THE EXPRESS, SATURDAY EVENING, APRIL 2, 1859. NEW SOUTH WALES. (Mail OVII OWN 0011.111S/PoirDiurr.) SYDNEY, Fs“ I The wseertaisty of the arrival of the mail ships to Aistrelia wens to be as great as ever. The Oneida, with the adviossofNov.9 from Eagland,did not reach Sydney till the 23rd ult., a fortnight after her time. A new contract having been entered into, we are in' hopes of an improved systems being adopted. Business of all kinds in Sydney remains so dull that the citizens bad ample time to be present at • wicket match, played by the Sydney and Melbourne slabs the week before last. The affair excited so emelt interest that the parliament suspended its sit ting., sad the basks closed their doors during the three day. of the contest. The Sydney eleven went is first, and scored 140 in two innings; and the Melbournians were the victors, having scored 141 in one inning., with two wickets to go down. The electric telegraph was in constant work to WIMP y intelligence to Melbourne of the progress of the game, and many thousands of pounds changed hands as the result. The filet anniversary of the foundation of the colony was celebrated on the 26th with the cus tomary general holiday. A rojel salute was fired tram Fort Macquarie. The session of the Colonial l'arliament now in pro 'nes may be deemed as belonging to the year 1363, eft which it was an adjournment for the special pu pae of voting the estimates for the public service he the current year; but although that business has eseupied the House of Assembly, various other topics here been introduced, characterised by much useless hqueity, , and the main business is yet unfinished. Hitherto the clergy of the Church ot England and several other religious denominations have derived the chief portion of their salaries from the public purse; but on the sum of 11,000!. being proposed as a supplementary estimate for that purpose it was refused, which decision was confirmed by two sub sequent divisions of the house. This is but a step towards the entire withdrawal of State aid for reli gious purpose's, and the voluntary system will have to be resorted to. There will be some difficulty in this respect in the interior of the colony, where there are many parishes of 400 to 600 miles in extent, and the population of course very scanty and wide weed. The next election of members to the House of Assembly will take place under the provisions of the new Electoral Act, which establishes vote by ballot and almost universal suffrage. The lists of penes qualified to be electors are now being made, and immediately after they have been revised an election will take place. Mr. Lyttieton H. Bayley, barrister-at•law, has been appointed Attorney-General of the colony, vice Mr. Lutwyc he, who hu been ruined to the judicial bench as one of the district judges under a recent set. Great masetion has been created by the recent appointments made by the Cowper ministry. Mr. Bayley, a very recent arrival from England, forth with finds himself thrust into an office the duties of which are entirely new to him, and is called to ad 'minister a code of colonial law of which he knows nothing. Another elevation, that of a Mr. Butler, to be Crown Prosecutor in the Sydney district, has Galled down its share of censure. Mr. Butler (an Irishman) was called to the bar of New South Wales about three years since, previously to which he was kw reporter for a Sydney journal. An excuse has Men made for Mr. Cowper, that barristers senior to them in standing had refused those appointments. Some turther law changes will take place in the worse of this mouth, as Mr. Justice Therry intends to resign the seat he has su long occupied on the ja 'heist bench of this colony. The centenary birthday of Robert Burns, the lyrist bard of Scotland, was celebrated here on the 26th by a 1 body of his countrymen, the Governor-Oet towel presiding at the banquet. The Staters of Mercy raised 760!. hat week by a bazaar in aid of the funds of St. Vincent's Pres Hes pital—the late mansion of Sir Charles Nicholson— et which they are the nurses. In the year IBC, the number of letters which M7through the Sydney poet-office was 626,300 ; 7 . there wen 2,602,900. The Commercial Bank of Sydney held the half yearly meeting of proprietors last week, when a di vidend of 20 per cent. per annum was declared, and a large sum carried on to the credit of the rest. Mr. Geo,4, Smith has been elected Mayor of Sydney for the current year. The corporation have voted 1,960/. for the erection of bathe for females in the Outer Domain, and 300/. for public fountains in various parts of the city. One of our city aldermen, Mr. , who has recently paid the debt of nature, lima n irby his will several munificent bequests : to the building fund Orr St. Mary's Roman Catholic Cathedral, 5001.; the Destitute Children's Asylum, Ha; the Benevolent Asylum. 200'.; and the Infirmary and General Hos. petal, 2iiol. each. Charitable bequests being scarce the colony, it may be hoped that the bounty of the worthy alderman will have • good effect in the way of ...temple. Several balloon ascents, recently made ben by • Mr. Brown. have excited the wonder of the natives. The near proximity of the sea obliged him to take very short bights; and last week, in effecting his descent, to avoid a ducking, he was dragged a con siderable distance through the scrub near Botany Bay, to the imminent peril of his life. The colonial government has incurred great sdium, by allowing Garden Island, Woolloomooloo Bay, to be made a naval station. Hitherto that picturesque locality has been a place of recreation for holiday excursions, and the cats are indignant at the prohibition which elute it up from their use. Four gold-diggers have lately navigated the Pitney Hien. in • canoe, for a distance of 230 miles, " prospecting " for a new gold field. They describe the country u most delightful and fertile, and the probability is that • population will be attracted to the banks of that river, and make it the seat of • new agricultural district. The clip of wool this year has been very abun dant, sad bullock drays laden with bales for ship ment are daily coming in from the pastoral districts. iteport speaks well, too, of the hay and corn harvest, sad fruits of all kinds are moat abundant. The prices of sheep and cattle are on the decline, and this of course has reduced that of beef and mutton, now bd. to 7d. per lb. The wages of mechanics and ser vants are 25 per cent, lower than they were two years ago, and, u we have frequent arrivals of emi grant ahips, the current rates may be considered se settled for some time to come. There is no want of labour in the interior, though in Sydney, as in Mel bourne, numerous persons are out of employ, par ticularly c'erks and ahopmen. The present summer has been singularly produc tive in the increase of snakes, and several instances of death, occasioned by their bite, have recently oc curred. Sur his the deadly poison of those reptiles. that death generally ensues in • quarter of an hour after the kutliction of the bite. The death adder and the brown and black snakes are the moat deadly specee. A beautiful reptile, called the carpet snake, front its varied colours, is not so much feared, but is nevertheless poisonous.

IMPROVED DWELLINGS FOR THE LABOUR ING CLASSES OF THE METROPOLIS. As two valuable societies have been working for some time to improve the dwellings of the poor, we have carefully inspected their opera tions. We think we can convince our readers that they have demonstrated the possibility of providing the labouring closets with healthy homes without requiring the aid of the benevolent. In the year 1844, " The Society for Improving the Condition of the Labouring Claim" was formed, under the active superintendence of the Earl of Shaftesbury. It has been incorporated by royal charter, and is patronised both by the Queen and the Prince Consort. It seeks to accomplish its object by erecting model buildings, renovating old and ill arranged houses in the worst localities, and in cleansing and ventilating whole courts and alleys, in proportion to its funds. What fruits have this society to show for its fifteen years' labour? From what we have seen we can say that the results are moat encouraging. The '14;1 lodging-house for families which best exemplifies the labours of this society for improving the dwellings of the married labouring classes of London, is in Streatham-street. This street is a small street does to New Oxford-street, running parallel to Great Hassell-street, between George street and Charlotte-street, Bloomsbury. We are sorry that this admirable building is so concealed from the public gaze. Not one person in 10,000 of than who pas daily within a few yards of it, along the crowded thoroughfare of New Oxford-street, has ever seen it. Nay, if you seek for it among its neighbours, you will find that few of the inhabitants of the great street know of its very existence. Yet here has been tried a great social experiment. Oround is far too valuable even in the meet out-of the-way street in this part of the metropolis to erect small dwelliags. How, then, can you secure to the family occupying three rooms all the comforts and piney of a separate dwelling ? This has been done, by erecting a large building four stories in height. It forms three aides of a spume. The upper stories are reached by open galleries carried along one side of the square. In this way all internal staircases, save the one by which the galleries are approached, are avoided. The separate dwellings consist of a dwelling-room and two bedrooms. Each opens by its own private outer door on one of the corridors or galleries. Suppose we visit one of these dwellings on the first floer, for example. We ascend the staircase leading to the gallery. This is covered over heed, but open and protected by iron railings towards the interior of the square . We find a neat outer door, with its knocker, and probably the name of the tenant on a brew plate. Knocking, we are admitted into a suite of rooms having all the privacy of a single house or cottage. The outer door does not open abruptly on the dwelling-room : we peas through a little passage, which leads to the door of the principal room. We find it well lighted, airy, and wholesome ; provided with a capital sage, with a boiler. In addition, there are two comfortable bedrooms, one with a fireplace in nee of illness. Now we come to some matters of detail, commonplace and vulgar enough, perhaps, but upon which not only the health, but even the moral purity of the inhabitants may depend. We find an excellent scullery lwell provided with water, so that the poor wife has no need to drag water up and down the weary stairs. A sink affords the means of getting rid of the dirty water. We open a kind of trap door in the scullery, which communicates with a shoot connected with the basement of the dwelling, and find a means of exit for the dust and refuse, which are immediately car ried far away from the dwelling, and the trap being shut down excludes any effluvia which might arise from the distant dust heap. There is also a water closet well supplied with water. Nor does this enu meration exhaust all the conveniences. We find a closet opening into the living-room, in which a bed may be turned up by day, if the exigencies of the Wally should require the conversion of the dwelling room into a bed-room by night. There is also a well-ventilated meat safe. Indeed, no set of chambers could be well devised more conducive to health and comfort. All these advantages may be secured for the small weekly rent of fuel 21. to 75., the majority king at is. sad 6r.--very little more than the poor man must pay in most parts of London for a single room, with no water laid on save at the bottom of the house, no privacy in things most essential for moral purity. We have, however, not yet exhausted the advantages of our model dwelling. There is a well-ordered wash-house in the basement of the buildings. By paying to the superintendent of the dwellings threepence, the thrifty housewife who would keep her husban d's dwelling free from the untrue of soapsuds can secure an unlimited supply o hot and cold water, and all the necessary appliances for washing for three hours. Should her work take her longer she can procure an addi tional ticket at the rate of three halfpence per hour. The spacious area of the interior of the square formed by the buildings affords au excellent drying-mend, as well asa place where the children may play, secure from the contamination of the streets. When we visited these buildings lately we found them all let, save one or two on the basement or underground floor ; which, though clean and com fortable, not being so eligible as those above ground, are let at a cheaper rate. For the best dwellings there were several applicants on the books In owe of a vacancy occurring. These applicant., many of them, had produced to the superintendent as a satis factory testimonial of character/the rent-books of their present residences to show their regularity as to paying their rent. We found ourselves welcomed by many of the inmates, who cheerfully and with honest pride showed us how comfortable they were. One woman made an observation, which called our attention most forcibly to the great peculiarity of the building. All the ceilings are vaulted over and ren dered tire-proof. She declared that she should be afraid to move into any other building not so con structed, for fear of being burnt out of her home by her neighbours. The collection of so many as fifty four families in one building affords the society the means of giving their tenants another advantage. A respectable coal-merohant finds that he can profit ably supply the inmates with coals at the market price. Those who choose to avail themselves of this can pay for their coal along with their rent, and thus obtain a considerable boon, with no loos of indepen dence. The cost of this building was 7,970/. The render ing it fireproof, u well u preventing the communi cation of sound or the percolation of water through the floors by tile arches, hardly exceeded 501. more than the ordinary combustible floors and roof would have cost. The building is erected on ground be longing to the estate of tho Duke of Bedford, let for a lease of 99 years, at an annual ground rent of 501. This his Grua fteserausly returns as a entneription to the society. We now come to a most important question in a pecuniary point of view. Is the build ing a loss to the society, or does it pay its own ex penses ? After deducting all charges for ground rent, repairs, bad debts, agent or superintendent for collecting the recto, &c., we are awned that this model building returns a profit of nearly 41 per cent on the outlay. Here, therefore, we have a model dwelling, affording a healthy wholesome home, in a crowded and valuable portion of the metropolis, to flay-four families, without in the least compromising their feelings of independence or ren deriog them m any degree recipients of charity. It ' may be said that this per centage is too small for private landlords, who generally look for their 8 or 10 per cent. To this we reply that it is far better than most railway returns. We cannot help think ing that the day will come when parishes, instead of trying to thrust the poor man out of their boundaries, will learn that it would he sounder wisdom to follow the example of the "Society for Improving the Dwellings of the Poor," and erect their own model dwelling-hone on similar principles. It would not be difficult to show that the increased healthiness, as well as moral improvement, thus introduced asses a few hundred families, would soon make a raw returu than ten or twelve per cent. in dionsishml poor or death rates.

The cue was not concluded when our report wee dr epatterA. The &tads were not of general interest. the article, the defendant tendered him a elver watch, which areseted to be the identical watch pledged in November. Antoine persisted that his watch was of eyold, and it is oar tainly so described on the fly of the daphnia, as also in to day-book of entries prescribed by statute to be kept foe all pledges exceeding the amount of lfte. Oa the kat of this ogee some few dap ago, Mr. Brabingtoa = wi rd two attestants swore that the three entries had been made in error. and that a silver watch, which they produced, was the identical watch deposited on loan by Antoine, who, en the other hand, swore that hie watch was of gold ; and the ma gistrate was called on by Brabington to reject the entry and rely on testimony directly conflicting with it. Mr. Bingluon, palming upon the opposing evidence, de ferred adj ud ication until he had well considered the cese, and now prejudgment. Mr. Bingham said—ln the ow of bonds and other instru ments under seal, no man Is permitted by 'mot evidence to contradict the contents of the writing; and the ream* for that prohibition applies almost ea strongly to written evi dence pm-appointed by statute. The object In both oases is by a deliberate and unchanging document to preclude the disputes that Inc/mangy arise where memory alone is relied on. The defendant and his witnesses are respectable men, and I acquit them of any intention to deceive, and I maks no doubt they are penuatled of the sectusay of their reoollectices. But I cannot bring myself to rely, after a quarter of a yese,tm slippery memory, In opposition to three writings made at the time on the pert of the defendant, with every opportunity ' far examination, and one of them with the Injunctions of en ace of parliament; and it is altogether to the Interest et pawnbrokers that, except in the ems of clearly.estahllehed fraud, such Inferior evidence should not be received to con tredict the more trustworthy. If a pswnloaker may establish by memory an allegation of mistake in the teeth of his own minas, then by the stronger reason might the perms pledging say, " the duplicate not of my writing, end lam not responsible for It. accuracy.

I have heard frequent applicatioes of this met, and it has been my practice to discourage them by telling the applicant he might have examined his dupli cate at the time, and have node hie objection before quitting the shop• otherwise, he stands In the same difficulty u one who receives counterfeit money, and. Instead of examining it in the pretence of the giver, makes his objection some time afterward,. I feel compelled therefore to decide in favour of the complainant, and If my declaim be wrong the defendant mast take the blame to himself for not conducting his bud asts with sufficient care. Mr. Kidd, late reccaderatilaeer . of the steam-ship Mel bourne, vP)Ord to Mr. Yardley for hie advice eft assistance under the following cirrmisaman : . . . . The applicant stated that during the late revolution in Hayti the steam-ahip Melbourne, on her way to England with who embarked at Jamaica. was ordered to Hayti troops e protection of English and French residents and pro perly, and her patience there and the landing of the English troops saved much bloodshed. The Emperor Soulooque, the and suite, with a met amount of property belonging t il o l = were also saved. He understood that a considerable ma of money was given to the captain of the Melbourne for the servion rendered, and that it was to be distributed the officers, soldier', and crew of the Melbourne, but a hrl. Kidd) and many other. had not received one farthing of money. Mr. Yardley said there was no doubt the money was given by the Emperor of Hayti, who owed his life to the fortunate proems of the steam hip Melbowrne at Port an Prince at a critical period, and the money probably was to be dietributed according to the captain's discretion. The captain might give it to whom be liked. Mr. Kidd mid that all on board the Melbourne shared in the common dearer, and that the sailers had to wear swords by their sides when they went on shore. The sailors rowed the troops from the steamship to the shore in the dead of the night and ebbed their lives. If the crew of the ship hsd been killed or wounded their widows aid themselves would not have obtained pemionajbecause they were in the merchant — Mr. Yardley—lt ma be im, that you were all exposed to danger; bat I bare no jurisdiction In the use whatever. Your only remedy Is to ilea bill in Cbancery against the osptaln,who is a scot of trustee for the proper distribution of the money. Row much mosey was given by the emperor' , eJtorether P Mr. Kidd—l don't know. I have heard it wu 2,0001. Mr. Yardley—lf you don't know bow much it is yea must Ille a bill of dieouveiy in the Court of Chancery, and whin you have expended 2001. or MW., you will probabl yanemias what amount the captain received. Mr. Kidd—We disembarked tro op. , we saved the em peror mad his property, and landed him safely at Jemmies and I think all hands on board ought to share in the distil balks of the money. Mr. Yardley—l have no juriedietion. You must go to the Coast of Chancery. Mr. Kidd looked grave at this announcement, shrugged his shoulders, and left the court.

The Galway Vindicator, a Roman catholic jeer,- eel, gives the following account of disturbances arising out of the visit of Signor Oavazzi to that town : "The Italian lecturer arrived here yeaterday. The nature of his opinions, or shimmed (minims, and motion may be goateed from this feet—that he was received by the ultra protestant saint, Brownrigg. Be lectured la the evening at the school in Merchants'-road. The subject, of course, was Italy sad the Papacy, and the usual ardent declamation marked his discourse. His auditory was of the lowest clasp, end a cansiderable number of boys who assembled in the neighbourhood of the conventicle kept up a chorus of shout ing. This day the apostle of discord proceeded through the city, accompanied by Mr. Broworigg, and mat with rather a warm reception. This region is much too catholic for these broths*. The saints were roughly handled, and Gavezzi was obliged to take refuge in the Dolts-barracks. 4 o'clock p.m.—The excitement has by this tints risen to a high pitch among the lower order of the populace, and a number of protc tant clergymen and wripture-resehre who were assembled with Gavaszi were boated end pelted at with 'Wawa sods of turf, and every description of missiles. The Bev. Mews. Atha Caldwell, Lewis, and Nihau& received very severe treatment. A emipturwreader named O'Connor received two blows from stones on the head, from which be is bleed* profusely; be took refuge ia • i shop but the cries of thumb wore so violent that he wee ejected into the street, and under the shelter of a single policemen ran for his life to the poilowberrack, where he is rear telex medical at tendinoe.

In the meanwhile °event, who had token shelter somewhere that no one knew where but himself, leaned forth, and, accompanied by a clergyman, made a taco out towards the west, fur the residence of the Rev. Mr. Browerigg, mad was hotly pur sued by the great body of the infuriated crowd ; but he had made his appearance in retreat before they had heard of it, As seem se they did, they rushed down in that direction, but by the judicious arrangements of the police authorities they were effectaally cut off frm pursuing him, which if they had eueoseded in doing, the results would have been desperate, if not fatal. Forty policemen, with fixed bayonets, were drawn acme the end of Dominick-street, adjoining Bridge-street. owe facing in the direction of Clseldrgh, to prevent the wild denizens of that locality from joining the populace is town ; the other facing into town, to prevent the pursuit of Gavemi. Fortunately, the Wooden-bridge was deed of access to the west, the draw-bridge being out of repair, and it is thought thread is safely bowed at the hour we write. The Rev. Mr. Memel] escaped without hurt, though he was obliged to be wonted home by Serjeent Melville. Where all the others bare taken shelter wo have not ascertained. The disturbance seems now nearly over, at the hour we are going to press, but the excitement continues very high.'

ADDRESSES ON LETTERS.—The following notice has been issued from the General Post-office :—Much diffi culty is experienced in the delivery to their right owners of let•ers imperfectly addressed; and postmasters have fre qwmtly incurred unjust censure either for unintentionally delivering each letters to wrong persons, or for declining the responsibility of delivering them at all, and tending them up le the returned letter branch. It often happens that there are several persons living is the same t .wa whose surname and cbristian name or initial are exactly alike, and some time' not only Is the name the same, but the trade or pro forekn, and even the street. The address of every letter ought to be full end distinct; but in the cases referred to It Is obvious that the correct delivery cannot be secured nukes the name, calling, street, end number of the person for whom the letter Is intended, be all given. An instruction has been leaned to all postrouters directing them to deliver letters im perfectly addressed whenever theyhave no reasonable doubt se to the persons for whom they are Intended, but in other eases to continue to send the letter to London to be returned to the writer.
