It is impossible for the em igrant to anticipate hat he Will most need on his passage, or what will to most useful to him on arriving at his destination ; he should, therefore, apply to DIOSES and SON, who have for many years paid the strictest at tention to the Outfitting Department, and are fully acquainted with ; v ,IY article req u i re d b y th e em i grant to any country or climate. prospects of emigrants are therefore rendered cheering by the act that every useful article in clothing for any emigrant station ! l ite world can be obtained at E. MOSES and SON'S on the shortest Lit:Mee. Whatever country the emigrant may choose, ire must have money for the journey : the economical charges for Ocitfits at E. MOSES 44( 1 SON'S leave the emigrant in possession of a sum in many in stances equal to the cost of his passage. The emigrant should never entertain the idea of furnishing himself With necessary articles in a foreign country ; that is frequently im- Possible, and when he is so unfortunate as to ma ke the attempt, the articles are unsuitable, and charged enormous . prices. Application to E. MOSES and SON obviates all these inconveniences, and fur bishes the emigrant with the prospect of comfort at a small cost. Whatever may be the emigrant's propects in reference to his future occupation, E. MOSES and SON can always supply him with suit able dress for any business he may intend to fol low, at little more than half the, price he might pay for inferior articles elsewhere. B.

" We question if ever the perils of fashionable life were more vividly exhibited than in the charmin.r romance before us. Tne fashionable life here depicted is not that false ideal one stereotyped in ordinary novels—it is the life drawn from actual being by one experienced in its changeful aspect, and who possesses a hand skilled in the lim ner', art. The characters are sketched with more th,.n usual bold ness, and are evident portraits from ord.:Mal& The music mad Lord Brandiston and the scheming Italian songstress, Mr. Leigh, the clergyman, and Sir W.

" We are clad to say, as we did of the former volume, that he, M. De Lamartine, shows on many occasions the influence of a certain gentlemanlike spirit ; he is at once more candid and more wise than to refuse to the victorious army the merit of endurance, discirline, arid courage ; he does not pretend, as so many other French writers have done, that the General and the troops that beat them were to tally unworthy of that ' accidental' honour ; and M. De Lamartine censures the absurd, unfounded, and disgraceful calumnies in which Bonaparte's blind rage used to vent itself at St. Helena on him whom he could not deny to have been his conqueror."—Quarterly Review. Vizetelly and Company, 135, Fleet•street. CAUTION.—MECHrs MAGIC STROP. " The Real Magic Strop," " The Double Magic Strop," " The Magic Strop," are all base imitations of MECHI'S MAGIC STROP. None are genuine without Mechi's name, which imitators dare not put on the spurious strop; yet, strange to say, many perfumers call ing themselves respectable, endeavour to palm this rubbish (they cost from 3d. to sd. each in Sheffield) on the public as Mechi's genuine strop, although they possess no sharpening properties whatever, but the very reverse. The well-known Magic Paste is an invaluable auxi liary to the Strop, and its renovating properties are truly astonish ing. Mechi's Razors stand pre-emineMt as well as his Table Cutlery. PATRON—H. R.

E KAFIR WAIL MONTHLY SUMMARY OF PROCEEDINGS ON THE FRONTIER. (From the Cape Monitor.) Our last summary of intelligence from head-quarters, nearly to the close of January, was published on the 3d of February, and forwarded by The mail packet Bospho rus on that day. A postscript of the previous evenitg ndded the very latest news just received, viz.:—That Butterworth Mis sion Station had been burned to the ground, and Kreli, the Trans-Kelan chief, had asked for peace (Jan. 27.) It appears that on the evacuation of that station by the 6,00 or 7,000 Fingoes with their families and im mense herds, under the escort of Lieut.-Colonel Eyre's division, the enemy reduced it to a heap of ashes. The object of the Kafir chiefs was now merely to gain time to reap their crops, and to lay in fresh stores of arms and ammunition for the purpose of renewing `operations on a more extended scale. They therefore hod recourse again to thißir abuse of British clemency and forbearance by 'messages and other diplomatic ruses, at which they are such adepts. Bukoo and Ma passa, who have been forgiven and re-adopted, are again " Smith's children," again they are " thankful for the Governor's word." "Kreli begs to be allowed to sit at the Governor's feet, and he will endeavour to collect the 2,500 head of catth, demanded for the deAruction of Butterworth, and the injury done the traders; but it would be chtleulr, as so many of his people's cattle had been taken." We believe, however, that there are not less than 80,000 head of cattle at this moment in pus teAion cif his tribe. The arrant rogue Urnhala, on being ordered to " eat up" a number of chiefs who had broken the oaths sworn on the "stick," to deliver the stolen cattle and horses, and to pay 1,000 head of good cattle, received the Go vernor's messenger and his staff of office with great re spect, slaughtering en ox on the occasion; then he col l« cis his awapaketi (councillors), and " thanks his great Father Smith for his word;" he, however, begs for time to seek the required cattle. The T'Slambie chiefs are informed, through their commissioner, that " seven columns of troops are in motion on the Amatolae," end that they must eat up all the war pariy, and hand over their cattle. The chiefs are very grateful, and if they find any stolen cattle among !heir people, will deliver thrtn up. It is to be hoped, however, that the combined move ment on the Amatolas will induce these crafty, treacher ous diplomatists to act in accordance with the promises, which we know to be thoroughly specious and hollow. The combined movement upon the Amatolas was com menced on the 26th and 27th Joouary, in seven columns, under the following officers:—" Major-General Semer met, Lieut.-o, , lonet Pole, Li eut .-C o l one l E yre, Lieut.- Colon, Mic%el, Lieut.-Colonel Napier, Lieut.-Colonel Skipwith, Lieut.-Colonel Nisbet, Major Kyle, Captain Tylden, and Captain Catty, comprising a total of about 7,000, Royal Artillery, Royal Engineers, 12th Lancers, 21, 61. h, 12th, 43d, 45th, 60th, 73d, 74th, 91st, ard Cape Mounted Rifles, and native Leviee, together with Fin goes. __ % ,4 ‘ hilst, on the one hand, the enemy received prompt reinforcem'nts (stated to be 2,000, and 400 Kafirs and Hottentots), on the olber hand, they continually called out to the troops " to go away, as they were tired of the war." Sandilli based his application fur peace on the clemency shown to an Englishman who had fallen into his hands, and whom he now sent i n, asking, "Am I not Stnith's child?" Macorno, the deepest of all these barbarians, sent in his favourite wife, with two other women, who reported that Macomo's councillors were determined to make peace, as they had no powder. " He made sure of getting peace, as he had got it every war when he asked for it." Meanwhile some of the troops were employed in opening a pass into the Amatola basin. Colonel Michel's division had reaped and destroyed 200 or 300 acres of Kafir corn, during which operations Lieutenant Armitage, 6th Regiment, was wounded iu the shoulder. Lieutenant-Colonel Pole's division had killed some of the enemy, and,eken 1,000 head of cattle (since sold for 1,0001.) and the Kat River Levy, in two engagements, bad killed 20 Kaare, and captured a few cattle and horses, altheugh attacked by a greatly superior force of the enemy, On the 6th February the Governor issued a procla mation (republished below) calling upon all burghers of seven frontier districts between the ages of 20 and 50 to assemble on the Bth March, under the commandenein chid himself, and expel the rebel Gaikas and Hotten tots from the Waterkloof Blinkvvater, Fuller's Hoek, Kat River, and the whole of the Amatolas. Had the orgens of disorder and misrule withheld that villanous teaching which thirteen months ago persuaded the duped people to disobey the Governor's appeals, the enemy would long since have been at our feet and for ever; but now we scarce dare hope for a favourable reply to this last call. Murde: and rapine still stalk upon our border, disaffection continues, and the enemy becomes more insolent and daring; the re -7nlar troops aro fully occupied in the Amatola range of mountain festnesees, and the borders are infested by prowling seurderers and thieves. At the Mancazana 10 Kafirs nod Hottentots stele from one gentleman 10 sad dl- horse:, and from another about 400 sheep—the ma i rarity of which were gallantly captured when en route for the mouueaiu retreats. A kraal at Biebeek was broken into by a party of Hottentots and Katirs, who killed 1 horse and stole 10 others. On the 29th Janu ary, between 100 and 200 Hottentots and Kafirs, near l y all mounted, attacked the cattle , Israel of Dr. J. Ather stone, jun., at Table Farm, four miles from Graham's Town, and got off with 130 head of valuable cattle; and although pursued beyond 40 mile', the murderous band escaped, having shot one of Dr. Atherstone's servants dead. Mr. P. Bertram, one of the pureuers, had scarce returned home with his party, when his own cattle were reported to be stolen by Kafirs; he immediately re mounted, and with three farmers and four servants pur sued and retook the booty. In Somerset, Field Cornet Van der Neat's son, a youth of 16, received a ball in the jaw whilst pursuieg a band of robbers. Another patrol came on the spoor of eight mounted rascals, going off with stoles horses towards Macomo's camp. At Whittlesea the enemy made a sweeping race, but were gallantly encountered and beaten, with the loss of their own horses. At Salem Mr. Lung's herd was wounded by some of these prowling savages. On the 6th of February, a general order Wa3 issued, directing that since Kafirs of the Gensli missionary sta tion, who had been fighting the whole war, and who had now surrendered, should be disarmed and dismissed, and that none, excepting chiefs or influential rebels, should be retained. 'A Gwali chief, named Dakwani, had surrendered, and been sent prisoner to King William's Town. The troops, meanwhile, experienced little, if any, op position during the destruction of the crops and kraals, Colonel Michel was proceeding most industriously in the work throughout the valley of Lenya, whilst Lieutenant- Colonel Eyre, with his accustomed energy, desolated the Keiskatima Hoek, in one part of which (the Nyumeya) the kraals and gardens were so numerous that he imagined they had not been previously disturbed. Here a herd of cattle was spied in the act of being driven off, but they were quickly pursued, and 63 head were captured by the Fingoes, with a few Cape Mounted Rifles and Levies, under Captain Griffith, supported by Lieutenant Gawler's company of the 73d, and a party of 12th Lancers under Lieutenant Durant, the enemy flying in every direction, An immense number of kraals were burned. These cattle were the personal property of Sandi lii, flying from Colonel Michel's column in the Lenya valley. Under these circumstances, the Kafir chiefs again bad recourse to diplomacy; Sandilli, Botman, Xoxo, Bonet, and Macomo holding a mee ti ng on th e 9 t h February, with the Gaika Commissioner Brownlee, and begging for a three days' truce, ostensibly tfor the purposes of consultation, but in reality to save their corn and con coct further stratagems. The rogues were accompanied by about 200 Kafirs and two rebel Hottentots, one of whom leaned on his musket, scowling on the British commissioner. San dilli said it was time there should be peace, but he pre ferred making it in the field; he would not go to a mili tary post. The 12th, 13th, and 14th of February were accordingly given to them, at the end of which time they (but without Macomo) requested a further cessa tion of hostilities "until peace is established." Their delegates, Zama and Dadu, said, that " when a child is in error, he is chastened by his father, who afterwards receives him into favour. Sandilli has erred, and the other chiefs had done wrong in supporting him: the Governor has now punished them, and they pray for peace." This humbug is too transparent. The chiefs positively refuse to surrender. Operations were accordingly resumed on the 15th. On the last day of the truce, the 14th February, ano ther officer was picked off, Dr. Davidson, 43d Light In fantry. " It eppears that some waggons which were proceeding with an escort of the 43d Regiment from King William's Town to Colonel Eyre's division, in the Ametolas, with supplies, were attacked at night at Bailey's Grave, and after firing for several hours upon the party, succeeded in shooting Surgeon Davidson and three men of the 43d Regiment. One of the waggons, it appears, struck there and occasioned delAy." We also killed learn that after the evacuation of Butterworth by the Fingoes under Colonel Eyre's escort, those of the Fingoea who preferred going to the east ward were attacked by Kmli's Kafirs near the Bashes --20 and about me n and many head woman rattlya and d taken. chiidr e beingnAu e x - tensi , e Twanvi system of depredation goes on all around.

Colonel Michel had destroyed a ll t h e crops on t h e L en ya ; then marched for Wolfv a ll ey , experienc i ng b ut li tt l e oppo sition; he thhn burn e d B otman ' s camp , and is re ported to have sinc e d estroyed the princ i pa l H o tt e ntot and Kafir camp in th e A matolas. He was o nce op posed; but his men, it i s stated, made suc h " a f u rious c harge" that the enemy fled, and did not again inter fere with him. Lieut euarn - Colone l E yre, co - o p e rating; with Lieutenant-Col one l Mi chel, on the 10th of February , separated his column into two divisi o ns. that under Major Pinokney, 73J, proceeded down the V a ll e y o f the Qumeya, and th e Li eutenant-Colonel throug h the Bomah pass. They re - un i ted at the j unc tion of the Wolf and Keiskam ma Ri vers, destroying Saudilli's kraal and that of LTrabarabe one of his councillors; thence proceeding along the delebe Kloof in view of Colonel Michel on the Lenya, and on the 18th of February re turned to his camp in Keiskamma Hoek without oppo sition. Major Pinckney capturing a few head of cattle. Lieutenant-Colonel Skipwitia had supported these move ments with the 43i Light Infantry. On the 21st Lieu tenant-Colonel Eyre had gone to the Icatu to intercept cattle fleeing before Colonel Michel. General Somerset was in the Amatola range. The reports of th e other officers bad not been rece i ve d on the 22d of Feb ruary. The amicable relationship" with B.)koo, his s on M apassa, and their tribe, i s an nousiced to extend o ver the territory from the W agon Drift over the Kei up t h at river to its confluence w ith the T'Somo, thence up t h e left bank of the T 'S omo t o ‘; the Wagon Drift; thence in a line to Butterworth, and down the waggon road to the Kei; and all troops and patrols are warned not t o interfere with that country. We wish that it may not be made a friendly receptacle for the cattle of the enemy. The neighbourhood o f the Macazana, B av i anan ' s river, &c., is stated to be still Overrun b t he enemy's marauding bands. Lieuten ant Rutherford and the party of burghers under him are reported to have killed seven or eight Hottentots on the • —eehttpltiver, one of whom is confidently stated to be the notorious Jan Pokbass, for whose apprehension a large reward has been offered by the Governor. The enemy are committing sad havoc at the deserted places. Various accounts confirm the statement that Macomo has received a large accession of Tambookie warriors in the Water Kloof, and is deter mined to hold out as loug as he can. And it is said that the Hottentots, who are kept on short commons by the Kafirs in their fastnesses, have lately been disposing of their guns to them in exchange for food. It is, how ever. difficult to obtain accurate information of what is doing at the enemy's camps. (From the Extra to Vie Graham's Town Journal, Feb. 24.) BY AUTHORITY. MEMORANDUM FOR GENERAL INFORMA TION. li ve William's Town, Feb. 21.

This territory extends from the Wagon Drift over the Kei, up that river to its confluence with the T'Somo; thence up the lett bank of this stream to the waggon drift; thence in a line to Butterworth, and down the waggon-road to the Kei. Messengers have been sent to me by the Chief Kreli to sue for peace. These I have dismissed, desiring them to tell Kreli that as he urged, aided, and abetted San dilli to go to war, exerting that paramount authority which all the Cis-Keians acknowledge, I cannot make peace with him until Sandilli and the Gaikas vacate the Amatolas and cross the Kei. The messengers are like wise to inform him that the hostilities which I directed the Brithh resident, Mr. Shaw, to suspend on the part of the Chiefs Fake, Nonese, Ludidi, Ungagnini, Joi, and others, will be renewed the moment that a single act of aggression on the part of Kreli is perpetrated. H. SMITH, High Commissioner. Head-quarters, King William's Town, Feb. 22. The Commander-in-Chief directs the publication of the only cffieial reports he has received from the officers commanding the troops in the Amatolas. The work of devastation has been carried on since the 15th instant with great vigour and energy by the troops, under the command of Major General Somerset, Lieut.- Colonel Michel, Lieut.-Colonel Eyre, Lieut.-Colonel Pole, Major Kyle, and Captain Campbell, C. M. R., nearly the whole f the cultivation of the Gaika district having been destroyed. In a report to his Excellency's private secretary, of the 21st inst., the Gaika commissioner states " has just come in from the Anaatolas. Re in forms me that yesterday Colonel Michel burned Bot man's camp, and that he this morning destroyed the principal _Hottentot and Kafir camp. Colonel Michel'a column appears to have been so well arranged, and to have gone on with such determination, that the Hotten tots appear to have made but slight resistance, and repref.cnts them as being scattered in twos and threes over the mouttains. The spirits of the Kafirs aro very low. There is a division among them. Sandilli and some of his councillors wishing to leave, while others are opposed to this measurt, and are proposing instead to make an offer of surrendering their firearms. states that some Kafirs came out yes terday to attack Col one l M ic h e l , b ut his men ma d e suc h a furious charge a t t h e K a fi rs that they ma l e o ff , and did not again interfere with him. C done! Eyre has to day gone to the top of the Icatu,' where a number of cattle which fled from Colonel Michel are gone. It is likely that Colonel Eyre will fell in with some of the cattle, as be moved early this morning. General Somerset is on the Arnatola ridge." Th e chiefs of the friendly Kafirs continue to send in small lots of Gaika eattle,*lecreted among their people. U. L. MAYDWELL, Military Secretary. (Copy.) Lenya Valley, Feb. 17, 1852.

One column, under the command of Major Pinck ney, composed of two companies of the 43d Light Infan try, two companies of the / • 3 d, the Levies, and Fingoee, and a portion of the Caval r Y, I directed to proceed down the Valley of the Qumeen. I proceeded myself with the remainder of the di v i s i on direct through the Bomah Pass. Neither column met with any resistance from the enem y. Major Pinckney and myself re-united our forces at the entrance- of the Bomah Pass, near the junction of the Wolf and Keiskamma rivers, and toge ther proceeded to destroy the numerous kraals that we found in that locality, and a nion gat them Sandilli's, if we may believe the testimony G. r the women, whom we have taken prisoners. We also destroyed the kraal of Um bambe, one of the councill ors of that chief. Having reached the Helebe kloof, whence I could see distinctly Lieutenant-Colonel Michel'a camp, I immediately crowned the heights of Mount Macdonald, which com manded equally the two k valleys termed the Lenya and the Helebe kloofs, after_ which I commenced destroying the crops in the latter loof, w h ich was very ex tensive, reaching up to the summit ot Alount Macdonald. The whole of this cultivation (with the exception of a few patches which General Somerset, i n . a conference I sub sequently had with l hen, _promised to destroy), were effectually devastated by the troop& under my command. We bivouacked on the summit of Mount Macdonald, near the General's encampment On the following ' the 17th, at daylight, w e morning, . 3 groped our way down the steep e • through a dense fog tde of the mountain the L overlooking Fort Cox, into .

'The proceedings of these columns are producing a powerful effect upon the Kafir mind. The destruction of their crops, and so eomplete an invasion and military posses sion of their country, they have never before witness: d. All that is now apparently needed is firmness on the part of the Commnder-in-Cnief, and a somewhat ex tended liberality in his Excellency, by which he may rally round hire a burgher force of 1,000 or 1,500 eti,e tivo mac. The approach of a force of this nature would produce a very material effect upon Kefirlaed, as we find that the enemy is already much dispirited. Ilk appa rent penitence and plaintive messiges cannot, huvrover, at this moment be entertained; his expulsion from the Amatola, and complete submission to all the terms that may be impeaed upon him, Inuit now be accomplished, or fifteen months of war, the expenditure of nearly 2,000,0001. of treasure, aed the sacrifice of much valu able life, will all prove to have been in vain. The boundary of the country of the chief with whom peace was made at the close of last month is now de fined. Messengers had also arrived from Kreli, who stated that a Boer commando had been down upon them, and prevented them discussing the Governor's terms. But they were sent back to say that in addition to the other conditions the Governor formerly named, he would now add, that Kreli should insist upon the GailKas erot,sing the Kei, and that until they did so, ho would neither make peace with Kroh nor Sa,ndilli. It is added, that " the messengers have gone back without much comfort." Umhala had also sent in somewhat less than 100 head of cattle, which the governor ordered to be taken back, refusing to receive less than 200 at a time, much to the surprise of the messengers. The other friendly chiefs it is said, continue sending cattle belonging to hostile chiefs, which had been secreted among their people. Wo understand that large supplies of forage corn are about being thrown into Fort Brown, Fort Beaufort, and other poste. Our active commissary-general, Mr. de Smidt, is already finking arrangements for transporting the supplies in question. We hope sincerely that this is the forerunner of an order from the Governor to give forage rations to the Burgher forces, in which case we continue to have assurances there will be a good muster, but failing such provision, his Excellency's command will become a dead letter.

YYrtrSiei r n , d — s T s o h o e n t eatftteerrs my l had aside, being tired of wa itin g for a post to England for anot d h e e a r want of sailors to man the ships, beside these letters e ere only calculated to mislead, as the face of things is completely changed through the discovery of go ld, and it now becomes difficult to conjecture what a day may bring forth. When I arrived in Adelaide in July the subject of gold mines at the Bathurst Ranges, Syd ney, was engrossing the attention of all classes, so that when our ship left we were filled with passengers to Melbourne, on their way to Sydney. Oa my arrival here in August I found that many inhabitants had left for the Turon. Immediately upon my landing, Alfred was sought after and engaged by an engineer of this place, and James soon utter entered the services of a merchant, with a good salary to begin with. I had de termined not to engage in any mercantile pursuits on say own account fur at least twelve months , and was anxious that my sons should not remain idle. Six weeks had scarcely passed over before startling news from Bal larat came to Melbourne of the extraordinary quantities of gold being found there. These tidings set the city together by the ears, and in the course of a fortnight seven or eight thousands quitted their homes and employ meat here for the gold fields. It was an animating sigh to see men cf all grades—doctors, lawyers, merchants,t tradesmen, mechanics, labourers loading up horse and bullock drays, and pressing on to Ballarat. Alfred soon joined a party of three, the son and nephew of a merchant and shipowner here, and followed in the cavalcade; at the end of three weeks he reported he was doing much better than at engineering, and that he should devote two years to the gold mines, unless he should make a fortune before that time. Being anxious to see his position, and advise with him on Thursday morning, 23d Oct., I left my house at six o'clock for Ballarat, a distance to walk of 90 miles. My first stage was to Bacchus' Marsh Inn, 36 miles, where I arrived rather tired at 9 o'clock. I had passed through a beau tiful country thus far—ono meadow, if so it may be called ten miles in circumference, skirted with trees, as level as a bowling green, fresh and verdant, having a slight convexity, like a lunette watch glass; two valleys, romantic and beautiful, with terraces, slopes, ravines, and waterfalls, which if near London would be turned to good account in magnificent public gardens. Bacchus Marsh is a rich boggy soil, containing many thousands of acres, bounded with high land of regular height, and trees upon the slopes. Lady Franklin owns a largo portion of this fertile marsh. I left the marsh about nine on Friday morning, and to save a distance I took a bye-road, which brought me upon the Pentland Hills, which at this season of the year are covered with most beautiful verdant pasturage, of various hues and shades. These hills rise one above the other for twenty miles. From these hills, until I reached the Forests of Bailee , I had the most splendid views of country I ever beheld, not to be surpassed by anything I saw in the Peak of Derbyshire. My allotted distance to walk carried me to where there was no ion, street, or dwelling, and for the first time I bushed it in pure style. I lighted II fire about seven in the evening, and made myself some tea— (by the bye I had done so two or three times before in the course of the day). I made a mimi of boughs, and a bed of dry leaves, and laid down and slept iu peace tin daylight, when I proceeded on my journey, and arrived at the gold dieginga on Saturday, three o'clock, amidst thousands of tents of various styles of architecture, and the din of noise from the rocking of near two thousand cradles. It was a busy scene, yet the greatest order prevailed. On Sunday I attended service morning and evening, at the Commissioner's tent, Goldent Polar. I found Alfred delighted with a bush life, and with the em ployment of gold digging. Oee of his party was goon to Mount Ale za uder, about sixty-five miles off, with de putations from other companies to explore sod asceriain if rumours afloat respecting the diggings there were correct. Oa Tuesday noon intelligence arrived that at Alexander they were reckoning their day's work by pounds instead of ounces. Preparations were soon made to obey this route, and by eight on Tuesday morning my son's party, with about six other parties, had their tents packed up and put on drays, and at ten o'clock we were on our way to Alexander. Our road lay through a delightful part of the country, where many of the most opulent squatters had fixed their stations. The first ob ject that interested me was an extensive lake, or as it is called here, lagoon; we came upon it after ascending a high hill, this lake forming a part of the table-land of this elevated ground. The lake is bounded by a very regular sloping bank, rising about thirty feet from the lake, and is skirted with trees regularly all round, mea suring eleven miles and a half in circumference. The next day we came to a very lofty mountain, around which our drays had to pass, rising 4,000 feet, i.e. above the level of the sea. Tired as we were, about a dozen of our party must needs ascend this commanding observa tory. I was amply repaid for all my labour in climbing this steep, for this eminence and the clear atmosphere in this country afforded me one of the most beautiful landscape views I ever beheld. We amused ourselves in our ascent with starting from their resting places huge masses of rock, some a half-ton weight; these we moved with levers, and hurled them down the steep, of above half a mile in extent, cutting trees asunder without ap parently checking their course in the slightest degree; in one instance a piece parted from one of these largest sized stones, and from its great velocity the piece was hurled into the air a considerable height. On Friday morning early we entered the ranges of Mount Alex ander; these ranges are formed of clusters of hills, of which Primrose-hill, London, and Windmill-hill, Gravesend, may be a fair representation as to size and height; but here these hills are thickly wooded. There is a great similarity in the thousands of these hills, which are spread over a space of sixteen miles by nine wide, and I have observed that the shrubs and trees are fair .indications of the nature of the soil, so that where you find stringy bark, red and blue gum brake (very similar to that in England), and the acacia, there is sure to be quartz and gold; and I cannot feel the slightest hesitation in saying that in my course to Ballarat, as also to Alexander, that I walked over and p asse d hundreds, nay, I may say thousands, of hills of the same physical appearances, which, I believe, are al l of them more or less richly stored with gold, one of which only w f et er l s a afford profitable employment for ten thousand m . b e sp a de, twelvemonth, in the present mode of labour, wrn tin dish, and cradle. I arrived at Alexander bletfore son and his party, for they had lost their way senong ranges with their bullock drays.

Quartz Unquestionably is the natural iztitrix of this M etal" — lllat in the range where I had been digging and washing at Ballarat and Alexander, the soil was invariably mimed with abund ance of small pieces of quartz, with occasionally large pieces; but gold has rarely been found in the quartz at these places, but in small nuggets in company with the small pieces of quartz; and I believe that th ese go ld hills are the result of the upneavings from sub!erraneons fi re ar e a i n t ense hear, which has released the gold from the quartz, and cast it into nuggets of endless variety of s;z3 and sleep°. Ido not think that the quartz and geld has been belched out of the boTels of the earth, as there are no appearances of depressions on the eumtnits of these hills or any appearance of craters; bat at the quartz hill I sea led to infer from the gold being still in the guava, and evidently in undisturbel, unbroken striate, that the heat in this small spot was not sufficiently intense to release the gold from the original state. The quartz and slate rocks invariably lay north and south, and I have never seen a deviation from this. These are crude and hasty conclusions; but until further data can be obtained and weighed by men of geological know ledge, calculated to determine the question in aceordmce with known laws, I shall be inclined to adhere to this theory, and equally so to give it up. I did well enough at Alexander to have induced ree to stay, but having, as I thought, a f avoure bi e opportu nity of going to Melbourne with a gentleman of a neigh bouring tent, who was theist to drive down and take me with him; but he lost his horse in the night, so we had to walk; and on my reaching home on Monday, the 10th of November, I found that the Governor had given me an appointment in the Legislative Council Chamber, which commenced its first sitting on the 11th. But for this I might have continued my gold digging labours for some time, an employment which, in my opinion, holds out as fair prospects of making money as any that I know of in this cauutry or any other, and with but as little risk. Some have done wonders—a baker by the name of Mestiter, in a month, had accumulated 2,0001. worth of gold to his share. Five sailors came to Quartz hill while I was hunting for specimens, and seeing they were not likely to do much there, asked me if I thought they could work without a licence, as they had not 80s. between them. I told them to try a hole, and get a little gold and take it to the Commissioner's tent, and get a licence, They went off, and borrowing a spade of one and a pick of another, by night the next day they bad obtained silles. weight of gold, 401. worth a piece, and they continued this several days. There are many such cases as these, indeed there need be to make up the quantity of two tons of gold, or nearly so, last week brought into the city, Many are doing but very little, but my firm impression is that no man need fear but that with a tin dish and spade of making an ounce a day, at least this I reckon to be the smallest quantity of a per son that will work. James and John are preparing to join their brother Alfred. John is to be tent-keeper, 103. a week and his board, and to have a tin dish to wash at leisure, and have all he makes. Many lads are making two or three ounces a week at this. James had a good situation with a merchant here, but when he gave notice he asked his employer his opinion of the step he was about to take. Ire replied if you ask what I would wish I should say don't leave me, but if you mean what I would do if situated as you are, I should say go by all means, it is a golden opportunity that rarely, if ever, has fallen in the way of young men before. I hear, and I believe it, that there are many hundreds of men about to return to Melbourne at Christmas, that will share upwards of a thousand p oun d s a man. S ome are spendingit already ver y f ree l y. M any hun dreds are buying the finest hors e s th e y ca n get, and give a high . price, 50/. or 601. One man has given to a Jeweller sufficient gold to make a pair of stirrups. Now, I do not ment i on t hi s because I admire this man's ambition to be famed for folly, but as a fact which must show that gold is gathered by some in great abundance with comparatively little labour. I have rather hastily, to save tho Ilero, given You a full account of my campaign to the auriferous fields' in order that you may have some idea of the physical ap. pearances of this, my adopted country, and of th e dis covery of the first mineral mines in this colony ; an d I can have no hesitation in affirming, that at present th e colony that bears the name of our Gracious Queen Victoria contains by far the richest gold mines in all the world. I have thus given you a faithful description of the state of things here with respect to the discovery of gold, but there is another side of the picture which I would, if I had time, set forth; but let me express my earnest, anxious hope, that no one into whose hands this letter may fall will think of leaving a position of com fort, with prospects of maintaining it; for if they do I feel persuaded that the privations and trials of a voyage, and the difficulties attending every new corner, will con strain them bitterly to regret it. For, depend upon it, a man needs all the support to his mind which a consci ousness of the prudence of the step he has taken in leaving England is calculated to inspire : he will indeed need this to cheer and encourage him under difficulties of no ordinary kind. Bat I must express my honest conviction that a man, especially a young man, cannot fail of success if he is honest, sober, and industrious. In England the affairs of men have their tides as well as here; but they are mostly neap tides with you, but with us spring tides, so that should a man get stuck ashore here he has not long to wait before he is sure to get afloat again. The employment in the gold fields is making every article very dear, especially labour. All the employees under Government receive fifty per cent. upon their pay in consequence, but we hear of many about to leave after the 31st instant for the diggings. About one-hall of the police have given notice to do so. The Executive Go verninent is thus being daily weakened, instead of being, as it needs just at this time, strengthened. There is a very momentous question for decision be tween the gold diggers and the Governmentnext month. Hitherto every man has had to pay a licenctefee of 30s. monthly to the territorial fund before be could search for gold. Notice has been given, that in January it is to be 60s. It is rumoured that the diggers demur at this; and I am not at ease in toy mind as to the result. The appropriation of the territorial fond is at present a great bone of contennon between the Executive and the people; and, in these times, it is exceedingly , diffi cult fur the Government here to deal with such a levia than as 10,000 armed men at Alexander, which laugh at the shaking of a spear. We need an electric tele graph to Downing-street. I am, my dear Sir, yours very sincerely, EDWARD B. ARNOLD. RAILWAY SHARE MARKETS. BRISTOL, APRIL 6.

GENERALTHEATRICALFUND DINNER. The seventh anniversary festival of this excellent land non-exclusive institution took place on Monday at the London Tavern. Mr. Maeready was to have taken the chair, but was prevented by family circumstances, and Sir Edward Bulwer Lytton supplied his place, supported by Mr. C. Dickens, Mr. Webster, Mr. Buckstone, Mr. F. Stone, Captain Chappell, Mr. Mark Lemon, Mr. Wills, &c. The usual loyal toasts having been done due justice to, on the part of the chairman and of the company, Sir E. B. LYTTON proposed the toast of the even ing—" Prosperity to this Society" —now in the seventh year of its existence. He congratulated them on the success which had attended their efforts, and attributed that success to the recognition of two principler, on which every society which had for its object the benefit uf the professors of any art ought to be feuntied. The first of these was the prig , it,le that every such society ought to embrace the objects of a a mutual benefit e arseciation ; and the second was, the „cognition of the fact that art was somathing imperishabl and universal, and was not confined to any particular building of brick and mortar in which it might be exercised. The peouli::,r feature and toerit of the as sociation the members and friends of which he w as addressing was, that they recognised these principles, that they had nothing to do with associations con nected with certain building?, endowed with exclu sive patents and privileges it was true, but from which the drama had long gone forth. The General Theatrical Fund was established not for the benefit of a professional party, but for the professors of an art, and the society must therefore endure, because it had attached itself to two things which would endure after the Pyramids were duet—art end misfortune. The toast was drunk with the usual honour. Mr. BUCKSTONE, the honorary treasurer, in the course of an amusing speech, in which he described the progress of the fund by personifying the latter and giving an autobiographical account of its life and adventures, adverted to the balance in band, and announced a prospective legacy from Mr. T. P. Cooke of LOCO/. Mr. Joliet FORSTER then proposed " The health of the Chairman," in highly eulogistic terms. The CHAIRMAN returned thanks, and proposed " The Health of Mr. Charles Dickens." The toast was drunk with nine times nine. Mr. C. DICKENS returned thanks, and expressed his great gratification at the manner in.srabia name had been received. With regard to the General Theatrical Fund, be had been so long connected with it, as one of the trustees, that he felt a difficulty in saying any thing new respecting it. In fact, the elo quence of Mr. Buckstone—and the excellence of the management, as evinced by the accounts of the cur rent year, left him nothing to say. If he could only that the managers of the society bad no sympathy with those struggling. in the lower branches of the profession—if he could only say that their treasurer was a stern, austere ITIM—(1, lughter)—,altogether a hard-favoured person, severe of countenance, and ex ceedingly difficult to approach—or if he could only , say that the institution was an exclusive one, and re quired from the applicants for relief that they should have performed something next to im possible, such as holding an engagement two or three years in the moon, or appearing in Sir Edward Bulwer's Money 200 or 300 nights—if he could say that any portion of the profession, whether dancers or singers, were excluded from the benefits of the institution, he could make to them a speech more oratorically powerful than he then bad the power to do from the want of such themes to de scant upon.—(Cheers.) Indeed, he was so utterly at a loss for a grievance on which to speak, that he had had thoughts of abandouing their festivals, and taking to those banquets sometimes held in the neighbour hood of Freemasons' Hall, where there were plenty of such grievances ready made to his hand.—(Cheers.) He had no wish, however, to indulge in any unkind allusions to the other theatrical funds, as he had many kind friends amongst the members, but he only wished to suggest the necessity of a change in their constitution with changing times ; and he thought, looking at their position with regard to this fund, no thing could do both parties so much good as a happy marriage.—(Cheers and laughter.) In conclusion, he could only say, in his official capacity, that be was extremely gratified to find the fund so well supported, and the more especially by the ladies of the profession —(Cheers)—and he could only assure them, on be half of himself and brother trustees, that any little increased aid they might voluntarily contribute to their funds, would ever be publicly acknowledged and gratefully received.—(Cheers.) The CHAIRMAN then proposed successively " The Healths of Mr. Webster, Mr. Douglas Jerrold, and Mr. T. P. Cooke." Mr. T. P.T.P. returned thanks, and assured the company that he had not intended the fact of his having made such a bequest by his will to have been known, exceptirg by his friends Mr. Cullenford and Mr. Buekstone ; but as the latter gentleman bad made it known, he trusted it might do good by inducing those who had the means, after providing for those nearest and dearest to them, to follow his example. Among the subscriptions announced in addition to that of her Majesty of 1001., were those of the Chair man, 10/. ; the Duke of Devonshire, 10 guineas ; Mr. Webster, 5 guineas ; Earl Fitzhardinge, 5 guineas; Dr. Hastings, 5 guineas; Mr. Montague, 5 guineas; Mr. Lumley, 6 guineas ; Mr. Charles Kean, 5 gui neas; Mr. Phelps, 5 guineas; Mrs. Theodore Martin (late Miss Faucit), 5 guineas ; Mr. Toole, 3 guineas ; Madame Celeste, 5 guineas ; Mr. T. P. Cooke, 3 guineas, &c. The attention of the Stewards, Messrs. Worrell, Howe, Hughes, Hoskins, &c., was beyond all praise. If their supporters lacked anything it must have been their own faults, for the creature comforts were provided in abundance. Tne musical arrangements, under the management of Mr. Tully, were all that could be desired. The vocalists included the two Misses Pyne, Miss Horton, and Mi-s Min,ford, Mr. D. Kintr, Mr. Gellge, Mr. 11:.ru , rord, Mr. liorneastle, Mr. Fielding, Mr. Mor gan, Mr. Walker, Mr. Binge, Mr. Ransford, Mr. Lawler, and Mr. Jones; while as instrumentalists manrd.

Dean and Chapter refused to give him information, and therefore he believed he was justified and correct in stating that it had been added to the augmentation of purposes never contemplated by the founder. In the course of this por tion of the defence the reverend gentleman proceeded to refer to the proceedings in connexion with similar abuses in other cathedral foundations; but was stopped by the Court, who intimated that the only inquiry was, whether the statements were false and libellous as against the Dean and Chapter of Rochester. Mr. Whiston then proceeded to dissect the various remaining portions of the pamphlet which the Dean and Chapter alleged were libellous, and upon which they relied in justification of their dismissal of him as head master, and to state his reasons and the evidence upon which ho made those statements, all of which ho contended were true; but if not so the Dean and Chapter had the opportunity of proving the contrary, which they had not. He then went through that portion of his defence with respect to the charge assigned of gravies delitum; at the conclusion of which, near five o'clock, the Court intimated they should adjourn. Mr. WHISTON then said he would be ready to proceed with the other branches of his defence at the sittings of their Lordships to-morrow (this day). The Bishop of ROCHESTER adjourned the further hearing until a quarter to ten this day.
