The success that UNT, has attended this -- 'lO froi 'ts formation, is unprece• ..,is association, _.)m its Tor.-- , dented. It is supported by the most powerful and numerous constituency existing —a fact that, of itself, must render its solid advancement a certainty, while the principles on which it is established are such as to command the support of the public generally. With respect to rates, it is not intended to underbid other offices, or to diminish the full margin of profits, without which neither the assured nor the assurers would be safe ; but to return the profits, not to a few capi. talists who might be the exclusive holders of the property of this association, but to those numerous and known parties from whom the profits have been actually derived ; not to bestow occasional bonuses at will, whether large or small, but to repay as a debt to the insurers two-thirds of all sur plus' and one-third to the shareholders. The manner in which this mutual advantage meets with the support of the public may be best explained by the fact that, in the past two weeks ending 4th October, 1853, 792 insurances have been 'received for property to the extent of -t'582,145, being at the `rate of issuing nineteen thou.sand policies insuring nearly fourteen millions sterling per annum, while the total number of new insurances completed in the past twelve months is 5392, insuring property to the amount of .e 3,082,145.

ANOTHER CURE OF :CONSUMPTIVE COUGH.—Extract of a letter from Mr. Thomas Dean, 150, Scotland-road, Liver poot.—Gentlemen,—l have great pleasure in communicating to you a case (among many) which came under my own observation. A lady, who I can refer to, in her assiduous attendance upon her husband during a long and fatal illness, caught cold, and not having taken care of herself, it settled upon her lungs. She was troubled with a dreadful cough, and every symptom of consumption. She applied to her medical man, but did not obtain any rel ief; when, upon the recommendation of a friend, she tried Dr. Locock's Wafers, which, from the commencement, eased her cough, and by continuing them she is perfectly cured. THOMAS DEAN. ANOTHER CURE OF COUGH AND HOARSENESS.—Parlia ment-street, Liverpool.—Sir,—lt is with much pleasure I bear testimony to the extraordinary power of Locock's Wafers. I had been troubled with a cough and hoarseness for nearly two years, without relief, when I was induced to try Locock's Wafers, the effects of which were soon visible, for one large box (2s. 9d.) has quite cured me. I have since recommended them to several of my friends, and they have experienced the greatest relief from them.—Yours, gratefully, J. WILLIAMS. IMPORTANT TO ALL WHO SING.—FTOM S. Pearsall, Esq., Her Majesty's Concerts, and Vicar Choral of LichfieldCathedral.

I find by allowing a few of the Wafers (taken in the course of the day) to gradually dissolve in the mouth, my voice becomes bright and clear, and the tone full and distinct. They are decidedly the most efficacious of any I have ever used. S. PEARSALL.

About ten years ago, Mr. W. Crimmins,. of Saltney street, in this town, was thrown from his horse, whereby be received very serious injuries; he had the best medical ad vice at the time, and was afterwards an inmate of different infirmaries, yet he grew worse, and at length a malignant running ulcer settled in his hip, which so completely crip pled him, that he could not move without crutches for nearly ten years; recently he began. to use your Ointment and Pills, which have now healed the wound, strengthened his limb, and enabled him to dispense with his crutches, so that he can walk with the greatest ease, and with renewed health and vigour, --3.

At length I tried your Oint ment and Pills, and without exaggeration, the effect was mi raculous, for by persevering in their use, all the eruptions quickly disappeared, and the child was restored to perfect health.

She had ulcerated wounds in her leg for many years, and latterly they increased to such an alarming extent as to defy all the usual remedies; her health rapidly giving way under the suffering she endured. In this dis tressing condition she had recourse to your Ointment and Pills, and by the assistance of her friends, was enabled to persevere in their use, until she received a perfect cure. We have ourselves been greatly astonished at the effect upon so old a person, she being above 70 years of age. We shall be happy to satisfy any inquries as to the authenticity of this really wonderful case, either personally or by letter.—A pri vate in the Bath Police Force, also, bag been perfectly cured of an old scorbutic affection in the face, after all other means had failed.

PAINS IN THE BACK, GRAVEL, LUMBAGO, RHEUMATISM, GOUT, HEADACHE, NERVOUSNESS, DEBILITY, &c.—DR.DEROOS' COMPOUND RENAL PILLS (as theirname Renal. or the Kidneys, indicates) have been long established as a most safe and efficacious remedy for the above dangerous complaints, Discharges or any kind, and Diseases of the Kid neys, &c., which, if neglected, frequently end in a lingering painful death. For Depression of Spirits, Excitement, Dis like of Society, Incapacity for Study or Business, Loss of Memory, Confusion, Giddiness, Blood to the Head, Drowsi ness, Sleep without refreshment, Nervousness, and even In sanity itself, they are unequalled.

W. Chartres, Esq., Newport, Mayo.—" I have a degree of mental energy and vigour such as I did not feel these two years. My memory is wonderfully improved, so that I can ecollect all the events of each day with the greatest degree of clearness. It is astonishing how I got out of such awful suf ferings, but I think I owe it altogether to the use of your Pills." PERSONS GOING ABROAD, CAPTAINS and OTHERS, cannot store more important articles of health than the above, which, by regulating the Stomach and Bowels, and tranquil lizing the Nervous System, will prevent those fatal diseases so prevalent abroad, as also Sea Sickness and other complaints incidental to long voyages and irregular living. No Emi grant's Chest can be properly furnished without them, for when far removed from medical aid, they will find in these Pills a never-failing restorative.

ARD, AND GENERAL COMMERCIAL ADVERTISER ;cription FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE Tha town of Compiegne is rend d exceed- The gay by the presence Of the Imperial_pair re very numerous. U pwards ot e occupied by them. , A grand battue in the y forest, a stag hunt, and a racket match in the court attached to the palace, were the amusements of three successive days. The dramatic company of the Gymnase have been playing before the Imperial party, in a temporary theatre erected in one of the salons. Lord Cowley left Paris on Sunday to join the Imperial party at Compiegne, Lady Cowley remaining in consequence of in- guests — at the palac sixty apartments disposition. - The Princess Pplathirde had also gone to Compiegne. Cardinal Wiseman is now staying in Paris. A rumour was current early in the week, and has not been contradicted, that another plot had been discovered, and 140 arrests made on Sunday night. The truth ap pears to be that extensive political arrests were made, but that the number stated is an exaggeration. Accounts have been received of the arrival at Jerusalem of the first caravan of French Pilgrims, on the 12th ult. As soon as they perceived the city they alighted from their horses, prostrated themselves, and prayed fervently. They were all clothed in white, and, as they entered the city by the gate at Jaffa, musket shots were fired in their hoiaotir. It is said that a French frigate is expected at Jaffa to pro tect the pilgrims. The Moniteur of Thursday contains a statement of the Minister of Marine, from which it would appear that the State maintains at this moment 161 sea going vessels, manned by 33,600 sailors. There are two squadrons of fourteen men-of-war, without reckoning frigates and corvettes. There are five screw steam ers ready, and nine will be finished by the end of the year. There are six more on the stocks. It is stated at the Prussian Embassy in Paris, that the king has expressed to the Courts of France and England his disapprobation of any measure tending to disturb the equilibrium of Europe. Failing in his endeavour to conci li• ' he —ll remain neutral. The trial of 32 persons con- date, he wi— cerned in the " conspiracy of the Opera Comiciie " has been postponed to the 7th of next month before the Court of Assizes of Paris. Twenty-seven of the accused are in custody. The indictment charges them with conspiring to assassinate the Emperor, and to destroy the form of Government SPAIN.—The Duchess of Montpensier is suffering from. indisposition. One account states her malady to be scar latina. Another says it is measles. The Queen of Spain, in commemoration of her birth day, the 10th instant, has oordered three screw-frigates, each carrying thirty-one I 3erenguela guns, to be constructed; and to be called the Petrofina, and Blanca, in memory of the three queens from whom her Majesty derives the crowns of Castille, Arragon, and Narvare. _ _ consequence of the dearness of bread. They Were speedily suppressed, and a telegraphic despatch on Thurs day announced that there was not the least further dan ger to public tranquillity. The late extraordinary rains have made great havoc in several parts of Italy. A dili gence travelling from Nice was everwhelmed in a moun tain torrent, and two Swiss ladies, with a child, were drowned. AuSTRIA.—The Viennese papers continue to hold a pacific tone ; and the most faithful to the Imperial Court argue the most strongly from the recently decreed reduc tions in the army, that the intentions of Austria are peaceful. In the meantime we are informed that no ar rangements are on foot for carrying into execution the Imperial decree; but that, on the contrary, the generals T,nn-aetrclv 1-Tnno•ftry wrigi Grntin havp _ . all demanded reinforcements, on account of the popu lar feeling of discontent and disaffection in those countries. RUSSlA.—Letters from St. Petersburg, of the 10th, an nounce that the Emperor Nicholas has just adopted some ♦ery important warlike measures. It is well known that the military forces of Russia comprise two principal divi sions—the army destined for grand operations in Europe, and the troops having a local destination. It is positively stated that the former of these two armies, called the army of Europe, which is now quartered in the western part of the empire, and the. principal corps of which occupy Russian-Poland, and to which the other corps form the reserve, is called into active service. The Emperor of Russia arrived at St. Petersburgna the 13th from Berlin. Despatches from St. Petersburg state that the prepara tions for war are being proceeded with rapidly.. The fleet in the harbour of Cronstadt, which had laid up for the winter; is ordered to prepare for sea with all possible de spatch, and to proceed at once to Revel. TURNRY.—lntelligence from Constantinople to the 6th instant states that, on the day following, the Sultan's manifesto' was to be read in all the mosques. It was ex pected that hostilities would commence= on the 25th. The son of Redschid Pasha, who left for Schumla on the 4th, has, besides the summons to Prince Gortschakoff, de spatches instructing Omer Pacha what steps to take in case the Russians refuse to evacuate. the' Principalities. Similar instructions have been sent tothe commander of the army in. Asia. The determination of the-government was received by the whole Turkish nation with enthu siasm. The army is eager for war and well disciplined. There are 130000 regulars in Europe; and, 70,000 in Asia.. Fortifications are being carried on on• a large scale, espe cially at Schnmla. The Turkish government has been obliged to commence the issue of paper money. From Cialatz we have news to the 7th instant. Omer Pacha has declared that he will leave the• Danube free to neutral vessels until the 25th of this • month. All. the German officers who have been imparting military. instructions to- the Turks are re-called. The military cordon on the northern frontier will,not be augmented. Accounts have- been received from Constantinople, Trieste, dated the 10th, stating that the Sultan had made a formal demand to the Ambassadors of England and. France to summon the allied fleets to the Bosphorus. The ambassadors had accordingly done. so. The latest accounts from Bucharest represent the plight of the Rus sian army as most pitiable. On the- other hand, the Turks are healthy and in good condition. The army of Omer Pacha, who.has with him 40,000-regulars in a most ' efficient state of discipline, and 35,000 of the redifs,. is 1 animated by the -strongest national feelings, but not with , religious fanaticism; and the stories of outrages com- 1 mitted by the Turkish soldiery on the Christian popula tion are utterly untrue, being Russian fabrications. In the reply of Prince Gortschakoff to- Omer Pacha, he is thus reported to have delivered himself :—" My master is not at war with. Turkey, but I have orders not to leave the Principalities 'until the Porte shall have given to the' Emperor the moral satisfaction he demands. When this point shall have been obtained, I will evacuate the Prin cipalities immediately, whatever the time or the season.. If I am attacked by the Turkish army, I will confine my self to the defensive." Letters from Constantinople in that a collision between the Turks and Russians in Asia is likely to take place before-any engagements on a , larger scale on the Danube. The monk Anthinos has been appointed to the Greek Patriarchate, at Constanti nople, in room of Germans. We-hear from the Danube that Omer Pacha has organized a regiment of Ponton.- niers, who were: making rapid progress every day. He has nearly completed all the materiel for throwing a bridge across the river, but it is not expected that he will make any movement until next spring. Prince Gorts chakoff, it is said, has ordered 3,000 huts to be erected on the left bank of the. Danube, and the Wallachian Govern ment has to. pay 30,000 ducats for their construction. A telegraphic- despatch from Vienna says :—According to advices from Constantinoples of the 15th inst., hostilities were positively expected to commence in about ten. days from that, date. The Sultan having applied for the pre sence of the combined fleets before Constantinople, and Lord Stratford and M. de la Cour having assented to his request, the fleets were momentarily expected. GIBRALTAiI.—By the steam-ship Ripon, arrived at Southampton, we have accounts from Gibraltar to the 15th instant. The British schooner Thrifty put in there with Euxine, six days from Southampton, with the outward damaged bowsprit on the Bth instant. The steamer India mail of the 4th instant, arrived there on the 10th, en route to Malta and Gibraltar. The screw steamer Balbec, 14 days from Kertch, 10 from Constantinople, and five from Malta, touched at Gibraltar on the.l2th instant, on her way to Liverpool. The screw steamer Calpe, six days from Liverpool, arrived on the 12th, and cleared for Genoa and Leghorn. The screw steamer Genova, four days from Marseilles, also arrived, on the 13th instant, bound to Liverpool. The steamer Sultan, with the out ward bound Peninsula mails of the 7th instant, from Southampton, arrived on the 14th instant, and, having been placed in quarantine, was to leave on the 15th, at midnight, for Cadiz, Lisbon, Oporto, Vigo, and Southamp ton. The screw steamer Frankfort, from Leghorn and Palermo, arrived on the 13th instant, and proceeded to Liverpool. Her Majesty's steam-sloop Vesuvius was in the Bay. The steamer Elbe arrived'on the 15th from Lisbon and Cadiz, and left the same evening for Malaga and Marseilles. The French war steamer Petrel was lying at Gibraltar, having come over from Algeciras, on. the 15th. The American ship Julia Howard, for Phila delphia, and the French ship Le Flandre, for Sydney, sailed on the 15th. Tan PENINSULA. —By the steam-ship Sultan, arrived. at Southampton on Sunday, we have dates from Gibral tar the 16th; Cadiz, the 17th, Lisbon, the 19th; and Vigo, the 20th instant. This steamer was detained in quarantine three days at Gibraltar, and, after obtaining a clean bill of health, was admitted to free pratique at Lis bon, but on arrival at Vigo (homeward) a quarantine of three days was imposed. The greatest annoyance is given to these steamers at the Spanish ports, where the so-called sanitary arrangements cause great pecuniary benefits to the authorities, arising from the gross impositions which are practised. H.M. steam-frigate Odin, Captain Scott, was the only foreign vessel of war in the Tagus. The ship Warrior left Lisbon under sail, on the 15th, for Liverpool, being declared unfit to proceed to Australia. The Mary, Captain Millard, from Liverpool for California, put into Lisbon for repairs on the 16th. On the 18th the Rattler steamer arrived from Liverpoolhaving been off Oporto-bar, whence she was ordered to Lisbon, in consequence of the bill of health of the Portuguese Consul, stating the exist enceg German emigrants at an hospital, Liverpool being otherwise free. It the p o o r f t c a h n o d l er a town amoofn was expected that the Rattler would be admitted to pratique, and return to Oporto in a couple of days, when she would have completed eight days from Liverpool, voyage and quarantine observation included. The Water witch, belonging to the same line as the Rattler, had pre viously been very badly treated at Oporto, and the English Minister at Lisbon had supported the agent's claim for losses consequent upon her having been illegally sent to Lisbon, whence she was only able to return to Oporto on the 15th. The Times' correspondent was assured, when the Sultan left Lisbon, that Liverpool steamers and their pas sengers would,with bills of health similar to the Rattler's, be placed (eight days' voyage and obser vation) steamers from Southampton.

AIMICA.--The African mall:screw-steamer Hope, Cap tain Bowen, reached Portsmouth on Sunday, having been unable to make Plymouth on account of the heavy S.W. gales and thick weather, being u n d er sail a lone, and an accident having happened to her air pumps when abreast of Gibraltar, on the 13th instant. Lieutenant Peirs, the Admiralty agent in charge of the mails, died on the pas sage home.

Business at INew Orleans had commenced 0 be brisk. The whole number of interments for nineteen weeks was 10,960, of which 8,143 were fever cases. Letters mention the continued prevalence of yellow fever in the interior of the state. The Star of the West had arrived with advices from San Francisco to the 16th September, and $816,670 in specie on freight. The John L. Stephens had sailed from San Francisco with $1,30,413 in specie. Mining interests continued in a prosperous condition, under the operation of improved machinery. The silver mines of Arrizona, in Sonora, had turned out to be of unparalleled richness. The news had created great excitement among the inha: bitants, and upwards Of 1,000 men had left Guaymas and Hormosilla for the mines. The quantity of quicksilver shipped from San Francisca for the six June Bth exceeded 9,047 flasks. During August 26,722 persons arrived at San Francisco. The number of departures was 18,083, nearly all males. The accounts' of the merciless depredations of the Indians in Sonora are truly startling and melancholy. The savages were murdering the whites, including women and children, wherever they could be found. The' Illinois had arrived at New York, with $1,218,811 in Califon Isthmus January ar yelling condition The-New York Herald says :--" We stated a few day: since that Messrs.

This will be the shortest route between New York and San Francisco, and that it will be the. favourite with the travelling public no one at all acquainted with its adVantages can for a moment doubt. From New York to San Fran cisco, vid the Panama ronte, the distance is 4,992 miles ; rid Nicaragua, 4,531 miles rid Tehuantepec, 3,804 miles. From England to San Francisco, rid Panama, the- distance is 7,502 miles ' • via' Nicaragua, 7,041; and Tehuantepec, 6,671 miles. The distance from New York to San Frahcisco is, rid Tehuantepec, 1,188 miles rrearer than Panama, and' 727 miles nearer than Nicaragua: The distance from , England to San Francisco, via; Tehuantepec, is 831 miles less than by Panama,. and 370 miles less than by Nicaragua. New Orleans is more favourably located in relation to this route than any port of England, or the- port of New York, in the distance-saved. From New Orleans to San Fran cisco, via Tehuantepec, the distance is- 1,801 miles less than by Panama; and 1,063 miles less than by Nicaragua. The geographical position of New Organs is, therefore, not only more• favourable as regards the total distance, but as regards distance saved." e 4 The. Mexican- Legation at Washington had issued a letter declaring that the re-organization of the national force of Mexico is for the purpose of defending the people of that country against the attacks of the wild Indians on the frontiers of the United States, who-have not been re strained by the• latter Government, in accordance with the stipulatious.of the treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo. It is positively denied that Santa Anna intends to employ this great military force either for oppressing his fellow countrymen or to make war upon a friendly power. Letters from St. John's N. 8., report the loss of the steam-ship Fairy Queen. Three ladies. were drowned. Accounts from Hayti state that fever had disappeared.

Letters from New Granada state that the country en joyed• tranquillity, although much agitation existed among the people on, account of the transition from the old to the new constitution. The electoral question had given rise to much discussion, which was carried on to rather an alarming extent in some of the provinces. The question of religion was also creating a good deal of dissatisfaction among some parties, who could not reconcile themselves to the change. _ - - Gov.

The amount sent in for purchase by the Treasury during the last week was $506,000, including the several loans. The curtailmPnt of loans by the banks has thrown a large amount of good paper into the bro kers' hands for negotiation, they rates of discount on which range from 1 to 11, and even 2 per cent. per month. In foreign exchange the market is firm for sterling bills, bankers' signatures, at 110 to 1094 • produce bills, 108 to 1091 ; France, 5 11-1- to 5 121 ; Amsterdam, 41i to 411 ; Hamburgh, 361 to. 36j- ; Bremen, 791 to 80. CoTTow.—(From W. P. Wright's Circular of Oct.. 11.)—Our market has been sensibly affected by the ad vices per Arabia, not so much in price as in the cessation of demand for export. The sales, which consist of only 4,500 bales, have been made chiefly to home consumers, 1 with occasional small parcels to fill freight engagements, or positive orders. Holders still resist the efforts made towards a lower scale of prices, and only sell when the quotations annexed can be realized ; the lower grades must be considered nominal, they being difficult to move ; nor can this be a matter of surprise when the Arabia brings advices of sales of ordinary cotton, made in Liver pool, at about the date of her sailing, at prices below the first cost in this market in May last, and which, if here to-day, would sell within /c. of the price then paid The export since the 4th of October has been, to Liverpool, 2,939 bales; Bremen, 233; Antwerp, 172. Total, 3,344 bales. Prices in this country are considerably higher than any in Europe, which may be accounted for in the belief that the Turkish affair will very soon be peaceably dis posed of. Receipts at the port show a decrease, as com pared with last year, of 77,000 bales. The exports to Great Britain during the past week have been but 4,000 bales, again 10,000 same week last season. The excess since Ist September last is reduced to 3,b00 bales. The accounts continue unfavourable as to the prospects of the growing crop, and in some sections of South and North Carolina a slight frost has already happened, not severe enough, however, to hurt the plant. The following is a statement of the movement in cotton since the Ist of September last, as compared with the previous three years :- 1853 1852 1851 1850.

The prices of choice qualities of wheat are fully maintained, whilst all others, with the exception of red, which is scarce and in demand, can be bought somewhat cheaper than last week. Indian corn has advanced to the extent of 3c. to 4c. per bushel. PROVISIONS.—Mess pork is steady, at $l7 12fc. to $l7 25c.; prime, $l3 871-c. to $l4. 'Beef is firm, and good lots are scarce. Lard steady, and in good demand. Cheese rather lower. . . _ laox.—Holders are quite firm. There is a good inquiry for Scotch pig, at $36 50c. to $37 50c., six months.

Exports : to Liverpool, 1,748 bales ; Havana, 40 ; Vera Cruz, 148. The market has pre sented very little activity. The sales generally indicate a decline of 4c. from the rates current last week. The total sales have been confined to 3,800 bales, of qualities ranging from low middling to middling fair, taken for England, France, &c. Freight to Liverpool, id. The receipts of new crop thus far this season are 21,531 bales, against 99,970 bales to same date last year. Oct. 10.-1,5 00 bales of cotton were sold to-day. The market is heavy and lower.

The last escort that arrived in Melbourne brought down nearly 6,000 ounces-, besides leaving a large quantity behind. Great excitement had been caused at Melbourne in con sequence of the M`lvor Private Escort Company's escort having been attacked and robbed, on its way to Melbourne, account states t hat the escort was ro' of gold dust and a large amount of gold coin, and that four men , in charge of the escort had been killed. A later account states that the escort was attacked by twenty men when about fifteen miles from the Mount M`lvor diggings ) .and that the amount of dust stolen was 8,000 ounces, besides £4,000 in gold coin: No official account of the robbery had, however, reached Melbourne at latest advices. The latest accounts from Perth, Western Australia, are to the 10th July. The operations at the Coal Shales, on the Preston river, were to be discontinued, in consequence of the workmen employed not being able to sink deeper without proper materials, and the boring apparatus sent by Ail not being sufficiently equipped. Ail descriptions or goods and merenanaise were rapidly accumulating in Melbourne ; from, twelve to fourteen arrivals from foreign ports every day.

The barque Tory was wrecked on the 15th July, whilst on her passage from London. She was bound to Port Stephens, with two hundred and eighty passengers, prin cipally for the Peel River Gold Mining Company, and machinery, and had reached to. within seven miles of her destination when she met with the disaster. All the passengers were saved. A. correspondent, writing from Balaarat on the 11th of July, says, One or two rushes have occurred during the last two or three weeks, without any material result. Prince Regent's, or Norton's: Gully, continues to attract the greatest numbers ; whilst that portion of the Eureka abutting on the flat, which was last worked productively, was gradually being abandoned until within the last day or two. Claims are , now being made upon the fiat, which are gradually extending into the valley leading to Balaarat, and,, should a few of these claims turn out well, there is no doubt that the whole , of the valley to Balaarat will be turned up during the. course of the next few months. The escort returns give a very imperfect estimate of the quantity of gold_ produced, and chiefly indicate the quantity sold each week upon the ground, whilst great numbers are hoarding their gold, and refuse to sell more than is sufficient to - supply their immediate wants. The roads are in the most wretched state, and no attempt is made to repair them, or even to make the approaches to the camp to lerably good. Whenever a rush occurs in the neighbour hood of a road, as frequently happens, claims are sure to be marked out, and often holes several feet deep dug in the road itself. The commissioner, as a matter of course, makes his appearance on the following day, and, should he be so fortunate as to catch the delinquents, fines them also, as a matter of course; but no attempt is made to restore the road to its former state, or even to fill up the holes, and the carters are daily compelled to find out fresh tracts for their drays. Not satisfied with compelling storekeepers, schoolmasters, parsons, doctors, and law yers to take out licenses this month, a carter was caught, when looking for his bullocks in the bush,. and fined five pounds for not having a license." _ _ A correspondent of the Melbourne Argus, writing from Mount Wlvor diggings on the 19th July, says, " Since my last communication the diggings at M`lvor have °lightly improved, in an far that ground hitherto neglected, or but badly prospected, has within the last week had a more thorough trial, by sinking through, in cases, no less than three, four, and even five, bottoms of clay, and coming down to the hard rock, at a depth, say, from thirty to fifty feet. In consequence of this deep sinking on the rising eminences and gullies between, run ning along the creek south from the Melbourne Private Escort-office, a heavy rush has taken place, and a consi derable amount of gold has been secured by those who have reached the hard rock bottom. So many false bottoms of clay above referred to have puzzled, until lately, the diggers at Arlvor altogether. One would think the first clay was, the true bottom ; another would imagine the second clay the real thing; another digger the next clay, and so on. Gold certainly is found more or less lying on these day bottoms, and the best and surest way at M`lvor to sink a hole is, first, down to the hard rock ; that reached, then drive under as far as you can ; when that is completed, then fill up the hole to the lowest clay bottom ; drive on that again, and so on up to the highest day bottom in the pit. Another thing I may mention is, that at M`lvor the washing-stuff has quite a yellow red kind of colour, and not that bluey white colour, as at Forest Creek and other diggings. This has deceived many old dig gers; so much so, that in one instance two men realised a heavy weight of gold in nuggets on the Commissioner's Flat, but, not knowing the nature of the soil, threw away their washing-stuff. The two men afterwards separated ; one went to Bendigo,hut the other remained at M`lvor,and, becoming better acquainted with the soil, went back to his 41 out from what they had :dnesday, a fifty-two , in a pit behind the n a fine crystalised I, taken out by a lad den Hill, in posses- Lble rush had also ie Bald Hill, about Private Escort Com understand, the dig- The long flats lying Ivor Creek are also lizaers are rush pre ,t holes, and in the fi week wa thrown away, ten ounce among tn sion of Dr. Waugl iring the rather Among er impro at the at did atone Darr aCki and offices_for the 'ars that be,' in TUESDAY, OCTOBER 25, 1853._ amount somewhere about £5,000.
