ROWING MATCH FOR TWO PAIRS OF SILVER

OARS.

A very spirited contest took place yesterday for two pairs
of silver oars, presented by Messrs. Cownden and Wentzell,
the boat builders, to the frequenters of their establishment.
Notwithstanding the gloomy and unfavourable state of the
weather, there was a very large assemblage of spectators, and
the sport appeared to afford much gratification. The row
was in three heats, with eight pairs of oars.

First Heat.

Messrs. Blenkhar and Price (White) 1
Thomas and Hawes (Stripe) 2
J. Price and Lawson
The distance was from the Ship, Fore-street, Lambeth, up
round a boat moored off Nine Elms, down round a boat op-
posite the Messrs. Searle's, and back to the starting-place.
A very capital race was succeeded by stripe taking the lead,
followed by white. In rounding the upper boat white went
ahead and kept it.

COURT OF ALDERMEN.

Yesterday, after the swearing-in of Alderman Challis
and Mr. Kennard as Sheriff of London and Sheriff of
Middlesex, a special Court of Aldermen was held, upon
the application of Alderman Thomas Wood, for the pur-
pose of receiving certain papers and resolutions relative
to the Talacre Coal Mine.
As it was well-known that the production of these
papers was intended to remove the injurious impressions
against Alderman Wood, in consequence of his connexion
with the speculation of the Talacre Mine, nineteen Alder-
men assembled immediately after the ceremonial above
alluded to took place. A great number of persons occu-
pied the space below the bar, and the most lively interest
was manifested.

requisite, not only that he should be deputed by some lord or lady of
a manor or reputed manor, but also that such deputation should be

WOOL.

The past week's arrivals of Wool into London have been
large, viz., 3,663 bales f..om Sydney, 796 ditto from Portland
Bay, New South Wales, and 100 ditto from various other
quarters. The public sales—at which about 26,000 bales
have been offered and disposed 6f—have been brought to a
conclusion. and we consider the prices to have advanced
(compared with those realised at the previous auctions) quite
Id per lb. Privately there is more doing in English Wools,
at full rates; but foreign parcels are neglected.
TALLOW.

The price of Tallow is advancing both on the spot and for
forward delivery. Fine Y C is 445. The last year's YC is
all sold, and there is little Tallow here now except first sort.
New Y C Town Tallow is 42s 6d, nett cash.

DISCOVERY OF A GOLD MINE.

The existence of the most precious of all the metals
in this province has often been asserted in this journal,
not only on the assurance of the scientific and disin-
terested Mr. Meng4, who has been thought to intend that
his knowledge of the veins of auriferous bdolah should
die with him, but from other talented information, as
well as the known existence here of very remarkable
facts in mineralogical analogy. But it was only seven
days ago that surmise and hypothesis gave place to
certainty, and the demonstrative fact that we may rank
gold amongst our mineral riches—existing too, as re-
peated essays and analyses have subsequently shown, in
a state of native purity unsurpassable, if not unequalled.
To Captain Tyrrell, of the North Montacute mine,
belongs the honour of this discovery, which was brought
to light by him out of a shaft undertaken for the dis-
covery of copper ore under his directions, for "The
Victoria Mining Company," in section No. 5,597, not
far from the celebrated Montacute Copper Mine.
The auriferous vein, which is described as " abouttwo
inches big," is composed of a rich ochreous gossan,
more or less intermingled with native gold, in various
forms, and of the utmost imaginable purity, some speci-
mens having the appearance of what is called "dead
gold," and many portions possessing a high degree of
brilliancy.
As may be supposed, this " crowning " discovery has
been the engrossing topic of the week, and the di-
rectors of the Victoria Mining Company, as elsewhere
named, after having instituted the necessary measures
to protect the property, and " guard the approaches,"
seem to have betaken themselves to the study of that
part of the royal statute entitled 5 William and Mary,
c. 6, sec. 2, in respect of whick interpretations unfavour-
able to the undisturbed possession of this treasure by the
associated proprietors have rather authoritatively gone
forth. Shares in the mine have been greatly in request,
and really as well as nominally at very high premium,
but until the relative position of the proprietors with re-
spect to this newly-discovered as well as unexpected
wealth is ascertained, no rational quotation for our min-
ing share market can be propounded.
At all events our fellow-colonists now have some.
thing more to contend for, and an increased value ought
to attach to those privileges and exemptions which dis-
tinguished their royal charter of colonial initiation, and
of which the British Minister of the day has endea-
voured to deprive us, by one of the grossest instances of
political fraud and scandalous hypocritical contravention
upon record.—Adelaide Observer.

BOROUGH HOP MARKET.

Owing in a great measure to the activity in the demand
at the large provincial fairs, the demand here for most kinds
of new Hops—selected qualities in particular—is very steady,
and, in some instances, the quotations have an upward ten-
dency. A few parties are estimating the duty at from
210,0001 to 220,0001.

CERTIFICATE.

" In a series of experiments made upon Clark, Mc Niel', and Co.'s
Patent Universal Gas Burner, its superiority was satisfactorily esta-
blished in economy and the quality of the light. Tested against
argand burners, Nos. 4 (12 holes), and 6 (15 holes), it afforded a
saving of at least 25 per cent., and against three fish-tail burners,
No. 4, 40 per cent. The colour and brilliancy of the flame is supe-
rior to any other burner."

SOUTH AUSTRALIA AND NEW

ZEALAND.

Sydney papers, received yesterday, furnish intelli-
gence to the end of April from New Zealand. The
Lieutenant-Governor had not attacked the natives at
Porirua, because it was doubtful whether the murderers
of the Gillespies were harboured among them. A large
military force was, however, stationed there, and the
district was proclaimed as being under martial law, ex-
cluding the town of Wellington. The Karori settlers
were afraid of an attack from the natives, but had been
promised adequate protection. A military road was to
be formed. A considerable number of the natives were
still in rebellion, but they were not committing any acts
of violence. A free pardon had been granted to Kumeti,
who was convicted of participating in the robberies at
the Hutt. The revenue of Wellington for the quarter
ending March 31st, was 7,8851., and the expenditure,
6,8471.

In New South Wales there had been most refreshing
rains, after a long period of drought that had run up
the prices of provisions, fodder, and fuel, to a very dear
rate. Wheat bad been 6s. 6d. per bushel ; but was
ss. 6d. to 6s. after the rain set in. The mercantile mar-
ket was good for imports generally, which continued to
sell at remunerating rates, the supply being moderate,
and as we hope, likely so to continue. The wool season
was over, but there were still purchasers for any quan-
tity. The boiling down of cattle was about to com-
mence, and there is likely to be a further attempt to
prepare soup fitted for English consumption. An ordi-
nance had just been passed for defraying the passage out
of children belonging to immigrants who reached the
colony prior to Jane 1842. A most determined gang
of bushrangers, headed by one Wilson, had been cap-
tured after a desperate conflict with the mounted police,
who appear to have acted admirably on the occasio*.
There were several lives lost, and the leader of the
gang was killed. The Crown Land Regulation Bill
was to come before the Legislature in a day after our
advices were dispatched, and caused some excitement at
Sydney.
From Port Philip the advices are extremely satisfac-
tory. They are dated to May 22. Business was brisk,
and the markets were steady. Money was plentiful;
great public improvements were being effected, and not
a single case was before the Insolvent Court, while both
the tailors and shoemakers were so well employed that
they had all struck for higher wages.
We have received files of the South Australian Register
and Adelaide Observer down to the 9th of May. The
following are interesting extracts

ROWING MATCH FOR TWO PAIRS OF SILVER
OARS.

A very spirited contest took place yesterday for two pairs
of silver oars, presented by ➢lessrs. Cownden and Wentzell,
the boat builders, to the frequenters of their establishment.
Notwithstanding the gloomy and unfavourable state of the
weather, there was a very large assemblage of spectators, and
the sport appeared to afford much gratification. The row
was in three heatF, with eight pairs of oars.
First Heat.

The distance was from the Ship, Fore-street, Lambeth, up

A very capital race was succeeded by stripe taking the lead,
followed by white. In rounding the upper boat white went
ahead and kept it. _

PERFECTION in LAMP OIL.—A PATENT.
CLARK'S PATENT SPERM OIL, only ss. per imperial
gallon, is bright as crystal in the coldest weather, and lasts longer
than real Sperm. It burns in all descriptions of Argand Lamps. The
great expense of Sperm Oil, and the trouble of common oils, can now
be dispensed with at pleasure. It is admirably suited for Solar
Lamps, as they will not want cleaning for years, and being so pure,
four gallons go as far as five gallons of any common oils ; so, in
reality, Clark's Patent Sperm Oil is cheapest. Families laying in
their stock of Spermaceti or Wax Candles, Soaps, &c. &c., will
positively save 30 per cent. is their outlay. This is no fiction, and
this system of equitable charges the public will support.
Samples sent in London, and list of prices, with description of the
patent article, sent on application to all parts of the world.

LEEDS, SEPTEMBER 26.

STOCK EXCHANGE.-There is a continued depression in the share

corn, the failure of the potato crop, and) the uneasy state of political

judicially, and we do not see any prospect of speedy improvement.

PRINCESS'S THEATRE.

Alas ! alas ! for the days of the original drama. A
new drama (at least what in these degenerate days is
called new) was produced here last night under the
name of Clarissa Harlowe. It is a transla-
tion from a French adaptation of a French
abridgment of Richardson's celebrated novel.
It is in three acts. The first act sets forth the
loves of Clarissa and Lovelace, and ends with the
elopement. The second act represents the attempt at
the seduction of Clarissa by Lovelace and her rescue
by Jack Macdonald ; and the third act represents the
death of Clarissa. The following is the east :
Mr. Harlowe .
Hr. Anthony Harlowe Mr. Paulo
James Harlowe
Mrs. Harlowe Mrs. Fosbroke
Clarissa Harlowe
Arabella Harlowe
Lovelace
M. Aonald
Mr. Smith
Joseph Mr. Oxberry
Mary
Mrs. Smith Miss Somers.
Charles Mathews was evidently overweighted in
Lovelace ; in the serious scenes his failure was pain-
fully apparent; and in the more joyous scenes, as, for
instance, the scene in the second act with his roue
companions, when it might have been expected that
his success would have been certain, there was no
buoyancy ; he was weighed down by the sense of
what he would have to do in the subsequent scenes,
and in those scenes his pathos was burlesque minus
the fun. Wallack is the only man on the stage who,
in the present day, could act Lovelace decently.
To do justice to the character would require an Ellis-
ton. Mrs. Stirling's Clarissa was beautiful exceed-
ingly. Throughout there was great power. In the
earlier scenes she was the simple trusting girl—in the
latter ones the indignant, and high-minded woman.
Circumstances acted as a forcing bed, and the girl
became a woman at once. It was a beautiful, a per-
fect, piece of acting. Her honours were shared
with her by Mr. H. Hughes, whose Jack Mac-
donald was very very fine. In the earlier scenes, as
the scamp about town, he exhibited a devil-me-care-
ism which was perfectly true to the character ; and
when the scamp discovers he has a heart—that the
scheme in which he is engaged is too bad even for
him—and that he, the rejected of all decent society, is
a more honest, a more true-hearted man than the
polished Lovelace, Mr. Hughes left nothing to be de-
sired. From what we have seen of Mr. H. Hughes
at the Surrey, whenever he has had a part worthy of
his talents, we had formed a high opinion of his
genius, and now that he has a field opened to him in
which he may prove himself an actor, he has
not disappointed us. We are rejoiced to see him at
the Princess's, and if he has a fair field, we venture to
prophesy that Mr. H. Hughes will prove himself, in
his own peculiar line, one of the first actors of the
day. Miss Marshall, as Mary, had little to do, but
that little she did excellently well. The piece was
admirably put on the stage, and was announced for
repetition every evening amidst the loud applause of
a crowded house.

BOROUGH AND SPITAMPIELDS.

There is an increased quantity of Potatoes on sale, and of
much betterquality than we have observed for some time past.
On the whole the demand is inactive, at prices varying from
21 103 to 6lper ton. A.few sacks have arrived from ilavre
in good condition; but they are offering at low prices.
Several cargoes are shortly expected from the north, and
which will, no doubt, test the actual value in these markets.
