IMPIERI. AMEN T - M OUSE OF COMMONS, June 16. (Conued from our Afternoon Edition of yesterday.) PE TITION6. Mr. L. HEY WORTH presented three petitions for inquiry into the causes, practices, and consequences of intemperance. SUPPOSED WRECK OF THE PRESIDENT. Is reply to Mr. H. BERKELEY, Mr. STAFFORD said it was perfectly true that the neck - of a large steamer had been driven on shore in the county of Banff, and that considerable excite ment prevailed on the subject, in consequence of its Wi....:upposed to be the wreck of the President. The AdaZialcy had directed an able and intelligent officer to :nstitute an inquiry into the matter; and he had lareftilly examined the " scantlings" of all the Milberg and communicated the particulars to all ship -builders who had constructed large steamers. The inquiry was, however, of a very pro trailed nature. Some of those builders had communi aated answers, but others had not done so. It had not yet been found that the frmbera were those of the Presi dent, but the investigation was still being prosecuted. When the statements on the subject Were con;; late he thought it would be satisfactory to mole them public. ROYAL PROCLAMATIOL'I AGAINST ROMAN CATHOLIC PROCESSIONS. Mr, KEOGH said Honeunible Members must have seen a Royal proclamation which is addressed to certain clauses in the Catholic Relief Act, and which was intro daeed into that Act from acme other very old A.ct• Thew are directed against Roman Catholic ecclesiastics wearing the dresses of their order in public. Those clauses of that Act, all must be aware, have remained . dormant since the passing of the Relief Bill. The_Go wernment of the Duke of Wellington did not enforce them; neither did the Governments of Earl Grey, nor of Lord Melbourne, nor of Sir Robert Peel. This is the • firef occasion on which any intention has been expressed of pulling that part of the Relief Act in force, A against the Roman Catholic eccle siastics. ,Mornin g journal, which is conducted with very great ability, and argeaterally devoted to the acts of the present Adminis iratioa, and supposed to be its or e an—l mean the )Horn ing Herald—says, " This is an act by which the Govern ment, in the immediate prospect of an election, dares to otilind a large class of reli g ionists. We need not say, thet Sir Robert Peel, in his whole life, never once was guilty of such a piece of manhood. And what earnest Protestants ought to do is, to take care that those who mean honestly to carry out the laws do not suffer for their m anliness and sincerity in so doing." gang reference to the immediate dissolution of Par liament, and to the observations made in the Govern ment I wish to as k the Government whether it is their organ,in intention to publish that proclamation in the Dublin Gazette, with the view of giving it t h e same effect in Ireland as in England? Te t e Hon. Member (Mr. Hume) says a proclamation has no absolute legal effect, lem sure of that, though there are some cases in which it is not so—for instance, in re gard to the proclamations under the Crime and Outrage Ast—but then it may be said this proclamation is pub lished in order to prevent the public at large being taken by surprise by a dormant Act being put into operation. I have also to ask whether it is the intention of the Government, with that manliness and sincerity for which they have got credit in the newspaper I have mentioned, to direct the Atterney-General for Ireland to prosecute Roman Catholic ecclesiastics in that country for doing that which they have been permitted to do without eb , servation or punishment since the year 1829 by every Government, or whether it is merely a set-off to the • dropping of the Maynooth debate? • Mr. WALPOLE.—Before I answer the two ques tions which the Honourable Member has put to , me, I think it right to state, on the part of th e Government, that I am no; responsible, nor is the Government responsible for any particular observe- Ana contained in any particular newspapers.—(Hear.) think it also right to state that the Hon. Gentleman has not correctly, because not fully, stated the law with reference to this subject. The statute of George the 4eti applies to two purposes—Roman Catholic eceleeiaeties wearing the habits of their order, and exercising the rights and ceremonies of that religion in other places than those of private worship— not in public places. Now, having explained this matter to the House, I will now state the reasons which the Government think justify theta in enforcing the provisions of the Act in question. First of all, the Oen. Member says —Are you going to publish a similar proclametton in the Dublin Gazette? My answer to that is, that two months ago the Govern ment heard of processions in which a Roman _ Catholic bishop took a part, and the moment we heard of these processions, which, I believe, are en tirely new—(Heer. hear)—we sent an intimation may say a friendly intimation—to the bishop, painting out to him the provisions of the statate of George IV., end expressing a hope that he had taken a part in the processions in his ecclesiastical dress inadvertently, and without any intention of violating the law; that under these circumstances we sh ou ld take no further notise of those proceedings, but we hoped the laws :would not be violated in future, because we should feel it our duty to enforce thcm.—(Cheers.) Since that •tiantwe have not heard of a repetition of the offence against the laws in Ireland, and not having heard of such repetition, we do not wish to give a more special warning than is contained in this proclamation, which applies to all her Majesty's subjects, unless occasion arise to issue a similar proclamation after a private warning has been signified to the Roman Catholic eceihsiastie to whom I have elluded. With regard to the second question he asked, whether we are going to enforce a law which he says his been dormant, I mast beg leave to state to the Home that the law has not been dormant.—(fleas.) The facts which came to the knowledge of the Gevernment were fecis of a very peculiar nature, via., that Roman Catholics were going to renew these processions along the public highways which had been done away with for 300 years. These are the very words, which were taken down in evidence ; that they were going to do this, and to march from village to vil lage with banners and emblems of their faith, in honour and in celebration of the Virgin ."nary. The precession to which the proclamation more particu larly adverts, moved for sour miles along a high road. It consisted of 150 people, carrying banners and emblems of their faith—carryiagcrucifises, with our Saviour on them, and carrying images of the Virgin Mary and the Infant Jesus, and I no hesitation in saying it did give so mach annoyance to others of her Majesty's subjects— (Hear, hear)—that we did and do think it right to pre vent a violation of the law in such a manner.—(Loud cheers.) Farther, I must go on to state that there was actually in the instance to which I refer dan ger of a breach of the peace, and lam sure both the House and the country will think, in the words of the proclamation, that whilst we are re solved to maintain for every member of the Roman Catholic religion the undisturbed enjoyment of his legal rights, and the full and free exercise of his re ligious proceetinge, we ere determined to see, at the tame t ti t ile, that the law is observed, and if it be not observed, l ea that circums t ance w ill necessar ily d raw d own pn n...hel:tent on thos e w h o a f ter thi s warn i ng s h a ll wilfully 7 l iell t it, and mast oeeicusly, instead of allaying reli polls differen ces , increase them meterislly, and in the resat terminate. in breaches of the peace.—(Che.‘:2.)

The deed of resignation executed by him had been con sidered by the law officers of so uncertain a character that they bad recommended that the object should be accoloplished by means of an Act of Parliament. This Bill only proposed to make this resignation valid in order to enable her Majesty to erect a new bishopric in New Zealand. He did not think that any one considering these circumstances could offer any serious opposition to this Bill. :dr. HEY WORTH objected to the Bill en the ground that it would involve the levying of rates is this country for the payment of the salaries of Now Zea land. B. should move the adjournment of the debate.

The ceremony of leyieg the foundation-stone of the asylum for the deserving widows of soldiers, which is to be erected in memory of his Royal Highness the late Duke of Cambridge, was performed on Tuesday by his Royal High ness P r i nce Albert, in the presence of a highly distingui s h e d company, including a great proportion of ladies. Amongst the number present we noticed the Marquis of Abereora, General the Earl of Strafford, the Bishop of Winchester, Lord Frederick Fitaelarence, Lord Frederick Paulett, General Sir Howard Douglas, Colonel Bentinek, Colonel Trevelyan, Hon. Colonel Liddell, Hon. Captain Fielding, Colonel Rowland, R.A , Mr. Twining, Mr. Pow na ll, M r. C. Challier, Mr. Hals . - well, Mr. Ferrer, 847. His Royal Highness Prince Alhat, accompanied by the Marquis of Abercorn, and attended by the Hon. Colonel leouvetio and Colonel Grey, arrived about half past three o'clock, and on alighting at the gate was re ceived by the Mayor and Corporation of Kingsto n , the Bishop of Wincheester, the chairman (Sir H. Douglas), the (Lenity-chairmen (Colonel Liddell), and the com mittee and officers, who preceded his Royal Highness to the place where the stone was to be laid. Immediately on the entrance of the procession the Royal Standard was hoisted, and the band of the Coldstream Guards, under the leadership of Mr. Godfrey, commenced the National Anthem. His Royal Highness was received with great cheering, which he several times graciously acknowledged. The company having arranged themselves in their places, the children of the Kingston schools chanted a psalm, arranged for the occasion; after which the Bishop of Winchester advanced, and offered the prayers appointed for the ceremony. Sir HowAliD DOUGLAS then addressed his Royal Highness, requesting him to lay the stone. In the course of an able address the Gallant General congratu lated the friends of the institution on the high auspices under which it was being commenced. After reviewing the rise of the institution, and describing the charitable object to which it would be devoted, he paid an eloquent tribute to the memory of the late Duke of Cambridge: eteanerecatedw—h In allusion to the ground having been given by the present Duke, he said that on this appropriate site,' the offeringo of the filial piety of a son worthy in every way eta his illustrious father, the Cambridge Asylum would . trions.on the Cambridge estate, and under circum-` of 100 th e u doPart which did honour to the living as well as ed.

THE SUN, • The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said he understood the Hon. Member commenced his speech by thanking the Hon. Gentleman who moved the adjourn ment of the debate for the opportunity which he had given him to make a second speech on the Bill. He ap pealed to the Speaker whether that was not an evasion of the orders of the House. The SPEAKER said it was an evasion of the strict letter of the orders of the House, because when a mo tion for adjournment was made the Member who se conded it could only strictly speak on the adjournment. whereas the Hon. Member had made a speech on the Bill.—(Hear.) The inconvenience of the practice had frequently induced him to call the attention of the House to the orders, because if it were allowed, any Honourable Member, by getting a friend to move either an adjournment of the House or of the debate, might make as many speeches as he liked. He hoped the rules would be considered, with the view of obviating the inconvenience. Mr. ANSTEY said the Chancellor of the Exchequer had misrepresented him. — ( Cries o f " Order.") 110 until they did he b a e r or relieved e n v o e t d , from but their ember -11. ras.ment.—(A laugh.) He was obliged to deliver his t M he e y mbe w l :o s uld mig n h o t t former speech in a thin House--(A laugh)—and he wished new to give the real history ct the case, which had not been properly stated. As to his being out ef order, no man had taken greater liberties with the forms of the Houie, fo r th e purpose cf making speeches over agaln• than the Caancallor of the Exchequer, both tow and when be was in opposition. Had he not a great respect for the dignity of tne House, the manner in which the Chancellor of the Exchequer had inter rupted him would hsva induced him to follow a very different course. Sir J. PAKINGTON said, though this was not a Government Bill, the Government thought it was ex tremely desirable to pass it. Mr. HUME considered the amendment of the Hon. Member was a very appropriate one, as the days of Par liament were numbered, and this was not one of those questions which required immediate consideration. The House then divided, when there appeared— For the adjournment of the debate ... 31 Against it - 110 ••• ,Lajority against the jonrnment ... —79 The House then divided on the main question, when ;here appeared— For the second reading Against it Majority for the second reading ... —77 The Bill was accordingly read a second time. VESTRIES BILL. ... ... 111 Sir DE LACY EVANS moved the second reading of this Bill, which he explained was to put the parishes of St. Giles's-in-the-Fields and St. George's, and St. Margaret's and St. John's, under tho operation of Hob house's Act, from which they had originally been ex cepted. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said he could not agree to this Bill, because, in the first place, being in troduced as a public Bill, it was confined to the parishes of St. Giles's•in-the-Fields, and St. George's, and of St. Margaret's and St. John's, Westminster, and ought therefore to have been brought in as a private Bill. He felt it his duty to move that the Bill be read a second time this day six months. Mr. T. DUNCOMBE defended the Bill as being in consonance with the general spirit of legislation. Mr. HENLEY thought that the object of the Bill would be better accomplished by a private and local Bill. Mr. HUME having been one of those who had con curred in introducing the original Bill affecting metro politan vestries, explained that the omission of these parishes had been an utter mistake, and he thought they were entitled to the remedy which they sought by this Mr. WALPOLE said the Bill was quite un necessery. He thought it was much better for the two parishes to adjust their own differences, and bring in a local Act. After a few words from' Sir DE LACY EVANS, Mr. BROTHERTON said he was decidedly of opi nion that the objects desired by this Bill ought to be ob tained by means of a private Bill. The House then divided, when there appeared— For the second reading 26 Against it Majority The Bill was accordingly lost. MR. FEARGUS O'CONNOR. Mr. Secretary WALPOLE brought up the report of the Select Committee appointed to inquire into the pe tition presented by Miss O'Connor, praying for th e re lease of her brother, Mr. Feargus O'Connor. The Committee had reported that the facts contained in that petition were all true, and that Mr. O'Connor had been examined by two medical men, who certified him to be of unsound mind, and a proper person to be confined. The Petitioner stated that she had made ar rangements for the reeepthau of her brother at the private asylum Chiswick, and that she had signed the requisite a er fo t for that purpose. Miss O'Connor and Dr. Take had given an undertak ing that Mr. Feargus O'Connor should not be removed from that asylum without the consent of the House. The Rigkt Hon. Gentleman concluded by moving that the Hon. Member for Nottingham be dis charged from the custody of the Sergeant -at-Arms, with a view of being removed to the asylum of Dr. Take. Mr. BUIUE hoped that no time would be lost in enabling the Hon. Member to be transferred to the cus tody of Dr. Take. Mr. WALPOLE said that arrangements had already been lands ;or this purpose. Mr. GOULBURN inquired whether the undertaking which had been given was to Extend beyond the present session? Mr. WALPOLE said that the undertaking did not, of dowse, extend beyond the present Parliament. The Parish Constables Bin was withdrawn. CORRUPT PRACTICES AT ELECTIONS (No. 2) BILL. Mr. ANSTEY moved that the House go into Com mittee on the Bill. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL moved that th e House go into Committee on the Bill this day three months. The Bill was a most extraordinary Bill in its provisio ns , an d never wou ld h ave a tt a i ne d it s present stage exee pt by inadvertence on the part of the Govern ment.

(From the London Gazette of June 15.) India House, June 14, 1852. The following dispatches have been this day received at the East Indic House:— THE GOVERNOR-GENERAL OF INDIA IN COUNCIL TO THE SECRET COMMITTEE OF THE EAST INDIA COMPANY. (Extract.) Fort William, May 3, 1852. We have the honour to transmit to you a copy of the further papers regarding Rangoon affairs. In these documents our sentiments are expressed in warm, but not exaggerated, terms; for, in truth, no ianguage could be employed too strong to convey the praise which is justly due to the gallantry, the fortitude, the patience, temper and discipline which have been ex hibited, during the several operations on the coast, by all branches :of the combined force, and by those who have led them so well. We beg most respectfully and moat earnestly to CDM.• mend the services of these brave men, according to their sevoral ranks and recorded merit, to the gracious con sideration of her Majesty the Queen, and to the appro bation and favour of the Court of Directors. We have, 8;.1., DALHOUSIE, F. CURRIE. J. LOWIS. NOTIFICATION. Fort William, April 28, 1852. The Governor-General of India in Council having failed to obtain redress from the Court of Ava for injuries which had been inflicted on British subjects, in gross violation of existing treaties, was compelled to declare that reparation should be exacted by force of arms. To that end an expedition was immediately prepared and dispatched to the coast, in the hope that a blow promptly struck against the Burmese Power might possibly lead to a concession of the just and moderate demands advanced by the Government of India, and might thus avert the necessity for engaging in extended and costly war. The Governor-General in Council has had the satis faction of publishing, for general information, dispatches which announce the success of the expedition, in the capture of Manahan, in the destruction of the formidable defences constructed along the river, and in the assault and occupation of the fortifications of Rangoon. The Governor-General in Council cannot employ terms too strong in expressing his unqualified approbation of the brilliant service which has thus been performed, and his gratitude to those by whose joint exertions it has been achieved. His admiration is due equally to the perfect cordiality and concert with which navy and army have acted together; to the gallantry which has been conspicuous in the field; and to the fortitude and patience with which all have endured, without a murmur, a fierceness of climate whose deadly influence is unhappily too well attested by the number of those who have fallen victims to its effects. The Governor-General in Council especially desires to offer to the Commander-in-Chief of her Majesty's Naval Farces in these seas his warm acknowledgments of the ready co-operation and of the very effective aid which his Excellency has afforded to the Government of India by the powerful squadron under his command, whose operations he has so ably directed, and in whose services he has borne so distinguished a part. To Lieutenant-General Godwin, commanding the forces in Ava, the Governor-General in Council begs to tender his most full and cordial thanks for the manner in which, by his intrepidity, his energy, and ability, he has brought the military operations of the force to their present successful issue; and to congratulate him upon having thus won fresh and higher honours upon the same scene on which he formerly gained so much distinction. The Governor-General in Council has great satisfac tion in publicly rendering to Commodore Lambert his sincere acknowledgments of the promptitude with which he gave his assistance to the Government of India, of his constant exertion on its behalf during a trying ser vice, and especially of the prominent share he has now borne in the destruction of the river defences ; thus materially facilitating the movements of the squadron and the ultimate success of the attack. The best thanks of the Governor-General in Council are due to Brigadier Elliot, cemenanding the Madras Brigade, and to Lieutenant-Colonel Reignolds, who, after having taken a part in every operation of the troops, has as sumed the command of the Bengal Brigade, from which illness, which the Governor-General iu Council regrets, has removed Brigadier Warren. The Governor-General in Council is happy to record his appreciation of the essential service rendered by Captain Lynch, the senior offieer of the Indian Navy, to whose ability, judgment, and discretion his Excellenay the Rear-Admiral has borne his testimony on this occasion.. And his Lordship in Council, at the same time, is de sirous to mark his sense of the services of Commander Menorah, of Commander Fiihbourne, by whose aid the Government has largely profited, of Commander Tarle ton, Commander Luard, Lieutenant Rice, R.N., Captain Neblott, of the Hon. CompanT'a steamer Phlegethon, and of Surgeon %linter, whose personal exerti ons have been severally-com men d e d by his Excellency. Tne Governor-General iu Council has to add his marked acknowledgments of the valuable assistance af forded during the attack on the land defences of Ran goon by Lieutenant Dorville, R.N., and the naval bri gade under his orders. The Governor-General in Council has farther re marked with gratification the distinguished conduct of Captain Brooking, of H. C. steamer Prosorpine. His Lordship in Council wishes to express his warm appro bation of conduct which has elicited the applauae both of the Admiral and of the General who witnessed it. The conspicuous tntry of Major Preser, command ing the Engineers, and his indefatigable exertions since the expedition was resolved upon, more especially in the field, command the highest praise, and the best thanks of the Supreme Government. To Lieutenant-Colonel Foord, commanding the Ar tillery; to Major Tureen and Major Reid, of the Bengal Artillery; to Meier Montgomery, of the Madras Artil lery; to Lieutenant-Colonel Coote, of her Majesty's 18th, who has been severely wounded; to Lieute nant-Colonel Thomson, of the 40th Native Infan try; to Lieutenant-Colonel Johnson, of 26th Madras Native Infantry; and to Major Lockhart, of her Ma jesty's 8 1 0th Reganent; to Captain Mayhew, Deputy Adjutant-General, whose value is specially remarked; to Captain Allan, Deputy Quartermaster-Ge neral; to Captain Call and Captain Smith, Brigade Majors; to Lieutenant Robinson, Deputy UOlll - of Ordnance; to Captain Gillespie, who led the assault at Martaban; and Captain Campbell, of her Majesty's 18th; to Captain Randall, commanding Madras Sappers and Miners; to Captain Chads and Lieutenant Lambert, Aides-de-amp to the Lieutenant -General; the services of all whom have been noticed with approbation by General Godwin, the Governor-General is Council begs to offer his earnest thanks. The Governor-General in Council has to offer his thanks to Lieutenant-Colonel Bogle, Commissioner of the Tenasserim Provinces, for the valauble aid he ren dered to General Godwin in connexion with the attack upon Martaban; and his Lordship in Council particu larly desires to record his approbation of the energetic and successful exertions of the Commissioner in giving effect to the preparations of the Government for ensuring, as far as possible, the health end comfort of the troops to be employed upon the expedition. Captain Latter, who has discharged his functions hitherto to the entire satisfaction of the Government, has added to his claims by the duty which he well performed in the assault on the Pagoda at Rangoon. Not only to the officers he has thus specially named, but to all the officers, to the non-commissioned officers of whatever designation, and to the soldiers and sailors of the force, the Governor-General in Council desires to convey his true and hearty thanks for the alacrity, the endurance, the bravery, and good 'conduct they have displayed during the several operations iu which they have been engaged. The Governor-General in Council deeply laments to know that our success has not been achieved without the sacrifice of valued lives. He deplores the loss of Major Oakes and of Brevet- Major Griffith, of the Madras army; of Lieutenant Arm strong, of her Majesty's 51st Regiment; of Lieutenant Donaldson, of Bengal Engineers; of Lieutenant Doran, of her Majesty's 18th, who nobly perished in the front of the assault; and of the Rev. Mr. Baker, chaplain of her Majesty's ship Fox, mad of other brave men, who died in the performance of their several duties in the service of their country. It shall be•the first care of the Most Noble the Go vernor• General in Council to bring the conduct and ser vices of the naval and military forces on the coast of Bartnah under the most favourable notice of her Majesty's Government and of the Honourable East India Company. By order of the Most Noble the Governor-General in Council, C. ALLEN, Officiating Secretary to the Government of India. Lieutenant. General H. Godwin, 0.13., Commanding the Forces in Ava, Arranan, and Tenasserim Provinces, to C. Allan, Esq., Secretary to the Government of India. Rangoon, April 22, 1852. Sir,—l have the honour to advise you, for the infor mation of the Governor-General of India in Council, that everything remains quiet in this neighbourhood. There era various cc7onnts of the defeated Burmese army, under the late Governor of Rangoon, and they tend w the conclusion that he may be retreating up the country with a very smolt force. .The inhabitants of the villages arolind visit Rangoon, and bring in various articles for sa►e. The old inha bitants aro partially settling themselves in the vicinity of the Old Town,./mi groat numbers of Burmese are in our employ as coolies. It has been reported to me that a detachment of the 26th Madras Native Infantry, in garrison at Martab. - -n, tied marched against a post eczupied by the enemy, which it most spiritedly routed on the 11th inst., without loss; and that en the 14th the pickets at Manahan were attacked, and the enemy beaten off with great spirit by the same corps., commanded by Captain. Welch, at a very trifling loss. All this will, I have no doubt, subside on the fall of Rangoon becoming known. I sincerely regret having omitted to bring to the no tice of the Governor-General in Council, in my dispatch of the 18th lust, how much I am indebted to Mr. Crisp, jun., for his able assistance in conducting the array through very' difficult ground, on its progress to the Great Pagoda, which he p er f orme d, un der the fir e o f t h e enemy, with great coolness and courage. • "I rejoice greatly to say the wounded are doing very well. The skill, the labour, the atteutioa, and the bu inanity of Superintending Surgeon Montgomerie, and of the medical department generally under him, call for the warmest approbation of the Government. Major Fraser, Commanding Engineer, has been inde fatigable in his exertions in his own department, and in deed everywhere, to get this place into some order and cleanliness. He has requested me to bring to the notice of the Governor-General in Council the gallant conduct of Second Lieutenant W. S. Trevor, Assistant Field Engineer, who was the first on the ladder, and there wounded, at the White House stockade, on the 12th, as also of Lieutenants Craster (Bengal) and Mayne (Ikladraa) Engine2rs, who were very forward on the same occasion. My iteatest pleasure, however, is to bring before his Lordship in Council the admirable conduct and temper of this force—its discipline mid regularity of demeanour are unexceptionable.—l ha; e, IL Genwiti, Lieutenant-General Clmmanding Provinces. the Forces in Ava, Arracan, and Tenasserim the witnesses who swore to her identity were altogether mistaken, as she had not left her home on the evening in question; but a communication having been subsequently made to the police, which left no doubt as to hts own complicity iu the transaction, he was aho taken into cuitoiy. A little boy, named 4enry Austen, twelve years of age, the son of a butcher in lioxton Old Town, was now examined, and stated that th e p r i soner , f or s ome time past, had been occasionally employed by his father. who kept a cash account at Messrs. Currie's banking-house. He had been repeatedly urged by the prisoner to supply him with some blank cheques from his father's cheque• book, which was kept in the shop, and about a month since he was induced to tear out two of the leaves, which he handed to the prisoner. The two cheques now pro duced were the same he had furnished him with, and to the best of his belief the signature attached to them was in the handwriting of the prisoner. Poliee-constable Jeffecys, 165 N. stated that the se cond cheque, which was also signed " W. Davidge," but the amount of which was 201. 10d., had been accidentally picked up in the street by a person who had lodged it at the station-house, end it would in all probability form the subject of another charge. The prisoner, who declined any defence, was remanded for depositions. THE AUSTRALIAN GOLD DIGGING. The Vimeira, Captain Neathby, passed the Isle of Wight on Saturday afternoon, from Sydney, New South Wales, which plsco she left on the 10th of March, consequently bringing the late3t news from the gold regions. She has brought about 15,000 ounces of gold. The Blackwell and General Hewitt, merchant-vessels, had left three days before the Vimeira, the former having 58,000 ounces and the latter 18,000 oz. on board. Among tho pss.engers by the Vimeira are Messrs. Leslie and Mr. Fairfax; the latter is editor of the Sydney Morning Herald, and has come to England to make extensive purchases of machinery, type, &0., and to engage a number of com positors and pressmen, which is rendered necessary in consequence of departures to the diggings. The c ountry was much distressed for labourtrs; although it appeared there was no difficulty in getting sea men for the Vimeira, at N. p-r month. Money was realising generally eight per coat., the banks charging six. Some 15,000 persons had left Sydney for the diggings, whilst there bad been an influx of newly 20,000 people at Melbourne. The Vimeira signalled at noon on Friday the Herald, 26, Captain D.-nnam, and the Torch steara-vessel, in company en route to the Paci fic; also the Nile Indisman, outward bound. (From the Sydney Morning Herald of Meech 6 ) THE SPATE OF THE COLONY. Our friends in England will naturally be anxious to hear, by ships now on the eve of departure from Port Jackson, hotv wo are getting on under the new circumstances which have befallen the colony, as we were naturally anxious to hear hose th e first intimation of those circumstances would be received by them. Both parties have been somewhat disappointed in their expectations. On our side it was generally thought that the tidings of our gold fields would in England be received with considerable excitement; they appear to have been received with consider able sang froid. On their side it was generally thought that the discovery would throw the colony into universal confusion, and put an end to all the usual pursuits of industry; no such results have as yet been witnessed. Perhaps neither took a suffi ciently comprehensive view of the facts connected with the other. On our side it ought to have been remem bered that the news would reach England just as the public mind had become exhausted by the prolonged excitement of the Great Exhibition, and was for the time in a state of nil admirari on which scarce any thing could make an impression. The people had witnessed all the glories of the world centered in a single focus ; and so dazzled had they been by the resplendent vision, that the glories of the Austra lian Ophir were comparatively dim in their sight. On their side it ought to be remembered that when the dis covery was made, the colony was in a state of general and almost unexampled prosperity, and when, conse quently the temptation to relinquish a bird in the hand for the sake of two in the bush was not likely to be very maddening in its effects. It is not quite ten months since our auriferous trea sures were first brought to light; yet within that brief period the colonies of New South Wales and Victoria have each shipped about one million's worth of gold, or two millions' worth in all. And when it is considered that this has been the produce of unskilled mining, of labour untrained to the peculiar employment, un taught by science, unsustained by capital; that, in our own colony at least, the number of diggers has ever borne the most insignificant proportion to the ex tent and richness of the field, and that every day new regions of auriferous deposit are fbund in almost every part of the interior, to the north and to the south, as well as to the west; our friends at home may form some esti mate as to what Australia is to achieve hereafter, with a population lees inadequate to the work she has to do, with the lights of science and experience to guide her operations, and with the aid of capital to give fair scope to her energies. And we rejoice to add that this million of gold pro duced in New South Wales has been gathered with out any serious detriment to our other interests, and with the least possible disturbance of public or der and tranquillity. Our corn-fields have still been cultivated, our , sheep have still• been shorn. Our metropolitan city remains a busy scene of com merce, and stately buildings are rising up in her streets. Oar mining operations have assumed the character of settled industry ; our gold is collected without bustle or -confusion, and securely carried to market by the regularly-established Government escorts, at moderate expense to proprietors; while the quantities brought to town and shipped for exportation are reported in the newspapers, as well as those of any other of our raw productions. The admirable order which has all along been maintained at our diggings, not by military restraint, but by the good sense and moral rectitude of the great mass of the diggers them selves, is indeed a just cause of pride to the colonists, and ought to encourage thousands of our fellow-subjects at home to come over and help us. We need their help. Our flocks and horde are in creasing, while the labour market is exhausted. Wages have consequently advanced at rates averaging on the whole somewhat about 30 per cent. Wo have ample employment for m an y th ousands of emigrants provided they bo men who really give a good day's work for a good day's wages. We do not want idlers, neither do we want any more of that swarming class of young gentlemen who can do nothing but sit on a stool and handle a quill; of these we have always more than enough. But persons accustomed to hard work, whether mechanical or rural, and persons having money to invest, whether of large amount or small, will find in New South %Wales a finer opening than any other part of the world presents, or than was ever before presented. Let them remember that for mildness and eelubrity our climate cannot be surpassed; that our soil is capable of producing all that man requires for sustenance and most of the lux uries which he prizes; and at the time our gold fields were discovered the population of less then 200,000 souls possessed above 100,000 horses, 1,500,000 horned cattle, and more than 8,000,000 sheep, yielded an annual in come of 600,000/4 and exported of her own produce or manufacture to the extent of 1,100,0001. per annum, in dependently of her gold. Coupling these facts with the great fact mentioned above, that in ten months we have shipped a million's worth of our new found product, the fruit of peac6ful industry, and the earnest of a. still brighter future —our friends in England must admit that our shores have strong attractions for all who think it better to emigrate than stay at home. (From the Sydney Morning Herald of March 10.) The quantity of' gold officially advised to have been transmitted to Sydney on the sth instant, from the Ara luen, Braidwood and Be!l'e Creek diggings, and expected to be received here under escort this morning, is as fol lows : From Aralnen cz. 1,345 12 0 ~7 84 3 0 ~ Bell's Creek—. 520 16 9 Oz 2650 10 9 The gold re ce i ve d b y the mail of , yesterday from So iala (tho Turon) was 173 ounces. TASMALIAN GOLD FIELD. (From the Hobart Town Courier.) The fact of the discovery of gold at Fingal has created considerable excitement, and the particulars which we aro able to furnisn are all of a confirmatory character. At an early hour cn Saturday placards were affixed to the walls announcing that a stage coach was laid on direct for Avoca, within a few miles of the "diggings." Additional informaion was received by the Government yesterday. An individual from this X city who has been up reports that the utur , at efforts to extract gold which have yet been ued amount only to prospecting, and thinks teat if operations were resorted ;3‘ to as at Monnt Alexander, and diggings carried to some depth below the surface, it would be obtained in large quantities. Several practical men have gone up by the mail. The number of police sent up are a dozen petty constables, in charge of two sergeants. ;5 ‘ OPIIIII, Melton 3,—A very good examplo has been set diggers generally at Uphir, by the grand operations of ' the party belonging to the Messrs. Samuels and M'lratosh, . under the highly creditable superintendence of Mr. Benjamin White. That gentleman has, with his as sistants, so directed the labouring portion of the party that now the hole which so very lately was an extensive basin of water is nearly dry, and but for the under ground filtration the small body of water in the pump ' well could easily be thrown up in less than an hour. This must now be called " the golden basin of Ophir,," for its yield of the precious metal will, it is anticipated, ,s s. be more than tho proprietors of this claim anticipated a v% 7s week ago.

Yesterday Mr. Broughton was engaged for nearly two hours in the investigation of a case in which a very lady-like person named E l i za M arriott, living at No. 5, Ampton-street, Gray's Inn-road, and a respectably attired middle-aged man, named ler'iLain Henry Coles, described as a corn factor, residing at 319, Oxford street, were Charged with being concerned in uttering forged cheq ues. The inquiry excited a considerable degree of interest, and the court was much crowded during the proceedings. Mr. Thomas Webber, a butcher, in an extensive way of business at 74, Edgeware-road, on being sworn, said —On Saturday evening last, at nine o'clock, I saw the prisoner Ma rr i ott in my shop, and I was told that she ha d requested change f o r a c h eque , but that it was not given to her. s he went away, andi on Monday morn jog she cam® again, when she produced a cheque for 10/., made p aya b le to me, and purport i ng to be signed by George a customer of mine, and was drawn upon told her I c ou l d not cash it then , b ut that she might ille°elve bank il E 2 1 " Sir Claude Scott and Co.

Yesterday morning she came once more, which I look e d at, an d t h en to ld h er I did not thick it Was when at my reques t s h e handed me th e c h eque , in Mr. Howell's handwriting. She said, " Don't give cue t h e money un l ess y ou are per f ectly satis fied that it is a ll correct; " upon w hi c h I told her to sit down while I took the cheque to Mr. Howell, an d gave her to understa n d t h at if I found it all r i g h t s h e should have the money. I repaired to Mr. Howell's house, 22, Oxford-terrace, but he (Mr. Howell) not being at home, I returned and again told her that I believed the signa ture was not genuine, when she produced another cheque upon Scott's, for the same amount as the former, with Mr. Howell's name thereto, and payable to Mr. Collard. Both the said c h eques were dated June 11. I asked her where she lived, and she replied at 5, Ampton street, Gray's Inn-road; and on my inquii ing if she had presented the last-named chsque to Mr. Collard in order that she might obtain cash for it, she answered that she had done so on Saturday, but that he had not got enough by him at the time. Upon my asking her from whom she received the cheques, she said that she had them from a man who was to met her in front of Jay's mour ning warehouse, Regent-street, at seven o'clock in the ermine, whom she had met on Moeday end the Satur day before. I asked her if she had any objection to go with me to the banking house, to which she replied that thither in a cab. On my she had none whatever. presenting the cheques they 'were at once pronounced to be forg,eries. We accordingly proceeded female Serg afternoon I was sent for to the bank, and the yesterday Williamson, 30 A, said—At four o'clock given into my custody by Mr. Scott, one of t h e firm. (Witness here went into particulars similar to those related by Mr. Webber as to the female having acknowledged , to him that the cheques were given to her by a man.) I and Sergeant Sanders took Mar riott to the station-house, an d , premises for a considerable time, and having done so, we kept Sergeant t oner was Merriott's lodgings, where we found she communicated to us I went with her in a cab to the Golden Cross, Charing-cross, where Coles, who was sitting in the parlour, was pointed out to me as the man I was looking for.

At the station-house he was searched, and upen him I found a Watch and chain, a purse con tainingv. 103. in gold, a threepenny piece, and a coun terfeit shilling. Tae prisoner Marriott was brought out r oom, and asked if she knew him, when the man from wheel she had the glad that what she had stated in reference to the matter had turned out to be quite true.

She further said, that en her first acquaintance with Coles, some weeks ago, at g Charing-cross, while it was rain ing hard, he politely offered her the use of his umbrella, which she accepted, and hence had arisen a subsequent meeting.

The opinio n of the prosecutor and M r.
