A USTRALIA.

ADVICES have been received from Melbourne to the 13th of
July, by tbv man,b. Moore, via' Ceylon, and are consequently
a fortnight later than the prevto.:,

The Mermaid sailed on the 13th, for Liverpool, with
98,677 ounces of gold, and a large mail. The Marco Polo was
to leave on the 21st.

A letter from Melbourne says :
The aspect of affairs at the diggings is not deemed good,
though the Maryborough disturbance was put down. The
insurgent party were Irish ; they were called in the account
Tipperary men, but they number many Irish from other
parts. They were put down by a large display of force.
About 2,000 men organised themselves, drilled, marched in
order, were well armed, and moved in support of order. They
are called the " Allies." The authorities of the locality be-
haved well and prudently, and it is well that troops were not
sent up. At nearly all the diggings, sometimes for mutual
protection, parties have grown up composed of such men as at
Maryborough. They have asked for the sanction of the
government, and Sir Charles Hotham has granted it, provided
they do nothing illegal. Thus they must do nothing at all,
for anything that they should do would be illegal. Sir
Charles will probably get himself into a "scrape" with the
Colonial-office in this matter, for it shows weakness, as well
as want of knowledge.
You will find some discussion in the papers touching the
existence of distress in Collingwood,—the fact even disputed;
but of its existence there and everywhere there can be no
doubt. It is less, however, among the labourers than among
that class brought up to nothing, and not capable of much.
The half-yearly gold accounts have been made up, and
show an, increased production of auriferous extracts. The
increase on the June quarter is 73,750 ounces, which will
increase our purchasing power about £lBO,OOO. The price
to-day is £3 16s. 6d. Exchange at the banks selling at two
per cent.—Freights 4i ; insurance 24 per cent.
Importation continues moderate, and prices steady, some
rising. Our consumption is increasing, in consequence cf the
number of new arrivals. The excess of arrivals over departures
for the first six months of 1855 are 34,908.
The prices of articles of food are almost at famine rates.
Flour is £46 to £5O per ton ; wheat 20s. to 30s. per 701bs. ;
bread Is. 6d. per lb.
An effort is being made to get up a new bank on the
Scotch principle, namely, granting cash credits and allowing
interest.

THE REGISTRATION.—The Conservative Land Society has
this year been again successful in establishing their claims for
the freehold franchise on behalf of their members, both in
Middlesex and Hertfordshire.
AN EXTRIORDINLEY SUICIDE was committed at Hud-
dersfield, on Tuesday. J. W. Fell, whose father is a chemist
at Heckmondwike, was formerly assistant to Mr. Churchyard,
chemist, Dorking, Surrey. He made the acquaintance of
Eliza, daughter of Mr. Latter, draper, of that town, and, repre-
senting himself as being of a higher station in life than be was,
persuaded the young lady, who is 22 years of age, to visit his
parents, saying they had written for him to come home, and
to bring "Lizzy " with him. With her father's consent, they
met at the railway station, Dorking, where Mr. Fell obtained
£5 form Miss Latter, with which he paid the railway fares to
Huddersfield—first-class the whole distance. They arrived
at Huddersfield at 8 25 p.m., and proceeded in a cab to the
house of Mr. Fell's cousin, who is a chemist, in King-street.
When on their way he requested Miss Latter to look at some
fireworks, which she did, and it is supposed he siezed that
opportunity of taking poison, as they had then only'a few
yards to go. When the cab door was opened, he was, however,
unable to descend, and the driver, with the aid of a passer-by,
carried him into Mr. Fell's house, where in seven minutes he
expired. A messenger was sent for Mr. Greenwood, surgeon,
who immediately attended, but his skill was of no avail. On
a search being made, a 1 oz. phial, which had contained prus-
sic acid, was discovered on the seat of the cab. The body was
taken to the Bull and Mouth Inn, where Mr. Ingram held an
inquest upon it, when a verdict of " Temporary. insanity " WAS
returned. The poison must have been procured by deceased
from the shop of his present employer, Mr. Tomlinsom, Lin-
coln, as he had no opportunity of obtaining any during the
journey.

LETTER rnom OnEsse.--In Le Nord, of Brussels, we find
the following letter from Odessa :.—" Odessa, September 17.
W are still without detailed news from Sebastopol, but 1
c. Ight to mention to you the impression produced in our dis-
tricts by the news of the evacuation of the southern part of
the city. I cannot conceal from you that in the first moment
the effect of this news was immense. The profoundest dejec-
tion was stamped on every face, and betrayed real grief. By
degrees we have recovered from this momentary depression ;
and the more we have been able to examine matters with
calmness, the more have tranquillity and hope returned. In
our case it is the heart that has been struck first; as soon as
reason has resumed her empire we have been able to reflect
that the situation is not so changed ; that it is not entirely to
our disadvantage, and that the honour of our arms has been
in no way compromised. We withdrew of our own accor_d to
the north side, whence we continue to defend the ruins f

FRAMPTON'S PILL OF HEALTH.---The mani-
fold advantages to the Heads of Families from the posses-
sion of a Medicine of known efficacy, that may be resorted to
with confidence, and used with success in cases of temporary sick-
ness, occurring in families more or less every day, are so obvious
to all, that no question can be raised of its importance to every
housekeeper in the kingdom.
They are an excellent aperient, create appetite, relieve languor,
and invigorate the spirits, and if taken after an indulgence at
table, they quickly restore the system to its natural state of repose.
" For upwards of nine years (writes Mr. Thomas Province, of
Winchtnore Hitt, Middlesex,) I have experienced the efficacy of
this excellent medicine. I had long previously been afflicted with
headache and indigestion; but a friend having induced me to
make a trial of Frampton's Pills, I now inform you that a few
doses gave me great relief; and during this long period of time
I have taken them in preference to any other medicine; and I
have the happiness of saying that I never had a better state of
health, which I attribute to Frampton's Pills. I beg further to
add, that this medicine is in, ,
general use by my family and we
know of nothing to equal it.'
Persons of a Full Habit, who are subject to Head-ache, Giddi-
ness, Drowsiness, and Singing in the Ears, arising from too great
a flow of Blood to the Head, should never be without them, as
many dangerous symptoms will be entirely carried off by their
immediate use. For Females, liese Pills are truly excellent,
removing all obstructions, the distressing Head-ache so very pre-
valent with the sex; Depression .
of Spirits,
Dulness of Sight, Ner-
vous Affections, Blotches, Pimples, and Sallowness of the Skin,
and give a healthy and juvenile bloom to the complexion:
T
Mothers they are confidently' recommended as the best medicineo
that can be taken ; and for children of all ages they are
unequalled. As a pleasant, safe, and easy Aperient, they
unite the recommendation of a mild operation with the most
successful effect. By regulating the dose, accort ergetvoty case,
in and strength of the patient, they become suitable
in either sex, that can be required.

BROMLEY'S PATENT EMPIRE SOAP,
which heretofore has been difficult to be obtained, as very
few of the grocers will keep it. To use their own words, by way
of explanation, they state,—" Were we to buy it, it would reduce
our sales fully one third, as two pounds of the Empire Soap will
go as far as three pounds of any other soap ; we should also lose
our profit on soda and washing powders, as neither of these
articles are required when the Empire Soap is used, in either the
hardest water or in sea water." What the grocers are displeased
at in this soap is its strongest recommendation to the notice of
the large consumers, private families, hotel keepers, laundresses,
&c. It only requires to be used with a light hand. And besides
the above advantage it saves half the usual labour, consequently
less friction and wear in the clothes, and will not injure the
colours in the most delicate prints ; and is equally valuable for
every other domestic purpose, even for toilet use, as it is a pure
soap, free from rosin and other useless ingredients, which not
only add unnecessary weight to the soap but detract from its
cleansing properties.
