" Messrs. MUSORAVE, BROTHERS.—GENTLEMEN, — At your request, I bee to state, for the information of the public, that 'he only property saved from the late fire, in the premises of Thomas S. Major and Co.. was that contained in one of "4lilners' Patent Safes. From the intense nature of the fire, and the length of time the Safe was exposed to the action of the tames, I was fully convinced of the destruction of the books and papers it contained ; and feel very great pleasure in testify ing to this extraordinary instance of their preservation. I m a y add, that the Safe was placed on the third story, without any protection, where it remained till the floor was burnt around it, when it fell to the room beneath. the floor of which was like wise destroyed by the fire.—Yours truly, "JAMES S. HUNTER, "Executor of the late Thomas S. Major, of the Firm of Thomas S. Major and Co. " Belfast, January 2nd, 1854." TRIUMPHANT RESISTANCE TO ROBBERS, AT MESSRS.

In whooping cough, rneasies, small pox and chicken or wind pox it renders all medicine superfluous, by removing all inflammatory and feverish symptoms.

He had scarcely retired from office — from which, be it remembered, he was not driven by any efforts of ours, but by discourtly quarrels with his own colleagues—when he went into fierce opposi tion ; and against what ? Against the measure for the establishment of the militia force upon the volun tary system. Night after night the noble lord opposed that measure; he exhausted every combination of faction ; he opposed it at every stage, and at last he ex hausted the support and confidence of his own friends." After dexterously alluding to the success which had attended the DERBY administration in reference to their reforms in the practice of the Court of Chancery, Mr. DIsnAELI proceeds to say : " But there was another measure proposed by the Government of Lord Derby, very appropriate to the sub ject of discussion now before the house. Year after year having disfranchised boroughs, petty boroughs, for cor rupt practices, you neglected to fill up the vacant seats, and you left the numbers of this house incomplete. The government of Lord Derby came forward and made an enlightened and liberal proposition ; they laid down a principle, at least, which the noble lord has himself since adopted for his Reform Bill. They said, you should give these forfeited seats to the great counties which are not sufficiently represented. We proposed to give them to the West Riding of Yorkshire and Lancashire; and how was that proposition opposed ? With all the sanctimoni ous rhetoric of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, the right hon. gentleman could not permit a " Government of sufferance" to introduce a measure of parliamentary reform. " A government must give us proof of its strength, it must show that it is possessed of the confi dence of the country before we will allow them to appro priate the seats of Sudbury and St. Alban's to the intelli gence and population of the north of England. You must wait till you have a government worthy of the confidence of the country." And here, no doubt, the vision of a true reforming government passed before the right hon. gen tleman's prescient and prophetic glance. Well, now, what have you got in the matter of parliamentary reform from this government ? The West Riding and Lancashire have still to complain of insufficient representation, the vacant seats are lying in the dusthole of defunct suffrages, and the government absolutely has neither power nor will enough to deal even with the tainted boroughs before us." He then twitted Lord Joins and his friends with hav ing adopted the principle with reference to the Income tax which he had recommended, but which they had repudiated, and continued— " The noble lord must, as I said before, have made great sacrifices. He parted from the colleagues of his life, who had been faithful to him, to take into his bosom the ancient foes who had passed their lives in depreciating his abilities and in decrying his eminent career. He gave up the confidence—l may say he almost broke up the being of that historic party, the confidence of which to a man like the noble lord ought not to have been less precious than the favour of his Sovereign. And for what did he do it ? Not from any spirit of faction—not from any spirit of political jealousy or envy of Lord Derby or any body else, but because he was devoted.to great principles and was resolved to carry great measures—the great mea sures of education for example. To carry the great mea sure of education—that was the reason why the noble lord broke up an ancient and noble party—long connected in its associations with the glory of this country. There were also other great measures, but perhaps hardly of equal importance, and not so pressing. There was the completion of the reform of this house, the fufilment of the religions liberties of the country. Those were great measures indeed. We know what happened with that great scheme of education which the noble lord brought for ward last year. It evaporated most suddenly and completely. This year, however, the noble lord has contented himself with trying his great scheme upon one only of the three kingdoms, and that measure has been ignominiously defeated. Then we have the great question of Parliamen tary Reform. The lord took the whole of last year to mature his bill on that subject, though it was one on which, as First Minister of the Crown, he had introduced a project to this house. He had been three years beseech ing. the House of Commons to undertake the subject, but he took another year for its consideration, and this year a measure is brought forward. But who, I ask, obtained its failure? I believe the noble lord will find his oppo nents probably among those new allies with whom he now serves. We witnessed the emotion of the noble lord when he had to come forward in the House of Commons to announce the relinquishment of his favourite scheme. There were some who were inclined to view that ebullition of feeling with indifference or with mockery, some imputed it to lower feelings and sentiments of our nature; but I did not. Still I cannot forget that the noble lord made that measure one of the reasons for accepting the strange and equivocal position which he now occupies in the Govern ment of Her Majesty. But there is yet another bill which might have reconciled him to all the sacrifices which he has been obliged to make, and that received a most memo rable discomfiture on Thursday night last. All the great measures for which he made costly sacrifices have been defeated or withdrawn, but the noble lord still retains his position. The most eminent statesman in this country, one of the oldest and most experienced of the members of this house—one who has been three times Secretary of State—who has been Secretary of State in each depart ment —who was Prime Minister of England for a long term—who is beloved by large bodies of his countrymen • —who was the leader of a noble historic party—condes cends now to accept a subordinate office under one who is not only a Minister not entitled to the confidence of the country, but Who was his ancient and inveterate political opponent, and whom only four years ago he rose and denounced in this house (he talks of connivance') as a conniver with foreign conspirators. And now he comes down to the house and tells us that the defeat which his bill experienced on Thursday night has been occasioned by my being false to the principles which I had previously professed. The -noble lord said that I pretended to be an asserter of the claims of the Jews to political equality with the other subjects of Her Majesty, and that I made that cause subservient to political schemes; that when occasion suited me I left the house and did not vote, and when it was convenient I did vote, still as occasion suited me. Now, I give to that statement a most unequivocal and unqualified denial. Suppose I had got up and said that , the noble lord made Parliamentary Reform a mere politi- ' cal convenience—that when it suited him he quitted the house, and did not vote at all on the subject, and then, again, when it suited him, he also knew how to give a vote against that principle. I might, and without much ingenuity, make a very colourable case against him upon that subject, but I should scorn to do it. But the noble lord can make no colourable case against me. I never, on I any occasion, have quitted this house—l never absented myself from any division ; and if I voted against his bill I the'other night, I tell the noble lord that I do not consi der that I voted against a bill which could have benefited the Jews, but, on the contrary, that I voted against a bill which I believe would have been of greater injury to the Jews than any measure ever brought forward." It is, of course, impossible that a speech so sweeping in its charges, so trenchant in sarcasm, and so comprehen sive in its allusions, could remain unanswered. Lord JOHN RUSSELL availed himself of another opportunity to retaliate upon his Herculean foe; but his blows fell short of their intended victim. Sir CHARLES GREY came to the aid of his discomfited leader ; and the sneer about his "sanctimonious rhetoric" brought the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER prominently into the arena of combat. He professed, however, that his design was merely to throw oil upon the waters of strife, and in this he was partially successful; Mr. DISRAELI, however, remaining unquestionably master of the field. Even the pacific JOHN BRIGHT affirmed his success, by saying : . " We have had a more lively discussion than we have had for some time past, between the noble lord and the right hon. gentleman. I will not say who has had the best of it; I think, however, the noble lord came out of the discussion with some scars. lam one of those who agree with the noble lord as to the motives which led him to take office under Lord Aberdeen. But it is impossible to disguise from ourselves that the elements of that govern ment were such that, from the day of its formation, it was not very likely that it could act for the benefit of the country. I recollect an ingenious gentleman in thii house, and a great friend of the government of the noble lord, saying that the cabinet would get on admirably if they could only avoid politics. That appears to be about the course that the government have pursued. Last session, and during the present session, the Chan cellor of the Exchequer has been very successful. I do not speak of the questions that have been talked about a good deal in the city, but as to the taxes that have been taken off or imposed the Chancellor of the Exchequer was the salvation of the Government in the last session of par liament, and, so far as his measures have been submitted to this house, they have been carried by large majorities this session. But, upon every other matter the govern ment appears altogether unable to advise, to lead, or con trol the house. It is quite clear that the noble lord, who is by courtesy called the leader of the house, does not lead the house, and that the house does not follow the noble lord ; and that the advice which the government in its legislative capacity offers to the house is not accepted in any friendly spirit. And, although many of their measures are good, yet they are unfortunately kicked overboard in a very unceremonious manner. But if the government of Lord Aberdeen were formed upon such patriotic princi ples, and if the noble lord entered that government with such honourable views, if the noble lord finds out, after 18 months, that the experiment has been a failure, and that the whole of the promises held out with regard to what was to be done in parliament for the country by that union of men, hitherto separated in politics, have failed, then I am not quite sure that it will not be the duty of the noble lord and of his colleagues—as patriotic now as they were 18 months ago—to endeavour at no dis tant time to form some other combination that may possi bly be more successful. The right hon. gentleman (Mr. Disraeli) has, I must admit, made a very fair defence of his government. I was one of those who voted against his budget. I gave that vote—and I have never con ' cealed it—with reluctance, not as being afraid of giving an opinion upon his budget, which I thought ill-judged, but because I could not see in the circumstances of the country any direct advantage resulting from the overthrow of that government. But that govern ment was overthrown. Yet if the right hon. gen tleman had only had the recklessness to have involved this country in a labyrinth of interminable negotiations, or negotiations only terminable by the calamity of a war still more interminable, he would have been Chancellor of the Exchequer now. On the theory of the noble lord, the right hon. gentleman, having a majority against him of I 19, would not have been thrown out by a greater majority than that against the noble lord, but having involved the country in war, and having taken the responsibility of that great calamity, it would have been the duty of par liament and of the noble lord to have said, " You have got us into a war and you must get us out of it. We will not undertake the responsibility. ' This is the condition that we are now driven to by the Government. As far as ad vising and recommending measures to parliament is con cerned, they have not the confidence of the House of Com mons. Many of their measures have been good ones, but, not having the confidence of the house, they tell the house that it is still absolutely necesAry that they should re main in office, and that, having involved the country in war, the emergency of the present state of things is such' that they cannot think of quitting the side of the Save- GRATIS !

THE OPPOSITION LEADERS-A SCENE IN PARLIAMENT. THAT the floor of the House of Commons is often made the scene of an anomalous drama. is true. Not less true is it that in the course of most sessions it is made the arena of combats at variance with the professions of gentlemanly feeling which admittedly actuate the conduct of nearly all our parliamentary representatives, and the possession and display of which feeling are indispensable to the occupancy of a prominent position in the house. Even youthful students of public events must be familiar with the acrimonious controversy between the late Sir ROBERT PEEL and Mr. COBDEN ; nor are they likely to be ignorant of the pungent oratorical contest between the same right honourable baronet and Mr. DISRAELI ; while those whose memories and experience stretch over a longer period, will revert to the famous rhetorical combat between Lord BROUGHAM and Mr. CANNING, as illustrations in point of the above remarks. No one of the instances referred to, however, possessed a greater amount of studied and ingenious sarcasm, or was delivered with such stinging severity and damaging effect as was administered by Mr. DISRAELI to Lord JOHN RUSSELL, on Monday evening ; nor was any of them distinguished by such an eager com petition of bitterness as the noble lord evinced in his replies, for the combat consisted of more than one passage of arms. It originated in the ATTORNEY-GENERAL'S intimating the intention of government to withdraw the Bribery Bills which they had introduced, for the purpose of disfran chising the boroughs of Barnstaple, Canterbury, Cam bridge, Hull, and Maldon. The opportunity was seized by Mr. DISRAELI for exposing the administrative incapacity of the cabinet, as displayed in their inability to catty into effect measures which they had declared of vital impor tance to the well-being of the country. With perplexing and incorrigible ability Mr. DISRAELI enumerated the I instances in which the impotence of government had been demonstrated by defeat. "There have been seven important measures of which the government have given notice this session. The great majority of these were brought forward with the authority of Her Majesty in her most gracious speech, but those measures that were not introduced in Her Majesty's speech were not of less importance than those that were brought under our notice in that manner. They all of them touch upon the most considerable subjects that can engage the attention of parliament. I find that out of these seven measures the government have been defeated on three, that three have been withdrawn, and that the seventh will engage our attention when the present busi ness has terminated. They have been defeated on a bill for the entire change of the law of settlement—on a bill for the public education of one of Her Majesty's kingdoms —and a bill for the total reconstruction of parliamentary oaths. They have withdrawn three bills,—one, the bill before us for the disfranchisement of a large number of persons, comprising a large body of the constituency; they have not introduced, but they have withdrawn from our notice, a most important measure for the complete change of the civil service, which, so far as we can form an opinion of it, would have altered the whole spirit of our administration ; and they have withdrawn a measure respecting parliamentary reform. There still remains a seventh measure, which is one for the reform of the University of Oxford. On three they have been defeated, three they have withdrawn, and on the seventh they have received considerable, though partial defeats. Did they believe that they could have passed a reform in parlia ment ? Did they believe that they could have effected the reform of the civil service ? Did they believe that they could have disfranchised the constituencies, or any portion of them, of these offending boroughs, that they could have established a system of public education in Scotland, revised the whole of our parliamentary oaths, and changed the parliamentary constitution of the country; settled the law of settlement, and reformed the University of Oxford ? All these seven measures, whatever difference of opinion may exist as to their policy or expediency, have one characteristic. They are either assaults upon the rights of the subject or on the institutions of the country. That no one will deny. You met here to-night with the intention of disfranchising a considerable number of Her Majesty's subjects. You were to proceed, after you had read a second time the bill for that purpose, to attack the rights of the Univtrsity of Oxford. Some of you may, perhaps, be of opinion that, in both of these instances, suchviolent measures should have been had recourse to ; but no man will deny that the one makes an attack on the rights of the constituency of the country, and that the other is an attack on the rights of one of the universi ties of the country. No one will deny that the scheme of parliamentary reform which the noble lord introduced to our notice was an attack on an institution of the country. The noble lord and his friends may be of opinion—though I know no gentlemen who have expressed the opinion— that the measure was a beneficial measure; yet they will not deny that it was a change, and a great change, in one of the institutions of the country. Supposing the noble lord had proceeded with the measure, so dear to his heart, for the reform of parliament, would he have supposed that he could carry it? Suppose the noble lord had not raised the siege of parliament, after keeping it up for three years, would he have supposed that he could succeed in his object ? It is of great importance to impress these circumstances on the house and the country, because we are never to forget that we enjoy the great blessing of having our affairs administered by men who are remark ably distinguished by their ability —men who have made enormous sacrifices, both for their country and for them selves. Than the noble lord himself no man has made greater sacrifices. He has thrown over all his old col leagues, and connected himself with a coterie of public men who the greater part of their lives have been depre ciating his great abilities and running down his eminent renown. If the noble lord had succeeded in the object for which he made such enormous sacrifices, I could under stand more clearly than I do the present position of the noble lord. But we find it otherwise. I feel that the time has *come when it is impossible not to consider that we should have had the ample compensation held out to us for the breaking up of parties, for not following the spirit and genius of our parliamentary constitution. I'Ve have not received that full and ample compensation in well-digested and statesmanlike measures that was held out to us. We were told that the government had no -principles, but ' all the talents,' and we had a right to expect that the noble lord—who always wishes to behave handsomely to the house—would at least have given us something as a compensation for the remarkable state of affairs which has banished all his natural colleagues to invisible positions in this house, and placed him on a bench surrounded by those Who have been decrying his career for the last quarter of a century." To these remarkably well-put taunts, Lord Joins RUSSELL, losing his Parliamentary temper, and forgetting his customary tact, replied in the to quoque style :-- "The right honourable gentleman himself, when he was a minister, brought forward a plan of finance on which he had bestowed considerable labour, but he was not so fortunate as to obtain for that plan the sanction of this house. Yet I suppose he brought it forward in the ex pectation of its being carried. That certainly is our case, and no doubt we have been much disappointed. [After some taunting observations as to the Conservative party and Mr. Disraeli being afraid to test the popularity of the cabinet by an adverse vote upon their war policy, his lord ship went on to say,;—The right hon. gentleman has more than once, and I have no doubt with great sincerity, declared his wish to see the Jews in possession of the franchise with all other subjects of Her Majesty. He thinks they are peculiarly worthy of it, more worthy of it, I believe, than Protestants, Roman Catholics, or any other class of Christians ; but, notwithstanding his great anxiety, sometimes he supports it, and sometimes he does not support it—the political conveniences of the hour always seem to overcome his attachment to the cause. Such being the case, and such being the condition of the government, I certainly must regret that this measure has been defeated ; but with regard to that question which I must consider as the great question of the session, I repeat that the discussions and divisions which have taken place in this house have not shown that it has con fidence in the right hon. gentleman and his friends." So far from daunting or intimidating the ex-Chancellor of the Exchequer, the invective and accusation of Lord Joint RUSSELL only served to chafe and rouse him. With a power of sarcasm peculiar to himself, and in the wield ing of which he has no rival in the house, Mr. DISRAELI replied : " The noble lord seems to think that I am surprised that he has not quitted office ; Sir, on the contrary, I should have been immensely surprised if he had. Many more defeats, if possible more humiliating, and if possible more complete, must occur before the noble lord will feel the necessity of taking such a step as that. I know the noble lord too well; I have sat opposite to him too long ; I have seen him too often in the same posi tion. Many a time have I seen him experience the most signal defeats, and I have seen him still adhere to office with a patriotism and a pertinacity which cannot be too much admired. The noble lord is in error, there fore, if he supposes that I was taunting him with not re signing office, or if he thinks I was expressing any sur prise at his retaining the position which he occupies." Mr. DISRAELI next addresses himself to Lord Jollies allegation that he and his friends, after criticising the war policy of the ministry, were afraid to test their own popularity by an adverse vote, but 'contented themselves with a disingenuous misrepresentation of the ministerial conduct. In answer to this taunt of Lord JouN, Mr. DISBAELI accuses him broadly of having suppressed the most important portion of the papers relative to the Turkish question, and obtaining the sanction of the house on a garbled statement, repeating his assertion that the ministerial conduct could only be explained by " conni vance or credulity." He. then proceeds : "The noble lord referred—not with much felicity, I think—to the failure of the last measures of the govern ment of Lord Derby, and he then suddenly recollected himself, finding that their policy led to consequences very different from his own conduct. As the noble lord has touched upon those measures, I hope—unwilling as I am to notice such things—that the house will not consider me as trespassing upon their time if I refer, also, to the measures of the late government, with which the noble lord, as a member of the Opposition, had some connexion. I will ray for the noble lord, that, whatever may have induced him, from the first moment that Lord Derby's government was formed, they did not find in him a fair opponent. I will not say of the noble lord as he said of me some'lo months ago, when I gave him a friendly in timation that he bad better be looking after some of his colleagues, who, in their sagacity, were insulting the Emperor of the French will not say of him what he then said of me, that my 4-trduct was imbued with the spirit of faction. That is quitennecessary for me to say, if I recal to the house what wa, , the conduct of the noble lord when the government of Lord Perby was ..~..~ '~-- . reign. Ido not mean to say that there is no force in the argument that men who have engaged the country in war ought to have the responsibility of fighting it through, but it is one of the most perilous principles that can be admitted in this house to say that a ministry, however reckless, unprincipled, and unfitted for office, have, merely by some course of concealed and misunderstood diplomacy, to involve this country in a contest with some foreign country, and then say your majorities go for nothing— your Reform Bills, your Education Bills, your Oaths Bill, your Settlement Bill, and other things that we once thought so necessary for a government in this country and for your parliamentary system, must now go for. nothing. We will not pass a single measure of any kind except what refers to taxation ; and yet, having led the country into this war, parliament must support us, and we shall be able to defy any man.' We are engaged in a war the object of which the government has never told us, and the terms of peace that we contend for no man has the slightest idea of. We have for an ally one who was denounced by Cabinet Ministers 18 months ago, and who is now about to take possession of four of the capitals of Europe—Paris, Rome, Athens, and Constantinople. Seeing that all these things have been caused by the policy of the noble lord and his colleagues, I do not see any ground on which they can call for the confidence of this house or the approbation of the country. FOREIGN AND COLONIAL. FRANCE. General Baraguay returned to Paris on the 30th ult. M. Ebeling, the late Russian consul-general at Paris, who expected to be allowed to remain as a privateindividual, has been ordered by the French Government to leave France. EGYPT. - - • Egypt continues in a very quiet state, the only steps taken by the Pasha being to make soldiers to be sent to the seat of war. Levies are being constantly made in the interior, and the population of Egypt is being rapidly diminished in consequence. Abbas Pasha is living in the desert, and, as usual, does not attend at all to the adminis tration of affairs, and avoids all Europeans as much as possible. Trade is almost at a stand, the Viceroy having accumulated into his stores all the produce of the country, which he refuses to sell. Vessels keep coming into port in large numbers, and find no produce to take off, so that freights are very low indeed. Beans 4s. per quarter, and cotton id. per lb.

The Bassein district•is still in an unsettled state; so much so that it is not considered prudent to send the steamer away at present. It is said that negotiations between the authorities at Pegue and Ara are in progress, and that Lord Dalhousie is likely to conclude a treaty with 'the Monarch of the Golden Foot. The most important item of intelligence has been the opening of the Ganges Canal by the Lieutenant-Governor of the North-West Provinces, Mr. John Colvin. A most violent tornado passed from W.S.W. to E.N.E. on the 10th ultimo, in Rungpoor, in Bengal. It caused the most fearful loss of property and life, depopulating villages, and carrying before it houses, cattle, and every thing that interrupted its course. Whole plantations of bamboos were uprooted, and people were " gored and spitted through like meat for roasting." The dead can be numbered by hundreds. The ship William Connall was lost ; three of the crew drowned ; and it was doubtful if the cargo could be saved. WEST INDIES. The Avon steamer arrived off Plymouth on Sunday. She left Santio Martha on the 23d April; Tampico, May 2d ; Jamaica, 12th ; Fnyal, 29th. West India islands very healthy. Canes looked well at Trinidad, with pro mise of a large crop. At Barbadoes canes withered for want of rain, which was expected. Scarcity of shipping unprecedented. Double the highest freight given for years is now offered. Large quantities of produce waiting tonnage, making business dull. Islands otherwise pros perous. Great fears are entertained of the annexation of Cuba by the planters, which the planters regard as certain The Avon brings specie to the value of 2,000,000 dollars JAPAN. The overland mail brings authentic accounts of the successful negotiations of his Excellency Commodore Perry, of the United States' navy, in Japan ; and there is great reason for believing that we may shortly have particulars of the treaty and the ports to be opened, as, on the 27th of March, Commodore Perry was to have a grand meeting, near Jeddo, with the princes and ministers of the Emperor of Japan, appointed, it is said, fOr the consideration and conclusion, and most probably the ratfication of the treaty. From all we learn, there can be no doubt that Japan will be opened to all nations, and each hay facility of making a treaty. The Emperor of JapaW dead. A very old man, but a new emperor was enthroned. The report given of the Russian Admiral having made a treaty with the emperor turns out to be unfounded. AUSTRALIA The accounts from the colony of Victoria by the overland mail are exceedingly satisfactory as regards the gold production and the general progress of the population, although the import markets presents no fa vourable change, the average rate of arrivals for the last two months have been about 17,000 tons of shipping weekly. The chief of the new discoveries of gik had taken place at a locality called Tarrangower, within a few miles of Fryer's Creek. Owing to a scarcity Of water the actual quantities thus far obtained had been small ; but the evident richness of the soil had indneed the men to heap up enormous quantities for future washing. Dis coveries had also been made at three other localities . namely, the Buckland River, Brynaut's Ranges, and Crowlands. The accounts received by escort during the present year had shown a steady increase, the totals hav ing been for January 123,416 ounces, for February 136,467 ounces, and for March (from the let to the 25th) 152,748 ounces. Notwithstanding the augmented production, however, the demand for gold for shipment in return for the excessive importations from Europe had caused the price to advance from 755. 6d. since January to 78s. 3d., which was the latest quotation. The aggregate shipments of gold, from the commencement of the present year to the 25th of March h a d b een 535 , 545 ounc es. This is 122,914 ounces above the quantity brought in by escort, but is probably not i n excess o f th e sum actually obtained, estimating the proportion brought by private hands as well as the amounts carried to Adelaide and Sydney over land. Supposing the same rate of shipment to be con tinued, its value in the year, at £4 per ounce, would be about £9,000,000. Among the vessels lately cleared were the Samuel Boddington, with 24,266 ounces; the Marquis, with 766 ounces; the St e b on h ea th, w ith 12,108 ounces.; the Windermere (from Geelong), with 25,000 ounces ; the Birmingham, with 16,533 ounces; the Neleus, with 62,913 ounces, and the Ferozepore, with 20,212 ounces ; making a total of 151,798 ounces, worth £607,200. According to the Melbourne Argus, the value of the imports into the colony of Victoria in 1853 was £15842 627 , of which about £13,300,000 was fr om Great Britain and British colonies, and about £1,700,000 from the United States. FIRES AND FLOODS AT HOBART TowN.—At the close of January this colony was visited with one of the most disastrous and calamitous fires ever remembered by the oldest colonist. On the Hum the loss had been in calculable, and to mark the sympathy of the public a list of the sufferers and the individual amount of 'each has been published in all the newspapers, and spirited sub scriptions have been set on foot to remunerate in some degree the losses thus sustained. On the 26th of February, the whole of the early part of the day was remarkable for the unusually hot and oppressive state of the atmosphere, and towards the afternoon the clouds became lowering; and distant thunder was heard, which became louder every minute. The lightning was vivid, and the thunder became appalling. Then the water spouts broke forth, and the half of Hobart Town, iu the course of the night, be came flooded, accompanied by much loss of life and pro perty. At O'Brien's-bridge, Brown's River, and at Ross, great mischief has been sustained. AMERICA. ARRIVAL OF THE CANADA. By the British and North American Royal Mail steam ship Canada, Captain Stone, which arrived on Sunday morning, we have intelligence from New York to the 23d and Boston to the 24th ult. The Canada left Boston at 10.15 a.m., on the 24th, and arrived at Halifax at 9.36 p.m., on the following .day, whence she sailed at 11.15 p.m., and arrived in the river at a quarter before eight o'clock on Sunday morning, after a passage of a little better than ten days and a-half. The Canada brought 142 passengers, and .1418,771 and £4OO English silver, on freight. The shin W. H. Harbeck was destroyed by fire at New York on the 18th ult. The packet-ship Montezuma, from Liverpool, with 400 passengers on board, was wrecked on Rockaway beach on the 17th ult. All the lives were saved. The ship Hope was destroyed by fire at Mobile on the 17th. The ship Black Hawk, which left Liverpool on the 4th of April, with crew and passengers numbering 858, has been wrecked in the Atlantic. he whole number of per sons on board were saved by the Currituck, Dougo, and Caroline. A telegraphic despatch from Portland, dated May 20th, announced the arrival there on the 12th of the steamer Ottawa, from Liverpool, all well. She had been unable to get into the Gulf of St. Lawrence, on account of the ice. The ship Flying Cloud left New York on the 21st of January, and arrived at San Francisco on the 20th of April, thus making the run in the remarkably short space of eighty-eight days. This ship was built by Mr. Donald 31`lcay, of Boston. The suspension-bridge at Wheeling, Virginia, had been capsized durink the storms and destroyed. It was swung across the main arm of the Ohio river at Wheeling, that branch of the river flowing around the other side of the island being crossed by an ordinary bridge upon piers. It is stated that the growing crops throughout the Union were in excellent condition. _ Sll:Eveieitfiadresigned his position of senator in Con gress, owing to aggravated physical infirmity. The Earl of Elgin had arrived at Washington. His visit, according to the American journals, is connected with the negotiations respecting the fisheries. The House of Representatives had passed the Nebralika Bill by a majority of nine votes. It was read a first time on the 23rd. The St. John's (N.F.) Post, of April 30, states that an agent of the Collins' line of steamers was expected there to ascertain if the harbour of St. John's is a safe and ac cessible place for steamers; and that, if the report should prove. satisfactory, four of the Collins' line of steamers, of 3,000 tons each, would visit that port weekly, as soon as the telegraph shall be in operation, which will, most pro bably, be in October next. The St. Louis Republican, of the 13th May, announces the loss of the steamer Pike and fifteen lives. Advices from Texas report that, on the Bth, a govern ment train was attacked near Fort Ewell by Indians, and five teamsters killed. The Indians also took several team sters prisoners,' shot all the mules, and destroyed the wagons and contents, valued at 30,000 dollars. According to the New York Herald, the Secretary of the Navy, probably in view of the unsettled state of the relations with Spain, had issued an order directing that all vessels, of war on the point of departare should be delayed. The New York Journal of Commerce, in an article on the Eastern and Cuban questions, says, " The best mili tary authorities in the Vnited States maintain that the European war cannot last a twelvemonth, as Russia is unable to cope with the allies." Referring to the rabid articles in the Ameriean journals respecting Cuba, the Journal of Commerce indignantly exposes the " tricky" policy of endeavouring to take advantage of the war to seize that island, and says, " England and France are both on the war-footing with troops and horses, and fleets afloat, with every chalice of annihilating the naval and mercantile power of Russia in a couple of months. What would hinder them from steaming by mid-summer out of the Black Sea and the Baltic direct for the Gulf of Mexico, or the Bay of New York ? What have we to oppose those fleets ? We expect to be able, at the end of six years or so, to make a show of six new frigates. England has to day on the stocks six times six. More than that; she has in her four naval depots no less than one hundred and sixty vessels of the royal navy, all told, and said to be serviceable. For bragging, we will match the Washing ton Union newspaper with any British sheet that is printed; but when it comes to comparing. navies, we are obliged, though not ashamed, to confess the truth, and admit our inferiority. The simple fact is, that if what the presidential organ and some other of its allies affirm to be true, namely, that England and France have gua ranteed to Spain the possession of the island of Cuba, then we cannot have it. It must be set down as one of those things not to be done in the year eighteen hundred and fifty-four :—the sooner we make up our minds to it the better." According to advices from Honduras, Congress have ratified a contract granting the Honduras Railroad Com pany two-and-a-half millions of acres of valuable lands, to aid in the construction of the work. On the 17th of April severe earthquakes occurred in the state of St. Sal vador, nearly destroying the capital. Many of the prin cipal buildings and about 600 families were buried in the earth. From Mexico the accounts are conflicting. It is stated that Santa Anna was on his return to the capital, and that his wife had set out to meet him. It was inferred that Acapulco had been taken and occupied by the army, and also that Santa Anna had re-established communication with the city. Another account, however, and a later one, states that Santa Anna summoned Acapulco to surrender. which was refused by Alvarez, who sallied out, attacked Santa Anna's troops, and took 300 prisoners. Santa Anna fled. The steamer United States had arrived at New Orleans from Aspinwall. The Illinois sailed the same day for New York with $700,000. The news from California was to the Ist ult. The San Francisco markets were dull, and prices of leading articles depressed. The barque Walter Claiton had been capsized, and thirteen lives lost by the accident. The steamer Gazelle had exploded on the Columbia River, killing 25 persons and wounding 30. Accounts from the mining districts were most flattering. M. Dillon, the French Consul, having been arrested and brought into court to testify in the case of the Mexican Consul, had struck his flag, and declined to raise it with out instructions from France. The Mexican Consul was found guilty, but recommended to mercy. COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

During Wednesday and Thursday last prices were easier, and sales were made at a decline of ie. per lb. On Friday and Saturday holders refused to sell, and buyers lost the advantage. Yesterday, after receipt of the Franklin's news, a better feeling prevailed, and classed cotton improved in price. Mixed lots and the lower qua lities were difficult to sell, and the price for such was irregular, depending to extent of lc. whether the buyer or seller wished to operate. The export for the week was, to Liverpool, 4,378 bales ; Rotterdam, 138 ; Bremen, 471; Gottenburg, 104 ; Stockholm, 126 :_ total, 5,217 bales. . The following is a statement of the movement in cotton since the Ist of September last, as compared with the pre vious three years : 1854. 1853. 1852. 1851.

Total decrease in exports, 457,000 bales. BREADSTUFFS.—The market for flour was quiet, and in the absence of any inquiry for export, prices had declined about 121 c. per barrel, in the common qualities only. Wheat was in good demand. Prime parcels of white and yellow Indian corn command relatively high prices. PRovisioNs.—Pork was dull at $l4 for mess and $12,50 for prime, holders rather pressing on the market.

The conference of the representatives of Amtria,France, Great Britain, and Prussia met at Vienna, May 23, " to communicate reciprocally and record in one common act the conventions concluded between France and England on the one hand, and between Austria and Prvcia on the other : " "After a careful examination of the aforesaid conven tions, the undersigned have unanimously agreed— "l. That the convention concluded between France and England, as well as that signed on the 20th of April between Austria and Prussia, bind both of them in the relative situations to which they apply to secure the maintenance of the principle established by the series of protocols of the Conference of Vienna. "2. That the integrity of the Ottoman Empire and the evacuation of that portion of its territory which is occu pied by the Russian army are and will continue to be the constant and invariable object of the union of the Four Powers. "3. That, consequently, the, acts communicated and annexed to the present protocol correspond to the engage ment, which the Plenipotentiaries had mutually con tracted on the 9th of April to deliberate and agree upon the means most fit to accomplish the object of their union, and thus give a fresh sanction to the firm intention of the Four Powers represented at the conference of Vienna, to combine all their efforts and their entire resolution to accomplish the object which forms the basis of their union. " BOUT, SCRAUENSTEIN, WESTMORELAND " BOURQUE:SET. ARNIM." PIRACY IN GREECE.—A private letter from the Piraeus dated the Bth, states that the Austrian frigate Bellona detached to the Archipelago by the Commandant of the station, had sunk two Greek pirate ships and given chase to a third. The French steam frigate Gomer had chased a Greek pirate boat manned by 22 men, which had captured a merchant vessel off the Island of Samos. The Gomer released the prize, and captured four of the pirates. An English brig had been plundered by pirates in the Gulf of Kalamata. The Vienna Post states that, after conferring with the French and English commanders, Omar Pasha, on the 26th, advanced towards Silistria with 90,000 men in two columns. His right wing leans on the heights near the Taban Dene, and his left on the river Driste. It is stated that by the convention concluded between the Porte, Austria, England, and France, Austria will occupy Montenegro, Albania, and Servia, should any dis turbances arise in those provinces. Letters from Belgrade state that the firman for carrying out this stipulation is already signed. It is also stated that the V independence of Georgia has been proclaimed, and that the princes banished will be recalled. On the 26th the Russians attempted to force the passage of the Danube at Turnu, Simuitza, and Giurgevo, but were repulsed. Intelligence has been received from Admiral Dundas that Redout-Kaleh and Poti, on the coast of Circassia, have surrendered to the allied squadron. A detachment of the allied armies had arrived at Varna. Silistria still held out on the 28th. Our Vienna correspondent assures us that he is in formed from an excellent source that a rupture between Austria and Russia is imminent. By a decree, dated May 31, the export and transport of arms or munitions of war to Russia is prohibited, and Austrian merchantmen going to sea are only to be allowed to take such arms as are required by the crew. News of the 30th from Bucharest had arrived at Vienna, stating that the Russians had been repulsed in an attack on one of the detached forts of Silistria, and that the Russians admit the place is not likely to be taken under a fortnight. THE FRENCH - ARMY IN THE EAST.--•The Moniteur publishes, in a letter from Gallipoli, dated May 14, the following details respecting the means of subsistence and the condition of the French troops :—" At this moment 26,000 persons receiving rations, and the number augments every day. We have four Turkish ovens, capable of pro viding rations for 400 ; and nine campaign ovens, supply in.. 250. Our flour comes to us from France and Alge r i a . We also receive corn, which we have gronds: The bread is excellent, and, from the general down to the soldier, everybody eats it with pleasure. We receive our meat from Asia, the proportion being three quarters of beef and one quarter of mutton. The meat is provided by the administration of the army. The animals are small but very wholesome. The wine, to the extent of' one-half, is from France, the other half is that of the country. The wine of the country is rather sour, of very deep colour. but pure and of good quality. The biscuit, the sugar, and the coffee, as well as dry vegetables, come from France and Algeria. We are beginning to make biscuits, and the country can supply us with sugar, coffee, and liquors. - The salt beef and pork are imported from France and Algeria. We find in the country, straw, barley, and hay for the horses and mules. In our arrangements respect-- ing provisions, we are assisted by the Turkish Commission. In order to facilitate the establishment of our maga zines and to appropriate our position to our wants, we have cleared the port and dock, constructed stations and jetties, levelled the streets, and cleared away encumbrances, established hospitals, constructed a park for forage, made barracks, dug trenches for purifying the town and carrying away water, and demolished houses, giving indemnity, in order to enlarge the quays. All this has been done with such surprising activity as to excite the wonder of the Turks. The Turks see us here with pleasure, particularly since the affair of Odessa. Before that event the agents of Russia used their efforts to persuade the Turks that we were among them TUESDAY, JUNE 6, 1854. _., to take our share in the partition of Turkey. They hate now more than confidence, and we have only t015:7- their willingness, their probity, and their good faith °( their transactions.
