They were brought gol by the Teviot steamer, slong with the advices published ¢ day before yesterday, but did not reach town uatt last evening.

He travelled over the district about sixteen years ago, when the scenery, mited extent the foatures, of the country msde en impretsion on his mind. Latterly he visited Califoraia, and. while in the gold regions of that country, was rtruck with their resemblavce to the wilderness which he had seen in Australia so many years before A resistless desire to return and explore for gold then took possession of him,@nd he “could not rest untilhe had fatisfled it by a personal seacch,”” which he at length ac- complished, altbough under difficulties and privations, the reeult being, according to his words, the disclosure of “unbounded wealth” to his fellow colonists. The | papere also state that the Rey. Mr. Clark, » local goslo- gist, has all along contended that not only was the pre- cious metal to be found in that locality, but throughout: the principal chain of mountains which belt the Aurtra- Hancontinent. It is added, that for some time past a shepherd named M‘Gregor had been in the habit of bripging gold to Sydney for sale, who maintali however, great secrecy Tespecting whence he gained it Mr. ves commenced his search about the | middle of January last, and after teaversing the | country for about three hundred miles, took ad- vantege of his experience in California, and selecting | & spot, proceeded successfully to work.

The metal was raid to be distcibuted to a considerable extent in the bed of the creek, and other discoveries were predicted. Reports had been received at Sidney of gold having been found at a place called [l- Jawarra, near the yo river. Mr. Hargraves states that the gold he has obtained is quite equal, if not suze- rior, to that which he saw while in California Mr. Stach- bury, the ernment geologist, had examined the locall- ty; but his report bad not been published at the latest late In the midst of the prevailing excitement it was feared that much exaggeration might be easouraged It was represented by some that provisions at Bathurst had’ risen enormously ; others contradicted this state- ment. A letter dated the 29h of May, from that place, written by a resident who hsd visited the diggings, did not give in every Fempect the most encouraging account of proceedings. “ Where one person,” he says, “is lacky and finds £20 or £30 worth id in a single lamp fatty perrons ave scarcely earning 10s. a day, and forty-nine not more than than the cost of their rations.” Distress and ricknoss were also apprehended from the nature of the climate in the mountains and the severity of the winter when it should set in.

I mow learn that in the Cuban question, but have, very an politically, caused as much to be signified to the Spanish governmeut, which. when it is considered that it is the unanimous Rolioy of all parties here, without exception, to retain Cuba at all costs, shi eny rate that Lord Palmerston sets very little value on — any in- fluence that may have bee! segs y the British Bn- oy at this Court.

The anti-slavery cause would certainly not be promoted by it. The present Captain General, General J. Concha, is believed to be de- sirous to repress the slave trade, and gradually to ex- Hegceh Aeros itself; but annexation would mike it, to all present appearance, perpetual Then, again, ths Spanish government have drawn upon the surplus reve- nues of Cuba to the amount of eighty millions of pare which, under the most favorable circumstances, it wi! probably take two yeurs or more to pay off; ani should this source fail, the bank, and other parties who have taken the bills, must be indemnified out of other reve- nues; and it may be judged what chance there would be of the pes age vem of the public debt being fuldiled under such circumstances. The F nya putting down of the Aguerro insurrection, and the destruction of the Lopez expedition, will perhaps give a breathing time to Spain, which, it is to be hoy will be used to place things in better order in this ialand and her other colonies. One practical evil has been the division, and often op- ‘ition, of the colonial powers. Thus, in Cuba, the ‘aptain General finds his every 4 counterbalanced by the Superintendent General, who at the head of the finances of the island, by the Commander in-Chief of the aval department, and by the head of the julicial de- rtment. General J. Concha, on arriving at Cuba, found imeelf so hampered (the parties being frequently nominated on the same principle as at one time re- gulated the appointment of Chief Secretaries of Ire- land, viz, that were to“look after” the Lord Lieutepant) that he demanded to have supreme powers conferred upon him over every other au- thority, and forwarded his resignation to ‘his brother, Don Juan Concha, the diplomatist, as the alternative. ‘The breaking out of the rebellion prevented the resigna- tion being sent in by Don Juan Conchs when it arrived bere; but it is understood that the present Cptain Ge- eral will not remain except on that condition, which, from the recent language of a 1 journal, the Popular, will probably be agreed to. It is said to be uader contemplation to raise the governors of Cuba and the Philippines to the rank of viceroys, and al4o to ervate a re ministerial department for ths colontes. the new Colonial Secretary to be assisted bya Consultative Junta, compored of the members of the colonial section of the Council of State; to be increased to nine Spanish mem- bers of royal nomination, and six colonial ditto, each named by the Queen from a list of three candidates for- ty lth | warded by the Governor, on the proposal of the colonial merchants and proprietors, Something of this kind will very likely be ultimately adopted, and if this lead toa beiter administration of Cuba, and ths fall powers given toits Governor enable him to repress the slave trade, and perhaps to promote the gradual abolition of slavery, all will have been done that can be done with aafety; for it is the heizht of folly to suppose that slavery coull be extinguished there at once, asit is that England has aay national object to gain which would be promoted by the: lcse of that valuable colony to Spain. (From a Madrid,Letter, Sept. 9.] All doubts respecting Guneral Armero’s entering the istry are now set at rest. He was sworn ia before the Queen last night. I believe that. although the predonderating feeling tn the ministry is in :avor of conceding to General Coacha the full powers be demands, and somy of the chief reforms which be has proposed, there was no uasnimity on the subject, even previous to the entry ot General Armero; and the presence of the latter, who has filled of late the post of naval commander-in-chief at Cuba in which ca- peaty be did not work very well, it ia said, with General Comeha, may prove rather embarrassing under present circumetanc+s, since it may be difficult to withstand the demands of a captain general who has successfully put down insurrection and invasion, while those demands will not be willingly acceded to by the new Minister of Marine. It is quite understood, however, that General Concha will not remain at Cuba, unless the po’ ant reforms which be considers necessary for the efiicient government of the island be granted him.

Such a principle is strictly a ps- Binsular one; and though it may be acted upon by Nar vaer and the military statesmen of Spain. it will soarce iy, be resegutned by ‘the rest of the world, Again, it i leged that the number and resources of the invaders aggravated the orimi: but i would be equally tru that the power and resources of the Spanieh goverameat which rendered summary proceedings unnecersary for ite immediate security, heighten the imprudsace, if not the guilt, of ite conduct.

If, under circumstances such es those which have oo- curred, any government should either be unwilling or unable to do what the comity of nations demand of it, such a government would necessarily incur the contemp* and excite the indignation of every civilized community.
