VICTORIA. [From the Sydney Morning Herald, Dec. 4.]
Private letters received yesterday by the overland mail announce the arrival at Port Phillip of two American vessels with miscellaneous cargoes, comprising among other things a large quantity of timber, and 1 300 barrels of flour. Upwards of six thousand bags of flour are reported to have arrived from other places. When these arrivals took place, flour fell from £40 to £25 per ton; but when it was ascertained that such a small quantity had arrived in the American ships, prices rallied to £30 ; but there was no disposition to buy at that prfce. Mr. J. Raleigh, merchant, had died. We have no other news of importance.
