Ausrasnisn Rsti.wns.—The step talten by the South Australians in opening up the navigation with the river Murray having seriously excited the a reheiisions of the commercial interest and the inhabitants of Melbourne generally, will ivc increased energy to the efforts for ma ing a railway from the metropolis to the gold fields in the northern districts. Soon after the discove- ry of gold, when the necessity arose for conveying large quantities of stores to various parts of the interior to feed the suddenly located population, the absence of all means of communication presse heavily upon all concerned. it conse- quence thereof, certain railways were pro- jected, the chief of which was that which was to commence at Melbourne, and run- ning thence to Mount Alexander terminate on the banks of the river Murray. On the estimated cost of this work, viz., £1,000,- 000, the colonial government consented to guarantee five per cent interest tor 2 years, give the company 50 acres ol' land at the west end of the town, and II acres at \’\'illinnistown for termini, and all the

Tits IAIQUEFACTION or THE BLOOD or 51'. JANrJAttiUs.-Tlie Neapolitan question has obtained another result, and has once more directed the eyes ofthe world to our vener- able acquaintance, St. Januai-ins. Few continental countries can boast of an insti- tution professing the antiquity as also the respectability ofthe blood which once warm- the frame of St. Januzirius. hundred years has the blood oftliis martyr- ed Bishop of Naples, who fell under Diocle- tian in the third century, remained in a solid state, and, strange to say, in the very sanie phial. No trickery is possible, for the phial, with its valuable contents, is entrust- ed to the responsibility of the Arclibisliop of Naples and of a special chapter. Once a year, when thousands of believers have assembled, and are prepared to stand and die by St. Januarius in the event ofthe an- nual miracle being performed, a majestic- looking priest presents himself before the awe-struck 'mii|titude, with the miraculous phial in his hand. There is no deception, for in the curiously-shaped vessel, which is not unlike a modern claret jug, hangs the solid blood. A few moments elapse ; thou- sands ofeyes are concentrated on the priest, with an intensity and it silence that convey actual fear. A red drop suddenly trembles on the surface of the solid substance, and, amidst a frenzied shout of triumph and joy from the spectator, it slowly trickles down the glass. Drop succeed drop, and in a short time the miracle is consummated—for the solid blood has become liquid. Now it happened that a courageous man (for an editor of the Constilutionnel who performed what I am about to relate must be possess- ed ofsu ernatural courage whilst enjoying his vacation in Italy), was resent at the last miracle worked by St. anuarius; and he wasso much struck with the solemnity ofthe proceedings, with the fervour of the multitude, and the venerable beard of the oﬂiciating priest, that be instantly put pen to paper and described his sensations to the great marvel of the subscribers to the Con- sliltttioniul. He concluded by denouncing the incredulity of the age which scoffed at the faculties attributed to the saint whose
