DOMESTIC INTELLIGENCE. IMMIGRANTS BY THE GENERAL HEWITT. -The single females from this vessel were landed last Saturday. They are spoken of as a suitable class of immigrants; and much praise is given to the Surgeon Super-intendant for the creditable manner in which he has brought them out. They have been open to hire at the Depot since Saturday last. The average scale of wages is quoted at from £30 to £35 for single men; £40 to £45 for married couples, and £16 to £25 for female domestic servants. MUTINY ON THE HIGH SEAS - Two of the seamen belonging to the "General Hewitt, '' immigrant ship", were brought up at the Police Office on Saturday last, on a charge of mutiny on the high seas, and assaulting the captain. 'The case was re-manded to Tuesday next.

REFUSING DUTY.-.Ten of the seamen of the immigrant ship, "General Hewitt," were charged at the Police Office last Saturday with refusing to perform duty on board. These were Francis Williams, James Goodridge, Samuel Brown, Daniel Miller, William Harvey, George Phillips, Antony Gasper, John Parry, Frederic Howson, August Pergand. This case was remanded to Tuesday next. NEW PUBLICATION.- We have received a copy of a pamphlet entitled The settle-ment of John Batman in Port Phillip" published by George Slater', Bourke-street, Melbourne. 'This pamphlet should be in the lands of every one desirous of an acquaintance with the early settlement of Port Phillip. Copies may be had at the Guardian Office. THE JOURNAL OF AUSTRALASIA.—We have to acknowledge receipt of the Sep-tember and October numbers of this very promising periodical. These two numbers fully sustain the character of pleasing variety and general interest and informa-tion, earned by their predecessors. Copies may be had at the Guardian Office. THE NEWS LETTER OF AUSTRALASIA. -This sheet well carries out a good idea. In the numbers of September and October we observe increased excellence. The spirited publishers of this and the Journal of Australasia is George Slater, 94 Bourke street, Melbourne. Copies may be had at the Guardian Office. INSOLVENCY CIRCULAR.—We have to acknowledge receipt of the October sheet of the Insolvency Circular, published by Messrs. Grundy and Cooke. It furnishes a great deal of useful, statistical, and per-sonal information in the Insolvency line. DUNDAS AND FOLLETT.— CONTESTED ELECTION.— It was generally understood in town that Mr. Ebden was to contest the Election with Mr Griffith, it appears, how-ever, as will be seen from our report else where, that Mr. J. Wilson, of Timms, Wilson and Co., has been brought forward for Dundas and Follett, in opposition to Mr. Griffith. DECEASE.—We have the melancholy duty of announcing the decease of Mr. Leadbetter of the Bank of Australasia in this town. The deceased was up the country on leave of absence for his health; took cold on, Thursday last and died on Saturday. Mr. Leadbetter was much esteemed in this town. JOHNATHON WILD—A sporting youth at Muntham, who wears this ominous ap-plication, took it into his head to go duck shooting the other evening. At the first shot two came down, to w--. Johnathan and the gun, and the ducks were consid-erably alarmed. R. PARKER.—"You're a great sheep" said King Bungary to the ho-y-s-t-l--r who bu--t his m---- at Koroit " I am not a sheep! I'm a ram"!. "Then you should get your horns p--ed "' ! said the King. "I've no horns. I am of the white laced breed." "But if you had a halter round your neck," said King Bungary "your lace would be whiter still." CAN'ISa SAoACITY.-?
