This Company is formed for tie purpose of carrying out Work man's Patent for manufacturing waterproof, common and hollow bricks, tiles, &c. The general complaint of architects, surveyors, builders, and others engaged in the erection of docks, warehouses, tunnels, and other structures, has been that, with our progress and improvements in scientific and other matters, nothing has been produced that will per manently resist the destructive influence of damp. Cements, stuccos, and other means have been introduced, but without success. Bricks generally, from their porous nature, absorb and retain large quan tities of water, and become conductors of damp. The waterproof bricks made by Mr. Workman's patent will not absorb or retain moisture; neither are they affected by the atmosphere, thus reme dying the evil complained of. It will be seen that bricks, tiles, &c., made under this patent, being completely waterproof, with the same adhesive qualities as the com mon brick, possess great advantage over all others in the construe ton or building of foundations, warehouses, Vaults, tunnels, docks, walls. tanks, baths, &c., and for brickwork of every description. The peculiar character of these tricks has been proved, by the practical tests of the gentlemen comprising the Jury of Class 27 at the Great Exhibition of All Nations in 1851. The patentee has not only obtained the prize medal front the Corn . rnissioners of the Great Exhibition of 1851, but he has been honoured by the high commendation of his Royal Highness the Prince Con ' sort and his Majesty the King of the Belgians. As the water proof and also the common bricks will be manufac tured by improved machinery, the trade will be supplied at lower prices than at present charged. ' The acknowledged supe•lority of these bricks over all others will insure an all but unlimited demand, and orders are continually being received by the patentee for large quantities, both for home con . Sumption and exportation; numerous applications are likewise being made for licenses. The following Report of the Jury composed of the undermentioned eminent and scientific gentlemen was submitted to her Majesty's Commissioners for the Exhibition of the Works of Industry of all Nations, 1851 :—Benedetto Pained, Royal Mint; Lord Sudeley ; D. T. Angled, F.R.S., Reporter; Bernareo de Bernard's; George Godwin, F.R.S.; Sir Charles Lemon, Bart., F.R.S., 31. P. ; Em manuel Psj cha ; Viscount Hericazt de Thury ; F. Barker, Esq. ; J. H. Henry, F.R.S. ; Gecrge Lowe, C.E., F.R.S. Report of the Jury submitted to her Majesty's Commlsioners for the " Exhibition of the Works of Indust r y o f all Nations, 1851. A prize medal has been awarded to Mr. J. w orkman (116, p. 773) for an ingenious and apparently effectual method of rendering common bricks perfectly waterproof; at a cost of about 6s per thou sand. The machine by which the process is effected is sufficient to turn out from 30,000 to 50,000 per day, and the waterproofing takes place either during the first process of manufacture, or after the brick is completed. No extra cost of carriage is needed to complete the work under any circumstances. "It is unnecessary to point out all the advantages that would re sult from taking advantage of this method, but the reporter would not omit to notice its peculiar Importance in the case of cottages and ok small houses, and for vaults and foundations. It is in these t a PPII- cation s that the very great absorbency of common bricks (which will as.c up, on the average, nearly a quart of water each, is so ruinous, t hot o nly to the property exposed under their shelter , but to e e the o of the inhabitants, who are often very, ill supplied with the means of removing the evil It has becom e a subject of great national importance to procure an ample supply of bricks to meet the continued and increasing demand. It may be remarked that during the last season (1852) the stock round the metropolis ran short, by several millions, of the required supply. It is now considered beyond a doubt that bricks manufactured by machinery are superior in quality to those produced by labour, the clay receiving in its transit through the die great compression, which cannot be effected by hand. On reference to the report of the jury selected by her Majesty's Commissioners at the late Exhibition it will be seen that one ma chine alone is capable of yielding 30,000 to 50,000 per day. The profits which will accrue to the Shareholders from the manu facture of waterproof and common bricks and the sale of licences will ensure a large and increasing dividend, and, at the present price of stock bricks, at least 60 per cent. may be safely relied upon. The Directors therefore feel confident that they will be enabled to declare a dividend within a few months from the commencement of opera tions. The patentee has entered into a conditional contract with the Di rectors to dispose of the whole or his interest upon ♦ery favourable terms, and, to mark the confidence lie has in the su2cess of the undertaking, lee desires to take one moiety of the purchase money in shares. The Directors have also concluded on the purchase of several plots of ground, so that the manufacture of bricks can be commenced forthwith ; and it is their intention periodically to advertise in the " ho ]der," and other trade journals, the price of all descriptions of bricks and tiles manufactured by them, in order that builders may be guided, in this especial department, by the most perfect accuracy and ecoliorny in making their estimates for all contracts they under take. Al plications for shares to be made to the broker, or the Company's offices, 34, I k loorgate-street, where prospectuses may be had, samples of the waterproof brick inspected, and every intotmation obtained.

These unique, strange, and beautiful creatures, so unlike in form and feature to all other members or the hurl= family, are now creating the most intense interest amongst tie principal members of the Royal College of Surgeons, the Royai ;Institution, and the Geographical and Ethnological Societies. Alit: the most minute investigation, they have pronounced them to bnparalleled by any specimens yet discovered r live, a n d t o hav ao other alliance in species—traceable by comp.rative anatomy or otherwise—than to the ancient races whose portraitures are found on,the antique Sculp tured Obelisks and Hieroglyphical Pictures from the ruins of NINEVEH, EGYPT, AND CENTRAL imams. These really astounding and incomparably bealitititl beings—a Male, aged 17, and a female, aged 11 —are described by the tbove-named learned authon to be the representatives—the last fragments of the race of Aztecs driven from Mexico beyond the Sierra Nevada by Cortez, captured by the Mahaboon Indians, \ ?Wined by them till they have dewenerated to their present staturt4 and kept by the priests in their solemn temples to be worshipped by the people as objects of idolatry. Facts so as‘ton'ishing and equally incontrovertible, joined to the exquisite beauty of form and the unusually pleasing manners of the two little creatures, invest them with extraordinary attraction, and render them no less objects of admiration and wonder to the general publ c than to the whole world of scientific men ; Physiologists, Ethnologists, and Comparative Anatomists, having already made it a subject for profound contemplation that the earth should still con tain living impersonations of beings coeval with its early history and hitherto supposed to have left no record of their existence bat sculptured marble and painted stone.

The military manoeuvres at Chobham have created an amazing excitement. The presence of Re 3 alty and the respects pa'd to their beloved Sovereign by the several div;sions of the British Arny, was as effective as the uncommon illustration of how battle fields were lost or won. Thousands on thousands crowded to toese sights, and every class in society shared the interest of this vast display. Every observer felt the force of the fact that dress constituted the principal feature of this magnificent affair, and to every one was ap parent the mighLy advance made in the tailoring art within the last half century. The fact will not be questioned that E. Moses and Son have been the originators of all modern improvements in attire of every desenp. tion—Military Costum s, Naval Uniforms, and thousands of novel ties in Gentlemen's Dress ; in fact, there is not a season, an occasion, or a profession, but for that E. MosEs and SON make the most mag nificent and ample provision, and they charge all goods at much lower prices than other houses that competition is entirely unavailing. E. adoszs and Son's unrivalled JUVENILE ATTIRE furnishes the greatest advantages to Parents and Guardians, it is more pleas ing, fashionable, comfortable, and serviceable than any other for Young Gentlemen obteined elsewhere, and the present stock even surpasses all previous displays—the very superior quality of the materials and workmanship united with the best principles of econ omy and universal recommendations. With equal appropriateness the above applies to the novel and gigantic stock of HATS and CAPS, with every elegant description of HOSIERY, BOOTS al.cl SHOES, &c. &c., presented by E. Mom and Soar. WHAT IS DONE WITH THE GOLD? In one week one million live hundred thousand pounds value in gold was received from Australia, yet the bullion at the Bank of England decreases. The purposes of commerce call into circula tion a vast proportion of precious metals. Diggers, however suc cessful, cannot overstock the market. What should be done with the gold previous to em)arkation ? At E. MOSES and Sox's the best, the most complete, the most useful and indispensible Outfits may be procured on considerably less gold than might be expended elsewhere. The greatest advantages are derived from investments of gold in the Clothing manufactured by E. MOSES and SON, which is cele- brated in all the colonies. Merchants, Captains, and Emigrants should inspect the largest Wholesale Clothing Establishment in the world, that is E. MosEs and Sou's. Ship sailing information aed full Lists of Outfits for Ladies and Gentlemen, may be had on application, or post free to any part of the kingdom. CAUTION.=-B. MOSES and SON regret having to guard the public against imposition, having learned that the untradesman-like falsehood of " Being connected with their Establishment," or " It's the same concern," has been resorted to in many instances, and for obvious reasons, they beg to state that they have No CONNEXION WITH ANY OTHER HOUSE IN OR OM OP LONDON, except their own Establishments, as follows : London City Establishment, 154, 155, 156, and 157, Minorles, 83, 84,85, and 86, Aldgate, opposite the Church, all communicating.

On comparison of these two tables it will be seen that a person under the novel system of DEPOSIT assurance e.in secure the follow ing advantages, via., let. For a less sum, paid a [madly, he can assure a larger eum in case of death than under the ordinary system. 2dly. In the event of a desire to surrender his Policy he can receive In this Company, by the above example, whii ah applies to all ages, THREE times as much as on the ordinary system - 3rdly. In the event of inability or omission to pay, his policy remrains still his property, of the same value as it was, though he cease his current payments for any number of years; whereas on the ordl nary system, he gets nothing. 4thly. Should he require to incr ease or decrease the amount of his policy, he can do so at pleasure. He can at any time, by giving a fortnight's notice, withdraw any p. art from li up to the whole amount of his previous payments and wi th interest. After he has withdrawn part one year he can, by a s ingle payment, three years, or any time afterwards. raise his policy" to a greater or even its former amount ; and by this system be can. at all times regulate his annual savings by his annual expenditure, with the facility in the bargain of having a fund to fly to in case of necessity, the same as in a bank, with this palpable advantage, however, that he gets Inte rest for his money, and in case of death his famEy receive more than the amount of his savings. In ordinary Life 'Offices be can do no such thing, but his policy at once lapses or is enamelled the moment he ceases to pay his current premiums, and, instead of having any fund to fly to for aid, all his hail-earned savin gs become forfeited to the society, and his misfortunes serve to bent nit the pockets of his more fortunate co-assurers. Such a system is too equitable and too stri' ring to be overlooked and DEPOSIT assurance is the only system of a: isurance which can be universally recognised and adopted when the. principles are impar tially canvassed, and its palpable benefits beco me widely diffused. It confers greater advantages than a bank because it allows a fair rate of interest in case of withdrawal, and gives twice the amount in the hands of the Company to the representatives of the Depositor in case of death, thus combining the ADVANTAGES OF A BANK WITH T]aE BENEFITS OF GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY.

The intelligence of the death of Commodore the second in command in the West Indies, of yellow fever, will be received with great regret, for the gallant officer was much and deservedly respected in the service. By the Navy List it Will be seen that Captain Baynes, C.B. (1828), has the good-service pension that was so long vacant. Assistant-Surgeons Gilbert L. King and M. C. Robert son have received appointments ; the first to the Vesu vius, steam-sloop, at Portsmouth, and the latter to the Tribune, 30, at Woolwich. MALTA, JUNE 25. The Wasp, screw-steamer, from the fleet, arrived on the 23d inst. ; she has nothing of importance. The fleet was lying in order of battle, guns double-shotted, and a steamer a head of each. The Wasp is to be docked. The Sanspareil, screw steam-frigate, arrived in port yesterday, and will go to sea on Monday, to join the Admiral in Besika-bay. On the 20th, the anniversary of the Queen's acces sion, Admiral Dundas was to have invited the French Admiral de la Susse and his staff, to celebrate the anni versary, on board the Britannia. General Fergusson, on receipt of his dispatches by French boat yesterday, has refused all leave to officers applying for it, even as far as the coast of Sicily. PORTSMOUTH, JULY 1. To-morrow, weather p erm itti ng , the Spithead fleet will perform a very pretty manoeuvre—that of ranging in line-of-battle. The sailing ships, screw ships, and vessels (Prince Regent, 90, Duke of Wellington, 131, Agamemnon, 90, London, 90, Blenheim, 60, Ajax, 60, Hogue, 58, Edinburgh, 58, Imperieuse, 50, Amphion, 34, Highilyer, 21, Encounter, 14) will form two lines, and the paddle-frigates Sidon, 22, Odin, 16, Leopard, 12, and Express-boat Banshee, 2, will form the centre line. The former are to take up their berths under sail, and the latter under steam. General Ogareff, Aide-de-Camp to his Imperial Ma jesty the Emperor of Russia, and Banal £reudnur, arrived at the George Hotel, Portsmouth, yesterday, from town, with letters of introduction from the First Lord of the Admiralty and the Master- General of the Ordnance to the naval and military authorities of this port, intending 'to inspect the dockyard, &c. However, a slight contretemps pre vented the gallant ofEc.irs from gratifying their curio sity yesterday, as at the time of their making their ap pearance at the dockyard, the Commander-in-Chief and the Admiral-Superintendent were absent, and they were consequently refused an inspection. This, however, was eventually conceded in the case of the General, but the Aide-de-Camp was refused. This being the state of things, the gallant visitors returned to the George with their host, Mr. Crofts, who had accompanied them to the dockyard to present them, the Commandant of the garrison also being out of the way at the moment. In the evening the distinguished visitors were entertained by Major-General Simpson, who accompanied them this morning to the Port Admiral's. They have since in spected the dockyard, the Duke of Wellington, at Spit head, &c. _ . The Cyclops steamer-transport, arrived to-day with a portion of the machinery for the newly-launched screw two-decker Princess Royal, 91, and came into harbour to land it this afternoon. Arrogant, 46, screw, Captain S. G. Freniantle.—No thing gives us so much pleasure as to, notice when any a. e xtraordinary exe r ti on i s used to get ship ready for sea in an unusually short time. Scarcely.l2 days since the Arrogant was placed under the shears and had her old boilers taken out. She was then docked and had some trifling defects made good under her bottom, with a few valves shifted, and h er copper cleaned. She was again placed in the steam basin, under the shears, and received on board her new boilers, which have been placed some seven feet further forward, which will increase the draught of her fires ; and in her new boilers she will be enabled to work up to 12 pounds on the square inch, in stead of four and a-halt as heretofore. Owing to the exertions that have been used, and the excellent system adopted by the engineers of this yard, under the direc tion of Mr. Murray, this splendid steam-frigate will be enabled to join the squadron at Spithead on Monday next—gangs of convicts have been engaged during the day in supplying her with coal, and this evening she gets up steam ; thus completing this ship within two days of the time specified, and as given in to the Admiralty. Captain Patey, we are informed to-day, is still going on favourably. A court-martial, of which Rear-Admiral Corry was president, was held this morning on board the Victory, to try Mr. John Richard Richards, Second-master, R.N., of her Majesty's ship Arrogant, for having attempted to break his arrest when on board the Camperdown hulk, on the 25th of June last, having been put under arrest on the 23d for being drunk. It appeared on the first mentioned date the prisoner, between 7 and S o'clock p.m., was observed to get out of a lower deck port, and get into a shore boat alongside ; he was subsequently brought back, and reported to Captain Fremantle, who then ordered him under close arrest. On his way to his cabin, on the lower deck, he suddenly ran to the stem enterin g port, and jumped over b oar d, an d com menced swimming to the dockyard, but was over taken by the cutter, and placed on board again by Mr. Lawrence, the master-at-arms. The prisoner, in defence,. denied wishing to escape from the ship, and said he was excited by being threatened with a court-martial, which caused him to jump overboard. The Court declared the charges proved, and adjudged the prisoner to be dismissed from her Majesty's service. PLYMOUTH, JULY 1. The crew of her Majesty's screw steam-ship St. Jean d'Acre, Captain Keppel, got up topgallant masts yester day. The steam-sloop Valorous, 6, Captain Buckle, took in 50 tons of coal yesterday, from the depot i n th e S oun d, and made a short excursion outside the harbour, The Brisk, steam-vessel, has been placed at her sailing moorings, preparatory to her leaving for the West Indies. The steam-sloop Sphynx, 6, Commander Shadwell, daily expected from the East Indies, is to be paid off at this port. The frigate Madagascar is ordered to be fitted and commissioned as a depot at Rio Janeiro. The Camel, lighter, is ordered to go to Pembroke with stores.

AUSTRALIA AND THE CAPE ARRIVAL OF THE MELBOURNE. PLYMOUTH, .FRIDAY. The Australian Royal Mail Steain Navigation Com pany's mail-packet Melbourne, Commander James Simpson Hutton, arrived this afternoon' from Australia and the Cape. She left Plymouth on the 15th of October last, was dismasted on the 21st of October, and bore up for Lis bon, where she arrived on the 26th ; left. Lisbon on the 21st of November ' • St. Vincent's o n th e I s t o f Decem ber ; Cape of Good Hope on the Ist of January, 1853 ; King George's Sound on the 25th ; Adelaide on the Ist of February ; Port Philip on the 6th, and. arrived at Sydney on the Bth. The'Melbciurne left Sydney for England on the 6th of March, Port Philip on the 13th, Adelaide on the 18th, King George's Sound on the 2d of April, Cape of Good Hope on the 17th of May, St. Vincent's on the 14th of June, and arrived at Plymouth on the lst of . July. She brings as cargo 83,400 oz. of golddust,—namely, from Sydney, 500 oz. ; Port Philip, 70,000 oz. ;‘ Ade laide, 13,000 oz. ; a few paCkages and a small quantity of specie, bank bills, &c. Passengers, 85 adults and 31 children. The Melbourne's intelligence from Australia has been partially anticipated. On the 18th of March the price of Victoria gold at Adelaide was 3/. 16s. 6d. per oz., last sale ; of Burra Burra Mine Shares, 129/. net. Issue draught on London, at 30 days' sight, 1 per cent. premium. To buy bill on London, 30 days, 14 per cent. discount. The mail steam-packet Adelaide was hourly expected at Adelaide on the 18th of March. The steam-ship Cleopatra was appointed tq leave Ade laide on the 9th of April, Melbourne on the 14th, and Sydney on the 20th, for England, by the Straits of Magellan or Cape Horn, calling at Rio Janeiro and Madeira. ' The Shanghai, steamer, from Singapore, was expected at Adelaide on the 6th - of May. Her Majesty's steamer Torch left King George's Sound about the 18th of March, for Sydney. The intelligence from the Cape of Good Hope is 25 days later than that by the Bosphorus, which arrived at Plymouth on the 23d of April. The frontier districts are restored to peace, but its contin uance a ft er t h e with drawal of the British forces is problematical. General Cathcart is locating Gaika tribes at some dis tances from their possessions. Moshesh and Kreili show no disposition to disturb the colony. At Natal the native population is peaceable, and trade is extending. Gold, in small quantities, has been found. At Cape Town the reception of the constitution, with the Duke of NeWcastle's gratifying dispatch, continued to give great joy to the colonists, especially to those in the western provinces, and her Majesty's birthday was to be celebrated, in consequence, as a jubilee through out the settlement. is conßrmed attacks of feve , . 4161.6; 1 ;4- - - --11-- "aentc )me company's ships in vest Indies havem..affer severely from yellow On board the Medway Mr. Carr, the fourth officer,. and Mr. Dougl as , th e purser, bad fallen victims to it. Capt. Curling, of the Medway, has returned bathe in the' Magdalena invalided. He reports that from the 10th orMay to the sth of June 17 persons had died on board his ship--viz., two, officers, two pursers,,,, two engineers, one carpenter, and ten of the crew. The Trent was spoken by the Dee off Carthagena the 10th of June, and reported having lost Mr. Ramsay, chief engineer, Mr. Stone, second engineer, and seven of th e crew by yellow fever.', On the 27th ult., in lat. 426 north, and long. 24.20 west, the Magd a l ena spoke tie General Screw Com pany's steamer Hydaspes, bouriq to Plymouth, coming home under canvas with her rloachinery damaged, as previously reported. The Hydaspes left Mauritius on the 14th of April, an d p l ace d on board the Magdalena her mails from Mauritius, St. Helena, and the Cape of Good Hope. From Jamaica our advices extend to the morning of the 11th of June. The yellow fever, we regret to notice, was raging at Kingston ; it had also appeared at. Port Royal, and a rumour prevailed that it had reached UT park Camp. Among the victims, we regret to find, is Commodore Peter M'Quhae, commanding on the sta tion at Port Royal. He was interred at Halfway Tree the day before the packet left. The Legislature remained in the same positiOn as re corded by our last advices. No revenue—no revenue bills ; the house adjourning from day to day without transacting any business, having refused to do further business with the Council, in consequence of their re jection of the Retrenchment and Appropriated Revenue Bills on two or three successive occasions. Much anxiety prevailed on the subject of copper mining, and the inhabitants looked forward to a new source of wealth to the island from the very excellent specimens that had been collected. The weather was extremely hot, the general health good, the yellow fever being confined principally to newly-arrived Europeans. De Cordova's Mercantile Intelligences gives the following review of mercantile affairs : ' w i t ay "Although the differences between the Council and the House of Assembly remain unsettled, business mat ters generally, in as far as the import market is con cerned; wear a more satisfactory appearance than they have done for the last Bor 10 weeks. The unlikelihood that any legislative measures will be adopted with refer ence to the re-enactment of the revenue bills, without the interference of the Imperial Government, which must of - necessity defer the adjustment of the question for two or three Months ac: least, has rendered specula tive transactions less hazardous, and induced dealers to come forward rather more freely than had recently been the case. Prices generally have been equably supported, and (the abeyance of the rated duties considered) have ruled higher than was anticipated. Moderate receipts, however, have had a great deal to do with this." Her Majesty's ship Calypso arrived at St. Thomas, from Barbadoes, and sailed on the 11th for Montserrat, all well. Her Majesty's steamer Alban left Jamaica on the sth of June for Havannah. The brig Daring sailed on the 26th of May, and the schooner Bermuda on the Bth of Juno, for a cruis e . _ _ ■ At Simon's Bay were her Majesty's ship Mean der, 44, Commodore C. Talbot, and the Hydra. The Styx steam-sloop, Commander Henry G. Norris, and the Dee, 4, steam troop-ship, Lieutenant-Commander George T. C. Smith, arrived in Table Bay, on the 15th of May, with the remainder of the 73d Regiment, now stationed at Cape Town. The Sphinx, 6, steam-sloop, Commander Charles F. A. Shadwell, embarked invalids at the Cape, and sated for England May 17. The Gee long, for Australia, and the Dalhousie and Asiatic, for Calcutta, have arrived 4 the Cape. The Barbara Gor don, laden with copper ore and wool, from Adelaide, bound to Swansea, was lost on the west side o f C a p e Agulhas on the Bth of May. On attempting to land on a raft, Mr., Mrs., and Miss Redish, Mrs. Dalton, Mrs. Hay, and one seaman were unfortunately drowned. The barque Maid of Auckland, from Adelaide, arrived at the Cape of Good Hope on the 16th of May with 21,000 oz. of gold and 23 passengers, for London. The General Screw Steam-shipping Company's mail packet Hydaspes arrived from the Mauritius in Simon's Bay Mar 3, and sailed for England on the 6th. The Mauritius steamer, from Calcutta, had not arrived at the Cape on the 17th of May. The Calcutta was spoken by the Melbourne on the 2d of June, 10 miles south of the line, long. 12 42 W., all well. The Melbourne' spoke also, April 16, the Victoria Regina, standing N.N.E., in lat. 25 3 S., long. 74 7 E. ; May 3, the French ship Guy of Nantes, in lat. 31 26 S., long. 32 39 E., May 16, the barque Messenger, for Moulmein, off the Cape of Good Hope ; May 22, the ship Emily, from Madras, in lat. 26 23 S., long. 8 5 E. ; June 7, the ship Nuova Paquita, from Lisbon for Melbourne, lat. 10 20 N., long. 19 50 W. ; June 8, the ship China, Bombay, lat. 11 17 N., long. 20 50 W.

June 14, exchanged colours with the ship Theseus, standing south ; J une 30, barque Dart, bound south, 150 miles from the Lizard, and barque Olinda, bound south, 80 miles from the Lizard. On the pas4ge from Port Philip to Sydney, 20 miles north of Cape Horn, the Melbourne lost half her pro peller, which caused a detention at Sydney of 21 days, in order to cast a new one. At 2 a.m. on the 12th of April, in lat. 25 27 S., long. 90 36 E., , she again carried away half of the propellor; the remaining part was hove up, and the engineers set to work to construct a new one from a boiler plate and portion of the flooring of the engine-room, which they completed in eight days. Un fortunately, on the 23d, at 7 15 p.m., off Fayal, the crank shaft of the engines parted, when they were com pelled to heave up the propeller, and complete the voy age to Plymouth under canvas only. 35 of the crew deserted in Australia, and the Melbourne left there 16 hands short of her complement, which was made up at the Cape of Good Hope. Unless repaired at Plymouth, she must proceed under canvas to the Thames. The mails of the Melbourne, in 200 bags, besides boxes, are said to admeasure 43 tons, and to be the heaviest ever embarked at the colonies. They were in charge of Captain Phillimore, R.N., and were dispatched by the London mail train which arrives at Paddington at 4 15 a.m. on Saturday. The Magdalena spoke the Orinoco on the night of the 16th ult., off Virgin Gorda, steering for St. Thomas. The Avon, Captain Elliston, was at St. Thomas ; the Trent on the Spanish Main route ; the Dee at St. Thomas, bound to the Northern Islands ; the Medway bound to the Spanish Main ; the Conway at Jamaica ; the 'Eagle at Barbadoes ; the Derwent at Jamaica.

We have now received our Calcutta parcels and papers. The following is a summary of what had occurred since the departure of the last mail : Nothing definiti ve h a d b een heard from Rangoon, but it was confidently expected that the very next steamer would bring the treaty, duly signed, and that peace would more once reign throughout British India. All was quiet in the province. The entire Aeng Pass was in our possession, and the Burmese had withdrawn altogether from its vicinity. The Arracan battalion had returned to Sandoway, leaving a sufficient force for the protection of the Pass during the coming-rains. Sickness in the corps was, we regret to hear, greatly on the increase. The severe cases of fever were prin cipally confined to those men who had been absent in detachments during the past cold season in the. Aeng Pass and elsewhere. The Bombay letters and parcels which should have come by this arrival were forwarded by the previous steamer. The following is extracted from the Overland Oalcutta Star "Since the departure of The last overland mail no inews has been received from Burmah. We reported in our last issue that the Phlegethon, which was supposed to have been dispatched with the Governor-General's ultimatum in reference to the treaty,' had been obliged, in consequence of sickness on board, to put back to Cal , outta ; she started again for Rangoon on the 11th inst., but whether the mail she carried was big with the fate of Burnish or not has not yet transpired. One of our contemporaries stated, a few days ago, that the ratified treaty was daily expected from Rangoon ; but if there be any truth in the statement that the treaty has been referred to the Governor-General in Council, it would appear that this announcement is rather premature. However, the Indian public are tired of the business ; and if we may be allowed to judge from the papers, we should say that for the last ten days Burmah and its affairs have been almost entirely forgotten. "An epidemic disease, something resembling the plague in its symptoms, which first made its appear ance in the Eusofzye country, appears to be rapidly spreading itself along our north-western frontier. The latest accounts report its having extended to the left bank of the Cabul river, opposite to Naosheera, a vil lage distant about 16 miles from Peshawur. Fears are entertained of its visiting the station, and precautionary measures, such as the establishment of a quarantine at each of the different ferries leading from the Eusofzye country to Peshawur, have been adopted. It is the general impression among people at -Peshawur, that as soon as the hot weather sets in its ravages will cease. Since Brigadier Hodgson's late raid against the Kus ranees, the frontier tribes would appear to have been tranquil." C HIN A. HONG KONG, MAY 5. The mail of the Bth of March, from London, arrived here on the 24th ult. An outward mail leaves to-day. The health of the garrison continues good, and, dur ing a review of the troops by hie Excellency Major- General Jervois this week, their movements and disci pline called forth general approbation. Front the north we have no later advices than to the 12th ult., forwarded by the last -mail, of the 21st ult. It is reported that an overland express has arrived at Canton, stating that the insurgents had defeated the Imperial troops, and were proceedinc , northwards towards Pekin. For the confirmation of this we must wait the next arrival from the north, hourly expected. We mentioned, on the 28th of March, the novel and extraordinary proceeding of an armed French force being in the small garden at Canton for the purpose of erecting a flagstaff, against the wishes and protest of the community. We have now to 'report one of the most grave and serious insults and outrages that has probably ever been recorded, in the capture of two Englishmen by the armed marines of the French corvette Capricieuse, in the small 'garden of the community at Canton, the act ing English Consul's authority totally disregarded, and the two, gentlemen forcibly and rudely taken off to Whampoa, where, after about an hour's questioning, they were liberated by Captain Rocquemaurel, they having been found to have committed no offence what ever. Great excitement and indignation were caused among the community at Canton, and, to prevent any further collision, the leading merchants of the community rallied round to protect the French flagstaff. Sir William Hoste, senior naval officer, went up to Canton on the Ist inst., and it is said Captain Rocquemaurel has given a proper apology for the insult ; but nothing has been published, nor does it appear that be has taken into consideration the outrage committed on the two English gentlemen. His Excellency M. Bourbillon has gone up to Canton. There has been much exaggeration as to persons com mitting annoyances against the French armed force, ap parently with the object of increasing the ill feeling, but it must be borne in mind that the aggression sprung from the French authority, and an armed force—with no good intent towards the community of merchants and gentlemen—is fortunately of rare occurrence in Canton. The United States' steamer Mississippi anchored in the harbour on the 27th ult., and proceeded to Shanghai the same day with Commodore Perry on board. The Peruvian barque Caprice has been taken up by Commo dore Perry as an extra store-ship. The ship Emigrant, from Whampoa to Demerara, with coolies, is detained here on account of sickness on board, and an investigation is going on regarding her. The uncertainty that exists regarding affairs in the north seems to affect prejudicially markets at Canton, where, since our last, business has been limited, and, in general, at a decline on previous prices. Longcloths, cotton yarn, and woollens are lower. Metals are firm. Rice continues high, and the export rigidly prohibited from Canton. The transactions in exports have been small. Some settlements of Canton congou have been made at 18 to 21 tls. High prices are talked of for the new season's teas, which are ex pected to arrive early, but we have no information yet as to the crop that is to be relied on. Exchange on England, ss. ld. to ss. for six months' bills ; on India Company's accepted bills, 239 r. to 240 r. per $lOO. Freights to England, nominal to 3/. 10s. There is still a demand for tonnage to the exports. The Tinto has not yet completed her cargo for London. In Harbour—Her Majesty's ship Spartan; United States' barque Caprice.

Letters of yesterday from Canton mention that the French force had retired from the garden, and all was quiet. May 6, Though the dispatch of the mail has been put off till 2 p.m. to-day, to afford an opportunity of sending on the important advices hourly expected from Shanghai by the steamer we regret that we continue without any arrival from the north, being upwards of three weeks without having any communication from Shanghai. The Spanish war steamer Don Jorge Juan arrived from Manilla last evening with dates to the 30th of April. Exchange on England ss. per dollar. British tonnage wanted for the colonies.

The Bentinck and the Oriental steamers arrived almost simultaneously off Calcutta en the 13th inst., the latter bringing intelligence up to the 7th ult. The advices regarding some of our staple articles are not satis factory. Very little business has been done in our indigo mar ket, only 274 chests having been brought forward since the date of our last report, of which 119 chests were withdrawn or bought in. The shipments to the 13th inst. amount to 24,845 chests, containing 93, 563 of which 13,587 chests have gone to Great Britain, and 7,970 to France. Rain has fallen pretty generally in Lower Bengal, but some factories still complain of the want of it. Money continues tolerably abundant, but more strin gent terms are exacted for accommodations. Bank of Bengal shares are consequently improving in value, an d now are more freely taken at 6,000. New Oriental Life Assurance shares have risen to 365. Government Securities, with the exception of the Loanadverti se d to be paid off, maintain their position. New Fives are quoted at 109-6 to 109-8. Many holders of the 5 per cent. paper to be paid off on the 25th July have dis counted it at the Bank of Bengal at 3 Per cent., and invested the proceeds in the Four per Cents. We have no alteration to note in Exchange. First class credit bills have been done at 241 to 2.1 and documents at 2- I k. There is not much demand for! bills owing to the small sales of imports. Freights remain unaltered at 31. 17 s. 6 d . saltpetre, and 4/. sugar and rice to London. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE.

The United States mail steam-ship Washington, Cap tain Fitch, arrived at Cowes this morning, on her way to Breinen, for which place she started immediately after transhipping her English mail and passengers for this place. The Washington left New York on the 18th. Her news is conseqUently three days later than that pre viously received per Arabia, at Liverpool. Nothing of importance had transpired since the last advices. The Asia steam-ship had arrived out, after a good passage, from Liverpool. The ship Gondar, loading for Liverpool, was burned at her wharf, at Charleston / on the 16th, and 1,800 bales of cotton and 37.5 barrels of resin destroyed. The ship and cargo were insured in Liverpool, Great. consternation had been caused at New Orleans in consequence of an insurrectionary attempt on the part of the neg,rroes to rise upon. the white populatien. A man of the name of Dyson, an Englishman, was at the head of the movement. For a year past he has been teaching a school of negro children: He was accused two years ago of hoarding a negro criminal, and was imprisoned several months. ha s been arrested -on this charge, and is in prison. If the offence is proved against him, the penalty will be very severe—probably death. Later advices from Texas state that the Wachiti Indians had murdered ai.l but one of the persons be. longing to a surveying party under Mr. Hubert, on the Red River. It was said that several cases of Asiatic cholera had occurred in Alexandria Valley. Advices from Cuba state that several thousand slaves had been lanled on the island. The Maine Liquor Law had passed the Senate. The Gavazzi riots have attracted the attention of the Canadian Parliament. On the 13th inst. a petition was received from sundry Protestants of the city of Quebec, praying that they may be,made secure in the observance of religious worship, and that the city municipality may be rendered responsible for all damages occasioned by breaches of the peace. Mr. Stewart, by whom the peti tion was presented, introduced a bill to provide a remedy against the corporation of Quebec, and for assuring its citizens against destruction of property by mobs. The bill was read for the first time, the second reading having been set down for Monday. THE FRENCH AND THE NORTHERN FISHERIES.-011 the 18th of May a French cutter from Miquelon, mounting six guns, made her appearance in the Bay of St. George, on the coast of Newfoundland, where about 40 British vessels from Prince Edward's Island, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswi c k, were engagag e d i n h err i ng fishing. The Frenchman ordered them all to leave im mediately, threatening to fire upon them if they refused, and they were thus driven away, leaving their nets be hind them, and without wood or water. Of course their owners complain loudly, and demand reparation. As no objection has hitherto been made to the British fishing upon that part of the coast, this act of the Frenchman, unless misstated, is a sheer piece of folly. It must be borne in mind, however, that the treaty of 1763, confirmed by the treaties of 1814 and 1815, by which Great Britain ceded to France, along with the isles of St. Pierre and Miquelon, certain fishing rights, has been denounced by the Newfoundland people them selves, on more than one occasion, because, as they alleged, those rights were exclusive as to the parts of the coast between Cape Ray and Cape John. In adopt ing and carrying out their own interpretation of the treaty, the captain of the cutter, or those under whose authority he acted, may have shown, and probably did show, great want of judgment ; but it is not likely any rigid accountability will be insisted on by those who, in advance, settled the principle against themselves. COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. In the New York money market, of June 17, the transactions were longer than usual. Reading Railroad advanced I per cent. ; Crystal Palace, 1 ; New Jersey Railroad, 2 ; Canton Company, At the second board the market was still firmer, Hudson Railroad went up to Y per cent. Great firmness exhibited itself in the value of cotton, and brown sheetings were quite sought after at full quotations. Ashes were fairly dealt in. Flour active and buoyant. Hides have somewhat declined in price. Butter plenty. Sugars active. COMMERCIAL TRAVELLERS' SCHOOLS.—A deputation of the Board of Management of this institution, consist ing of John Masterman, Esq., M.P., president ; George Moore, Esq. ; Robert Wilcoxon, Esq. • A. H. Moore, Esq. ; Geor ge L awrence , E sq. ; J. L. Boothby, Esq. ; Thomas Blake, Esq., and Charles Woolloton, Esq., had the honour of an interview with Prince Albert yesterday morning at Buckingham Palace, for the purpose of so. liciting his Royal Highness to lay the first stone of the new building about to be erected at Pinner, near Har row. The Prince received the deputation most gra ciously. The president, Mr. Masterman, opened the subject, and explained fully the object of the deputation. The treasurer, Mr. G. Moore, then entered into some statistics to explain the design and prospects of the in stitution, and this was followed by some remarks by Mr. Wilcoxon in support of the observations that had been made. His Royal Highness listened with great attention to the gentlemen who addressed him, and kindly acceded to their reque s t. Prince Albert did not fix the day on which he would go through the ceremony, but intimated that he would communicate his wishes in this respect through Colonel Phipps to the Board of Management. He, however, stated that he s h ou ld fi x some day in the l a t ter end of present month. CHESHIINT COLLEGE, HERTS.—The anniversary of th!s institution was celebrated at the College, Cheshunt, Herts, on W e d nes d ay last, at which upwards of 1,000 ladies and gentlemen were present. The proceedings commenced in the chapel, when two appropriate addresses were very ably delivered by Messrs. Insell and Taylor, two of the students, after which a most eloquent and impressive sermon was delivered by the lion, and Rev. Baptist W. Noel.

Among the 103 passengers by this steamer are Gene ral Bunbury and the Hon. Mr. Ellis, from Jamaica ; Archbishop Scharfen and the Abbt Perrot, from St. Thomas ; Senor Costello, Mexican Minister to London, &c. The freight list includes specie value $995,357, or say 200,0001. sterling, of which only a very small por tion is for account of the Mexican dividends. The freight list also includes 320 serons cochineal, 152 serons indigo, 17 serons jalap, 39 chests cigars, 141 bales tobacco, 11 packages coffee, 29 bales sarsaparilla, 7 casks ginger, packages quinine, 4 cases tortoiseshell, 10 cases suc cades, and a full general cargo. The Magdalena left St. Thomas on the 16th ult., and has made a run of little over 14 days to Southampton, the mails being received here 12 hours before due. We regret that the mortality on board has been very great during the time the ship was lying at St. Thomas, and also on the voyage, 18 cases of yellow fever having oc curred, of which 11 proved fatal. There have in all been 62 cases of fever and illness. Among the deaths by yel low fever is that of Lieut. Striven, R.N., the Admiralty agent of the ship who was seized on the 16th and died on the 20th ult. The remainder of the fatal cases, with the exception of one, a passenger named Miss Rodgers, were among the crew. The last death took place on the 29th ult. Notwithstanding this fearful mortality, Mr. Wiblin, the medical Superintendent of Quarantine, granted partique to the ship, and the passengers and cargo have been landed, the directions from the Go vernment authorities being, it is understood, not to inflict quarantine cm vessels which have had no new cases within six days previous to arrival in port. In consequence of the raging of yellow fever in the West Indies the officers of the Magdalena seem to dread the idea of returning there. We are informed that the Royal Mail Steam Company have recently allowed one of their most experienced medical officers to quit the service rather than allow him the assistance of a sick nurse and a pound or two extra pay per month. The directors seem to think that young and inexperienced surgeons are sufficient for the "exigencies " of yellow fever, whereas it would appear they are in duty bound not only to obtain the services of those who are in some measure habituated to the dread disease, but to provide assistants and capable persons as nurses when necessary. To show the necessity of this, we may remark, that Mr. Symonds, the surgeon of the Magdalena, (who has been most indefatigable in his duties) has not had one night's rest since he left St. Thomas. The human constitution can hardly stand such a strain as this for any length of time, and the state of a crowded passenger steam-ship, smitten with yellow fever and without a medical officer, would be something frightful to contemplate. At Dr. Symonds' suggestion, the sick on board the Magdalena were placed in tents upon deck. Without this precau tion many cases of indisposition would doubtless have ~~~ ce the in ed in )lt- ee, sh. ion on, to for ca. for pso, ood cell, ; ore- ton, can Lcia, Bay , 64 e 6, . 40 N, it. 6 ) N, ong. 6 S, 5 s, rs at was ad per qr. sus- Bar- Od.
