The following sensible, unpretending account is from an intimate friend of Mr. George Robins; he was many years a medical man at Mitcham, in Surrey, and from having ruptured a vessel on his chest he was necessitated to abandon his profession, of which he was a great orna ment, and try his fortune in a clime more congenial to a delicate constitution ; he says nothing of his own health in the following epistle, but it is known that during his residence there, for 18 months, he has enjoyed the best health. It was a great undertaking to start on an expedition of seven teen thousand miles, with a wife and seven children, and it is manifest that the encouraging observations that follow, where " nothing is extenuated, nor aught set down in malice," will incline a host of followers to embark for " the land of promise." The importation of the wood from that colony has proved that it pos sesses a source of wealth that had not been contem plated. The specimens exhibited at the New Zealand House far surpass any woods that have adorned the magazines of any of our first-rate upholsterers ; so that a new and profitable trade is unexpectedly added to the many before in perspective, not omitting flax, from which an immense traffic presents itself ; but we are forgetting the letter that has elicited these hasty remarks : Motucka, Nelson, New Zealand, June 14, 1844. MY DEAR FRIEND,—The unexpected arrival of a vessel which has looked in upon us on her way direct to England, gives me the opportunity of sending you a letter with the knowledge that you, will most pro bably receive it within four months of this date ; a period which, however long it may seem to you, is comparatively short to the time:which we find many of our letters have been on their trauels. Some of them most probably have never reached you ; for I hear frequent reports of the irregularities of our post office, and we send our letters indifferently by way of India, Valparaiso, Sydney, or Van Dieman's Land. To begin from the beginning, I will suppose you have already heard, that tired of waiting in Nelson for the machinery I expected, and seeing that when it did come out, it would require more money to set it in motion than I had any chance of possessing, I resolved to remove to my section of fifty acres of land at Motucka, on the opposite side of the bay to Nelson, about sixteen miles in a direct line. I started accord ingly, taking the boys with me, and leaving Sarah, with the girls until I had got some of the roughest work over. So I pitched my tent on the edge of a wood, about three-quarters of a mile from the sea, an began cutting down wood, digging drains, making a road, &c. My first object, of course, was to make myself a house, which I determined to build of lags in the American manner, but from being obliged to begin work in the rainy season, and from having to do with men who, from various causes, had got a great idea of doing exactly a s th e y pl ease d, my progress was not equal to my wishes, so that when my dear Sarah insisted upon coming over three months afterwards, I was obliged to receive her in our tent, where we spent four months of the summer season, leading a complete gipsy life, cooking in the open air, and with no further defence against intru sion of all kinds than a simple piece of canvass, fast ened with a hook and eye. This, however, we found sufficient ; we found the few settlers here excellently disposed, and willing to render us any assistance in their power, and we are on the best of terms with the natives, to whom my character of a doctor is a wonder ful recommendation. I have now another part to play, having been made a magistrate, or, as the natives call me, Governor of Motucka. To return to ourselves ; we have at last got into our house, which Sarah tells me does great credit to my skill and taste as an ar chitect, and which, when finished—for I have not got up my chimneys yet, making use of a stone—she thinks will be one of the most convenient in the colony, as I know for its size it will he one of the cheapest ; for, looking at our number in family, I thought it no use cramping ourselves, and yet it has not cost more, in labour and materials, than 1201. We have been in it about three months, and every week adds something to its comforts, although I can very well fancy any one accustomed to English ideas looking about and wondering where they were. But the fact is, that no one who has not begun from the beginning has the least idea—the faintest conception —of how he is indebted to the co-operation of those around him, or the labours of those who came before him. After lying on the floor one enjoys the luxury of a bed, even a truckle one • after going without milk or butter, I enjoy being the owner of a cow, though I have to milk her myself, and prefer taking my axe, and cutting a log, for the fire, even to the luxury of paying 325. per ton for best Walls-end coals. I ought not, however, to omit saying that my boys are becoming very useful. John and Fred. milk the cow almost always, and Graham drives her home, whilst Mary assists her mother, plies her needle, and hears the younger ones their lessons, whilst each, in turn, takes charge of baby, who is a general favourite, and promises fair to be one of the brightest of the lot. We have eaten potatoes of our own growing, and eggs from our own poultry, and shall soon eat pork of our own raising. I went out, on one occasion, to catch fish, but, after being out all night, and sleeping on the sands by a drift wood fire, I came to the conclusion that, as long as the natives would sell fish of forty pounds weight for a shilling, I could employ my time more profitably. Our woods have, also, for some months, abounded with pigeons ; and, although I hesitated at first to entrust John with a gun, yet, since I have done so, I have had no reason to regret it, and he has sometimes brought home as many as half-a-dozen birds at a time. Then, what you in England call necessaries of life, and we out here style foreign luxuries, are very cheap :—rice, 2id. per lb. ; moist sugar, ditto; coffee, 6d. Flour is dear ; but we hope soon to be independent of foreign countries in that particular, and I have tasted some excellent ale from barley grown in in the colony. So you see there is no great chance of our starving ; in fact, we may be said to possess the three essentials—a house over our heads, good food, and good clothing ; and, if we occa sionally feel doubtful about the future, we do but partake of the common lot of mortality, since none of us know what a day may bring forth. In the meantime, our spirits are not depressed ; we have not forgotten how to laugh ; and the other day, after a hearty burst, only regretted some of our friends were not within hearing. We still continue pleased with the climate ; its fine unclouded warm days, and its healthy bracing night ; and if, in common with all our neigh bours, we feel the want of a heavier purse, we can here afford one thing which no one in England can do, we can afford to be poor. Add to this, that the real expenses of living are ridiculously small ; that I occasionally receive a pound or two for medical aid ; ' that I have partly undertaken the management of a saw-mill during the illness of its proprietor, who was unequal to its management, and you will understand how, with the careful management of my dear Sarah, my income is equal to my expenses, and I do not owe 51. in the colony ; so that, compared with the gene rality of mankind, I may be consideted as very well off. Our friends in England stand no chance of being forgotten, for we have no one here to supply their place, even if that were possible. Few days pass with out our having occasion to speak of them, and hardly one hour, Sarah says, without our calling them to mind. To all who ask after us remember us kindly, and be always assured of the undiminished affections J. D. G. of yours ever, LETTER OF MR. T. ATTWOOD. (Communicated to the Morning Post.) In the spring of the year 1833 I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. O'Connell at the Thatched House Ta vern, in St. James's-street. I had then had, as I still have, but little assistance from public men of any party ; but I had then a si ncere gra tifi ca ti on i n hear ing Mr. O'Connell declareito a meeting of about fifty Members of Parliament and others that, " upon his honour and his conscience, he did believe that three fourths of the miseries of his unhappy coun try were occasioned entirely by that accursed Bill, viz., Peel's Bill of 1819 ! " Mr. O'Connell at the same time illustrated this great truth in a way most impressive, but almost peculiar to himself, by stating, " that, if the American woods had never been allowed to be cut down with out every man being compell e d t o use a go ld en axe, the American woods would have remained in their primeval state to this day !!" In following up this beautiful illustration, I remarked myself that, in my humble judgment, in the present state of society, to cJinpel all the transactions of life to be effected in a golden medium of exchange was very much like compelling every labourer to use a golden plough and a golden spade in the cultivation of the earth, and putting every child to death that had the misfortune to be born without a golden spoon in its mouth. I then proceeded to point out the principal mea sures which were really necessary for the relief of Ireland. First, I said, you must rectify the currency in Ireland, as you must in England. That great measure will, at once, make the currency balance the rents, debts, and obligations which it has to discharge, and the labour which it has to employ. It will place labour in the same state of employment and of wages as existed during the ten years average, ending the late war, or even in a much better state. It will place productive industry generally in the same state. It will thus relieve full one-half, or, perhaps, two-thirds of the existing misery of Ireland. Secondly, you must pass a law to limit and restrain the power of land lords in ejecting tenants of land in Ireland. In Jer sey and Guernsey, no landlord can eject a tenant, without the tenant's consent, so long as the tenant pays a fixed stipulated corn-rent, converted into money at the market price of the day. In this way all improvements become the property of the tenant, as they ought to be ; and if the landlord wishes to obtain possession of the land, he must make his bargain with the tenant, and pay him a just and reasonable consideration. Thus the law protects the tenant in the enjoyment of the fruits of his own industry, which cannot be either twisted or forced out of his hands. The landlord is not injured; for, by the improvements of the tenant, he gets every day a better security for the value of his land, in which the tenant becomes interested, and, in those happy and well-governed islands, is generally a part pro prietor, a tenant, and a labourer at the same time. Establish a system of this kind in Ireland, or some other system of a similar nature—give pro tection to the tenant for his improvements on the land—and you will quickly produce a wonderful change is that unhappy country. You will have no occasion for agricultural societies. Nature herself will produce agricultural improvements, which no art can give. The Irish landlord will get his own, and the tenant will get his own, but the property of the tenant in his land will quickly become as great as that of the landlord; the labourer will be fully em-, ployed and well paid ; both agriculture and manufac turers will flourish, and Ireland will soon blossom like a garden. But, thirdly, you must drain the Irish bogs. You must not regard the low pride and the miserable pre judices of the Irish landlords, who will tell you of their entails and of the territorial dignity which their familes derive from extensive although almost worthless posses sions. You must pay them the full and just value of these possessions ; or you must pay that value twice over, and take them into your own hands. Mr. Nimmo, the Government engineer, reported to Parliament 20 years ago, that there are five millions of bog-land in Ireland, three millions of which are capable of being drained, upon a large scale, at the expense of only one pound sterling per acre; and would then be worth at least twenty pounds per acre!! He reported fur ther, that these three millions of acres were not worth one pound sterling per acre in their present state ! You will thus gain a property worth sixty millions sterling at an expense of only six or eight, or perhaps, ten millions sterling. You must of course drain these three millions of acres of land, and place them in a state of cultivation ; and then you should sell them to Irish labourers, in lots of perhaps five, or ten, or fifty acres each, upon fire or ten years' credit, as they sell land in Canada and in the United States ; and you will thus draw hundreds of thousands of Irish labourers from the overstocked markets of Irish industry, and convert them at once into so many prosperous, independent, and contented proprietors and cultivators of the soil. TIM MARBLE BLOCK FOR THE SCOTT STATUE. — On Saturday the huge block of marble commissioned by our eminent sculptor, Mr. Steell, for his statue of Sir Walter Scott, to be placed in :the beautiful monu ment now on the eve of completion, arrived in Leith harbour from Italy. This enormous mass of Bianeho- Chiaro marble, as it is described, weighs upwards of 20 tons, having been cut from the celebrated quarries of Carrara. It was expected, we understand, some time ago, but, owing to its almost unprecedented size, great difficulty was found at Leghorn for some time to pro cure a vessel for its conveyance to this country. An accident, also, which nearly proved fatal to numbers, occurred on the first attempt to place it on board ship. While it was being lowered into a vessel hired for the occasion, the shears gave way with a tre mendous crash, and the block went through the vessel, fourteen persons being employed about it at the time. The noise, however, caused by the breaking of the ma chine fortunately warned them of their danger, and all escaped with the exception of an old man, who was rather seriously hurt. The vessel being thus rendered unser viceable, the use of the Government pontoon was then applied for, and, after some negotiation, obtained, and by this conveyance the marble was brought to Leg horn. The block was shipped at Leghorn, on board the Gem, of Leith, Captain Hannah, who kindly allowed several of the planks to be cut away, in order to en large the hatchway, and admit the , i monster " piece below. We understand it will be removed to Edin burgh in the course of the week. It is right to add that no inconsiderable portion of the heavy work, necessary in " rough hewing , " or shaping the block be fore it is fit for the sculptor, was done from measure- ments furnished by the artist before its removal from the quarry, and accordingly Mr. Steell will now be enabled to proceed with his interesting labours without further interruption.--Edinburgh paper.

Alderman WOOD rose to move " That it be recora. mended to the Judges and Commissioners of the Central Criminal Court to discontinue the evening sittings, and to hold three daily courts for the better dispatch of business." He thought it would be ad visable to divide the motion into two parts, and there fore, without discussing the merits of the question, he should move the recommendation of the discon tinuance of the evening sittings. As the Judges were to meet on Saturday to adopt the regulations for the sittings during the next Mayoralty, he thought there could not occur a more favourable opportunity. Alderman FAREBROTUER insisted that notice ought to be given of the division of the motion. Alderman COPELAND declared that such an altera tion as that suggested by Alderman Wood would be productive of the greatest possible inconvenience to him and other commercial men in the Court, whose business necessarily occupied them in the early part of the day, and made it impossible for them to change their habit of sitting in the Central Criminal Court at any other time than the evening, without prejudice to their families. If these early courts were esta blished, he for one should be obliged to throw up his gown. He protested against talking to the Judges upon such a subject. _ _ _ Alderman LUCAS said the Court had better agree amongst themselves on the propriety of such a change before they talked to the Judges about it. Tbey ' ought to c ons id er w h e th e r j u ri es and witnesses, as well as magistrates, wo uld n o t be inconvenienced by such an innovation, and certainly they were bound to feel the pulses of their constituents on such a theme. Sir PETER LAURIE believed that the doing away of evening sittings in the Central Criminal Court would do serious injury to the public. It was ob jected that after-dinner sittings were for certain rea sons calculated to operate against rational and judi cious discussions. But it would be remembered, that for several hundred years not a single law had been made before dinner. The members of that Court were willing to give up their time to the public, but they were not ready to sacrifice themselves to public caprice. But the motion had no seconder, and must fall to the ground. Alderman Wool) said he had not discussed the subject, for it was one which could not properly be discussed in many respects openly. There were ob jections to evening sittings which might be very welt imagined, but which he did not think it would be prudent to describe.—(A laugh.) Sir Peter Laurie had argued that Acts of Parliament were made after dinner. Perhaps that was one of the reasons why some of them were so unintelligible, obscure, and nonsensical. —(A laugh.) But the making of an Act of Parliament was very different from the proceedings necessary to be adopted in court of criminal justice, where the lives of our fel low-creatures were perhaps dependent upon a close, and scrupulous, and clear attention to everything connected with the case. In circumstances of such a serious nature it would not do to ring a bell, as was done for a division on making Acts of Parliament, to rouse the Members from their dinner and wine, to decide upon a question of the merits of which they were often grossly ignorant. He saw that the Court was oppose to a change which would effect great benefit to the community; but they would probably, before long, get a hint from Parliament, which would convince them of the necessity of adopting the mea sure he suggested. No seconder having appeared, the subject dropped. —Adjourned. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. NEWMARKET HOUGHTON MEETING.

FORGERY ON THE BANK OF ENGLAND.—(From the Brussels Gazette.)—We would put our readers on their guard against an extensive forgery of notes of the Bank of England for one hundred pounds sterling each, at present in circulation in Belgium and other parts of the Continent. These notes are so well imitated as to baffle the closest inspection. Indeed, we are informed, that even the Bank itself has been deceived by them, for that one was actually paid upon preset.tation there, and it was only when the genuine note bearing the same number afterwards made its appearance, that the fraud was detected. We have heard of 7001. of the said for geries having been cashed by a changeur at Brussels, and 2001. in Antwerp ; but that the Bank has acted in the most liberal manner by having already liquidated nearly the whole amount of these, and it is probable they will do the same with regard to the others as they come in, that can be proved to have been taken in a regular course of business. The person whol (Japed the said parties is apparently a Frenchman, of small stature, with a,good address, but unprepossessing look, and an agent of the bank has come over in purtuit of him. 4 s - - •••• e• _ • . • COURT OF ALDERMEN, • • e - AL 4 •,• - • , re!, I • (1131--.77'.1 " • •-• .e = " 6 'O f 444, CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT — EVENING SITTINGS. • se-o• Q B- o r , • t+ I ~ j . .
