KING'S COLLEGE.

The annual distribution of prizes for general li-
terature and science, the applied sciences, and the mi-
litary departments, took place yesterday afternoon in
the hall of the college, under the _ presidency of his
Greek ~,ne Archbishop of Cantei-ur),.
The Archbishop of CANTERBURY, in opening the
proceedings, said that they were met together to per-
form the agreeable task of rewarding those to whom
reward was due, and in giving those distinctions to
the students he might be permitted to say, that it was
hoped they were only anticipating their course
through lite, and that by their future diligence and by
the right use of those talents which God had bestowed
on them they would meet with future rewards. It
was true that some few discouraging circumstances
might happen in this life which could not be avoided,
but the diligent use of our talents would generally be
sure to bring them to the goal they desired. He
trusted this would be the case with those he saw be-
fore him, and that they would repay those to whom
they owed so much with the only recompense
they wished or looked for—gratitude for the care and
labour they had bestowed on them. It would be use-
less for him to occupy their time any longer in preli-
minary remarks when business was before them, and
therefore he begged to call their attention to that
business.

Dr. JETS, the Principal, said that on a former oc-
casion he had had the pleasure of calling his Grace's
attention to the progress in the medical department,
and soon at another meeting he hoped to speak fa-
vourably of the school, but his present task was to
speak of the college generally, and particularly of the
four departments brought under their notice that day,
and not the least cause far thankfulness were the good
conduct, diligence, and perseverance of the students in
all the departments. With regard to the theological
department, he might state that the word " distribu-
tion" of prizes did not strictly apply to it, for he con-
sidered that it would be wrong to introduce that prin-
ciple of emulation into a department where higher mo-
tives ought, and•he thought were, the incentives. But,
to give them the meed they deserved, he would say
that a more hardworking class of men could not be
found than the 65 men composing the theological class.
As many as 90 out of this department bad passed and
been ordained, and were now good and valuable pastors
in different parishes in the kingdom. The Principal then
spoke favourably of the students in the departments
of general literature, the applied sciences, and the
military departments, and, in conclusion, said he
would not detain them any longer; but he must once
more express a humble hope that, though at a respeot-
ful distance, they were treading in the good and wise
steps of their forefathers, and emulating the great
institutions established by them, and now existing.
Perhaps we accommodated ourselves more to the spi-
rit of the age, he meant to the wise and really useful
spirit of the age, by endeavouring to make progress,
and they were making progress, and adapting their
institutions to the wants of the times, et the same time
acting on the only true principle which lay at the root
of their institution—that teligiege, training was the
only means by •shich auyi -31tAgt‘,1eM5Y1?-ilge,
be properly directed, purified, and senctiiied, and
fitted to the dif&rent circuifiTitances in human life to
which it might be applied. Dr. Jelf then presented
',he successful students in divinity, and the different
professors presented those in the other departments,
with very satisfactory reports of their general progress.
His Grace afterwards distributed the several prizes,
accompanying each with a few words of congratu-
lation.

The Bishop of LICHFIELD, who was received with
much applause, said he could have wished the office
entrusted to him had been comitted to some other,
not that any person would do it more heartily, but
more worthily and more ably, and also because he bad
so often been called on to take this office that he was
arraid his voice by this tune must be heard with
wearines in that room. He had to propose that the
thinks of the meeting, and he was sure they
would
be accorded by acclamation, be given to his Grace
the Archbishop for his kindness in taking the chair
that day, for his continuance of that countenance and
support which was of so much v,:luo to them, and
which enhanced the value of the prizes to those stu-
dents who had the honour of receiving them at his
hand. It would not be proper for biul in his Grace's
presence to say what all knew of him—his character
was too well known to need any eulogy from him,
for all knew that his Grace was daily employed in
giving his support to some good work, some useful
institution. But he might be permitted to add, that
he could not give it more_ worthily or properly
than to this institution. He had had the honour,
with many others, some of whom were now gone,
but others remained, to be concerned in the first
establishment of this institution. They knew that
they were planting a good and strong tree, and
trusted that, under God's blessing, it would prosper ;
i but now it was Known by its fruits. Not only in our
neiversities, but through the world, they would tied
King's College students doing honour to the place
where they were educated. He had ordained seve-
ral from this college, and he could not say more of
them than that they showed themselves worthy in
every respect of the place of their education. It
was particularly interesting to him to see prizes given
to countrymen of other nations than our own. He
alluded to the Russians who had received rewards.

.company of his • wife .and daughter. Ha was
glad to see this,- because .they had the com-

ha WAS sure,,that, in, this room, as well as else-
where, great pleasure had been received by the
writings of that country. The successful can-
didates had had'the honour of receiving prizes from
the Archbishop. Let them ask themselves how it
was that the Archbishop occupied that chair in his
present high position ? He did not attitio to it—and
be hoped his Grace would pardon him for the liberty
he was taking—=through the favour of the great or
through influence in the world; no, he obtaihed that
positioh, rhhich be filled so worthily, by a path whirl

might zn rise to such a position or attain to such
splendid hhheurF i still, many places were open to AL;
and he prlyed God that many of them might take ad-
vantage of the excellent benefits they now pos-
sessed, and which he wus sure they would show in
their future coedoct.
Lord R.SDSTOCK secnnded the vote of thanks; and

The A.rchbisbcp of CANTERIEMELY aekttnwleditd tibe

THE GOLD MINES.
By the Admiral, from Port Philip, 1 accounts,y three
have
vib,eoernkarbeleeeirvreodt to ottte longhe3lt March, being nearly
weeks later than those last published. The mines
at Mount Alexander remained comparatively 'ins-
droll

yield would then be enormous. Meanwhile, how-
ever, t

were apparently at the rate of nearly 12,000 ounces
a week, and as the number of persons employed is
stated at about 10.000, it is evident there must have
been an ample average remuneration for steady
labour. After the excitement from the quantities
obtained when water was accessible, it is •probable
that an ounce or an ounce and a half a week for each
man was regarded with indifference. It is said, how
ever, that apart from the totals which reached town
by the periodical escort, large amounts were retained
by the miner.; in consequence of the price having
fallen to 588., at which they were unwilling to sell.
There were frequent deaths from dysentery, and the
instances of robbery and outrage appear to have
been very frequent. The strongest reproaches were
levelled at the Government for their want of energy
in hesitating to establish an efficient police force at
any cost, the majority of the people being well dis-
posed and ready to aid ell rational efforts for main-
taining order. A meeting had been held at the gold
mines for the purpose of raising subscriptions for the
erection of a church, at which the BiBhop of Mel-
bourne presided, and the amount collected promised
to be more thin sufficient. Prices of provisions both
at Melbourne and Geelong were rapidly rising, A
vessel from London, the Isabella WTatsoc, of 514
tons, had been wrecked on entering the harbour on
the evening of the 21st March. Nine persons who
attempted to escape in the lifeboat were drowned,
from the mast of the ship having fallen upon them,
but the remainder of the passengers and crew, GO in
number, were landed in safety, chiefly through the
courage of some pilots on the shore. The neglect of
the authorities in permitting an insufficiency of lights
on that part of the coast had been strongly censured.
From Sydney the dates are to the middle of March. At
that place the price of gold was Gls. 93., and was ex-
pected toeontinue falling, as the supplies from the mines
were daily increasing. The waters were steadily
subsiding, and at Ophir the yield was better than at
any former period. A vein opened on a spot which
had been carefully drained at the expense of two in-
dividuals was found to give an average of more than
an ounce per foot. In seven days from the day it
was opened 153 ounces had been taken out, the metal
being found in pure lumps weighing from 17 ounces
downwards. From the Turon the accounts were
equally encouraging, but botia here and at Ophir con-
siderable quantities were kept back, owing to the low
price offered by purchasers. It was thought that
several shipments of geld would be made to eastern
markets, with the view of getting a quick and satis-
factory return, more especially as a sum forwarded to
Meedila had realised 3/. 19s. 6d. per ounce. The
rate of exchange was 8 discount. Heavy shipments
to Melbourne had drained the Sidney markets of
articles of consumption, end prices were very high ;
but,prodiaat of ()Vats kinds was greatly affected by

RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE.
NORFOLK RAILWAY.

The adjourned special meeting of this company was
hcld, pro forma, on Monday, at t lie office, Guildhell•build-
ings, to Ti cert.° a report fruna the committee recently ap-
pointed on financial matten, Mr. Till in the chair.
In reply to questions,. . .

The CHAIREIAN stated that in consequence of negotia-
tions which were now going on with influential parties
who were connected with some eminent bauking•houses
in the City respecting the mode of raising the new stock,
which was intended to take the place of the present de-
benture debt, it was proposed to adjourn the meeting tg
a future day. The net revenue of the company iimeeeted
to 60,0001. a year, and the interest on the bond debt to
23,000/., leaving a large margin of 37,000/. a year • it
was therefore considered that the security was ample to
enable them to raise money on as good terms as any
other company. The interest on the debt at present
amounted to about 5 per cent. per annum, and it was
thought probable from the state of the money-market
that the new stock could be raised on terms which would
enable them to save from 1 to per cent,, or about
5,0001. a year. Tois sum would be equivalent to los.
per cent. on the ordinary capital of the company, and
would of course improve their position. He concluded
by moving a resolution to the effect that the meeting be
adjourned to a future day, of which due notice would be
given.
The motion was eArrieJ, and the meeting

Patently the
last census the number of occupied houses in the metro-
polis was 307,722, and that to supply the population
which in fifty years' time it is likely may be resident
here, will require an addition of 435,000.' more than
double the present number; and that while the PeqPie
within the last ten years. have increased 21 per cent.
their dwellings have only Increased 17 per cent. Now
if such statements have any value, or bear any cpproxi-
mation to truth, they avail before all things to prove the
imperative necessity of increasing vigilance on the part
of the .public, and especially all in authority, to every
proposed plan of improvement calculated to affect per-
manently tie.) general coLieelaience and welfare of the in-
habitants of this great city Copenhagen-Gelds, the
site chosen for the
„ new market, will soon be required
for the erection of private ci
vrt flings, and, in a very few
years, the neighbourhood will become as thickly peopled
as. that of the present Smithfield itself, and thus pro-
vision is made beforehand for the reiteration of all the
old objections to the market being held in the metropolis
at all, which it has cost the press end the public so mach
labour and so many years of agitation to get rid of. If
it is now too late to prevent this, the public will at least
do well to scan with the closest scrutiny ail the amine-
ments connected with the carrying the scheme into effect.
What is the use of such bodies as the Board of Health,
the Sanitary Association, and the Commissioners for
Metropolitan Improvements, if they do not interfere to
point out, if needs be, to the Government, the objections
i
which in all such cases it s their peculiar provinoe to
inquire into, and, if possible, prevent?—Correspondent

QUEEN ADELAIDE NAVAL FUND.
yesterday atternoon a grand fancy bazaar was held
at the Royal Hospital, Greenwich, in aid of the funds
of this most deserving institution, established for the re-
lict' of the orphan daughters of officers of the Royal
Navy and Marines. The fancy fair was held in the
library of the hospital, which was very tastefully deco-
rated for the occasion with a variety of flags, banners,
union jacks, &c. Tao large ruom was entirely occupied
by the stalls, which were appropriately laid out, and
exhibited a plentiful supply of elaborate designs in
needlework, wax flowers, crochet, knitting, &c. The
Marchioness of Hastings, Viecoantess Vatentia, Lady
Caroline Legge, Lady Capel, and many other members
of the beau monde, presided at the galls, and a sharp
rivalry seemed. co exist as to the disrosal of the various
ornaments, which found a rapid sale at the usual exor-
bitant prices cheerfully suomittcd to by the fashionable
philanthropist on such occasions. The weather being
flue and clear, a very numerous company of ladiei and
gentlemen_ attended, and amused themselves by prome-
nading iu the quadrangle of the hospital and listening to
the mum of ttie band of the Royal Marines. By the
