INDIA, The Times of India says that the internal affairs of the kingdom of Burmah have long been in a very unsatisfactory state, notwithstanding the influence and exertions of the late Chief Commis- Money, Colonel Phayre. It adds : Faction strife has run high, and on several occasions the monarch of " the Golden Foot" has felt that the crown, if indeed Burnish boasts such a bauble, was rest ing very insecurely on his royal head. Strenuous mea sures were needed to keep the aspirations of the Myn goon Mcngtha within legitimate bounds. And to make matters worse for his Mandalese Majesty, he was not allowed to concentrate his whole attention on the sup preioion of theme rebellions, no matter how serious for him they might be. The customs duties levied on the export and import trade of Burmah were vehemently protested against by the merchants of Rangoon, whose cry was, as a matter of course, re-echoed from Serampore. Not that the Ran goon traders or the Friend of India felt these taxes parti culai ly forbidding, or could substantiate any just claim to interfere even if they did; they merely wished, and natu rally enough perhaps, to share in the large revenue. derived by the king from the dues levied at his custom house at Menkla, and in hit monopoly of cotton, jsggery, tea, and other articles. Their action in the matter of a recent memorial was not prompted by any anxiety for the well-being of Burnish. or by any other motive than a purely selfish one. Different, no doubt, were the objects held in view by Colonel Phayre and his sscceaor, Colonel Fytche, when they urged a snore liberal policy upon the king; and we are glad to learn that his Majesty, having found time to devote attention to these matters, has acceded to the recommendations of the chief commis sioners. AUSTRALIA. VICTORIA. The present mail brings aniCiniorial to the Queen, signed by the delegates from the six colonies repre sented at the Postal o.nference recently held in Mel bourne. By that document the six colonies become bound to provide a subsidy, not exceeding 200,000 L , towards the maintenance of the three postal lines, which have been already tested, namely, the route by Suez and Ceylon to Melbourne, the route by Panama to New Zealand, and the route by Singapore and Torres Straits to Queens land. The home government is expected to contribute a like subsidy. " The scheme (says the Age) was received with great favour in the adjoining colonies, but has been subjected to a good deal of adverse criticism in Melbourne, owing to misapprehension caused by the careless way in which the minutes of the Conference had been kept. It was at first supposed that Sydney had secured the great advantage of being the head quarters of all three lines, but this has been satis factorily disproved, and should the scheme receive the support of the home government it is certain that Melbourne will be the terminus for the Suez and Galls route, so soon as the Williamstown grav ing dock shall be completed. The Chamber of Commerce, and others interested in the shipping trade, petitioned the Legislature against the deci sion arrived at by the Conference, and an attempt was made to get up an opposition in the Assembly, but it proved a signal failure." ' The Select Committee of the begisiative Assem bly, appointed to consider the amendment of the constitution of that chamber, has recommended that the qualification both for members and elec tors should be reduced oue half. A scheme has been submitted to the committee by which elec toral districts would be abolished, and the repre sent►tion of orders substituted. This scheme would, says the Argue, in effect introduce the principle of the representation of minorities. The same paper gives the following intelligence from the gold fields _ _ Although mining stock is now somewhet out of favour with the public, in consequence of the failureof wh►t were considered at first to he promising ventures, no real diminution has taken place in the prosperity of our gold fields. From the reports which are dally forwarded from the various mining districts, it is shown that the auriferous yields, from the quartz reefs particularly, con tinue to be well maintained. A few individual yields maybe given to illustrate the value of some of our gold workings. At North Scotchinnn's Reef, Pleasant Creek, 1402 tons of stone taken from D'Arey, Spence, Williams, and Co.'s claim, yielded 1,047 oz. 11 dwt., or about 1 oz. 74 dwt. per ton, and it is reported that the quartz in the claim, of which there is plenty, appears to be quite as rich as that which has been taken out. At Chiltern, the Extended SOUS of Freedom Company obtained 993 ounces of gold in a single month, and the Hope Mining Company, M'ood'a Point, were enabled to pay as one fortnight's dividend the sum of I,olat. tie. :id. The Eagle ba wk Union Company, Maldon, got 1,20'2 ounces of gold frost. only 145 tons of stone; and in a fort night the Royal Standard Prospecting Company, Black River, obtained 34* ounces. The yields from the Ballarat mines have been as good as usual, as the following exam ples will show :—Newington, 4830z5. 4dwt. for a week ; Southern Freehold, 2030 z. 9dwt. for • week; Western Freehold, 820 oz. 18dwt. for a fortnight ; Albion, for a week ' • Sir William Don, filfioz. for a week ; Band of Hope, 600os. for a week ; Sir William Don, 5170 z. 19dwt. for a week ; St. George, 3030 z. fidwt. for a week ; Work ing Miners', 3170 z. for a week ; Albion, 3920 z. for a week ; Great Gulf, fiff.Roz. 7dwt. for a fortnight ; Prince of Wales, lkf2os. lldwt. for • fortnight. There is very little to re cord in the way of new discoveries. Mention may be made, however, of some fresh workings at Mount Pleasant, which have attracted notice chiefly on account of the discovery there of some very rich quartz reefs. Writing of the new "rush; a correapondent says:—" On reaching the Red. gate township, or rather ' Alexandra,' as it is now called, I was astonished by the number of buildings already erected, and the number of people of the respectable digger class who were to be seen hurrying to and fro, all seemingly in good spirits, and apparently doing well. The reefs of first importance are those situate about a mile south of the township. known as the Lucky Reef • very appropriately named. I there saw some of the best specimens I have ever seen, and on the whole the stone was excellent. I heard various rumours about the returns lately re ceived from the claims which have already crushed stone, but I can confidently state the following to be the approximate returns :—The first claim which had a crushing was No. 1 North, quantity about 100 tons 700 oz. ; No 2, about 100 tons, 1.900 oz. ; No. 3 h as not yet been successful in finding anything permanent but they hope soon to be sufficiently deep to ' get the reef ; No. 4 crushed about SO tons for 700 oz. The I prospecting claim is amalgamated with No. 1 South, con taining in all 320 yards on the line of reef. When this claim is properly opened out it will keep about 50 men constantly employed, as there is • splendid reef traced from the surface to about 50 feet down, and getting larger as it is developed. There are also several other lines of reef—viz., the Morning Star, Sunday Rref,and Jo sephine Reef—but they are yet in a comparatively untried state, although the owners are very sanguine of their ulti mate socceas. The alluvial diggings form one of the fore most attractions on this field. There are about 200 men who have marked out claims, and are now busily engaged getting out washing stuff." As there is now plenty of water in most of the creeks and reservoirs in the various mining districts, we shall doubtless continue to receive satisfactory accounts from the diggings. NEW SOUTH WALES. The parliament had been further prorogued to the 14th of May. It was not summoned, however, for the despatch of business, and it is said that members would not be called together again till the end of June or the beginning of July. A statement of the revenue of the colony during the quarter ending 31st March has been published. The total amount received was 455,000/. showing a decrease on the quarter of 8,339/. D uring the same period the disbursements bad exceeded the expenditure by about 50,0001. " This is not cal culated," says the Sydney Herald, "to inspire much confidence in the treasurer's estimated surplus of 319,000/. at the end of the year. It would rather seem to indicate that the object for which our pre sent fiscal system was introduced will not be fully realised. Objectionable imposts were assented to for the purpose of raising a revenue sufficient to meet our current expenses, and provide a fund to pay off a deficit of three quarters of a million. On the ad valorem duties the treasurer estimated an in crease of 13,2661. in 1867. During the first quarter they have realised only 34,0001. as against 49,0001. during the corresponding quarter of 1366." The same paper says : The result of the deliberations of the Postal Conference, referred to in our last summary, was given to the public simultaneously in all the Australian colonies on the 2sth March. From the detailed account in another part of the paper it will be seen that it is proposed to maintain com munication with Europe as at present, by Suez, Torres Straits, and Panama, at an expense of about 400,0001. ; the cost is now 50,0001. or GO,OOOI. leu than the amount estimated by the conference, but it falls upon the colonies in very unequal proportions. Queensland bears the expense of the Torres Straits route ; New South Wales and New Zealand pay for the Panama route, and these three colonies also share in the expenses of the Sues route. Victoria, therefore, does not pay anything like a fair share. It will he seen, however, that the plan agreed to by the con ference will materially alter the incidence of the burden. The home government is to be asked to contribute half, in consideration of British trade and British capital invested in the colonies, and the other half is to be laid in the pro portions specified. Unless the various ecionial legislatures support the action of those who represented the colonies in the conference, the scheme will of course fall to the ground. The subject has raised an angry discussion in the Assembly at Melbourne, and it seems doubtful whether Victoria will co-operate in this important work. If it should not, it will then become • question whether the other colonies will combine fur a desirable object, or pur sue their former isolated courses. The debate has been postponed until after the Easter holidays. and its determination will afford some indication of the practica bility of the suggestion of a federal council of the Austra lien colonies, to which from time to time might he referred matters of common interest. Unfortunately there exists between some of this colonies an antagonism 'jollier to that which frequently forms a barrier between men of the same profession. This may be fatal to the postal scheme, and prevent the realisation of many benefits which might be obtained by the combination of all to secure a mutual advantage. THE MEDITERRANEAN. (FROM OUR OWN CORRIMPONDICNT.) MALTA, JUNE 10. The greater part of the vessels composing the English Mediterranean fleet, under the command of Vice- Aslmiml Lord Clarence Paget, are still absent from Malta, and just now we have in port only the two iron-clad fri gates Prince Consort, 35, and Royal Oak, :Li, and the re ceiving ship Hibernia, bearing the flag of Rear-Admiral Henry Kellett, C. 8., superintendent of her Majesty's dockyard. There is also in port an Egyptian corvette, which bad come here a few days ago from Candia, for the purpose of undergoing sonic repairs. Several English men.of-war arc expected here in the course of the present week. The Terrible having left Eng land on the 27 , h ult., is looked for daily ; and the two gunboats, Tyrian and Trinculo, are expected about the end of the week, the former from 0111111 a, having been relieved by the Wizanl, and the latter from Gibr►ltar. The Royal Oak, having completed her repairs, has re. ceived orders to be in readiness to put to sea, and she will very probably be one of the vessels which are toeecort his Majesty the Sultan to Toulon, on the occasion of his visit to Paris. Major-General Ridley, commanding the first brigade in this garrison, leaves Malta to-day for England, on leave of absence. CRYSTAL PALACE.—At this afternoon's Opera Concert, Mdlle.

THE SUPPLY OF COAL TO LONDON. —The quan tity of coal carried to London by sea and rail for the month of May shown a remarkable falling off as compared with April. The entire tonnage for April was T 0460131 tons. and for May 431.530 tons, making a difference of no leas than 94,531 tons. The seaborne coal fell off from 274.272 tons in April to 214,38 D tons for the la‘t month, and that sent by lend carriage from 271,789 tons to 237,250 tons. The falling off has been most marked with regard to Derbyshire, Clay Cross alone on the average sending nearly one-fifth of all the coal carried by railway. As the result, at several of the large colleriee there short time is now the role, and the same may be said with regard to the " Silkstones." a favourite house coal in the metro. polio, and which sells for nearly as much as the beet Wallsends. The difference in the tonnage is most felt by the London and North-Western Railway, which carried lea by 23,093 tons in Kay than it did in April. *parting intelligence.

UNITED LAW CLERKS'SWIETY.—The thirty-fifth annual dinner in connection with this society was held last evening at the Freemasons' Tavern, Vice-Chancellor Malin, in the chair. The festival was distinguished by its usually admirable management, and by its more than usual success. There were over 300 guests, including represen tatives of every grade of, and position in, the legal profes sion. The dinnor was served in the new hap recently added to the old building by the proprietors of the tavern ; and the gallery was occupied by ladies. The singers were Mr. Chaplin Henry, Mr. G. l'erren, Mr. Young, Miss R. Henderson, Madame Rudersdorff, Miss Palmer, with Mr. S. Naylor at the pianoforte, and Mr. K Gray as Oondoeter. Thu 'United Law Clerks' Society is both a provident and a benevolent society, as it enables its members by small monthly contributions to make some pecuniary provision for themselves in illness, old age, lows of sight, °Farther permanent affliction, and for their families un their de cease, and also affords similar help to all law clerks and their widows when in temporary distress, not the result of their own misconduct. Clerks of every branch of the pro tension, resident within twelve miles of the metropolis, are eligible for membership, and the operations of the benevo- lent fund extend all over England. Out of 763 members 41 have during the past year claimed and received assist ance from the funds on account of illness. The relief afforded amounted to 379/. Is. Each of these members re ceived 1/. Is. a week so long as his affliction disabled him from following his employment. The total sem ex pended on this account now amounts to 7,078!. Ks, In meeting recent death claims and some payments on ac count of prior ones 50.1 L has been spent, which has in creased the disbursements on account of death alone to 11,497/. 10s. The payments in sickness and the allow ances on death have all been paid out of current income. The principal or general fund amounted on the 2nd day of April, 1866, to 34,996/. 7s. 3d. During the year there has been received, including an arrear of interest, 4,6761. Is. 10d.

Os. lid. The preliminary toasts were given by the chairman, Mr. Marten, of the Chancery Bar, responding for the volun teers. In giving " Prosperity to the United Clerks' Society," the chairman referred to the above-given facts as proofs that its objects were deserving, and that its funds should be supported. Ilia honour also gave a history of the society, tracing its origin from the days when a few managing clerks met at Islington and formed what had since become so extensive a society, and he niost feelingly paid a tribute to the good qualities of the law clerks, to whom the legal pretension was so much indebted. Other toasts were given, and subeequent speakers followed the chairman's example in appealing for funds. LI ItERAL CHRISTIAN UNION. Yesterday, in reopens, to an invitation by circular and advertisement, a select company of ladies and gentlemen met at University hall. Gorilon.aquare, to consider the means of forming a closer union among liberal Christian churches and per sons, for the promotion and application of religion in life apart from doctrinal limitations iu thought. Mr. W. Strickland Cookson presided, and amongst those present were Rev. James Martineau, Rev. J. J. Tayler, Rev. W. H. Cha i ning, Rev. W. Kirkus, LL.B., sir John Bowring, Mr. Herbert New, Ac. The Rev. J. Martineau explained the object of the meeting, stating that a rallying point was needed for those who believed that the characterieeje of the present age was a desire after the religious life rather than after intellectual agreement upon mat ters of doctrine. He closed by moving the fol lowing resolution " That whereas the Christian religion in its essential influence is not contingent upon right opinion on matters of history, criticism, or metaphysics, and in its application to life has become encumbered with a load of superfluous °mutinous, it is in cumbent on those who find its essence in the two great affections of love to God and love to man to unite their scattered forces both for closer communion in work and worship and for resisting every intrusive interference with the intellectandconscience of men." The resolution having been seconded by Mr. Herbert New, was discussed at great length, Rev. W. Kirkus, Rev. W. 11. Chauning, Sir John Bowing. and Rev. H. Solly, taking part in the discussion. Upon being put to the vote the resolution was carried with two dissenttents. A special committee and a consultative committee were then appointed, Mr. Edward Enfield being the secretary of the first, and Her. I'. W. Claydea of the second.

After some evidence confirmatory of that given yesterday had been given Joseph Wilson, saw manufacturer, said : Some years ago he worked at the Tower Wheel, and employed at that time Dennis Clarke, George Gartit, George Shaw, and Matthew Woollen. Wh en th ese men jo i ne d the; union, be employed HellewelL All had been appo en ticed to Lindley, except Woollen, who was Feansebough's apprentice. After the first four named left they did • jobs" about the wheel yard. They bad access to liellewell's place, except at night, when the door was locked. and the key left in the " time " house. Had seen these men about while • Hellewell worked, and they behaved very badly to him. Had heard Shaw ask Hellewell if he intended working for witness, and on Hellewell saying " Yes," he was told he would get his head knocked off." Some few slays after this (about October, 1859) Helewell's wife came to him, and from what she said he went down to the wheel. He found " Putty " Shaw there. Shaw bad a little bundle under his arm, and wale dreamed in his Sunday clothes. Witness accused Shaw of having committed the outrage, but Skew denied it, saying he was out of town on Saturday. Tuffs was on the Monday. Witness afterwards went upstairs and found the glazier blown up and other things scattered about. While there, the timekeeper came and said, " If you will come to Jimmy's bull I will show you how it is done." " Putty " Shaw went with them. When the time-keeper was explaining how an entrance had been effected into the place, Shaw put his fist in hie face and threatened to knock him over, asking, "what he had to do with it." He afterwards went to Hellewell's house, but Hellewell was out ; he went to him, and Hellewell said " You see they have found me," and then witness had a colleen...ion with him as to what he was going to do. It was Shaw, and not Clarke, who threatened the time-keeper. Sonic six months atter this (24th of November), at six in the morning, he heard a lot of old pots and pans which be had put in his cellar grate (to give an alarm if the grate was moved) fall down, and on looking out of time window he saw some one run ning away, but he did not know who it was. He was a young man about the size of witness, and bad a dark coat and eap on. He was about lift. tan. or 7in. high. He then went and made the cellar grate fast, A week after that he forgot to fasten the cellar grate under where three of his children slept. About six o'clock in the morning be heard the children getting up, and going to see what was the matter his children met him and told him there had been a cm of gunpowder thrown in, and they had been blown out of bed. He got up and went down, and tried to go into the room between the cellar and where his children I lay, but lie could not open the door. He therefore went I into the street, when there were several ',resole round the grate, and while there they saw in the cellar a light. Some of the people were fearful, but he went down the I grate and found it was a rag burning which had been I attached to a can of gunpowder. The can held about three pinta. It was blown open. There was also Ia piece of clothes-line whisk appeared to have been tied round the can. The cellar flooring was blown up, the furniture in the room above was broken, and ninny parts of the walls in the room where his children slept were clacked. After seeing that all danger was over, he went to Mr. Jackson, chief constable. It was not found out who Lad committed the outrage, but Mr. Smith, a neighbour, had male the can, and Mr. Jlrmly, of Baker's-hill, sold the rope. his suspected at that time " Putty" Shaw and Dennis Clarke—Shaw from being a Trey bed character and Clarks from his telling one of him apprentices (Hall) that "he would bear of s nothing-" Hall told him that before his death. He had charged Clarke with the offence, and when it was committed went with a detective to his house, but did not find any Clarke threatened to make him pa) for coming to search his house, but lie had never done so. He had also charged Shaw with doing it, but the latter told him he bad better hold his noise. Shaw had since applied to witness for work, but he never would employ hint. Witness had received about a dozen threatening letters, but all were lost except the first and last (produced). They were of the usual style, warn ing witness if he did not employ union men his days were numbered. Itlnes#ll was a goad and I hardworking man. At the suggestion of Mr. Dionfield, who appeared for Mr. Sugg, the witness said the own plaint of the union against him was not because I.e em ployed too great a number of apprentices. He had five ap prentices, but they were saw nation., not saw grinders— that was against the rules of the uhion. By the union rules he ought only to have one ap prentice to every four men. lie hail about threw men, so that lie had more apprentices than jour neymen. The union sever complained to him about his apprentices. He offended the union by em ploying Hellewell. They (Clarke and others) wanted witness to turn Hellewell off. It was when he was seeking Hellewell he got the first letter. None of the masters and fathers of his apprentices then made com plaints of his anisoonduct. A few months ago a man named Fesinthough complained he did toot teach his son his trade. He was summoned before the magistrates and paid the costa. The lad went back to him, and he was advised by Mr. Ferrell to break his indentures, but lie would not do so. He was summoned again before the magistrutca, and this time the indentures were broken.
