Voyage of the American Steamer Golden [From the London Times, April 20.] Details lately received of the passage of the American nidle-steamer Golden Age, from Liverpool to Australia, ‘rnish interesting suggestions regarding the ultimate prospects of rapi gold colonies, but the Cape of Good Hope. This steamer, Which was capable of carrying 1,200 persons, and had just made onc of the best trial trips ever known across the Atlantic, left Liverpool in November last, with a small number of passengers and an unremunerative ha considerable caigo, the post office authorities having refused te pay her the slightest extra sum for | taking a mail. She reached the Cape in twenty-six days ands half, thus making to that point the shortest pas- sage upon record. Indeed, the Kitterence from any pas sage peeve known is alleged to have been as muc! ei jays. ing, but so as to effect the entire Passage from Liverpool to Australis in sixty-one days, including detentions, and im an actual running time of forty-seven days. Con- sidering that in future trips the advantages of experience would enable distances to be saved and greater speed to be attained, the possibility of the eommunication to Aus- tralia being regularly brought within fifty days, even by the ne route, seems consequently to have been demon- strated. According to the statements of the commander, Ceptain Porter, he made the whole distance to the Cape with four furnaces blocked off, and with a consumption of only thirty tons of coal per day, five days’ consump- ‘tion remaining upon arrival in port.

A very uneasy | feeling was thus imparted to the market, and for somo time and account price of Consola, thus showing that the job- bers bad become supplied with stock. There ‘was subsequently some reaction, and Consols touched 871 for money, but they afterwards fell io 87% to ¥ on a notice being posted up in the House that the govern- ment would receive tenders for Exchequer Bonds bearing 835 per cent interest, to the extent of £6,000,000, re. deemable at par in 1868, 1869, and 1860, af tho rate of £2,000,000 at each period,” Consols had just previously been quoted at 8734 to 54, and it will therefore be son that the effect of the ap)carauce of the government noti- fication was to cause but a very slight fall in prices. A great disparity was observable in the opinions expressed With regard ‘0 this financial operation, but it was very strongly ‘argued that, although the public generally ; might vot like security of « temporary character, which is likely to be paid off when money may be easy, | the new security may suit the convenience and circum- | stonces of many large capitalists.

Lonvox, Friday, April 21—5 P. M. The colonial and foreign produce markets re-opened after the Kaster holidays on the 19th inst., but little ac- other companies, English or American, from venturing tivity has been shown, and transactions generally havo independently on this branch of enterprise. Hence the prospects of future steam communication between the colonies and the mother country are discouraging. The ustralian Pacific Company and the Royal Australasian pany hnve entirely abandoned thé fleld, fina nave cither sold their vessels or chartered them to the govern- | be ment, while it seems doubtful if the General Screw Com- ny, also, may not eventually find it more tenupting to fon such vessels as the Golden Fitece in the transport xervice raiher than to send them on their | original destinations The only haope of a more en- couraging character appears to lie in the opening up of a route from Sydney to Liverpool via Panama, or Nicaragua and New Yorke. Supposing type) coal. ing atrany nts to he made, Captain Por considers that the len Ae could reach Panama or Nicaragua, from Sydney, ia twenty-seven days. Thence to New York, by the existing steamers, would occupy eight days, wv! from New York to Liverpool the average time is eleven davs. Tho total from Sydney to Liverpool would thus be forty-six days, or, allowing three days for stoppages, forty-nine days. The chief probability of such 8 route being established consists in the fact of the link between sydney ‘and Paname being #li that is required to bring it into existence. Whether the New York com- peny to whom the Golden Age belongs, intend now to carry out their original plan of putting it into operation remains to be ascertained. During the present demand for steamers it ia proboble that that vessel may immedi- ately be sought for other purposes, but there is stron, reason to anticipate that, sooner or later, by the natural tendencies of commerce, the route in question may grow into the most important line of traffic between tho northern and southern hemispheres.

The weather since the 18th has been unseasoaably hot until this morning, when we haye a much lower tempe- rature and an indication of rain, which is required for spring corn. Karly on the morning of the 19th we had a severe thunder storm. The arrivals at this port since Tuesday have been mo- derate, but very numerous (chiefly wheat) at Queens- town from the Black Sea ports. Without being able to report an active demand, we have hada good healthy consumptive one for flour, and at Manchester market yesterday, the full prices paid here on Tuesday were iy obtained for all qualities, and a large business done to dealers and bakers.

The was crowded to excess, the number of specta- eed, appearing to increase with every succeeding day of this interesting trial, At half-past ten the prisoner not having arrived, the District Attorney, Mr. Blunt, rose and said:—I am advised that Mrs. Hayes is in that very critical condition that it would be attended with great danger to herself to bring her into this court room, much more so for her to remain during this painful investigation. I have met her physi- cian, who tells me that it is impossible for her to be hero; and I therefore submit to the Court, that humanity and some regard, not merely to the prisoner, but to the public officer in the discharge of one of the most harrowing duties that falls to the lot of man, requires that this case should be suspended for the present, Iam advised by her counsel that she insists upon being brought here, and I submit, therefore, to your Honor, that it ought not to be, and that this case be suspended uutil Monday next, with a view of seeing how far this unfortunate female may or may not recover sufficiently to enable her to be present. ir. Busteed, one of prisoner’s counsel, said he sym- pathized entirely with the learned public prosecutor, in view of the onerous and painful duty devolving on him. The counsel for the defence would be very glad to second the suggestion and postpone the trial, if they had any discretion left. In the matter of the prosecution of this trial, they had no discre- tion left. The faet was painfully apparent to all that Mrs. Hayes was in an exceedingly delicate condition of health. The counsel for the defence had already twice related to the court that her longer confinement in the Tombs would be extremely prejudicial, and had made repeated applications to admit her to bail. Notwith- stand herenfcebled state of health, Mrs. Hayes insisted peremptorily that the duty with which her counsel were charged should be discharged without delay. She wants this trial continued until it is completed—she wants this jury to say whether she is guilty upon the proof furnished, or not. Her counsel believe that her sickuoss is to be attributed to the confinement she has undergone, and from extreme nervous excitement from this trial. The District Attorney cited section 13, 820:—No person indicted for any felony can be tried uniess ho or she be personall, pores dui such trial.”’ The art aad it when a ner is in such a condi tion, either mental or bodily, that she is not able to de- fend herself, se is not in a condition to be properly tried, and that the trial should be suspended. Mr. Whiting said mere bodily infirmity was ao ex: cuse—idioey carried irresponsibility. The prisoner had been contined in a pice which was a disgrace to the age —a place in which it was utterly impossible that s! should remain and continue in health. Hers w: temporary sickness that would pass away shortly, and the weuld probably be able to be brought into court in the afternoon. Dr. Langdon, who raw Mrs. Hayes yesterday profes- sionally, was then sworn. Question. Have you been attending Mrs. Hayes as medi- caladviser? Answer. Yes. Q. What was her condition last evening? A, She was somewhat better. Q. How waa she this morning? A. She had an inter. mittent fever; when I attempted to get her up I found she could not come here. Q. Do you consider that she is in a condition to be here while this case is goingon? A. No. How long were you there? A. About twenty min- utes. Q. Do you consider her seriously unwell? A. Not so much so but that she will be able to be here to-morrow; I think by this evening she will be able to be here. Henry Bertholf, one of the officers of the Court, was then sworn—I came to the hotel at hal past seven or eight o'clock; saw the prisoner; abe lay perfectly stupid, with her eyes aank in her head, and pale as death: she aroused a little while I was there; I left and returned again, and she was about the same; I met the District Attorney, and related to him the condition she was in; she appeared to be very feeble. Mr. Whiting said that the prisoner insisted upou pro- ceeding with the trial, ana wished, if possible, to lave it goon without her presence. He submitted to the Court that they stood ready to procure a written stipulation that no objection shall be made to the proceedings of this day in this court. If this cause goes over until to-mor- row, it will go over to the middle of next week. These prisoners cannot compensate us) we cannot proceed with any other business in the meantime. She is sensitively alive to our condition, and, under all these cirenm- stances, they urged upon the Court the expedieney of proceeding without delay. ‘The Court said :—The statute on this subject is beyond question and unqualified. It declares without reserva- tion or exception of any kind, that no person indicted for any felony can be tried unless he be present daring euch trial. at ie the whole of it, so far as this case is concerned, oe oe oe the trial go on if the prisoner consents Pty a her counsel to waive the which is intended for her benefit?

Court refused to permit an adjournment fora limited ateo late am hour, sad permission was asked to despatch twe of the oficers of the court to con- ‘Mra. Hayes from her hotel. "Ine Court-No foree whatever must be used. Mr, Busteed—No force will be used as long as I ata present. About half an hour elapsed, at the expiration of which the counsel! and the officers retorned. Mr. Busteed said he had availed himself of the polite- ness of a member of the profession to accompany him on his visit to Mrs Hayes. They had found her ia such a condition as made it im ible to remove her. He would further state, that if by any exercise of the power vested in the Court this trial might be legally proceeded with in her absence, he should ask the benefit of it. He would present the following stipulation, signed by Mrs. Hayes:— COURT OF OVER AND TERMINER. The People, $c. agoinst Clara Hayes.—1 hereby consent and wish that the trial of this case he procoeded with in m shsence, and I beneit or advantage of any by my counsel during my absen wi favor which socures to me the risht of my being provent at such trial, my bodily health being 20 foevlo as to. prevent my phzrical presence in the Court, ened CLARA HAYES, Dated Now York, 1854, in tho presence of nichard Biamet, The Court then adjourned till Monday morning at ten , o'clock. Tre Patan Casvacry ar Starnway Sration.— Mr. Wilson, who hac charge of the laborers employed on the occasion, has furnished us with the following list of the persons drowned, all of whom resided in Weatfail township, Pike county, Pennsylvania:— Patrick Grinning, leaves a wife und one child. Patrick Joyce, also leaves a wife aad one child. John A, Hering, had a wife and three children. Jeremiah Cashin, leaves a wife and several children. Patrick Nicholson, Cary Kane and Peter Salmon, neither of them married. Two others, named Edward Clare and Philip Seanen, fell with the ‘embankment, but were rescued. Scanen caught hold of a telegraph ‘pole which fell near him, and held on until a boat reached him. None of the bodies of those drowned have heen recovered, Mr. Wilson, the trackmaster, had a very narrow es- cape. He had left the embankment for a few inoments, and was returning when it fell. Had it fallona few se- onde later he would inevitably have been carried with it. A man named Patricl: Healey was drowned in the river near Kirk’s candy factory, in this village, the same day. He stepped upon a log lying in the river tocatch some rift wood, slipped and fell into the water. and in a mo- ment Was beyond human aid. The body was found on y lay morning, @ few huudreds yards below where he fell in. He was buried yesterday, ‘two other persons feil into the river, near the com- pany’s woodshed, the same afternoon, while attempting to catch driit wood, and were nearly drowned, as Wis & colored man who attempted to rescue them ina boat. All were in the river for some time, and were finally res: cued by people on the shore.—Port Jervis Union, May 4. rE ee arene me FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. MONKEY MARKET. Fripay, May 5—6 P. M. It would be difficult to tell from the quotations carrent | at the first board to-day, whether prices were better or worse. There is no regularity in the movement, one way or the other. The same inconsiytencies daily appear. At the first board to-day some of the fancies were up, while others were down. Reading Railroad advanced \ per cent; Hudson Railroad, 4; Michigan Central Railroad, 14; Michigan Southern Railroad, %; Cleveland, Columbus and Cincinnati Railroad, 4; Parker Vein, 3. New York Cen- tral bonds declined 34 per cent; Crystal Palace, 4; Now York Central Railroad, 44; Harlem, 34. New York Cen- tral was offered to-day in large lots, afd the transactions were unusually large. It seems to us that the greater the depreciation in certain securities the more freely they | are offered. We take the daily reported sales as a guide, upon the supposition that all the operations given are bona fide. Crystal Palace found a lower depth to-day, and is still tending downward. The operations in. rail- road bonds are confined to those of the Illinois Central, New York Central, and Erie Company’s, and are limited inamount. We do not sce much margin for further de- preciation, and there is very little doubt but that each and all of thom are good investments at present prices. They pay heavy rates of interest on the current cost price, and must be gradually absorbed for investment. After the adjournment of the Board the following sales of stocks were made at auction by Simeon Draper:— 10 shares Bank of Ulster, at Saugerties, N. 10 do, of at Handout 3 J 20 do.

The accounts do not vary materially from those received by the previous steamer. The money market and produce markets had experienced no change of consequence. Quotations for cotton and corn had slightly improved, with a pretty active demand for consumption. In the manufacturing districts a better feeling prevailed. Con- sols were firm at previous quotations. The most un- favorable feature in the financial intelligence is the heavy drain of bullion from the Bank of England. {For the week ending Saturday, April 15, the decrease amounted to £620,726. This is the largost sum reported in any one week, and the effect cannot be otherwise than bad. It must soon be visible in the moyement of the bank, and | calls for the adoption of some measure to arrest such ox- | cossive exportations of specie, It is not impossible but | that Parliament may legalize the circulation of paper money beyond the limit provided for in the present bank | act. The announcement from the Chancellor of the Ex chequer ef Great Britain, inviting tenders for £6,000,00 of exchequer bonds, bearing three and a half per cen interest, created no excitement at the London Stock Rx- change. It was well known that the government contem- plated a loan. The Chancellor bas availed himself of the present popularity of the war to provide funds for futare contingencies. Public opinion is so very uncertain that it is dangerous to trust long to any phase it may assume, and the Chancellor has shown a great deal of shrewdnoss and finaneial skill in making the movement at the present time. The following insurance companies of Boston have re cently declared semi-annual dividends:—Boylston, 4 per cent; National, 6; Manufacturers’, 10; Cochituate, 4; Merchants’, 4. During the five years ending with 1853, | the average annual dividends paid by four of these com- panies were as follows:—Boylston, 12 8-10 per cent; Na- tional, 16 8-10; Manufacturers’, 22 7-10; Merchants’, | 25 2-10, The Cochituate did not commence business till 1850. During the week ending Saturday, the 20th ult., forty- | three ennal boats cleared from Cumberland, loaded with 4,630 tons of coal. For the month just expired, 15,661 | tons of coal and 182 tons of coke were shipped from that point. During the same week there were transported | over the Cumberland Coal and Iron Company's Railroad 6,721 tons, and over the Mount Savage Railroad 6,603 tons, making an aggregate for the week, from the Frost- | burg region, of 11,724 tons. For the same period, there | were carried over the railroad of the George’s Creek Coal | and Iron Company 3,861 tons, making a total from the | Westernport region, for the week, of 3,851 tons, all of which passed eastward over the Baltimore and Ohio Rail” road. Total from the whole coal region for the week, 16,576 tons, and singe the Ist of January, 84,427 tons, of which 16,758 tons descended the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal, and 67,660 tons were transported over the Dulti- | Railroad, more and Ohio The earnings of the Chicago and Rock Island Railroat, for the month of April, were:—For passengers, $67,041 fot freight and mails, $29,008,—Total, $86,944.
