Taking the average state of our re venue for the last three years, the colony is in a condition to meet a legislative pledge to make the interest a first charge on the revenue — ordinary and territorial. Ten millions will be re qttired, but not in one year. if we vote 600,0001. as a first charge to meet interest at 6 per cent., at the present rite of 6 per cent. debentures that vote would raise 10,500,000/. But if we pour, from 1,500,0001. to 2,009,0001. on the market every year for the next three or four years, we may expect some decline in the price of the security, simply be cause interest of money would necessarily rise, and that decline of price would cause them to be more sought after in the London markets. If the Govern ment seeks its market here, a large propoition of these debentures would, no doubt, find their way to England as remittances, so that, although in the first instance we shall borrow here, the ultimate lenders will the English capitalists. If we secure to the lenders the due payment of the interest on the capital expended on railways, it is of little import ance to them whether the railways pay a dividend or not. The lenders do not depend on the profita bleness of the enterprise as shareholders would do. They are in the position of the English lenders to the Government for the purposes of war expendi ture. I will even go further, and assert that to us the profitableness of the undertaking is of secondary importance. - If the railways pay the annual expense of management, together with wear and tear, they may afford a great national gain, and may greatly promote the increase of national wealth by the sav ing of the cost of transport all over the country. At present the waste of capital in mere transport is enorm-us. If by an annual charge on the general revenue of 600,000/. we enable the community to save three or four times that amount in the cost of carriage, the national gain is all the difference, thongh the railway only pays the cost of keeping it in working order. Our first experiment has been very successful. Though the Hobsou's Bay Railway, constructe 1 wit- n common labour was at its highest, and when all materials were twice their present prices, cost nearly, if not quite, 100,0001. a mile, it pays a dividend of 14 per cent. Ttie St. Kilda branch, which cost only about 30,0001. per mile, will pay much more. The former depend= principally on its goods traffic, the latter svholly on passen gers. Our great railways will depend chiefly on the former, and I believe will pay a dividend at least equal to the interest. A census of the population was taken on the night of the 29th of March. The details are not yet before the public, but the totals have been published, and I enclose the statements made up in accordance with the electoral divisions of the colony. It will be seen that between 1854 and 1857 the total population has increased from 236,776 to 403,519, being an increase of 70 per cent. in three yell-F. There is an improvement in the proportion of the sexes, though the proportion of females to males is still lamentably small. The following is a comparative statement of the two enumerations • Percentage Males. Femalee. Total. Females to 100 Males. Census of 1854, 155,875 80,930 236,776 51 . 9 Census of 1857, 253,116 115,403 403,519 56.3 In 1854 there were vary few Chinese in the colony ; now there are 40,000, all males. If we deduct these from the males, the population of European rice will be 218,116 males and 145,403 females, or 66 . 6 females to every 100 males. The House of Assembly has resolved, by a clear majority of the House, 31, which is necessary un der the constitution, to abolish State aid to reli gion at the end of 1859. This motion was remark able as disclo-ing ono of "the arrangements . ou minor matters" alluded to by Mr. Haines, on which the present Miuis'ry is acting. Mr. Haines, the Chief Secret iry, who has always been opposed to the abolition of the 53d clause, giving 50,0001. a year in aid of public worship, &c., to Christian sects, now voted with the majority. So did 0 Sha naesy. Though the opponeuts of State aid rejoice in tLe result, 1 do not think the vote of Haines and O'Shanassy will do either of them much ood. The colleazues whom Mr. Baines threw over board, and who continue sole" abut It, are Ismer to sneer at his sudden change of opinion, but O'Shanassy's vote has silenced the opposition aeaiust Haines. It is troublesome question out of the way. The Government Bill for the management of the Crown lands has given great dissatisfaction. They have carried. the second reading by a majority of 10, but it will be greatly cut up in committee. It is highly favourable to the squatters and injurious to small c-hpitaliits who desire to occupy land. If it pass in its present state, no labouring man who has the least ambition to become a small farmer should be advised to come to this country, even though his passage be paid. If he be a mere hewer of wood and drawer of water, content with good wages and chest) rum, without any desire to raise himself, he may come. The Argus makes the gold shipped amount to 1,236,428 ounces, value 4,945,712/., or about 10,000,000/. a-year. The Herald's account is more.

The Tasmanian Assembly is prorogued. I send the speech of Sir H. Young : " Hon. Gentlemen of the Legislative Council and Gen tlemen of the House of Assembly,— " I congratulate you that, for the present, your labours are brought to a close, and dart*, notwithstanding occa sions of hindrance, you have been able to pass some useful and necessary measures. The progress of public business could scarcely have been expected to be free from interruption in the initiation of Parliamentary Govern• ment, and Tansmania has only shared in the experience of other Australian colonies; but the hope may be in dulged, and is even already justified, that with extended acquaintance with that farm of government, its principle and practice will be modified and adapted to local cir cumstances, and its successful results will prove not less than were anticipated from its re-adoption. Among the measured' which you have passed I enumerate with par ticular satisfaction, as being calculated to correct incon veniences that have been hitherto felt, or otherwise to the public service,— " The Act to restore the jurisdiction of the Court of Requests for the disirict of Hobart Town ; " The Act for the better securing the independence of the judges of the Supreme Court; "The Act to abolish the exclusive jurisdiction of certain magistrates ; and "The Public Works Loan Act, in which provision is made towards connecting Tasmania by submarine cable with the electric telegraphs and the main-land of Aus tralia. "I regret that you have not been able to devise any measure in respect to the sale and settlement 'of the waste lands in the colony ; but I fully admit and ac quiesce in the expediency of posponing till the next session of Parliament the adoption of any bill on this subject, as preferable to its being legislated on in a crude and partial manner, which would require amendment at a future period.

The primary and immediate obj act of Company is to Ivy down a Telegraphic Cable in the Red Sea, between Suez and Men, so as to affect telezraphic communication thus far with India at the earliest possible period. This object may be completed in a few months, simultaneous'y with the Mediterranean telegraph to Alexandria. l'y this means communication with all India will be brought within one week, and by the extension to Kurrachee, which will Im mediately follow, hourly communication will be established. Toe political value of this undertaking at the present juncture is too painfully established by recent occurrences in India to require comment, while its social and commercial importance Is scarcely less urgent. file Honourable the East India Company participate ro fully in these views, that they have constaited to guarantee a minimum an ooat.r.-oono of 20,0001., on the first section to Aden, from the date of the first message received, accompanied by assurances of every necessary assistance and support. This arrangement only awaits the confirmation of her Majesty's Government, without which the Company will not proceed. As a commercial investment, the returns, which have been care fully, prepared, and which may be inspected at the office, show a profit tar exceeding any ordinary returns from similar enterprises. This statement will be appreciated by those connected with the trade of India, to whom it will be evident that all orders for pro duce, insurance, shipments, arrivals, departures, accidents, change of destination cf vessels, &c,. would be subject of telegraphic com mtmication. It is proposed, as soon as the capital is subscribed, to purchase the Atlantic Cable, or provide a new cable, whichever may be decided to be best for the object in view. The cable will be laid in sections of from 300 to 600 miles, and err angements have been made with responsible contractors to under take the risk of laying it. The Company have secured the necessary concessions from the Turkish and Egyptian Governments. The urgency of the undertaking is universally admitted. The re munerative results are placed beyond all doubt. Perfect immunity from ail risk is secured by the Limited Liability Act, and by the gua rantees of the Government, the East India Company, and the con tractors. As a great and important national qt.estion, it is only neces sary to urge upon all who feel any interest in securing immediate telegraphic communication with India to give their earnest and cor dial suppoi t to an enterprise which is brought before the public with this soleobje t.

The following is from a letter dated Melbourne, June 25 : The European, with the April mail, dropped anchor in Hobson's Bay on Saturday, the 6thinst:, a little before midnight. Having delivered her mail bags, she sailed on Sunday for Sydney, and as there is no other steamer belonging to the com pany either here or in Sydney, she is appointed to return with the June mails eight days after the proper day of departure. The Columbian will bring us the May mail, and then we must expect another hiatus arising out of the Oneida's disaster. I mentioned in my last that the Government had offered for tender 187,0001. of debentures, bearing 6 per cent. interest. The days of payment ranged from the Ist of Jan., 1858, to the Ist of Jan., 1869. Miles, Kington, and Co., a mercantile house here; obtained the short date debentures at 1031. 2s. Bd. for remittance. They will be worth at least that in the London market, and, as bank bills of exchange would cost them 2 per cent. pre mium, they will reap a fair advantage from the purchase. The savings bank purchased the next five parcels, payable 200, or. 20,0001., every year frcien 1863 to 1867, at 1051. The Government re tain the remainder, for which, however, there is ample demand. Melbourne Gas Company's 6 per cent. debentures, payable 1867, have also been sold at 1051., and South Australia 6 per cents. at 1041. I was informed by one of our most intelligent gold and money brokers that there is a marked prefer ence given to our Government debentures above all other securities, and that the shortness of the date is the only feature which limits their price. Money is very plentiful, and can be had on wort gage as low as 7 pee cent. on substantial town pro parties if no more than two-thirds of the present value be required. I have already alluded to the large amount of accumulated money capit seeking investment, and as the subject is of great import ance to the mercantile interest coon CtA with these colonies, I must return to it. The motives to accumulate here at e in full activity, chiefly be cause all adverse inducements are weak. In Eng land there are numerous means of indulgence to which the successful merchant or manufacturer is attracted, which have little or no place here. He may make an eldest son, and found a family in England, whereas here such a course would be against the habits and opinions of society. In Eng land he may become a gr., at book c illect r, or a great picture collector, or lie may indulge in al sorts of expensive tastes, which, if they exist here, are latent for 'want of objects. Our great money makers seem to derive tueir chief enjoyment from the mere pleasure of playing the game. So ftr as personal enjoyment and comfort ate concerned, I really see I , ttle or no difference between the expeuditu: e of 2,0001. a-year and that of 5,0001. or 10,0001. a year. If the maximum of enjoyment be purchase able with 2,030/. or 3,0001. a-year, those who make three or four times as much, having no motive t') ex pend it, acquire the habit of accumulating from the mere absence of all other inducement. 13. is a min of great wealth, made by his own intelligence, Energy, and abstinence. His income is, say 20,0001. a-year. If he lived in England he would perhaps do as old Sir R Peel did, send h's son to Oxford, buy him a seat in Parliament, and give him the opportunity of making himself Prime Minister ; or he might have him highly trained -for the bar, and place the youth's foot on the first step of the ladder to the woolsack. Ho might also encourage the fine arts, as Mr. Vernon did, by making a large collec tion of the works of modern artists, and att.q.wards present his collection to the na'ion. Here, how ever, he trains up his son in the pa h he his himself trodden, places him a. a clerk in a merchant's office or a bank at 16 or 17 years of age, and hopes the son will follow in his own footsteps. The in ducements to accumulate will be weakened most likely in the son's time by the strengthening of the inducements in favour of other and higher enjoy ments ; but at present the former greatly outweigh in strength the latter. There is a marked difference 1 etween Tasmania ana vi,boiiii, which has some eft - tots in rivouring the accumulation of money capital here. The practice of selling land in place of granting it was adopted in 1831, by what are kucesn as Lord Ri pon's regulations. This was shortly after the pub lication of Edward Gibbon Wakefield's letter from Sydney, containing his plan for selling land at a fixed uniform price, and devoting the proceeds to the transmission of young couples or young pereons of both sexes to the colonies. Before that the Go vernment, desiring to change the charact r of Van Diem-n's Land from a territorial gaol to a colony, had offered great encouragement to free emigrants of the employing class. Such as could show that they bad capital obtained a in iximurn grant of 2,400 acres, and were also ass goal servants to cultivate it. Having improved the first grant, they had no difficulty in obtaining another and another. In this way a body of country gentlemen grew up, and there are now many beautiful estates with large parks around the mansions, with en closures surrounded with whitely) n ledges, intersected by good roads managsd by the resident owners. These gentlemen form the body of the country magistracy, and often represent their coun ties in the Legislature. Many of tht m hive become wealthy, but nearly all they have mi.de his gone to the improvement of their e tates and the increase of their flocks and herds, and their gains do not mate rially swell the annual amount of capital seeking in vestment in the ordinary securities. In this colony we have no such class. There may he a few persons who dwell upon their own " purchased land," and have built good homesteads ; but they are not nu merous enough to form a distinct and conspicuous class. The colony was not settled until long after the land regulations of 1831 had been in full opera tion, and it was.sett'ed by squat'ers who acquired no permanent interest in the soil, but ply a tem porary and revocable interest in the herb age. These "pastoral tenants of the Crown" divide 1 the whole country among them. Gradually the great squat ters succeeded in squeezing out the smaller squat ters. They have always looked wi h dissatisfaction upon the progresa of cultivation, and they have usually been at war with the rest of society t secure a perpetuation of their monopoly, and prevent the progress of settlements, which they regarded as en croaching on their vested rights. To return to my subject. If speculative consign ments to this colony and New South Wales are kept in due check, if our import trade is left to the control and regulation of our importing merchants, I do not apprehend any commercial revulsion from an excess of supply as compared with the effectual demand. If we have any revulsion and glut it will arise from circumstances which will tend to impair the demand, and not from those which tend to ag gravate the state of the supply. Overtrading in house building would have that effect ; over-specu lation in land would operate in the same way. I say this because credit is often extensively resorted to in both these enterprises. The building and house-owning interest is now in the ascendant. They have no difficulty in obtaining large discounts from the banks, and this is almost the only way in which, to any extent, credit is made to swell the amount of building speculation. To some ex tent, but in a minor degr e, money is also raised by way of mortgage for building purposes, but by this means the day of reckoning is more remote. The necessity for meeting the three months' bills makes previous overtrading conspicuous the moment the banks take the alarm, and " put on the screw" by refusing renewals. Within a few months about a million and a half of capital has been proposed to be raised by new projects—payable by instalments. The Hobson 'a Bay Railway Company propose to raise 150,000/. additional capital. A company to extend the line from St. Kilda to Brighton requires 125,0001. ; another railway, to Brighton via Richmond, Prahran, and East St. Kilda, 300,0001. ; a new bank, on the mutual principle, 500,000/. ; a new insurance company, 200,0001. ; the calls of the Colonial Bank of Australasia, 100,000/. ; an omni bus company, 100,000/._ lue we have nearly 1,500,000/ , irrespective of the demand of the Go vernment for capital to carry on the several pro jecte.d lines. Now, if a check upon our commercial prosperity does take place within the next 18 months or ttv: years it will originate, not ae the revulsion 1854-5 did, in excessiveimportation s over aid ab ove t o ut very large demand, but from our impaired chasing power, brought abou t b y ou r private works, going a lasts, a too fast in public, semi-public, d requiring constant accretions _ta onsfctiive at capital in capital in the first i n stance, sub the second instance. hat groupg for the least i appre- At present I see .no h NCI VI is gain. onto 4 hension, but ther e is enough Naval and Military Intelligence.

The reports from the mining districts have bees encouraging this weer. At the new fields known as " Ararat" and " Armstrong's" large numbers of miners have assembled drawn together by the extravagant reports th a t were fiyirg about. A large extent of shallovrainkings boa been opened up, and the result has been that the escort returns have risen up from 150 oz. to 1,100 oz. in the space of a fortnight.

The money-market has been very quiet during the - month that has elapsed since our last summary. - There has been a tendency to speculation in local joint-stock undertakings, but this has been confined in the main to a small knot of capatalists who have not been joined by the public. The chief event of the month has been the opening of the tenders for the new issue of debentures by the Goveroment. Those of this series having the shortest dates to run-70 of 1001. each, payablejannary, 1858, and 130 of 1001. each, payable January, 1859, were taken up by Messrs. Miles, Kington, and Co., for the purpose of remittances, at 1031. 2e. 81 per deben ture, and will be issued for the English market, principal and interest being made payable in London. One thou sand debentures falling due in parcels of 200 each suc ceeding year from 1863 to 1867 inclusive were taken up by the Commissioners of Savings-banks at the uniform rate of 1051. Os. 61. These will be issued payable in Melbourne, acd the amount, 105,0251., may be said to represent the contribution towards the loan by the humblest class of colonial capitalists. The unaccepted tenders have not yet- been made public, but by a subse quent notice in the Gazette we perceive that those for which no tenders were accepted on the Bth inst. are now pnrchaseable at the Treasury. They consist of 200 de bentures, of 1001. each, payable in 1860 ; 200 payable • in 1861 ; and 200 payable in 1862. Tne tendet.cy to speculation in the shares of colonial undertakings to which we have alluded has, however, caused a grew' er demand for money. It is, however, a satisfactory sign of the times that the banks generally • have not encouraged the loaning of money on the deposit of shares. City of Melbourne Six per Cent. Debentures An. _in IRII7 1 ttir 7 Six yer Cents, at 104. A parcel of Bight per Cent. Debentures, bearing the guarantee of the New Zealand Government, and falling due in 1865, have been offered in the market at par. There has been a con tinuous attempt to move up the price of the shares of the Melb Airt,e Gas Company, but in the abzence of any re ported transactions we are still unable to quote them ; 30,000 additional shares in this company are about to be issued. Colonial bank shares are saleable at 31. 10s, 6d., wish few in the market under 3/. 12s. H o b son ' s B a y Railway have been done at 91 to 92 for cash, and at 95 for account. _ Although for speculative purposes money is not abun dant, it is readily obtained on the security of landed property at 8 per cent. The banks are charging 7 per cent. for bills under 60 days' currency. OUR SIBERIAN CONTEMPORARY. The first number of a new Russian journal, called the Irkutsk Gazette, appeared in May last, under the managi meat of M. Spechneff. It is divided into two parts—the official one, containing the measures of the Government ; and the non-official one, reserved for local news, and articles on Siberia. Six numbers have appeared, and the non-official part is exceed ingly interesting. Siberia is a new country, which presents a great variety of soils, products, and inha bitants, and each article contains things new, not only to Europe, but to Russia. The last number con tains, among other articles, the recital of a journey made in 1855, by a Russian missionary, in the island of Chiachkotax, in the Archipelago of the Kuriles. Accompanied by a native, the priest as cended to the summit of a volcano in the island, sa expedition attended with both difficulty and(' an ger. His clothes were torn to pieces in passing throhgh the briars which grew on the edges of the precipices over which he had to climb. On reaching the summit, he found himself at the mouth of the crater, from which a dense smoke and a complete shower of ashes were being thrown out. The bor ders of the crater were covered with fine sulphur. Several springs of boiling water were also found in the island. One of them was close to the sea- s id e , and the steam might be seen ascending to some dis tance ; but only at low water, as at other times it was covered by the sea. Earthquakes are very fre quent in this island. Dining the summer of 1854 and spring of 1855 they were so violent it was im possible to stand during the oscillations. Besides such articles as this, the Gazette publishes the prices of different merchandise. Meat at Irkutsk, which not very long since cost the inhabitants 5 cent. a pound, is now at from 12 to 16 cent. Tea, made in Ru!sia from a herb known by the botanical name of Violo • Tricolour, which is sold at St. Petersburg at lir. a poud, is charged at Irkutsk 81r. w a s ruo jy, do plane d bk ae I d l , LIVERPOOL, Aug. 29.—The British and North Ameri can mail steamship Europa sailed hence to-day for Boston with the usual mails, a fair oargo, and 186 pas. sfiernrogeorfs,Frixoanogd wilheonmdewrsaosn.

The prosecutor, who appeared . to be about 20 years of age , was accom • panied into the court by tutor, and having been sworn, his spot stated that he was walk ing in a secluded w near Rochester Castle on the previous afternoon, himhen the prisoner came up to him, and, after seizing by his coat in a very familiar manner, wished to shake hands with him. As he had never seen the man before be declined • • complying with his request, on which the prisoner gave him a severe agreGgne. gentleman e r awa Burt oni nt with of a. blow on the back of his head with a knobbed stick which he carried, which knocked him down.

In answ er to the magrate t. nese stated that be had not spoken to the prisoner before be rece i ved the blow. The prosecutor gave his evidence in very good English, and signed his name to his state ment in an excellent band. A witness corroborated complainant's evidence, and the prisoner, on being asked for his answer to the charge, at once admitted that what bad been stated against him was correct, but be had only intended it " for a joke. " Captain Berto n told bini suc h descriptions of jokes were not t o b e al lowed ; he was a cowardly blackguard to assault a foreign gentleman in that manner, and he would the. er fore pay a penalty of 5 / , or is default stand committed for two months. The prisoner could not pay the pen alty, and was removed to prison. ~;_. _:..
