graph Fleet.

The Asia, from Liverpool, on the 18th,
was boarded OF Cape Race, by the yacht
Of the Associated Press, on the goth. The
news is very interesting.
THE TELEGRAPH FLEET
Took its final departure under sail from
Plymouth on Thursday, the 10th inst. The
Asia did not pass the feet near enough TO
speak any of the steamers, but the weather
is understood to be favorable for submerg-
ing the cable. The feet expected to reach
mid-ocean the 10Th inst, and we shall prob.
ably hear OF the arrival Of the Niagara at
Trinity Bay on or about the 29th inst
The Agamemnon was towed out OF Ply
mouth Sound at Q o'clock. The squadron
subsequently started under canvass with a
northerly breeze.
The Government will dispatch steamer
to Trinity Bay to pilot in the Niagara, as
near as practicable, to the point where it is
decided to land the cable. The Niagara
is expected momentarily on and after next
week, but, from the fact that the fleet would
use no steam in reaching the middle of the
Atlantic, it is quite possible that the Mag
ara will not reach the Atlantic coast before
the first of July The telegraph Office at
st. Johns, n. +. has been placed in connec.
ton with the Office at Trinity Bay, and it is
understood that the Telegraph Company
will place their wires thence TO New York
at the service of the press and the public
for the transmission Of such communications
connected with the great event as may be
handed in for few days subsequent to the
arrival of the Niagara.
A new weekly line Of steamers has been
formed between England and the United
States. The Indiap Empire was to have
left Galway, on the west coast of Ireland,
for Halifax and New York, on Friday the
10th instant. She expected to run from
Galway to New York in eight days.
The terms upon which the Cagliarra af-
fair has been settled, are as follows: Naples
agrees to compensate the English engineer
with 5000 pounds to place the Cagliarra, at
the disposal Of Queen Victoria, and to lib
crate the Sandman prisoners forthwith.
The warike preparations going on in
France, attracted the attention Of the Eng.
lish press and Parliament. In the House OF
Commons, Mr.. DIsraelli repudiated all ideas
of danger ola war with France, and said the
relation OF the two powers we're Of the most
amicable nature.
Mr.. Fitzgerald had stated in the House Of
Commons that Mr.. Mason, the American
Minister at Paris, had labored under grave
misapprehensons in representing England
as acquiescing in the free labor movement
The Bank of France had increased its
specie nearly 100000 france in month.

Money Natter.

The n. Y. Journal OF the 18th, gives the
following in relation to money, exchange,
discounts, &c.
Notwithstanding the large amounts Of
money taken up by the Government, there is
such an excess Of supply, owing to the with
drawal Of capital from trade, and the depre-
citation Of prices Of both securities and com
modities requiring less capital to deal in
them, that the surplus is not at all likely TO
be absorbed any time this year. Produce
Is coming forward more literally, and is ex.
ported more freely at low prices. There is
less disposition to hoard up produce, which
Of itself Is significant Of a prolonged easy
condition Of the money market.
The money wants Of trade are very cir
cumscribed. Uncurrent money is in con.
traeted circulation, the country banks not
being able TO place it, or keep their currency
ont for any length of time. The city circu-
lation is million less than it was this time
last year. The following comparison be.
tween the financial business of the present
time, and Of the corresponding time of the
last year tells striking tale Of contracted
industry

JURISDICTION OF Justices CoURTs.-The Nescs,
printed at Murphy's Camp, argues in favor of
more extended jurisdiction in Justices Courts,
and says:
At present, the only purpose for which Justi-
oes' courts are affective is the collection of small
debts, and the preservation of the peace: and
their power for this last is not little impaired
by the slight estimation and place which they
hold in the public eve-the result OF the system
Of encroachment on their powers invariably pur-
sued by the Supreme Court Of the State for the
last five years, until they are at last reduced to a
state of perfect impotency for all valuable pur-
poses. 1t may be seen at a glance. that with a
jurisdiction narrowed down to subjects of contro-
versy, not exceeding $500 in value, they are
powerless to adiudicate upon difficulties arising
out Of the settlement of mining claims-the most
important interests, OF course, of our mining
localities. The holder of a mining claim which,
by the system now in force, cannot be proven to
be worth more than 5000, will not be in much
danger Of being troubled by other claimants; for
it would not be worth jumping and indeed it is
not worth working at all. The experience Of all
miners will go to show that the very fact Of the
right to mining claim being contested is primd
fdcie evidence that its value will inevitably re
move it from the jurisdiction of a Justices court
The result is, that every suit involving the pos
session Of mining claim is attended with an
expense which in very few cases. either litigant
is able to incur and it is almost invariably the
case that it is upon the lawful owner Of the ground
in dispute that the burthen presses most heavily
for, as nearly every dispute about mining claims
arises from what in mining parance is termed
jumping, so the jumper is generally found to be
a man of no means or responsibility, and there
FORE whether the bona fide litgant wins or loses,
he is equally certain to be muctcd in heavy costs
