Australian Presents. (frOin'tite Pall Mall pazotie, Letters and newspapers:from Victoria 'help to explain the general disgust of all classes in • that part of the world at the item ' of --C3,500 ;charged' in the'English estimates for. the_ Duke of-dinburg's presents. In themselves, the articles; ao far as they have been publicly am ' kilowledged ) appear to have been, of a very paltry kind. Their only xalue in the eyes of tlie recipients was that they came from the Queen's son as apersonal ' gift, and this value is lost when it is knowu that they were paidrfor by the British tax-payer.” Moreover, when all the Presents to officials and other pub lic persons . are reckoned up, only a fraction of the .f. 5,500 is accounted for, and a member of the Legislative Assembly IL; given notice ofa motion for an inquiry, in order to • discover who received the bulk of the gifts. In short, the view, of the Victorians is • this—if the, presents were to be paid by the mother country they should have been - bestowed openly, and on public grizlitunts .alone, and should, moreover, have been handsome, and. worth baring. If , they Ivere merely : persenal gifts' to intimate private ac quaintances. then the Duke should have paid for them hiMself. especially as he 'accepted :large quantity of costly, articles in return. Meanwhile, the Indiall Government is Per ' , plexed to decide what rule shall be laid down as to the Duke's presents in India. The (been, it is said, forbids him either to give or accept anything; but this will seem very strange ro the native PrinceS, who cannot dissociate ;friendship' and respect' from 'offerings. The proper' course,: it seems to 'us, would; be, to adopt the ordinary rule of the'lndian service, that all:guts received hi au official capacity sliolAd be surrendered to the Government. who, on 'the other. hand; should provide the 'articles to be given in return."

Dr. Gross and Dr. .Pancoast testified that Dr: Herman called upon them to have'a, con sultation, in regard to a man that had been injured iu a fight; found the injured man in an insensible condition. In the other portion of their testimony they corroborated the state- Molts of Dr. Herman. In Dr. Gross's opinion, the man died from tetanus. It may have been produced by extreme violence about the re gionof the stomach.
