ABRIDGED PROSPECTUS.
The Gold Fields of Otago, or.ened in 1861, gave New Zea-
land an impulse. which bids fair to place it amongst the fore-
most of the British Colonies.
For the year 1855. the total Exports and Imports
of New Zealand were....
For the year 186)
2.137.286
For the year 1861
For the three quarters ending 30th Sept., 1862
The value of GOLD exported from 0 rAGO alone was—
In 1861 £72',318
In 1862 1,540,708
The latest accounts. show that the same ratio of increase is
being maintained. Ihe following is an extract from the
Melbourne correspondent of " The Times," published in
that piper on the 13th April. 1863 :—The weekly pro +notion
(of Gold) in the province of Otago ranges from 12,000 to 15,000
ounces, and new fields are opening out in all directions."
The rapid increase in the export of WOOL from NEW
ZEAL AND is remarkable :

In 1855, it was 1,447,200 lbs.
In 1858, „
In 1861, „
In 1862, ~

Not withstanding thesefacts there's but one Bank especially
est blished for New Zealand (having i s Head Office at Auck-
land), with a pad up capital of £250,000; and the only other
banking facilities are derived from mere Branches and Agen-
&es of Institutions whose chief business is in Australia, where
their capital is mostly em

The Bank of Nei.' Zealand (established in 1861) declared, in
the first year .f its existence a dividend at the rate of 8 per
cent. ; but its actual net profit for the year way much larger.

THE GALWAY CONTRACT,

The Earl of lIARDWICKE asked her Majes'y's Go-
vernuacnt whetbcr the contract for the conveyance of her
Majesty's mails between Galway and America was to be
simply a resump ion of the old contract, or whether it was
intended to introduce any and what modification therein;
and also whether the rate of speed originally stipulated was
sti,l to be exacted, and also whether a copy of the contract
would be laid upon the table of the House of Commons
before the introduction of the estimates for the mail packet
service.

Lord STANLEY of ALDERLEY said he was in the
same condition as he was before, as he had not received any
official intelligence relative to engaging the ships. He
might, however, say that the same requirements as before
relative to the speed and ships to perform the service would
be required, and a copy of the contract would be laid on the
table of the house before the estimates were taken.
THE METROPOLITAN RAILWAY.

Earl GRANVILLE referred to the following motion
which stood upon the paper in the name of Lord Strath-
eden, namely :—" To move a humble address to her Ma-
jeo.ty praying her Majesty to appoint a commission
toinquire whether it was desirable to provide
withia the limits of the metropolis any additional
termini or extension of railways already existing, or to pro-
-vide any connection or communication between such rail.
ways; also, whether it was desirable to allow any additional
railways to b.; made within such limits, and if so, in what
manner, and with what restrictions, the several works
should hl carried out. The noble earl said it would be
very inconvenient to move for the appointment of a com-
mission whilst there was a committee sitting, to whi,h the
subject might be referred.

Lord STRAT lIEDEN thought that good might have
resulted from his motion, but he should not act is opposi-
tion to the opinion of the noble earl.

The Marquis of CLANRICARDE said complications
wore arising in Dublin similar to that in London, and he
thought the expression of their lordships' opinion should
apply to Dublin also.

Lord RE DESDALE said he was quite aware of the state
of Dublin, in consequence of the Dublin and Kingston
and other railways, and was of opinion that some interfer-
ence was required.

The motion was then withdrawn, and
Their lordships adjourned.

CRIMINAL LUNATICS.

Gen. BUCKLEY asked the Secretary of State for the
Home Department whether the building intended for
criminal lunatics was ready; and whether those criminal
lunatics now confined at the private asylum at Fibherton,
near Salisbury, amounting to the number of 284, were
likely shortly to be removed to the new asylum ?
Sir G. GREY replied that he was informed that a large
portion of the new building was ready, and 100 criminal
lunatics would shortly be received. He could not say when
it would be ready for the reception of a larger number.
The first inmates would consist of persons from Fisherton.

trumpets) to all parts of the then vast empire of
Napoleon the Great, virtually, in 1808, the Lord
Paramount of Continental Europe.

EXTRAORDINARY CONDUCT OF THE POLICE. Edward
Salisbury, a poor man, was charged with creating an ob-
struction by selling things in the street.

Police-constable William Frank, 237 B, said on Saturday
night, at half-past eight, .1 was on duty in Grosvenor-row,
Pimlico, when I saw the defendant there with a barrow
loaded with greens,
walking up and down in the carriage..
way. A man with a horse mid cart wanted to come out of
George-street, and the defendant was blocking the way, and
refused to go until he had tit rved his customers. He was
serving a customer, and kept the man with the cart until
he had finished.

Mr. Selfe—Can you tell me whether there is any pre-
scriptive right for people to stand and block up the thorough-
fare in Stratton-ground, Westminster ?
Policeman—l don't know, your worship.
Mr. Selfe—l should like to know, for I can't see how
one with any show of decency can fine men with barrows
for being in Grosvenor-row, while others are allowed with
impunity in Stratton-ground. If the public convenience
is to be at all considered, I cannot see a greater nuisance
4 han that in Stratton-ground.
Policeman—We have no orders to interfere with it.

Mr. Selfe—lt is not only people with barrows
or stalls who obstruct the street, but the shopkeepers them-
selves take the road facing these houses. I should like to
have some light thrown upon the matter. I don't want a
crusade against these poor people, but there ought to be a
uniform rule. It seems unjust that these stands should be
permitted in one part of the district and disallowed in an-
other. Defendant, you must walk on when told. You are
discharged.

BOROUGH HOP.

We have to report a steely demand for all good condi-
tioned samples of home-grown hops, and late rates are well
supported. Inferior qualities move off slowly, but at full
prices. Foreign hops, particularly those of good colour,
command a fair sale, and the quotations rule firm. Last
week's import amounted to 88 pockets and 391 bales from
Dunkirk, 60 bales from Bremeu, 374 pockets from Guern-

ROYAL FREE HOSPITAL, Gray's-inn-road,
in the immediate vicinity of the Great Northern Rail-
way Terminus, at King's-cross.

Patron—The QUEEN.
President—The Duke of BUCCLEUCH, K.G.
Treasurer—Edward Masterman, Esq.

This was the first hospital to introduce the principle of free
and instant admission to the destitute sick, without the for-
mality of governors' letters. It is entirely devoted to desti-
tution in its most pitiable form—viz., that which is accom-
panied by sickness and disease, and is now of sufficient
magnitude that, with adequate support, it may be rendered
capable of admitting Into its wards a very large proportion of
the casual sick of this great metropolis. It requires but the
funds in order to have 500 beds available for the reception of
these the most wretched of our fellow-creatures. Moreover,
it gratuitously affords medical advice and medicine to more,
on the average, than 3,000 out-patients a week.

The Weekly Board feel it their imperative duty to make an
EARNEST APPEAL to the public for continued support,
to enable them to admit and relieve the distressing cases that
daily present themselves.

Mas,erman, Esq., Nicholas-lane; also by Messrs. Coutts and

ITALY.

The Italian Senate, in its sitting of the 15th,
commenced the debate on a bill concerning the old
officers of the late army of the Bourbons:—
By the Neapolitan law the pensions to be granted
to officers were only calculated according to the pay
enjoyed by an officer for a period of at least two
years ; but under the Bourbons the stringency of
this law was generally relaxed by Royal favour.
When the Neapolitan army was incorporated with
that of Italy, there were many old officers unfit for
service, and it was found necessary to pension them
off, and the law as it stood was rigorously observed
in their case. Gen. La Marmora's representations
OD the subject had induced the Minister of War to
bring in the present bill with a view to grar t such
officers as had not enjoyed their higher pay for
the two years required an increase of pension equal
to what they would have been entitled to in the
contrary case. The bill had been passed by the
Chamber of Deputies, and was now before the
Senate, whose commission proposed the rejection of
the bill on the ground of economy.

Gen. De Sonnaz and other eminent military men
supported the bill, but after an animated debate the
first article was rejected, upon which the Minister
withdrew the measure.

A Turin letter of the 15th says:—
" When about a month ago I spoke of the projects
which the Mazzinian party had in contemplation,
the same doubts might have been entertained of the
truth of the fact, but at present the Turin journals
speak of little else. This publicity is the work of the
Government itself. The Minister of the Interior
having been put on the trace of Mazzird's projects, and
being in possession of his correspondence, thought
that the best means of defeating his senseless pro-
jects was to denounce them to public opinion. There
had been collected in the canton of Ticino, arms,
ammunition, and a nucleus of determined men.
The object was to bring on a war with Austria, by

M. Peruzzi made a very energetic speech in the
Chamber on the subject, taking as his text some
remarks of M. Lezzero. He gave it to be under-
stood that the Government would not allow mal-
contents to place the destinies of Italy in danger.
The words of the Minister have tranquillised the
public mind, and the revolutionary attempt may be
considered as defeated. The King is still at
Florence, where' his presence produces the most
favourable effect. Baron Ricasoli, who was at his
chateau of Brolio, hastened to pay his respects to
his Majesty. It was the first time that he had
seen the King since la?. quitted the Ministry, and
the interview was long and friendly. The Presi-
dent of the Council, who had accompanied his Ma-
jesty to Florence, has returned to Turin."

HER MAJESTY'S STAGHOUNDS.

This gallant pack met for the last time this season
nt Knaphill on Friday last, a wild forest country,
varied by enclosures of grass land, which was in
first-rate order for galloping over. The first part of
the run was over the forest, passing I3isley into
the Chobham meadows, then to Windleshain, and
through Bi.:gshot Park towards Swinley, then to
Southill Park and Bracknell, when the deer St.
George was taken at the Station in an hour and a
quarter, under a burning sun. Thus ended a first-
rate season, and, what is remarkable, missing only
one day from frost, On Tuesday last the meet was
assembled, and enjoyed
aaway over theatvßerryay;wreitctky :
run a velvet fieldho hour,
going
Bray drainage to Heywood Park, and to the right,
crossing the end of the thicket at a merry pace, and
on to Cookham Dean, towards Marlow, and was
taken between there and Cookhain. The heat was
great, and a second deer was not required.
Mr. Grath's foxhounds closed their season also on
Friday, when the meet was at Virginia Water, and
drew unsuccessfully the Belvidere Grounds, Round
Copse, and Windsor Forest, but succeeded in finding
in the grounds of Sir John Walsh, and, after a sharp
and hot run, killed at Swinley, thus finishing a
capital season.

THE LATE CARDINAL BARB ERIN 1.--Tl,lB Cardinal,
who was created by
Pope Leo XII
noble, was one of the
oble princes of the Church. He had resigned his share
in the family patrimony to his brother, Prince Barberini,
on condition of being maintained for his life with the deco •
.
rum due to his rank. But he reserved to himself his piattt
as cardinal of 4,000
scudi a year, his prelatura of 12,000
scudi, his deanery of St, John Lateran of about 2,000 scudi,
his prefecture of the Congregation of Briefs, worth about
3,000 scudi, at. d other sources of ecclesiastical income,
amounting altogether to about 22,000 scudi a year, all of
which be is now said to have been in the habit of giving
in alms to poor but deserving persons, his own expenses
being defrayed,
i 8 mentioned above, by his brother. His
private memoranda, and the fact of his having left no per.
sonal property whatever, lead to the conviction that for many
(years his income wad entirely devoted to charitable purposes,

A BOARD OF AUDIT FOR INDIAN RAILWAYS..--
We understand that the Indian Government are
about to establish a Board of Audit for the examination of
Indian railway accounts, to ensure that the charges against
revenue shall be fairly made. The Indian Government
have, of course, a direct pecuniary interest in seeing that
all charges are properly apportioned ; and it is to be hoped
that Indian railway accounts will be made out in such a
clear and comprehensive manner as to contrast favourably
with those of companies at home.—Money MAN,

MARK-LANE.

The leading country markets, held on Saturday, were
quiet for wheat, yet very little change took place in the rates
current in the previous week. All descriptions of spring
c,rn moved off slowly at late quotations, In fluur a
limited business was transacted on former terms.
On the continent the corn trade is devoid of animation,
and the business doing for export is very moderate. Ad-
vices from New York stated that the trade, both for wheat
and flour, was dull, at drooping prices.

Last week's arrival of English grain was very moderate.
The import from abroad amounted to 22,825 quarters of
wheat, 10,281 barley, 65,544 oats, 315 beans, 1,533 peas,
130 tears, 761 linseed. 12,050 rape and oilseed, 985 maize,
10 sundry seeds, 136 sacks and 11,253 barrels of flour.
Fresh up to this morning's market the arrivals of wheat
from Essex and Kent were very moderate. A fair pro-
portion came to hand in good saleable condition, and at the
close of the market this had mostly been disposed of, at
prices equal to those current last week. Inferior parcels,
however, met a dull inquiry, yet no quotable change took
place in their value, compared with Monday last.
With foreign wheat the market was well supplied.
Dantzic and the best American produce changed hands
slowly, on former terms; otherwise the trade was very in-
active, but without leading to any alteration in the cur •
rency of this day se'Lnight.
In floating cargoes of wheat and other grain sales pro-
gressed slowly, at previous quotations.
The supply of English barley was very small; but there
was a moderate show of foreign parcels on the stands.
The trade was in an inactive state ; nevertheless, prices were
fairly supported.
In the demand for malt there was no animation. The
quotations, however, ruled stationary.
With English, Scotch, and Irish oats the market was
scantily supplied. The supply of foreign descriptions on
offer, however, was very large. Good and fine qualities
met a fair sale, and prices were steadily maintained. Low-
conditioned parcels sold heavily, and, in some instances,
the quotations ruled the turn in favour of buyers.
The supply of beans was less extensive, but there was no
improvement in the demand, and prices were unaltered
from Monday last.

Peas—the supply of which was small—moved off slowly
atlate rates.

The supply of barrel flour was moderately large, and
sales were made cautiously at about previous quotations.
Other descriptions were in slow request, on former terms.

FRANCE,

Le Constztutionnel briefly notifies the fact that
to day is the anniversary of the birth of his Majesty
the Emperor. His Majesty having been born
on the 30th of April, 1808, at the Palace of the
Tuileries—the first Prince of the dynasty whose
birth was annouEced with imperial honours (salvos of
artillery, the crash of drums, and the blast of
trumpets) to all parts of the then vast empire of
Napoleon the Great, virtually, in 1808, the Lord
Paramount of Continental Europe.
Lord Elliot, says Le Pays, while passing through
Paris, whither he returned only yesterday morning
on his way back from Greece, had a long interview
in the afternoon with M. Dronyn de Lhuys, at
the Ministry for Foreign Affairs.
A Council of Ministers was held yesterday at the
Tuileries, the Emperor presiding.
Prince Napoleon and the Princess Clotilde pur-
pose leaving Paris on Monday for the intended ex-
cursion to Egypt.
BOURSE, April 18.—The market is heavy, but the
quotations of yesterday were well maintained for
some time after the opening. They have since
