It is however some consolation to know, that Her Majesty is quite young enough to lead us (o hopo belter ihings next lime -as the hirth of a Princess is not « muller of very great interest to the Empire.

(Fiom the Court Jcwnal. Her Majesty was taken unwell at an early hour on Saturday morning', and the medical gentlemen wvra in const quenco summoned to .Buckingham Pal.ire. The Due'ess of Kent was sent for at half past eight o'clock by his Royal Highness Pi ince Albert.

Some of the Cabinet iVinisters and greal officers of state arrived before twelve o'clock, and between twelve and one o'cloek tho Arch- bishop of Canterbury and ihe Bishop of Lon- don arrived at the Palace. ii or Majesly was safely delivered of a Prin- cess at ten minutes before two o'clock, p. m. Their Rojal Highnesses Prince Albert and the .Duchess of Kent were in the room at the lime, Jogelher with Sir James Clark, Dr. Locock, Dr. Ferguson, and Air.

Information of the auspicious event was de- spatched by n messenger to Her Majesty the Queen Dowager, at Sudbury-halt ; uiid one of the equerries in wailing conveyed tho joyful intelligence to the Royal Family in town.

The l.'hrl of Uxbridge, Lord Chamberlain of her Majesty's household, also attended at the palace yesterday forenoon. The following is a copy of the Gazette, pub- lished on Saturday night, and despatched by mails to all paris of the kingdom : - "London Gazette Extraordinary :-Sa- turday, November 21, 1840. Buckingham Palace, Nov. 21.

Her Majesty and llio young Princess are, God lie praised, both doing well." ejlM^ajcsagaimwi^a-Hw ECS'-STPT, . Tue Intest extracts from the English journal«, though rallier inconclusive in their statements, [ead us to believe that Ali Pacha, the tyrant of Egypt has at length had his eyes opened to the folly of contending against the all but united force of Europe, by, it is said, submilting him- self lo ihe Allies. This if true, is the-only masterly stroke of policy the Pacha had made sinco the commencement of hostilities. ' We doubt much if this submission comes in suffi- cient lime to avert ihe downfal of the Usurper and his dymsty from the throne of Egypt. The Allies aro now triumphant-Ibrahim Pacho with the rebel Pachas and Emirs of Syria, have been driven from every tenable post in that province, and the whole country, with the exception of one or two forts, lind once more acknowlcded the authority of the Sublime Porte. The Egyptians had in Syria not only in contend with the irresistible discipline of European warfare, hut the unquenchable hatred of tho Native?, who after the taking of Iieyrout, deserted the standard of lb alum and ranged themselves in thousands under the crescent. This is not to he wondered at,, when wo take into consideration the horrid cruellies practiced upon the wretched serfs of Syria, hy tho im- placable Ibrahim and his bloodthirsfj' myrmi- dons. It would certainly reflect eternal honour on the EnglMi nation, were they now, after driving the Egyptians from Syria, to give that country, something moro than the semblance of liberty for we mtiit confess that it will make lillie difference whether the Sultan or Ali rule in Syri.:, ¡ferber are lo dictate to that miserable country. It is the duly of tho Allies to make it a Sine qua non with the Sublime Porte, to give ihe Syrians under certain restric- tions the management of their own affairs, and break the galling chains that for centuries the Pachas of the Sultan have rivetted on the.un- happy nativrs of Asia minor. If after bringing Ali to his senses, this line of policy is not pursued, the great eifusijn of blood and the vast outlay of treasure shall have been spent in vain. THE DEFEAT OF 1UUAIIIM PASHA. me pitched baltic with Ibrahim Pasha af- forded an excellent opportunity to BIIOW the bravery and fidelity of tho Turks. Ibrahim had taken up a ver}* strong position near Bey rout willi 3,000 men, 4,000 Turks were sent against him under ihe command of Sel im Pasha, assisted by General Jockmtis, Commodore Napier, and Colonel Hodges. The atlack was II. nt so impetuous ihal in a few minutes Ibrahim wa*¡ completely routed 1.000 Hnyptinus were made prisoners, the rest wen« killed and wounded or, look to flight. Willi -respect to (he general war, the Egyptian armv. at the most moderate ("tlcnhuion, has lo«t 20,000 in killed, wounded, prisoner«, and doner ers.

If Mehemet Ali have, as above slated, sub- mitted lo ihe diclum of the Allies, ihe arrival in London of Prince Esteihnzy will be imme- diately followed by negotiations on a more ex- tended subject-the gem ral peace of Europe which the quarrel of (lie Porte and the Viet roy was so near compromising. Tliat Ihe Prince should not havo taken Paris in his way io London, (as the King of the French had a promise ili.il he would do,) has, Í am assured, given lo bia Majesly much pain.

We are heartily disgusted at this subject being so long lbru:«t in our path ; we hope that the day is not far distant, when that anti-English feeling, which now corrupts every departmenl of the State, will meet willi its an lidote in a return lo power of mt« enibued with genuine Brilú-h feelings. The emigrants by the Portland appear lo be of a much superior class to those by the Brothers', but this in a certain degree is to bo ascribed to the lengthy passage the latter ship made, being almost six months from Liverpool, and during the latter part of their voyage, would have been forced to put in to Port Phillip, the government al lowanco heing expended, had not the caplain, who appears to be a great favorite, broken on the ship's stores, and ihus saved himself and those under his care, the annoyance of a further procrastination of tho voyage. All day yester- day anti Thursday the various vessels were thronged with settlers or their agtuls, and mas- ter tradesmen engaging hands. We have no doubt from the eng« mess that is shown for obtaining laborers, that before a couple of days pas?, scarcely an emigrant will bo unengaged. DR. LANG.-The fiev. Dr. Lang arrived here last Thursday by the ship Portland /mm Plymouth. Wo congratulate the Rev. gentle- man on his arrival once more in that land to which he has ever been zsalnusly, and in strict candour we must say, disinterestedly attached. We trust his arrival will hasten the adjustment of those points at issue between the two con- tending bodies of Presbyterians-this is a con- summation most earnestly to be desired, and we hone the learned Dr. mil use his ponerful abilities to still the troubled waters that agitate the grave dignitaries of the Kirk. ?*' TESTIMONIAL TO ROOKH Tirnnnv, ESQ. On Thursday evening last about forty of (he admirers of this gentleman met nt ihe Old Court House, Castlereagh-street, to take into consideration the propriety of presenting him willi a servico of plate on his retirement from tho «flicc of Commissioner of the Court of Requests, which he lins filled to the entire salis faction of the great majority of the people, for the long period of eleven years. The speeches, though good in spiiit, wen- merely laudatory of Mr. Therry, and which our readers will take on credit ; they had one effect, however, as be- tween £G0 and £00 were, before Ihe meeting dismissed, subscribed for the purpose of pre senting Mr. Therry with a testimonial of their esteem. It was suggested and agreed to, to receive the smallest sums, to enable all parlies, especially those who had been bonefítted by Mr. Therry's judicious decisions, to have an opportunity of showing the value of the impor- tant services he for so longa time rendered tho commnnity. Many no doubt will subscribe to this offering, from other motives, viz., from personal friendship, and others us Mr. Calla- ghan did, because Mr. Therry is an Irishman. KANGAROO STEAMER.-This boat notwith- standing the great outcry that was made of her having Mislniuud considerable injury, resumes, nt the beginning of the week, her trips to and from Parramatta, Wa bog to apprise those of our readers who purpose attending the sale of the schooner Ora tavo,'by Foss and Lloyd, this (lay, that the hour of sale is altered from li toi o'clock in this dav's advertisement.

HINT TO THE DIUPKIH AXD GIIOCEIIS OF SYDNEY.- It has been publicly announced by the grocers, &c, of Melbourne, that ihey have I resolved to shut their establishments each night with the exception of Sal «rd ay at eight o'olcok, p. m., to allow the young men in I heir em plovment some relaxation after their daily toil. This resolution of the tradesmen of Melbourne reflects great credit upon them ; welrustit will have a corresponding eff ct upon their Sydney brethren, who seem pertinaciously 1>. tit upon slicking to the old horse-killing hours. These gentlemen should should recollent that, they were once shopmen themselves, and have a utile commisseration on those in their employ- ment, by relaxinga lillie. We foul convinced that were they to adopt the system of shutting at eight in the evenings, they would transact the same Amount of business they now do, and « ilhiil get on iii their business belter, as their young men, by ibis indulgence, would enter more warmly into the interests of their em- ployers, particularly when llioy saw they wore treated in a humane and rational way. What we ask, are the Drapers' Association about, that I hey have allowed this subject to full lo the ground. MUTINY ON Bo.inn THE BROTHERS.- A few days after this ship left the Cape of Good Hope, the sailors having conspired, refused lo a man to perform their duly, besides offoriug the grossest abuse to the captain and officers. The captain, determining not to submit to his refractory men, with the assistance of ¿i feiv of the emigrants, succeeded in overpowering, and placing in ¡rons the whole ofthe "mutineers; forf.iui'ieon days he kept thom in close confine- ment, and by the aid of his passengers was forlunu'e enough to navigate his ship willi com paralive case; on solemn promises of amend- ment and ex pressing the utmost regret for their conduct, the prisoners were released, and returned lo-duty. Yes ie rd a j* the ismc insub- ordinate conduct broke out amongst them, and we were told that both Cupiains Innes and Brown, wt.nl on bonni the Brothers ¡o iuves ligaie the causes of dispute between the captain and them. Wo li ive not yet heard the result. RAPE.-Ytstejpdny a wretch of the name of Etios Dillon, was charged before the Police Magistrate,' with that must bçasily of all crimes, rape, upon the person of a child aged scarcely eight years; the prisoner was remanded until to day. Wo forbear ¡living or commenting «pou the evidence already deposed to, until we can lay the whole facts »f tho case before the public, suffice it at present to «¡ay, that the prevalence ol'this crime in the Colony is not n whit lessened by ibu example of ihe capital punishment of u beary scoundrel who was trinity of a similar oiYiMie.e, and who justly for- feited his lile on ihe scaffold some weeks ago. Pot.icr. OincE.- In 'his Court, yesterday, the usual routine of cases -fin* petty theft, d'.'unk'enne**. &c, were disposed ; there was one case of i ape remanded tor further evidence. A young child wa* hrnuitht up-charge i willi stealing sugar, she wa- «caro !y nine years old, anti being her first offence, she was discharged willi a reprimand.

Scraps ÎÏOÏ» tbo Siifo of îligriluni STuxmzäos, Esq. CHAP. T. With all the ardent and buoyant feelings of a youthful fancy of speedily realising an indo pendency in a foreign country, 1 determined, in the wandering spirit of my countrymen, to leave " those bonny hills and dales" where oft my boyish footsteps wandered.; accordingly, with a throbbing hean, I divulged my inten- tions to the aged couple. I need not tiweli on Üic agonizing feeling? of my family, or it)}' own oft-bursting henri ; (ivory fond recollection then awakened within me a< if to add to my misery ; tho'.e only can sympathise with mo who have lelt their native country lo be ¡teparar.d from all they hold dear most likely for ever. I soon an ¡veil at Greenock, and look my passage for Sydney along wiih 320 others. Monday, the loth July, 163-, was die day appointed for us to sail ; that day, (lie sailors sang their song, the anchor wai weighed, and in a few minutes we were gliding down ihe noble Clyde. 1 looked towards ihe quays indUtinctly, they were crowded with poople prompted either by affection or curiosity; again, they were Io*t to view ; night drew her s-luuly mantle around u«. " Farewell, then Scotia,"! muttered to myself, " a long farewell." At early dawn the next morning I hurried on my dollies, sprung upon deck, and from tho unfavorable winds of the night I could see Erin's green hills in the distance ere they had yet disappeared, I called our little Highland piper from below ; Brown, I said, give us " Lochaber no more." Many a Highland heart sunk while that plaintive air was playing ; all, indeed, were sensibly affected. I could .not but observe now for the first lime, that thero wore too many human beings huddled together, considering the size of our ship, disease must bo the inevitable consequence thought I; no doubt, however, the principal supercargo looked forward with pleasure to the day when he should receive his Government price per head for his ship load of emigranfs. I shall not attempt to describe the admirable confusion that reigned on board for some days; the women, of course, were not silent, some cried " the biscuit was bail," some " could not take lea without milk," and others said " thoy must have fresh meat," poor people, they did not yet know what all they had to encounter ero they reached New South Wales. A iong sea voyage is the best specific I know of for bringing out the secret weakness of every person, and' I would advise those lovers who are rather ^doubtful of the tempers of each/other, that they should take such a Iii;», and I am confident they will see such a change take placeas could only be found out a week after marriage. Here wo were then all sorts and sizes, marri, d and unmarried, stingy calculating old bachelors and natty old maids, tolerably good looking and tolerably ugly women ; there were also men who exceeded the license of their sex for ugliness, willi a few of those bipeds that cannot be described. A change came o'er " the spirit of their dream," however, s'-a sickness came upon them ; now all was still except an occasional groan now and then, or ihe seamen'B tramp on the deck ; for the first time I could hear our crazy barque dashing through the waves, and the pattering of thereof points on the sails, nbout forty of my fellow passengers Ieanetl iuintishly on the gunwale as if admit ing '¡'he deep blue sea, under a dtizzling rain, anti others lay stretched on the hen coops, altogether tho scene was in- finitely more amusing to me (han I could have before imagined. This picture did not last long, all was uproar and confusion as before, and continued so to the end ol' the chapter. I must say, a sea voiage of half the length of ours is exceedingly dull, tiresome, and monoto- nous throughout, with few varied incidents to annken us from our languid thoughts. One soon tires of beholding nothing but the sea below, and the sky above, though we have seen their beauticF, and have felt their charms. {To be Continued J vtAifwtaain jiiiiviMtfiii.»uau«iaMJi>KTi<wua8<aiMBBiaiaauaB» Original Correspondence.

Pi Our files of South Australian journals reach to the 3rd Feb. They conlain nothing of any great public interest, unless tho fuot that Gover nor Gawler has fallen into no little disrepute with the Colonisls not so much on account of ihe reckless expenditure he ha* incurred, which it must be allowed has aroused the just anger of the self-supporting colonization schemets, as on account of several arbitrary and petty acts of tyranny against private individuals. The press are pouring the vials of their wrath on his head, and It must be apparent to every one that his remaining as Governor could not much longtr be protracted, Tito South Australians, it ap- pears, have not heard that C donel Gawler hag been recalled, though currently reported here. Trade is exceedingly dull; money is scarce; and, to crown the desponding fit of our neigh, boars, no emigrants, no goods, and no capital- ists are aiming to vary the sad monotony of their lives. Ina late publication,¡a referring to the I'roteclorsof the Aborigines at Port Phillip," we expressed our opinions of the perfect innti lity of such a class of persons as the)' were. Oar brethren of Sou h Australia seem io view the subject in the same light as we do, and state that the Protectorship, as at present conducted, is worse than useless; but let the Register give his own opinion. The other extracts are liom ihe South. Australian.. THE NATIVES.-We direct particular atten- tion to a report by Mr, 'reichelmann, one of ti e German Missionaries, on the sute of the abori- gines. W any thing were wanting to confirm our previous impressions, as well with regard to the capabilities of the natives themselves, as of the total inadequacy of the measures hitheno adopted towards tlicm, this report would supply the deficiency. Wo know Mr. 'reichelmann lo be an amiable and excellent individual-but it U self-evident thnt ho has begun at the wrong end, and that no attempt to chiliz» (he natives or io teach them the doctrines of Christianity before ho has taught them to dig, can bo other- wise than a dead failure. What the Protector is about wo know not. "The park lands are swarming with natives, mujer no controul, who are a nuisance and a prst to the v.hole cotnmu nify. TJim they are allowed to enter Adelaide at all, appeals lo na to be a sad neglect of the proper business of the Protector, who has over- looked the principle laid down by the Secretary of Slate, wi'h reference to the duties of hi« office, namely, ?" To attend the aborigines in their movements from place to place, until they can be induced lo assume more settled habits of life." The South Australian Protector has very different notions, and, according to our view, is fairly amenable to the charge brought agaiu-t hil» brethren of Port Phillip by His Excellency Sir George Gipps, of " bestirring themselves in their proper avocations very little, and instead of going to the aborigines, the aborigines are brought to them at Melbourne (Adelaide), where, as easily might have been foreseen, they became the prey of new diseases, and learned, new vicrs." ¿ The Protectorship, in short, as at present . conducted, is wore than useless. It is a shal- , low pretext merely for asserting in England that t something is doing for the natives, while, in fact, [( nothing whatever is done either towards iheir | improvement or civilization. | ROBERT THOMAS, ESQ.-Mr. I». Thomas, of n the firm of Messrs. Robert Thoms« & Co , ?ails ". this morning, in the Lalla Rookh, Ihr London. Tho object of Mr. Thorms's tiiit to England, f is to obtain redress for the tyrannical coutiui t » of Governor Gawler in depriving Messrs Tho- e mas & Co. of the Colonial printing, in violation it of lheir agreement previous to settling in the j province, and of his illegally pirating tho South \ Aubtralian Gazette, the property of Messrs.'j Thomas & Co.

MR. S. B, GARRETT.-The sudden disap- pearance of this gentleman from Adelaide during the past week, has caused no littlo consternation and surprise. It is generally re- ported that he has left the colony in the Royal Admira1, which vessel sailed for Batavia on Wednesday la«t. Some, however, think that he may have only proceeded in her to Kangaroo Island-while others fear he may luve been drowned in landing from the vessel in Holdfast Bay. Amidst this uncertainty, it is difficult to arrive at an opinion ; the more general belief, however, is, that ho has left the colony, although for what tcason he should have done so it is hatd to conjecture, as we aro informed he has left sufficient property to cover all demands against bim in the colony, so far as is yd ascertained.

regret to say, disappoint theexpectations of the

that Her Majesty is quite young enough to

ECS'-STPT,

. Tue Intest extracts from the English journal«,

thoughrallier inconclusive in their statements,

[ead us to believe that Ali Pacha, the tyrant of

Egypt has at length had his eyes opened to the

folly of contending against the all but united

force of Europe, by, it is said, submilting him-

self lo ihe Allies. This if true, is the-only

masterly stroke of policy the Pacha had made

sinco the commencement of hostilities.'

We

doubt much if this submission comes in suffi-

cient lime to avert ihe downfal of the Usurperand his dymsty from the throne of Egypt.The Allies aro now triumphant-IbrahimPacho with the rebel Pachas and Emirs of

Syria, have been driven from every tenable

post in that province, and the wholecountry,

with theexception of one or two forts, lind once

more acknowlcded the authority of the Sublime

Porte. The Egyptians had in Syria not onlyin contend with the irresistible discipline of

European warfare, hut the unquenchable hatred

of tho Native?, who after the taking of Iieyrout,

deserted the standard of lb alum andranged

themselves in thousands under the crescent.

This is not to he wondered at,, when wo take

into consideration the horrid cruellies practiced

upon the wretched serfs of Syria, hy tho im-

placable Ibrahim and hisbloodthirsfj' myrmi-

dons. It would certainly reflect eternal honour

on the EnglMi nation, were they now, after

drivingthe Egyptians from

Syria, to give that

country, something moro than the semblanceof liberty for we mtiit confess that it will

make lillie difference whether the Sultan or

Ali rule in Syri.:, ¡ferber are lo dictate to that

miserable country. It is the duly of tho Allies

to make it a Sine qua non with the Sublime

Porte, togive ihe Syrians under certain restric-

tions the management of their own affairs, and

break the galling chains that for centuries the

Pachas of the Sultan have rivetted onthe.un-

happy nativrs of Asia minor. If after bringingAli to his senses, this line of policy is not

pursued, thegreat eifusijn of blood and the

vast outlay of treasure shall have been spent invain.

bravery and fidelity of tho Turks. Ibrahimhad taken up a ver}* strong position near Beyrout willi 3,000 men, 4,000 Turks were sent

EMIGRANTS -On Thursday Ia«t, we receivedan adtliii'in of 841 person* to our popu-lation, which is more, if .ivajvc»Ilect nrüht,(han ever "arrived in onWday»oti these shores,*these emigrants are," the greatmaj-iriiy offheni, [rieb Roman

Oa-helios; this fact ofitself speaks volumes, mid bhctvs the under-hand influence that deters the Scotch and

linglish mechanic and peasant from coming lothis Colony. We are heartily disgusted at this

subject being so long lbru:«t in ourpath ; we

hope that the day is not far distant, when that

anti-English feeling, which now corrupts everydepartmenl of the State, will meet willi its an

lidote in a return lo power of mt« enibued with

genuine Brilú-hfeelings. The emigrants by

the Portland appear lo be of a muchsuperior

class to those by the Brothers', but this in a

certain degree is to bo ascribed to thelengthy

passage the latter ship made, being almost sixmonths from

Liverpool, and during the latter

part of their voyage, would have been forcedto put in to Port

Phillip, the government al

lowanco heing expended, had not thecaplain,

who appears to be agreat favorite, broken on the

ship's stores, and ihus saved himself and thoseunder his care, the annoyance of a further

procrastination of tho voyage. All day yester-day anti Thursday the various vessels were

thronged with settlers or theiragtuls, and mas-

ter tradesmen engaging hands. We have no

doubt from theeng« mess that is shown for

obtaining laborers, that before acouple of days

pas?, scarcelyan

emigrant will bo unengaged. 1DR. LANG.-The fiev. Dr. Lang arrived

here last Thursday by theship Portland /mm

Plymouth. Wocongratulate the Rev. gentle-

man on his arrival once more in that land towhich he has ever been

zsalnusly, and in strictcandour we must say, disinterestedly attached.We trust his arrival will hasten the adjustmentof those

points at issue between the two con-

tending bodies of Presbyterians-this is a con-

summation most earnestly to be desired, andwe hone the learned Dr. mil use his ponerfulabilities to still the troubled waters that agitatethe grave dignitaries of the Kirk. ?*'

TESTIMONIAL TO ROOKH Tirnnnv, ESQ.On Thursday evening last about

forty of (headmirers of this gentleman met nt ihe OldCourt House, Castlereagh-street, to take intoconsideration the

propriety ofpresenting him

willi a servico of plate on his retirement fromtho «flicc of Commissioner of the Court of

Requests, which he lins filled to the entire salisfaction of the great majority of the

people, forthe long period of eleven years. The

speeches,though good in spiiit, wen-

merely laudatory ofMr. Therry, and which our readers will takeon credit ; they had one effect, however, as be-tween £G0 and £00 were, before Ihe

meetingdismissed, subscribed for the purpose of

presenting Mr. Therry with a testimonial of theiresteem. It was

suggested and agreed to, toreceive the smallest sums, to enable all

parlies,especially those who had been bonefítted byMr. Therry's judicious decisions, to have an

opportunity of showing the value of theimpor-

tant services he for so longa time rendered tho

commnnity. Many no doubt will subscribe tothis offering, from other motives, viz., from

personal friendship, and others us Mr. Calla-ghan did, because Mr. Therry is an Irishman.

reflects great credit upon them ; welrustit will

have acorresponding eff ct upon their Sydney

brethren, who seempertinaciously 1>. tit upon

slicking to the oldhorse-killing hours. These

gentlemen should should recollent that, theywere once shopmen themselves, and have a

utile commisseration on those in their employ-ment, by relaxinga lillie. We foul convincedthat were

they to adopt thesystem of shutting

at eight in the evenings, they would transact

the same Amount of businessthey

now do, and« ilhiil get on iii their business belter, as their

young men, by ibis indulgence, would enter

more warmly into the interests of their em-

ployers, particularly whenllioy saw they wore

treated in a humane and rational way. Whatwe ask, are the Drapers' Association about,that I hey have allowed this subject to full lo the

ground.

MUTINY ON Bo.inn THE BROTHERS.- A few

days after thisship

left the Cape of Good Hope,the sailors having conspired, refused lo a man

to perform theirduly, besides offoriug the

grossest abuse to the captain and officers. The

captain, determining not to submit to his

refractory men, with the assistance of ¿i feiv

of the emigrants, succeeded in overpowering,and placing in ¡rons the whole of the "mutineers;forf.iui'ieon days he kept thom in close confine-

ment, and by the aid of hispassengers

was

forlunu'e enough to navigate hisship willi com

paralive case; on solemn promises of amend-

ment and ex pressing the utmost regret for their

conduct, the prisoners were released,'

and

returned lo-duty. Yes ie rd aj*

the ismc insub-

ordinate conduct broke out amongst them, and

we were told that both Cupiains Innes and

Brown, wt.nl on bonni the Brothers ¡o iuves

ligaie the causes of dispute between the captainand them. Wo li ive not yet . heard the

result.

RAPE.-Ytstejpdny a wretch of the name of

Etios Dillon, was charged before the Police

Magistrate,' with that must bçasily of all crimes,

rape, upon the person of a child aged scarcely

eight years; the prisoner was remanded until

to day. Wo forbear ¡living or commenting«pou the evidence already deposed to, until we

can lay the whole facts »f tho case before the

public, suffice it at present to «¡ay, that the

prevalence ol'this crime in the Colony is not n

whit lessened by ibu example of ihe capital

punishment of u beary scoundrel who was

trinity of a similar oiYiMie.e, and who justly for-

feited his lile on ihe scaffold some weeks ago.

Pot.icr. OincE.- In 'his Court, yesterday,the usual routine of cases -fin* petty theft,d'.'unk'enne**. &c, were disposed ; there was

one case of i ape remanded tor further evidence.A young child wa* hrnuitht up-charge i willi

THE TIMES.-During tho last week we

thought that a beneficial change had come over

the spirit of the times; sorry aro wo to state

that our anticipations have been groundless;the cry still is - " No money and dull times."

Five individuals, who are largely connectedwith mercantile affairs, have, during the week,

Sin,

Sincemy last communication I have the

pleasure of announcing to you, that two of thefour

bushrangers that have for some time been

levying their contributions on the settlers in this

district, were captured in the itiltor end of last

week, by two ofJDr. Bowman's overseers,

aitled by two or three ticket of len ve men,

whilst engaged in robbing a dray at Salt Water

Creek; two of the rascals managed to eff el

llmir escape owing to the darkness of the night,before means could be taken to prevent them ;

the other two are safe in the lock up ; one of'horn goes hy.the name of "

Woulobi Jack;"lie uti* an assigned arrvnnl to Mr, William

Cox, and has {'or some time been the lender ofa.

gang of bn-diranger-i, who* have been a terror?o nil settlers in ihn quarter ; it is lo be hopedthe

Goyornmcnt will grant conditional pardonsto the ticket men, as it may induco othors to

follow their good example. "Theic is no doub'tbut the other two bushrangers who have es-

caped will shortly bt taken, as aparly of

mounted police aro now after them, under an

able and experienced leader; Yours,

Merlon, .Afarch 3, 1841.

E. E.

[We respectfully suggest to His Excellency'sconsideration ihe poliey of

graining ii coudition'al

pardon to the ticket of leave men, who

have, ns ourcorrespondent slates, aided in the

capture of the two bushrangers, ns wo feel perfeclly convinced that

nothing will tend so much.o make

bushiiuiging a "stale game," than

encouraging government men to similar exer

tion. It will he the means of sowing dislru-,1in the minds of all who may be inclined to

take to thesecourses, who at present are har

j

bonred and screened from the vengeance of the

law, by persona who now are, or at one limewere

prisoners of the'

crown. They will bearrnid to trust themselves in the power of such

persons, «;ero they to feel that;by so doing,they run the risk of being delivered

up to thehands of justice, and it will also have the cer-

tain effect ofbreaking (hat more than bond of

freemasonry, which unite all of this class ;

-disconnect the chain .that binds them to-

gether, by holding out ititiuecnents to thosethat are inclined and shew that I hey are willingto amend, mid you take one of the readiestmodes of doing away with bushranging, the

thoughts of which, and the knowledgo that it

existed in this Colony to such a great extent as

it undoubtedly does, have deterred more indi-

viduals from su.tlinjr amongst us, than perhapsany other circumstance we could mein ¡on.]

CHAP. T.

With all the ardent and buoyant feelings ofayouthful fancy of speedily realising an indo

pendency in aforeign country, 1 determined,

in the wandering spirit of my countrymen, to

leave " those bonny hills and dales" where oft

my boyish footsteps wandered.; accordingly,with a throbbing hean, I divulged my inten-

tions to the aged couple. I need not tiweli on

Üic agonizing feeling? of my family, orit)}'

own

oft-bursting henri ; (ivory fond recollection thenawakened within me a< if to add to my misery ;

tho'.eonly can sympathise with mo who have

lelt their native country lo be¡teparar.d from

all they hold dear most likely for ever. I soon

an ¡veil at Greenock, and look my passage for

Sydney along wiih 320 others. Monday, theloth July, 163-, was die day appointed for

us to sail;that day, (lie sailors sang their song,

the anchor wai weighed, and in a few minuteswe were gliding down ihe noble Clyde. 1looked towards ihe quays indUtinctly, theywere crowded with poople prompted either byaffection or curiosity; again, they were Io*t toview

; night drew her s-luuly mantle around u«."

Farewell, then Scotia,"! muttered tomyself,"

a long farewell."

At early dawn the next morning I hurriedon my dollies, sprung upon deck, and from tho

unfavorable winds of thenight I could see

Erin's green hills in the distance ere they had

yet disappeared, I called our little Highlandpiper from below ; Brown, I said, give us"

Lochaber no more." Many a Highlandheart sunk while that plaintive air was playing ;

all, indeed, were sensibly affected. I could.not but observe now for the first lime, that therowore too many human beings huddled

together,considering the size of our ship, disease mustbo the inevitable

consequence thought I; no

doubt, however, theprincipal supercargo looked

forward with pleasure to the day when he shouldreceive his Government price per head for his

ship load of emigranfs. I shall not attempt todescribe the admirable confusion that reignedon board for some days; the women, of course,were not silent, some cried

"

the biscuit was

bail," some"

could not take lea withoutmilk,"

and others said "

thoy must have fresh meat,"poor people, they did not yet know what all

they had to encounter ero they reached New

South Wales. Aiong

sea voyage is the best

specific I know of for bringing out the secret

weakness of every person, and' I would advisethose lovers who are rather ^doubtful of the

tempers of each/other, that they should takesuch a Iii;», and I am confident they will see

such a change take placeas could only be found

out a week after marriage. Here wo were thenall sorts and sizes, marri, d and unmarried,

stingy calculating old bachelors and natty old

maids, tolerably good looking and tolerablyugly women ; there were also men who exceeded

the license of their sex for ugliness, willi a fewof those bipeds that cannot be described. A

change came o'er " the spirit of their dream,"however, s'-a sickness came upon them

; nowall was still except an occasional groan now

and then, or ihe seamen'B tramp on the deck;

for the first time I could hear our crazy barquedashing through the waves, and the

patteringof thereof points on the sails, nbout forty of

my fellow passengers Ieanetl iuintishly on the

gunwale as if admit ing

'¡'he deep blue sea,

under a dtizzling rain, anti others lay stretchedon the hen coops, altogether tho scene was in-

finitely more amusing to me (han I could havebefore imagined. This

picture did not last

long,all was uproar and confusion as before,

and continued so to the end ol' the chapter. Imust say, a sea voiage of half the length ofours is

exceedingly dull, tiresome, and monoto-

nous throughout, with few varied incidents to

annken us from our languid thoughts. Onesoon tires of beholding nothing but the sea

below, and the sky above, though we have seentheir beauticF, and have felt their charms.

¡Sut,

Tnregard Io your report of the

proceedings.of the meeting of'theDispensa'y, it is liol cor-

rect " that no- accommodation existed for Rep irtets;" and besides Mr. Beaneror any mem-ber of Committee would havo supplied anydeficiupcy.

Inregard to (ho observations

respeciing tho.' omission of the Rev. Mr. Murphy as a pro.poser and seconder of a resolution," tln-y areno1 called for by the facts of the r,i*f. .Mr.Murphy has ever, most

sedulously nüended as

a member of Cummitlce, and it «a-jn Igod

advisable, as far aspossible, to have u.-uiial

persons todischarge such duties. H «ide» dm

resolutions were distributed prior to Mr. Mur-phy's arrival. The

Dispensary were kindlyallowed the use of the room by Mr. Murphy,and an

explanation of the omission, which was

entirely accidental, wits made before leaving theroom. It is hoped, therefore, that (his line ofconduct " will not do more harm than good tothe

South Australia. Pi

Our files of South Australian journals reachto the 3rd Feb. They conlain nothing of anygreat public interest, unless tho fuot that Governor Gawler has fallen into no little

disreputewith the Colonisls not so much on account ofihe reckless expenditure he ha*

incurred, whichit must be allowed has aroused the just anger ofthe self-supporting colonization schemets, as on

account of several arbitrary and petty acts oftyranny against private individuals. The pressare

pouring the vials of their wrath on hishead,and It must be

apparent to every one that hisremaining as Governor could not much longtrbe protracted, Tito South Australians, it

ap-pears, have not heard that C donel Gawler hagbeen recalled, though currently reported here.Trade is exceedingly dull; money is

scarce;and, to crown the desponding fit of our neigh,boars, no emigrants, no

goods, and no capital-ists are aiming to vary the sad monotony oftheir lives. Ina late publication,¡a referring tothe I'roteclorsof the Aborigines at Port

Phillip,"we expressed our

opinions of the perfect innti

lity of such a class of persons asthe)' were.

Oar brethren of Sou h Australia seem io viewthe subject in the same light as we do, and statethat the

Protectorship, as at present conducted,is worse than useless; but let the Registergive his own

opinion. The other extracts areliom ihe South. Australian..

THE NATIVES.-We directparticular atten-

tion to a report by Mr, 'reichelmann, one of ti eGerman Missionaries, on the sute of the abori-gines. W

any thing were wanting to confirmour previous impressions, as well with

regardto the capabilities of the natives

themselves, as

of the totalinadequacy of the measures hitheno

adopted towards tlicm, thisreport would

supplythe deficiency. Wo know Mr. 'reichelmann lobe an amiable and excellent individual-but it

U self-evident thnt ho has begun at the wrongend, and that no attempt to chiliz» (he nativesor io teach them the doctrines of

Christianitybefore ho has taught them to dig, can bo other-wise than a dead failure. What the Protectoris about wo know not. "The park lands are

swarming with natives, mujer nocontroul, who

are a nuisance and aprst to the v.hole cotnmu

nify. TJim they are allowed to enter Adelaideat all, appeals lo na to be a sad neglect of the

proper business of the Protector, who has over-

looked the principle laid down by theSecretary

of Slate, wi'h reference to the duties of hi«

office, namely,?" To attend the

aborigines intheir movements from place to place, until

theycan be induced lo assume more settled habitsof life."

The South Australian Protector hasvery

different notions, and, according to our view, is

fairly amenable to the charge brought agaiu-thil» brethren of Port Phillip by His

ExcellencySir George Gipps, of "

bestirring themselves intheir proper avocations very little, and insteadof going to the aborigines, the

aborigines are

brought to them at Melbourne(Adelaide),

where, as easily might have been foreseen, theybecame the prey of new

diseases, and learned,new vicrs."

¿

TheProtectorship, in short, as at present .

conducted, is wore than useless. It is a shal-,

low pretext merely for asserting in England that t

something is doing for thenatives, while, in fact,

[(

nothing whatever is done either towards iheir|

improvement or civilization.|

Tho object of Mr. Thorms's tiiit toEngland,

f

is to obtain redress for the tyrannical coutiui t »

of Governor Gawler in depriving Messrs Tho-e

it

of lheir agreement previous to settling in thej

province, and of his illegally piratingtho South \

pearance of this gentleman from Adelaide

during the past week, has caused no littlo

consternation andsurprise. It is

generally re-

ported that he has left thecolony in the Royal

Admira1, which vessel sailed for Batavia on

Wednesday la«t. Some, however, think thathe may have only proceeded in her to KangarooIsland-while others fear he may luve beendrowned in landing from the vessel in Holdfast

Bay. Amidst this uncertainty, it is difficult to

arrive at an opinion ;the more general belief,

however, is,that ho has left the

colony, althoughfor what tcason he should have done so it is hatdto

conjecture, as we aro informed he has left

sufficient property to cover all demands againstbim in the colony, so far as is yd ascertained.
