BANKRUPTCY COURT-(THIS DAY).

(Before Mr. Commissioner Goulburn.)
THE SALSETTE. -EXTRAORDINARY CASE.--EJECTMENT OF
THE MESSENGER'S ASSISTANT AND SAILING OF THE
VESSEL.

A fter the inquiry yesterday before the above learned
commissioner, considerable sensation was created from
information received that the Salsette, having obtained
new anchors, had set sail on her destination to Australia,
and having at the time al.l the property seized by the
messenger (Mr. Hamber) on board, and that the as-
sistant messenger was en route as an involuntary pas-
senger to the regions of the gold diggings. The first
information was gleaned througii Lloyd's List, from which
it appeared that the vessel sailed early in the morning of
Thursday. The electric telegraph was called into re-
quisition, and the fact of the vessel having sailed was
placed beyond doubt, and it was presumed that the mate
had taken charge of the vessel.
This morning Mr. Hamber's assistant returned to
town, and made a report of his eventful history on the
seas. As he will be examined before the Commissioner,
it can only be stated now, that the vessel was put out to
sea against his will, and he had no power to prevent it ;
that when out at sea, he was informed that there were
no provisions on board for him, and as he had not got
an outfit, it was suggested that he should go ashore,
which he did by means of a boat.
[The ulterior proceedings in this extraordinary case
have not at present transpired, but it is supposed that
an application will be made for authority from the
Government for a duly accredited officer to proceed
by steamer to intercept the Salsette so singularly
rescued.]

MINING INTELLIGENCE.

(From the Mining Journal of this day.)

' This week has been rather barren of mining news, but
the extent of general business reported last week has
been fully maintained, if not increased, by the appear-
ance of fresh buyers ; and although higher prices are
offered for stocks, there are few sellers to be found of
those most in demand—such as Basset, United, West
Providence, West Basset, Herodsfoot, and a few others
just coming into notice, and in which large purchases
have been made. Tresavean reached 2801., and after-
wards receded to 2501. No information has yet been
given as to the nature of the improvement ; but the
effect has been to cause an inquiry for the surrounding
mines—such as Trethellan, West Trethellan, and
Brewer. In Keswick shares a few transactions have
taken place at 4/.1; but they have since advanced. This
company preserts an instance of the strange anomalies
sometimes apparent in the value (in the market) of mining
property. Let a man well known in the market for his
capacity in " getting up" shares bring out a sett upon
which, perhaps, no lodes have been opened, and not
one penny spent, yet he will get his thousands pre-
mium, because the public, upon the faith of a pre-
sumed and often fictitious rise, scramble for the shares
at any price asked ; and thus in the fever of
gambling overlook legitimate speculations. For in-
stance, the Keswick Company have a tract of mineral
ground five miles long and three miles wide, with three
promising mines about paying the cost of working, after
20,0001. and upwards have been expended in opening
them and in erecting machinery ; and yet the shares,
1,200 in number, have been selling at 41. (141. discount),
and at little more than the value of the plant on the
mines. Unfortunately, the mines hitherto have not
been worked in the most judicious manner; and thee
