The advice, brought yesterday by Messrs. Marshall and Edridge's Port Philip liner Statesman are to Jan. 25, the voyage having been performed in 100 days. The amount of gold on beard is about 600,0001. The private accounts from the Mount Alexander " diggins" are of a most favourable character, and the instances of individual success were extra ordinary. From 201. to 301. per diem had been in several in stances obtained by individuals, and there were examples of small fortunes being obtained in very short periods. Labour was exceedingly scarce and dear, and will be more so when the winter sets in and again favours mining operations. A specimen of the difficulty incurred for want of water during the summer may be inferred from the following extracts of a communication, dated Forest Creek : " The want of water, a want which has been gradually in creasing in intensity, has now reached a sort of culminating point. All who still persist in digging may be set down as very persevering indeed. " Digging and washing are still going on less or more at nearly every part of the creek bed in stray waterholes, which furnish a niggardly supply for the puddling-tub and cradle. Water for drinking, a minor consideration with most:gold diggers, is to be got fit for use in deep holes sunk tor the purpose; these are generally held sacred, and woe be to the tin-disher who may be caught slipping down clandestinely to pollute the sacred well. As abundance of water for gold washing can be had within a distance of five or six miles of any part of the diggings, there is a prevailing idea in Gee long and Melbourne that the possession of a horse and cart e llacious wate r. sa . m e i distance ieseta aboutnt i c r e e l f y r ot fallacious, entirely close at hand, ' process there al of must working b e had the digger hett a r at no t everyc come me " Intending gold-hunters who wish to begin their vocation minus tg t Is h° e aeti d tfh r a y ere nxtnepoes expense neutra lise o epe f r o t efi h f t e csa s or o ftt i a l l algedrawbackp and a rTtyhi wantswouldi idea e o oe f f water thou sands of pounds weight of the precious met now snugly lying in 'the golden gullies' and .

There can be no doubt but that the c e o f l w on e y ge b e e ) ca t m e be an quanti ties of bread s and America for our consumption. However, as long as the price of wheat will keep a remunerating figure we should induce ment for the struggling farmer of this year, not to neg lect'ng his broad acres for the next, intimations to sowing th e contrary having gone about from the farmers Ives notwithstanding. Another fact is equally im pressive, that every grain of wheat that ha s b een grown e i t h e r this or last season in this colony will be required by it s population, for although Sydney has been equally blessed by a bountiful Providence, her land will be overrun with new comers as much as Victoria will be; and as for the granary of the South Seas, Tasmania, to which we have in times gone by been accustomed to look, there the crop, taken in the aggregate, does not come up to an average one. Dysentery and diarrbcaa had prevailed at some of the di gg ings, owing to the went of vegetables and pure water, and this rendered it highly desirable that further operations should be suspended until the autumnal months. A great deal of horse-stealing appears to have been going es in the colony. The raising of the gold licence to 3/. per month was caus ing great complaint. Among the items in the public journals are the following : "Water is' now selling in town at prices ranging from 2s. 6d. to 4s. per load, and in many cases the water carriers are far saucier than their customers. Within the past week from twenty to thirty sailors have bolted from their respec tive employments, and many more have notified their in tention of leaving in the course of the week. Upwards of a dozen butchers' establishments have closed up, owing to the want of hands, and for the same reason it is now a com -1 plaint to get commodities sent to private hoases from many places, too glad before to oblige a customer to send things home. A raan named Lynford returned yesterday from Mount Alexander 3001. richer than he left, after a month's absence. He states that there are many who do not clear their expenses. The men who left the brewery of the Messrs. Murphy are doing well, and have amassed upwards of 500/. each. The miners are coming down in large quantities to spend Christmas. A report was current in the city that an extensive gold field, rivalling the ' Monne' in richness, had been discovered near the Black Forest. A gold field of great richness was discovered close to town yesterday, the actual locale of which is a secret only known to two or three persons, and will, if possible, be kept a secret until such time as the discoverers reap a boun tiful harvest. Of the fact of its discovery and its richness, however, there is no manner of doubt." ....„....._ Bills o'fficliitiiie;eretaken yesterday at rather fuller rates, Paris, 90 days, 25 60 to 65 ; Amsterdam, 12 1 3 / 4 to 24 ; namburgh, 13 114 to 1 , 4 ; and Trieste, 1 2 35 to 40.

CORN EXCHANGE-WEDNESDA.Y Notwithstanding that the show of English Wheat here to-day was very moderate, the demand for all kinds, owing to the continuous imports of Foreign Flour, and the heavy stocks here, was in a depressed state, at Monday's decline in the quotations, and a total clearance was not effected. Only 670 quarters of Foreign Wheat have come fresh to band, yet the quantity brought forward was seasonably good. Fine dry qualities were held at previous rates; but all other kinds were lower to purchase. Floating cargoes were quite neglected. Malting Barley was scarce, aid quite as dear. Grinding and distilling sorts commanded very little attention. Malt, though in very moderate supply, moved off slowly, at barely late rates. We had a fair sale for Oats, and last week's prices .were well supported. Beans and Peas sold slowly, at barely the late advance. Indian Corn and Flour were a dull inquiry. ARRIVALS THIS WEEK Wheat.

ROYAL ITALIAN OPERA. 11 Flauto Magico, with its exquisitely beautiful music, and exquisitely absurd libretto, was performed here, for the first tinie in the present season, last evening in superb style. Melanie Castellan admirably supplied the place of Grisi, I h who was prevented by a cold and hoarseness from sustaining the part of ?anima, creating an especial sensation by her beautiful singing of the air, in G minor, in the second act. Madame Bellini was the Papagena, Mario the Tamino, whilst Ronconi was delightfully humourous as Papageno, and Formes as Sarastro, High Priest of Isis, grandly digni fied and impressively solemn. The magnificence of his organ in " Qui sdegno," elicited an unanimous ea core. Mdlle. Anna Zerr (whom our readers may recollect was so unworthily suspended in her mu sical functions last year at Vienna), made her re-appearan ce last evening as the Queen of Night. She sang with the same brilliancy of expression and wonderful compass of voice which enraptured the public last season. No other vocalist can give the music of the Queen of Night with such extraordinary effect as Madlle. Anna Zerr—indeed, her exe. cation of " Gli angui d'inferno" is an unequalled pheno menon of vocalization. Her reception was most cordial, and the applause she called down frequent and enthusiastic. Madlle. Anna Zerr is now an established first-rate favourite amongst us. II Flauto Magico was, like every opera at this eslablishmen, splendidly brought out. The duties of the orchestra, as a matter of course, were discharged with un qualifitd efficiency, and, altogether, a more perfect operatic treat it would be difficult, if not impossible, to enjoy. Her Majesty the Queen and his Royal Highness Prince Albert, accompanied by thir Royal High nesses the Prince of Wales and Prince Alfred, ho noured the performances with their presence, and re mained till the conclusion. Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Cambridge and her Royal Highness the Princess Mary were also present. The house was completely filled with a highly fashionable audience. ST. JAMES'S THEATRE. The enterprising and indefatigable Mr. Mitchell has re engaged the Tyrolese minstrels, who gave the first of their second series of concerts last night. They are extremely well worth hearing. A programme has been, moreover, put forward by this admirable manager which promises a com plete novelty in dramatic entertainments. A German dra matic company, headed by Herr E. Devrient, of Dresden, is to commence a series of performances in the month of June, which will comprise some of the highest productions of the German stage. The repertoire includes, besides lighter works, the .Egmont and Faust of Goethe, the Rauber, Don Carl os , and Kabul and Li e b e o f S chiller, the Emiliaallotti of Lea sing, and two or three translations from Shakspere. This experiment deserves an earnest measure of support, and we cordially trust that it may be crowned with success. Vt tar NVition. NEWMARKET RACES. (THIS DAY.) (BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.)

(From the Manchester Guardian of this day.) the Boston TIIESDAYO--.We are advised, by Boston sfeamer of the 28th tilt., that the receipts of cot ton at the American ports continue, as was expected, to be very heavy. In the last week they were 91,457 bale!, or nearly doable the quantity in the corresponding ne,e ic of last year. Th e total rece i pts were 2,607,570 bajel' exceeding those of 1851 by 585,365; and the estimate s were freely running upon a crop of 3,000,000 bel °l4 And yet an advance of lc. to is per lb. in middling qua: lities, and ic. to ic. in the higher grades, is reported at New York, with a rise also in the isoutbern market' The Liverpool market is again excited by these tfcc, Yesterday the s a l es were 15,000 b a l es; an d to-day thel ra are stated at 8,000 to 9,000, with a bias in Pr': against purchasers rather than any positive adva nce ' About half of the quantity, on eac h day, Weill fa ke d by speculators.

But the effect upon t buyers was to excite their caution and induce are, sistance to the upward tendency. It was seen that, 0 :: both sides the Atlantic, this tendency is, in n 9 3n5i ty able degree, a speculative one. occasioned by the faci 1 .. with which money is obtainable at low rates of interek;; and all parties here manifest great indisposition to Yie i r c ; to any action of that sort. Accordingly, the spinne r s have . been very moderate in their demands; eliP e l l raising their quotations only in some few articles, 8 13 0 as tow mule in the bundle, medium 40's, and 8 %1 counts of cops, and exhibiting ' merely a gen e '„,, firmness in most other descriptions. The Ge 1 1 "1; merchants have an additional motive- to con; in the b a d acoounts t h ey cont i nue t o - rece.egi as to the state of trade, and in the failure o f the sales at the Lsipsic fair, which closed at the latter el, of last week.

BRISTOL, MAT 11 . — Intelligence reached this citY thiS afternoon of a terrific coal-pit accident which occurred YT; terday m the Aberdare Valley, Glamorganshire , St ri `Vales, and by which no fewer than eighty lives have bee 1 sacrificed. This valley is completely studded Wil l ' . c i e nt pits, and the colliery in which this dreadful acc i e b, happened; is known as the Duffryn Pit, o ' o 2,r: fl ea near Aberdare. It is the property of Mr. 0 Powell, of the Gaer, one of the largest coal ovrnettl, ch the United Kingdom. The cause was the same by vin ee , so many lives have been sacrifi ce d i n t h e W e l s h colliers namely, fire-damp. It seems that at the time the accidew' occurred there were 160 men at work in the " pit, and el l ; thing proceeded in its accustomed order and regu l ar ity, w ho , suddenly a tremendou s expl os i on was heard' by i t " s t surrounding the mouth of the pit, an d the Into consternation and alarm w a s a t once excited. Th e drea st news spread through ou t th e ne i g hb our h oo d w ith the utrn°rsi celerity, and th e wor k s were speedily surroun d e d by save hundred people, consisting o f th e i mme di a t e relatives li the friends of the mi ners w h o were at wor k at th e time in pit.

After some time, however, more men were drawn out, and it was finally ascer t a ined that the death" amounted in numb er t o 80. Neither the amount of damage done to the works nor the precise cause of the accident hill as yet been ascertained, but the cause is attributed to care lessness on the part of some one or other of the men, t g they were all prdperly supplied with . Davy lamps. tis well-known that in th ese Welsh collieries the men are often extremely foolhardy, long habit has rendered them perfect'' , regardless of risk, and they frequentlyopen their lamps e ither for the sake of lighting their pipes or other purposes. TbL is supposed to have been the case in this instance, and 01 course the flame, coming in contact with the stream of Pre' damp, would instantaneously cause the explosion. The scen e in the neighbourhood may be more easily conceived than de scribed.
