NEW SOUTH WALES.
Sydney, January 7. The inquest on those killed by the collapse of the Old Volunteer Artillery Hotel, on Friday last, commenced today, when the jury found that the City Corporation had been guilty of great negligence. The Coroner intimated to the jury that the verdict was tantamount to one of manslaughter, but the jury declined to alter their verdict. Reports have just come to hand from the chief wheat districts that the crops are suffering very materially from the ravages of rust. The steamer Centennial will be appraised and sold to satisfy the claims of the owner of tbe collier Kanahooka. i
