[Latigltlei-.] AUSTRALIA. RAPID lrtcrtnsn or Vict-ottis.—'l‘hsre is now lying before its a document of great interest and im ortance—the anniver- sary Address of the Chairman of ‘the elbourne Chamber of inmates, on t e occasion of the annual meeting of the lat of April, 185'). The 1st of April, 1851, found Victoria still hang- ing by a thread to the older colony-of New South Wales. and it was only trcm the _lst of July, 185i, that she commenced her career as an inde ndent colony. At that time the population of the colony of ictotia amounted to about 70.000 sou ; it is now computed at lI5,000 persona, to which thirty or forty thousand at least must have been added. of wltose arrival we have no information. 'l'be imports had gradually risen -from a hundred and fifty-one thousand ounds in IBM. to seven hun- dred and forty-five thousand in 18 ; but in I851 they- exceed- ed this sutu by no less than three hundred and eleven thousand pounds,having risen to the extraordinary atuount of £1,056,000. f we turn to the exports, we find thatotliey had increased from two hundred and fifty thousand pounds in I844 to .€l.042. in 1850, and that in 1551 this amount was again increased by nearly .€400.000, the value of the exports of that year amount- ing to £1 ,4'23.000. Of this increase about £145,000 is-due to gold. In 1846 the population of Melbourne was l0,95-I, in l85l it had increased to 23.143; at the same periods the popu- lation of Geclong had increased from 2065 to 8291-—a rapidity of increase, we believe, almost unparalleled. ‘ EMIGIIATION To Aus'rrt.ir.iit.—-The crown revenues of New South Wales and the adjacent colony are estitnatesl to produce £1,000,000 per annum. and if a moiety of this were devoted to the purpose of defraying the direct cost of the passage of an emigrant from England to Australia, say £10 per head, men, wonten,and children included, the result would be an accession to the colony of 50,000 souls per annum.

Soon after his marriage. he carried his wife to see his parents. and there met the young lady, his former love, to whom he appeared to have been devotedly attached. Their feelings on meeting over- came their sense of ropriety. and they rushed into each utlier’s arms, embraced, an were melted to tears. This seems to have revived, in a ten-fold degree, his love for her: and after carrying his wife back to her parents. said that he would go to 'l‘ro'y and mail a letter, which he had written‘. but it appears he came to the determination on the way to destroy himself. which u did. in the manner above described."

We transcribe the remarks of our Canadian contemporary. for the sditicstion of those in our own Colony. who have hitherto pretended to IIIQOVQI 8'?“ beauties in the elective principle. as applied to the Legislative Council.” In what particular school of Logic the editor of the Royal Gazette has been educated, we are unable to say; his method of. reasoning being conformable neither to the syllqgietic nor the inductive modes. A Canadian proposes that there ahoul be an Elective Council for United Canada, under the supposition that such a Body is indispen- anbly ncceasar . the flrut of his resolutions be to that effect.

Nor is this the least disgusting part ofthe force. In- stead of openly nvowing their respect for the republican form of government, rind making it their tiiodel, and turning plitcemen and pensioners out of the legislature, and keepin the servants of the Govermnent in their proper place. they pa-rtinticiously hold on to the most objectionable and indefensible pit rt of the mode of administering the public iilfitirs in the Motltcr Country, ttnd coolly advocate the withdrawal of all checks to the populitr will.
