STAMPED sr) 611 AUSTRALIA. MEL BOURNE, MONDAY, Nov. 16. The Columbian, with the September mail, did not arrive until Saturday, being nine days after her time. Repeated derangement of her machinery is assigned as the cause of her delay. The City of Sydney, chartered to convey our November mail b Suez, came into port at the same time. This is a repetition of what occurred last month. It gives our merchants and others about 36 hours, including Sunday, to answer their letters ; but it deprives the Sydney merchants of the opportunity of so doing. If we are discontereed wi!h the miserable arrangements of the European and Australian Royal Mail Company, the New South Wales people have much greater reason for being so, and they and their correspondents at home will have an additional motive to promote the establishment of the Panama hue. The information (indictment) against the mates of the Lady Bird and the Champion, framed on the 239th section of the Merchant Shipping Act, was tried before Judge Barry on the 24th and 25111 October. Mr. Chapman defended the former ; Dr. Sewell the latter. The Crown put up the former first, as they seemed to have 'assumed that it was the stronger case ; but after an investigation of 8 hours and a-half, .and an adverse summing up by the learned judge, the jury acquitted the defendants. On the following day the mate of the Champion was - tried, but the witnesses contradicted their evi dence of the previous day, and were contradicted by Qther testimony, and the judge stopped the case, and directed an acquittal. It would be tedious and useless to go over the whole ground again, and there can be no doubt that the officers on board of both vessels were greatly to blame ; but tha case was not fully and completely got up. The press very naturally complains of the absurd conclusion that, after a collision between two ateatners on a clear night with all their lights pro perly burning and avowedly seen nine miles off, "no one is to blame." So far as the jury was con cerned, however, it cannot be denied that they were entitled to expect better evidence. This decision will not protect the owners from actions for pecu niary compensation at the suits of the personal representatives of deceased paasengers. 'We have in this colony a recent instance of a civil jury hav ing given several thousand pounds damages to a widow after a verdict of acquittal for manslaughler. The Assembly met again on the 3d of November, and has since then been chiefly occupied in giving completion to Bills which it had previously passed, and which have since been returned, with trifling amendments, by the Upper House. The moat im portant feature of the session is, that the two Houses will have passed all the necessary legislation for the prosecution of two lines of railway ; one to Sandhurst via Castlemaine, and the other to Ballarat from Geelong. Last Monday was our Lord Mayor's-day, and Mr. John Thomas Smith was chosen Mayor of Mel bourne for the fifth time. A good deal of not unreasonable alarm has been excited among all classes of our population in con sequence of the appearance of smallpox in the city. A ship called the Commodore Parry arrived about a month ago, having had several cases of smallpox on board. This fact was, however, concealed from the health officer who boarded her at the Heads , and the s'iip was passed. Not long after, first one and then another person was at tacked by smallpox, and it was ascertained that they had belonged to the Commodore Parry. The ship was then sent into quarantine, and the cap tain and surgeon were arrested, but the magis trates dismissed the case against them. In the meantime fresh cases occurred, and are Mill occurring, in the suburbs of Melbourne; and it is said one or two have made their appearance at a distance. The state of trade is not satisfactory. The sup ply of almost all kinds of goods, except the produce of the East, has been for some time getting ahead of the demand, and the stock of goods in first hands is now very large.

In the commercial intelligence of the Melbourne Argus we read : Export entries were passed at the Castoms to-day (14tb), for 16,271 ounces of gold, for shipment to England in the City of Sydney, via Suez, and in the Oliver Lang and Donald M'Kay, direct. The Oliver Lang cleared out with a total of 47,442 ounces, exclusive of small quantities in the hands of passengers, in the following parcels : Union Bank, 10,288 ounces ' • Bank New South Wales, 7,500 do.; Londo n Charte re d Bank, 7,452 do. ; English, Scottish, and Australian Chartered Bank, 6,920 do.; Bank of Australasia, 5,253 do.; Bank of Victoria, 5,061 do.; Dennistoun Brothers and Co., 4,469 do.; Mackay, Baines, and Co., 140 do. ; M.

The money market has been increasing in tightness since our last summary was issued. Under the impree sion that shipments from Great Britain mast fall off, speculators have been induced to buy when goods have been offered at tempting rates. They have pro cured advances in the hope of realising is a rising market, but they have held on until they have found a money market tightening over their heads, airl sales impossible except at a ruinous loss. The advances mounted up from 5,106,9281. during the first quarter ot 1856 to 8,194,860/ during the third quartnr of 1857. The banks have determined to permit no further increa.49 to take place, and their sudden carrying out of this determination has caused much of the tightness which now prevails. In this condition of affairs there is a great call for caution in future financial operations. There have been several failures since our last summary, but none of sufficient importance for separate mention. The 4th of the month, which was rather a heavy one for November, passed off wall, but there is still a great de mand for advances. The banks now charge 7 per cent. for discounting bills having under 95 days' currency, and 8 per cent. minimum for those having over 95 days to run. For rtnewals and for overdrawn accounts 10 per cent. is charged. Drafts are issued on England at 11 per cent. premium at 60 days' sight ; for amounts under 501. at 2 per cent. premium at 30 days' sight. Bills against gold are purchased at 1 per cent. premium.

LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, JANUARY 9, 1858. NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE. The lamented death of Sir Henry Havelock will create a vacancy in the list of General officers, and render a new appointment to the colonelcy of the 3d Buffs necessary in the room of Gen. Wodehouse. Col. T. Wood, of the Grenadier Guards, becomes a Major-General ; Lieut.-Col. Jas. M'Queen, lately commanding a cavalry depot, a Colonel ; and Major E. Wodehouse, a Lieutenant-Colonel in the army. Col. Eden, Commandant at Chatham, is now the senior Colonel. By Col. Wood's promotion a step will go without purchase, causing the promotion of Col. C. W. Ridley to be regimental Lieut.-Colonel ; Col. Lewis, to be Major ; Brevet-Major Tipping, to be Captain and Lieutenant-Colonel ; and Lieut. Thynne, to be Lieutenant and Captain. The following General Order has been issued from the Horse Guards for the guidance and infor mation of all commanding officers of regiments and depots at home and abroad : "1. All extracts of general, district, and garrison courts-martial entered in the court-martial book are to be verified by the signature of the officers commanding depot battalions, and the officers commanding depots to which the court-martial book belongs. "2. Two-company depots are to keep all the books laid down by regulatio❑ for four-company depots. "3. Officers are to be sent from the depots to the ser vice companies strictly according to roster, whether the re4iment is in the united kingdom or on foreign service. This order is not intended to alter the regulations already laid down regarding the commanding officers of depots and the musketry instructions. " 4. In cases where there are only two captains doing duty with a four-company depot, neither of them can be permitted to go on leave of absence. With a two-com pany depot it is only required that one captain shall be present during the leave season." Captain C. R. Mure, 43d Light Infantry, with eight men of that corps, has been directed to em bark at Gravesend on board the York with those troops - under orders to proceed from Chatham gar rison, to embark for Madras. Staff Assistant-Sur geon W. H. Price has received directions to embark on board. the United Service steamship, in medical charge of troops proceeding to India. Captain T. P. Casey, in command of the Royal Marines serving on board the Renown, 91, screw steamer, made an attempt on his life on Wednes day night by cutting his throat with a razor. On Laing discovered he was still alive, he was at once taken on board a al earner which landed him at Chat ham Dockyard, when he was conveyed to Melville Hospital ; but from the injuries ha has inflicted on himself it is not expected that he will recover. Col. Bell, Inspecting Field Officer at Liverpool, approved and sent off to join their respective corps 4,000 men within the last three months, exclusive of great numbers forwarded direct to head-quarters from out-stations in the district. Sir James Fellows ' M.D., F.R.S., L. and E., Inspector-General of Military Hospitals, died a few days ago at Langston Cottage, near Ports mouth, the residence of his son, Captain Fellowes, in his BGth year. The deceased served on the con tinent in 1794 ; was at the sieue of Cadiz, and at the battle of Barossa unde r Gen. Graham, after wards Lord Lynedoch, and received the Peninsu lar war medal and clasp for Barossa, ' • he was knighted by G e o rge 111. f or hi s genera l services, especially at Gibraltar during the pestilential fever in 1804-5. He was one of the English who were confined in the Temple during the revolutionary period in Paris. On his retirement from the ser vice he was honourably mentioned by the Lords of the Treasury in a minute dated March 3, 1815. He was Senior Fellow of the Royal College of Phy sicians, and a ma g istrate and Deputy-Lieutenant of the county of Hants. Sir James was elder brother of Admiral Sir Thomas Fellowes, who died in 1853. The Vulcan, G, Commander John Seacombe, ar rived at Portsmouth f r o m th e wes t war d on Wed nesday evening to await further orders. She went into Portsmouth Harbour yesterday afternoon. The Admiralty yacht Vivid, having completed repairs at Woolwich, is ordered to proceed on a trial trip of her machinery at the measured mile to-day, prior to entering on spe3ial service. The steam storeship Doe, Master-Commander Pullen, arrived yesterday at Woolwich from the west, having encountered a severe gale of wind in the Channel. The store transport Buffalo was yesterday docked at Woolwich, to be fitted with Griffith's patent screw propeller.

He adverted to our proposed diplomatic intercourse with Rome, to the difficulty of receiving a priest at St. James's in full canonicals, told a story of the Archbishop of Narbonne, who, in the da)s of his emigration, had got over the dif• culty by going to George 111. in Court dress with a sword. because I found afte rwar d s th a t th e " I only allude t o the.se trivial subjects of conversation King, bad been studying effect to th e l ast , an d t h a t h e had sail to those as if he had to whom Isiaotn4aheedswponkheLimormdeNdioartmelyanabfytetrow-nairgt,wi I am very been speaking to me of the passing concerns of the mo ment, and I had approved the course of his Government.' The upshot was that, as Lord Normanby alleges, there was not a man in France who continued to put - the slightest trust iu the King. M. Duvergier d'Hauranne was one of the Ministers employed in the revolutionary crisis to appease the people with the announcement of a new Ministry and of po pular reforms. Even he is represented as stating that in the part of the town where he was person ally known the people, at his bidding, demolished the barricades ; but many added, " You will, see, sir, the old man will deceive you, as he has every one else that has had anything to do with him." The account of the " old plan's" fall and flight contains one or two particulars which we do not remember to have seen elsewhere : " The King and Queen arrived at Rouen, embarked on board the river boat, they then re-descended in it to Havre, but had to make a short step from one quay to the other to get on board the English steamer. And here it was that the King was very near betraying him self by overactink the part of an English bourgeois anxious to return home. It was evidently of the utmost importance that in a place where he was baa likely to be personally known ho should keep himself quiet, and endeavour to escape observation. Instead of which, I hear, ho was bustling about exclaiming loudly, " Where is Mrs. Smith ? Where is my old woman ? Come here, my dear.' He was, in point of facer, recognised by a fishwife on the.quay, who screamed out, "Tis the King, who is making his escape.' But it was too late to stop him ; he was already under the protection of the Eng lish flag—the ladder was at once loosened from the quay, and the vessel, with all her steam well up, pursued her course at full speed. "It is .to be remarked that the Provisional Govern ment (as I have good reason to know) were very desirous he should make his escape. His Majesty's only danger, therefore, was from popular frenzy, which there might not be power on the spot to resist. "On his arrival in England where, be was received with every demonstration of sympathy and respect, he astonished those who cause out to 'met him, by the levity of his department. All who have ever. been brought into social contact with his Majesty are aware of a remarkable deficiency in hia nature ; he never had the slightest sentiment of personal dignity, and upon this occasion the most extraordinary circumstance in the history of this extraordinary man is that in quitting the throne he seemed to have lost all feeling of identity or moral connexion with the individual who had ceased to occupy it. He seemed to consider the whole merely as a drama, in which he had ceased to play his accustomed part, and to believe that he could separate himself completely from the character he bail formerly assumed, and discuss it with all the freedom of a bystander." The nomination of M. Cremieux as ono of the members of the Provisional Government was, ac cordint, to Lord Normanby, owing to his own adroit impudence. When the mob invaded the Chamber M. Marie first proposed the names of Lamartine, Ledru Rollin, Arago, Gamier Pages, and himself, as a Provisional Government, and Lamartine added at the head of the list that of M. Dupont de l'Eurs, whose patriarchal experience in revolutions hadgiven to his respected name a pre-eminence which his years prevented fr©m being more than nominal. M. La martine proposed also that Dupont de l'Eure should occupy the President's chair, and urged him topro claim a Provisional Government, handing him for the purpo3o the six names aforesaid ; but it is said that, amid the deafening tumult, the names writton down by Lamartine could not be heard when read from the President's chair by poor old Dupont do l'Eure. The latter then transferred to the list to the person standing next to him, who having a weak voice, was equally inaudible, and as it was impossible that no time should ba lost, these names were then given to M. Crenaieux, who had the lungs of Stentor, and he added his name, which was, amid all the confusion, adopted with the others. " Thus was appropriated, for the moment, one seventh of absolute dominion over 35,000,000 of people." A friend of Lord Normanby's, to whom he afterwards mentioned this anecdote, and who was at the time in office, corroborated it by adding that ho himself was the nrin with. the weak voice, and that the anecdote was true. h nt er v i o )r p o u o l f a b r o dictator ship. ct easya to r i - t The further explanation of the process by which ship. The four extras had been named secretaries, i t s he to se and as such bad signed the decrees near the bottom fit cllll becamea r e e of e f v e a n s i o s i - a d n i s o a t of the page ; but little by little they crept up and mixed themselves with the others ; the adjutant of secretaries was then omitted, and they came to have a consultative voice with those first named. M. do Lamartine could not explain the stages in this usurpation, but, according to Lord Normandy, they occurred in this succession. The first proclamation of the Gouvernement Provisoire stated that— " Il est compose de I would have given it temporary strength, and would also have confirmed the chances of its continuance." At this point the situation was well described by a French statesman as one in which " while every month showed a Republic to be more and more impossible, it still remained less impossible than anything else." Such a situation was most trying, not only to the French Government, but to all who had relations with it, and who wore desirous, to give it their fair support. Under such circum stances it is no slight credit to Lord Normanby himself that, however instructed, he was in the main succ3ssful. In conclusion, we extract an account of the atro cities committed in the insurrection of June, and which appears to be more authentic than any we have seen elsewhere " I inquired of M. Bastide whether it was ascertained what amount of truth there was in the reports of cruel ties said to have been committed by the insurgents. He replied he r egre tt e d t o b e li eve t h a t th ere h a d been no exaggeration on that point. It was quite true that to many of the balls bad been attached poisoned linen, which had caused death in many cases where the wound itself was not mortal. The balls were also formtd to make the worst possible wounds ;: sometimes with a pieta of pointed brass stuck into them. "The decoizipoition of the bodies was also unusually rapid. A bundle of poisoned lint was taken to one of the hospitals ; it was only upon seeing the agony it occasioned that it was examined by the surgeons, and found to have been steeped in some corrosive liquid. A pump was seized behind the Barriere Roohelionard, the reservoir of which was half-full of oil of vitriol, which these ruffians pumped in the faces of the attacking party. The story of the poisoned brandy, sold by the cantiniers, was not confirmed ; bat it had not been at once contradicted, from authority, as it was calculated to prevent so much drunkenness at a moment when so many men from various parts are collected in Paris. All that has been said of the cruelties practised on the Garde Mobile is true. In one place they took four or five of these children, who had surrendered as prisoners, auck a pike through their throats under the chin, tied their bands down, and, placing them in front of a win dow, fired between their legs, thinking the soldiers would not return the fire when they saw the Mobiles. They cut also off a head from one, filled the mouth with pitch, lighted a match in it, and danced round to the tune of 'Les Larapions.' Having surprised a small corps do garde filled with Mobiles, they killed them all in cold blood ; and some female monsters amused them selves with cutting out their tongues and stringing them upon a cord." These facts may account for some of our critics of the French Press expressing such a faint abhor rence of the atrocities of the sepoys.—Times. THE CROWN JE WELS. (From the Times.) The jewels aro to be sent back to Hanover. The arbiters—Lord Wensleydale, Sir Page Wood, and Sir Laurence Peel—compelled to act according to the strict law of the case, have decided that the patriotic feelings of George 11., George 111., and old Queen Charlotte must be indulged, and the jewels, consequently, be g iven up. Let us be thankful it is no worse. Could the desires of these royal personages, for whom England and the Eng lish people had done so little, have been fulfilled, every cupboard in Windsor Castle would have been swept out, and the sweepings despatched to Hano ver, for fear of mistakes. We ought to be duly grateful for what we have received. The advantages of the union between that lovely Electorate and the Three Kingdoms were so obviously on our side that we must not grumble if our departed bene factors hold us to the letter of the bond. Bat for the assistance which Hanover so lavishly afforded to us during our continental wars it might have fared but badly with the English flag. During the reigns of the first two Georges the interest of the Electorate were kept strictly subservient to the in terests of Great Britain. Our fathers wet e never embroiled in hostilities for the benefit of Hanover. All our military operations in the north of Ger many wore conducted with an entire disregard of what might befal the hereditary dominions of the House of Brunswick. No adventurers from that interesting part of the world ever found grace or favour in the sight of English Sovereigns to the pre judice of their adopted. subjects. The en deavour seems always to have been to bestow the most anxious care upon the interests of the country which had called them to the barren honours of an inglorious throne, while their own native subjects Hanoveriatis born and bred—were dismissed by their own Electors from their presence with unnatural indifference. Every student of English history is well aware of the extraordinary difficulties against which every English Minister from 1714 to 1760 had to contend when it was necessary to persuade either the First or Second George to avert his anxious gaze for a while from English policy, and to bestow one pass ing glance upon the important destinies of his own people. They could scarcely be persuaded to visit Hanover. For our good they had come among us, and they ,would not—however their hearts might be inwardly wrung—spend one hour in Hanover which they could possibly avoid. George 111., again, gloried in the name of Briton, and while he remained a responsible agent never bestowed a thought upon Hanover which England might have claimed. Of that Sovereign, however, we would say but little ; when so heavy a calamity as he was afflicted with has fallen upon any man, pity bids us stand aside and refrain from criticism which might be construed as a reflection upon his memory. Queen Charlotte, however, knew very well what she was about, and, like other previous members of the family into which she had married, was careful in all things to dissociate things English from things German. To so high a point did the Consort of George 111. push this excellent principle, that when she was dead it was found that the very clothes with which she had been furnished when she came among us had been packed up in various trunks, and were directed by her will to be re turned to Germany. She would not insult us with any of her leavings,—a Royal and a gracious thought. What wonder, then, that the jewels which she had purchased out of the savings of her income—and from what sources that income was derived we need not say—were also assigned to follow in the wake of the rejected garments ? England had done so little for her husband, her sons, and herself. The change was so incon siderable from that glorious Principality which had the honour of her birth to the English thron e that indeed there was no great reason why she should have been particularly chary in the matter. For half a century, or thereabouts, she discharged the painful duties of an English Queen; so, clearly, the obligation was not on her side. Besides, various members of her family must from time to time have given her many an anxious thought, and, as the British Parliament invariably refused all requests to clear theta from the consequences of their extra vagance, the Royal matron was compelled to draw upon her private resources, which she frequently did, as is sufficiently notorious, and with no spar ing hand. Let us, then, console ourselves for the loss of these jewels ; we had no right to expect that either George 11. or Queen Charlotte should do anything for the ungrateful nation which had done so little for them. The matter, as we before re marked, might have been worse. Had these illus trious personages possessed the power, as they had the will, no doubt all the Regalia of England would many years back have been safely lodgtd in the Green Vaults of one or other of those powerful States which gave them birth. We may, however, disabuse the English public of any such apprehen sion. The Regalia of England are intact. Neither the earlier Georges nor Queen Charlotte, happily, could lay their hands upon them. The jewels of which we are about to be deprived are not those old historical ornaments in the Tower of London, which it would have been shameful to us as a na tion to resign. The Hanoverian " loot" is of the value of about 100,0001. The jewels of which it consists are those which are worn upon half- State occasions. They can be easily replaced, for no historic value attaches to them other than their connexion with Hanover and Queen Char lotte. Painful as it is to disconnect ourselves from associations such as these, the trial must be borne. To speak seriously for a moment , we would say that there is not an Englishman who will not hear with the highest satisfaction that this trumpery has been packed off to Hanover, and with it the last bond which united us to that famous Principality. We have done with Hanover and things Hanoverian. So let us he glad, and re joice that we English people can henceforth have our insignificant country to ourselves, and let us leave all German Principalities to the grandeur they have inherited and the jewels they have won. A Hanoverian Potentate has put Colonel Blood to gain by his succes s f u l shame—much good may he foray. THE LEVIATHAN. —The launching of the mon s t er was continued as usual throughout yesterday. At the close of the day the result was an advance of 12 feet 8 inches aft, and 11 feet forward. Beyond this bare fact nothing worthy of mention took place, except, perhaps, that the vibration of the earth consequent upon each shp of the vessel was more violent and more continuous than has ever been experienced at the yard hitherto. A YEAR OF REVOLUTION. This narrative of Lord Normanby is calculated to disappoint, and we learn that it has disappointed, its readers. It has neither the lucidus ordo of bis- tory nor the charm of an unreserved record of facts. Lord Normanby could not reveal all ho had learnt in his private communications as an English Minister of State, and he had not in any other function or capacity the means of learning very much more than other people. On the one hand his book is defective from his deference to political " MM. DUPONT DE L'EURE. usages, which he was bound to respect; and, on LAMARTINE.

The new Minister of Finance, Mr. Jones, has made a plain, clear statement of the financial posi tion of the colony. According to it there would be, on the 31st Dec. next, a deficit of 128,5511., the revenue for the year being estimated at 1,146,3381., and the expenditure at 1,274,8891.

Money must be had some how notwithstanding, and the government will . have to bring forward a new scheme of taxation, issue Exchequer-bills, or borrow from the banks. The money market continues tight, and credit, though sound, is sparingly given, trade being given in a dull and even depressed condition, with little prospect at present of improvement. There is no alteration in the rates of exchange or interest. The share market during-the past month has been very quiet, and transactions have been confined principally to the shares of the colonial banks and insurance companies, which securities have main tained their prices, and, in seine instances, aro a little firmer.

COLONIAL HORSES FOR THE INDIAN ARMY. (From the Sydney Morning Herald, Nov. 10 ) When the fearful condition of our fellow-countrymen and women in India became known in this city, and the want of horses for the Indian army was understood, efforts were at once made to form a committee foe the purpose of collecting information in respect of this im portant matter. The consequence of this movement was, that before Col. Robbins arrived in Sydney, cir culars said letters were sent to all parts of the colony. Colonel Robbins commenced purchasing at Paramatta, and then visited Windsor, Penrith, and Brengala, leaving Camden, Appin, Campbelltown, and Liverpool still to be visited in the Home District. He has got above 60 horses, besides about 30 bought in Sydney, which is most promising, considering the difficulties of a commencement. It was not known exactly what style of horse was meant, or what price would be given, and it was industriously circulated that ho took only first-rate horses, and was offering no more than 121. a head, which prevented great numbers from coming forward. The horses he has purchased are strong and active, fit to mount a heavy stock-keeper ; the price given, we understand, has been from 25/. to 45/. Colonel R-ibbins proceeds next week to the Heater, and there is no doubt of his having from these two home districts full cargoes for the Undaunted steamer, and Monica clipper ship, which he has chartered, and which will be despatched the instant they are fitted. These will carry to our countrymen nearly 500 suitable horses thorcugbly broken in, upon which dragoons may be en - muted and made available even in the campaign, which was the original object in establishing the asso ciation. Colonel Robbins wants 1,400 horses more, and if they are get good and at a reasonable price, the Government of India will take the same number every year. The Undaunted will leave this port with the first cargo in a tem days. -.7F-?, ' *>:*:V:, ,I_,Z:\ , •••,77'4,-7.:,‘:‘:-',,/:( , _,- :'", ..---- ) NEW CONSTITUTION AT THE ANTIPODES. One of the most practised of Englishmen, Gover nor Sir William Denison, has just constructed a constitution and a system of government for this remarkable race of people. Experience has proved that men may make mistakes in providing for the Pitcairn Islanders, now settled in Norfolk Island, and it may turn out Sir William has also mistaken them. But on the face of the thing the constitution he has framed seems a very fitting one for the modern Utopia—for a race noted hitherto for its gentleness, obedience, love of order, and a very fair share of industry. Universal suffrage, election of magistrates annually, and appeals only to the decision of their ownlot selected juries in all ordinary cases, may briefly serve as the outline of the con stitution. Annually, the day after Christmas-day, the chief magistrate and his two assistants, deno minator' councillors, are to be elected ; the chief magistrate must be at least 28 years old, must be a resident, and must own a landed estate on the island. The councillors must be resident, and must be at least 25 years old. The chief magi strate will be in fact, although not in name, the Lieutenant-Governor of the island, carrying into effect all instructions he may receive from the Governor of New South Wales ; and he will carry OR the government of the land, with the advice of his two councillors, whenever he asks it. All three will act as magistrates during their year of office, and commissions as magistrates will be forwarded to them from Sydney annually, as soon as official notice of the election has been sent up. Every male inhabitant of 21 years of ago will be an elector, provided he has been six mouths a resident, and provided he can read and write. The laws and regulations of the island may be changed at any time by a public meeting and a poll of the people present, providing the change has been called for by the chief magis trate and councillors ; but the proceedings will have to be forwarded to the Governor of New .South Wales for his approval. All minor cases of police or of debt, arc., will be decided by the magis trates ; all more serious cases, criminal or civil, by juries of seven elders, not less than 25 years of age, chosen by lot ; but cases involving danger of life or limb must be reserved for the consideration of the coin to of justice in Sydney. Every child must re ceive a public education, a pecuniary penalty being levied for non-attendance, heavier than the fee charged for attendance ; the schoolmaster to re ceive all the fees and penalties, which will be col lected for him, free of deduction, by the chief ma g istrate. No beer, wino, or spirituous liquors to .to landed on the island except for medical stores. The chaplain of the island is entrusted with con siderable powers ; he will be the returning-officer, but cannot be elected magistrate or councillor ; ho will have supreme charge of the education given to the children ; he will keep and issue the medical stores. The only public income provided appears to be that derived from police lines and penalties. So curious a mixture of thorough Radicalism gene rally with Toryism in religion and education we have never read befor e . I t would be a Utopian constitution for any ordinary people, who would certainly soon grow disaffected as regards the reli gious, the educational, and intoxicational provi sions. But possibly it may all the better suit the peculiarities of the inhabitants of the rook-bound island of the Pacific.-11faitland Mercury, SALE OF THE PROPERTY OF LEOPOLD 1011)TATM—A further sale of the property of Redpath took place yes terday, at the auction mart, when Mr. Marsh sold by auc tion the following:—The reversion to 83 shares in the London and Westminster Bank, 201. per share paid ; and to the sum of 1301. secured en mot tgage, receivable on the_ death of a lady aged 63 , unless a ge n t leman aged 40 10 "1 1.

For many years I suffered severely from chronic rheumatism, which at length produced a complication of nervous diseases that made me perfectly miserable. The most approved reme dies in medicine and dint were had recourse to in vain, the faculty of digestion was brought to a complete stand-still, and death must apparently have soon resulted had not my attention been providentially drawn to the Revalenta Ara lies. The very satisfactory character of the testimonials induced me to make a trial of it ; even within a few days after I commenced using it some of the worst symptoms were so much subdued as to enable me to take a sufficient quantity of food and drink without any injurious consequences. This I had not been able to do for four years previously, and dur- ins the last two months of this time net in any measure ex cept at the imminent risk of my life, though the greatest care was used iu the selection of what was taken; sleep had nearly forsaken me, this has now been restored to me, and I am now, after having taken the Revalenta for some time, able to perform those functions of animal life which before had been nearly suspended in me. I have seen it produce equally good effects in other cases among some of my friends to whom I have recommended it, but to ex plain all the benefit which I have received from it would be to fill a pamphlet.—l am, &c., JAMES Culrmarz.
