The following general regimental order has been issued from the Adjutant General's Office, Royal Artillery, Woolwich, signed 13. Palliser, assistant ' adjutant -general : " With reference to the War-office circular, of tho 9th of April, 1857, commanding officers of ar tillery •are reques•ed to call upon the officers in command of companies doing t,arrison duty under their orders, to furnish, with the least possible de lay, the names of two gunners and drivers whom they would recommend to be employed as artificers on the conditions therein laid down. " The men to be selected must have completed all their drills, and it is to be understand that their employment as artificers is not in any way to in-. terfere with their instruction as artillerymen, or their promotion to the rank of non-commissioned officers. " The names of the men to be selected are to be transmitted to this office by officers commanding Royal Artillery at each station or district" Yesterday the troops belonging to the Provisional Battalion at Chatham who were s-lected from the Indian depots for that duty were marched to the fortifications near Prince Henry's bastion, under the command of Captain L. N. D. Hammond, 90th Light Infantry, where they went through a variety of e 2 caladingoperations with the troops of theßoyal En-rineers, who are unde r th e comman d o f C o l . H .

Madden, 70th Regi ment; Lieut. R. E. Deare, 74Th Highlanders; Lieut. V. G. Coates, 86th Regiment; Ensigns W. Thomp son and R. P. Butler, 78th Highlanders. • The whole of the troops belonging to the Indian depots at Ch4tham are undergoing a course of instruction in escalading, in order to be made acquainted with those operations previously to joining the service companies of their corps in India. It has been deemed advisab!e that the troops in garrison at Pembroke should be encamped this sum mer at a short dist ance from the dockyard, and for this purpose land has been selected at a place called Fresh wat er-ea4—a spot about seven miles from Pembroke. The customary tenders for the supply of firewood and straw for bedding are to be imaied;- ately sent in, so that by June it is likely the troops will be under canvas. The place fixed upon is ex ceedingly open and healthy, and adjacent to the coast, so that there is every probability of the health of the troops being properly kept up. Freshwater east was the spot selected for the new musketry drill, in which the soldiers will doubtless be properly initiated.

SHEERNESS, MONDAY. The Curlew, revenuecutter, which was run down by the Baron Osy, Antwerp steamer, ebbed dry on the beach at Cockle-shell Hard this morning, when the vessel underwent a close examination ; the re sult was finding the bodies of 4 out of 7 of the un fortunate sufferers, who were, we may say, drowned in their beds, The names of those found were as follows Wm. Shepherd, second mate, in command. Edmund White, able seaman. Wm. Reading, able seaman. Joseph Matthews, ordinary seaman. Two silver watches were also found below, sup posed to, belong to Shepherd and Sweeney. There are still 3 bodies not yet found, which pos sibly may have floated out of the cutter— Henry White, boatswain. Alex. Sweeney, able Eeiman. W. Wheeler , able seamen. The bodies are not at all decompo3ed, and were inimediately identified by those who knew them when alive. The commander, W. Shepherd, was found in the fore part of the vessel. it appears that when under water and drowning, the poor fellow must have broken the bulh ad down, and s got out of his state room into that part of the vessel which was occupied by the crew. M. Hawkins, the ordinary seaman who was on deck and was the only one saved from the ill-fated cutter, is ordered to appear before the Privy Coun cil, Board of Trade, together with the commander and crew of the Scout cutter, who res cue d hi m f rom the wreck on F r id ay , th e Ist inst , and which was also lying close by him at anchor on the Mouse Sands, considerably out of the track of vessels run ning up that channel, when all the circumstances tociching this sad catastrophe will be brought to light. A coroner's inquest was to have been held this morning, but other urgent business prevented Lewis, E*q., (coroner), from attending. To-mor row, however, at 11, a 4ull body of 13 lieutenants, or naval officers, will assemble on board her Majes ty's ship Formidable, when they will adjourn to the Fly cutter, where the bodies are, to view them.

VICTORIA: The Melbourne Age of March 14 bears witness : —" During the last lour mouths the building trade of Melbourne has been brisker than at aray forgoer period. The activity has not at all dimirrshed up to the present time, and judging front tha largo number of first-class budding now in progress, both in town and suburbs, it will he a lone ere,there is a cry of no work. This state of things has c aus-gcl considerable demand for skill , d labour ; and me chanics generally art now receiving 25 pier cent. higher wages for the day.rof eight hours than they received twelve months since . for the day of ten hours. The following may be 'quoted as a fair ditto; carpenters,ston average of the wages now rulingin and about Mel bourne :—Bricklayers, 18s. , per day of eight hours ; 7i;6s s . to d n i e tto ca ; rv z s o , nr, § l . 6 t 3 o . a 2 O O . s ; .. stone cutters, labourers, 10s. to 125." ditt6; sawyers, I Os. rer 100 feet. As regards agricul'irral-lab, , ur, there is a geod demand in every part of the c luny, par ticularly in the remotedistrizts, such as GippsLan'l and the extreme western counties. A large number of Government contracts are also in- ore' a ion, and this tends to keep up the price of unskill-d labour. On many 'of the dgggings labdure'A o'n st 11 command a pound and in some instances even 255. a day. It must, howerer, be bone in mind that they are not what would be called labourers in the old country. They are men who can use the axe, the maul, and wedges, the adze and the cross cut saw. They can. go int • the fore 4 and tern out slabs for " a claim ou the gold fields. They can furnish, pal ng for a hut, and build it and furni4h it t r the satisfaction of the most fastidious of diggers' . wives. We must not be understood as stating that there is at present anything like a positive scarcity of labour throughout the colony, however. It is a long time since there was such an approach to an equilibrium between the demand and supply. The days of rapid fortune making seem to be - oVer at most of the diggings, and m;ning promises to be come for the future amenable to the ordinary vicis situdes of c munerce. At some of the diggiegs indeed lalnur has twen so scantily rewarded thst the people have deserted en masse. It is quite possible, too, that a very deserving and industrious person may reside in this busy city for weeks with out obtaining suitable work. Victoria is still the Paradise of hard handed labour ; but there is a plethora of professional men, surveyors, clerks, &c. Those who cannot positively "rough it" a little, had better stay at home. • Of the state of trade and shipping the Melbourne Age, of March 14, says : Already we are feeling: , the be . nefi's of regular steam counnunica.ion with the old country, simul taneously with the last traces of injury arising from excessive and ill-timed shipments. The rapid and regular communication with the home country will doubtless work wonders in reforming the system which hgs hitherto prevailed among British com mercial boos-s, but it is a pity that, at the, moment of the establishment of s earn postal service, our markets should once more Rave been swamped with goods in such immense quantities that it is almost utterly impossible for our population to con sume them. At no period since the memorable crisis of 1854 have our merchants felt such difficulty iu effecting an outlet for their goods. The trade has passed out of the hands of those who fortuetly held it—a new compering class has arisen—and those who were once the best custom , -rs of the ori ginal imparter4 are now found keenly contesting the market with them on almost equal grounds. Extensive retail dealers now find it worthwhile to commission buyers visiting England. to purchase for cash in the home markets such articles in their line as Australian buyers know will suit the colonial market. Melbourne traders willingly pay an ad vance of 2i per cent, on the ordinary commission for the execution of their orders by parties sl well up to what will suit the local trade. The more rapid steAmerintPrcommunication between Victoria and ---- England is likely to lead to quit e a commercial—re volution in purchasing from wholesale houses. The moneyed shopkeeper no longer depeiris for r. , cruit-' ing or supplying his stock upon English houses, nor on the selections and pricHS of colonial impor ters, when he coin avail himself of the services of one of his own class, who finds it worth while to become a special or general buyer for a good per cert tge. No rt)uht these steamers will be exten sively ii3ed in this way in future, and our mer chants should bestir themselves !Est they b 3 cut out of the market. Our imports continue to present a_large excess iponyur exports, amounting from J try Ito March 7 to - 174,0001. One of the chief points at present is the exceedingly depressed state of the flour market, but, as prices are now thought to have reached their minimum, and as there is a dis position to store goods, in anticipation of a better demand, the market is likely to take a start iu the right direction. Already there si-ems same im• provement ; as we have heard of some offers ht 141. 10s. for the three fine Adelaide brands, which wero refused. Horse food is very scarce, and seems t be the only class of article in which the market displays anything like activity, Colonial oats are in great demand at 9s. for good samples ; 9s. ; bran, 2s. to 2s. ld. For the latter salts have been effected at ls. 11d., but only in order to save storage. NEW SOUTH WALES. The political intelliaence from this colony is of inferior interest. The Minis, ry was exe edingly weak, and it was thought, whin the Buropean left, that a few days might seal its fate. The Assembly had voted 300,0001. to be ex pended on making rail: , ays. Mr. Donaldson, the colonial treasurer, had int.r9duced a bill authorising the government t borrow the looney. On the 23d of February a public meeting was held in Sydney for the formation of an Election Reform League. At present the representative system, by which the Legislative Assembly is elected, gives great dissatisfaction to a large num ber of the inhabitants, as throwing a preponderan.7e Of power into the hands of the pastoral occupants and a limited number of persons win are connected with them in interest. The chief objects of the League are to obtain a larger number of members for Sydney and the populous coustitueicies, aud to limit the right of suffrage in each elector to one electoral district. The attendance was very huge, and the feeling of the meeting decided. "Colonisation," says the Sijdney Empire, " is steadily advancing. Land is falling more generally into the hands of working capitalists ; new pursuits of industry are daily opening ; our power of pro duition is gaining strength, and the elements of prosperity at ound us are constantly becoming more healthy and s:cure." Ou conmercial affairs the same author:ty reports, under date March 14 : For some time past business in Sydney has been in a state of inactivity without b?ing positively de pressed. Many articles are comman d g, at first, hand, good paying prices, but scarcelyany commodity hay been susta ned at a really high figuie. Extravag .nt profits may be considered at an end. The subsid ing process seems to have reached the stage of com mercial healthfulness, and transactions are be ginning to adjust themselves to the laws of supply and demand, something after the condi tion of older countries. Our external commerce is connecting us with ports and conntries with which, unt,l a recent date, we bad little intercourse. The ship Maria Magdalena, a fine Dutch barque, clearel out this ray for Antwerp with a full cargo of colo nial produce, valued at nearly 40,0n0/., and shipped by Messrs. lullendorff and Co. This is the first vessel that took a cargo of Australian produce to Belgium, and we are glad to see our trade with that industrious country thus opening. "The following are the quoted prices of gold at Sydney :—Meroo, Si. 15s. 6d. per oz. ; Adelong, 31. 14s. per oz. ; Stoney Creek, 31. 14s. 6d. per oz. ; Sofala and Turon, 3/. 13s. per oz. ; Braidwood, 3/. 12s. 6d. per oz ; Hanging Rock, 3/. 12s. - 6d. per oz. ; Rocky River, 3/. is. 6d. per oz. ; Rocky Rver (clean), Si.' 128. 6d. per oz. ; Omeo, 3/. ss. 6d. per oz. English sovereigns per cent. premium. American coins at a premium. Chili= coins at a discount. French gold and silver coin at a discount. In the Sydney Morning Herald, March 10, we read : " The amount of gold dust imported into the Sydney branch of the Royal Mint, for the purpose of coinage, during the mouths of January and February, 1857, has bem about 23,442 ounce. The amount of gold coin issued has been 84,000 sovereigns and 60,000 half- sovereigris : total value, 114,0001. The revenue, exclusive of the gold "duly, which is now in force, and which is deducted on all gold sent to the Mint for coinage, would therefore he something like 1,1001. to 1,200/.

The arrangements for the great !event of to morrow have advancei so rapidly during the past fortnight its to leave not the least shade of alarm on the minds of those connected with them lest all should not be concluded and in order at the re quired moment. Out of the chaos of preparations which seemed to prevail so recently in every por tion of the Exhibition Palace the diligent and almost incessant labours of the numerous heads of departments and their efficient corps of subordi nates quickly made apparent the cert duty of com pletion within the time specified of everything ne cessary to the grand result. So confid-nt of toe general progress were some of those officially con cerned in the work that the opening of the Exhibi tion even a week ago was not considered an impos sibili'y. However, a more d lib,rate and careful termination of so many simultaneous proceedings was, of course, more conducive to the satisfactory state of affairs which now presents itself. The re mark has frequently been made during the last month, by persons who have had experience of the difficult preliminaries att , nding on such vast col lections of wealth and magnificence as have n , rw become almost annual events, that the arrang-- ments for the Manchester Exhibition were much more advanc , rl than those of any that have pre ceded it had b-en within the same time. An inspection of the various departments to-day make, it evileut that what has be n done in time that was considered so ample for the purpose has been done effectually, and that nothing beyond a few finishing strokes are now wanting to complete the enterprise which is to attract millions of ad mirers, and will to-morrow be inaugurated with so much splendour. The walls of the gr. at central hall are now filled with that unrivalled display of British portraits which is one of the great di-tinc tons of this Exhibition. The space between the walls is now completely furnished with the various components of the general museum,—the glass cases filled with costly rarities, the armoury, which is said to surpass any other in England, except that in the Tower, and the long lines of sculpture, at present shrouded in protecting canvass, but all ar ranged iu their proper order. The great area is filled in every part with its treasure:l Contents, and no space is left unoccupied except what is necessary for the passage of crowds of visitors. In anticipa tion of to-morrow's ceremonial the central passage is already barked from end to end with several rows of sects, multitudes of chairs fill every availa ble opening, and at the intersecton of the nave and transepts, and surrounding the dais to which Prince Albert and his suite will be conducted, the grand floor is now covered, and the galleries above will this evening tie furnished with the requisite aco-rm moda i in for such a great assemblage of spectators as is counted upon. Provision has bee n mad 9,000 poison?, and it is confidently reckoned thatfo 7,000 will be present. The great the west end is all ready to receive. the 500 mu sicians who have been engaged for the occasion ; and rising above it is the grand organ, graceful in its form and its decoration-, and flanked by por traits of her Majesty and Prince Albe t. The roof of this end of the building is adorned with banners brilliantly c oloured, inscribed wi h the names of great artists, and bearing also the arms of the d iff eren t countries which have g i ven b irt h to them. The long side galleries of ancient and modern pictures want only such completaness as a few hours will give them ; the water colours are nearly all placed ; the Oriental Court appears quite in its destined order ; and the photographs, engravings, and miniatures are being hung with great rapidity in those portions of the various galleries, where, from some cause or another, the conclusion of the work has been delayed till almost the last moment. It may be mentioned, in con clusion of this brief summary, that the police ar rangements are such as to leave no fear of order being preserved throughout the city and all along the line of route by winch Prince Albert will pro ceed to open the Exhibition, and which, no doubt, will be thronged with immense crowds of people from one end to the other. Temporary platforms for their reception have been erected at many places, and the charges for these, as well as for every other species of public accommodation, have been confidently axed at such a scale as is sure to t be remunerative. ' QUICK LEGISLATION. - . (From the Times' Correspondent.) NEW YORK, APRIL 21. The State Legislature of New York adjourned on the 18th, having pasSed 650 bills; jeutnic and private, in a session of 100 d a ys. Th e moa t im portant are the Acts by which the municipal char ter of the city of New York is amended and the system of police remodelled. Old New York is as unwilling to be reformed as the Corporation of London, and threatens to resist the innovations as " unconstitutional." The Republican plerty predo minates in the Legislature of the State, while the city is still under the sway of the democracy; the ceuntry has carried the new bills aglifist the influ ence of the city, which protests against provincial interference, with its abuses. It is said the vali dity of the new Acts will be tested in'the courts of law, which wo ild be equivalent to throwing the government of the city in o Chancery, and leave it for somee tigee without any leeriLer. constituted authorit es- It WI, or plunge it into a conflict be tween tie new system and the old. The placid public, tliateloes nothing in these coetests but look on and pa the costs, is, in i t s s l ugg i sh way, favour abie* sges, on the ground that no possible change could e for the worse, and some tifth them appear to be real improvem en t s . B ut the profes si nal' rulers, who take all the wo r k ai f self-govern ment out of the hands of the community, are more active, and from them come the threats of resist ance. The State Senate devoted the last moments before, the adjournment to parsing a series of resolutions, founded on the decision o f th e Supreme Court in the case of Dred Scott., and intended ,as a protest against it. It resolved that the State of New York " will not allow slavery witlen it , borders, in any form or.under any pretence, or for any time, however short.;" it also declares that the Supreme Court of the Uni•ed States his, by its decision, identified itself with a "sectional and aggress ye party," and "impaired the reap.-et and confidence toe people ? of the Stakes." felt in it. At the meeting of the Town Council and Board of Aldermen yesterday the threats of resistance to •he new order of things took a more definite shape ; ;he aldermen empowered the men to retain pos session. of all proper-y belonging to the present Police Department, and to refu , e obedience to any orders of the new police commissioners crested by the Act. Tile councilmen directed rite 1-gal adviser of the corporation to examine the new Acts at .d to make a report on them, end obtain if 'necessary other professional opinions upon their validity ; all the municipal officers, till such report is received, are instructed to do nothing ttiat can be construed into an acceptance Of the new charter, and if any attempt is mide to enforce it, o any part of it, resistance is to be male in the courts of law, which will, at all events, secure delay. A sum of money is to 11 voted from the city funds to defray the first ex p enses of eensiastions and readings, and at tins point toe matter rests. The ift?ct movement will probably take all parties into the regions of quo warranto and mandamus, into which the courage to follow them, even in anticipation, utterly fails. Nothing further has transpired with regard to the Chinese mission. Mr. Reed is preparing for his departure, or rather the dockyards are prepar iug the frigate in which he is to sail, which will be one of the finest in the American Navy. Mr. Reed wilt leave about the beginning of June. The case of the persons arrested here on the charge of defrauding the French Northern Railroad Company is not yet decided. The question pending is whether their offence renders them liable to extra ditiou under the treaty. It c +me on again a fewdays since, and may be considered near its termination, as Carpentie, one of the accused, pleaded guilty, and is to be admitted States' evidence by the prose cution against his fellow-prisoners. Tne rumours of two brilliant victories gained by Walker over the Costa Ricans at Rivas have not been confirmed by the arrival of the Tennessee. Nothing is known the movements of the force on the Pacific side of the isthmus. But, as has been the case after all reports Of victories in that quar ter, the Tennessee brought a perfect budget of disasters that have occurred to the detachment of Walker's men which has been confined to the At lantic side by the occupation of the river San Juan. When the previous accounts left Lockridge with his recruits, was preparing to ascend the river and to. force a passaete by taking Castillo, an attempt in which CoL Titus so sign illy failed. The expedition left Punta Arenas in. the Joirn Sc •tt steamer, but on arriving at the fort they found the Costa Ricans had.so strengthened it by outworks and barricades that any atra± on it with such a force was impos sible. Lockridge retired, and, despairing of the sue ' cess of any further efforts on the Atlan.ic side, re solved to attempt to retch Walker by way of Pana ma. He called on the men, aft r ;hey were re-em ' barked, to deseend the river, to volunteer for the enterprise; about 100 offered to go with him, but 200 refused, considering the case deperate. Those who refused were, luckily for themselves, put on hoard a small iron steamer that accompanied the John Scott, and followed her down the river. They were approaching Serabique on the 2d April, wh,.n the John Scott, with the Walker volunteers on board, ran on a sandbank, and in a few minutes afterwards her -boil,r expl , ,ded. Thirty men were instautly killed, and 50 others wounded and scalded. The s‘ cruller became a week and sank iu 8 feet of Water. The iron boat to , k the survivo:s oil board —the wounded were placed iu a la, ge hunch and towed down to Punta Arenas, s 'venal dying on the wey. Lockridge escaped by being in the fore part of the boat at the time; his second officer, General Wheat, "an old Mississippi traveller," wi.h a practisedearforexploaionstheiefore, jumped overboard at the first suspicious crack, and saved himself; others were blown into the water and escaped, but eight officers and the engineer are among the killed. The latest return gives the num b sr of those killed and missing at 60, and the total of the casualties at 85. Ou the arrival of the boat at Punta. AI eliae the surgeons of the English squa dron were sent pu shore with proper appliances, and did their utelost to 1 sseu the sufferings of the scalded men, an act of humanity which the local reports gratefully record. Those of the sick and, wounded who were in a condition to be moved were put on beard the Tennessee and brought on to New York, where they lauded in a m serable state of deetitu; ion. They were relieved by a promptly raised subscription, and those who h ave no f r i ends or New. York will be sent to their homes by fres passes on the rail Ways. As the "army" thu.4 mel away by failure, desertion, starvati,,n, fever, and st e amboat explosions, the quarrels of the officers about rank and precedence increase, and there ape pear to be colonels and generals enough left on the Isthmus to furnish a full division, though the num ber of men remaining ou the Atlantic side cannot exceed 150. The Nia _ara frigate, which has been detained for some da) a by an aecidebt to her engine, and sine the damage wag repaired by bad weather will sail to-morrow tor Ettgtaud to take on board la pOrtiots of the Ocean Telegraph cable. AQUATICS. TRADESMEN'S FOUR-OARED RACE. The u3einbers of the Pin - .lien and Onelee& Unity Bow. ing Club cpeneu their season yesterday with a very spirited four-oared race, from Haminhrsmith-bridge to Battersea. bridge, for five silver cups for the first boat. Toe weather was boisterous, and taking that into con. sideration, the rowing altogether was very good. The following was the result : Messrs. G. Blythe Messrs. H. LidyardW. W. Allen J. Rsgbes W. Fennell, coxswain ................. (White) 1 Messrs. W. Belcher I M essrs. A Cole • A. Batts Hallday A. Fox, coxswain ....................... (Pink) 0 Messrs. F. Lidyard I Messrs. C. Watts W. Cusack C. F. North E. Ague, coxswain William Blake was umpire. The start was n very capital one. All went off together, and went over a mile of ground, with scarcely any difference between them. Just below the Crab Tree, the nose of Pink's boat be. gan to show in front, both the others being still close. In this wanner they got tireraven Cottage, when White gradually left the'rear gudrd, and led the van in another minute by a length, which they had increased to lengths at Putney-bridge. After passing the Crab Tree, Blue began to fall off in pace, owing, it was said, to one of the crew being taken ill, and the race afterwards Jay entirely between the other two. White steadily increased their lead after going through Pitney-bridge, and won by four lengths. THE AMERICAN MAILS.--The British and North American Royal Mail Steam-ship Company's steamer Asia, Captain Edward Lott, lift the Mersey on Satur day afternoon for New York with the usual malls, a full cargo, and 60 passengers. LETTER FROM MAZZINI.—The treasurer of the Ha;rick Italian Committee has received the following letter from Mazzini, accompanied wi h an acknowledgement of a talm of money collected in Hawick in aid of the fund ftr the emancipation of Italy :—" My dear sir,—win you. be so kind as to forward the enclosed to the committ ee , and with it my most sincere t hanks for your noble exer tions in a noble cause.
