Adelaide, May 16. Tiik Orient Company's R.M.S, Sorata ar rived from London this morning. Passen gers for Auckland :—Mr and Mrs Wilhelm Schmidt, Mr R. Morales. Th» Canadian Rebellion. London, April]o, The latest Canadian news shows that Riel'a rebellion in the north-weat is assum ing proportions much beyond original an ticipations. The white settlers in the north-west provinces are formulating griev ancos, while almost the entire Indian popu lation beyond Winnipeg show signs of re volt. The Dominion Government has a serious contest before it. The theatre of the present insurrection is five hundred miles further from Ottawa than that which Lord Wolsoloy quelled in 1870. Troops are now on thoir way, and will bo concentrated at Guappello, where General Middleton is awaiting them. A partial advance haa already been made to Touchwood Hill?. Louis, Prince Albeit, Humboldt, Battleford, and Fort MeLeodaro beleaguered by Indians near Fort McLood, which is near tho American border. All tho Indians aro on the warpath. Several tribes are marauding about the country, killing cattle, steal ing the horses, and threatening the settlors' Hvoß. The insurgent Indians are being joined by Indians from tho Unitod Stateu, though the authorities at Montana aro co-operating with the Canadian Government, and doing their beßt to provent the Indiana or Fonions from United States territory crossing the border into Canada, (t is estimated that nst less than 4,000 Indians aro on the warpath. Communica tions on tho Pacific railway aro threatened at several points to the westward of Guap pello. Riel has a large force at Clark's Crossing, beyond Humboldt, whore tho road crosses the Saekatchewau River. The Paulo on the Stock Exchange. London, April 10. The news of tho battle en the Afghan frontior producod a panic on 'Chango, whiob wa9 only paralleled by tho outbreak of tho Franco-Gorman war.

Next to Russian stock tho heaviest fall was in Egyptian Uniteds, which declined 5J par cent., preference 7 por cent.; and tho Turkish Joan of 1871, 6i por cent. Italian and Spanish stocks also fell, and Hungarian issuos wore all lower. Suez Canal declined SJ por cent. Railways also fell. On the provincial 'Changes tho recoipt of tho news caused great commotion, and at Manchester and Liverpool led to an almost completo stoppage of business, but tho markots recovered latter. It is etatod by tho " Daily Nowa" that tho aggregato values of securities affected foil within a few hours so much as to represent v dopro ciation of £ 100,000,000.

NEWS BY THE S.S. TRIUMPH.

By the b.b. Triumph, which arrivec} from Sydney to-day, we have one day's later dates from Sydney. Wo cull the following interesting items :— Cruise of IIM.S. Undine H.M.S. Undine arrived in port yesterday morning from the New Hebrides, via Noumea, anchoring in Farm Cove about noon. She has been away from here sinco tho I3th of March, and during the interval has visited most of the islands ot the New Hebrides group. The natives were found to bo quiet. It was as certained during tho cruise that the Fronch authorities had taken action in the case of Joseph Booth, a British subject in tho em ployment of the French company, who was murdered at Port Stanley about a year ago, under circumstances already related. An armed party was landed from a man-of-war, which attacked the villagos known to contain the mur derers ; and in the action which onsued two of the natives were killed and six captured, including several chiefs. These were con veyed to Noumea, where they are now in prison. With regard to the murder of a British subject named Peter Gallon, who was in the service of the German Company on a little island to the southward of Mnlli colo, where he was staying when he snot with his fate, the German Consul at Nou mea was engaged in making inquiries into the matter, as nd German man-of-war was available for tho purpose. It will bo re membered that the German agent and two native servants were killed at tho same time as Cullen. A Missionary Threatened. At Tauna one of tho missionaries, tho Rev. Mr Gray, had been informed by the natives of his village that some of th& resi dents of an adjoining villuge had threatened to shoot him, but for what reason was not stated. Mr Gray, however, informed Lieut. Cross, the commander of tho Undine, that he felt perfectly safe under the protection of the chief of tho villago in which ho carried on his labours. Tho only circumstanoe that gave colour to tho threat was that ono Sun day, while service was being performed by Mr Gray in thechurch.two oftho ill-disposed natives woro discovered prowling round about the building armed with guns. When disturbed thoy promptly decamped. Tho natives of Mr Gray'B village, determined that no ill shall befall him, mount guard round his house every night fully armed, Outrage by French Traders. At Eepiritu Santo, Lieutenant Cross was informed that tho maaters and crow of the French schooners Ambroa and Idaho had, some two or three months previously, at tacked and burnt a village on that islnod, alleging as an oxcuto for their conduct that tho natives had stolon n boat from one of their traders. Tho French authorities took action in tho matter by arresting tho captain, mate, and recruiter of tho Ambroa, and taking them to Noumea, where they are now in prison. The French gunboat Bruat visited the scene of the out rage with the intention of arresting the captain of the Idaho also. But when the Bruat reached there it was found that the captain had deserted the vessel and hidden himself away in the bush. He had not been found at the time the Undine sailed. On April 3, at 4 p.m., and when tho Undine was near Havannah Harbour, the schooner Windward Ho was spoken. On being boarded, a man named Springfold was found with one of his hands blown off. It appeared that ho had been fishing with dynamite some ten days previously, when the accident occurred, and, as no medical aid could be obtained, the wounded limb was in a dreadful stato when Dr. Rolands, of the Undine, saw it. He attended to the man sufficiently toonablehim to goon toNou mea. The French authorities have Btopped recruiting in the New Hebrides group, pending the decision of the French Govern ment, who, it is said, intend to take the labour traffic into their own hands. It would seem that the natives are getting very shy of going away from their homes at all, as two vessels which were recruiting when the Undine was there—one for Samoa and the other for Honolulu—had been un able to eet a single recruit. Captain Mo- Leod has resigned hia connection -^ith the French New Hebrides Company, and has started tradjng apaong the islands on his own account, having purchased the schooner Windward Ho for the purpose.
