We find this announcement in the Sydney Herald : — ' It will be remembered that in the month of July, 1863, the Mudge9 mail w«.s robbed of a very large amount of notes of the various banks of Sydney and Melbourne, which were being transmitted from their branches to the head office of the Australian Joint Stock Bank iv Sydney. This bank sued the Oriental Bank ibrpaiment of its notes, offering to indemnify that institution against loss for siach of its notes as might be afterwards presented for paymeut. A verdict was returned in favor of the Australiau Joint Stock Bank, against which verdict the Oriental Bank appealed to the Privy Couuci). We understand that the Oriental Bank has now abandoned snch appeal.' During the last week or two a deadly feud has raged between the John Bull and the Saturday Review. In the last number is the lollowing : — Recipe. The last New Dish in the ' Lady's Own Cookery Book.' J Take vulgar selfishness, ignoble birth, Heart that's been drain'd of every drop of worth; With these, in empty skull, mix well conceit ; Warm over senile profligacy's beat ; Slum oft" each smallest grain of honor, truth, Extract all innocence and hope from youth ; To poison, these in rabid hate, distil, Then with brutality the vessel fill, Serve up, with lies that ne'er a woman's pure, And name the mess — * A Saturday Reviewer.'
