THE DEATH OF SIR CHARLES HOTHA/41.

By way of Batavia some copies of the Melbourne
Argus have been received to the 7th January. The
death of Sir Charles Hotham, K.C.8., Governor of
Victoria, took place suddenly at Melbourne on the
31st December. The remains of his Excellency were
interred on January 4, marked by the moat public
regret, all the shops being closed out of respect for
the departed governor.
The loss of the Royal Mail ship Schomberg within
about thirty miles of Port Phillip Heads, on her
outward passage, has caused the utmost excitement
in the colony, and the peculiar and aggravating cit.
cumatanoes connected with the disaster have been
notified by the passengers in an " iodiguation"meet.
ing held at Melbourne. Some days after the lose was
known Capt. Forbes addressed a letter to the Arguss
which that journal deems most unsatisfactory. From
the Argus of January 7, it appears that the matter
was to be taken up by government. The emigration
agent was about to lay informations at the imitation
of the passengers. The wreck of the Schomberg
had been visited by Voyd's agent; she was not
totally broken up, bat there was no opportunity of
c )mmunicating with the wreck—it was not expected
thst any thing would to saved.

The mining and commercial news from Melbourne
were, on the whole, satisfactory. Trade was dull, as
usual at this season of the year, and very few of
the diggers had quitted the mining districts
for Melbourne, as customary at Christmas.
News from Ballarat states that mining operations
were somewhat slack, and the miners were
enjoying the festiviti.s of the season. Disturbances
between the miners and CXinese were still of fro.
quest occurrence, the Europeans being the principal
aggressors. Great preparations were made at the
diggings for new year's rejoicings, which were inter-
rupted by news of the death of Sir Charles Hotharn,
and the rejoicings were everywhere postponed.
At Melbourne gold remained quiet at 31. 18s. per
ounce. On January 5, H.M.S. Fantome sailed
for England, via Sydney. The price of wool had a
downward tendency; 171 d. was realized on one
large flock, which, at the beginning of December,
would have commanded a penny more. Tallow, good
mixed, was sold at auction at 39!. ss. ; very superior
mutton tallow at 421. A large parcel of hides wail
sold on January 6at 139. 63. Agricultural la-
bourers were in great demand, as also female ser-
vants for the diggings.
The temporary government of Victoria is in the
hands of General Macerthur, commanding the mill.
tary.
The Red Jacket was to leave Melbourne for Fog-
land on January 8.

This programme shows the high quality of the concert, and
it is sufficient to add that the performance was as excellentes
the selection was judicious. One circumetence, however,
ought to be specially communicated. Mir Arabella Giddaed
(as will be seen from the programme) was to have performed
Beethoven's oonoerto in E fist ; but, alter the concert had
helm, intimation was received that she had been suddenly
taken ill, and was unable to uproar. In this emergeuey.
Mr. W. Canine (who was is the orchestra) was requested
by the director to take her place. He consented ; and.
without the slightest preparation, sat down to l error= one
of the greatest and meat arduous works that ever
have been written for the pianoforte. He not only per-
; formed it, bet performed it magnificently, with a
strength of hand, a brilliancy of execution, a beauty of
tone and elegance of pinasieg in the cantatas purifier, and
a thorough comprehension of the sutbor'e messier, that
would have done heroin to any of our most eminent
pianists. We have long entertained and ezpressed a high
opinion of the talents of this young musician, but have
before men them put to so *avers a test. His
success was complete. At the conclusion of his perform's',
the room rang with applause. in which the orchestra
werenly joined. This achievement, so honourable to his
talents, will undoubtedly by remembered to the young per-
former's advantage.

LOMBARDY.

A letter from Milan of the 19th, published in the

performed some fresh acts of rigour during the last
few days. One Berego, employed at the Grand Hoe.
pital, has been arrested and sent to Mantua. It is
said that some Mazzinien correspondence was found
upon him. Other persons have been summoned be.
fore the police and severely warned to be more pru-
dent in future in their conversation. The police
have also made a descent at the houses of others, bat
without discovering anything that can be used
against them." In the same letter regret is ex-
pressed that the foreign journals which would die•
prove the constant boastings of the Journal de Mien,
(Austrian) that England has abandoned Piedmont,
are not allowed to circulate amongst the Milani's.

THE LAST RUSSIAN CIRCULAR.

The Press* of Bred:eels contains the following :
"At the moment of going to press we receive from
Paris a despatch, giving us the precise kering of the
last circular of Prince Clortchakoff. According to
this despatch, which proceeds from an undoubted
source, the circular of the Russian Minister of Fo-
reign Affairs is couched in moderate and conciliatory
language ; but Russia abandons neither her opinions
nor her claims on Bolgrad, and she oils for the
meeting of a conference, to the decision of which
she will defer unhesitatingly." The news given here
in so positive a manner confirms the intelligence
which had already reached us on the subject from
Berlin sad Vienna.

Western Railway Company has attained, for
despite the minor drawbacks to which we have
alluded, the public are evidently improved with a
belief that the general management of this Company
is good and well intended. A comparison of the
present price of its stock with that of a year or
two took will prove that the gain to the shareholders
is in every sense a most substantial one.
Unfortunately the commercial moos of the
London end South-Western is not general amongst
railway companies. Some of the forthcoming half-
yearly statements will compare bet poorly, we are
afraid, with this Company's report. Bat let not
shareholders be discouraged. The good fortune
of the London and Soath-Western Company, it

respect the undertakieg entreats most favourably
with the mobarnused Great Western Company, which
some months buck, as all the world kaows, was put
to sore straw in the mural or discharge of the
debentures falling due. BM the improved system of
managesseat which has sleeved the London and
Booth-Western line, is equally open to the adoption
of every other railway company in the kingdom.
And we saterts;u a full conviction that to this pus
things meet come at last. False, garbled, or even
disiagenaons accounts ought really by this time to

THE SOUND DUES.

This morning was issue" the report from the select

committee on Sound Date, together with the proceedings
of the oommittse and minutes of 'widener. The report
states that the committee did not consider it within their
erovinee to inquire iota the right exercised by the crown of
Denmark to levy tolls on ships Gni merchandise pusiug be-
' &weep the German Ocean and the Baltic Sea. It was matter
of Lister, that this country b►d acquiesced in the payment
of these dace for some centuries past, and th►t at this time
they were paid and regulated under engagement by treaty
made between the two countries for that purpose.
In the year 1840, and several previous year., complaints
having been urged by the trade upon the government of
the injurious operation of these does, a revision of the
tariff took place, and in 1841 the treaty (now I. operation)
purporting to glee effect to the new regulation, was con-
cluded in London. The dues w►ich are now imperfect con-
sist of a fixed duty levied uniformly upon all chips above
forty toss, and a smaller duty upon vessel. of lees tonnage,
the proceeds of which are said to be applied to the main-
tenance of light., buoys, and beacon,; and also of duties
on cargoes levied specifically on certain goof* which are
enumerated, and on all goods unenumereted, at the
rate of one per cent. od salovons, the amount of
which is avowedly for the purpose of Danish revenue. The
miichief and inconvenience attending upon the payment of
these dues appeared a matter of przat complaint among all
persons engaged in this branch of our trade. This Nero to
arise partly from the rate at which they are levied,
but mainly Uwe the manner in which they are collected.
The detention of vessels, rendered weaseary by the
collection of sound dues et Elsinore, appears to
be a fertile source of mischief and needier' n-
pease, which is not adequately me 00000 d by the
payments actually made to the Danish government.
The report adde that t►e system of clearieg vested' at
lileicore was productive of great expense and inconvenient*,
while the burden falling on British commerce from these
due/ was not less than between 200,0001. and 300,0001. per
annum. There were many other objections against these
imposts, and the committee bad no hesitation in declaring•
their opinion that they ought to be abolished ; and the
committee strongly recommend that, in any negotiation
that may take place for their abolition, the tallest conoideru-
tion should be given to the memos of securing for trade
free transit through any part of the Danish territory. The
committee forbear to express any option upon the merits
of the different plans whieb ►ave been suggested for W3COLI.

to decide on the means to be adopted for carrying into effect

MINES-THIS DAY,

• Two ollugaz.
The gold mining shires remain without improve-
ment.

Linares shares have been dealt in at 71. Other
stocks are quiet.
Copper continues very firm, and the demand is
extremely good; mazy parcels of foreign have been
taken by buyers. Welsh manufactured iron has been
to good demand, and prices have advanced and are
firm at the quotations. Staffordshire is not much in-
quired after, and there is a considerable amount of
underselling taking place. Speculators in Scotch
pigs have been rather frightened at another week's
small shipments (only 6,813 tons against 11,076
corresponding week last year), and prices have de-
clined 3s. per ton. Mixed Noe., good brands, are
now 745. per ton for Glasgow, and same period 1865
they were 655. Lead is firm at the quotations, end a
fair business is doing. Spelter has been more in-
quired for, the stock here is only 3,058 tons, and
prices are firm. Tin and tin plates are without
alteration, there is a good inquiry for the latter.

he said " No." I asked him why, and he deolined to tall
me, for reasons of his own. I risked him where Redpeth
was. He replied, " I will not tell you." This was
at Lis own holm. When I searched him I took a key from
him, which opened a drawer in his office. On reaching
that office I found al lettere from Mr. Redpath to him.
Mr. Martin said—l ism a dirk in the registration.offire.

SWEDEN.

A letter from Helsingtors, in the ilastross Gazette,
says The activity displayed in the improvement
of our navy continues in spite of the advanced season.
it is natural that Sweden should be alarmed by these
measures, and the government of that country has
determined not only on carrying out a series of for-
tifications in the interior, which will form a system
of central defence, but will likewise reinforce the
lexisting forts. The firearms of the army will like-
wise be changed; and, in a few year, the whole of
the Swedish army will be armed with rifles. An
order for 6,000 rifles for coign' balls has already
been given in Belgium. The staff officers of the
Swedish army are at present occupied In drawing up
a minute map of Sweden."

AUSTRIAN ITALY.

We read in the Debate:—" Several foreign journals
publish the text of a deem of the Emperor of Aus-
tria re-establishing in the Lombardo-Venetian king-
dom the representative assemblies known under the
appellation of (Amaral CgEgregati.ins. It is scarcely
necessary to remark thirthis is a mums of very
small importance. The revival of these provincial,
assemblies, whose attribute' are only administrative,
and purely consultative, doss not in any material
degree modify the political organisation of the
Lombardo. Venetian kingdom such as it was consti-
tuted in 1815. However, there can be little doubt
that the occasion for the measure was the project .of
the Emperor of Austria to visit Lombardy, and it is
on that point of view only that we think it worth
notice."
