AUSTRALIA.

THE Ballarat (Jones) has arrived from Melbourne in sixty-
nine days, with 110,000 ounces of gold and 2,500 sovereigns
—total value £442,500, and 100 passengers. She brings but
a small mail, the Oliver Lang being appointed to sail on the
21st of August, the Surprise on the 20th, the White Star on
the 30th, and the Kent on the Bth of September. Her dates
are to the 19th of August, being about four weeks later than
those last received. The reports from the goldfields continue
favourable, especially as regards the yield from quartz. Trade
was steady and provisions rather lower, but the high prices so
long prevalent had caused great distress, and a petition, signed
by 1,996 unemployed persons, many of them with families
dependent upon them, had been presented to the governor for
some plan of relief. A government committee had accordingly
been appointed to devise the requisite measures. The failure
of a firm, styled Adamson, Watts, M'Kechnie, and Co., with
liabilities for £46,000, appears to have excited attention. From
Sydney the accounts were to the 15th of July. The price of
bread was still high and wages were declining, but some large
arrivals of breadstuffs were taking place from San Francisco
and the Pacific ports generally. The main trunk railway
between Sydney and Paramatta was expected to be opened in
about five weeks.

to the "palm of eloquence"---that might which moves
stones to mutiny and rage ?" It is not in the force
of logic ; but in the feeling of sympathy, in the con-
templation of the lofty beauty of power, and in the
thrill of passion's potency--in short, the power and
perfection of eloquence is in excitement. Truth is
always exciting ; therefore eloquence is the language
of truth. Virtue is beauty and enthusiasm, and thus
assimilates by its loveliness and power. Vice is cursed
with deformity and torpor. Wise, just, and beautiful
is the law and trust of nature, which lodges power in
truth and virtue.

THE WAR.

Purrs, Tuesday.
The Moniteur publishes the report of the 11th Sept., of
Marshal Pelissier and General Niel, of the capture of Sebasto-
pol; also the order of the day of the former, announcing the
great fact to the army. -
The French ambassador at Constantinople had placed the
palace of the embassy at the disposal of the commandant of
the town for the reception and treatment of the sick and
wounded officers from Sebastopol.
The Times says: We have not yet received the letters of
our own correspondent with the details of the capture of
Sebastopol.

The Siniois has brought the official despatches of the French
commander-in-chief, and the letters by the Carmel may be
hourly expected.
A white flag having been hoisted by the Russians on Fort
Constantine a conference took place between Prince Gortscha•
koff and Captain Drummond, R.N. It was erroneously 'stated
that General de la Motte Rouge is killed ; also that Colonel
Seymour is killed. The latter is wounded, and returns to
England.

The Northern Forts opened on the evening of the Bth a
terrible fire upon the French position. The Russians are said
to have destroyed all the forts, and bastions south of the road-
stead, including Forts St. Paul, Nicholas, Alexander, and the
Quarantine.
A picked body of Sardinians fought with the English in
the attack on the Redan. 1,500 Russians are said to have
been made prisoners in the assault on the Malakhoff.
There is a report that the Russians were advancing on
Mackenzie's Farm.

MENT TO THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD.

they had acquired. But the eye of a vengeful
people never sleeps; they were intercepted by
bands of Haiducs, Ouskoks, and Klepts, who
united to the peasants, now desperate, massacred
every soul that fell into their hands to the amount
of several thousands, and so great was the booty,
including weapons and ammunition, that the
spoil of the Arnout is still a proverb, and the
victory the subject of many a spirit-stirring piesma
among the Sclavonian bards and story-tellers.
Encouraged by success, the insurrection may
be said to have only now commenced, several
towns and isolated forts successively fell into the
hands of the insurgents. Sofia and Nissa, to-
gether with many other important towns in Bul-
garia, were again besieged, and even Stamboul
was not secure, since the revolt had now spread
into Macedonia, Thessaly, and Candia ; and it
may with truth be said, that the fate of the
Ottoman Porte trembled in the balance, while
the humiliated sovereign, to preserve his rule,
saw himself obliged to seek the mediation of the
Patriarch of Constantinople, and also that of the
Russian Ambassador. The mediators between
the Sovereign and his people, in effecting a re-
conciliation, were aided by the industrious habits
of the Bulgarian tribes, whose love for home and
smiling fields prevailed over the excitement of
glorious war, and they were again induced, by
many promises of ameliorating their social con-
dition, to give up the contest.—Spencer's Travels

PROVISIONS.

LIVERPOOL, SEPT. 21.—There is increased firmness and
rather more activity in the market for beef, chiefly in conse-
quence of a government contract (to be tendered for on the 12th
of November) being announced. In the early part of the week
some small parcels of western pork were taken for export, at
former rates, but since the announcement of the government con-
tract, holders have advanced their prices ; buyers, however, bang
back, purchasing only for immediate wants. Further advanced
prices have again been made for bacon, and the stock is reduced
lower point than for several years past. A fair inquiry exists
for lard, and very full prices have been paid, with sales exceeding
150 tons. There is less activity in cheese; but fine qualities still
maintain previous rates. Grease butter is still asked for.
SEPT. 24.—Butter was in very good demand during the past
week, at full prices. The supply is liberal. Fine qualities are
scarce, and all good and middling descriptions meet with a ready
sale at 98s to 100 s per cwt. landed. Waterford and Dungarvan,
9Ss to 102 s; Kilkenny, Carrick, Wexford, Clonmel, and Callow,
98s to 995; Limerick, 95s to 9Ss; and Sligo, 94s to 99s per cwt. I landed. Imported from Ireland from the 15th to the 21st instant,
both inclusive, 13,633 firkins, 100 kegs, 351 crocks, 278 boxes, and
171 barrels butter, 3 bales bacon 1 hhd. hams, 1 hhd., 91 tierces,

THE HARVEST.

So much of national prosperity depends upon the
abundance of the harvest, that it is gratifying to notice
the really beautiful weather with which Providence
has lately blessed the nation. It has come at what
may be called the' latter end of the harvest ; but it
must be remembered that this is of the greater im-
portance, inasmuch as it is the late districts which
ordinarily suffer most from unfavourable weather. It
has enabled the farmers to get in their corn in the
best possible condition, and at the same time to banish
those apprehensions which were at one time enter-
tained of the re-appearance of disease in the potato
crop. The latter 'esculent enters largely into the food
of the population, and whatever may be the statements
made by those whose interests are to keep up prices,
the public may
,judge for themselves ,cf their falsity
by the quality of the potatoes which they consume.
These are nOtoriously what is called mealy, and it is a
well-known 'fact that the tendency ,of the disease is to
injure or destroy this quality ; so that it may confi-
dently be Assumed that this crop 'hos not been in better
condition since the first appearance of this mysterious
disorder about nine years ago. The effect will neces-
sarily le to diminish the consumption of wheat ; and -as
the latter article has been kept at a high price, owing
to the demands for the continent, where the harvest,
though late, is now being gathered in good condition,
we may reasonably anticipate that recent high prices,
wlach have already begunito give way, will very shortly
considerably reduced.
The reports from Ameiica concur in representations
of a most abundant yield of the wheat harvest, and the
price of flour in the New York market has 'very ra-
pidly fallen. The downfal of the Russian power in the
Black Sea will open the resources of the Danube for
large supplies from that quarter ; so that, with our own
harvest, which is row acknowledged by competent
authorities to be above an average, in addition to the
much greater breadth of land in wheat, 'there ought
to be no fears as to a sufficiency of food for the popu-
lation. The fine weather will have added materially
to the resources •6f the country, enabling us so much
the better to bear the heavy burdens rendered neces-
sary by the war ; and even the pressure on the money
market will not be without a good effect, because it
' will impose a Wholesome restriction on the operations
of mere speculators, who look for their gains from
national distress.
