We have news from Sydney, Australia, to the L0th of March. A correspondent of the London Times writes :—BSince last sammary the markets have been | glutted by excessive arrivals from England, and the prices have been inordinately depressed. Several failures bave taken place, but they are mostly amoag | smal! firms of limited means, and happily not likely greatly to influence the markets, Yet confidence has been shaken, and few bat cash transactions are ventured upon. The depression in commercial mat- | ters generally is exercising an unfavorable infinetce | with respect to gold as well as other commodities. | Ye! the yield of the various gold fields is tolerably | steady, aud the returns do not present an unfavor- | able appearance. The gold shipped duriag 1557 | amounted to 626,874 ounces and 11 dwts. Late advices from Mexico state that Col. Crabbe | and his filibustering companions, some sixty in | of that court.

There was oot a quorum of members present in | the Board of Councilmen last evening when the roll was called, and the Bosid adjourne] till Thursday afternoon. In the Board of Aldermen last evening acom- munication was received from the Mayor endorsing the recommendation of the new Central Park Com- mission for an appropriation for the purchase of the Stage Arsenal property, whish lies within the boundaries of the Park. The Mayor, however, en- tirely ignores the claims of the Commissioners to recognition in their assumed official capacity. The Mayor also,in accordance with a resolution of the Grand Jury, urged the proclamation of a reward for the detection of the marderer of Dr. Bardell. The case of John J. Eckel was yesterday post- poned till the October term of the Court of Oyer and Terminer, when the trial will take place, or a nolle prosequi be entered by the prosecuting officer.

The case of Thos. Deniny, charged with arson in the first de gree, was called on, but at the adjournment of the Court only ten jurors were selected. A new panel was or dered for to-day. The Young Men's Democratic Union Club, who met at their rooms in the Mercer Honse last eve- ning, postponed the consideration of a series of re- sclations condemning the action of the recent Le gislatare in passing the amended charter, Pollce bill, &o.

Do they suppose that all the public spirited men in this city are located in Wall etreet, or that patriotism is exclusively the property of gamblers in railway securities or poet office sites? We think we are entitled to ne much credit as Weeley & Co. for our liberal of- fers to stimulate the discovery of the perpetrators of the bloody deeds which have spotted tho his- tory of our eity and State during the past few years. But yeur professional gambler is always ready to back up his sincerity with a wager; 60 your professional stockjobber knows no other test of good faith than to bind his assertion with a deposit of money. Messrs. Wesley & Co. are not exceptions to the rule of the craft. They say they are ready and willing to deposit the five thousand dollars in the Shoe and Leather Bank. This offer is made in a pure 4Vall street spirit. Ia that locality, the only test of sincerity is found in stocks, dollars, banks—banks, dollars and stocks, Weeley & Co, must not, however, imagine that, because we do not operate in fancy stocks, wt bave not as much public spirit as they.

Thelr chal matter of consideration was the report of progress aa given exclusively in the Herat. The detsil was read especialy in relation to the ex; at the Fifth ward station house.

Mr. Tallmadge being consulted, expressed his full determination to make good the stand be had deliberately taken when he accepted the post of thelr executive officer.
