SYDNEY.
16th Instant. After a week* debate Government has carried the resolution fixing the rice duty at £2 per ton. The report of the Riverine Gnuneil meeting, published in to day's Herald, eveites much attention, and will probably destroy any sympathy felt here for that di-tr;et.

The Cooma mail robbers are captured. Rockhampton advices confirm r'enort.s of the prevalence of pleuio-paeu-monia. There aie irood accounts from Peak Downs D'-c^in^s. The volunteer review was very successful '; la£ge attendance. Great anxiety prevails lespeetiug the non-arrival of the mail.
