At the meeting of the Omani Miring Anociation a divi-

menced operations in 182.5, under a rant from the late Doke
of York, for winking some coal mines in Nova Bootie. We
learn that the negotiations which have been so long pending
between his royal highness's creditors end the company ars
likely to be brought to a satkfactary termination.
Tao meeting of debenture holders of the Company of
Copper Miners in England, we regret to say, terminated
without condi gto say arrangement. There appeared to be
an dimes unanimous complaint that the committee ap-
pointed in lily, 1848, had been very maim is their duties;
in fact, so much so, that the debenture holders had begun to
think of =Vag for themselves individually. Various opinions
were given by the several speakers of the value of tie pro-

mittee should be appointed to dleewee end prepare an image.

one, however, was willies to serve on this committee ; at d
them belag a little mosimity, the meeting was forced to
adjourn, to give the &bents= holders time to consider the

report.
Some large purchases have been effected in the North Bri.
tish Aerraltslan Company. Ws learn that the Cheapside
has arrived with 83 halm of wool and 100 toes of copper
refrains, and the Lisbon& HUMS with 26 balm, 58 tons of
copper ors, and 63 toes of regulas and that the Catherine
Jamieson is shortly expected. We find from an assay of a
sample of regales, taken indiscriminately from the pi e, that
it gives 16 per cent. pare copper.
