The Post and Dispatch both contain articles severely commenting upon tbe action of the Imperial Government in deporting the Irish informers to Australian colonies. They characterise the course adopted as an insult to the colonies generally, and express their wannest approval of the prompt moasures taken by the Australian Governments to prevent such characters from landing. Mr Trevelyan, the Chief Secretary for Ireland, refuses to stato Avhether the informers on board the Pathan were despatched by that vessel with tho knowledge and acquiescence of the Government. >_ Tho Criminal Jurisdiction Bill, which was introduced by Mr Albert, one of the members of tho Council of India, and the object of Avhich is to confer on native magistrates jurisdiction over Europeans residing in India, is exciting much attontion in England. A large meeting in support of the measure was held in London last night. Mr Bright, the membor for Birmingham, presided, and delivered an address upon the evils existing under the present system of of criminal law in India, and pointing out how the scheme suggested by Mr Albert would remove the present anomalous state of tho matter. Motions approving of the bill were unanimously carried. The parcels post system recently introduced in tho United Kingdom has proved an unqualified success. Tho London agents of the Pathan havo stated that if any Irish informers Avero shipped by tho vessel they Averjin entire ignorance of the fact, the identity of the men not being disclosed. Tho rumor that Motley, ono of tho men • who gavo evidence against Kelly during the Phoenix Park murder trials, had been assassinated in Philadelphia, has been officially denied. It is estimated that the average yield of cereal crops in the United Kingdom, based upon the returns so far obtained from the harvest, is tAventy bushels per acre.
