SHEFFIELD ELECTION.

An event unprecedented in the political history of
Sheffield has happened this week—the election of a borough
member without a contest. The proud distinction of bring
thus unanimously returned has Ethan upon Mr. John Arthur
Roebuck.
The election took place on Thursday morning, when Mr.
W. 711181 a proposed, and Mr. E. SIIITH seoonded, John
Arthur Roebuck. ea a flt and proper person to represent
Skeillad in parliament.
Mr. IRONSIDE supported the nomination, and stated at
some length his reasons for doing so.
The MAYOR said—As no ether candidate is proposed, I
hereby declare John Arthur Roebuck, Emu., duly leated one
tithe .embers for the borough of Sheffield to Bcerri in the
thinsmom BOWS of Parliament. (Loud sophisms.)
Mr. ROEBUCK said—l am beres.gentlemen,

heard it said that
:labur Is the source of all wealth. I
allow it in one that t don't for a mouteat deceive your-
selves. Labour most be conducted by in'elligence to make
that labour effective. Intelligence must coma, to labour's
aid, and while you are labouring you must he fed. There-
fore, don't impose that mere brute force is all. What isfore,
it that distinguishes England ? It is her intelligence
directing her Tabour ; and therefore I say that the mere
fast of marshalling before any man a hundred thousand mere
labourers lo nothing, =lees.bsoide. the mere brute (ores you
have intelligassa and wherewith to maintain that brute
lore& Therefore I may again, do not be deceived in the
waning of the phrase that labour is the source of ell wealth.

The motley of objection keying been proved,
The BARLISTII called fur proof of qualification.
Mr. Nasals (who attended is support of bie claim) de-
posed that he had bought the land oa the 16. h Nov., 1848,

The Baaatcriz—What is the land worth ?
Mr. Noklals-1 have been offend 11/. a year for it.
Mr. Janos—Bat do you der.ve any profit from it? Is it

welch he paid Wig and it was alleged that 304 a year mighti
be Ilbuised as a ground-rent from it ; but no profit kad yet
been derived hos it. The question was adj ournell from
time to time, and at length it wee decided by Mr. Walpole,
at the court at klanetell, that unless it Gould be proved that
the claimant had derived 40e. a year item the property, tee
claim weld not be sustained, and it was accordingly struck
out. Mr. James mooned that the franchise must remain in
abeyance until the property yielded something, which at pre-
' mot it appeared it did not.
Mr. P blistered that in themes of " Copley v. Butlet,"
it was decided that ludas the party derioed 40e. a year clear
to expeed —that WII4 • deer eme of 40e. a year—be was
not entitled to the franchise.

AUSTRALIAN COLONIES,

VAN DIEMEN'S LAND.
By way of Adelaide and Batavia, Hobart Town
journals have reached us to the 1511 Augutt. We
observe the Courier of August 11 reports the R yal
Bank of Australasia in difficulties, and states that
300,0001. of tLeir bonds were floating about London,
with no assets to pay them. From a draft of the
estimates of the revenue and expenditure of the
colony for 1850, it would appear the probable reve-
nue is estimated at 137,4461. 14s. 7d. ; the sum re-
quired to de ray the expenses cf government is
137.0291. 7s. 6d., of which amount no less than
98,2391. lls. 11d. is required for salaries, allowAtces,
and office contingencies, 1,3001. for charitable pur-
poses, 4,195/.125. 6d. for educaton, 8,7541. ss. for
public works, and 3,5391. 61. 3d. for roads, streets,
&c. The heavy charges for salaries, &c., have excited
some degree of indignation, inasmuch as the charge s
are rapidly increasing on the receipts. It would
appear that the expense of collecting the customs is
not quite 7 per cent. The following extracts are the
only items of interest in the journals before us :
At one of its meetings, Mr. Gregeon pave notice of his in-
tention to move f v a ?Aura of the number of schools, both
general and denominational, which have curing the past
year been au Totted, either wholly or in part, by public
money, with the number of children attending each school;
the names of the schoolmaster and ect.oolmistresses, and
their condition in life, that is, whether any of them have
been other then free ; and the net revenue of each, whether
arising from government cuntribations, or from fees paid by
the parents of the children, or from other sources.
Tot-La.—Separate from the cost of erecting the toll gate
on the main line of road, we lint the coat of collection is
such as ought to deter from this method of raising money.
The revenue at New Town gate is estimated at 8001.; at
Sand Hlll, 4601 ; total, 1,260 C; and the salaries of the col-
lectors amount to 2431. 5a., or nearly 20 per cent. on the
sum collected. The expense of collecting the customs is not
7 per cent.—Eraminer.

SOUTH AUSTRALIA.

By way of Singapore Adelaide journals have been
received to the 10th of September. Judge Cooper
had announced that indisposition would prevent his
sitting at the criminal sessions, which has led to the
selection of a puisne judge at 8001. a year ; much
dissatisfaction appears to exist at the irregularity of
the court's sitting owing to the judge's abs-nce. The
South Australian, Sept. 4th, notices a series of out-
rages committed on the natives on Yorke's peninsula,
London, England, 1849-12-21

ITALY.

ROMAN STATES.—The Osservatore Romano
announces that the Papal government has concluded
a loan with a French hanking-house, but it does not
state the amount. The jesuits are shortly to be rein-
stated at Orvieto.
The Giornale di Roma of the 11th states that M.
Mazio, director of the Pontifical Mint, was attacked
on the night of the 7.h by an unknown individual,
and wounded in the neck. The wound was but slight.
SARDINIA.—There is a alight change in the Turin
ministry to notice. M. de Marghtrita, minister ot
grace and justice, who is appointed judge of the Court
of Caseation, is succeeded by Baron Sicardi, who has
just returned from a mission to the Pope, at Partici.
The Piedmontese Gazette contains a notice, inviting
the deputies of the new Chamber to meet on the 19.1,
for the despatch of preliminary matters.
The Opinions of Turin, of the 16th, has the follow-
ing :—" We have announced—too hastily, perhaps—
that letters of naturalisation had been granted to
Court Mamiani. The apostolical nuncio is desirous
of avenging Pius IX. for Mamiani's declaration that
papacy is incompatible with temporal power;
although he (Mamiani) at the same time protested
against the republic. The cabinet. on the other hand.
fear his great political talent and hie unblemis'aed
fame, and thus they hesitate to confer the right of
citizenship upon him, although it would be • gnat
honour for Piedmont, and an advantage to the Chem-

The Press and the Consiilutionnel state that Count
Mamiani hu been actually refused his letters of na-
turalisation.
The Notional, of Turin, of the 16th inst., mentions
numerous political arrests that have taken place at
Genoa, in consequence of the police having discovered
some traces of an intended political movement
TUSCANY.—The Grand Duke of Tuscany has
disbanded the three regiments of infantry that formed
his army. A few picked me:, are to be incorporated
in the N elites. Disturbances having broken out in
the village of Incise, a detachment of Austrian in-
fantry and a piquet of cavalry have been dispatched
there to restore order. Letters from Leghorn of the
1 13th state that the querantine on vessels from Mar-
, seines has been reduced to five days.

RAILWAYS.

Tina DAT, Two o'CLooz.

The decline in the Eoglish stack mark ,t, combined
with the knowledge of the fact that the traffic re-
turas of several of the leading lines exhibit a consi-
derable decrease this week, as compared with the
corresponding week of last year, has caused
a great degree of heaviness in the share
market to-day, and prices generally tend down-
' wards. There is, however, very little business gciog
forward, the public and the jobbers is the " house
seeming equally disinclined to operate. Caledonians
were last dune at 101,; Ortat N irtheres, at 7 ;
Brighton., at 781 ; Lend ani North Westerns, at
110; Midlands, at 46; South Eastern., at 181.

the object of which is to make pecuniary advances to
the industrial poor. The capital is formed of funds
invested without interest by benevolent persons. The
bank does not give loans to any persons who are
unable to read and write, or who receive public
charity. They must furnish proof of good conduct
and industry, and advances are only made in such
oases as look promising. The lenders are subsequently
obliged to prove that the sums advanced have been
employed as indicated. No loan can exceed 100
Gonna, and must be repaid in small weekly instal-
ments after the expiration of eleven weeks; nor can
a second loan be granted until the Snit has been
repaid. The services of the directors and all others
at the bank are gratuitous.
