VISIT OF THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER TO OXFORD. The Chancellor of the Exchequer has taken the oppor tunity afforded by the Parliamentary recess to pay a visit to his constituents, and is spending a few days with the Regius Professor of Divinity. On Thursday a luncheon was given in the Hall of Balliol College, by Mr. Woollcombe, senior fellow and tutor, Mr. Lake, the senior proctor, and also fellow and tutor of that college, and Mr. Wall, the senior bursar, t o a large party assembled to meet the re-elected repre sentive of the University. Among the guests were the Vice-Chancellor, the Provost of Oriel, the Principal of Brasenose, the Warden of All Souls, the Master of Pem broke, the Principal of St. Alban Hall, the Junior Proc tor, Mr. Greswell, Mr. Ley, Mr. Gordon, Mr. Stokes, of Christ Church, Mr. Haddan, Mr. Wayte, of Trinity , Mr. Barrow, Mr. Hedley, of Queen's, Mr. Omerod, of Brasenose, Mr. Rawlinson, Mr. Fanshawe, of Exeter, M r . Heat, of Corp us, Mr. Goldw in Smith, of Univer sity, Mr. Price, of Pembroke, and Mr. Espin, of Lincoln, an d a large number of Masters of Arts, from various col leges, with several ladies. After the discussion of a roost liberal supply of viands, Mr. WALL rose, and after a few words, said, he felt sure that all would heartily join with him in wishing health and strength to the "Chancellor of the Ex chequer." The health was drank by the party, standing, and with hearty and continued applause. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER then rose, sup- porting himself with a stick on account of a temporary Ivmeness, and returned thanks in a speech of some length. He felt that the title under which his health had been proposed, conferred an honour upon him which was in a great degree undeserved, and certainly in the portrait which had just been drawn he had no little difficulty in recognising himself. Whatever he had obtained, whatever was best and strongest in him self, he felt that he owed to Oxford more than to an y peculiar exertions of his own. And it was a great satisfaction to him in mature life to be united by a fresh tie to the place of his education, a place from which he had derived the greatest advantages, of which he had always retained an affectionate recollection. He felt especially how much he owed not only to the c onfidence, but even to the indulgence of his consti envy, especially in that he was precluded by the etiquette of the University from giving such explanations as are usually given to other constituencies of his political con duct on certain critical occasions. He would now break through that etiquette, but would endeaVour to steer clear of politics, and especially of disputed political questions. But he wished, if it were not trespassing too much upon his audience, to say a few words on a sub- Sect of great interest to all those present—the legislation and general improvement of the University. (A general murmur of applause invited him to proceed.) In looking back on the histories of our Universities, he thought it would be found that from a very early period they had done their duty in taking the lead in the advancement of the English mind. In the dawn of renewed civilisation, in the struggles of the Reformation, in the succeeding generations, they had held their place ; b'it after the Revolution of 1638 they had for a considerable time had less in fluence, and shown less activity in directing the public mind. Great as had been the advantages of that revolution, it must be confessed that we had paid dear for them. Half a century of disputed succession had interrupted the legislative progress of the country, and diverted the public mind from such improvements as had been gradually advancing in other periods. And the Universities had been during that time apparently less efficient as to the general influence of their education. In the reign of George 111., they had resumed their ac tivity, and had even taken the lead in their part of the social improvements which had occupied the legislative mind of England since the beginning of the century. At the beginning of that period they were certainly in ad vance of the rest of the country; but the progress of the general mind was not only rapid but rapidly accelerated; and there were points now on which he thought that the advances made by the University were behind what the nation had learned to expect, and public opinion to demand. He considered that there was a body of men here in whom the country had confidence, and whom it regarded with feelings of respect and gratitude—the resident body of the University. He would venture to say, that if the House of Comna - ons afforded any criterion of public opinion, that opinion was on the whole friendly and respectful towards the University, but that the re taining of that confidence and respect depended much on the course now taken by the University itself. There were resources, both pecuniary and moral and intellec tual resources, which were not brought to bear on the proper work of the University, and which might be brought to bear upon it by such improvements as had al- ready been commenced in some of the colleges. With respect to that within whose walls they were assembled, he could say with satisfaction that he believed it was doing nearly the utmost that could be expected from the means it possessed. But it was well known that in other cases there were large resources not hitherto so usefully applied, and he trusted that all would co-operate in the endeavour to justify them selves in the eyes of the country by making the best use of their - means for the advancement of education. If the University would do its duty in this respect, especially by extending its advantages to more of the classes it now receives, and to as many as may be practicable of other classes, who partake less of its benefits at present, he felt confident that the country and the Parliament of England would maintain its independence, and would only desire that it should continue to put in practice those fundamental principles on which it had ever hitherto worked, of the authoritative inculcation of religious truth, and something like a domestic superintendence of pupils. But the continuance of public confidence depended on the course now pursued by the University. For him self, however.he might fail of his duty as the representa tive of the University, it could not be for want of an affectionate regard for its interests. He concluded by proposing the health of the Entertainers. Mr. WOOLLCOUBE returned thanks, and concluded by proposing the health of Mrs. Gladstone and the ladies present, The party then adjourned to the common-room, am speedily broke up. NOVA SCOTIA.-By the census returns of the province that have recently been published, it appears that the population of Nova Scotia, which in 1827 was 152,848 -including 30,000 in Cape Breton-has nearly doubled within the last 25 years, and in 1851 amounted to 276,117 souls, of which 54,778 formed the population of Cape Breton, the eastern section of the province. Of this number 73,701 were married persons, of both sexes, constituting nearly one-third of the entire population. The small difference between the number of males and females is a peculiar feature in the statistics of Nova Scotia, and is accompanied with this remarkable fact, that the males, except from the age of 20 to that of 40, attain a greater age than females-the relative numbers of both sexes, over 50 years of age, being 14,378 males and 14,223 females. From 20 to 30 years of age, the number of males was 20,277, and that of females 22,386; from 30 to 40 the excess diminishes to 14,665 females and 14,615 males ; beyond which ages, the number of males again predominates till the age of 50 years and upwards, in nearly the same proportion as in early life. There are 230 deaf and dumb, and 136 blind persons in Nova Scotia. Education is well attended to in Nova Scotia, where there are 1,096 schools, attended by 31,354 scholars. Of religious denominations, th ere are , belonging to the Ch urc h of England, 36,482 ; Roman Catholics, 69,634 ' • Kirk of Scotland, 18,867 ; Presby terian Church o f N. S., 28,767 ; Free Church, 25,280 ; Baptists, 42,243 ; Methodists, 23,596 ; Congregation alists, 2,639 ; Lutherans, 4,087 ; and the balance is made up of Universalists, Sandimenians, Quakers, and other denominations, for whose accommoda tion there are 567 churches, with 288 clergy men. There are 45,455 inhabited and 2,023 un i n h a bi te d houses, with 45,541 families. The grain crop of last year was 297,157 bushels of wheat, 196,097 of barley, 61,438 of rye, 1,384,437 of oats-of which 13,875 bushels were exported to the United States-170,301 of buckwheat, 37,475 of Indian corn, 1,986,789 of pota toes, besides large quantities of peas, beans, turnips, and other roots ; and the produce of the dairy were, 3,613,890 pounds of butter, and 6 52,069 pounds of cheese -of which a very excellent description is made in An napolis county. The estimated value of real estate is $32,203,692, and the assessed value of personal property, in eleven of the eighteen counties of which Nova Scotia and Cape Breton are composed, was $9,491,800. There were also, in 1851, employed in manufactures, 3,200 per sons, 3,895 mechanics, and 36,604 farmers. The num ber of acres of dyked land was 40,012, and of other improved lands, 799,310 acres ; that of horses was 28,789, of neat cattle 136,857, of mulch cows 86,856, of sheep 282,136, and of swine 51,533. The number of vessels employed in the fisheries, in 1851 was 812, with an aggre gate tonnage of 43,335 tons, navigated by 3,681 men ; and that of boats was 5,161, with 6,713 men. The number of seines and nets was 30,134, and the quantity of dry fish cured was 196,431 quintets, besides 1,669 barrels of salmon, 3,536 of shad, 100,047 of mackerel, 53,200 barrels and 15,400 boxes of herrings. Of the the mackerel, as will be seen by a statement below, 56,841 barrels were shipped to the United States. The value of leather manufactured was $220,500, of boots and shoes $294,616 ; and there were raised 114,992 chaldrons of coal, equal to about 153,000 tons. The value of imports during 1851 was $2,993,547, of which $827,100 were from the United States ; and the ex ports were $1,509 ; 24; of which $430,130 were to that country. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. LAMBETH.— Both the magistrates attended to de liver their judgment in the case of a summons that had been taken out by one cab proprietor against another cab owner for plying for hire within the station of the South-Western Railway, contrary to law. The case had been very ably and elaborately argued some weeks ago by Mr. Ballantine on the part of the complainant, and Mr. Crombie on behalf of the railway authorities, and the question at issue being one upon which several of the metropolitan police magistrates have differed, and also one of considerable importance to the railway com panies, the cab proprietors, and the public, the decision in this instance was looked for with much interest. _ _ Mr. Elliott—lf I am called upon to decide this case, I shall certainly never shrink from any responsibility that may be attached to it, and I will at once proceed to do so. The driver of the hackney carriage No. 2,581 was summoned for plying for hire elsewhere than at a standing or place appointed for that purpose. It ap pears to me, then, with great deference to the opinion of the magistrates who have given a different decision, that the driver of this hackney carriage, who was admitted within the railway station with the consent of the rail way company for the purpose of carrying passengers arriving by train, and there hired, is not liable to be convicted under this section as plying for hire elsewhere than at a public stand, any More than he would be if brought in direct for that purpose from a public stand— at all events, the point is too doubtful for me to con vict a party in a penalty without the power of appeal, and this summons must be dismissed. It was pressed upon me that the result of such a decision would be to deprive the public of the advantage of the provisions contained in these acts for the protection of passengers against the misconduct and extortion of the drivers of hackney carriages ; but it does not appear to me that any such result will take place. The carriages being licensed as hackney carriages, the proprietor will be liable for any misconduct or overcharge on the part of the driver, when hired within the railway station, in exactly the same manner as if hired on a public stand. On the other, it does appear to me to be a convenience to the public that a sufficient number of cabs should be ready at the various railway stations to convey the pas sengers arriving by train, and I am not aware that any complaint has been made on the part of the public in respect of the arrangements so made. It was stated by me on a former occasion that the opinion of the Attor ney and the Solicitor-General (Sir Frederic Thesiger and Sir Fitzroy Kelly), had been taken by the Home-office to assist the magistrates in coming to a correct conclu sion on this question ; but of course in that, as in every case before us, we are bound to exercise our own judg ment to the best of our ability. It may be satisfactory for me now to add that I have now before me a copy of the opinion of Sir F. Pollock, now the Chief Baron of the Court of Exchequer, a most distinguished lawyer, given in the year 1843 upon a case laid before him by the hackney carriage proprietors of the metropolis on this very point. The opinion alluded to by the learned magistrate was as follows : " I am of opinion that no penalty is incurred by plying for hire within and at a railway station. The station is privateroperty, and the drivers go in (being permitted to do soon the chance of being wanted; and this chance is better than that of an ordinary coach or cab stand, and it seems to me to be worth purchasing ; but on going there the parties do not violate any regulation. Elsewhere means elsewhere in some public place or street ; it was meant entirely for the protection of public places, and has no re ference whatever to any place that is purely private." Mr. Norton—For myself, I decline giving any opi nion upon the present occasion. lam not called upon to do so. The case was originally brought before one magistrate, and therefore I am at perfect liberty to with hold my opinion. I think there are only two courses to be pursued—one to take the opinion of the Court of Queen's Bench as the act provides in the cheapest pos sible way—the other that the railway proprietors and the Commissioners of Police should meet and make such arrangements as would give the public every conve nience, without any injury to the cab proprietors, and which weuld have the effect of producing a better order of vehicles for the general use of the public than are now found in the public streets. The summons was then dismissed. THAMES.—A well dressed buxom young woman came before Mr. Ingham, and having been ushered into the witness box, and directed to make her ap plication to the magistrate, she very oT avely asked if she could mar r y ano th er man w hil e her first husband was living. Mr. Ingham—No, certainly not. How can you think of asking me such a question ? The Applicant—l will tell your worship. I married a man who did not prove at all a g reeable to me, a n d in fact there was a mutual di s t as t e for each other soon after the honeymoon passed away, so we agreed to part, and not trouble each other in future, with leave for either to marry, and we both signed an agreement to that effect. Mr. Ingham—A cheap mode of divorce truly, but not a legal one. The Applicant, hanging down her head with much simplicity, said—l wish to settle in life, and—and (after much hesitation) I have found a young man who will marry me if your worship is agreeable. Mr. Ingham could not be agreeable to any such thing. If the applicant gotmarried again while her present hus bandk was living she would be liable to transportation for seven years. The- yonng woman dropped a curtsey, thanked the magistrate, and retired amidst the titters of the men and sly glances from the women in court. AUSTRALIA. By way of New York, advices have been received from Sydney, New South Wales, to the 20th September, which, although not of so late a date as the accounts re ceived direct, nevertheless contain some information of interest :—" At a sale of real estate in Brainwood, on the 15th of September, nine allotments sold for 2081. This was at the rate of over 451. per acre. About fifty acres of land near the Melbourne Benevolent Asylum were sold by the Government for 69,693/. ; the land was put up in quarter acre allotments, at 751. each, 9nd some of them sold as high as 6001. The average wages of seamen in Sydney are from 101. to 121. a-month. As most of those arriving in English ships receive only 2/. or 31., they desert as soon as the opportunity offers. Scores of seamen were skulking about the outskirts of the town, and hanging about the dens of the crimps. The desertion of ships' crews the moment they reached Sydney was a great evil, which prevented many ships from again putting to sea. The Herald recommends English shipowners to only engage seamen for the voy age to Sydney, and not, as has usually been the case, for the voyage out and home. It may be said to be impossible to keep seamen bound by articles giving wages of 2/. or 3/. per month, when the averages of the port of Sydney are 101. to 121. The seamen must be released, and re-engaged at the current wages, otherwise they will run away to the gold fields. Considerable at . tention was being paid to the cultivation of tobacco, al though the great deficiency of labour operates as a serious drawback upon agricultural improvements. The quantity grown in the country is equal to three-fourths of its consumption, but in quality it is very inferior to the im ported. This is attributable, not to any deficiencies in the soil or climate, but to the ignorance prevailing among the planters of the proper method of cultivation. One planter states that he raised a crop of upwards of forty tons, which was sold in Sydney at public auction at an advance of twenty per cent. more than the imported leaf. A great portion of the crop, he says, had leaves measuring two feet nine inches in length, and 18 inches wide, being larger than any known to have been grown in America. The average weight per acre was 25 cwt. ; whereas, by the public returns, the average of what is grown in Australia is only 17 1-7th cwt. The duty upon imported tobacco is about to be reduced, and hence an improvement in the quality of the native grown is strongly urged. The Sydney Morning Herald says : ' Instead of being importers of tobacco, we should, if it were grown here to perfection, be exporters of it to all our sister colonies ; and, in its raw state, also to the European markets. At present, for home consumption, there is a greater profit to be made by its cultivation, if skilfully managed, than in any part of the world, for the duty upon imported is a positive bonus to the grower.'" The Sydney Herald has been furnished with the rates of wages at Sydney by the employers in each department, as being there actually paid, and every means has been used to avoid exaggeration. We make the following ex tract from the tabular statement --" Stone masons re ceive Bs. to Bs. 6d. per day ; carpenters and joiners 7s. to 9s. ; common spadesmen and inferior building la bourers, ss. to 6s. ; painters and glaziers, Bs. 6d. to 95.; brickmakers, 18s. to 20s. per thousand ; carriers and draymen 15s. to 20s. per day. It is stated, by the lead ing architects and contractors, that hardly one-third of the men now employed in Sydney are effective, or fairly entitled to more than one-half of the wages demanded by them. Most of the best labourers in the building de partment are• in the gold fields." WALKING IS GOOD.—Walking is good : not stepping from shop to shop, or from neighbour to neighbour, but stretching out far into the country to the freshest fields, and highest ridges, and quietest lanes. However sullen the imagination may have been among its griefs at home, here it cheers up and smiles. HoweVer listless the limbs may have been when sustaining a too heavy heart, here they are braced, and the lagging gait becomes buoyant again. The mere breathing of the cool wind on the face in the commonest highway is rest and comfort, which must be felt at such times to be believed. It is disbe lieved in the shortest intervals between its season of en joyment ; and every time the sufferer has resolution to go forth to meet it, it penetrates to the very heart in glad surprise. The fields are better still, for there is the lark to fill up the hours with mirthful music, or at worst the robin and the flocks of fieldfares, to show that the hard est day has its life and hilarity. But the calmest region is the upland, where human life is spread out beneath the bodily eye—where the eye moves from the peasant's nest to the spiry town, from the schoolhouse to the churchyard, from the diminished team in the patch of fallow, or the fisherman's boat in the cove, to the via duct that spans the valley, or the fleet that glides, ghost like, on the horizon. —Miss Martineau. DUELLING ABROAD.—The Opinion of Turin, of the 24th, gives the details of the duel lately fought, on the territory of Piacenza, between Lieut. Ropolo, of the Piedmontese, and Capt. Giurich, of the Austrian army. The only circumstance worth noticing is, that the matter seems to have been conducted in the most public man ner, without any interference on the part of the authori ties, upwards of 2,000 persons having repaired to the ground, and regular wine-tents and other contrivances for the comfort of the spectators having been provided. It appears that Lieut. Ropolo, on his return, was put under arrest for a fortnight, and his seconds for eight days each, SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. OUNDLE STEEPLECHASES. Stewards—The Earl of Cardigan, Lord Burghersh, and Hubert de Burgh, Esq. A very delightful day's sport, in a delightfully pic turesque country, over grass land on the estate of Earl Cardigan, took place yesterday near the quaint town of Oundle. The weather was clear though cold, the stand substantially erected, and the arrangements well carried out. Indeed few meetings, with a rise in the character of the sport, and an increase of the fields, which would follow popularity, deserve better than this. The course is now three miles on the opposite side of Oundle to that of former years, and is an immense improvement' on the old one. The attendance from the metropolis was re spectable, and the events ran off with considerable punctuality. A Handicap Sweepstakes of 15 sous. each, 10 ft, with 100 sovs: added, the second horse to save his -stake, over about four miles of hunting country. 15 subs.

Proceed lost start, and soon after refused the brook, and ran into it, unshipping 011iver, and being out of the race. Johnny Barrie made = the running, Trust-me-not and Ploughboy following ; Forest Lad, Simple Peter, and Ex-minister in a group. Thus they went in and out of Glapthorne-lane, and round the further turn. Coming to the stand-field, Ploughboy lay next to Johnny Barrie, and these two were alternately changing their positions. Simple Peter fell in the rear coming home, and Ex-minister resigned. Ploughboy now got a good lead, Forest Lad lying a bit out of his ground, and both he and Trust-me:not blundering a fence from home. Finally, Ploughboy won an up-hill race by three lengths from Forest Lad, Trust-me-not third by four lengths from second, and Johnny Barrie fourth.

Kilwick first, Titbit second, Tough Tom third, and Slashing Painter fourth. An objection was lodged against the three first horses, for going the wrong side of the turning flag. It was sustained ; but it after wards appearing that the Slashing Painter had avoided crossing the brook a second time, he, too, was disquali fied, and the race declared void, to be run for the ad vertised money this day. The sports closed with— The Farmers' and Tradesmen's Steeplechase, over about three miles, five sovs. each, 25 added, for horses the property of farmers and tradesmen, &c.

Melon, Reindeer, and Sysonby went away together, but Sysonby soon got ahead, and kept it for two-thirds of the course. Melon, however, got to him and passed him, and Forward Miss being knocked down by Rein deer, both went out of the chase. Atalanta fell two fields from home. Finally, Melon defeated Sysonby by 20 lengths, the latter tiring at the up-hill finish. And thus ended a pleasant meeting, except the mishap which will produce the after-clap of this day.
