3 _ oe AUSTRALASIA. By the arrival of the Australasian mail steamship ‘Ruanine at Panama on the 6th inst., and thence by ‘the Rustng Star at this port yesterday, we have files from Australasia dated at Sydney, N. 8. W., on the 2a of July, with mail adviees from Wellington, New Zealand, to the 8th of July. ‘The Ruahine reports she left Sydney on the 2d gnd Wellington on the 8th of Joly, On leaving Welling- ton favorable winds were experienced up to the 17th, on which day a heavy easterly gale was encountered, causing the engines to go dead slow, supsequently variable head winds unu! within twe days of the equaior, from whence moderate and fair trades.

Ourmail adv! from Sydney of July 2 report:— Our criminal records have been increased by the midition of an cnusually barbarous outrage com- mitted at the Ironbank diggings by a Chinaman mained Ah Mow, who, on the evening of the loth ult., entered the store of a Mr. Lee and asked for some meat. His victim wentto attend to his business, and in a few seconds afterwards his sou, aged mine yeni heard his father call forpelp. The boy ran to ‘he spot and saw his father ly/fig on the ground and th» Chinaman stabbing him. " He seized the murder- ous assailant by the ta and then ran, the Chinaman following and ‘stabbing him, ‘The Chinaman then ran after Mr, Lee's two little girls, aged five and a half years and four years, and stabbed them both, ‘One is since dead, and there are no hopes for the re- covery of the boy. An older girl ran and procured the assistance of aman named George Wheen, who, when he arrived, found Mr. Lee dying, the murderer having rifled his pockets, plundered the house and escaped, ‘Another supposed murder occurred in the same district. The wile of a prize fighter named Dick Hunt was found dead in her house, An inquest was heid and a verdic' of wilful murder returned against some persons unknown. The great contempt of Parliament case, by per. sonal battle in the House, resulted in a complete vic- tory for the offenders, one of whom, Mr. McPherson, argued the case against the law officers of the crown, and the foll bench decided by a majority that Mr. MePherson’s demurrer was good. The Attorney General lias given notice of his intention to appeal to the Privy Council.

In some dis- tricts the shocks were accompanied by a loud noise, ‘The present winter has been one of the mildest known. Rains have fallen and already anticipations of a plentiful harvest are indulged in. Pastoral affairs are also looking more healthy, but the ques- tion of “how to dispose of our surplis stock” is still puxeling the squatters. One of the most important items of the month has been the arrangement made between King Thakam- bau, at Feejee, and the agents of a joint stock com- any recently formed at Melbourne, involving the ttiement of the claims of the American govern- ment and the probabie establishment of & British protectorate over the Feejeean group. When the terms of this charter became known to the other white settlers considerable excitement arose, A protest was entered by the British Consul, in which Mt was pointed out that the King had granted power to the new company which he could not i transfer, such as the imposition of taxes, ‘the whole matter awaits the visit of {! of the Australian squadron. agents have taken up a block of land 100,000 acres in ex- tent.

BROOKLYN NAVY YARD AFFAIRS. ‘The United States sloop-of-war Hartford, Captain George E. Belknap, was forthally put out of com- mission at the navy yard at six o'clock on Fri- day evoning last, and is now lying partially dis- mantied at the dock, The crew, numbering upwards of four hundred men, were paid off and discharged and are scattered, doubtless, throughout the country vistiting their homes, from which they have been ab. sent more than three years, the Hartford having been in commission three years and one month, which time was spent in the Asiatic squad- ron, in the China seas. The amount bDursed by the paymaster of the ship among the officers and crew on Frid was $150,000. The wages paid to several of the sea- men and petty officers who had been frugai and economical in their habits on the cruise was upwards of $1,000, sufficient capital to Invest in a respectable ‘business on «hore; but it is doubtful whether @ tru navy blue jacket oan sum up the necessary fortitude to resist the temptation for an extravagant expend ture of hia wages thus earned and put it to any ad.

For their information and that of their friends, however, we remind Goss and Allen the thirteenth Goposit of £10 a side 1s due next week, ‘nat the pie ring is thought of some importance is now deckled by the motion brought forward on Friday evening, July 24, in the House of Commons, during the debate on the Regulation of Ratiways bill, by SirC. O’Loghlen, and answered by Mr. Clay, the extract being as follows:— Sir C, O'Loghien be erie the following clause:— Any railway company at _shall knowingly hire or otherwise provide says jal train for the pur- pose of conveying parties to or to be present at any prize Sight, or who shall stop any ordinary train to convenience or accommodate any parties attending a prize fight at any place not an ordinary station on their line, shall be Hable toa penalt red ices of the county ip a sum way before two E croriaadion roped in which such prize fight shall tempted to be held, of such sum, not heneeare £500 and not less than £200, a8 such justices shall deter- mune, one-half of such penalty to be id to the party at whose suit the summons shall be issued, and ¢ Other half to be paid to the treasurer of the county in which such prize fight shall be held or shall be attempted to be held, in aid of the county rate; and service of the summons under which the penalty is sought to be enforced on the secretary of the com- , &t his office ten days before the day of hear- ie. shall be sufficient to give the justices before Whom the cyse shall come jurisdiction to hear and determine the case. Mr. Ciay thought there was a _ considerable amount of false philanthropy in this matter. If time permitted he would have a great deal to say against this clause. A prize fight might be a very disgusting exhibition, and those who thought it was were not obliged to go to it, He did not go to prize fights, but he was of opinion that the knife would be ttroduced when we got rid of prize Renting. Preparations were made for dividing, but ulti- mately the clause was agreed to without a division. Lively Mill in the London District. {From Bell’s Life in London, August 1.) Once more we are enabled to chronicie another fight, for @ small amount, brought off without the slightest hitch, the seconds and all concerned behay- ing with the utmost fairness, they leaving the ring when ordered, although as a matter of course a lit- tle was done in the “joliying line,” peculiar to the localities from which the principals halied. The competitors were a brace of knights of the trowel, plasterers, named Hurley and Wren respectively, and they having quarrelled more than once a pas- sage of arms was decided upon, and as Hurley was supposed to have had the most experience, in conse- quence of having fought previously, he staked £6 to Wren’s £5. Wren, who hails from Brixton, is nine- teen oe of age, stands five feet four a half in height and weighed on Tuesday 7st. 1b, “This was his maiden attempt in the ring, aithough he has been successful more than once in pedesiclan contests. For the present attair he was tramed by Harry Gold- thorpe, of Walworth, and was in very good condi- tion, Hurley, of, Camberwell, who is twenty-four years of age, stands five feet tive inches, and like his opponent Weighed about 7st. sib. He has fougit once before with Lockey Jones, by whom he was defeated, A start was mude from a station eastward, and after the usual trips by railand boats the authorities were baulked. The ring was soon pitched by the veteran Pagcy White, and the men were in resdin ew minutes after two P. M., Huriey being by M. Dwyers and Andy Sullivan, Wren receiving the services of Tim Collins and Denny Haley. Some time was wasted in the cholce of the referee, but that difficulty being arranged the little ones were left at the mark at 2:28 for the first roun Rownp 1.—Hurley somewhat the longer in the reach, but his blows lacked steam, and he could not stali off Wren in his attacks, and was evidently fought down. RounD 2.—Wren forced the fighting, and, after counters in his favor, he gained the first event—tirst bjood—from a cut on the cheek, and Knocked Hurley fown by a right-hander on the jaw, he being nearly outof time, some state he was; however, he was brought round, Rounp 3.—Wren at once set about Hurley and fought him down, again sending him staggering to the ropes. From this point Hurley gradually recovered, and held his own to the eleventh and tweifth rounds, where Wren again took a slight lead. In the four- teenth the battle was once more in abeyance, and rapid, but not very effective, exchanges passed until they both fell at the ropes, Wren uppermost.

ROUND 21. ji# was a well fought round, con- sidering the capabilities of the competitors, and Hurley showed his improvement by investing twice on the body without a return, Wren just missing with the right at the jaw twice, and Hurley was agatn uppermost in the fall. ROUND 22.—Hurley had much the best of the out fighting, and although Wren was very busy at close quarters he was again under in the fail. ROUND 23.—Wren came up, the tap being turned on from the beak. Rapid exchanges took place until Harley fell, but & up renewed the round, but no damage was done, they failing side by side. Rounb %4.—Exchanges in favor of Hurley, who Vd home on the beak, Wren on the body, and following up with an attempt to invest the right, Hurley ducked and fell.

ROUND 2%.—Wren, when time was called, went to the scratch, his beak dripping ruby, but he would not be denied, and fought his way to a close, when, after a sharp rally, they separated from the force of their hitting. On getting together Wren invested heavily with the right on the forehead, Hurley plant- ing ¥ the throst, and finished the round by throw- ren.

ROUND 31 AND Last.—Time was no sooner called than Wren dashed at Hurley, aud being met with jual resolution, they fought with both hands until ren. av length landed the auctioneer on the jaw, this time effectually placing Hurley hors de combat, and time, with the allowance, having, been calied, the sponge was thrown up, and Wren was halled the inner, after fighting forty-two minutes and twenty- five seconds. Fierce Fight in the Metropolitan District—A, Wattey aed Bob Turner, £10 Purse at Cateh Weight, {From Bell's Life in London, August 1.) These lads, who bail from down the southern side of the river, were picked to dght for a purse of £10 a side, which had been collected by those who have been the instigation of most of the purse fights which have taken place of late.

A Quarantine Plum, New York, August 14, 1868, TO THE HpITOR OF THE HERALD:— Str—There is another one of Dr. Swinburne’s mo- nopoties that should be made public—that 1s, in re- gard to towing vessels from Quarantine to the city. Captains of vessels tellus if they will tow to the city with the Doctor’s tug they can get away at any time; but if the vessel wants an outside boat or to sail up his chances for getting away are slim. If he gets @ clearance and has a tug employed the vessel has to sail out of Quarantine, for the tug 13 not al- lowed in unless employed by the Doctor. Captain Swinburne, of the Quarantine boat Andrew Fletcher, employs outside tugs at the rate of $20 for brigs and collecis $40; $30 to $35 for barks and collects $50. SHIPOWNER, A Few Questions for Dr. Swinburne to i ‘Answer. New York, August 14, 1963. TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD:— Ask Dr. Swinburne how he got the steam ambu- lance Governor Fenton. Ask Dr. Swinburne the reason steamship compa- nies are not allowed to employ their own tugs to tow their ships and bring their passengers to New York. Dr. Swinburne has nearly destroyed the towing trade of New York, A 'LONGSHOREMAN, PROBABLE MURDER—TWO MEN STABBED. Hardly a day passes that the knife is not brought into requisition as a means of settling difMiculties. The latest case reported occurred at No, 615 Bast Fourteenth street, about nine o’clock last night. Jolin Siebert, a laborer, residing at No. 294 East Fourteenth street, while intoxicated mistook the German boarding house No, 615 East Fourteenth street, kept by Jacob Stillwagen, for a lager beer saloon, and on entering demanded a glass of lager. ‘The proprietor informed him that he did not keep the articie and requested him to retie, pointing at the same time to a lager beer saloon opposite, where the article could be obtained. Siebert refused to leave. Stillwagon then collared him and pushed him out through the door. ‘The man immediately after entered, and drawing a knife advanced upon Stillwagen and stabbed him in the neck. Notwithstanding hia wound the pro- prietor of the place grappled the would-be assassin, and with the assistance of his boarders succeeded in putting him out. Siebert was not yet satisfied, and making a lunge through the glass door with his hand inflicted another severe wound in the side of Stillwagen, who was standing inside the door. Peter Globeteur, one of Stillwagen’s boarders, who went to his assistance, was cut slightly in the fore- head in the affray within the premises. The author of the stabbing Immediately left and crossed over to the Eleventh precinct, where he was arrested by ofmicer James Smith and locked up at the Eleventh police precinct. Stillwagen was immediately at- tended by a physician, who dressed his wounds, Jt is said that ata late hour last night he was lying in a dangerous condition and wili not likely recover from his wounds. Globeteur was taken to the Eighteenth precinct, and will appear this morning at the Jefferson Market as a witness against Siebert. Captain Cameron made a requisition upon the Cap- tain of the Eleventh precinct for the custody of the prisoner, and as the affray occurred in the Eight- eenth precinct he was turned over.
