F O R E IGN SUMMARY. The Cltr,micle Paris correspondent, writing, Tuesday evening-, states that a dispatch has been received from Pius IX., whidl, while stating his readiness to under- take the journey to attend tlio Etnporor's coronation, expresses a doubt if he can come before the month of August. The Sacred College had not yet come to any resolution as to the terms on which it would give its consent to the journey. This delay is very annoying to the Emperor, who is still anxious that the corona- tion should take place without delay, and it is said that in his impatience he was heard to declare that he would be crowned in the month of May, whether the Pope came or not. The general belief is that the Pope will certainly come, whatever time may he iix-ed on. A telegraphic dispatch from Vienna, dated Much 14, announces the death of General ilaynaii, without giving, however, any particulars. The Emperor had been received the night before at the Imperial Iiieatre with the greatest enthusiasm. By the Indian mall, we learn that the King of Ava is dead. The succession to the Throne is disputed, and one of the competitors is about to open negotiations with General Godwin, who is at Meaduy. It is satis- factory, however, to learn that the health of the troops is improving. The Chinese rebels are advancing they have taken the town of Han Kow Chin, on the Yantszekiang, and their intention is to advance and capture Nankin, about 650 mdes distant from Hall Kow Chili. Other towns are said to have fallen to the rebels, and consi- derable quantities of military stores to have been cap- tured by them. They appear not to molest the people, and do not retain the places subdued, but keep ad- vancing. The accounts from Australia by this mail bring news from Sydney uptothecloseof the.year,& from Adelaide to Januiry 16. The yieidofgoid from the Victoria diggings alone amounted to about 100,000 ounces a- week, in spite of the attractions of tiie Christmas holi- days, and the scarcity of water iu some localities. Twelve thousand emigrants and a hundred and fifty- two ships had arrived in Port Philip during the month of Decemberbut though such an eu(>rrn!'l,!j accession to the population had been naturally atten c with some inconvenience, nothing approaching o suffering had occurred. About 400,000 gold is reported on the way to Knglan e Melbourne ./irgus reports the yield ot g°'1 "P' 0 December 30, 1S52, in round nutnbers» ounces, which, at 70s. per ounce, »o00 sterling; but its intrinsic value is certamly more, nearly I:> £ 16,000,000 sterling. Three several gold- fields-Mount Aiexander, ilallarat, and the Ovens, are now being advantageously worked. I he aston- ishing richness of Mount Alexan er is evidenced in the large amounts which it yie,c'> 110tvvithstanding the immense quantities that have already been diawn from it. The whole country thereajotus appears to be more or less auriferous. iiaharat diggings are again rising into favour, and their productiveness is being more fully developed. The report from the Melbourne labour market states that work was abun- dant and wages high. The limes' Melbourne correspondent states.-his belief j that the gold fields of Australia are of such all exteut that they wiil yield the precious metal la at least the Siliue proportion as hitherto for centuries to come. H« warns all emigrants, however, that bard labour is necessary — cleiks, aud others, not used to hard work, had better stay at houie; the place is over-stoeked with them. all,1 the) ate starving. Even with the severest labour at the gold diggings it is 0.sheer lottery. A telegraphic despatch from Liverpool announces the arrivaluf the Arctic from New York, with the I resident s inaugurative message, delivered on l'ie ^th of ilarc i. Oiie-lhiul of (headdress is occupied in a icv.ew of the j progress of the United States since the revolution, and the increase of power aud territory acqu'rod by tne fe ie- ration since thr.t period.

The space at our disposal (Ipswich E.cpreu) does not enable us to give the whole of Mr. Piersou's exceilent paper, uut our readers will gather his views from the following recdpi- tulaiion of his subject:—"I think we have now examine i the origin, progress, and bearing of theLtw of Settlement which denied to every man a settlement in 15.534, paiisheS except one. We have seen that the law originated unex- pectedly, and wag recommended, ou false pretences, in the rennet CharleS the II.; that it has impeded the labourer without giving hiln aa equivalent for the restraint 011 h 3 liberty aad prosperity that it has encouraged idleness, and made stagnant the pauperism it created that it has pre- vented the supply of a respectable population to t':e p aces where sresh hands were wanted, and thus destroyed the field of the ivigli,li employment,—alluring the Irish, and eve" affording them bounties to supply the place of the S:lglióll laboaier; Ihat it his never benefitted oae parish, hut by 'l|t! injuiy oi another; that it has given oeea-ion for the gieatc'1 mass of dispute and li'igation ever witnessed iu all)' 11 \llv,l. And I think we can see for ourselves at the present tmie. that the k:nd-i:itentioned amendment* of the law by t),lJ Acts of Geo. II., and 0, 1', 11, and 13 Vic., have i.ot re- moved the evils of the Lv-v of Settlement. I come, then, to iliis conc'-ujion -That the onlv course cons stem wiih ttie public weltaie, is to repeal the power of removal ;,y war- rant. which should extend to Scotch. Irish, and Eng-i-'•» vagrants, and thus to abolish the Law of Settieme it. and to make every m 111 a free mail.

That destitution shou1'' be the only title to relief, aud that all residing within boundaries of a Poor Law Union should b ? maintained by that Unum and vagrancy punished with the utmost rigour of the law. In conformity with tins suggestion, 1 therefore say, it is wrong to tie the English labourer by legal testrai"1 to his Settlement parish, aud I .say it is rig.ht he should be free. To do this we mu-t frame a law thu every „„:on he. iu and after a period to be nam- »'> union fwr ra-in^ according to the IW I^w A n, odtnent Act, dispensing w:,|, t|lB co„jfrit of tne g iar llans.

He quite agreed in the opinion that every man in a state of de-utn- tion shou'd he relieved wherever his destitution happened to overtake him, and that his relief should be charged upon the general fund of the union. It might be disadvantageous to some parishes at first; but this could be remedied by having an average rate to extend over a period of years.
