troupe, with some officers of distinctios, having been
led into as ambuscade, were all captured. The foreign
trade has been in some degree injured, Chinese not
liking to risk the transit of goods to the interior.
Such are the diversified opinions and rumours which
find currency in the local journals, but I have only to
repeat what my previous communications have hinted,
that the levellers are uniting their strength to carry
out and carry through the aspire the principle. of the
republigue rouge' and moreover that each day is bring-

. A fearful tragedy has been perpetrated on board
the French ship Albert, Captain Pain, which left
China for Pero a month ago, with a cargo consisting
chiefly of silks and 180 coolies. On the 27th inst.
the vessel returned to this harbour. On Sept. 7, is
lat. 30 N. and loog. 180 E., Captain Pain, his chief
sad third mate, the cook, and supercargo (Mr. Jobs
Lisa), were murdered by the coolie., who rose
se maim, and were stopped in their serial
tragedy only by the occurrence of • squall,
which taught them the necessity of
some of the crew for navigating tral=
The crew and third mate (who had sought TAge is
the rigging), as also the brother of the or=
were spared on the condition of taking
back to China. On arrival maids this pert, 130 of
the coolies—all the baste mold carry—Newel to the
shore, leaving 40 or 80 of tits most helpless es board.
These latter have been secured by the paw and
will in all probability be put upon their trial.
It is said the cause of the outage was
the ill-treatment of the captain, who to pre-
serve cleanliness amongst the coolies, need to have
them severely chastised, but whether unnecessarily
so cannot be known until the whole of the evidence is
beim the public.
The ship Itustorejee Cowasjee, which left Singe-
pee July 28th for this port, is believed to have
Mothered In the China sea. This vessel bad on baud
Mug passengers and 1,200 chests of opium (valued
at mere than six hundred demand dollars), besides
Mbar goods. She is supposed to have been over-
lain the typhoon of July 31st, and to have gone
does. Of the opium on board, 250 chests belonged
to Messrs. Jardine, Mathison and Co.

NEW ZEALAND.

By accounts redelTed (rid iTniaii7re) from the new I
settlement, Port Cooper, Canterbury, to the middle
of August, it is gratifying to learn that all was pros-
pering most favourably. l'olitioal and domestic news
there was none, save that feelings of happiness and
the enjoyment of health were generally diffused
amongst the settlers. Port Nicholson journals to the
end of July are barren of anything of general in-
terest. Emigration to California was still pursued
to a large extent, particular] y from Auckland.
The Otago News had been discontinued in consequence
of the paucity of subscribers; the 'rapider before
closing his career was presented by his supporters
will a pores containing eighty sovereigns. The In-
testate Same Fend of the Wellington Supreme Court
had been embezzled to a greet extent, but by whom
is not stated. Great improvement; were being made
to the port at Nelson, by blasting the mats which
rendered the entrance of the harbour dangerous and
difficult. H.H.S. Meander had proczeded from
Auckland to Toogataboo and the South Sea Islands.
VAN DIEMEN'S LAND.
A late number of the Hobart Town deloartieer re-
ports the arrival of the first cargo of Schouten blond
coal, which is said to be little inferior in quality to
that of Sydney. A warrant for enrolling Ave hun-
dred pensioners had been received by the to-
Torpor. A correspondent of the Colosial Times
says t " The private estate of the late manager
of the Detract Bank, Capt. Swanston, is estimated to
realize about ten shillings in the pound. Rim debt
to the Derwent Bank is 53,0001., after giving credit
for all which is expected to be realised from other
parties, whose names are upon several of the obliga-
tions held ty the bank. Even supposing Captain
Sumatra's debt to the bank is ultimately reduced by
the payment of third parties to the sum of 53,0001.,
still this was a most unprincipled amount of debt to
be incurred by the managing director to the bank, out
of a capital of 77,0001. As the debt at present studs
at 66,000 L, the whole capital within 12,0001. has
been absorbed in carrying out the private speculations
of the manager."
PORT PRIMP.

Melbourne journals to the end of July supply a
few items of intelligence. The Argus congratulates
the colonists on an increase in the exports of wool,
which amounted in 1849 to 61,600 to 81,600 already
shipped this year; the total value of the exports
had also greatly increased on the previous year.
A Mr. Mollison bad proposed the establishment
of a company for the purchase of merino
rams, in order that there may be a thorough
change of blood, in the hope of diminishing the
chances of catarrh. The office of Superintendent of
Bridges, at Melbourne, was recently (destroyed by
fire under circumstances that leave little doubt it was
wilfully set fire to; a great many valuable plans and
papers were destroyed. Arrangements were in pro-
gress for the publication of an illustrated msgaaine.
The ship Culloden arrived at Melbourne, July 6, with
the first batch of needlewomeo, forwarded by public
subscription, which was started by the Hon.
Sidney Herbert. The Herald notices the uniform
good conduct of these emigrants as deserving the
highest encomium ; there was but little illness, and
neither a birth nor a death occurred on board during
the voyage. Specimens tf colonial glue, said to be of
a very superior quality, have been manufactured by
Messrs. Denny. end Co., of Geelong. Building so-
cieties appear to be highly popular at Port Phillip;
there are lose at Melbourne, three at Geelong, and
one at Portland.

SOUTH AUSTRALIA.
Adelaide papers to the beginning of August are to
band, and are chiefly filled with articles oft local na-
tare. The legislative council had voted the suet of
8001. for barrack expenses for the miming year. The
exports for &s tint quarter of 1850 amounted in nine
to 243,0001.
