TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SlR,—Yesterday's racing at Newmarket came off exactly as I anticipated it would; Ariosto beat Croupier fur the 100 Sovs. Stakes, and Aphrodite won the 1,000 Guineas Stakes; the last-named performance was accomplished very easily by two lengths ; Ans pacts and Iris, the couple I selected for seconds in command, weresecond and third; the others were beaten into fits, never, in fact, having had a chance. As far back as the 23d of January, I predicted the success of Sir Joseph's magnificent daughter of Bay Middleton and Venus. Her victory, as a matter of course, made her first favourite for the Oaks, which race, it is my opinion, she will win ! It also had the effect of send ing her stable companion, Teddingtora up some t wo or three points for the Derby, making him at 4 to 1, absolute premier for that event. There was a couple of curious moves on the Heath yesterday, concerning the Chester Cup ; one was the advance of Rhesus from 6 to 1, to 7 to 2, taken freely; and the other 200 to 1, taken an infinity of times, of the Leviathan principally, that The Black Doctor won the Cup and Derby. Nothing else worth noting down transpired. In consequence of several very important scraps of in firmation nut having come to hand up to post time this morning, it is not my intention to touch, in a decisive snner to-day upon the Chester events, but to defer .ng so until Monday; however, 1 will lay before you a list of the probable starters for the Cup, with a few of its mysteries which I have obtained an insight into. The field will number between 25 and 30, to be selected from the following: Rusaborough, 4 yrs, Bst 61b; Woolwich, 5 yrs, Bst; Vatican, 5 yrs, 7st 101 b; Back bite, 6 yrs, ist 91b; Vampyre, aged, 7st 71b; Duc an Durras, 6 yrs, 7st 51b; Sauter la Coupe, 5 yrs, 7st 51b; The Italian, 4 yrs, 7st 51b; Clarissa, 5 yrs, ist 31b; Spot, 5 yrs, 7st 31b; The Knight of Avenel, 4 yrs, 7st 31b; Montague, 5 yrs, 7st 21b; Rhesus, 5 yrs, 7st; Sir Richard, 5 yrs, 7st; The Cocktail, 5 yrs, 7st; Seaman, 4 yrs, 7st; Haricot, 4 yrs, Est 121 b; Lady Eden, 4 yrs, 6st 101 b; Brother to Dough, 4 yrs, 6st 101 b; Prior of Lanercost, 4 yrs, 6st 101 b; Mickleton, 4 yrs, 6st 101 b; Gladiator cult, 4 yrs Est 101 b; Strap, aged, Est 41 b; Eva , 5 y rs, 6st 41b, King of Oude, 4 yrs, 6st 41b; Panope, 4 yrs, 6st 41b; York.you're-wanted, 4 yrs, Est 41b; Wallflower, 5 yrs, 6st; Tarn Wadlin, 5 yrs, 6st; The Flying Gout, 5 yrs, sst 121 b; Sprite filly, 4 yrs, sst 10lb; Brington, 4 yrs, sst 101 b; The Black Doctor, 3 yrs, sst 41b; Naucy, 3 yrs, 4st 121 b; Hesse Homburg, 3 yrs, sst 31b; Miss Helen, 3 yrs, 4st 41b. Murphy's heavy weighted horse, Russburough, will carry nearly - all the Irish hopes and money; he, however, I write it distinctly, CANNOT WIN! He may, perchance, as he is in first-rate trim, ob tain the fourth or filth position. Woolwich and The Black Doctor, from the same stable, represent distinct interests, aud both run to win; neither will be far out. Vatican is the Lope of the Fytield division; he is well up to his work and will run home in front. Backbiter represents Scott's lot; he is a dangerous horse to be against, but I cannot fancy he will turn out the winner. Vampyre is a doubtful starter, should he run, he will not be far in the rear. Due an. Durras is an out side fancy of mine; his price, 66 to 1, is well worth taking for the off chance, if money is in abundance. Senter la Coupe has many friends, who expect he will be about the mark; lam not among the number. The Italian, Dawton's hope, I anticipate seeing in the first flight, if not the absolute winner! C larissa, Spot. The Knight of Avenel, Montague, Sir Richard, The Cock tail, ned Seaman, have no attractions for me. Rhesus, by his party considered a certainty, will no doubt be found somewhere near the winner; but, as the identical horse to do the deed, I cannot have him. Haricot and Mickleton will run well. The Gladiator colt is no go. Strap I should take in preference to Eva, The King of Oude, Panope, or York-you're-wanted. I prefer Tarn Wadlin to Wallflower, The Flying Gout, or Sprite filly. It would not surprise me to see Brington stumping along in front. The Black Doctor will beat Nancy; and Hesse Homburg, should she run, will do the same thing likewise. At the present moment, it is my opinion that the final struggle will be between Woolwich, Vatican, Backbiter, Duc-an•Durras, The Italian, Rhesus, Strap, and the Black Doctor; and I should award the place of honour to The Italian or Due an-Durras; with Rhesus, Strap, and Woolwich in attendance. I am, Sir, yours, &c. THE SPIRIT OF '1 HE TURF. April 25, 1851. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. NEWMARKET FIRST SPRING MEETING.

After the jury had been absent for nearly an hour, Mr. Gell was sent for into the jury-room, and on his return he announced that Mr. Montagu David Scott was unanimously elected high constable.

ROVINGS IN --- THE PACIFIC, from 1837 to 1849. By a Merchant long resident at Tahiti. Reader, have you an hour to spare ? We hope so, for your sake, and we say, get the book bearing the above title, and if you like that kind of interest which at taches to, or derives from, the love of adventure and spirit of truth, begin reading it at once. We believe the sequel to be a matter of course. Nay, more, yielding perhaps too readily to a first impression, we might feel inclined to warn you against a certain amount of danger, but for the distance which sepa rates us from the scenes the author describes, and doubt not but many would be found willing to ex plore at all hazards the regions and scenes he so vividly portrays, were it not for that damper upon the spirits of many a would-be traveller, the igno rance of which is part of. the bliss of a savage, as our author proves it, (page 93,) when he says, "the natives do not understand the value of time. All our persua sions could not induce them to quicken their move ments, eec."—viz., the full knowledge of the value of time, and the necessity to make the best of it. But ere we proceed further in our account, one word about the writer. Of him, whoever he may be, we know nothing, save through his work; but if aught can justify envy, we verily believe we must plead guilty to the charge. Three things there are we do envy him for, his free and independent spirit, his life, his book. His name would pleasingly associate in our memory with these interesting records of his singularly chequered career ; but known or unknown, this affects not the work before us, and if this be his first appearance before the public, which we are in clined to believe, we can only say that we hope it may not be the last. But let us start with him, and like him crave a clear stage . and no favour. The opening of this work introduces him to the reader under circumstances which may well claim his best sympathies, and a limine, we admire his fortitude under a certainly most trying ordeal. To begin the world thus is hard—to exchange the comforts of home for the hardships of a seafaring life—to sink the feel ings of the gentleman into the patient endurance of the common sailor, must be painful indeed. Luckily, we find him imbued with that indomitable energy which enables him to rise superior to his assumed station, and a voyage which might have been expected to prove a sad subject of lamentation becomes hu morously entertaining, and personally interesting. As, for example, (page 19.) when we have the writer's messmates introduced to us. Living pictures are those of the boatswain, of old sails, of chips, of the steward. Wish you to know how a poor sailor fares on hoard ship? "Beef! heavens, what an halluci nation; the fagged end of a birchen rod steeped in brine possesses as much delicacy and flavour." Again, (page 23) " Old horse, old horse, what brought you here? You have drawn turf fur many a year, With knocks and kicks and sore abuse, Now salted down for sailor's use." Or else, would you see the frailty of human nature acknowledged, and the spirit of mischief, fresh from school, at work—due allowance being made for the apology offered—proceed to page 27; but we leave the gem where we found it. May be you would like to know the writer's poetic view and graphic repre sentation of a storm at sea : " I had reed of boundless seas, waves rolling moun tains high, and similar expressions calculated to inspire awe and dread; but I cannot say that my notions of stu pendous grandeur were realised: the visual horizon is too close upon you, you lose the idea of boundless apace, and the waves never rise above fifteen or twenty feet, (quite high enough it any of them should happen to break on board you). It they met with obstacles op posing resistance, foam might ba dashed to the height of sixty feet, or even higher, and spray might he carried to the height of three or four hundred feet; but as for ves sels riding upon the tops of mountains, seething billows rising in overwhelming masses above the topmast head; all I can say is, I never witnessed anything of the kind: instead of being alarmed at the mad howling of the blast, it bad, on the contrary, quite an exhilarating effect. But it is not between decks where one would en joy this sensation, particularly if it was your watch be low and you felt disposed to sleep; it is scarcely possible to conceive a more helpless or uncomfortable situation than to be embowelled in a vessel, kicking and plunging like a racehorse in traces. Your body, without any vo lition of your own, is first rolled to one side, then to the other; now you are almost perpendicular, anon you will be standing on your bead. You bend your knees and form an acute triangle with your body to try and fix yourself, but you get the skin chafed off at the hold ing points—the crupper-bone and knees—and desist in despair. You stretch yourself to the fullest extent, making your head and heels the holdfasts, at the immi nent risk of becoming bald. A deceptive lull takes place, you relax your extensors for a single moment, and the next sees you sprawling upon the deck, with en franchised chests, mess-kids, tin plates, pots, and all the miscellaneous rubbish usually to be met with on board ship, all bent on performing an Irish jig. In the gale off the Cape the courses or lower sails were battled up, and we were under closed-reefed topsails, scudding be fore it. Four men were stationed at the helm, two at the wheel, and two at relieving tackles; the weather helmsman, whose movements guided the others, kept glancing over his shoulder, eyeing the seas that appeared ready to leap on board. At last in his nervousness he gave a sudden jerk to the helm; his mates seconded the impetus, and brought about the very consequences be tried to shun. The vessel broached to, the starboard quarter gallery was carried away, the cabin passengers were washed out of their berths, sea after sea broke over us; confusion and dismay reigned paramount; the mate lost his presence of mind, and I expected we should have all gone to the bottom. The men were shouting and swearing, the ladies were shrieking, a couple of 'prentices and myself were struggling to gain footing, for a heavy green sea of many tons weight had broken over the quarter-deck, which knocked us down, and continued washing us to and fro, till I secured a grip of the cap stan. Presently the captain rushed out in his nightcap and drawers ('twas past ten, r ei.). Without evincing more than ordinary concern, he gave a tew short orders, clear and distinct, which were attended to by those who best understood them, whilst I maiutaintel my loving embrace of the capstan. Presently discipline was re stored, and the vessel was again staggering before the gale. The sea that broke over the weather bulwarks in a green mass carried the small mite of a 'prentice away in the body of it like a scarecrow, arms and legs ex tended. Look out, Jack!' was the cry choked in my throat by the rushing of many waters; but Jack had no need of admonition, for when the turmoil was over, I observed him quietly dropping from the main rigging." But we hasten and reach Sydney ; there we find the future merchant entering upon a new phasis of his existence, and we gladly leap with him from the fore castle to the quarter-deck. Leaving to the reader his account of a two years and a half's residence in New South Wales, we sail with him to New Zealand, and, exploring that country, see strange sights, meet strange people, and gather strange knowledge, ever seeking fresh scenes and encountering fresh adven tures, one of which we deem exceedingly curious, as evincing an amount of coolness, self• command, and devotion little to be expected from a savage : " It was fortunate, perhaps, that we failed on this oc casion, as it soon afterwards became known ashore that two of the seamen had smuggled two slave women be longing to the chief on board, and had contrived to con ceal them from the knowledge of any one; and bad we succeeded in getting out, the probability is, we should have been met by the natives in their war canoes, and the vessel Would have been plundered. On resuming our berth, the chief suppressed all outer show of knowledge or resentment till the dead of night. The crafty savage, accompanied by a single attendant, then stole softly on board, and suddenly stood over the sleeping men as they were lying in the forecastle. He aroused the delinquents by a gentle grip on their throats, and their horror may be imagined, on starting from sleep, to find themselves in the clutch of the justly incensed chief, whose eyes were glittering with ferocity. I was told the fellows were completely paralysed, and made no attempts at de fence or resistance; not that either would have availed, as the two athletic savages could have destroyed with their tomahawks all in the forecastle before they had re eovered from their fright. The chief enforced silence by waving his tomahawk with one hand and placing the fore-finger of the other on his lips. The trembling women sank speechless to the deck; and the guilty sea men, with nervous trepidation, opened their chests and made signs for the chief to take anything he pleased as payment. Lie weeded them pretty decently, taking from them their Sunday clothing, their whole stock of money, amounting to between four and five pounds, and every other serviceable article. Seizing the women by the hair of the heed, he then dragged them up the forecastle ladder, and forced them to descend into the water by the chain cable, and having secured his booty, be quietly got over the vessel's side and paddled after the women in the same noiseless manner he bad come on board. Not a soul but those in the forecastle knew anything of this summary proceeding, the news of it being carefully kept from the officers and myself. Of course no such occurrence could have taken place had a proper anchor watch been maintained; as it was, every soul lay buried in sleep. The chief administered a severe flogging to the women, and, not content with rifling the seamen's chests, the opportunity for plundering the vessel with an apparently justifiable motive was too great for his cupidity to withstand." The following advice may be useful to some : " I am no geologist, botanist, or agriculturist, and can not judge of the mineral resources of New Zealand. Botany is an amusing pursuit for the leisurely researches of superfluous talent in old countries; but I should have thought that our Pharmacopoeia and alimentary lists were already replete with the agencies of life and death; nor do I see that civilized life, with all its aids, is ex tended to greater length of days than savage life. Many are of opinion that New Zealand will make a fine grain country : this may be; but my opinion is that it would be a much finer one it its bogs and marshes were filled up by its tumultuous jumble of hills. This earth of ours must have been sorely troubled with the colic when New Zealand sprang into creation. It bears marks of having b been upraised from the deep by the mightiest throes and wildest eructations: it possesses some good harbours, valuable as whaling stations, and it has limited capabi lities of furnishing an export of timber. So long as the British Government maintain an expensive establish ment, and capitalists go there, the settlements around head-quarters will thrive, but an inversion of the order of things will take place; those who brought wea l t h will lose it, and th e p oor w ill become rich; the hard-working labourer and the astute store-keeper will be the- princi pal recipients and holders of the money introduced into the country. I certainly am not favourably impre-.sed with the unrevealel resources that are yet to be brought to light in New Zealand, and am of opinion that our Australian colonies would have benefited far more if we had suffered any other nation than our own to colonize it. Some dread that it might have nursed a naval power that would one day compete with our own, and interfere with British commerce in the Pacific. It is true that our formally taking possession will keep others from it, but it will prove rather an expensive act of diplomacy, or I am greatly mistaken." And now we are fairly roving from place to place, and visiting not only those islands in the Pacific where aught is to be done in a speculative point of view, but also where aught is to be seen worthy of the attention of the philosopher; and in course of time we reach what we consider the most singularly inter• esting part of these volumes—the description of Auth Luna, or Split Island, and witness wonders performed by mere men, with a degree of ease and coolness which baffles our notions of the possible. We can hardly refrain from quoting the following incident : "There is a little soil ou the summit or wall-like ridge of the island yielding a growth of coarse grass, and a peculiar variety of scrub. The natives have like wise succeeded in rearing a few cocoa-nut trees. The ascent to a novice is rather perilous, and made the wink; you have to wind your• way up larerally, and at one point you have to pass round the salient projection of a bald rock where the footing is shelving and not fourteen inches broad, the rock overhead bulging forward, while below you have a sheer fall between 200 and 300 feet in depth. I was for giving it up, when Emery took the lead, telling me it was the only dangerous spot; but then he was barefooted, and for years had been habituated to go so; the tenderness of my feet would not allow me to dispense with shoes, and the slippery soles made my case more perilous; false shame prevented my retreating, but at the time I ceukl not help considering that the object to be obtained was scarcely worth the risk. When I had sidled half way ecross this very awkward pass, my arms extended and fingers stretched out nervously clutching at any little unoveuness of surface, and whilst I was hesitating where next to put my foot, groping in vain for come fissure into which I might thrust my fin gers, or for some root that I might grasp, I caught sight of the frightful descent, my head swam, and I was turn ing sick. At this moment of imminent risk, a native daringly swayed himselt outside me, striking me smartly on the back as he passed: this recalled my senses, and arrived in safety on firmer toting again. Toe rapidity with which this bold action was performed is surprising; for a moment the man's body must have been off the centre of gravity, and I believe the poor fellow endan gered his life to inspire me with confidence, for bad I slipped when he was passing me, he would have been involved in certain destruction." We at length reach Tahiti, and there again the au thor's pen assumes a new duty—an ungrateful one, we fear, but likely to do good; but we leave his re• marks to the comments of the reader; thence we proceed to pearl fishing—then to an interview with the natives of an island said to have been till then un visited by white men, which proves the cause of ra ther an awkward predicament for our merchant, or, as we might now say, our hero, and now his vessel wanting repairs, we follow him to Valparaiso, where new scenes await us. But here we must, however, reluctantly yield to necessity, and pause, not, how ever, without indulging the expectation of reverting on a future occasion to these entertaining volumes, and tracing further the author's course, were it but to have with him a concluding glance at the new El Dorado, the land of promise, the all-attracting Califor•• nia. Meanwhile, reader, trusting that you are, like our selves, restricted by the negative agency of time and space, we would end as we commenced, and say, only devote a leisure hour to the opening of the work, and we doubt not but it will recommend itself to a con clusion with more force than all we could say in its favour. 111 USICAL EDUCATION; with Practical Obser vations on the:Art of Pianoforte Playing, including a Model of a Scale of Practice for Pupils of all. Ages. By Eleanor M. Geary, Professor of Music. .2Vew and revised Edition. We are rejoiced to find that the public has de manded a new edition of this admirable work, and cannot but augur favourably for the cause of good music, from the extensive circulation of Miss Geary's excellent observations on the art of pianoforte play ing. Herself one of the most perfect pianoforte per formers of the present day, and at the same time are of the most successful of teachers, Miss Geary has in this little work given us the results of her extensive experience, and has shown, both to professors and pupils, not only what they are to do, but what they are to avoid. She has laid down a model of a scale of practice extending over a series of ye ars, a regular adherence to which will, without fatigue and without injustice to other studies (Miss Geary recommends that on no occasion should more than two hours in each day be devoted to practice), constitute a brilliant pianiste. We fully agree in opinion with Miss Geary that desultory practice should never be indulged in, and join with her in deprecating the bad habit, too common with junior governesses and ama teur teachers, of "telling a child the names of the notes she is to play, and in many cases actually placing her fingers on the notes she is to strike." At the conclusion of the work we have some valuable observations on the various methods of teaching the harp and the guitar. Miss Geary has rendered good service to the cause of sound musical education by the publication of this excellent little work. THE CHARTIST PROGRAMME. The following programme was adopted by the Chartist Convention on the 10th of April : " The paramount duty of a Chartist National Con vention is to promote Chartist organization—to keep that organization distinct from every other political movement or alloy, and to spread through all classes political and social knowledge to the utmost of its power. I.—lt is, therefore, resolved, for the better reorgani zation of Chartism:— "1. That, since by each and all of the franchise mea sure>: now before the r eop (exo.pting that embodied in the Charter), the middle class would gain tar more votes than the woiking class, which would place the latter in a more powerless position than at present, the Charter must be agitated for in its entirety—that the omission of any one of its points would impair the utility of the remainder, and that, therefore, popular support must be withheld from all franchise measures falling short cf its provisions. "2. That the clause in the original Bill for the Char ter, specifying that every malo adult should havo the vote, unless convicted of crime, be modified to imply a deprivation of the vote merely while undergoing punish ment for crime, since, the punishment for an offence once undergone, no after penalty ought, in justice, to attach to the individual. " 3. That a national petition for the Charter be pre sented to Parliament, such petition to be prepared on the following plan :—Simultaneous meetings for passing the petition to be held in every town or borough, where practicable. At such meetings two tellers to bo ap pointed to count the numbers present; tho petition, to gether with a declaration affirming the numbers in favour of such petition, to be signed by the tellers and the chair man of the meeting. " 4. That, iu anticipation of a dissolution of Parlia ment, all boroughs where the Chartist body are strong enough to contest the election, forthwith fix on candi dates pledged to the Charter in its entirety, form election committees, subscribe funds, commence agitating the dis trict, and bring their influence to bear on the constitu ency. That a here the candidate cannot go to the poll, a Chartist be put in nomination on every hustings in the kingdom, when it is possible to seize that opportu nity for spreading Chartist knowledge. " 11. Municipal and parochial power should be vested in the hands of the people, since disfranchisement in local matters is as unjust as the restriction of the elective fran chise. There . ore it is resolved— " 1. That the assistance which Chartist organization may derive from municipal and local power be not lost sight of, and that practical steps be taken in all townships and parishes (where democratic organization is in exist ence) to contest the municipal elections. " 2. That addresses be issued to the people relative to municipal and parochial legislation, and that the ques• Lion of municipal and parochial universal suffrage be brought before the public on principles analogous to those of the Charter. " 111. It is further resolved that the agitation for the Charter be carried among the trades, to strengthen both movements through mutual aid; that communications be entered into with the executives of the trades' unions, the various trades' bodies and associations of working men, fur that purpose, p o i n ting out the reciprocal advan tage to accrue from e co-operation between the two great sections of reformers. " IV. That the agricultural counties be divided into districts; that tracts and Eddresiea to farmers and la bourers be prepared and issued. " That missionaries, taking with them a supply of such tracts and addresses, be sent into the several districts, and that public meetings and lectures be held in the rural towns for the purpose of establishing localities. " That missionaries be also sent to the Irish people, and the colliers, miners, and railway labourers. " The expenses, where necessary, to be borne by the National Chartist Fund. "The Convention is further of opinion, that the best way to enlist sympathy with the Chartist movement is to show its bearings on the g rievances of all suffering classes, that those classes may be taught to see i n Chartism the leverage of their hopes; that the best way to impress and weaken class government, is to show those who yet support it that the Chartists would do them more good than class government can or will afford; pouring one continuous stream of agitation on class go vernment, from eve-y portion of the toiling community; attacking every one of its monopollec; assailing ever y one of its strongholds, and breaking them down in detail, even to their foundations. " The Convention is also of opinion that a political change would be inefficacous unless accompanied by a social change; that a Chartist movement, unless accom panied with social knowledge, would result iu utter failure; and we ought to enlist, not merely the politi cian, but the man of business; that we cannot claim or receive the support of the labourer, mechanic, farmer, or trader, unless we show that we are practical reformers— that power would be safely vested iu Chartist hands — that we know their grievances, and how to redress them; that the Charter would confer on them a positive, immediate, and permanent benefit, and at once increase alike their comforts and resources. "The Chartist body should, therefore gaud foyfard EVENING, .14 PAIL 25, 1851. as the protector of the oppressed; each suffering class should see in it the redresser of its several wrongs ; it should be the connecting link that draws together on one common ground, the now isolated bodies of the working classes—self-interest being the best tie to bind them to each other. " It is, therefore, time that the self- interest of every one of the oppressed classes be appealed to. Each one of these classes demands a measure of social re form proportioned to its wants—though various, these requirements are not conflicting—one right can never contradict another—truth can never antagonise with truth. " To stand forth as the uniter of all these isolated, but, in fact, homogeneous interests—to weld the millions into one compact mass—to evoke the dormant mind of the country, and thus to launch the gathered power in the right direction, is the duty and endeavour of this delegation of the peoplo. " The Convention, deeply impressed with this truth, while keeping Chartism distinct as an organized politi cal body, not joining any other section, nor mixing it with any organization, recommends that public atten tion be directed to the following principles; that the subjoined remedial measures be submitted to the classes severally interested; that their support of Chartist or. ganintion be solicited on the ground of these reforms, and that these be made the subject of continuous and universal instruction : "L-TDE LAND. "This Convention believes that the land is the in alienable inheritance of all mankind, and that therefore its present monopoly is repugnant to the laws of God and nature. The nationalisation of the land is the only true basis of national prosperity. " With a view of arr►ving at this ultimatum, it is re solved that the following measures be successively urged upon the public:— " l. The establishment of a Board of Agriculture. "2. The restoration of poor, common, church, and Crown lands to the people. " Such lands to be divided in suitable proportions. All persons located upon them to be tenants of the State, paying a proportionate rentcharge for their holdings. " 3. Compensation to out-going tenants for improve ments. " Tenants not to be tied down to any old covenants, or rotation of crops. " The repeal of the game laws. " All ront4 to be commuted into corn-rents. • " 4. The State to be empowered to purchase land, for the purpose of locating thereon the population, as tenants, individually or in association, paying a rentcharge to the State. The funds for that purpose to arise from the rentcharge payable on the common, church, poor, and Crown funds above mentioned, and such other sources as may hereafter be determined. " 5. Government purchasing land as above not to be permitted to sell again, but to hold such lands as na tional property for ever, lettir.g them to tenants i❑ such quantities, and und, r such conditions, as may secure treedoni to the tenant, and safety to the State. " 6. The State to have priority of purchase, at fair current prices. " 7. To provide for the final and complete nationali zation of land, the State to resume possession of the soil as rapidly as the existing interests can be extinguished by process of law, by death, by surrender, or by any means accordant with justice and a generous treatment of all classes. " 11.-THE " Religion should be freP; as spiritual, it ought not to be subject to temporal control. "Theiefcre the . Covcntion recommend— " 1. Complete separation between Church and State. " 2. All Church temporalities to be declared national property, except such individual endowments as have been voluntarily and legally made. " All ecclesiastical buildings, of which it can be clearly show❑ that their cost was defrayed from national funds, to belong to the State. The persuasion now using these edifices to continue in the enjoyment of them on equitable conditions. " 3. Tithes and church rates to be abolished. "4. The State not to interfere with the internal polity of any church. All ecclesiastics to be appointed in any way their respective congregations think fir, and to be paid voluntarily by the congregations that employ their services. "5. Ecclesiastical licences for purposes of education ,o be unnecessary. " 111.,---EDITCATION. " As every man has a right to the means of physical life, so has he to the means of mental activity. I t i s as unjust to withhold aliment from the mind as it is to deny food to the body. Education should, therefore, be na tional, universal, gratuitous, and, to a certain extent, compulsory. " It iq, therefore, recommended— "l. That schools, colleges, and universities, sup ported by the State , be gratuitously open to every citizen, and that it Le compulsory with all parents to have their children educated in the common branches of learning. 2. That education in its higher branches be equally gratuitous, but optional. "3. That industrial schools be established, in which the young may be taught the various trades and pro fessions, thus gradually superseding the system of ap prenticeship. " IV.—LABOUR LAW. " Labour is the creator of a nation's wealth—as such ,he most important element of its prosperity. Notwith standing this, the relation of master and man has been repugnant to the well being of society; the creator has hitherto been the servant of the creature; labour has been the slave of capital, and groaned under a system of wages slavery, contrary to every principle of freedom. " To elevate labour from its present depressed condi tion the following measures are proposed, with a view to the more rapid abrogation of wages slavery, and the de velopment of the co-operative principle:— " 1. That all co-operative associations for industrial purposes have a right to rkgistratiun and enrolment with out payment of fees, and to possess an unrestricted num• ber of affiliated branches. "2. That the law of partnership be so altered as to remove existing difficulties in the way of association. " 3. That since the co-operative principle is essential for the well-being of the people, since the centralisation of wealth ought to be counteracted by a distributive tendency, and since its accumulation in the hands of isolated clubs is an evil secondary only to that of its monopoly by individuals, all future co-operative attempts, until the complete rc-adjustment of the labour question, be mods-lied ca a national basis, and connected in a na tional union, of which the different trades and societies be localities or branches; and that the profits, beyond a certain amount, of each local society, should be paid into a general fund, for the purpose of forming additional associations of working men, and thus accelerating the development of associated and independent labour. "4. That a credit-fund be opened by the State, for the purpose of advancing money, on certain conditions, to bodies of working men, desirous of associating to gether for industrial purposes. " V.—Moon LAW. "As it is the duty of every man to work, so every man has the right to the means of work; and those un able to work through infirmity or age have a right to support at the hands of the State. Therefore, " 1. All ableboclied persons who cannot support them selies should be supplied with remunerative work, and, where possible, located on the land. " 2. Where the State cannot find work for the unem ployed, it is bound to support them until labour is pro vided. "3. The unemployed should be supported by the State, not by the parish—and the cost be defrayed out of the national revenues. " 4. The aged and infirm should be supported in their own homes, in the houses of their relatives, or in special buildings erected by Government, at the option of the recipients. 61 is not safe where an unarmed and undisciplined people stands in presence of an armed and disciplined class, it is therefore requisite that every male over fifteen years of age should be afforded the opportunity of mili- tary training. " XII.—THE PRESS. "Absolute freedom of thought and expression being one of the primary and the most sacred rights of- man, all restrictions on printing and publishing are unjust, and iniquitous; this Convention, therefore, declares its de cided hostility to the taxes on knowledge, and recom mends the total abolition of " The duty on paper; " The duty on advertisements; The penny stamp tax on newsp a p ers; " " And the import duty on foreign books and publi- cations. " Addresses, eac h embodying one of the prec e di ng measures of reform, to be circulated, together with an exposition of the Charter, and its necessity for. enabling such reform to be obtained. G.

JAMMU ,t MARKETS. :From De Cordova's Mercantile Intelligencer, March 27. GENERAL REMARKS. A good deal of firmness has been evinced during the past fortnight by holders of dry and pickled fish. We regret, however, that we cannot report any great im provement in breadstuffg. A slight speculative feeling suddenly manifested itself during the early part of the fortnight, under which upwards of 2,000 barrels Balti more flour were disposed of; but it has suddenly sub sided, and the market relapsed into its previous quiet state. The sate, however, of so large a parcel has had the effect of creating a better feeling for the article, not withstanding that the supply it.: importers' hands is still considerable. The sugar market is heavy, and the trade are endea vouring to effect a reduction in the prices of the lower qualities; holders are, however, firm, us there are buyers for shipment at better rates than home dealers are will ing to gwe. Ruin is in good inquiry for export. We notice a somewhat slackened demand for ordinary Coffee. We may state with confidence that it is not just now contemplated to make any r.lterations in the Import Duty Bill, as the revenue derived under it forms an im portant item in the calculations of the finance com mittee, whose amended report is now before the Holm of Assembly.

ST. MARY-LE-STRAND EASTER VESTRY.--P R o. osEa NEW Ciluncii GALLERY.— Last evening a vestry was held in New Church-court, Strand, by the parishioners of St. Mary-le-Strand, for the purpose of electing the several officers, to make the rector's-rate,poor' r s e - c r t a o t e, and on other business.

" VI.-T A XATION. Taxation on industry represses the production of wealth—on luxuries, encourages Governments in foster ing excess—on necessary commodities, acts injuriously on the people's health and comfort. " All taxation ought, therefore, to be levied on land and accumulated property. " VII.—THE NATIONAL DEBT. " This debt having been incurred by a class Govern ment for class purposes, cannot be considered as legally contracted by the people. "It is, moreover, absurd that future generations should be mortgaged to eternity for the follies or mis fortunes of their ancestors, and the debt be thus repaid several times over. _ _ _ The national debt ought, therefore, to be liquidated by the money now annually paid as interest, applied as repayment of the capital, until such repayment is com pleted.

At the same time the Convention acknowledges the ex pediency of a standing force being maintained until suit able changes in our colonies and at home s hall have ren dered its continuance no longer requisite. " Until such change, the following enactments are necessary for the comfort of the soldier and the safety of the citizen:— "1. That no enlistment be binding unless renewed before a magistrate by the person enlisting, after the ex piration of a period of one week. "2. That the soldier have a right to a free discharge at the end of four years. "3. That the soldier be no longer confined in barracks, since the isolation of troops estranges them from citizens, renders them unfit for the duties of domestic life, demo ralizes them, and is unnecessary for discipline, as proved by such discipline not being impaired when troops are the quartered on the inhabitants, which is frequently ease, both in peace and war. " 4 That troops quartered on the inhabitants be paid for as lodgers, and that none be compelled to receive them. " 5.

REMARKABLE PRESERVATION OF THE CREW (From the Moreton Bay Courier.) Last Tuesday night a boat, schooner-rigged, and a smaller boat, rigged as a cutter, arrived in the Brisbane River, having on board the master, officers, passengers, and seamen of the barque Jenny'Lind, which vessel had been wrecked on a coral reef, called fiend's Reef, in latitude 21.15 13 5.,. longitude 165.49 E. (Nofie lays down Kenn's Reef in lati. tude 51.9 0. The difference in calculation may be easily accounted for. The longitude agrees.) The particulars, as we have gathered them from various sources, are as follows :—The Jenny Lind,,, 484 tons, Captain Joseph Taylor, left Melbourne fat Singapore, on Tuesday, the 3d of September lest;;_i being chartered to proceed from Singapore to Londoi or Liverpool. The ship's company consisted of Cella r - 1 1' tam Taylor, Mr. Masters, chief mate ; Mr. Harpur. second mate; and sixteen seamen and apprentices. Th passengers were Mr. Beal, Mr. Noble, Acker man, Mrs. Herpur, and Mr. and Mrs. Somerset, and three children. Mr. Beal, Mr. Noble, and Mrs. Harpur, were passengers to London : the others had taken their passage to Singapore. The weather seems to have been v„ergy variable until the 21st of September, no observation having been taken for two days previously, in consequence of the sun being obscured. The chief mate took charge of the watch at ten minutes past four in the morn ing of the 21st, and enjoined the man an the fore. castle to keep a sharp look- ou t, as th e sun bad not ; and at the same time - be been taken for two days directed the man at the helm to keep the ship N. by W. The wind at the time was W. by S., and the :' • ship going nine knots thrOugh the water. Ircdriee diately afterwards the officer of the watch saw soali,' thing black a-head, and asked the 100k -out, man whit it was, and he answeredgthga..twiliy seems twa t o h the re a d v e e ct s i: o n wr of: a heavy black cloud that was ha n ging over head. A - quick glance over the an the mate better, and he immediately had the helm put hard up, and all hands called fore and a f t . The vessel wore off to the wind, but before the braces could be touched she struck aft, and immediately afterwards lay broadside on to the rE . .7.-f, the Er.« intik - mg hreachea' over her. The masts were cut away, but the vessel continued to lurch heavily upon the reef, and it was plain Abet she must soon break up. An attempt was made to launch the pinnace, but this was unsuc cessful, and the master got his leg hurt iu the attempt. After great difficulty the jolly-boat was launched, and two hands being placed in het, she was taken to a rock at a short. distance, inside the reef, and there secured. The safety boat was then launched, and the difficulty of this process will be understood w'heniteiasinreemnedms,bearnedd that tt thethe vessel was nearly on her b boats had to he hoisted to the davits on the upper • quarter, and thence launched into the sea. IVbett the second boat was launched, the women and children were first taken off in her to the jolly boat, which served as a temporary depot. In this Way all bands were got cut in three trips, some of the seamen jump. ing overboard from the jolly-boat when she WAS get ting overloaded, and bolding her on ; the water being shoal near the rock. Van all had left the ship, „th e people were divided in the two boats, and made for a co ral bank, partly covered with sand, which lay about half a mile away. This place they all reached in safety. The islet on which they landed was about 150 yards long, by 40 wide. In the course of the afternoon souse provisions and about four gallons of water were procured from the wreck, and about half a gill of •water was served out to each person. Next day some sails were procured, also some provisions, and a small keg containing limejuice. The master had saved some of his charts and nautical instruments, and got them away when the boats left the wreck. A search was made for the mail, but it could not be found, as the vessel was completely bilged, and fast breaking up. On Monday a copper boiler and some lead piping, together with a cistern, having been procured from the wreck at low water, Mr. Phi lip Beal (a son, we understand, of the Rev. W. Beal,' of Exeter, and lately surgeon of the ship Rajah) succeeded in distilling fresh water from the sea water, and half a pint was served to each person that even ing, the fuel for the purpose being procured from the wreck. On the next day, after consultation, it was resolved to attempt the building of a boat large enough to carry all hands in safety to some port, and, ac cordingly, three divisions were made of the men ; one portion to assist in saving necessary articles from the wreck, another to assist Mr. Beal in distilling water for their sustenance, and the third in building the boat. Some carpenters' tools were procured from the wreck, and timber from time to time, and in this way the judicious arrangements that bad been made were effectively carried out. The men employed at the wreck succeeded in saving many necessary articles, in cluding some clothing; the boat builders' department, under the superintendence of the ship's carpenter, as sisted by some persons who had a slight knowledge of :shipbuilding, were actively employed; and Mr. Beal and his assistants were continually engaged in sustaining the lives of the people by distilling sea water. An attempt had been made to find fresh water by digging, but the diggers only came on the coral, which afforded to them no more relief than they could get by sucking from it the fresh mois ture that had exuded through the sand. During their stay at this solitary place some re lics of former wrecks were found. A rusty chain was discovered on the reef, and some boat boards and other pieces of timber in other places, also some cinders, as if a fire had been made on one of the banks. By the 25th of September, Mr. Beal had so far improved his machinery, by means of articles pro cured from the wreck, that he was enabled to main tain twenty•five gallons of fresh water that day, and thenceforth the supply to the people was more liberal. The provisions, however, began to get short, and the allowance was reduced to half a pound of flour a day, which had to be made into pudding, with salt water. The little biscuit they had was preserved for a sea stock, as was also all the water that could be put by. At length, on the Dttli of October, the boat upian which all their hopes depended was launched success fully. It was found that she sat well on the orator, but leaked considerably, and two days more were oc cupied in repairing that defect, and getting her rigged and stowed. These operations being completed, the adventurers got under weigh on the 29th of October, 22 persons being in the craft that had been built, and six in the safety boat. They made for Moreton Bay, and the wind was favourable until Saturday last , at when it blew from the southward, and they of to cast anchor in a small bay to the "I" b c u ar t ci n„ t t Wide Bay, Viliere they saw some natives, but, them on liking their manner, they refused' to board.

Captain Wickham, on behalf of the Government, supplied the shipwrecked mariners with lodgings and rations ; the females and children have been quartered with the matron of the immigration depot, and we believe 'that the inhabitants generally have exerted themselves to assist the sufferers. Mr. Smith, of the Victoria Hotel, supplied provisions to the men while their rations were being prepared. We are informed:-that the reef on which the Jenny Lind struck was not laid down on the chart of the Australian coast (dated 1849) with which the ship was provide,d• The cargo of the Jenny Lind consisted only c ' f ... l small quantity of flour and beef.
