Hos of the eolmy the 'puss of l.nd dabbling by officers

evil. Amasser* has been promulgated by Bir Wm. Denison
prohibiting the practice. The heavy reductions in the price

the advantages to be derived from establishing dommtia
Illeou!setures is the colony. Efforts are being made to as.
tahliPh houses of refuge or unfortunate women, to ACM
them the meanie' retormatios. The most inartistic and inte-
resting news connected with this colony is the instlintioe of a
smel.leg coos any at Hubert Town, with a capital of
20,0001, amain to be raised is that place and the remin-
der in Adelaide, the object being to smelt the ores of South
Australia, using as fuel wood or COSI, hof which are
very abundant, and shipping the copper 13 England. Ship-
building is making grwt progress in the colony, twine prose-
cuted mere vigorously than berstmore. The Latenceaton
Adeertiur of 19th Sept. says :

NEW ZEALAND. -Accounts bare been received
from Auckland to the beg inking of September. The Go-
vernor-in Chief, Sir George Grey, quitted the province of
New U later for Welling' on on the 2nd August, and the
newly•appointed LieutenantAlowernor, Major•Oen. Pitt,
assumed the administration of g tvernment during the ab-
sence of his excellency. The n ethern province was said to
be advancing rapidly. The pensioner Peecibles were all doing
well, and their interests were advocated in a journal
of their own called the Pensioner's Gazelle. Her
Majesty's ship, H.ivannah, we. daily expected. The
Wesleyan miciiionicries have set the 'temple of es-
tablishing a college sods. minary ; the foundation stone of the
building was laid at Anddaad by the ;moral superintendent,
end Swag thought the seminary would be open to receive pupils
suly in the spring. The Anglo. Maori Warder, a journal
published in English and Muni, had get involved in a dim
ate with Governor Grey, which has ended in his Excel-
lency's
suppression or extinction of the Journal, by com-
pelling, on pain of dismissal, sit officers wider government
to withdraw the r support. This step has roused the press
to a defence oi its liberty, and the governor is held up in Os
Auckland journals as the most despotic of rulers. Every-
thing was peaceable throughout the colmy. The settlement
of Middle Inland was proceed:nu most favourably. Tee-
totalism is fl iurishing at Heuwan. The mining dispute hail
been settled. As an example of the rapid 'denim of New
Zealand, it may be noticed that public omnibuses ply up
and down the streets of Wellington.

means of concentrating the strength of the West Riding
liberals in be half of retrenchment and reduction of ea:idiom.

TIN CROFT MINING COMPANY.—A special general
*Min of proprietors in this company was held oa Friday
at 44, Finsbury-.guars, to hear a report read.—Mr.
Hodson having taken the chair, proceeded to read the
report, wbi h gays a most promising account of the
company's affairs. A new lease of the mines, on most ad-
men,' ous terms, had bees procured. A call had been in-
tended; but, in consequence of 'he present tutoring pros-
pects of the undertaking, it would not be necessary. Sixty
thousand pounds' worth of ore was now in sight, and ,it was
the intention of the directors to commence smelting it on
