Gs> The London correspondents of the N. Y.
Commercial Advertiser, under date of the 9th inst
writes as follows:
The grant of Vancouver's Island to the Hudson's
Bay Company has been completed, and the COM
pany have advertised the terms upon which they
invite emigrants. According to the stipulations of
the grant, all profits from sales of land or the work
lng OF minerals, beyond ten per cent, to be ap-
piled to the colonization and improvement of the
island. The price of the land is fixed by the COM
pany at I'll per acre, and it may be purchased in
lots as small as twenty acres. Little at present is
known of the island, but the company have had,
for the last two or three years, a station at the
Southern end of it, and the reports of the harbors
soil, climate and natural productions obtained from
this spot are extremely promising The coal is at
the northern part and exists apparently in the most
accessible form and in unlimited abundance. Under
these circumstances, looking the California move
ment and the certainty OF an extension, almost
magical IN its suddenness, of steam navigation over
the Pacific it is impossible not to anticipate thatVan-
couver's Island may rise into singular Importance
The plan long advocated by Mr.. Enderby, to
whom Government some years back made grant
of the Auckland Islands, discovered by vessel be-
longing to his firm, for reestabshing the southern
whale fishery, with those islands as station is also
about to be carried out forthwith During the rail
way mania it was impossible to obtain attention to
the scheme, but it has at length received the aen-
ton it deserved, and a company is now in process
OF completion with the requisite capital. Mr. En-
derby will himself proceed forthwith to the scene
of OF eratons
The Eastern Archipelago Company for working
the coal mines of Labuan, and for opening the re-
sources Of that colony and of Borneo also promises
speedily to make commencement. According to
the last advices from Labuan the colony still suf-
tered from the sickness inevitable to all new places
but with proper precautions the danger was not Sc
rlous. The first number of the Labuan Gazette
had just been issued, notifying, among other things,
the appointment of James Hosken, Esq, r. n,
master attendant and postmaster, to be one of her
Majestys justices of the peace for the colony. To
many New York readers it will prove gratifying to
hear In this way of an old friend.
