The PROSPECTITS. tl 'Preeress and Improvement of the British fisheries are a object, in which all classes of the community are interested. nth Wealth and energies of the United Kingdom are, in other chan sib • ra ptaiy developing our great industrial resources, but our it h e s tles remain in the same state in which they were twa centuries ;tea ur increasing population requires that every means that art I t ," science can devise should be adopted, in order to procure the 1 1 7, sries of life as abundantly and cheaply as possible ; but, 1, 1 2 1 _11h it is well known that the seas which surround the British 1 0 ,7 !et 'm with abundance of lishAyet the supply of that article of is t tlways uncertain, and its rice, generally high, is often ex- Ti; ant ` s t " . e 1, 11 itish Fisheries, if conducted on a proper system, and on a s t ;,`,7, of sufficient magnitude, are capable of yielding an abundant .of wholesome food. There is no branch of our national in at:trr /o which steam-power can be more advantageously and pro ,`ll Y applied. Fishing banks as yet untouched, because they 4., 4,1 be reached by the present sailing craft employed in the 1 11 " c 'e. may, by means of steam power, be made available for a vastly acr e' tsed and more regular supply of fish. 11 8 'd therto our fisheries have been prosecuted only by the coast ~,,ut, : man in sailing vessels at particular seasons ; and the principal ;;h a a?t Of the fish caught has been cured for export, or sent to London, the demand may be said to be almost unlimited. the adoption of steam power, the regular and daily supply of this article of food, in the freshest state, would be extended to the 7` 4 elpal ports in the United Kingdom, to be thence conveyed by all to the cities and towns of the interior. I jt is admitted by the trade that the - quantity of fish is not half of :'at which might be sold, provided the supply were regular. it is, ~ L aerefore, propose] to establish the Krittsh Steam Fisheries Com t'ituY,. for the purpose of combining capital with skill, and, bymeans welled steam-vessels, to develope in a manner that has never been ;;llaPlaod before the inexhaustiple resources of the sea, and to con ),'Y the fish caught or purchased with speed and regularity to the "tat markets. AS a c ommercial enterprise this company presents undoubted ad h,4ntages ; and, while it will give constant employment to a great t' r allY seaen and boys, in addition to those already engaged in the ~„a d e. it is m calculated that it will, after defraying every expense, se -"re to the shareholders a return of from 20 to 25 per cent. on the 'AMC expended. The Directors propose to commence with a capital of 100,0061., in t hanes of 101. each (with power to increase), and to place steamers 44 the different ports on the coasts of England and Scotland, nearest u) the fishing banks in the North Sea, and afterwards to extend the o rations of the company to foreign fisheries, as the success of the tU ldertaking may justify.

PUBLICATIONS. MI?. ROEBUCK AT SHEFFIELD. SHEFFIELD, SEPT. 3. This evening at half-past seven - o'clock, a crowded and influential meeting of the constituents of Mr. Roebuck took place in the Music-hall, the object being to present him with a testimonial for the services he has conferred upon the country by his conduct in Parliament both be fore and during the late war. The large hall was crowded in every part, and on the platform we noticed the Master Cutler (Mr. Mappin), the Master Cutler elect (Mr. Wostenholme), Mr. Phillips, Sir Arnold Knight, Aldermen Dunn, Hoole, and Barker, ane various other influential gentlemen. On the entrance of the hon. member he was greeted will great and general cheering.. The MAYOR (Mr. W. Fisher) having taken the chair opened the proceedings with the following address : Gen tlemen, fellow-townsmen,—l feel very proud in }amine the opportunity of meeting you on so interesting an occa sion as the present. Your worthy member has represented our borough in Parliament for about seven years, and I be Bove that during that time the inhabitants generally have had much cause to be satisfied with his conduct. There are some who have differed with Mr. Roebuck upon vari ous topics, and yet at the same time all must have admired the consistency, the perseverance, the independence which at all times have characterised his conduct. The cautious but firm way in which he has expressed his opinions, the determined manner in which he has pursued everything that he has undertaken, the manner in which he has met his constituency, and the mode in which he has answered all questions that were put to him—the fearless and can did manner in which he has done all this, has recommend ed itself to the inhabitants of Sheffield generally. (Cheers.) I feel persuaded that great confidence is reposed in him— a confidence which is manifested in the testimonial we are met to-night to present to him. He is well worthy of the honour that is intended to_ be conferred upon him. (Hear, hoar, and cheers.) The amount of that testimonial is not to bo considered as a recompence for his services —(cries of " hear, hear," and cheers)—but it is to be regarded as a manifestation of tho grateful feeling that exists on the part of Sheffield, and of many individuals through out the country, towards Mr. Roebuck for his con duct generally. (Loud cheers.) I have heard persons, who differ from Mr. Roebuck in political opinions, remark that the House of Commons fever ought to have been without his presence for the length of time that he was not there. (Cheers.) I must say I was somewhat astonished when I heard that expression, but it showed that those individuals had a high opinion of Mr. Roebuck, though they differed from him. (Applause.) The conduct of Mr. Roebuck during the recent inquiry into the state of the army before Sebastopol —his determination to pursue that inquiry in the face of difficulties, opposition, and ob loquy, mint have commended itself to your warmest ap provel. (Loud cheers.) And although the result of that inquiry was not so beneficial as many hoped it would be, yet that it brought to light a great number of important acts, which will have a very important influence on the future of our army, lam quite satisfied. (Applause.) I am sure you will with me feel very glad that Mr. Roe buck's heahh is I'e-established to a very great extent; that the blessing of Providence is attending tho means which have been used to that end, and that we are now Permitted to see him in a better state of health than he has been in for some time. (Cheers.) I shall not detain you further, but shall now call upon William Fisher, jun , Esq., our late respected mayor, and chairman of the Roe buck testimonial committee, to present the testimonial. (Loud applause.) W. Fes lIER, jun., Esq.— Mr. Mayor and gentlemen,— About twelve months ago a meeting was lei I in Sheffield, for the purpose of rocoguising the Parliamentary services of Mr. Roebuck, extending over upwards of twonty'years, and also of securing for this borough some permanent memorial of his connection with it. (Lout applause.) Mr. Mayor, as you have well said, we do not seek to reward Mr. Roebuck for his services—his national services. I be lieve ho has, in the gratitude and confidence of his fellow countrymen, and that he will have in the admiration and respect of posterity, a sufficient reward for his labours. (Cheers.) As a satisfaction to our own feelings, we got up the testimonial to him, not as a member for the borough of Sheffield, or any otherlorough—not as a member of the liberal party, or as a member of any other political party of the state, but as a faithful, fearless, and able member of the Parliament of England—(cheers) —a Man whose voice is always heard with effect when the honour or in. terests of England aro perilled by the undertakings of any government or any party. We have done this, Mr. Mayor, by subscriptions, which have been given by men of every class end every party in this borough—by subscriptions which have been volunteered from his fellow members of Parliament of every section of politics, an his follow countrymen in different parts of the country. (Cheers.) We have thus secured the moans for procuring for the town of Sheffield a permanent memorial of the honourable connexion which has subsisted, and which I hope will long subsist, between him and this borough. (Cheers.) We have had from him good service, and whilst on our put it has been honourable to us, we have respected his independence. (Cheers.) And I am happy to say that our excellent treasurer, the Master Cutler, after providing for this memorial, has a surplus in had of eleven hunch el guineas, which I am requested by the subscribers to ask Mr. Roebuck to accept, with their best wishes for his health and happiness and continuance amongst us. (Pro• tracted cheering) lam also requested to ask Mr. Roe- i buck to sit for his portrait, which, when finisheel, is iu tended to be -placed in some public hall in Sheffield, to which the future inhabitants may point with pride, as a memorial of our connexion with such a man as we now have in our representative of Sheffield. (Prolonged cheer ing.) Mr. Fisher then made the presentation. Mr. ROEIIIICK then rose, which was the signal for pro tracted cheering. Silence having been restored, he said : - Mr. Mayor and gentlemen—l have to thank Sir. Fisher for the manner in which he has discharged his trust, and you for the way in which you h ira expreseel your opi nion of the humble iedividael who now addressee you. I have a bad subject for discussion, for it is diffi:ult for a roan to say anything of himself ; nor would I attempt it, but that I think I may draw a moral from the tale I am about to unfold. What, unconnected as I am with the great parties in the State,' has recommended me to your notice ? lam unconnected with the great families of the kingdom, undistinguished by wealth, unknown to fame (Cries of " No, no.") Yes, I say ; for when I began I was unknown to fame. (Cheers.) Others have commenced life possessing these advantages ; I had none to aid 1113 ; still I have won the approbation of my fellow-countrymen. Proud am I to have done so; but I ask myself what have been the means ? It is not talent, it is not name ; it is not wealth ; but it is steadfastness in the path which I chalked out for myself. In 1832 I had prepared myself for public life. I had then formed my opinions. I com mitted them to paper, and I printed them, and to them I now adhere. (Cheers.) That which I said in 1532 I say now. It is my thorough steadfast adherence to the prin ciples which I then expressed which won for me the els ' probation of my countrymen. (Cheers.) Now, let me point out to you some of the peculiar circumstances that have attended my career, political and public as it has been. Going into Parliament unknown, unsupported, and only recommended by that s3alous friend of the people — the late Mr. Joseph Hume--(cheers)—l determined not to ally myself to either of the great parties that then divided the State and the kingdom. I saw then predominant in power the great Whig party of the realm, and on the opposi tion benches I saw diminished in number, cowed in spirit, but still powerful in their hold upon the country, the great Tory party of England. To neither the one nor the other, though I might then be said to be a young man and a poli tical adventurer, did I determine to adhere. I was neither Whig nor Tory, but went into the House of Commons deter mined to advocate that which I believed to be for the good of the people. To that rule I have adhered, and no man can say now that lam either Whig or Tory. Other men, greater in intellect than Myself, have gone into the flotilla of Commons, but have invariably joined one party or the other, They have won for themselves power and consi deration, but it has been by sinking the individual in the party to which they swore allegiance. I have succumbed A NEW AND Impor.TANT DISCOVERY IN THE SCIENCE to neither, but have represented the people of England, OF MEDICINE. and thus have won my way through the House of Coin- Part oEllacien de Pa r i s .

CHARLES HENRY LIDDERD ALE, Actuary. - _ lr • , e , \ • ,ONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 5, 1856. the Ministry. I hope that in so doing we shall place before ourselves some great point to be attained. At this moment you must all be aware that there is in the country a certain apathy about political matters. When I began political life all the world was alive about theßeform Bill. I recol lect being carried, as it were, upon the shoulders of the people in opposition both to Whig and Tory upon that oc casion. Bat now, if au angel of light were to carne down with a reform bill in this hand, I belieVe the people in this country would receive him—not indeed with disgust, but with apathy, and would say, " That is not what we re liaise at present." What is it, then, that you require? I Hill tell you. You have seen England within the last two years engaged in a dreadful struggle with one of the great powers of Europe. You have sent from your shores an army if gallant men such as England never sent from its shores before. That army you beard was dwineling away after victories such as usually diatioguish the English soldier. You saw that there came upon him all the evils of the cli matd—of want, of mi - ery, and yin heard a fearful tele of horrors respecting the misery of the army before Seinsto pol. You aslied —Why did this occur ? I will tellyon why. Because the Government a this country was composed of men sought only in the ranks of the two gnat, parties ef the State. The aristocracy governed the country, and tiny go verned it ill. Now, I say that what you desire is to see that all the powers of the State be well administered. You cannot obtain this except through the Reuse of Commons, and what rwould press upon the minds of the people is, that the only hope of reforming the administration of the country is through reforming the Commons House of Parliament. To this point my earliest endeavours were directed, and my endeavours will still ho to the same end but they will not be so direct. The Administrative Reform Association admits, I believe, of an appeal—if I may so express myself—to the opinions of the people upon this important matter, and, I believe, that 'through them we may be enabled to make a reform in the administration of this country by reforming Parliament. Sense time ago when that body wig first c llected together there was a be lieft'nat they could attain their end without at all affecting the House of Commons. Isteho havop my life in that House, who have seen its influence upon the government. of this country, believe that nothing can be done but through it,. My endeavour, therefore, through you, will be to in fluence that House, that the house in its turn shall influence the Administration. Well, then, we must bsgin with you, gentlemen ; it is not simply the House of Commons, it is the constituencies of the kingdem that want reforming. (I-fear.) Let me say a word about yourselves. You are called ripen by the law of England, it is said once in seven years, but practically much oftener, to elect members of Parliament. Whom do you elect? I judge by the re sult. "Oh !" but lam told, " the people of this coutit , y don't elect Parliament; it is only a ;elect body of the people who do so." (Hear, hear.) That may be so, but that se lect body is a very apt representative of the whole, and if they be not capable of electing Men who ought to represent you, I very much fear that the people th !tn . /selves will ho at fault in that matter Now, what occurs ? I sun speak from observation, and Tspenk of a town, a manufacturing town. a now borough, called into evidence by the Reform Bill. I will tell you what has occurred under my own observa tion. You have returned men to Praliainent who, the mo ment they have got un to London, have forgotten you. I don't speak of Sheffield, but'l am streaking of the consti tuencies of this country, for I don't wish to point to any individual town, more especially to Sheffield, with which lam now connected, which I represent - , and in which I have many intimate friends. Ido not therefore oprly what I am now saying to shomm, but, it does apply generally to the conAitnencies of the menufasturine interest. You have chosen men who have gone to Parliament, and the moment they have entere I it they have been overwhelmed —they have been utterly destroyer!, as it were, by the in fluences to which they have been subjocteral Mr. Se-and-ao and his wife go to London ; he denies to go into society, and Mrs. So-and-so takes her piece as the wife of a member of Parliament. I recollect a story which affords a demo: il lustration of the influence of society on members of Parlia ment. When Lord Melbota no's a dministration was coming to an end, the majorit h.s it could obtain were very small, and any man who stood out., who had screplesat diet time Islam() of importance, and threlg are certain man who can not obtain importance in any other way. (Laughter.) Those men suddenly found themselves beset with scruples, not koowing which way to -vote. Thereupon they were immediately fastened by the whippers-in, as they are c died, of the party. ( Laughter.) There' was one gen tleman who came from the manufacturing districts, who was suddenly beset with scruples. When coming events cast their shadows before, which was wittily said after a majority of 4 in favour of the ministry—when corning events showed that they were going out, he discovered that his vote was a matter of the very greatest importance, and he gave the whipper-in to understand that he was unde cided how ho was .to vote. That was a very significant symptom, and the whipper-in knew what it meant, and immediately set about to see how he could gain Mr. So and-so's vote; and how do you think ho gained it? By offering him a place? No, that was not his weak point ; but by sending him an invitation to the Queen's hell. (Laughter.) The man from that time was quiet ; he was bound to the party, and accordingly helped to swell the majority from 4to 5. But does not that show the social influence brought to bear upon the House of .}rismorts ? You do not know that house as well as I do, and I confi dently say that the only way to test any man is to send him to that house. I have seen mon blustering on the hustings very violently, who told the people what they were going to do, who, when they cline to th it house, were like sucking-doves (Laughter.) Their roar became a most mellifluous chant, and they would do anything to gain the good wishes an 1 good feeling of that house. They were no longer your representatives, they ropresmted only their own feelings and wishes, and wore the subjects and slaves of th -3 aristocratic element of the house. I would beg you in your individual voting capacity to hear that in mind. Choose such mon as are, not rampant on the hustings, but able to resist all the temptations that will besot them when they go into the House of Commons. lila every difficult part they have to play—a gams that requires groat courage such as you rarely fuel to enable a man to withstand the tempta tions. It is not even a man intellectually endowel who can do it raw tya, for I have seen men of the very first ability sue cutnhto the social influenc 230 f England. I have known men, before whose intellect I would bow to-night or to-morrow, who have been the slaves of the aristocratic domination of this country, and I would ask you, in your individual ca pacity as voters, to point out that man. I now speak not only to you but to every voter in the kingdom who is not only enabled by his voice to advocate your opinions, but by the steadfastness of his principles to resist those tempta tions to which he will be subjected. (Hear.) There are many questioes that will rise up in the coming time. We are now in the condition described, I recollect, in a very pepnl Li- novel called " Laurie Todd," where some men are represmted in a boat gcing down a river. The Yankee says ; " I don't like Aida almighty stillness." The river ran rapidly, it ran smoothly, but the Yankee foresaw what was coming, namely, that there was a little way ahead a cataract down whit!). they would immediately descend, and he Reid, " I don't like this almighty stillness. I say at the present time I don't like this almighty stillness." We are far too quiet ; for I believe that we aro on the very preci pice of groat changes both abroad and at borne. (hoar, hear.) I cannot believe that mankind, having arrrived at that point of cirilisation and education at which it has, Europe can long remain subjected to the despotism which now overwhelms it. (Loud cheers.) God forbid that the strug ;les of mankind since 1789 should issue only in the base despotic= I now see overshadowiug Europe. I be lieve in inkind will rise up, and I hope that they will do so. (Cheers.) I hope they will rise up sgainst the despotism that now weighs them down; but in so rising they will imperil much for themselves, and at the same time do much for you ; for be assured that no revolution can take place in Europe but will find somewhat of an echo, and exercise an influence, iu England. Not that we are not a happy people. We are unlike the rest of Europe; here pudic opinion reigns supreme. (Cheers.) In Europe can you find the Titans newspap w? No. Can you find a plain speaking man ? No. Should not Ibe shut up to-morrow ? (Hear, hear, and cheers.) Well, then, what is good for England is good for Europe. (Hear, hear.) I believe that the great mission of Engl and is to perpetuate, not only its generous institutions, but the opinions of its people. We are the reigning people of the European continent, and I will be bold to say that the opinions we entertain, the ex ample we set to all surrounding nations, will w a ll say s effect, and that they will pto England and will say, why can't we be like Englishmen ? And they can be so. (Hear, hear.) The Italian, the Frenchman, the German, the Hungerien, the Bohemian,. the Pole—all can be like Englishmen. (Cheers) I believe, gentlemen, that the time is coming when the great nationalities of Europe will rite up as one man agsinst the oppressive despotisms which now weigh them down. Bo you prepared for that change. You may set an examp le to the world at lar g e by your steadfastness in well-doing, by your obedience to the law, by your self-goverement ; showing that liberty is safety, a (c rt h il e that erir th l e hoanyleydsetitny foreayon o itia u tOO o i l nd is h long. (Cries t (e ro d u e g s h o l f ib , ety. , r No, no.") I had to return you my thanks for your kindness to mo, but the theme has led me on. (Hear, hoar.) I have told you what I foresee. I may be wrong as a pro phet, but you cannot be wrong in adhering to the advice which I give you to keep your eyes open; to be watchful of the conduct of the Government, to show yourselves worthy of your free institutions, to be obedient to the law, to send those to make laws who are .worthy to make them, to be in all things what you have been ever since I have known you, to be free men. (Cheers.) ' And with this I can promise you that as long as God shall give me health, I will do as I have done hitherto, fearlessly follow ing out that which I beli eve to be for your interest, re gardlessie n r a cheers t i io n d o . s fa it,Tihhet ehrmeet ing, bon. te eht .. had ono duty more to perform, which was to render his iy g , w gentleman o ichf resumed alli having v party i n gs hissubsided, or personal b s isdeeadt amidst llei c soe ic n tah s g i e c a l thanks to the Mayor, and to ask the meeting to thank him for presiding.

We take the following from the summary in the Melbourne Argus of June 9 : "THE COLONY OF VICTORIA. "The mail by the Joseph Tarratt closes at 5.30 this after noon, and that . by the Kent at 11.4.5 to morrow morning ; and although the interval since the Royal Charter left is short, and there is not much additional to report, the un certainty of another opportunity equally good induces us to compile a brief summary of our condition and progress for transmission by vessels, one of which is second in re putation to none among the racers of the deep: "THE GOLD. "The weekly escort returns continue to show thet the yield of our goldfields this year is greatly in excess of that of lut year.

' 5,623,1001. " We have had, since the Royal Charter sailed, another of those instances of individual success which are occa sionally occurring on our gold field s . A party of three miners, working in the Black Creek, at Tarradale, at a depth of about 12 feet from the surface came upon a solid lump of gold, weighing 541 b., with about 80 ounces of smaller nuggets in close proximity. The total value taken from the claim was a little under 3,0001. "The gold fields lately discovered on the Nicholson river in the Gipps Land district aro b3ing steadily worked. The gold has recently been submitted to assay by Mr. Birkmyre, the assay master to the Pert Philip and Colonial Gold Campany, and the result is reported es N. lows " Gold from the Nicholson River, Gipps Land, melted and assayed for the Unisin Bank of Australia, Melbourne B:lore melting, 7oz. s,lvvt.

" A correspondent supplies us with returns of the pro ceeds of 12 parcels of quartz from Anderson's Creek, a gold field 16 miles from Melbourne. Toe parcels weighed in the aggregate 3 4 tons, from which 443 ounces of gold were obtained. Our correspondent writes as follows : "Permit mo to give you a few details about various par cels of quartz from Anderson's Creek. which have been crushed from time to time at the Port Philip Foundry, by Dr. Otway's patented crushing mill, and retorted in the usual manner. The following parcels have come through my hands, and therefore I can speak as io the correctness of the results:— ton. cwt. qr. oz. dwt. .. 1 17 0 yield 11 5 2 0 0 „ 16 16 . 2 0 0 ~ 30 0 100 „ 1 1 .. 6 0 0 „ 144 0 .. 2 3 0 „ 30 0 0 10 3 „ slicer. ~1 17 0 23 10 .. 2 0 0 „ 9 0 .. 1 2 1 „ 15 7 .. 7 0 0 „ 06 18 .. 3 5 1 „ 60 13 30 15 1 „ 413 10 " At the older fields the systematic washing of the soil and the quartz mining are being steadily prosecuted. Tbo difference in the Triutities sent down weekly is not to be taken as an indication of any increase or decrease in the yield. In truth it rather shows the prosperity of the great body of the miners, who hold or realise as the mar ket varies.

" The monthly returns of the Immigration Board, so far as they aro completed, give the following as the additions by sea lance that period : Arrived. Departed. Net Increase. January 3,991 2,557 1,437 February March 2,637 2,301 ' 33 April 32,789 8,317 4,4 - 2 " In the month of May, the official return for which is not yet published, the balance of immigration over emi gration was about 1,600. ‘` TRADE AND COMMERCE. " Notwithstanding that trade is in a great measure sus pended, in consequence of the continuance of wet weather and the all but impassable state of the roads, the present cmdition of the trade and commerce of the colony is one of undoubted health. The imports of late have been in excess of the demand for consumption, but they have been in the main - of a description that will not suffer deprecia tion from being stored until a more active demand sets in, or until an interval of dry weather so fir improves the roads as to admit of communication with the several inland centres of our mining population. We may repeat that never at the same perio.l of the year have the stocks of the country shopkeepers been so light as they are at this present season, and that, although trade during the next three months cannot be expected to be very active, yet the increasing consumption of a well-to-do' mining population will be sure to secure a fair amount of business to importers. The first impression produced by the pacific news brought by the Champion of the Seas was that prices of imported goods would have to give way before the pro spects of increased speculation consequent on the with drawal of large sums of money from prosecution of the 'war. This uneasy feeling has not, however, produced any depressing effects. It is believed that with the restoration of peace a reaction will be imparted to emigration, and that the experience of 1853 will not be lost on shippers, who will be cautious of again pouring in upon the Aus tralian colonies goods in excess of the increasing consum ing powers of their inhabitants. " The general tone is, therefore, one of confidence. The resources of the colony have shown a wonderful elasticity. The deficiency of 400,0001. in the revenue which the Go vernment were forced to meet by advances from the banks has gradually disappeared, and the Government will have at their credit a surplus of nearly double that amount when they meet the Legislature of the colony, soon about to be assembled for the first time under the new constan t tion. " In actual progress the producing interests are making steady strides ; manufactories are springing up, not only in and about the capital, but also on the goldfields, for the purpose of supplying articles which have hitherto been imported ; soap-works, candle-works, fiour-mills, and breweries are being established wherever consumption calls for them. The land is being opened up for cultivation, a greater breadth th3n ever being laid down in wheat and other cereals, and dairy farming is extensively carried on. When immigration once more sets in the country will ab sorb with ease any number that is likely to arrive.

"The result of the London February wool sales having become known has had the effect of strengthening the market and creating a demand on this side, and a rise of , fully ld. to 2d. per pound was established on the wools offered for sale this day. It would be well to draw atten tion to the causes of the rise in the London market, which are twofold-1, The attendance of numerous foreign buyers and the lowness of stocks in the hands of manu facturers, both in England and on the continent ; and 2, the important fact that there has been no period when the wool and woollen trades were in a more satisfactory and healthy state. There is no accumulation of stocks, and consequently manufacturers have been enabled to increase :.he price of their fabrics even iu a greater degree than the cost of wool. The belief, therefore, is that wool is one of the staples likely to maintain its value. "The tallow•market has been inactive during the past week, the tranra.tions being confined to purchases on ac count of the trade, and for shipment to Melbourne and New Zealln I. Offais have been made of several parcels for shipment to South America, but holders have not accepted them. The English market entirely depends upon politics, which tend towards peace; yet there are few who would be surprised if the negotiations were to fail, in which case tallow must advance in price. Again, if peace —so much to be desired—takes place, it is doubtful if the market would be materially affected when the lowness of Stocks is considered, the requirements for the continent, and List, not least, the accumulation supposed to he in Russia. and the neutral ports is ascertained to be far less than has been stated. " Sheepskins remain firm. " hides.—The market well supplied, and prices fully maintained. " Shank bones, horns, and hoofs have been sold at an advance on last sales. "Stocks and Stations.—The favourable result of the February wool sales has bad the effect of increasing the demand for sheep properties, and good stations, not over stocked, would meet with ready purchasers at advanced prices. In store sheep and cattle there is nothing doing, as parties are awaiting the result of large flocks and herds, now en route to Melbourne, before making fresh purposes.

It appears somewhat inconsistent, until chemistry steps in and explains the mystery, that notwithstanding the enormous amount of iron extracted from British ore, Briton is still obliged to import iron in considerable quantities from Russia and Sweden when any especial purity is required. The explanation is simply this —our .country is rich in coal and its derivative coke, and Sweden and Russia are rich in wood charcoal. Coke is a very impure fuel, and charcoal is very pure ; hence, though we produce cast iron, which is only another term far impure iron, readily enough, the problem of turning out good malleable iron in large quantitieP, by means of coke or coal, is not a little difficult. Now, looking at the impurities which exist in cast ;iron, and by the presence of which it differs from wrought iron, we learn that they are combustible, and the processes of iron manufacture adopted for the conversion of cast into wrought iron have reference to burning these combustible impurities away. Hitherto, until Mr. Bessemer devised his pro cess, the combustible materials in question did not ad mit of being burned away without the addition of other conabu-tibles, either coke, coal, or wood charcoal, as the case might be. The new process depends for its efficiency on the well-known chemical fact that many substances, though actually in a chemical sense combustible, can only be made to burn when a liberal supply of a supporter of combustion is furnished. Mr. Bessemer, therefore, takes a quantity of molten cast ho se and by transmitting through it a liberal supply of at mospheric air, up a process of combustion at the expense of the contained impurities, and by following out this operation to the end, it is as sumed that all extraneous combustible matter will be burned away. There can be no doubt concerning the beauty of the theory on which the process is founded ; there can be no doubt of the actual demonstration of the fact that impure molten iron thus treated is purified readily to a considerable extent. This we consider de monstrated by the production of the reeult which el r. Bessemer calls semi-steel. But is it demonstrated that the final remnant of impurities can be removed by a con tinuation of the process ? We think not. Without stating that it cannot be done, there are difficulties in the way which suggest themselves to the mind of the chemist, and cause him to look with some anxiety to the final issue. The fact must net Le c incealed, that the efficiency of Mr. Bessemer's process carried out to the final issue of malting iron absolutely, or even com mercially pure, depends on the maintenance of a condi tion of such amount of fluidity that the atmospheric air injected shall readily penetrate the mass and bubble through it. Is this condithn susceptible of being effi ciently maintained to the vi ry end ? Every ene conver sant with the properties of iron must bo aware of the cir cumstance that in proportion to its purity so is its infusibility ; therefore the air injected by Mr. Bessemer's process will have to find its way through a molten mass which continually assumes a condition of greater solidity. We would be far from desirous of damping the energy of an inventor, of denying the theoretical beauty of the invention, or its peactical compete nce, so far as demonstration has already been ma de ; neverthe less, would it not be well for the inven tor to test the final issue of his process by referen ce to the quality apd quantity of the iron purified to the furthest compe tent:. of this process 1 IF, indeed, not to say it n che mically pure, but iron commercially pure, to the extent of the best Swedish k r Russian, be capable of pro:lnchon as the result of the new process, the coneeponces of the discovery will be gigantic) ,e''''' Nudi and Military inteilip,.7ence. In consequence of the order that has been given the Secretary of State for Wer that the whole of the married non-commissioned officers and [rivets soldiers belonging to regiments eel depots at the Provisional Battalion, Chatham, shall be supplied with separate rooms, apart from the unmarried sailers, some exten sive alterations and improvements are in ,progress at Chatham. The whole of the quarters now occupied by the officers now belonging to Chatham Barracks, form ing the Terrace, at the Provisional Battalion, are to be given up for the use of the pay sergeants and sergeants of the depots at Chatham, each of whom will be sup plied with two rooms. This, alteration has been made by order of his Royal Highness the Commander-in‘Chief, who, on the occasion of his recent visit to Chatham, directed that, instead of new buildirge being erected for the married non-commissioned officers', they Should tsko possession of the officers' present quarters, an order hav ing also been given for a large suite of buildings near the fortifications at Frit:cif - Henry's Bastion, tuba: occupied exclusively by the officers belonging to the Provisional Battalion.

The Wasp, 13-gun screw steam- donp, Commander Stirling, left Sheerness on Wednesday last, at 10 a.m., on a trial trip, under the superintendence of Mr. George Blaxlarel, civil engineer, of the dockyard here. After proceeding a short distance it was found that steam could not he procured to bring tie engines up near her proper maximum, for want of tufEcient theught in the engine room and stokeholes. Throughout the day's trial they cauld not procure more than 411 b. pressure, giving a speed of 4 knots and 3 l °tbs. The only alter= alive now lett (as proposed by Mr. Blaxland) is to lengthen the fennel, and introduce blast locks in the stokehole to increase the draught in the funnel. Her engines worked most satisfactorily when there was steam enough gene rated to keep them in action. The Eurotas steam-frigate, on her way to England, put into . Gibraltar on the 24th of August for coals, and was to sail for Portsmouth on the 26th. She has been obliged to depend on her sails for the most part, on ac count of the leaky state of the boilers. There was a good deal of fever on board when she first entered the Mediterranean, but she is now quite healthy. The screw steam-ship Sanspareil, 70, Captain Astley, C. Key, was placed in doela'at Devonport on Monday. The crew of the iron screw steam store-ship Hima laya, Captain Benjamin P. Priest, were paid off at Devonpott on Monday. She is to be recommissioned.

Ti e Warrior estivictaah'e, at Woolwiah, having been found in an extreme state of decay, it has been judged desirable to commence forthwith the removal of a por tion of the inmates. Maj a. Stewart, of the 02d High landers, who has received the appointment of Deputy Governor of the consolidated establishment at Chatham, will assume the duties of his post on the 15th inst., and will on that day proceed, in charee of 100 convicts from the Warrior, to the newly-erected prison at Chatham. No further change will take place until the Ist of Octo ber, when, most probebiy, a gr, at:r number will he transfeieed. The removal of the invalids will not take place fur the present. The governor and the chaplain will continue to occupy the Warder until the final ar rangements are completed. The collective number on board the hulks is at present 663, - nansly—the War t-Or, 353 ; and the Defence, 315. Captain Buffer is constituted governor of the new establishment, with a salary (according to the efficial estimate) of 5001. per annum, to be annually ineremied 151. Lieutenant Byrne, governor of the Defence, and Captain Keyte, the deputy, have received an announcement that their services will not be required after the dissolnti m of the estat ishment at Woolwich.

The managing committee are making energetic exertions to render this ovation worthy of tbe occa sion. Circulars have been despatched to almost every influential person in Ireland, with a view of obtaining support and pecun'ary assisfauce. The general meeting is to be held on Monday in the' Round-room of the Mansion-house, and a large at tendance is confidently expected. There are, it is calculated, about 4,000 soldiers on the Irish estab lishment in possession of the Crimean medal, but of these it is estimated about 2,000, or one-half only, would be enabled to assemble in Dublin, and, calculating the expense of each man at ss.—the same sum as was allowed in London for the Guards —5lOl. would cover the actual expense of the din ing part of the programme, and an additional 10J/. or so ought, surely, to cover the contingencies inci dent to the occasion. It would be strange, indeed, if in this the land of tributes and testimonials, en thusiasm rightly directed failed in the effort to raise this insignificant sum towards a demonstra tion at which men of all creeds and partiss might for once mingle together without an apparent chance of discord. THE HARVEST. The following is extracted from the monthly ag ricultural report of the Derry Journal, and applies to the state and prospects of the harvest in the north-western counties generally : "The harvest is now sufficiently advanced to give a pretty correct notion of the produce of the cereal crops. Wheat will be sadly deficient in the northern counties. The nearer it approached to maturity the more ailment became the blighting effects which the moist atmosphere of the past summer had upon it. It may be safely stated that the 80,000 additional acres Ns hich his Excellency a e Lord• Lieutenant recently stated to be under this crop in Ireland, as compared with last year, will not bring up , the produce of wheat to the superabundance of that sea son. The few samples which have appeared in the mar keti look very ill, and the crop is universally spoken of as awning a third of an average yield. Oats, on the other hand, were never better, both in quantity and qua- lity ; and from the high price which they command, and the fact that this is the staple grain crop in 'Ulster, the farmers will, in all probability, have another profitable season from their cornfields. Potatoes will fall very short of last year's produce. The growth has ceased at too early a stage, so that, even taking it for granted that those now in the ground will keep good, which is still very doubtful, we should want a third or a fourth of last year's quantity. There were, however, more po tatoes produced in 1855 in the north of Ireland than were required for the legitimate use to which they are usually applied; and large quantities were consumed by cattle in the spring of this year. As usual at this season, various opinions have been exprfa-ted during the last two or three weeks respecting them ; but, judging of the effects of the dLea , o this year, and from the course it bas taken in other seasons, we believe the crop will he likely to turn out equal to that of 1855,1858, or 1854, but very much leas than the crop of 1855. In th e counties of Derry and Donegal there is no great want of bands for harvest-work, nor are the wares so very high as they are stated to be in some other parts of the king dom. There is' however, ample employment: and a fair day's pay for a fair day's work." FATAL ACCIDENT. The Limerick Chron:cle of , yesterday announces the death by drowning of Mr. James Barry, of Rockfiearg ld, a magistrate of the county I and one of the lest land agen ts in the south of reland. Tin Moons AND Fonesers.—The accounts from the moos COLlthine to show a great fa l ling off in the number of birds. It is now certain that the season is a fai!nro so far as grouse are cance.rned. We mentioned last week that:accounts from Perthshire spoke of an average sea son in that county. Gtithness also seems to be an excep tion to the role of failure which seems to characterse the season in all other parts of Scotland. It is said that, in addition to the wetness of the weather and other causes for the scarcity of birds, their numbers have been sadly thinned by tape worm. The forests continue to yield excellent sport.—lnverness Advertiser. WEIGHING BREAD.—At the Devizes petty sessions recently, Samuel Strong, a baker, of Al!cannings, was summoned by.
