But, since } there is @ very general impression that the popula- tion of Australasia 1s woo limited to afford soope for some years to come for # dividend-paying line being laid, I beg you will permit me lo draw attention wo certain statisiical facts, taken from oficial sources, connected with the colonics of New South Wales, Victoria, Soutn Australia, Queensland, Tas and New Zealand; and these facts, 1 think, will tend to show the erroncousuess of the impreasion. Wear ern Australia has been omitted, a8 | have been una- bie to ootatn the statisucs connected with 1ts Indus tries and progressive strides. lt would be convenient Wo state that the estimated population of the stx colonies above named amounted to 1,697,339 on the Slst December, 1867, aad had 2,100,958 acres of land Under cultivation with waeat, maize, barley, oats, hay, potatoes, tobacco, cotton, sugar cane, grape vu orchards and gardens; also occupied 320,000,000 acres of land under pastoral leases, on which were depasturing 61,602,443 live stock, con- sist of horses, horned cattle and sheep, and, moreover, held tens of thousands of acres under mineral leases, Jrom which goid, copper, coal, kero- sene shale, lead, silver, bisinuth, cobalt and other substances were raised and valued at several millions of money. ‘fo supply the necessities of this population there were no leas than 6,259 vessels en- , With a wial tonnage inwards of 1,964,656, in which were taken sapare Vaiued ab £28,728,968; while the products of tei industry were repre- sented by exports which, valued at £30,403,545, were Carried in 6,680 vessels, with @ Coral tonnage of 2,076,243, The several banks engaged in facilitating this -large commerce showed total assets of £46,066,121, with total liabilities not exceeding 228,100,000. A glance at the statistics bearing on the two other main agencies employed in their daily transactions, namely—the Vost OMce and electric telegraph, can scarcely tail to be of interest. The total of town and miand and ship letvers which passed throaga the Pout Omce numbered 26,739,660, aud the Iniand and ship newspapers are stated at 16,216,604. ‘Tne postage of these lewers and newspapers gave an income of £210,238, but for the conduct of this postal service an expenditure of £469,811 was incurred, exclusive of the ocean subsidies granted by the imperial and local governments. These figures display & commer- cial and social activity that is unprecedented; for if 1 take a young and growing country like Cauada, | find that the Dominion, with a population more than double that of Au showed, in 1866, only 20,000,000 of inland and snip letters as having passed through tts post offices, and as having yielded @ revenue barely exceeding £150,000. With regard to the electric telegraph I have con- fined mywelf to the four colonies of New South Wales, South Australia, Victoria and Queensiand, through whose territory there were 12,182 miles of wire, and along which 570,672 messages were transinisted i 1867, and from whico an income of £9,337 was derived. ‘These figures do not represent the present ex- vent of internal telegraphic communication, ax some thousands of miles of new lines have since then been constructed, and more are being extenacd every day. Within tue last year a submarine cable has Deen laid connecting Austraita with Tasmania. A comparison between the number of inland and town letters passing through the post office and be- tween the telegrams trassmitted shows that for every thirty-seven letters there is one telegraphic message sent. If the same ratio were maintained between foreign or external letters and between foreign or external telegrams, there would be 138,505 messages annually sent—a number, | presume, quite large enough vo hold out prospects of tire liae being a dividend-paying one; but | assume that the tarur on the Atlantic cabics will be adopted, aud will be one shilling for every twenty words per iilty neuu- cal miles of the distance traversed.

Mosear, Nov. 13, 1369, In a former letter from Bombay J sent on the par troulars of the quarrel that had sprung up between the British Indian goverument and the Sultan of Muscat, It will be remembered that the garrison of one of the forts at the entrance of Muscat harbor had the impudence wo fire upon her Britannis Majesty’s gunboat Clyde, and the authorities refused w give a proper apology for the outrage w the Con- sul. No harm beyond the abstract wrong of an in- sult tothe British fag was done, and the fire was only a volley of hat a dozen pieces of musketry. It was clear, however, that unless a proper display of force waa made further and more serious liberties would be taken. A couple of gunboats were, there- fore, despatched from Bombay, and the political agents and consuls from all quarters of the Persian Gulf were summoned to muster round the stall of the Political Kesident, Oolone! Pelly, at Muscat. In Bombay it was whispered that the place would be put voder the Brivtan flag, or tiat, at any rate, atreaty would be exacted ceding ceriaim valuable commercial privileges. Luckily, perhaps, Jor the Sultan, there 18 trouvie in other parts of the Gulf demanding the earnest attention of Colonel Pelly and ail tle naval forces he can mnuster; and in addition to this there ts a bitter and long-standing feud between Colonel Pelly and the Consul at Muscat, which strongly predisposes: the rormer gentleman to run counter to the latter, even at the sacriiice of a little national prestige. Colonel Pelly saw in the aifatr not ¢o much an insult to the British flag as an opportunity so snub the Muscat Consul, by showing wat the inatter about which the latter bad made such @ tremendous fuss was really only @ diplomatic mare’s nest. Under these circumstances it is not surprising that the Sultan has succeeded In maning bis peace with the British lion. When Colonel Pelly and the three gauboats under bus bad to be scaled or “alia” down, and when these difficulties were surmounted three or four mules of dangerous scrub country had to be traversed ere the lake Was reached. ‘I've position taken up by Colonel Herrick was the only ope waich the nature of the country would permit, lor everywhere else the iake 1s surrounded by bush-covered hills of great steepness, the bush reaching down to the ‘water's edge.
