SlR,—The instructions from the Peruvian Govern-
ment for a settlement with the bondholders only ar-
rived in London by the last West India packet—say
the 4th of December. From that date to the 20th
inst. several interviews took place between his Excel-
lency the Peruvian Minister and Mr. J. D. Powles,
the deputy-chairman of the committe of bondholders,
until the terms were finally adjusted, and expressly
approved of, by Mr. J. D. Powles, who, moreover,
assured the Minister that he would support them at
the meeting ; and, at the suggestion of these gentle-
men, an article was superadded to the proposals about
to be submitted to the hondholders, providing for the
nomination of commissioners, who are to receive the
whole amount of interest falling due on the Peruvian
bonds, for the benefit of the bondholders. Mr. Powles
received from his Excellency a rough draft of the
terms offered by the Peruvian Government, so early as
Wednesday, the 20th, so that he was, from that day,
aware of the improved terms, although the public was
not informed is to their nature until Friday and
Saturday following. It was rumoured last week in
the City, when the rise of about 10 per cent. occurred
on Peruvian Stock (between Wednesday and Satur-
day), that the Peruvian Government had been buying
up its stock ; the insinuation was immediately disa-
vowed and refuted by the Peruvian Consul- General
in a letter he addressed to the Globe, of Saturday,
23d ; and the foregoing facts speak for themselves.
It is clear that others than the Peruvian Government
may have been in the market. Perhaps Mr. Powles
would explain at the meeting, on Thursday next,
by what accident the terms offered by the Peru-
vian Minister was not made public on the 20th—the
day he received them. The meeting should also be
informed touching the superadded article, and why
the whole bulk of the dividends belonging to the
bondholders should be managed or distributed by
commissioners when there are banks in London
affording unquestionable security. Those matters
should be sifted at the general meeting, and some
mode devised which, in all future offers by the
South-American Governments, would prevent any
particular individual, or deputation, from reaping the
fruits of a prior knowledge of terms to the prejudice
of the bondholders in general, as well as the public.
The abundance of guano in Peru makes the present
offer, if accepted, a positive certainty, which no
political disturbance in that country can effect. The
amount payable this first year of interest on the
active bonds, at four per cent., will be about
r 'O,OOO/. ; the four following years, will be in-
creased one-half per cent. per annum, until it
reached six per cent., increasing the annual pay-
men to much above 100,0001. The Government
of Peru does not require commissioners to manage
this money. What necessity have the bondholders
for commissioners ?

THE DECEASED EARL or AUCRLAND.—AIthough
there are no Cabinet ministers in town, rumour has
already pointed to two noblemen as likely candidates for
the office of First Lord of the Almiralty—viz., ;he
Marquis of Normanby, now ambaitador at and
the Earl of Carlisle, the First Commissioner of Woods
and Forests. Captain Charles Eden, the relative and
private secretary to the late Noble Earl, proceeded to
the Grange on Monday, and having given the necessary
preparatory directions for the removal of the body of
Lord Auckland to London, returned to town yesterday.
The place of interment has not yet been fixed upon,
but it is probable that the remains of this very highly-
esteemed and much-lamented nobleman will rest in the
family vault at Beckenham, near Bromley, Kent. The
noble houses of Buckinghamshire, Bexley-, Godolphin,
Brougham, &e., are thrown into mourning by thfs sad
event.—Herald.

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.
(THIS DAY.)
George Collins, the ostler at the Bell Inn, White-
chapel-road, was indicted for stealing a sack of mixed
corn, the property of Messrs. Peacock, of Stratford.
A policeman stated, that one day last week he saw the
prisoner go to a waggon of Messrs. Peacock's, which
was standing oppocdte the inn, and take from it a sack o
c al). He followed him into the yard and took him into'
custody.
Peacock's waggoner stated that the s:ck of corn found
on the prisoner by•the policeman had been taken off the
waggon. It had been mixed for the food of his own
heres. The sack had his masters' name on it.

THE AUTHORSHIP OF " LUCILLE BELMONT."—
Were we to hazard a conjecture upon the question which
must immediately be raised—" Who is the author of
Lucille Belmont ?”'—we might mislead, therefore we
refrain from doing so. While some vigorous sketches of
distinguished statesmen, and minute details that could be
given only by one who had marked them in their pri•
racy, induce us to ascribe the work to a public man, a
member of the legislature, the juvenile feelings, the
simple elcquence, the pure romantic spirit that pervade
it, make 8s pause ere we decide that the first bloom of
youth and the ripeness of matured manhood can coexist
in the same individual ; and th©n the pictures of life in
the highest circles, not drawn second-hand, but painted
from originals, by a master artist, increase our perplexity.
Of one thing alone are we certain, that the author or
r
of
Lucille Belmont' is a man of singular refinementi,i
extensive political and diplomatic knowledge, high
breeding, of exalted station, and of excellent intentions.

THE CITY GAS QuEsTroN.—Yesterday a deputa-
tion from the inhabitants of Farringdon Ward Without,
waited upon the Lord Mayor with a requisition signed
by upwards of 500 of the inhabitants, praying that his
Lordship would convene a wardmote for the considera-
tion of the question of the enormous price of gas in the
city of London. His Lordship appointed the wardmote
to take place on Friday, the 12th instant, at the Court
House, in the Old Bailey, at six o'clock in the evening.

AWFULLY SUDDEN DEATIL—We regret to have
to announce the death of Mr. John George Newsom
yosterday, at his residence (Sullivan's Quay), in the 30th
year of his age. Mr. Newsom had been for many
years connected will the Cork Press, in the capacity of
repor:er—having been attached to the Cork Examiner
fo r a lengthened period, as also to the Southern Reporter,
en which journal he was engaged up to the period of
his very sudden demise, and during which lengthened
period he won the esteem and merited the best regards
of his proiessional brethren, as also the proprietary of
both establishments. For several months past Mr.
NI Iwscn's c..nstitution had been gradually yielding under
an attack of disesve of the heart, though within the lx,t
few weeks he hail so far rallied as to be able to enter on
the discharge of the usual routine duties connected with
his department of journalism; notwithstanding, a sudden
attack, immediately after breakfast yesterday, terminated
hi.l existence in the brief space of a few minutes, amid
till deep-telt regret of a number of affectionate rela-
tives and friends by whom he happened to be surrounded
at the awful moment.—Cork Examiner of Monday.

The prisoner declared that the sack had been a long
time in his possession, and had on the day in question
just purchased the corn at a chandler's in the neighbour-
hood, to whom he had referred the police man.
The constable being re-called said, that upon inquiry,
he found that some man like the prisoner, had bought a
-uck of chaff, not of mixed corn, at the chandler's re-
ferred to. But he still positively swore that he saw the
prisoner take the sack from the waggon, and it contained
not chafT, but the corn mixed and rrepared for food.
The prisoner had been in custody bvfore upon a similar
charge, and his fellow-ostler was last year convicted
and sentenced to six months' imprisonment for stealing a
sack of corn from a waggon at the inn door under similar
circumstances.
The jury returned a verdict of Guilty, and the prisoner
was sentenced to six months imprisonment.
Two or three petty cases of larceny concluded the
session, which was unusually short.

GOVERNMENT EMIGRATION.—Yesterday the Colo-
nial Land and Emigration Commissioners appointed a
vessel to sail with male and female emigrants, embarking
at Deptford and Plymouth for Port Phillip, on the 29
inst., for Port Adelaide, Ftb. 2- Sydney, the sth and
7th; Port Phillip, Bth; and Adelaide on the 18th. On
Monday two vessels, for the conveyance of 500 emigrants
to Sydney and Port Phillip, commenced the embarkation
of the stores and passengers at Deptford. In addition to
the above, seven other vessels have been taken up by the
commissioners, and will sail before the 22d inst. for New
South Wales and Australia, making a total of fifteen
vessels, their united burden being 7,500 tons, calculated
to carry 3,750 adults.
