Sydney, This day. Distress of Bzplorors. News has been received from the Solomon Islands that the foreign immigrants in New Ireland are in great distress, and are suffering from fever and ague, from which four deaths hare already resulted. Forty-fire of the party hare removed to Duke of fork Island. Six weeks after the party landed on New\ Ireland only three were capable of exertion, the rest were prostrated with fever and severe ulcers, peculiar to the island. They possessed no quinine with which to allay their suffering. Their supplies and provisions too were quite insufficient, the Chandernagore having sailed suddenly after the dispute as to the leadership of the party on shore, and left them without sufficient food.
»■. Mklboubne, This day. A party of police which left Benftlla yesterday has arrived at Beeohworth, bvt has seen nothing of the Kellys.
