WEDNESDAY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
We have received Sydney papers to the Ist of May. 'The
following are extracts:—
"The Moffat, prison-ship, which has arrived at Hobart
Town, brings despatches, we understand, from Lord Glenelg,
conveying the' very unsatisfactory information that emigra-
tion is to cease to Van Diemen's Land, but that transporta-
tion is to be continued hither upon an extended scale. An
emigrant ship laden for this colony has been countermanded.
We suppose New South Wales is no longer a penal settle-
ment.
" A letter received in town a few days ago from Kikg
George's Sound, gives a pitiable account of the indolence of
the residents of that settlement, and of the deplorable, state-
of the place in general."
Letters from Valparaiso of the 30th of May state " that the
blockade of Lima has been established, but on the other side
General Santa Cruz has officially notified to the foreign con-
suls that the enemy's ports will be blockaded on the 20th of
August, which will be undertaken with the ships purchased
at Baltimore. On the 15th of May General Santa Cruz was
at Auguero. The commerce of Peru was prosperous; they
were going to export a considerable quantity of wool and
cotton. A ship laden with mercury had arrived at Arica,
and it was generally expected that in the following six
months five millions of dultais would be coined in the mints
of Lima, Cusco, and Potosi."

New Brunswick papers to the 17th of August, and Hali-
fax to the 21st, have arrived. The former are barren of in-
telligence,. the' latter mention that his Excellency Lieut.
General Sir Colin Campbell bad left Halifax to visit the
Earl of Durham, and that the government of Nova Scotia,
during his absence, would devolve upon Lieut. Colonel
Snodgrass.

TUESDAY EVENING

By the advices from Hamburgh the price of gold is 4363+
per mark, which, at the English Mint price of £3 17s 101 d
the ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 13. 10,
and the exchange at Hamburgh on London at short being
13. 9. it follows that gold is 0.81 per cent. dearer at Ham-
purgh than in London.
The premium on gold at Paris is 71 per raille, which, at
the English Mint price of 1:3 lis 1034 d the ounce for standard
gold,gives an exchange of 25. 31; and the exchange at Paris
on London at short being 25. 42', it follows that gold is 0.34
per cent. lower in Paris than in London.
The course of exchange at New York on London is 1091
per cent., and the par of exchange between England and
America being 109.23.40 per cent., it follows that the ex-
change is .07 per cents. against England.
