We have advice, from Melbourne, ria Callao, to
the 25th of June, five days later than the last dates.
Serious collisions have taken place between the
Irish at the Maryborough diggings and the miners.
The "Tips," as the former are called, attempted to
take the law into their own hands relative to " jump-
ing" claims, but the miners rose en masse to the num-
ber of three thousand, and obliged them to conform
to law and usage. The miners are known as "the
Allies," in contradistinction to the "Tips." Military
and police have been sent to preEerve the peace in the
district.

-----
A mutual protection society has been formed, with
the unction of the government.
At the Ballarat diggings tho Irish have also been
placing themselves in opposition to the English,
Scotch, and American miners, snd scenes similar to
thou at Maryborough have occurred.
At Maryborough a " Tip," who rashly presented his
gun at a body of 2,000 of the " Allies," was fired at
twice, and slightly wounded.
The yield of gold is steady, and there are great
hopes of making exports of gold this year a hundred
tons.

The population of the colony is returned at 304,150,
but this is thought to be too low.
The rate of exchange on London has been raised to
31 per cent.
The Argus publishes comparative statements of
the exports and imports to Melbourne for the fine
quarters of 1854 and 1855.
In Imports we find 3,248,261/. in 1855, against
6,167,4221. in 1854; in exports, 2,615,315/. in 1854,
against 2,997,167 in 1855. The exports from the
termination of the first qusrter to the end of the week
ending June 9th, were 2,275,0971., and the imports
to the same period, 1,704,883/.
The proposed means of raising the revenue of the
colony by the addition of 10 per cent. ad valorem
duty on all articles not before taxed, was withdrawn
on account of its unpopularity.
Oa the 21st, flour had advanced—Chili, 4/. per too,
and ell other kinds 21.; wheat is quoted at 20s. per

BATES.

__—
In consequence of an expectation that some peneeedings
would be taken this morning in the Ore of Molars. Paul,
&robin, sad Betel, the bankers, who are skived with
fraudulently appropriating irs!uable eecarities beleagleg to
one of dint smtiotaan, to a large 'anent, the lout woo
filled at aa early hoar.
At tom °Week Mr. Justin Crompton mid Mr. Janke
Crowder took their seats upon the beach.

All the defendants wore in attendant*, ready t, eurrender.
The Attorney. General and Mr. Bodkin appeared for
the prtaseatice. Mr. Ballantine appeared for Sir John
Paul and Mr. &ratan, and Mr. Parry attended on behalf
of Mr. Bates.

Mr. BaMatra*, addreming the Court, said he was in-
structed to apply for a peotponement of the trial. They
were only ememitted on the 12th inst., sad the attorney for
the prisoners had only been able to obtain a copy of the
depositions on the precious day.
Mr. Julies Crompton said that before the application
could b entertained, the defendants mast surrender and
plead.

Mr. Bellantine said he had no objection to this Donne, and
all the defendants then turrendered. They were allowed to
stand behind their counsel, and were not placed in the
dock.

Mr. %Santini then renewed his application, and said that
the ground upon which the postponement was asked ter
WM that the defendants hod really not had time to pre-
pare to' answer the chugs,. The indictment was one of
a very special character, and the exhibit, alone tilled seventy
sheets, and them documents had only been obtained on Sa-
turday last.

Thi Attorney-General said he felt that he could hardly
oppose the application that had been made, but at the salmi
time be meat observe, that the charge had been under in-1
yields*m for a considerable period, and the legal advisers
of the primmest must have boon perfectly well aware of the
oaten of the charge. The only difficulty that appeared to
La in the 'see was with regard to the feet that the prison-
ers were hosed to attend at the Court of Bankruptcy.. the
9th October, and if they failed to do so, they would be
pity sf isksay, and this Might Malta a question in the
farther prissention of the proceedings, and also with regard
to the reeepteasees.

Kr. BsManse said he would undertake that an applies-
boa afFilid be made by Mr. Lewis, the attorney for the pri-
mer', to the Commissioner, to postpone the day foe the
mad 'rumination ; sad he apprehended that the applies-
non would, under the cireurorances, be at ones acceded to.
The AttoraeyOeaerel expressed himself satisfied with
the sadertekiag, and said that the defendants would, oil
MIMI, be required to enter into fresh reoegnisasem.
Mr. Justice Crowder mid—Of wine, as they had our lii
-
rendered, the recognisance' most be renewed.
The defendants and their sureties then metered Into real-
minuse is the original amount—namely, each In the sum
of 10,000,., with two sureties in b,OOOl. each, and they then
left the lout.
