SUN OFFICE, Six o'clock.

AUSTRALIA.

The letters and newspapers brought to England by
the steam-ship Melbourne, from Australia, were delivered
this afternoon, shortly after four o'clock.
We publish the following interesting intelligence from
a supplement of the South, Australian Register, dated
March 18, 1853 :

ADELAIDE, 18TH MARCH, 1853.

Our last summary was published on the 10th of
January, for transmission by the Chusan steamer to
Singapore, which sailed early on the morning of that
day.

The Government returns of imports and exports forthe
quarter ended 25th Dec. last are of a very satisfactory
character. During that period the exports produced in the
colony (exclusive of coin and bullion) exceeded the imports
consumed or remaining for consumption, by no less a sum
than 55,1471. 6s. The excess of exports for the entire year,
is also remarkable. The imports (exclusive of coin and
bullion) amounted to 538,9931. 2s. 8d ; but the imports
re-exported were valued at no less a sum than 300,9531.
ss. 7d. ; so that the imports consumed or remaining for
consumption in the colony did not exceed 238,0191. 15s.
id. ; whilst our exports for the entire year (exclusive
of coin and bullion, and of imported goods re-exported)
present the astonishing aggregate of 736,2671. 17s.
Being a surplus of 48,483/. 16s. 3d. A note appended
to the quarterly statement mentions that the sum of
28,5231. has been remitted to the Land and Emigration
Commissioners to be expended on immigration.
The various quarterly returns furnish the following
results of the entire year :
Ordinary revenue
Gold escort and assay office du
Land fund receipts

WAKEFIELD-JULY 1.

A moderate supply of wheat reported in this day's mar-
ket, and short of other grain. Great activity has per-
vaded the wheat trade this week, and in London a large
business has been done in Mediterranean wheat for France
and Belgium. These circumstances caused sellers to de-
mand high prices here to-day, and a fair extent of business
has been done in fresh wheat at an advance of fully 3s per
qr. Other sorts must be noted 2s to 3s dearer. Barley
nominal. Beans fully as dear. Oats id per stone, and
shelling is per load, higher.

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.
CALCUTTA.

(Front Colin Campbell'. Overland Price Current, Mayl6.)
The Bentinck and the Oriental steamers arrived almost
simultaneously off Calcutta en the 13th inst., the latter
bringing intelligence up to the 7th ult. The advices
regarding some of our staple articles aro not satis-
factory.
Very little business has been done in our indigo mar-
ket, only 274 chests having been brought forward since
the date of our last report, of which 119 chests were
withdrawn or bought in. The shipments to the 13th
inst. amount to 24,845 chests, containing 93,563 mds.,
of which 13,587 chests have gone to Great Britain, and
7,970 to France. Rain has fallen pretty generally in
Lower Bengal, but some factories still complain of the
want of it.
Money continues tolerably abundant, .but more strin-
gent terms are exacted for accommodations. Bank of
Bengal shares are consequently improving in value, and
now are more freely taken at 6,000. New Oriental
Life Assurance shares have risen to 365. Government
Securities, with the exception of the Loan advertised to
be paid off, maintain their position. New Fives are
quoted at 109-6 to 109-8. Many holders of the 5 per
cent. paper to be paid off on the 25th July have dis-
counted it at the Bank of Bengal at 3 per cent and
invested the proceeds in the Four per Cents. "
We have no alteration to note in Exchange. First-
class credit bills have been done at 2-11 to 2.13 and
documents at 2-11. There is not much demand for bills
owing to the small sales of imports.
Freights remain unaltered at 3/. 17s. 6d. saltpetre,

The Madrid journals of the 26th ult. have arrived.
The Gazette contains a Royal decree creating a consul-
ship at Jerusalem, charged, amongst other things, to
come to an understanding with the Spanish Franciscan
monks residing in Polestine for the purpose of supporting

the interests of the Roman Catholic rtligion, and to pre-
vent the ancient rights of Spain from being slighted. A
commission is also, the decree declares, to be appointed
to examine the archives of what is called the Pious Work
at Jerusalem, and the state of its funds, and to send in a
report on the same as soon ;13 possible, as well as an his-
torical paper on the rights of the crown of Spain to the
patronage of the Holy Places. Measures are to be taken for
the purchase of a house to educate Franciscan missiona-
ries for the Holy Land. The Gazette also appoints the
commission, alluded to above, consisting of six persons.
A letter from the Governor of the Philippine Islands, of

the rice crop was most abundant, and that everything
was perfectly tranquil in the islands.

MINING INTELLIGENCE.

( From the Mining Journal of this day.)
MINES.—The uncertainty of ourforeign affairs, couple
with the low price of metals, have put a stop to specu
lation for the present, and we cannot. therefore, repor
any improvement in the general tone of the market. A
few offers have been made for first-class dividend shares,
but for speculative mines, which :may be liable to calls,
there are scarcely any buyers to be found. As in an
excited market all wait for the " top " price, so now
most speculators are waiting to see how " low" shares
will be offered.
In the Metal Market.—There is a considerable inquiry
for Rails, with an increase in price. An extensive bu-
siness is also doing in Scotch Pig.—But little doing in
Spelter.—Much interest has been created by the an-
nouncement that the Dutch sale of Banca Tin in August
will be 112,000 slabs, with the option of declaring an
additional 10,000—the amount of last year being 156,702
slabs :or 4,000 tons against 5,200—as this article is
likely to become a strong competitor with English Tin,
being superior in colour, and for some purposes more
economical.—Tin Plates are in but small demand.
In the Bullion Market.—Dollars, 4s. urd. per oz. ;
pillar dollars, ss. 2d. per oz. ; bar silver, 58. It-d. per oz.
standard ; bar silver holding 5 grs. of gold, ss. Itd. per
oz. standard ; bar gold, 775. 9d. per oz. standard; Colum-
bian doubloons, 775. per oz, ; fine cake silver, ss. Sid.
per oz.

The dividends declared in June, 1853, amounted to
40,1461. ls. Bd.

The gold mining shares this week have again been ex-
tremely inactive ; the market, indeed, has been almost
in a state of abeyance. Under these circumstances
prices have sympathised with the other departments of
the Stock Exchange, and been uniformly flat. Yester-
day evening they closed heavily, at a further reduction.
In Miscellaneous Shares the market has been very
flat, and speculative operations almost wholly sus-
pended ; the only improvement that has taken place was
in land shares.

THE MAURITIUS.

PLYMOUTH, MAY 28.
The intelligence from the Mauritius by the Bos-
phorus is to the same date—the 6th of April—as
by the Queen of the South vitt India. Up to the
2d of April about 63,000 tons of sugar had been
shipped, and the crop was expected to reach 70,000
tons. Ships were scarce and freights to England
were 3/. 10s, ;to Australia, 4/. 10s. Exchange on
England was 2i to 3 per cent. discount.
The Mauritius Commercial Gazette of the 4th of
April says :
" The arrival of three steamers, on three consecutive
days has infused life and animation throughout the co-
lony. The Hydaspes was 64 days from Plymouth and
22 from the Cape. Her machinery is out of order, and
she returns to England. The Queen of the South has
made the quickest voyage to the Mauritius. She left
Plymouth on the 16th of February, and made the pas-
sage in 46 days. The Bosphorus performed her voyage
from Calcutta admirably for so small a vessel, being only
20 days from that port to the Mauritius. When she
arrived at Galle on the evening of the 23d (March), the
Suez steamer (Hindostan) had not arrived, but Captain
Benson went very creditably to the postmaster and an-
nounced his intention to wait three days, if necessary.
Fortunately he had to wait only a few hours."
The ship Alexander, from London, laden, and
ready for sea, and the brig Lady Sale, with guano,
from the coast of Arabia, bound to Dundee, were
at the Mauritius on the 6th of April. The ships
Eleanor, for London, and the Woodstock, for
Liverpool, were loading.

don, was also on board, having in his custody
Spriggs, the fraudulent bankrupt, who ran off from
Birmingham, and for whose apprehension 1,0001.
had been offered. They will leave here for London
by the noon train to-day. The ship will leave on
Tuesday for Liverpool.
We learn from some of the passengers that after
leaving the Cape they had a very good run as far
as the Line, with favourable winds all the way.
Almost immediately after passing the Line they
got into the north-east trades, and in consequence
of that, instead of the ship keeping along the coast
of Africa, she was driven much to the westward,'
and the wind delayed her very much. Being short
of provisions, she was compelled to put into Fayal,
but only remained there about thirty-six hours.
After leaving Fayal the wind was dead against her
till within the last three or four days, but she does
not appear to have fallen into the gale which the
Bosphorous encountered. The ship was so light
that all her topmasts were struck in consequence.
A great many of the passengers had been to the
diggings, arid generally speaking have come home
tolerably successful ; but many have returned who
have only been to the colony, and, being quite dis-
satisfied with the place went no further. But their
dissatisfaction, said our informant, can hardly, with
fairness, be set down against the colony, because
they were not long enough there to judge of it.
The accommodations at Melbourne are very scanty
indeed, and not by any means equal to the wants
of the large masses of people that are constantly
pouring into it from all parts of the world.
The Sarah Sands, on account of her lightness,
the state of the weather, and of her passengers
having memorialised the captain in writing, put
into Plymouth instead of Liverpool.

AN ELEVEN OF ENGLAND v. FIFTEEN OF

OXFORDSHIRE.

This has now become an annual match, although in
the present instance it was not The Eleven, but an eleven
got together by Pilch. Upon the arrival of Pilch's forces
at Oxford, in which city the contest was to be fought, on
the Christ Church ground, he discovered that there were
two defaulters. These vacancies he consequently filled
up with Willsher and another Pilch.
The match occupied Monday, Tuesday, and Wednes-
day, but the score, by some accident, did not :reach us.
There was some unusually fine batting exhibited
by Mr. Armitstead, who obtained and maintained for a
considerable time a complete mastership of the bowling,
and, therefore, he frequently did just as he pleased with
the ball, vastly to the chagrin of the excellent bowlers
by whom he was opposed. Hence the large contribution,
71, of this gentleman. Hurst played well to the tune of
18, whilst Mr, Colley carried out his bat with a score of
48, and Afr.,-Willes offered 28 to the general amount,
which eventually was not less than 200.
The Eleven were very unsuccessful, and only placed
72 runs upon the paper, of which total Caffyn presented
29. The Eleven were thus called upon, in pursuance of
the 46th law of the game, to follow their innings. This
they did, and upon the occasion effected a score of 184.
This sum was principally made up by Chatterton's 46,.
by Grundy's 27, by Parr 24, by Guy's 22, and by But-
