MELBOURNE.
[Bv Electric Telegraph.] Tuesday, 6.30 p.m. Nicholson, Chief Secretary, returned for Sandridge by a majority of 10 to 1. M'Culloch, the Treasurer, polled 1266 and Gray 960 for East Melbourne, giving M'Culloch a majority of 309. This election settles the fate of Convention, their strongest man being defeated in their stronghold. At' allother places Ministers are secure. To-morrow will be a public holiday to celebrate the majority of the Prince of Wales. Great disgust is felt at the non-arrival of the mail. China news to the 9th August states that Canton was quiet, not sympathising with the conquerors at Peiho. The British were taking precautions. India news to the 22nd September mentions that . the army was quiet and more satisfied.-— Sydney Morning Herald, November 9.
