ADELAIDE.

The advioes from Adelaide are to April 26. Par-
liament was;opened on that day. One of the chief
measures proposed is a bill to amend the Constitu-
tion Act, so as to give additional vote to property.
Amongst many other local measures, there will be
proposed an iutercolonial tariff in respect of articles
produced in the oclonies.
Messrs. Elder, Stirling, and Co.'s commercial
report, dated April 26, says :

Trade remains asdull as ever, the Hester holidays and the
raw, week having moreover rendered the stagnation of
business even more perfect than it was before. The first
rains have fallen, and farmers are beginning to be busy
with their ploughs. Notice has been given by the govern-
ment of their intention to discontinue the branch nail
service to King George's Sound, and tenders have been adver-
tised for, for the conveyance of mails between this place
and Melbourne—en arrangement under which our inward

letters will reach us at least three days later, and our outward
letters will have to be dispatched three days earlier than
has been necessary since the King George's Sound service
ham been in use. The prospectus of the Yudenamutana
Mine has attracted considerable attention. The reported
indications of the mine are highly favourable, and the in•
troductioo of British capital to aid in the development of
our mineral resources is felt to be most desirable, but severe
comments have been made upon the prospectus for the
want of precision displayed in some al the statements
which it contains.

EVACUATION OF CORINTH BY THE
CONFEDERATES.
(Per Anglo-Saxon, via Quebec and Londonderry.)
NEW YORK, MAY 31, MORNING.
The Confederates evacuated Corinth on the
29th instant.

The correspondent of the New York Times con-
siders it possible that the Federal army may go into
trenches before Richmond, and that heavy Parrott
siege guns will be brought from Yorktown.

The Confederates still threaten the Federal
lines at Harper's Ferry.
The latest advices from New Orleans are con-
sidered favourable for the prospect of cotton coming
in. 400 bales have arrived.
General Butler continues to govern New Orleans
with the utmost military rigour. The inhabitants
do not appear to have shown any symptoms of be-
coming reconciled to Federal authority.
Advices from New Orleans confirm the seizure
by General Butler of 100,000 dais. at tire Dutch
consulate.

The foreign consuls unanimously protested.
A correspondence has taken place between Butler
and the British consul relative to the imprisonment
by Butler of British subjects, formerly members
of the British guard in Orleaus,who were accused of
sending arms and accoutrements to Beauregard.
The matter had not been decided, and was still in
abeyance.

Several French men-of-war are now at New York.

The Confederates retreated from Corinth to

It was reported in Corinth (1) yesterday morn-

nearly deserted. No direct advice. have, however,
been received here of the evacuation of Richmond,
and the report is therefore doubtful.
The New York Tribune says, that a circular of the

opened for trade.
The Maryland Episcopal Convention have ex-

THE EXPRESS, WEDNESDAY EVENING, JUNE 11, 1862.

CRYSTAL PALACE COMPANY.

After our report left yesterday,
Mr. GEORG! thought that if proxies were used on this
occasion it would be one of the moat cruel, unprecedented,
and unfair acts he had ever known. He begged to move the
following amendment :—" That the words in the report,
'The prospects of the company are encouraging,' be struck
out, and the words, 'The prospects of the company not
being encouraging, it is expedient that a committee of in-
quiry into the general management of the business of the
company be appointed, and that the meeting be adjourned
Pending their report,' be inserted." (Cheers.)
Mr. H. J. H. Goaz seconded the motion, and the motion
of Mr. Jenkins was withdrawn.

Mr. M 'wow thought the directors ought to respect public
opinion, and be believed that if he had himself been on the
board be should have acted in the same manner. The
question really was whether they would be able to get nine
gentlemen of character and position to sit on the hoard with
Mr. England. (Cheers.)
Mr. CARDIN! supported the motion ; gad Mr. ANDER-
TON the original motion.
The CHAIRMAN, in reply, said that while be acknowledged
the courtesy of Mr. England's speech, it must Le apparent
that the dominant idea in that man's mind was that he alone
had any virtue, and had done all the good which bad been
effected. (Cheers, and" No, no.") No doubt he had done
good service, and he (Mr. Farquhar) had always supported
him. If be would only have taken the advice which he and
other gentlemen had given him all this would have been
spared. Instead of that, he disregarded alike private advice
sad public opinion. (Cheers.) The whole discussion
had satisfied him that the directors had no alter-
native but to rress their motion. Mr. Eng-
land had unneoesserily brought the matter before
the public, and had goose into a court of jasties to do that
which some persona would think was in dealt a hank act.
The real truth was, he was unfortunately carried away by
his own opinion, and had not chosen to act on the advice of
hie beet inside, otherwise all this difficulty might have
been saved.

Yr. England—Yoe only advised ate to raja, and I coo
do that n )w. (Cheers.)

THE PRINCE OF WALES AT MALTA.

The Malta papers of the sth contain long accounts
of the enthusiastic reception given to his Royal
Highness the Prince of Wales by the inhabitants
of that island. At 6 o'clock in the morning the
tower signal flag announced the approach of the
squadron, consisting of the royal yacht Osborne, her
Majesty's ship Doris, and her Majesty's ship Magi-
cienne, and at 7 the Osborne, with his royal high-
ness and party on board, entered the grand harbour,
followed closely by the two other shipe. The
yacht was immediately boarded by Captain Brett,
aide-de-camp to his excellency the governor, and at
11 o'clock his royal highness landed, amid the vivas
and acclamations of the thousands who fringed the
bastions and swarmed along the wharves and on
every point whence a view of the scene could be
obtained. The quiet ship's barge in which the
Prince landed was made to pass through two long
lines of native gondolas, whose "gay flags and
awnings and bright oolours under our southern
sunshine looked novel and imposing, and
reminded one strongly of those bright and
fairy scenes from the history of `fair Venice' so
spiritedly illustrated by the gifted pencils of
Cannaletti and Turner." At the landing-place
the Prince was received by a deputation of
the clergy, the elected members of council, the
leading merchants, and gentry, whose cordial
welcome he very gracefully acknowledged. When
the Prince landed, the governor introduced to him
Canon Amato (as locum knew of the Roman catho-
lic bishop), who was at the right hand side on the
jetty ; and then the elected members of the council
of government, who were on the left. A handsome
bouquet of artificial flowers, made by the nuns of
St. Ursula, was then presented to the Prince by the
children of several respectable inhabitants. He
here entered one of the carriages prepared for him,
accompanied by the governor in plain clothes, and
proceeded along the route sketched out in the
committee's programme, preceded by great crowds
waving flags and cheering vehemently. The
Prince and principal officers of his party were the
guests of Sir Gaspard and Lady de Merchant at the

NEW ZEALAND.

Otago continues to yield large quantities of gdld,
but the severity of the winter has driven back many
of the miners to the fields they left in Victoria.
Others have gone to British Columbia, attracted by
the glowing accounts recently sent from that quar-
ter. Up to the 28th March there had been ex-
ported from Dunedin, mainly to Melbourne, some
357,0910 z. of gold, worth about a million and a
half sterling.
Sir George Grey seems to be gradually winning
his way to the establishment of a line of policy
which will restore the Queen's supremacy in New
Zealand, without recourse to war being necessary.
He appears to have succeeded in creating or bring-
ing out a loyal feeling, and forming a strong
Queen's party amongst the natives, by whom his
measures for the proper administration of justice
seem to be appreciated.
The Southern Cross (Auckland, April 8) says

The stream of immigration which has been steadily
setting towards our shores during the last few years has
more than turned the scale of population in favour of
the Europeans, and in • short time the latter will, in
all probability, al far predominate as to give •
totally new aspect to the relations of the two
races. Decided measures will then be easier. and
• temporising policy will find fewer supporters than
at present. Circamstanoss, however, are already so
" ' •'

shaping themselves, that in all probability the anal
able event will be oonsiderably hastesed, and we may ems
anticipate that in a comparatively abort time New Zealand,
or rather the northern provinces of the colonies, will be
fried from those trammels which have hitherto retarded
her onward program. Foremost amongst the moms
likely to bring about • change in this colony would
be the discovery of a large sad available gold-
field in this grimiest», and we have :every name to believe
that sack a discovery is net far at. Already have the

prospectors at Coromandel reported favourably on that
district, and it is likely that we shall am this winter a large
inAui of diggers both from Otago and the neighbouring
colonies, induced by the private information forwarded to
them by their friends, to try their luck in a country the
climate of which, more than that of any other part of
New Zealand, is calculated to mit men accustomed to
Australia.

THE FEARFULR COLLIETYDFRY A
ILCCIDENT AT
MIMYR .

LOOS OF FIFTY LIVES.
As briefly announced by telegram. in the Ex-
press of yesterday, an awful explosion occurred
on Wednesday, at about 12 o'clock, at the Cethin
Coal Pit, Merthyr-Tydfil, by which fifty lives have
been sacrificed.
Cethin, or Gethin pit, the property of Mr.
Crawshe,y, the extensive iron-master of Cyfartha, is
the largest in the district, employing upwards of
200 men, and is about equidistant between Mer-
thyr-Tydfil and Troedyrhiw.
At noon on Wednesday, the over-looker at the
pit's mouth had notice that something unusual had
occurred in the pit, which was boon followed by
information that an explosion of gas hadtaken place.
]deans were at once adopted to render assistance
and to ascertain the extent of the calamity, which,
unfortunately, has proved to be the most direful
that ever happened in that valley. Up to yester-
day morning 44 persons were brought up dead, and
three alive, but so severely burnt that one has
dace expired, and the other two are not expected
to survive. About half of the number were se-
verely burnt, but the rest had not a hair singed,
haying been suffocated by the choke-damp.
The explosion mist• have been most sudden' for
five men were found as if at their dinner, and one
of the number had actually a piece of bread in his
month when brought up to the upper earth. Some
had evidently received warning of the coming storm
of fire, for one was found with his little dog under
his arm—both dead—and he was no doubt endea-
vouring to escape.
The recognition 'scene was most agonising. The
young wife kneeling in speechless anguish beside
the corpse of him she am fondly loved ; the daughter,
on beholding all that was mortal of a beloved
father, setting up a wail that would arouse the
sympathy of a misanthrope.
At Troedyrhiw was seen, as if in placid sleep, the
body of a young man who wee the sole support of
his aged m3ther. We witnessed her agony, and
heard her mournful cry as she uttered in the
sonorous vernacular of the country, "My son, my
son, would Clod I had died for thee." This poor
bereaved woman was called upon to play the part of
chief moureer—but not for the first time—she had
acted that part before, for she was a widow.
As to the engin of the accident it is as yet a
mystery, none have lived to tell the awful tale and
two more have to be brought cuit who are known to
have perished, and for whom active search is being
made. The explosion took place in the four-foot
seam, and those engaged in the three foot vein
escaped unhurt, that seam branching off in a con-
trary direction to the or.e in which the casualty
occurred. The scene of the catastrophe has been
visited by thousands, and all day yesterday there
were hundreds at the pit's mouth awaiting the re-
covery of the last two bodies. The gloom per-
vading the place is of the deepest ; the countenances
of the nien, women, and even children, wear au
-act of woe.

THE POLICE COURTS.

CLEILICENWELL

Mr. Atryrtnder Wriyll, eliurehera7den of the parish of
Clerkenwell, was summoned by Charles Bolter, the keeper
of the Islington fire engine, end formerly of the fire brigade,
and George Cole, of the Farringdon-street Fire Station, for
not giving them good and sufficient rewards for bringing
two large engines in proper working order to help to
a:Merino!' a fire which happened in the dwelling-house of
Thomas Ditchtield, of No. 62, White Lion-street, Clerk-
enwell._ .

Mr. John Wakaling, solicitor, appealed for the com-
plainants ; and Mr. &mho°, the vestry clerk, attended for
the defendant.

The facts of the cane are simply these :—lt appears that
on the 20th December lute fire happened at Mr. Ditch-
fields, watch and clock maker, of 62, White Lion.street,
Pentonville. The complainant Bolter was the first there
with his engine, and at work 10 minutes or a quarter of an
bow before any other engino arrived. When Cole arrived
with the F n-street engine that also played on the
fire. The nom t Bolter played on the fire for about
two hours, and had to pay the men who worked his engine
with other expenses, and when be want before the board
the defendant only allowed him 205., instead of the full re-
ward allowed by the act of parliament, via, 30e.
Mr. Boohoo cited the cue of " ex parte loader," reported
in the Justice of Me Peaces voL 13,
.page and contended
that the judgment of Justice Coleridge settled the case, for
the churchwarden had awarded a sum which was all that
was intended by the act of parliament..
kr. Wakeling said he was pleased that the case of Loader
had been cited, for there Justice Wightman held that
" how much shall be paid the magistrate must in either
ease fix." _ .

Mi.B'Eyncourt, having taken time to consider the cue,
ddivered his judgment as follows—The case of the
"Queen v. Coma" (13 Queen's Bench, p. 179), appears to
me to decide this case. The decision in that case was that
the magistrate could fix the amount of reward to be paid
to the firemen under the proclaims of the act (14 Ceo. 3,
C. 78), although the churchyard... had refused to origi-
nate the proceeding by proposing as usual a certain amount.
In the present case they have situated a certain amount,
and a question I. raised whether having done so the magis-
trate can increase that amount. It has never been disputed
that he can lessen the amount awarded by the church-
wardens. nor, after the decision in the "Queen v. Combs"
an I see any objection to his iscreadog it. His discretion
seems to me to be absolute to award any sum u a reward
not exceeding the amount pasieribed by the act. In the
present instance, therefore, I shall increase the amount,
and award to the complainant 30s.
Mr. Wattling applied for the costa.
Mr. D'Eyscaut allowed Me. for eats.

THE SUICIDE AY BROMLEY.

Yesterday morning Mr. Payne, the coroner for
the district of Southwark, held an inquest at St. Thomas's
Hospital upon the body of John Scheme, aged 45, who died
on Sunday evening last from wounda which be inflicted on
himself a few days previously under circumstances which
showed the most extraordinary determination to put an end
to has existence. . _ _

WoOentßell, house surgeon, said the deceased wee
heought to the hospital on the morning of the 13th instant
with a wound on the forehead which exposed the boos, sad
his faceand lips were shockingly burnt and bridged. He
found the palate was perforated by a bullet. He wee
totally tunonstions at first, but ander treatment he rallied
sufficiently to answer, principally by signs, the questions
put to him. He said that he was in want of both food
and lodging, as, being a High German, no one would
take him in, and he therefore resolved to destroy himself.
He intimated that he fired first at his forehead, but that
finding that shot insufficient, be placed the pistol in his
month and fired agaie. He added, that the ball entered
and remised in his forehead, but that the one in his mouth
fell out—a singular mistake, as just the contrary really
happened. He died on Sunday from inflammation of tho
brain. On a post 'Noreen examination it was found that the
ball which had entered the palate had lodged at the base
of the brain, producing the inflammation, which caused
death. The frontal bone, though exposed, had not been
penetrated.
Sergeant Grey, R 8, stationed at Bromley, deposed to
finding the pistol, which he produced, close to a pool of
blood, • quarter of • mile from where &oases.* was found. s
John Taylor, a petty officer from Greenwich Hospital,
identified the body of deceased as having been formerly an
inmate of that institution as • pensioner. He was dis-
charged some weeks back for misconduct. He was a man of
violent and determined chemeter. lie had been formerly a
sailor in the Royal Navy.

MOROCCO.

" According to the terms of the treaty of peace
signed between Spain and the Emperor of Morocco,"
says the Momaeher, " the latter engaged to give up
to the Spaniards a certain portion of territory round
the fortress of Melilla. A report is now current
that the Guelayas, the possessors of that land,
absolutely refuse to comply with the Emperor's
orders. As, up to the present time, the represen-
tations of the government envoys have been dis-
regarded, the Emperor, it is believed, is about
to have recourse to force to oblige the Guelayas to
consent to the execution of the treaty. Already
the son of Si-Abd-el-Djebbar, cousin of Mouley-
Abd-es-Selam, chief of the order of the Mouley
Taieb, has arrived at Oudjda. He is the bearer of
letters from the Emperor, addressed to the different
tribes dependent on the Oudjda, ordering them to
hold themselves at the disposal of Mouley-el-
Abbas. The Guelayas, on their side, have appealed
to their allies of the Rif, and prepare for resist-
ance."
