THE AUSTRALIAN MAIL.

We have received letters and papers from the
Australian colonies to the dates of Melbourne, Jan.
16, Sydney, Jan. 9.
The Melbourne Argus of Jan. 16 reports that the
new year has commenced well Is regards the pros-
pects of the gold fields. Quarts mining is now the
favourite pursuit, large and powerful machines being
erected by miners, and the resources appearing to
be inexhaustible. The gold returns of the last year,
however, are below that of 1856. In that year the
quantities received by escort amounted to 2,694,503
ounces, and the shipments to 3,007,281 ounces. In
1857 the total escorts were 2,478,826 mums, and the
shipments, 2,757,0470un0e5. At the present time also
the escorts are much below the average ; the returns
for thirteen weeks showing a falling off of 120,000
ounces. Among the temporary causes for this
decrease, the Melbendrow Argus mentions the recent
reductions in buying priors as among the most
prominent.
The following mode had sailed with the parcels
of gold attached to their masse respectively :

labourers; useful young men, and light-weight lads; and w
anticipate a heavy demand, within the next month, for foo.

om that in it the Gospel was preached to the poor. There

Others we cannot hinder from coming hero, but it is you that
we bed chiefly in our eyes when this service was

an poor, it may be meanly clad, only makes
you the more welcome to us. Tell your friends and
neighbours the same; bring them with you here. Bring
not those that are church-goers already, for there Is little
gain in this, but bring, if you can, the ignorant, the caroler,
and the profane. And to you who are the richer members
of this congregation, I would say, too, justify your presence

The rev. gentleman then pronounced the benediction, and

most orderly manner.
As regards the sermon It must be added that, though the

marked resemblance to that of the Bishop of Oxford—mani-

rally of inadequate strength for such a task, the voice of the
preacher was pitched in too low • key for the sounds to
penetrate so veal • space.
There was one drawback which is perhaps inseparable tram
an evening service in the naveof the abbey, namely, a very in-
convenient degree of cold, but there were occasional draughts

his established a precedent which "all maritime
Powers" must take note of, to the effect that
any French ship terniahed with the papers men-
tioned in the French law of 1862, having on board
a delegate of the French government, and managed
according to the regulations in this behalf made and
provided, must never, whether deliberately or by
mistake,be seised, confiscated, or impeded in its ope-
rations. Such is the maritime law which France

This is the man who is sent to Western Australia in the
face of the moat distinct understanding that the best and
moat orderly prisoners are to be selected for transportation to
this colony. In addition to this he possesses far more than
average ability, has considerable command of apt, forcible
language, and great fluency of speech. He has been noted
in the English prisons for, and has distinguished himself on
board the Nile by, his daring infidelity, and the bold, blas-
phemous expressions which he makes use of. In fact,
if we could imagine any person indulging a wish
to do the greatest amount of injury possible to a
ship's company and the inhabitants of a colony,
no more direct method could have been taken to carry
this wish than to turn loose amongst them such • fiend-
like criminal as this. He had scarcely embarked in the ship
before he commenced to prepare for further violence, by
picking the pocket of the warder, who brought him off, of
his life-preserver. (Thin is quite • different affair from that
of the life-preserver which was taken from • prisoner coming

THE PRISONERS IN NAPLES.

On ox ova OWN CO]

SALERNO, MARCH U.

Poor Park, I am sorry to sty, was too unwell
to make his appearance in court on Monday
last. He feels very much his comparative solitude,
for Watt had been his companion during many
months in prison, and they had sympathised with
and supported each other in misfortune. Nor is it
that Park only feels the lees of a companion and a
countryman, but he asks what difference is there
between the two cases—he is as innocent as Watt,
and why should he, therefore, be still detained in a
close prison, or any prison at all ? The same question
might, indeed, be asked by many poor Neapolitans
in hospital, and by several madmen, but that they
are only Neapolitans, and do not come within the
ordinary limits of humane consideration. It is the
opinion of some here that Park, too, will be liberated;
but whatever is done it is to be hoped that nothing will
be asked or accepted as a favour; that the innocence
of our countrymen will be stoutly maintained ; and
that this government will be held responsible, and
made responsible, for the injuries which they have in-
flicted on two British subjects. Mr. Lyons and Kr.
Acting-Consul Barber were both here on Monday, and
the latter remained over the Tuesday. Mr. Roskilly
was sent for from Naples to visit Park. You know
that since his imprisonment he has been subject to
tits, and appearances seemed to indicate the approach
of another. There were in all 20 prisoners sick in
hospital, who could not appear in court ; one was
taken ill with fever and removed during the trial.
It might have been advantageous to them if others
had been removed also, for one of the gaolers was
heard to tell another that a quantity of blood was
lying in one of the rooms, which had probably been
thrown up by one of those whom they had compelled
to come down. In answer to which his superior
observed that ft was all a sham. I take for granted
that the Attorney-General was under the aims im-

DAZING HIGHWAY ROBBERY.

iamos William, aged 28, painter, was charged with high-
way robbery with violence.
It appeared that Mr. Smith, a colliery proprietor, arrived
In Cardiff by an evening train of the Trff Vale Railway 0.11
the 6th of Kay, 1867; he prooesded to the South Wales
Railway Station shortly after 9 o'clock to inquire the Ow of
arrival of a train by which he expected a Mend. The sta-
tion Is approached by a road little more than 100 yards in
length leading out of one of the principal thoroughitras In
the town in which the central police-station is situate. Mr.
Smith, finding that he was too early, turned towards St.
Mary-street, when he met two men, one of whom asked him
ff the train wee due. He replied that it would not be in for
20 minutes. At the tame moment he received a blow from
some instrument, which stunned him and completely de-
stroyed hiseye. On recovering his mimes he found
that he had been robbed of 17s. 6d., and that his gold watch
VW hanging out of Ma pocket by a guard chain which was
vary strong. The prisoner was Identified as well by a rail-
way porter who had seen the prisoner near the station about
the time in company with Henry Davies who was convieted
at the winter ensues, and against whom sentence of death
had been recorded. The police knew that the prisoner was
in town on the day of the robbery, and had been on the look-
out for him until the 6th March last, when he wee captured
by Sergeant Shepherd.
The jury returned a verdict of Guilty, and a previous con-
viction was proved.
Sentenced to penal servitude for 8 years.

MINISTERIAL CRISIS IN DENMARK.

(710 X 01:11. OWN

COPENHAGEN, iVLY 8.

Owing to differenoes in the cabinet as to re-
organising the competency of the German Dist on
the question of the Duchies, the Finance Minister
Andres tendered his resignation to-day, after a
stormy debate in the Privy Council.
The President Half will probably take the Foreign-
office, and Bishop Mound will enter the cabinet.

VISIT TO CHERBOURO.

The visit to Cherbourg of Qoeen Victoria inspires
the Dacia with the following reflections:

The news of the approaching visit of the Queen of
Ermined to Cherbourg bad circulated for some days peat in
Paris ; it is now 000drowd, and we need not say that in oar
opinion it is a most favourable piers of intelligence, linos it
will completely dissipate the mistrust created for some time
past by the !ravage of certain journals. This unreasonable
ethernet had unhappily crossed our frontiers, and it was by
no means rare to hear our neighbours speak it a rupture
with Femme ea a depkwable event, near at band. More
than ems enlightened Englishmen, from continually observ-
ing the Insinuations thrown out by certain journals that
Front* supports Impatiently the English alliance,
and that it requires all the erninees of govern-
ment to maintain that albino", had ended by be-
lieving this statement without understanding it.
Certainly, if the honour or the Womb of France were
seriously menaced, she would be as ready to defend them
against England is against any other power, while the re.
collection of the put terrible struggles of the two countries
would doubtless inspire Francs with extraordinary energy.
But an immense difference exists between this very natural
and legitimate sentiment, and the insane desire of a rupture
without a rasa, or this blind and unjust hatred which cer-
tain journals ere often pleated to 'Wanes to the French na-
tion. Their language Is an Insult to the nation. We admit
that there exist amongst us individuals who believe that their
birth or aristocratic pretensions command them to feel the
disasters of Crecy, Potable, and Agineor-t mows
actively than the remainder of the nation, and
to exhibit a great desire to avenge them ; we
also possess zealous catholic,' who consider a war with pro-
testant England es the fiesta duties. But the nation, which
must be consulted on a point of such importance, does not in
the least share these eccentric opinions, and it would require
better reasons in order to be convinced that a rupture with
England would be otherwise than a fault and a calamity.

The Gazette de France has the following on the
same subject :

Should this vWt take place, it will excite a deep essestion
la Tonnes and Europe; for the meows of Queers Victoria
an ear territory, after the dissentious produced by the dis-
loyal aoudad of our ally, would have as immune sigailins-
don. It would be considered as the pledge of a new
founded either on an oblivion of the past or as a drat=
by Ragland of a policy hostile to the development of our
commaree and political +ntluence,

ITALY.

THE TWO SICILIES.
(raos OUR OWN CONAROPONDIKT4
NAPLES, Aram 27.
For some time past I have abstained from saying
anything of the prisoners of Montesarohio ; not that
their case excited less sympathy than before, but
that all allusion to it seemed to be as use.sis as
striking against a wall. At Easter, as I mentioned,
some criminals were released, and a few political
suspects, who had never been brought to trial. But
no miracle, in this miracle-loving country, either
opened or will open the prison doors of Poerio and
his companions. A pamphlet, called " Carlo Poerio
and the Neapolitan Police," published by Hatchard,
has found its way into Naples. It has increased the
interest felt in his favour, and it will not be out of
time or place to give the following most recent de-
tails regarding him.
Easter was celebrated in Montesarchio by affixing
two new sets of iron bars. Soon after Poerio was
attacked by a fever, which for some days placed his
life in peril, and the only wonder is, that a consti-
tution originally frail has for now nine years been
able to resist the continued sufferings to which he
has been subjected. He is now gradually getting
better, though still weak. From informatioa which
cannot be doubted I that, weak and ill as he
was, Baron Carlo Poerio, formerly one of the minis-
ters of his Majesty of the Two Sicilia, still con-
tinued to wear the heavy chain which is rivetted
round his foot, and that his sufferings were in no
slight degree aggravated by this fact, as every
change from side to side involved the turning of
his chain. lam not stating the cause of an
ordinary criminal, but of one whose life has been
dedicated to his country, and whose defence
is unanswerably pleaded in his own words in the
pamphlet to which I have referred. Let every
Eogliahman who is sceptical of statements regarding
the government of Naples read that pamphlet. Still,
in the face of undeniable facts, there are numbers
who, with all the perseverance and all the intelli-
gence of a magpie, continue to repeat that the Nea-
politans are not prepared for anything better. This
is, in het, one of the most cunning devices for sup-
pressing the triumph of freedom. They shut
out the light, and cry how dark it is; they
punish or imprison men who would be an
honour to any country, and then say there
are none to guide you in a new path ; nay
more, by a system of moral torture, of which
the world has scarcely ever heard: the like, they
almost de-humanise human beings, and then ask
free and happy countries like England to save them
from their fury. By:altering her laws to effect such
an object England would be making herself au ac-
complice iu the crimes of despots.
