VICTORIA.

The Legislative Council had rejected the Con-
vict-. Prevention Act as modified according to the
suggestions contained in the last despatches of the
Duke of Newcastle, adhering to its former mea-
sures though disallowed by the Secretary for the
Colonies, as absolutely necessary for the safety of
the province. The feeling against any concession
of the power of excluding convicts conditionally
pardoned from the colony had been increased by
the report that the penal settlement at Norfolk
Island was to broken up, and the convicts removed
to Hobart Town. This measure is severely con-
demned, and is considered as justifying almost any
steps.of self-defence.
On the Ist of October Colonel Anderson gave
notice—

" That, on the notification being made to the house
of the Lieutenant-Governor's assent being given to the
Convicts Prevention Act Amendment Bill, he should
move a humble address to her Majesty, assuring her of
the loyalty of the houso to her Majesty's throne and
person, and setting forth the reasons which had induced
the house to pass a bill which, in the opinion of the
Secretary of State for the Colonies, infringed upon her
Majesty's Royal prerogative."

The three men convicted of being engaged in thq
attack and robbery of the gold escort in July lad

(BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.)
LIVERPOOL, MONDAY, 8 A.M.
By the Royal mail steamer Asia we have advices
from New York to the 28th ult. She has brought
362,759 dollars in specie.
The Asia passed, on the 28th, the ship York
Town, bound in, and the Harlequin, from New York,
for Liverpool. On the 30th, at noon, the screw
steamer Glasgow, from Glasgow, for New York, in
lat. 40.47, long. 66.3, and on the Bth, at 1.30 p.m.,
passed the steamer Niagara, hence for Boston.
The steamer Pacific, from Liverpool, arrived at
New York on the 26th ult.
Another terrible conflagration had occurred in
New York on the 26th ult., by which upwards of
$1,000,000 worth of property had been de-
stroyed. The fire broke out in a warehouse,
No. 244, Front-street, and thence extended
to several buildings on both sides of the street, and
five or six buildings with their contents, valued
at about 80,000 dollars, were destroyed. But the
melancholy result of the fire was the destruction
of the monster clipper ship Great Republic and the
clipper ship White Squall, and packet Walker, to-
gether with their cargoes, entailing a loss of nearly
900,000 dollars. A portion of the cargo of the
Great Republic is said to have been insured in
England.
Californian advices of the 7th December had
been received at New Orleans, but the details of
the news had not been received at New York.
The mail steamer Winfield Scott, which sailed
from San Francisco on the Ist December, with
upwards of 1,000,000 in gold dust, went ashore on
the following day, and became a total loss ; but
the mails and treasure were saved.
Silver mines of extraordinary richness had been
discovered near Acapulco.
There was no material change in the Californian
markets.

Havannah advices of the 22d ult. state that the
new Governor of Cuba signified his determination
to do all in his power to prevent the landing of
slaves, and also to capture slavers approaching the
Island.
The British frigate Vestal sailed from Havannah
on the 21st for Jamaica.

There was a good demand for sugarsat Havannah
and many lots had been sold at full prices. The
stock in port was estimated at 45,000 boxes, mostly
in second hands.

We have advices from Vera Cruz to the 22d, and
from the city of Mexico to the 17th ult.
Santa Anna had issued a decree accepting the
Guadalajara declaration with a salary of $60,000,
but takes the title of Most Serene Highness, in-
stead of Captain-General.
Santa Anna had decreed that, in case of his
death or moral disqualification, he should name his
successor.

The advices per Pacific had au unfavourable
effect upon the Stock market. Money at 6to 7
per cent, for loans on call. First-class paper was
discounted at 9 to 10 per cent.
Exchange in fair demand.
Bills on London, 109 to 1091 ; Paris 5 131- to
5 171.

The cotton market was active at very firm prices.
Provisions without change. Wheat and flour in
good demand at advanced price- , Indian corn

LA TV INTELLIGENCE-(THIS DAY.)

BANKRUPTCY COURT.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Goulburn.)
IN RE SOUTH.

This bankrupt was described as of Maidstone, beer
seller, and to-day was appointed for consideration of his
certificate.

It appeared that the only opposition was made by a
creditor who had swept off the greater part of the
property under a bill of sale, and the bankrupt came
before the Court with but 1001.

His Honour said that the brewers appeared to have
taken all they could, and in this case the lesser trader
was the least to blame, and was entitled to an immediate
certificate of the second class.

NOTE OP THE FOUR POWERS.

The undersigned ambassador of her Britannic
Majesty, in accordance with the representatives of
France, Austria, and Prussia, has the honour to
make known to the Sublime Porte that the Govern-
ments of the four Powers laving still reason to be-
lieve that his Majesty the Emperor of Russia does
not regard the thread of negotiations as broken by
the declaration of war, and by the events the con-
sequence thereof : and knowing,moreover, that,
according to the proposed declarations of his Im-
perial Majesty, that he desires only to behold as-
sured a perfect equality of rights and immunities
octroyed by his Majesty the Sultan and his glorious
ancestors to the Christian communities, subjects of
the Sublime Porte ;
On its part, the Sublime Porte responding to
those declarations by that which it made itself to
regard it as concerning its honour to continue to
maintain the said rights and immunities, and to be
still disposed to put an end to the difference arising
between the two Powers :

The negotiation to be followed shall be based
upon :-
1. The most speedy evacuation possible of the princi-
palities. (La plus prompte possible.)
2. The renewal (renouvellement) of ancient treaties.
3, The communication of the firms relative to the
spiritual privileges oetroyed by the Sublime Porte to all
its subjects not Mussulmen, which communication,
made to the Powers, should be accompanied by suitable
assurances given to each of them.

The arrangement already made to complete the
agreement (6'accord) relative to the holy places
and to the religious establishments at Jerusalem
shall be definitively adopted.

This arrangement concerns the erection of a
church, and the establishment of a Russian hospital
at Jerusalem.

The Sublime Porte shall declare to the repre-
sentatives that it is ready to name a plenipotentiary
to establish an armistice, and to negotiate on the
above-mentioned bases, with the concurrence of the
Powers, and in a neutral town to be agreed upon
betwo 3 n them.

The declarations made by the Powers in the pre-
amble of the treaty of July 13, 1841, shall be for-
mally confirmed by those same Powers in the in-
terest of the independence and integrity of the
Ottoman Empire, and in that of the equilibrium
of Europe (et de celui du concert Europgen).
The Sublime Porte shall declare (declarerait) on
its part in the same interest its firm resolution to
develope more efficaciously its administrative sys-
tem, and those internal reforms of a nature to
satisfy the wants and. the just expectations of its
subje3ts of all classes.

VICTORIA,

The Legislative Council bad rejected the Con-
vict Prevention Act as modified
.according to the
suggestions contained in the last despatches of the
Duke
of Newcastle, adhering to its former mea-
sures though disallowed by the Secretary for the
Colonies, as absolutely necessary for the safety of
the province. The feeling against any concession
of the power of excluding convicts conditionally
pardoned from the colony had been increased by
the report that the penal settlement at Norfolk
Island was to broken up, and the convicts removed.
to Hobart Town. This measure is severely con-
demned, and is considered as justifying almost any
steps of self-defence.
On the Ist of October Colonel Anderson gave
notice—

" That, on the notification being made to the house
of the Lieutenant-Governor's assent being 'given to the
Convicts Prevention Act Amendment Bill, he should
move a humble address to her Majesty, assuring her of
the loyalty of the house to her Majesty's throne and
person, and setting forth the reasons which bad induced
the house to pass a bill which, in the opinion of the
Secretary of State for the Colonies, infringed upon her
Majesty's Royal prerogative."

attack and robbery of the gold escort in July last

five or six buildings with their contents, valued
at about 80,000 dollars, were destroyed. But the
melancholy result of the fire was the destruction
of the monster clipper ship Great Republic and the

gether with their cargoes, entailing a loss of nearly
900,000 dollars. A portion of the cargo of the

FURTHER ADVANCE IN THE PRICE OF COAL.—This
morning, in consequence of the extreme scarcity of coals
at the various wharfs, the retail coal-dealers of the me-
tropolis and suburbs generally, increased their prices ld.
and 2d. per cwt.—viz., those which were selling at 2s.
2d., 2s. 4d., and 2s. Gd. per cwt., are now respectively
2s. 3d., 2s. Gd., and 2s. 7d. per cwt.
ADVANCE IN THE PRICE OF BREAD.—This morning
the bakers of the metropolis made & simultaneous ad-
vance in the price of bread, the 41b. loaf which was sell-
ing at 9d., 91d., and 10d., cannot now be obtained for
less than Old., 10d., and 11d, respectively ; household
or country bread is advanced a penny, viz., from Bd.
to 91d. ; the League bakery bread is at 10d. the 41b.
loaf, and the best or full priced is from le. to ls. Old.
The reason assigned for this increase in price is, that
flour which could be had last week at 708., will at this
day's market be fully 75s ?

THE LATE M LEON FAUCHER.

• tk
The French papers have recently announced the dea
cf M. Leon Faucher, which took place a few dal° ag
at Marseilles, where he was attacked by typhus fever, on
hii way to Hyeres in search of a milder climate for t"
relief of his already broken health. As a member of
Chamber of Deputies and a Minister of the Republic;
a Fellow of the Institute of Frunce for the division e'
Moral and Political Science, and as the author of se/e;
ral works, besides having been one of the 02°54
active and able contributors to the political press "
France when it flourished in the fullest enjoyment ante'
dom and of power, the name of Leon Faucher deserft
not to pass unnoticed here. Sprung from obscure parr,
age in the south of France, and acquainted from childh 01``
with every form of adversity, Leon Faucher gave ear
Fr )of of his indomitable energy and application, for eve
in the benches of the school to which he was sent .a'
Toulouse, such was his confidence in his powers, that 1
boasted he should one day be a Minister of State ; 2130
in the extraordinary vicissitudes of human affairs j 1
lived to realise that boast, and to govern his coup%
at a period of extreme agitation and danger.
obtained in early life a remarkable proficiency cialistbl
e
cal studies ; and his career in Paris commenced la
humble capacity of tutor to the sons of M. Day, th.:
Postmaster of the capital. Early in the reign °f I'l°lo
Philippe he became connected with the leading orgal_
of the Liberal press ; first is a contributor to t,i;
Temps, and afterwards as principal editor of the Cantu,,
cancais ; but always a steady supporter of the adhered
of his party, the Gauche, to which he inflexibly adhere
through life. His style was clear, pungent) and
argu
mentative.

THE RESULTS OF THE HARVEST.

f7?,e )
Tile •,,vd.utB of the different States may be estimated at
10,450,000 hectolitres. These figures are thus divided :
—England, 5,800,000 ; Belgium, 750,000 ; Holland,

. _
1,200,000 ; Switzerland, 1,000,000 ; Tuscany, 700,000 ;
ar.d the Sardinian States, 1,000,000 ; in all, 10,450,000.
Thus, according to our calculation, the deficit in Europe
this year must be 10 millions of hectolitres, whereas last
year it was 40 millions. France and England alone im-
ported nearly 29 millions. The share of Italy, Switzer-
land, Belgium, and Holland, must have been 11 millions,
which certainly is net an exaggerated amount. In com-
paring the two years of 1853 and 1854, it is clear that
the situation of Europe is better this year even without
her having at her disposal the granaries of the Black
Sea. The United States alone would be sufficiently rich
to suffice for every want, if there did not remain the Baltic,
Spain, Egypt, and the Danubian provinces, offering
nearly as great an amount of resources. These consi-
derations fully justify the decree of Nov. 30. The high
prices in the markets around us imposed it as a law on
the Government to suspend the exportation of corn ; for
without that measure our wheat would have bees sent
abroad, and we should have been left without resources
to satisfy the demands of consumption. Thanks to the
protecting measures of the Government, France, so
cruelly tried last year, will not this year have to
struggle against the horrors of scarcity. The harvest
of corn leaves over and above the wants a considerable
reserve. If it be admitted with us that this reserve

=keg up for the deficit left by maize, buckwheat, and po-
tatoes, it may be said that prices have reached their highest
point. Already even they are beginning to decrease,
for since November an average decline of Ur. 50c. the hec-
tolitre may be perceived. It is towards the north and
centre that the fall has been the most marked. In the

east, where Switzerland had made some purchases,
the decline does not exceed 50e. According to the
official statistics, the hectolitre of wheat costs on
an average 15fr. 85c. in production. But on each
side of that price, there is, on the one hand, the
Var, where the hectolitre costs 23fr. 50c., and on
the other," the Moselle, where it costs only llfr.
But in comparing the average of the cost with that
of the sale, which is at present 26fr. 93c., it is evi-
dent that the prices are sufficient to remunerate the
agriculturist. In the midst of the critical circum-
stances in which the country is placed, duty and in-
terest alike counsel the producer not to aggravate by
exorbitant pretensions, which are certain to be dis-
appointed, a situation rendered already so difficult by
the dearness of food. Let the farmers, therefore, in
place of waiting for higher prices, sell their products at
the present rate of quotations, for in doing so they will
find it doubly their advantage, for just as much as all
other citizens they hare need of tranquillity to prosper."

THE PRINCIPALITIES.

BUCHAREST, DEC. 7.—M1.513T Pacha starts on
Monday or Tuepday. Thirty or forty thousand
Turks, and a hundred guns, are to be embarked
at Varna or Baltchik, under his superintendence.
Next week Omer Pacha, too, will start for
the Crimea. The troops Iv ill most probably
be disembarked at Eupatoria. The prospect of
entering on a campaign at this season is not very
pleasant ; but, taking it for :all in all, it is plea-
santer for me than this stupffd life at Bucharest.
I have no doubt Omer Pachai's army will redeem
the character of the Turks. Under his eye they
are ready for anything ; which shows what they
would be were they generally well officered.

information from authentic not-trees, aye that Ge-

11. Provided always, that the men serving under this act

purpose of being trained, arrayed, and formed into regiments,
battalions, or corps for foreign service, and except such bodies
of reserve as may be kept in the United Kingdom, and which
shall be kept and used solely for the purpose of training and
arraying recruits, and for supplying vacancies in such regi-
ments, battalions, or corps ; and the men serving under this
act shall not be billetted or quartered on any person or per-
sons ; and that there shall not be within the United Kingdom
more in the whole than ten thousand men serving under this
act at any one time.

Mr. John George Phalli:lore—To add the following proviso
to Clause 4 :

Provided always, and be it enacted, that at least one-third
of the officers of the said ten thousand men shall be British
subjects, and that none of the said ten thousand men shall
remain in this kingdom above one year from the time when
they shall be enlisted under the provisions of this act.
Mr. Packe—Amendment to the sth Clause :

This act shall continue in force until the end of the next
session of Parliament, or until one year after the ratification
of a definitive treaty of peace, if such treaty shall have been
sooner concluded : provided that the expiration of this act
shall in uo way affect the service of each foreigner who shall
