The Napi arrived on Saturday morning from Russell, with fourteen passengers from the brig William Wallace, Captain M'Clement, which arrived at the Bay of Islands on Monday week, the 13th instant, on her way from San Francisco to Melbourne. The William Wallace, with 49 passengers on board, sailed from San Francisco, for Port Phillip, on the 26th of June, and touched at the island of Wytutake, one of the Harvey Group, on the 4th of August. She left one of her passengers there who was so ill that he preferred remaining on the island under the care of the Missionary rather than proceed to sea in this vessel. She was but ill found on starting — but having been eleven weeks out before she reached this coast her provisions had become so very short, that she was obliged to touch at the Bay for supplies and to repair damages sustained at sea. A number of her passengers, on hearing at the Bay of vessels being laid on at this port for Port Phillip, left her, and have come on here to take their passages by other vessels. The news of the richer diggings of Australia had created much excitement all over the California mining districts. English, Irish, and Scotch miners, and those from the British North American Colonies, as well as many of the Americans themselves, were preparing to leave California for a country where they may as remuneratively, if not more so, follow the avocation of their choice under the protection of laws which afford security to both life and property. Several vessels had sailed and others were about to sail with passengers for the Australian Colonies. The Orpheus, ship, and the Ceres, brig, had sailed for New South Wales about a week before the William Wallace; and the Europe, ship, the first of a line of packets to leave San Francisco monthly for these colonies, was to sail about a week after her.

We regret our inability to publish a list of the persons who have taken passages to leave the colony by the William Hyde, as we have been enabled to do in other instances, especially as the vessel is likely to sail before another paper is issued. The vessel had not been cleared out at the Customs at the time of closing yesterday evening, and though we applied repeatedly to the agents for the list of names we could not obtain it, owing to some disinclination on the part of Captain Applewhaite to publish an incomplete list. Her mail is announced to close at 4 o'clock to-day — it is therefore intended she should sail on Thursday; but even if she should not leave till Friday, the publication of the complete list of passengers on that morning will not be of much public use, however well the withholding of it till then may serve private ends.
