EMIGRATION TO SOUTH AUSTRALIA.

The want of labour, and the superabundance of the
most nourishing food in South Australia, as compared
with the absolute starvation and excessive population. ex-
isting in numerous districts, both in England, and more
particularly Ireland, is a subject on which ourselves, and
the whole press of the empire, have constantly enlarged.
It is a subject of such vital importance at the present mo-
ment, when a termigant spirit is abroad, anxious for some
change from which the discontented and unemployed hope
to better their position, that it cannot be too closely
pressed home on the attention of government. The pos-
session by Britain, at such a time as the present, of a
territory at our antipodes as large as Europe, producing
everything necessary for the necessities, the comforts, and
the luxuries of civilised life, where millions might be
located, appearing only as a " drop in a bucket," and
where their presence would be felt only for good, appears
a divine coincidence to enable us to secure an asylum for
our starving thousands, and, at the same time, extend our
commerce, enliven our trade and manufactures, and place
us in such a position, that no man willing to labour with
fair remuneration need be idle. The only question which
naturally arises is, " How is free emigration, on a large
scale, to be carried out ? "—and this is answered in a
pamphlet from the pen of Mr. Waghorn, the celebrated
overland traveller, and just published by G. Mann, Corn-
hill, and Ridgway, Piccadilly. In this he recommends—
" Emigration upon the widest and broadest scale, for the
future prosperity of that happy land to which we belong,
and thereby help to realise the dispensations of an Al-
mighty Providence, through whom has been discovered a
fifth portion of the globe, where every plant under the
sun may be grown in its nurture to fruitfulness ; for
every one is kdigenous to Australia. If this be done at
all, to compass its ends, it must be done on the scale of
liberality ; yes, and genuine liberality ; and to begin it I
should, have parliament to vote immediately £20,000,000,
to, be appropriated and accounted for by a board of emi-
gration to be established for the purpose. This was the
met sum that my Lord John Russell succeeligi in getting

Jane 13, 1848.

from the then government, for the emancipation of slaver/
throughout the British West India colonies, &c. ;
therefore, I have fixed that amount towards the ameliora-
tion of Ireland, for sending the Irish to the colony of
Australia, and then sheep's carcases will not be thrown
upon the dunghills of that country, as often described in
the public press."
Lieutenant Waghorn, then recommends the following
plan for free emigration, on a liberal scale :—" At Or'
mouth, at Portsmouth, at Chatham, and at Sheerness;
are ships of war lying idle, most of them have all their'
masts, sails, and cordage ready in the stores at these
ports. I would commission every one of them that could
be Spared from the naval service, and with drafts of six
helmsmen, being gunners from her Majesty's ship EP'
cellent, at Portsmouth, incite stout Irishmen to um'
them (each• ship's crew, say six men to every 100 tons),
and I would send them to the Cove of Cork to receive
emigrants from that spot, for the purpose of being located,
at the government expense, in Australia."
Assuming that £2O would be sufficient for each adult,
half a million of Irish might be located, and with half the
proposed grant, or £10,000,000. The Australian Wool
trade has increased from a single bale of 250 lbs., a fee'
years since, to 21,000,000 lbs. in 1847 ; and, if labour be
adequately supplied, will, in ten years, amount
100,000,000 lbs.

Ireland has 300 persons, England 260, to each square
mile ; Australia has 12 square miles to each individual.
Australia has nearly the area of Europe, with the popula-
tion of Northumberland. In this country the people
press on the sources of subsistence ' • in Australia the food
presses upon the people. Ireland has 3,000,000 dependent
on charity for subsistence ; New South Wales has sub-
sistence for 3,000,000, with only 180,000 persons to con-
sume it. There they are languishing to obtain what we
are anxious to get rid of. Each groans under the burden,
'while disputing the right to bear it ; each prefers suffering
from the disease to paying the fee for the cure. Here,
there are districts where the land, rent free, would no.
afford 1 Ili. of meat a-week to each starving inhabitant.
In the Legislative Assembly of New South Wales, in the
month of Arne last, it was stated, that this year, "--no less
than 64,000,000 lbs. of meat would be wasted, suffrcient to
feed 1,100,000 of those poor people who were starving is
England and Ireland." In New South Wales, the peaPle
are 180,000, the cattle 2,000,000, the sheep 8,000,000,
being about 13" head of oxen and 50 sheep for each person.
The superabundance of food is wasted for want of mouthsr
the corn is shed for lack of reapers, the wool is injured for
want of shearers-, and, consequently, all descriptions-of
produce either perish or are greatly depreciated, hotly its
quality and value. Herds of cattle and flocks of sheep are
"boiled down" for tallow there, while thousands are fa.
mishing for want of food here ; there meat is wasting, here
men are wasting. fluman skeletons pine here for what dogs'
reject there. The balance between food and populations'
unequal at home; it is unequal in New South Wales,
but it is the other way. In like manner, the scales of
labour and employment are uneven here ; they are as un-
even at the antipodes, but in the opposite direction : here
labour is too plentiful, there it is as much too scarce. We
have tried, and failed to bring the food to the starving
man—therefore, convey the starving man to his food, the
labourer to his hire, and you may restore the lost balance; •
In Ireland, a scanty meal, at 2d. or 22d.per day was doled
out to sustain life ' • in New South Wales, the unskilled
labourer, full fed with ample rations, supplied with a
dwelling and garden, found in tea, sugar, milk, and to;
bacco, disdains to work under 2s. 6d. a-day besides. If
destitution causes crime here, affluence leads to the sans@
result there. Want here and abundance there, scarcity
and superfluity of labour—opposite extremes—end alike
in vice, indolence, insubordination, and social disorder.
Such is the spirit of Mr. Waghorn's plan and remarks,
and by such a systcm, carried out with spirit and liberalitr
and certain regulations for repayment, it is highly probable.
that,. in from ten to twenty years, the whole amount would.
be refunded.

Lord Ranelagh suggests, in a letter to the Times, that,'
by way of reprisal for the expulsion of Sir H. L. Bulive,r.
from Spain, the British government should seize and
sequestrate the Havannah and Manilla in liquidation of
loans now of so much moment to the distressed capitalists
of France and England.
The total number of petitions presented to parliament,
up to the 30th May, in favour of a repeal of the Naviga-
tion Laws was nine, and the total number of signatures
was 2,268. The total number of petitions presented
against the repeal of those laws, and praying the house t°
refuse its sanction to any alteration subversive of the
nrinciples on which they are founded was 91, and the
signatures appended amounted t 0•32,908.
A THIEF DETECTED BY A PARROT.—A' thief was
detected in a singular manner, in this city, on Tuesday
last. Mrs. Fisher, flour dealer, of Northgate-street,
whilst in the parlour adjoining her shop, was startled by is
parrot which she keeps in her shop, loudly calling " Shop'
Fisher, shop," and hastened into her shop to see whs'
was the matter. Not perceiving any person there, boa'
ever, she was about again to return to the parlour, whet'
the parrot again commenced screaming and repeating its
firmer words. Mrs. Fisher, thereupon conceiving that
there must be some cause for the extraordinary cries,
of the bird, walked round the shop, and on the inside 0'
the counter, close to the till, she discovered a little urchin'
about eight years old, crouching down to escape notice.
He had opened the till, and had 44(1. in coppers, inhis
hands, which he had stolen from it. A policeman W 5
sent for who recognised the boy as a common thief.—

OUR MANUFACTURES IN SINGAPORE.—It appears verY
problematical whether British trade is likely to suffer verY
materially by foreign competition. A gentleman interested
in the continental trade observed, at the close of the year
1846 :—" Of Swiss and German cotton piece goods seve—
ral foreign arrivals took place, and among them were
invoices of a very inferior description. It is a sing
tuar
and deplorable fact that the Swiss dyers and printeers, ?9
also the weavers, are, without exception, in the sam staf.
of perfection in their articles as they were ten years sinc`
whereas the English and Scottish manufacturers I:.
made rapid progress in the art of dyeing and Printlenie-d r '
The Glasgow houses now send as beautiful Turkey
cloth as ever arrived from Turkey, and this cloth is so
ia
at 4 dols. 65c. per piece. It is doubtful if a Swiss house
could sell at that rate without a loss. Again, Turkey red
p• inted shawls, 33 inches square, Glasgow manufacturer
a 'll at 24- dollars per dozen, and as most of the Swiss
i nports are not better in quality, the holders Tra S:: °f
necessity come down to that price in order to realise.
This leaves an actual loss to shippers. The Turkey red
Glasgow dyed twist is, if not quite, almost as good as the
dye, and may be wild, with a good profit, at
about 5 per cent. lower prices." The same individual,
who draws a very glowing picture of the foreign tradei
adds :—" The amount of common German glass
' ana,
hardware, cotton goods, and coloured twist is enormous;;
and even the auction rooms refuse at last their servites-

DELIGHTS OF A CANADIAN HOTEL.—After a fOrtllig?t'!

HULL CORN MARKET, JUNE a

There was a very languid market to-day, and a reduction of
Is. to 2s. per quarter on Wheat was reluctantly submitted to.
Beans, Barley, and Oats were dull sale, and each the turn
lower. Linseed Cakes support last currency. Other articles
as before.
