PARSONS' PATENT BOILER EXPLO SION PREVENTIVE and WATER FEED INDICATOR.— This apparatus, which can be fitted to a boiler In a few hours, is of the most simple description. It constantly indicates the supply of water, and when the boiler becomes dangerously heated unfailingly and harmlessly ejects the whole of the steam, instead of bursting the boiler. It also effects a great saving of wear and tear in the general use of boilers, and decreases the consumption of fuel. It has received the unqualified approval of some of the most eminent engineers of the day, and Mr. C. May, C.E., of Great George-street, reports on it as follows :—" I consider that with the whole invention applied an explosion is almost an impossibility, and having witnessed the ap plication to a high-pressure boiler at the works of the patentee, I confidently recommend It as sound in principle and efficient in its action." By the general use of this apparatus owners of boilers will effect a large annual saving, and the public will be spared those fre quent recitals of horrible boiler explosions, such as the recent one at Newchurch, with loss of life, limb, and property.—Full particulars may be obtained, personally or by post, from the London Offices, 72, Old Broad-street, E.C.

HANCOCK, of Bruton-street and New C Bond-street, Jeweller and Silversmith to the Principal Sovereigns and Courts of Europe, begs leave to remove an erroneous impression which exists amongst some of his customers, that he has retired, or is about to retire, from business. This impression (which is entirely unfounded) has probably arisen in consequence of the re tirement and selling off f a jeweller of the same name, also of New Bond-street, but with whom C. F. Hancock is not, and never has been, in any way connected, either in business or by relationship.

Some of the districts are agricultural, wthout an over-- whelmteg mining populalion ; others are still essentially pastoral. Melb erne proper i s mercan tile ; North Melbourne partly manufacturing. It has been p ro p ose d b y M r . Wil son , f e e n e rly editor an l still part proprietor of the Argus, that inte rests or cl asses only s h ou ld b e groupe d into eight classes —namely, - agricultural, mining, pastoral, mercantile, manufacturing, labouring, &c., find that each cl ass s h ou l d return e i ght mem b ers, making a house of 64; and yet with the same breath he deprecates delegation. His proposel is equivalent to the establishment of complete dele gation. What we have most to fear here is the in fluence of a very uneducat e d wea l t h y c l ass. Al though their sympathies ought to be with the classes front which they have emancipated them selves, they are not unfrequently hard masters and exacting employ,rs. They do not retire and litre upon their rents and interest of their money as the newly rich do in England, but continue to employ their money to the best advantage. Under the scheme proposed for the represei tati on of class interests they would form a very large proportion of the house. Th e working classes, mechanics, artisans, miners, &c., are quite aware that they meet with much warmer sympathies from men of wore "gentle" birth, of better education and more moderate wealth—a class which our systein of representation is much more likely to place in the house. If this schedule is carried, the contain will be allowe I to. fall upon this session in a few weeks. Parliament will be disseleed in June—that is, after the next registration, and the new Asetembly will meet in August. If - ministers are beaten, which, however, does not seem very likely, they will appeal to the country. ' Tbe very short duration and small degree of the late commercial embarragsment, and the complete restoration of confidence and credit, have kept the financial condition of the colony in a state of pros perity. The revenue Las continued unaffected ; and our expenditure on establishments, though a; - parently large, is far within the total revenue. The consequence is, that we expend'annu ally enorinous sums in reeds and public works. As the interest on our railway loan is a first cha-ge on the general revenue, in the event of a bad financial year the temporary cessation of public works renders the, security perfect. The loan by debentures, author- ise 1 by the legislature, is 8,000,0001., which will be required in four years. With the aid and co operation of our banks, I believe that this money will be raised in the first instance in the colony, ueleas communication which is understood to have been made to some of the large English capital'sts should show it to be more advantageous to contract directly with the moneyed houses at home. In the former case, our debentures, payable in Lon don, will find their way home as remittance s, and what Mr. Samson Ricardo called the exportation of securities will form part of the purchasing power of the c louy. So, incl , ed, they will be in the latter case, only by a different mode—that is, the government will remit and draw. The railway contractor.' tenders were opened on Monday for night, in the presence of the Governor and Execu tive Council, all the contractors and the press being present. There were seventeon contract ors for different sections of the line. The rates varied very much, and the engineers and their clerks are now analysing and abstracting them. It is calcu lated that the whole 208 miles of the trunk lines will be constructed at the average rate of about 33,0001. per mile, and that the whole cost will be about 7,000,000/. I have no doubt whatever that these lines will pay. The passenger traffic is large, for the hebit of moving from place to place is as conspicuous here as it is in America. But the goods traffic will furnish a larger proportion of the rail way receipts than in England, as they will not be subject to the competition of inland navigation. Many of the contractors tendered "payable in cash or debentures at par," but it is understood that the Goyernmentis opposed to making any payment in debentures, as the necessities of contractors would compel them to hawk them in the markets. More over, as the credit of the colony ought to be, and I believe is, good, debentures bearing 6 per cent. in terest ought to be at a premium. The supply of gold now falls short of that of last year by only 40,000 ounces. The balance of im ports over exports is now less than 150,0001. The general state of trade is good, and the finances of the country are in a healthy condition ; but the non-arrival of the mail at the proper time always produces some degree of stagnation. THE .

THE STATE OF FRANCE. (Prom the Times.) The state of affairs in France since the attentat of the 14th of January last has ( xhibited a gradual, and steady decline, equally painful to those who witness and fraught with anxious considerati in to those who feel the in creasing weight with which the Government presses on its subjects. We may have been—we hope we have been—mistaken ; but it certainly has appeared to us as if the French Government since that unhappy day has divided its attention betweeu measures of precaution, which no one can blame it for adopting, and attempts to Inspire terror which involuntarily carry back the mind to a period of history which we bad hoped was sealed up, never to be reopened. The law with regard to suspected persons was not required as an authority for the Em• peror of the French to deal with those whom he might think obnoxious to his Government in any manner that he might think proper ; he already possessed, and bad frequently exercised, the amplest and most unlimited control over the liberties of his subjects ; but, if the law was not required to extend the power of the Govern ment, it, at any rate, served as a useful engine to work upon the fears of the people. The military rey;ino in augurated by the division of the Empire into five dis tinct commands was another direct appeal to the fears of the public, and a third and not less significant demon stration was made by the appointment of General Es pinasse to the Ministry of the Interior. The previous his tory of the General was not favourable to the hopes of those who sigh under the present system of repression, and conveyed, as it probably was meant to convey, pre sages of ill-omen to those who by any one of a hundred ways might have rendered themselves obnoxious to Im perial suspicion. The fortune of General Espinasse was made by the happy coincidence that he was the officer on whom de volved the melancholy duty of turning the National Assembly out of the place of refuge which it had sought for itself, and trampling out under the feet of his sol diers the last sparks of a freedom so dearly purchased and so briefly and turbulently enjoyed. From that period, with the exception of his unhappy reconnais sance in the Dobrudecha, we hear nothing of him till we find him established in the Ministry of the Interior,—to give, we s u pp ose , to that dep irtnaent a military vigour and promptn ess w hi c h hi s predecessor was not thought to possess. D ur i ng h i s tenure of of fi ce t h e G ener al devoted him se lf t o the repressive part of his duty ; he watched the conspirators, overawed the Republicans, he decimated the members of secret oocieties, and some times, in the height of his enthusiasm, he is said to have punished the innocent, in order the more effectually to terrify the guilty. His Ministry was regarded as a formal and distinct proof of the ascendancy of force ; it symbo lized only too faithfully the predominance of the mili tary over the civil element ; it showed the fears of the Government and the entire helplessness of the people. Bad as has been the fate of the French press since the imp d'etat, its miseries have been aggravated tenfold under the control of its military censor, and the roughness of the camp and the garrison was imported into the quiet chambers of a public office. What good General Espinasse may have done we know not, and shall never know ; the evil that he has accomplished is plain enough. Ile has during his short administration drawn duwn upon himself and his Government a vast amount of unpopularity, and tightened the cord to a point at which it seems impossible to maintain it, and very dangerous indeed to relax it. It is, then, with great satisfaction we learn that this military minister has been displaced to make room for M. Wangle, who, if he have shown himself a very scrupulous instrument of the Imperial Government, is, at any rate, a lawyer of eminence, and accustomed to appeal to other principles than terror and restraint. The change is a well advised and prudent one, but it has come not a day too soon. No Government, how ever powerful, can afford to live at the rate at which the Government of France has been going on for the last six mouths. We have waited long for symptoms of a return to that moderation and good sense for which we were once happy to give the French Government credit, and we recognise a step in the right direction in the dismissal of M. Espinasse. We hope that this may not be the last step is this direction, hut only the precursor of other steps as easy and. as urgently needed. It is not our province to meddle in tire internal affairs of France, but we may be pardoned for expressing the opinion that a Power which makes itself less continuously and overwhelmingly felt is likely to be of longer duration. We trust aleo,that a return to a less repressive system of government may be accom panied with indications of a more friendly feeling towards this country than has recently prevailed. We hope, in fact, that things will be allowed to return to their old state, such as it was before the 14th of January, —such as it ought to have been up to this hour, if people hail listened to the dictates of reason and good sense, rather than rushed into violent extremes under the influence of fear and irritation. We believe that in this country there is every disposition to put the best construction on the acts of the Emperor of the French. We are only too anxious to believe that lie is our good friend and faithful ally, and we gladly welcome an event like the dismissal of General Espinasse, as tending to re alise our convictions and confirm our hopes. We trust that, as the sword has been laid aside in the civil govern. ment, we may speedily witness a return to a pacific attitude on the part of France, which may save us from the unwelcome necessity of arming in a time of profound peace, that we may not be at the merely of a powerful neighbour. At any rate, we may rejoice reasonably over the good things of to-day, without embarra-sing ourselves with too curious speculations upon the pos. sib!e events of to-morrow. THE OVERLAND MAIL. BOMBAY, MAY 19. The following telegrams, giving an account of Sir Hugh Itos.e's victory over the rebels, will be read wish interest Front MAJOR-GENERAL SIFT HUGII nos; K.C.8., DATED KOONCEI, BTH MAY, 1858. "About four or five thousand mutinous sepoys from Calpee, three thousand Bundeelas, and one thousand SowarP, and four hundred Velaities, with some guns, had occupied Koonch for the purpose of opposing my march to Calpee.. Koonch i 4 a large and open town, but difficult to attack, because it is caLcealed by woods, and surrounded with gardens and temples with high walle. " The rebels had thrown up strong entrenchments for protecting the town from the Aite and Jhansi roads by which my force was marching on it. I marched here yesterday, and turned all these defences by making a flank movement to the north-we,t, and attaoking the town from that quarter with my Lace, and Major Orr's field force. "After having driven the enemy's inf st. try and cavalry out of the woods into the town with artillery fire, I stormed the town with my first brigade in skirmishing order, covered on each flank by cavalry and artillery— my second brigade and Major Orr's supporting. The Ca!pee sepoys, seeing they were on the pii.t of being cut off from Calpee, returned in a mass in that direction, and the town was in our hands in less than an hour. "I pursued the enemy with Horse Artillery and Cavalry for more than eight nrles—the former firing in t" them, the latter charging them. The artillery and cavalry were so completely exhausted by the long day's march, the intense beat, and the day's operations, they could go no further. " Among the slain are sepoys of the First, Second, Third, Fourth, and Sevenths Regiments Gwalior Con tingent, of the 12th, 32, 52d, and 56th Regiments Ben gal N. 1., and Mellidpore Artillery. " We took eight gunß, quantities of amunition, and tan ts. "I had few killed and wounded, but some European soldiers were killed, and others, as well as officers, were struck by the sun, which was 115 degrees in the shade. I march on Calpee to-morrow." FROM MAJOR-GEL SIR HUGH ROSE TO LORD ELPHINSTONE, DATED ORAIE, 10TH MAY, VIA INDORE, 13TH MAY. "Four more gene abandoned by the enemy in our possession. The inhabitants of Oraie state that the sepoye, after their defeat at Koonch, passed through there, with numerous wounded, in a state of despair, declaring that an entire battalion, the 32 1 Bengal N. 1., had been destroyod ; that now they bad no refuge but the Jumna. The enemy's loss at Koonch, according to to•day's account, was 700 killed, besides their wounded. We would have destroyed nearly the whole of them, only that the intense heat and the great fa' igue paralysed the strength of both men and horses. Our causalties were -- killed by the sun, and 47 wounded. Nu merous officers and men besides were struck by the sun, and had to leave the rauks.l' The following telegram was received by Lord Elphinstone yesterday from Pooch, via Indere, May 8, from Major-Gen. Sir H. Rose : "t As soon as Jhansi and my sick and wounded— whom I leave there—and the road from Jhansi to Goonah were secured from the advance of the Kotah rebtls, and the late Barr son of Chandairee, which made incursions on that road after the capture of Jhansi, I marched with the first brigade from Jhansi to Pooch on Calpee. I hal previously, on the 21st ultimo, sent Major Gall, with two squadrons of the 14th Dragoons aad three nine pounders on the road to Calpee to watch the movements of the enemy, and to support Major Orr, whom I had sent from Jhansi across the Batwa to Miaow to clear that part cf Vs country of rebels, stated to be there, with orders to r join me on the road to Calpee. Major Orr found no rebels at Mhow, but be yond Goorserai, near the Betwa, a little fort, Goorwai, with 40 rebels and three CADDOII, surrendered to him. I directed Major Orr to advance to the Batwa and pre vent the passage of the river by the Rajahs of Banpore and Sbahgur, and their march southward.,, The two Rajahs, leaving a portion of their force at Kotra, oppo site to Major Orr, crossed the river higher up, and have gone southwards with one gun and part of their force. Maj et Orr crossed the river at Kotra, attacked the rebels there, and took one gun. I sent Major Gall from here against the garrison of Lohare-aghurre with one gun belonging to the Rajah of Sumpter, be cause they had betrayed an outpost of Hyderabad Cavalry to the rebel cavalry in Kooncb. Major Gall blew in the gate, stormed the ghurree, and killed all the r berg in it, seventy-one in number. They were disguised sepoys of the 12th Bengal N. 1., and fought to the last. My second brigade, with the ex ception of the large part of it left for the protection of Jhansi, baying joined me to-day, I march to-morrow against Kooneb, where Tantia Tepee and the Ranee of Jhansi have concentrated a considerable force of sepoys from Calpee—Vilaitees, regular and irregular mutinous cavalry, for the purpose of opposing my march to Calpee. Sir Robert Hamilton, at my request, has written to General Whitton: that it t very - deeirable that his se cond brigade should move on and occupy the fort of Thai Bahut or Mhow, fur the purpose of opposing the Rajahs of Baupore and Shabgur. The brigade would also protect General Whitlock's rear." The first trial trip on the railway from Khandalla to Poonatook place on Saturday, the 15th inst. The train, 'containing the officials, with a small party of friends, lett Khandalla at 12.50 ; exactly seven minutes were occupied in ascending the bill, which is two miles in length. The total time occupied in going t e whole distance of 42 miles was two hours and 10 minutes—this included four stoppages, each of some duration—the train travelling from 30 to 40 miles an hour. The trial was quite satisfactory, and the line is to be opened for public traffic on the Ist of June. A fire, supposed to be the work of an incendiary, broke out at the new railway station at Poona, where the axtent of damage done amountr to be tween 3,000 and 4,000 rupees. A thunder-storm of unusal violence, accompanied by heavy rain and hail,- prevailed betwixt Khan dalla and Poona, and over a considerable part of the Deccan on the 15th inst. The day had been one of unusual heat. By two o'clock the wind blew over the burning plain like the breath of a furnace. Thunder and lightning prevailed in all directions—the electric discharges being all vertical from the clouds to the ground. During the storm the ghauts were lit up with fire-flies, doing their utmost to imitate the lightning. These beautiful little insects, by some s t range concert amongst themselves, shout all their lamps simultaneously, and the sight is grand beyond conception. On the following morning every hollow contained a pool or lake. Madras was viai‘ed on the 4th inst. by a violent hurricane, occasioning a large amount of shipwreck and loss of life.

John Hope, Lord Justice Clerk of Scotland, died at his residence in Moray-place, Edinburgh, at half-past 11 o'clock on Monday evening. His lordship had felt Poorly for some days, and on Saturday had gone to visit his coun try seat in Ayrshire, returning on Monday. He had just finished writing in the evenin g a letter to Mrs. Hope announcing his safe return, when he was seized with a shock of paralysis, after which he n e ver recovered consciousness, and expired in a few hours. The le irned lord was the eldest son of the late Right Hon. Charles Hope, of Granton, Lord President of the Court of Session, and was connected through both parents with the Hope toms famly. He was born at Edinburgh in 1794, and passed the Scottish bar in 1816. For a series of years he filled the honorary position of Dean of the Faculty of Advocates ; and in 1841, when his father retired, and the late Right Hon. David Boyle was appointed to the conjoined offices of Lard President and Lord Justice General, he was chosen as Lord Justice Clerk. In that important judicial office he presided over the second division of the Civil Court, and pract ica lly had the leading part in the duties of the Justiciary Bench, having presided at nearly all the trials of importance that have taken place in the High Court of Justiciary for the last 17 years, as well as taken his share in the business of the Circuit Courts. On the meeting of the Court of Session on Tuesday morning the in telligence of his lordship's death produced a pro found sensation. The judges all assembled in the First Division Court-room, when the Lord Presi dent intimated that, in ebmpliance with the re quest of the Vice-Dean and Faculty of Advocates as well as in accordance with the feelings of his brethren and himself, tnere would be an entire cessation of business for the day. His Lordship also took occasion to pay a tribute to the memory of the late Lord, who had, he said, distinguished himself as a most able, upright, and indefatigable to the important vac ancy Judge. With regard created by his Lordship's death, the general expec tation is that the Lord Advocate, who is usually considered to have the first title to such legal pro motion, will, notwithstanding his repeated refusal of an ordinary judgeship, mil himself of his present privilege. AUSTRALIA. (From the Sydney Herald, of 441 10.) The January mail brought such cheering news as to the improved and improving aspect of monetary affairs in Great Britain thatU renewed impetua has been given to business. The revival of commercial activity, however, is but partial. There has b , ien, unhappily, a disposition to overtrade here, which renders even a temporary pressure bazArdous. Many find it impossible to recover from this pres sure, even when, by the receipt of more encoura ging intelligence from - withou - , ;fa severity is mate rially relieved. The failure of such people involves others. Still the crisis is past. Not only may we expect a revival of confidence, and a consequent revival of commercial energy; but we may Icok for a mora healthy system of business managlment ; a greater check upon mere speculation than has hitherto existed. The complaints of ill-treatment by female immi grants ex Stebonheath, to which we alluded in our last week's "Notes," have been at length preferred at the Water Police -court. A summons was issued against the surgeon, Wm. Johns on. Rowland, but, as might have been expecte I, he did not appear. The advises from the Boonuo-Boonoo gold-field have been so encouraging that there can now be very little doubt of its richnesi. A great number of diggers have gone there, and we sitll soon hear more. It has been finally delermined, we understand, to send the "Junior" tnutiueers and the witnesses for the prosecution to New Bedford by that vessel. Due prec tutions, however, will be taken for their security, and, in addition to the crew of the vessel, a guard will be shipped for this purpose. Both houses of Parliament met on the 24th of March, but the meetings were merely formal. The only business done was to swear in the members and to elect the Speaker of the Assembly. To the latter high office Sir Daniel Cooper was again named without opposition. Ou Wednesday morning he was presented to the Governor-General with the usual formalities, and at noon on the same clay the work of the session was fairly oommenced by the delivery of the Viceregal speech. The speech of the Governor-General, which is, of course, the speech of the Ministry, has very little in it ; that is to say, very little substance—plenty of words. The single new measure of the session, in addition to such as may be found necessary for "ra.;sing the wind," is to be an electoral act. After this has been passed, Parliament is to be again dis solved, and the new assembly is to deal with all the outstanding questions. There has been a public meeting in the ball of the School of Arts for the initiation of a general subscription in aid of the sufferers by the Indian i mutiny, and never was an assemblage of the kind more earnest and enthusiastic in its purpose than this. The chair was filled by his Excellency the Governor-General. The speakers were the Bishop of Sydney, the Hon. Sir W. Burton, the Hon. Sir D. Cooper, the Rev. J. WeSt, the Rev. Mr. Cuth bertson, the Hon. S. A. Donaldson, the Rev. D. • . Woolley, and Mr. T. Btrker. The question of the steam postsl.line via Panama and the Mail Company's shortcomings has again been discussed in the Cnamber of Commerce, and this discussion has drawn forth a defensive letter from Mr. Wetton, the company's agent. Capt tin Towns has expressed in tolerably strong terms within the Chamber the feeling so general without —that the company, having obtained its ends, has deliberately broken faith with New South Wales and New Zealand. Mr. Wetton says that when the present line via Suez has been got into perfect working order the company will take measures for the establishment of the Panama line. But the colo nists will not trust their promises nor await their leisure. The mode in which their existing engage ments have been fulfilled, or rather broken, affords but poor encouragement for the future. The gene ral impression is that even the present contract with this company ought to be brought to A close with all possible speed. ____ The new Electoral Bill has been published. Al. though a better measure, it must be admitte 1, than had been looked for at the hands of Mr. Cowper, it is open to many objectionA. It is based less exclusively upon mere population than had been anticipated ; but still there is no representation of interests provided for, and the memb rs have been so apportioned as to secure a paramount and endur ing influence for the metropolitan constituencies. Nevertheless the bill is one which may be licked into a leis questionable shape in committee. On a requisition by the Governor-General of In dia, the 77th Regiment is to be sent to the latter country, instead of China, as is also a company of artillery—horses for the latter being provided at the public expense, so that they will be ready for active service directly on their arrival. (From the Times' C )rresponclont ) ME LBO U RNE, APRIL 15. No mail again. The Victoria, with our April mail, will most likely start to-morrow at daylight without any intelligence of the February mail from home. These constant delays have engaged the at tention of the Legislature, and on Tuesday night two resolutions were carried unanimously condem natory of the manner in which the contract has been performed, or rather not performed, and moving the Home Government to rescind it at once. The inconvenience to the mercantile body .connected with the trade of these colonies must be very great —sufficiently so, I should imagine, to induce them to take action in the matter. The principle of the several colonies uniting with the Home Government to pay a large premium ought to insure efficiency of service. The evil of delay to our trade is not to be over-estimated. _ _ _ _ • __ The Ministerial elections have resulted in the re turn of all the Ministers, with one double return for the Upper House, that of Mr. Henry Millar for the Western as well as the Central Province--a vacancy for the former having casually occurred at the time. Of the eight elections, three only were contested. O'Shanassy, Chief Secretary • Chapman, Attorney- General ; Duffy, Land and Works ; Millar, Trade and Customs ; and Evans, Postmaster-General, were returned without opposition. Harker, Trea surer, prevailed over his opponent by about three to one; Millar, for the Western Province, by rather a larger majority ; and Ireland, Solicitor-General, for Castlemaine, had 154 votes ; while of his oppo nents one had 9 votes and the other only 2. It is supposed that Mr. Millar will elect to ait for the Western Province, because, under the provision that one-fifth of the members of the Upper House retire every two years, his term for the Western Province is two years longer than it would be for the Central Province. The House met on the Bth, and nothing was done beyond a short explanation which custom required, but which told the public little that was not known before. Notice was given by ,the Attorney-General that on Tuesday he would ask leave to bring in a bill to alter the electoral districts, and increase the number of members of the Assembly. This bill is of itself merely formal—a peg on which to hang the schedule. Of these schedules we have had three from the former Ministry, and one sketched out, but never drawn, by Captain Clarke, formerly surveyor-general. I now send you that which was introduced by the new Ministry. The present House, I may remind you, consists of 60 members, returned by 37 constituencies. Among these there is great inequality of representation—Colne, with its 793 inhabitants, returning one member ; Port land, with 2,700, returning two members ; while Talbot, with 37,000 people, returns only two. Other inequalities prevail, but not of ao exaggerated a kind. The present schedule proposes 38 dis tricts, returning 86 members ; and the principles on which it is constructed, as explained by its author, are these :-1. It is framed on the basis of population—i.e., the average number of people to a member being about 4,500, that number has been kept in view in assigning the number of, member.' to each district. Thus, St. Kilda, with 14,207 people, will have three members—average to one member, 4,628. 2. But this cannot well be car ried out where the country is very thinly peopled ; and therefore Gipps-land, which is about nine times as large as the districts of West Bourke, East B ou rke, and South Bourke put together, will have one member, though its whole population is only 3,598. 3. Another principle kept in view has been not to change the divisions of the districts, which divisions have been fixed for registration and vot ing purposes. Thus, the old districts were sub divided into 99 divisions. These are not altered in the new schedule, but are merely re-grouped into new electoral districts. 4. Actual disfranchise ment, by merging small districts into larger, has been resorted to as .sparingly as possible, Thus, where, as in the case of the Murray boroughs, they are made to merge in the Murray district, two members are returned, though the total populatio n is only 5,800, becaus e , under the old distribution they enjoyed three members. The result is, that the new schedule departs from the population basis in only a few instances, the slight over representa tion of a few districts of great territorial extent be ing attained by a slight under representation of the large towns. By this distribution, interests, as distinct frown TO T!ZE WEALTHY AND RESPECTABLE CLASSES. THE honour of an INSPECTION o f th e following ARTICLES OF DRESS is requested by 11. J. and D.

'IAL PROBLnIS 1N AUSTRALIA, ____ Social questions have assumed no new phase, ex cept that w e e n j oy a temporary respite from the fouler features of crime. In our last summary, as in several preceding, we had to rec >rd a long list of murders and of hes atrocious offences against the person, and found it necessary to, vindicate our general social reputation against the suspicion that lawlessness was one of our ruling characteristics— a suspicion which, in the strong tendency that dis plays itself to misjudge Australis, the* many re corded instances of lawlessness not unnaturally engender. In reviewing the past month we might find sufficient materials for a sombre story, but the crinrs we should chronicle assume no dimensions larger than those that commonly prevail in all societies, and do not call, therefore, for special re cord. Such as they are, they are, to a great ex tent,social c tr o a n e d e i a t b io le nso to f the the c d o r l i o n i k v in u g nf l o ta r b tu it u s at w ely hic f h ost t e h r e . Hence it is one of our per waneh t problems how to regulate and restrict the traffic in intoxicating drinks without imposing undue restraints either upon freedom of commerce or upon individual liberty. Many pers ons ca ll for anen`l a ettn e e L n . t o u f o a r prohibitory measure s i m il ar to the M in Law, but no d emons t rat i on has-yet ben made l of such a general nsti consent of public opinion as would alone justify the adoption of that course. Some considerable time since, however,the Legislature, after matur e d e lib era ti on , an d rongly supported by public sentiment, prohibited the traffic in spirits under any circumstances on the Sunday. This law has now been in operation for the last two or three years, and although the publican interest have throughout complained of it as an unjust inter ference with their trade, the agitation has not until now reached a head. There are stilt no signs of any thing like a general dissatisfaction with the law as it is, or, indeed, of any amount of dissatisfaction con siderable eneugh to just if y any attempt to disturb the present settlement. The publicans, how ever, have gained the ear of some of our public men, and a measure is now before Parliament, in troduced by Mr. Haines, the late premier, legal isingpublic-houSes on the Sund a y duringthceerotpninaeinhg f ou o rs. The bid has not yet been read a second time, and the strong demonstration that h a s been made against it by petitions pre apnted to Parliament ought to prevail with the house to reject it. Among the coionial instituti, ns which have been established for the promotion of education and the general advancement of science, are the University of Melbourne and the Philo sophical Institute of Victoria. In connection with boils of tin se, incidents of interest have occurred during the past week. At the University there has been admis-Son to degrees. The InStitute has held its anniversary, at which the new president, Sir W. F. Stawell, chief justice, delivered his inaugu ral address, and the Governor spoke i n dignified and courageous rebuke of the too prevalent ference to scientific pursuits an d t o claims of scientific men. Coloui 1 soci-ty is distinguished by a singular combination of ceeasien 1 and fitful prodigality in the establishment and support of the institutions of learning, with a frequent disinclina tion to make e v en the slightest sacrifices for scien tific ends. In our University we have erected a costly establi s h men t , the fruits of which i t w ill be many years b e f ore we shall reap, while our Legis i ature manifested a s t range reluctance to afford even slight aid to Professor Neumayer, a Prussian savant, who brought with him very complete in struments for the prosecution of magnetic obser vations. We may reasonably hope that these caprices will prove to be nothing but the effects of t'‘e waywardness of a strong undisciplined youth, arid that as society becomes consolidated our sup port of the higher arts of learning will be more consistent and uniform.—Melbourns Argus, ~. . - 1 Now:ready, in 1 vol., 10s. 6d., bound, A WOMAN'S THOUGHTS ABOUT WOMEN.
