The "Wizard Oil Prince appears to. have been a sufferer by the stringent enforcement of quarantine laws at Sydney. He arrived, m company with Mrs Weston, having on board a now panorama of the Pacific Railway, at Newcastle, and thence took boat to Sydney. Arrived there, the party proceeded to take " their ease in their inn," "when they were waited upon by the police, and under the proclamation taken iDto custody, and sent down the bay to the quarantine station to undergo "fumigation,'where the Oil Prince will be able to " dig down and dig up another little hymn" for the amusement and edification of .his* partners in exile. ' The report that Sir G-. Bowen succeeds the Governor of Victoria, is contradicted. The ' Melbourne Age' says the Hon. A. Gordon, Governor of the Mauritius, will be. his successor.
