The later advices from Australia by the Argo contain
little of commercial importance. The previous dates
were to the 16th of Decemberfrom Melbourne, and these
are to the 7th of January. The occurrence of Christ-
mas had only partially interfered with the production
of the mines, and the escorts for the week just ended
had brought down 23,939 ounces. The import markets
remained without any prospect of early revival, the re-
cent riots at the gold fields and the high prices of bread-
stuff+, owing to the shortness of the colonial supply, hav-
ing both contributed to increase the existing heaviness.
Several vessels were to leave Melbourne for England
during the month, including the Statesman on the Bth,
and the Anglesey on the 25th of January. From New
South Wales the commercial report is of a similar cha-
racter. These had been a remarkable absence of business
for several weeks, and sales could be forced only at a heavy
sacrifice. The Select Committee on Emigration had
recommanded a further sum of 100,0001. to be sent to
England, and in the Legislative Council a bill had passed
its second reading to take the control of railways out of
private hands, in order that they might be carried out
by the Government, compensation at any rate below 7
per cent, premium being authorised to bo given to the
subscribers to the Sydney Railway Company. The
Governor, Sir C. Fitzroy, had announced his recall,
and bad delivered his farewell address. The drought
experienced throughout the colony had been greater than
at any period for 15 years. Among the projected de-
partures from Sydney were the Vimeira, on the 10th cf
January, the Lady Anne and Kate on the 15th and the
Elleaborough on the 25th. ,
