated exer tion, and of almost continuous success ; and, es regards the public) at large, to exprim a belief that, during the last three years, the progress of sound ecclesiastical opinions has been Mitrthan at any previous period. The genital election of ed resulted in an increase of the political strength se gulled in 1862, but that which had just taken plea had not proved equally satisfactory. Still, they had no resent to emptiest that they had suffered any sntetanUal loss; for in several cases the defeats bad beset In the persons of those whose votes could not coeldently be relied upon while most of the victories had been at the expense of memb ers who had beta steady voters in the hostile retake. In regard to church rates, there had been week a demenstrstion as would probably may the bill of Sir John Trelawny through the Commons as triumphantly as teat year. The upholder. of the union between church and Mate had put forth but feeble efforts, and the Neat Riding bad elected Mr. Crossley, notwithatindtng that he was opposed expressly on the ground of his being friendly to the society. Three additional years of opposition to church-rates had done much to Mates their extinction. The last conference wee congratulated on the conversion of a parliamentary minority of 48 into a majority of 43 ; and now that majority had been nearly doubled. They had de feated an attempted government compromies by the largest majority they had ever obtained ; and their own bill bad been, for the first time, placed on the table of the House of Lords. Tedious as this wartwe might appear, the well wishers of this moiety had no reason to be dieentiefiod with its continuance. Every 'yeer the amount wrung from the community in the form of ohurch-ratee is diminishing. They wore training increasing numbers to assert the rights of con science by an exercise of their parochial powe r and they had to meet a growing demand for tteir pu and con tinually to afford to fresh applicants legal dyke, the value of which was gratefully acknowledged. The iefiessce of the society was thus reeking itself felt in a oosstsaly extending circle. While, therefore, parliament was urged to plunk up this root of bitterness, there would be completion for delay in the feet, that while church-rates were tenaciously de fended to rave the est.*" ment, they were vaniebing and undermined. reference the establiahment was being After a retera—_ to the partial success of the movement tor abolition of eccleeletical teats at the univereitise, the levet mated that the position of nonconformists in relation to the ancient gramme scho is had been changed for the worse by the dicta= of the Lords :matinee in the Itmliseter School case. The dissolution of pa/limiest had prevented the bill for r, undying this being read a second time, and it would now call for energetic action; though, to meet reasonable objcetions, it would be prudent to modify it. The conference was congretalated on the hots that the Jews bad been admitted to Parliament, and that Ministers' Money had been abolished in Ireland. It was reasonable to expect that parliament would shortly extinguish an anal-goos exaction—the annuity to—a for the abolition of which had been reed a second time by a majority of forty. The establishment of the new testamentary and matri monial courts bad weakened the ecclesiastical marts, and the committee had been auceessful in obtaining Important modifications of the banal laws, which, however, most he still further improved. The occurreoas of the Indian mutiny had elicited, to a remarkable degree, the leniency of modern opinion In favour of the principles of the society; but the Indian government would require to be closely watched. The colonies wore referred to as showing that God has not given to man a religious system dependent fur its &Maslen on the patronage of governments. The committee, thus. fore, had been making fresh efforts to interest an inctrused number of individuals in the society's operation', and with such sweeps that the tremors'', account showed the Income to be larger by m re then 6001. that at any former period. The report concluded wi.h the expression of • conviction that fifteen yeses of patient toil had received an ample reward, and the meanie could accept with fresh srdour the onerous responsibilities which would yet red upon them. The financial statements showed the receipts to be 3,2211. 16e. 3d. Dr. PEARCE, of Northampton, moved :--" net the con ference, in re cei ving and adopting the report of the executive committee, views with unqualified satisfaction the continuous growth of the society's influence during the fifteen years which have elapsed lance ite formation. That it entertains the confident expectation that the steady advance of public opinion in favour of the society's objects, and the facility and RONEY with which its operations have been conducted, will not only cell forth the continued exertion of those who have hitherto been its esrsest supporters, but will secure the co operation of an Increasing number of the friends of voluntaryism." He believed the prospect. of the Liberation Society were brighter than they had ever been before. For seven years he had bold aloof from the society, having doubts . upo t n ,ers the ; p b ro ut p w r sly of o h f e en b Llziel t a ho, tive ough acti i r cn ic i t win ect d eiaa of ti t ca he l Wt.of inch action, be felt it to be his duty to ive the teat support in hie power and to pay his sub. for the seven yeses he had beim is *mar. (Cheers.) Chairmen and the other members of parliament pre sent having bee obliged to leave at this stage of the pro cestiege, Mr. E. °Mowed., of Ipswich, took the chair. The Rev. A. ReeD, in secondiog the resolution, said be certainly looked forward with hose and encouragement upon the primer they had made. (Rear.) The Rev. Mr. Rostrum?' of Cambridge , proposed as an addendum to the readatioa iha following porde :—.• At the mime time this conference would entrees en worst hope that the executive committee will find it praetioable to bring the great question of church and state Wore the Ise/Is tan at en early day." He th-ught the attention of the com mittee bad of lets hem directed too much to queetloua of de tail. and had not sufficieetly asserted its fundamental prin ciple. The Rev. JAMIE Iteasrxt, of Kettering, seconded the adeendani. Kr. Hiatt opposed the *Meg the words suggested to the resolution. The qsestion had been brought before the legislature in a concrete shape every time a bill had been brought forward for the abolition of church rates, and every time the question of state and church in the various relations they sustain to each other had been diecuceed. Under them circometances it did seem to him very important that we should continue in that course which had Where, proved a successful one. Dr. Ronson, of Glasgow, spoke egainet the addendum. Dr. PORTER believed that the adoption of this addition to the resolution would have the practical effect of throwing the whole question, considered irs relation to parliamentary hectic., three or four year. back. The Rev. T. H. MORGAN, of Birmingham, directed the attention of the coofereore to the difference between the Oxford and Cambridge middle-class examinations, the latter of which he considered by no means so liberal as the former. The resolution was then pat and carried unanimously. Mr. APSLIT Pattin moved the following resolution:— "That the carrying of the Church-rule Abolition Bill through the Hoses of Commons, with the decisive defeat of an objection .b'. compromise, end the sub...quest emend reeding of Sir John Tralamef • Bill by an undiminished ma jority, ere facts which am regarded by this coeferssee es in dicative of the skoroathing termination of a beg and arduous s•ruggle. 71st, at the same time, the members of the conference pledge themselves to unabated activity, both in parliament and the periebee. to put em sad to the el ection, sad authorise the escudos committee to adopt such ulterior measures Ns may be called for by a coathased re sistance of the Peers to the wishes of tie pimple, se mud' tutionally expreseed through their roprestatelives."

(Cheers.) The resolution wu then passed. Aldermen HARRISON, of Wakefield, moved That the cooferenoe highly approves of the steps taken by the com mittee at the two general elections which have occurred since the last conference. That It urges the importance of con tinued effort to ONSeis• the number of representatives pledged to en the society's parliamentary policy ; and more es y it anticipates the increased responsibility which well devolve on the friends of religions equality, when, by en extension of the franchise, political power will be given to large numbers, who, it is believed, will be prepared to employ it in furtherance of the society's objects. , The motion was seconded by Mr. JII.IIIIAK COLNAN, of Norwich, A &emission ensued as to the wording of this resolution, which was carried in en amended form. The Rev. HENRY RICHARD moved:" That this con ference records its concurrence in the views of the executive committee expressed in their minute of the 18th November, 1857. in respect to the future relation of the government of India to the religions of the people of that country. That, while impeding with great gratification the general preva lence of similar sentiments, the conference feels it to be need fill to watch with vigilance the course of the Indian adminis tration, that there may be no adherents to a policy which has worked injurioualy in India, and been decisively condemned by the people of this country." He felt there were two errors which the government of this country had committed in connexion with India. The first was the fact of its taking under its patronage and pay the impure religion of India, placing its own officent, professedly Christian men in positions which obliged them to administer the ;Airs oft he Hinton and blattommedan temples ; and the second error mom from the government having acquired (be would not stay to inquire In what way) possessions in India, seized upon the ecclesiastical endowments of the Hindoo and bishommedan temples, and appropriated them to its own purposes, awarding a certain sum annually to the swam of the native worship, by way of compensation. He maintained we had no right, having mud that property, to withdraw the compensaUon, unties we restored the ori ginal endowments. The Rev. H. Emote seconded the resolution, which was carried, and the Conference adjourned for dinner. The evening sitting commenced at six o'clock, Mr. Dun can bliLaren, the Lord Fromm of Edinburgh, in the chair. The CHAIRMAN, in referring to the two prominent Scot fish queetions in connexion with this movement—the annuity tax, and the parochial schools—expressed him conviction that both of them were deserving of she highest attention from the friends of religious freedom. He concluded by adverting to the hold which the people of Scotland preserved upon the sympithies of the liberal party, inasmuch as nearly two- Mir& of the members returned to Parliament by that part of Great Britain were avowedly liberal in politics. Dr. FOSTER, of Lambe, then read a paper upon the Dis senters and the Endowed Grammar Schools, in which he set forth the several disabilities under which dissenters laboured in connexion with these Institutions. . . — ir774l;a;;;;;J7•;iii;iii7lerislature having opened the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge to all classes of her Majesty's subjects, without distinction on the point of their religious belief, it is now time, in the judgment of this oteterence, to carry further the principle thug recognised by Mit to ndpw ed this stepand i t i te lre r mar le of tmd Wales. E' That tiv " :7indlosi for by the recent decision of the Court of Chan cery is the ore of the Ilminater Grammar-school; in which it hr been laid down in conformity, as it is believed, with existing law, that the requirement in the foundation deed of any school that the mestere shall be • honest and discreet' men, sad shall teach 'godly learning,' necesearily excludes dissenters from all share In the government or teaching thereof. That the conference is gratified that the executive committee has already prepared and introduced bills into the House of Commons for altering this state of the law ; and while prepared to recommend any concession required by a liberal construction of the justice of the case, it is not dis posed to deprecate the threatened opposition of the esta blshed clergy by abandoning in any degree the claim of all her Majesty's subjects to share equally in the government and teaching of schools, now confined to the church of Rag land only, by the present doctrines of law." He believed that the judges of the law rude had interpreted the law of England according to the principles upon which they could alone 'atomiser it whilst there remained anestablished church. (Hear, her.) Even toleration was inconsistent with the principles of an established church ; it was only unsaying by one law what wee established by another. Under the ohmmeters, they were making a most deadly thrust upon the principle of as establishment by standing forth and so- Ins that in regard to school,, the endowments of which might be said to have pared into a ettie wherein they be came national property, they were as much the properly of dissenters r of churchmen. They desired to get the principle thoroughly recognised by law, so as ti command the rent of all reasonable user, that it woe not necessary even in the eye of the law that an honest man should be a member of the establishment. The Rev. 8. MANNINO, in seconding the motion, gave ea secount of the proceedings of the commissioners in regard to the Promo chartists, and wee followed by the Rev. E. Dell, et Coventry, who entered into similar pa:Wakes with re gard to the dieroaling charities in that city. The purport of both thane amounts was to show the prejudice existing against diesentieg endowment., and the admission of die eenthw trustees to endowments of a general character, and the positive *natioe under which dissenters laboured in slr. COLMAN of Norwich, said he and other dissenters had been placed on the trust of one of Edward Vl.'s grammar taboo* but that this was owing to the influence of popular feeling, and was in defiance of the law of the came. The Rev. S. ROBINSON of Cambridge, stated the injus tice of excluding diameter; from the enjoyment of fellowships In that university, and suggested that • clause should be bl eated in the resolution setting forth the propriety of extend ing the principle to three fellowships. As a followahip in • university was not an office, dissenters were not excluded firo; t ila law ; whether they obtained their right or not di in the present cane upon the university commis stoners, on the one head, and the authorities of the univer sity an the other, end it wee very doubtful whether, between the two, the right would be withheld. The ROT. Mr. MATHESON, of Nottingham, having spoken to tb• resolution, it was put from the chair and cereied una- nlinonaly. Dr. ROBSON, of Glsegow, moved the next resolution:— " That the existing teats—by which the masters of the paro chial schools in Scotland are bound to subscribe s declaration of their adherence to the established chnra of that country, and of their willingness to Le subject to the decisions of its clergy and church courte—are • violation of the principles of religious liberty, and ought to be abolished." Mr. DiLLwva, M.P., said he had that evening moved the Srst reading of the Bill for the Abolition of Roclesiastical Tests in the Ancient Grammar Schools, in his place in the Rouse of Commune, which would be brought in on the fol lowing day, and would be unopposed on the first rending. The resolution having been seconded, was then nasal- ' measly passed. The Rev. EDWARD PRICE moved "that the conference congratulates the friends of voluntaryism in Scotland on the ' second reading, by a decdaire majority, of a bill for the aboli tion of the annuity tsz. in Edinburgh and Montrose and smicipates that persistent action in tie suiport will slimily lead to the extinction of the impost." Dr. Roesote said that Unanimity tax was a most obnoxious one, end was met offensive in its operation. The resolution having been eeonnded, was carried nem. die. The Rev. ALEXANDER. Elsa moved "that the confe rence, believing that the Begium &num is a grant bad in principle and operates most mischievously, is glad that it is determined to offer to It such opposition as will be likely to hasten its abolition." GEORGE CAVENDISH, Rel., Mayor of Sunderland, seconded the resolution. The Rev. Mr. BARRETT, of Croydon. drew attention to the state of religious liberty in the West Indian colonies. The resolution wee then passed, and the meeting adjourned till - . . meat day. The thied sitting took plea) yesterday morning, J. R. Ttitirr, Rag., prodeing.

The muted meeting of the members of the General Amchitka for the Australian Colonies was held on Tues day, at their caress, in 'Cuange-alley ; Mr. E. Sexeumes, the deputy chairman, presided. A report wee read by Mr. Vote, the honorary secretary, in which the committee congratulated the members upon having arranged for the use of the convenient rooms in which the association assembled, and expreesed • hope that their inertias in this respect would meet with • generous support. They then proceed to &tete that—" In the month of °ember • umber of ggeantlemen met by public advertise ment to form an A Society, not being aware that one already existed ; end upon lateens of the fact, they ex premed • desire to join our amociation, and • request was subsequently made by the chairman of the meeting that members might be admitted at • reduced subecaption of one guinea for the unexpired hail-year, which privation was sanctionedby the committee, subject to the approval of a general meeting. The committee have stemmed with much satisfaction the termination of the late contract fur carrying our make which, hem its comenenoe meat to its elope, was one series of failures and disappoint meets, causing in some instances extensive losses to the meresetUe community. Your committee hope that the pre treat coatrectors, with their great experience sad large mem may emceed in establishing • regular and reliable mail esnicen the advantages of which In every point of view to all connected with the Australian colonies can hardly be bee highly estimated. The committee were very much pressed by gentlemen of influence connected with New South Wales and New Zealand to advocate with the imperial government ma additional steam t glOtal service to those colonies ' via Panama ;' but, after moat careful consideratkm, the com mittee became convinced that, even if such • line should prove advantageous to New South Wales and New Zealand (which they very much doubt), it would not be of the slightest benefit sea postal line either to Victoria, Tasmania, or South Australia ; and conceiving it to be the duty of the 11410Cttl.i011 to recommend only those mamma that are manifestly beneficial to the Andreas colonies gene- rally, they decided that they were not called upon to advocate the routs proposed. The committee in dulge the hope that the contract since entered inter by the Peninsular and Oriental Company, by which they are to deliver the mails in Sydney . in forty-eight days via Marseilles, and fifty-fire day. via Southampton, will prove eatiefactory to the colonists of New South Wales and New Zealand. The committee, with • view of aiding in the truensission of useful animals, birds, and fishes to the Australian colonies, appointed a sub-committee of members of the association for the purpose of raising subscriptions, and to conduct the general management of such a desirable ob ject. The sub-committee first directed their attention to the introduction of salmon, which from its great value seemed to claim put:edema, and a liberal offer from the directors of the Crystal Pam Company to carry out the preliminary experiments there wan accepted. From twelve to twenty thousand salmon ova were succeadully deposited In boxes with • continuous stream of filtrated water running through them, and the hatching had commenced when un fortunately it became necessary to make some &Item ions in the water-pipe which supplied the building; and the work man, not knowing or forgetting that our experiment was ee, turned off the water at three o'clock one • the consequence was that our young fish having feu left without a fresh supply for five or six hours in the tropical department, all died. The season for ob hada( note ova having passed, this failure has retarded the carry* oat of the experiments by this means until next per, although other plans are in program. The inadequate naval force in the Australian water was viewed by the com mittee for some time pant with considerable uneasiness, which was increased by the tbresteeing aspect of affairs on the continent of Europe. The subject wee ably brought under the notice of the imperial government in the House of Commons by a member of the committee, the right hon. Lord 2 , ,lfret Churchill, who en this, as on many other occa sion', has taken an &Cat , ' part in promoting the interest& of the Australian colonies. A deputation from the emaciation to the First Lord of the Admiralty has had the effect of ma terially increasing the naval force in those seas, and the mail of April hat took out a despatch by which Australia was made • commodore's station. it is to be hoped, from the large imperial and colonial interests at stake, an admiral's command will soon be conceded. The committee have bad under their consideration the great benefit that would accrue to the colonies by making the Beeman coined at the Australian mint an imperial one. Complaints are very frequent of the inconvenience and loss sta shed by individuals and tip riencei in commercial Masactions, from the fact that the Australian sovereign, though now in general circulation throughout the Australian colonies, will not be taken by any other coantry except at a discount. There appears to the committee to he no reason why the alteration should not be made, supervision end mere] of the imperial government, and that its cost he permanently defrayed by the coloniee. The weasel summing trim the PostanateaeGenera to doubts the postage of newspapers to Australia Me Southampton, has met with geoeral peewee and the committee have deemed It their duty to enumerate with the authorities on the subject. In accord ance with our rules the following gentlemen, viz.:—Messrs. W. C. Wentworth and Robert Graham, representing New South Wales; Wen. Archer and F. A. Du Ores, Tasmania; Wan. Wastgarth and Wm. Forking*, Victoria; Edward Stephens and A. L. Elder, South Australia, retire by lot from the committee, but are eligible for re-election, end Mr. Sewell and Mr. Bleckett having returned to New Zealand, their places will also require to be filled op." The Cue ranee, in moving that the report be adapted, observed that the committee had, in dealing I with the various subjects brought under their :toque during the year, endeavoured to divest themselves of all personal and local feelings, and local jealousies, end had leaked only to what was likely to be of practical utility to the Australian Monies as • group, or • whole, in order that the society might be regarded so far as a general society for the whole of those colonies. The government had recognised them in a friendly spirit, and admitted that the colonies they repre mated were be great and important congregations of people to whom even England looked for mistime. A greater compliment, as coming from the lammed government, could scarcely be paid, and it showed tbst the Australian colonies were rapidly 011itUatitlg that position with the British government, the British parliament, end the British people to which they were entitled. (Hear, hear.) It was mainly through the mocha= that these results had be= obtained. Hs was happy to say that the eppliutions the committee were constantly r. oohing se t e o . the ect in ed veet with me t e h t o i f .t. mouy t. m of u lgra co Lon . , an s d h ot ,w h ed er a t t h illi t ec it te s usefulness was appreciated as a reongnise'd body through whom such information mull be obtained, and increased in terest in the Australian colonies would be excited in this country. Mr. Cntintaa emended the motion. Mr. Parma thought the paragraph referring to the Panama route ought not to be allowed to pass without nodes. He differed from the concluska of the committee on that point, and believed that the additional line of communication would prove advantageous not only to New South Wales and New Zealand, but to all the Australian colonies, though not as regarded the postal service, but as a means of communication between the colonies and America and the West Jodie., where there was a larger Sewn population than in the United Kiagdotn. The scheme heal the approval of two of the oolooier—of three, fee he believed the new oulony of Queensland would co-operate. And seeing that the two colons he had referred to had expressed to decided a vlsw of the matter as to vote 60,0001. towards carrying out the object, he thought it meet injudicious of the association thus, es it were, to throw cull weter upon it. The association had no lona stemdi, except as representing their fellow colonies, and it would be suicidal to set themselves against what any portion of the colonies might consider conducive to their own interests. Mr. De. SALIS and other gewlemen joined in the objec tion to the puegraph pronouncing an opinion upon the Datums roam, although the general view appiered to be that that route would be comparatively outlaw ao a meant of postal communication ; and after a long diacmotion upon the wording of the paragraph, the word* objected to were struck out, leaving it a were statement, that the committee having considered the matter did not fee ail l. called upon to ad vocate the proposal; end the report, ao amended, waa adopted. The vitcancim in the committee were Hied tuk, and after • vote of thanks to the dial/MIA the meedug serrated. .
