The :_evrs from the seat of war is Hungary cows is Isn't such a piecemeal tishion, and S./ obviously "cooked" (to are the railway phraseology). that it is net easy to extract a coberent and intelligible record of operations from it. We shall do our best to phew. togethf-r the Litt st items, so as to indicate their bearing on each other. We refer our rtry!ers at the same time to some items of intelli gence r.sceiveri rid Comita , tinople (wirier will be found under tee head of Turkey), r ether at 'aria. ce with some of t'Ar accounts received ti.rongh our ve.tern channels. . . The prineitel derumenta are—the bulletin of Dem binski (or the ballein attil.uted to him), which was published in the Cotopic Carets of the 17th ine., and in our S oturday's impression; bulletilis from Bayi an (or fabrication@ bearin‘ that designa use), of the sth and Sir int., one of which and the subitance of the other are published in the Vienna papas; and a Itiusign balletin, published in the Ber lin papers, the dtte of which is not given. The Dem binski and Haynau bullying relate to the fortunes and movemonts of the first-nomsd general, the Rus sian bulletin to thee' of Giirry. Great and well-founded doubts ere thrown by German journaliits on the authenticity of the Haynes bulletins. Their style, it is reinaiked, differs essen tially from the earlier bulletin@ attributed to him; and it is added that, seeing the communication be tween Vienna and the interior of Hungary is at mecnt cut c ff, it is difficult to conceive how these bulletins react el the capital. On the other hand, we must coulees that the bulletin attributed to Dem binski also his something sus: idols about is. H o w did it pass the Russian or Austrian frontiers, and reach Colegne? Our I,ttst intelligence front Perth —from a source personally known ti us and relied upon by us—is only to the 6th of July, and bud to make a drier far to the cast ere it reacted us. We now turn to Oiirgey. The Russian bulletin re lates to an affair between this commander and Goabbe. Grub., it is said, who had been previously posted in the bill towns, 1. ft them to follow Giirgny on Lie munch from Wad& n to the Thetas. He r. ached Putnok on the 20l . h ult., and received on the 27th orders from Paskiewitch (whose heal-quirters were then Tiara- Fund) to marth by Miskolc: and Tokay, in older to effect a junction with him. Bat Gorge, hid already thrown himself between them. Grabbe 's corps came into contact with Giirgey's on the 28th, at ()nod, an retion took place which is thus described in the Russian bulletin : " The rebels receive! us with a fire from 40 pieces. Oar batteries were worked with great order and cool- WWI, particularly the first, which was exposed to a heavy cross-fire from those of the enemy. After four hours had lapsed Generol Grabbe became convinced that it was impossible to drive back the enemy, who were advent ige male pasted, and whose guns were of heavier metal. He there fore withdrew, and took up a strong position between Onod and Moikolc& This movement was effected with great order and coolness. But as the enemy took possession of the defiles of Miskolc: and Gorom hole, General Gribbe again fell back to the village Peter, and thence to Putnok." These arc the words of the Russian bulletin. It appears then that :-1. Grabbe has been unable to effect the junction with Paskiewitch, commanded by the latter. 2. Grabbe's coeps was beaten in the batik between Onod and Miskolcz, and driven back among the hills about Putnok. 3. Giirgey holds posses sion of the Mitholcs road (with forty heavy guns), and commands the fords of the Theis, in the rear of Pask switch. The Bud on bulk tins further admit that Sicken, as well as Grabbe, has been unable to elf et a junction with Paskiewitch. Sacken found the bridge across the Hernad destroyed, and Gurgey stronely posted by the village Gesstele, on the opposite side. To force the passage under these cir comostaaees was impossible. The position of Gtirgey at the confluence of the Selo with the Hamad, and of their united streams with the Theirs, is a most favourable one, and almost unassailable. Theat Tuns marshes of Solymoe, Towles, and &y cover his rear against any attack from Paskiewitel; or Tscheodaje ff. Oa the right flank he is pro kicted by the Taktakcz islands—islands intersected by marshes; and in front he has two rivers. In addition to this he commands the passages of the Thetis and the line of cemmunication from Miskolc: to Perth and Kewhau. Ile thus renders the junction of Grahbe, Sicken, and Paskiewitch impossible, and may possibly thatr..y entirely the corps of the first named general. Theltossiaa bulletins also show that the report of Pas kiewiteh's entry into Debreezin was premature. lie had given up the idea of marching directly upon that place, because there was no water fit to drink at the intermediate halting-place. On this account he fol lowed the course of the Theism to the village of Cage, ',them he was still on the Ist inst., awaiting impa tiently the arrival of Grabbe end Sass. On the 2nd he proposed to advance to Ujvaros, on his way to Debretain. Here is the letter of our Vienna correspondent : VIENNA, A1:01311 14. Tte most important rein from the seat of war is contained in the bulletins of Harlan of the sth and Bth, particularly the latter, of which as yet only an trztract is given. Nothing further is heard of au thentic about Paskiewiteb. The news of the last week has been such as to calm in some measure the consternation inspired by the re cent reverees about Comorn. A victory has been won over Hem. Etyma and Paskiewitch having bath succeeded in forcing the Theis', are marching upon the main fortresses of the great plains, Temeswar, Ar ad, and Grosswardein. Thellan is said to have formed a junction with the Austrian Commander-in-Chief. Grabbe and Osten-Sacken are commissioned to keep Gorgey in check, while Paskiewitch is advancing to wattle Grosswardein. Dembinski, according to official notices, is retreating, followed by Austrian troops, to wards Arad, where the Magyars are concentrated After the enemy had been driven on the 3rd of August out of Uj•Ssegegin, on the left bank of the Theirs, and the tete de pony there taken and occupied by our troops, he took op a strong position before Sear.' and 0 St. Ivan y, and en trenched himself upon the mole leading from the Maros to the latter place, in order resolutely to oppose our debauching from the tete de pont. The insurgent. had assembled here snider the command of Dembinaks, Menne, Desewffy and Ouyon, more than 30,000 men, with 40 or 50 guns, the lanesturm not counted. This afternoon the Austrian resent corps, the cavalry division of Beckthold, the main artillery re serve, and the Russian division of Paniutine debruched from the tete de pont, and insulted the enemy's position. While the division of cavalry went round to turn the enemy's left wing, the whole artillery reserve faced the battrries of the enemy that were established behind the mole, while the re. serve corps advanced along the Maras upon Store, The battle was decided in a few hours by the inspcsing artillery we brought into action, as wall the distinguished bray ry of the troops who served it under the conduct of the active and circumspect director of the field artillery, Oen. Haustah, and of Major Schmidt, ow morder of t he maw romorro. TM Mid sod deoldol Si voice of the reserve seeps, supported bye brigade of the Haden division of Penintine,"contributed sden in a special ile,ree to this end. Ors. Prince Frans Lichtensteio, who led this assault of the left wing, distinguished himself grealy by his coviness and coning., and had a • sham in the results of this day. By sunset the enemy was expelled from sill his trenches and from the mole, Snireg stormed, and our adversaries in full retreat. Nightfall screened them from purmit. The enemy's loss is, howevi r, very considerable, the field being severed with killed and wounded. Five cannon were taken, 'ad 400 prisoners, smonv whom is Prince Wornni.sky, edomd of a regiment of Uhlins. Our loss is from 10 to 16 • and 9.5 wounded. Amongst the latter, I regret to say, is the distinguished general Renedek, who notwithstanding his slight wound went seats into action, and was hurt, hut not severely, in the right foot, by • fragment of a grenade. Lieu'. Bison Berliehincen of the cuirassiers was also wounded, but not severely. Beth the Austrian and Russian troops have fought with distinguished bravery, and even enthusiasm. The impres sion which this resolute spirit made on the enemy wee no! to he mistaken. The let army corps eetered Usk* on the 4th, and threatens they enemy's line of retreat. Many long detained in captivity keys been set free, large stores of pro vides, collie Ad for the insurgents have been found, and generally severs teases inflicted on them. In the meantime Oneoral Itiamberg forced the passage of the nein with tree 3rd coon d'mvs4, at Manisa, in the face of • Id Aent con none& ; tok 3 guns and many prisoner,. By them enm. pined manmarres, so rich in result., the whole army has been ones more concentrated, and will to-morrow with day break crustiest, the pursuit of the enemy. HeadAnarters, Szegedin, Aug. 5, 12 at night. Baron lIATNAV, Fs Idiengsneister, and Commander-in Chief of the Army. Later news than Ilaynen's bulletin of the bth inst. has been just received from that general, dated on the Bth, when the head quarters were at Loerin. He expected to be shortly at Temeswar. The enemy retreated in all directions; 2,000 prisoners had been brought in. Weldon has sent a fresh circular round to the offices of the different newspapers, etrictly forbidding printed news from the vat of wee which is not t eken fro:n the bulletins. The redree'ions are specially warred to mak no revelations with regard to the positions or strength of the Austrian and lteesian armies. For the first transgression of this order a heavy fine is inflicted ; for the second, cenfiscetioa and suppres sion. Tee Lloyd and Presse are particularly in stanced as having by their account of the positions and strength of the reinforced corps of General Czorich furnished the enemy with important intel ligence. Four battalions more of the garrison were sent early this mottling to Hungary. For the present these have to much to Oedenburg. The garrison of Vienna consists at present of only 0,000 men ; and even of these 4,000 were destined for Hungary. A courier came in to-day with despatches from the army of the South, announcing that the Ban had, after a eanronade, occupied Perlees on the Bth. The enemy, although pretty strong in number, showed ►ittle re sistance. Up to the latest news no change had taken place on the Upper Danube. A general attack was expected to-day on the part of the Austrians. It is known that Czorich before his attack by Klapka on the 3rd had made frequent representations to the ministry as to the weakness and subdvieion of his forces, which were quite incompetent to make anything like a sham blockade of Cement, and the great danger to which they were exposed. But no attention in the least was paid to these applications for reinforcements by M. Clynlay, who answered that General (Irak would be soon on the spot. Tnere is a report Caret Ofen was occupied by the Magyars on the afternoon of the 7th. Prince Schwarzenburg Lit Warsaw by the train on the 12th to return to Vienna. Two Russian couriers posted on the night of the 12th, with special engines, from Myslowitz to Maczki. We have since received news from Vienna to the 15th inst., the substance of which is as follows : Prince Paskiewitch is said to have addressed a re port to the emperor at Warsaw, dated the 9th, from head-quarters at Debrenin, stating that the 3rd army corps under General Rudiger had occupied Grosswardein, and then, being reinforced, had pro ceeded to Arad. The Russian field-marshal thought of going there too. Col Krussoff bad been sent for ward with a strong division to effect a junction with the Austrian firm's. The same report is said to con firm Haynau's victory at Szegedin, which victory in duced the Russians to cross the Theism. The said Russian despatch of the 9th was announced at War saw on the 13th by 101 cannot shots. News from Warsaw (in an extraordinary supple ment to the Warsaw Courier of the 14th) brings the report of a great battle fought at Nagy Karoly be tween Giirgey and Paskiewitch. Toe details are not given, or have not yet reached us, but the Russians of course claim the victory, and say they have made 6,0('0 prisoners; the date is not given either. Through this same channel we learn that Bem, after his alleged defeat at &hassbnrg on the lit August, had retreated eastwardly to Udverhely and the Moldavian frontier. The Saxon population are described as being very ho.tile to the Magyar cause. When the czar received the news of the victory at Nagy Karoly, he burst out into the most extravagant demonstrations of joy. We have received Titivate communications from Constantinople up to August 5, by which we see that great excitement prevailed in consequerce of the re parts circulated there of Been's victorious career in Transylvania. The prestige of Russia was nearly at an end. Their army of 20,000 had been completely routed, end had fled for refuge to the Turkish territory. Russia was bullying Turkey, and wishing to compel the Porte to take up arms and assume the offensive against Hungary. A courier arrived on the 4th inst. at Sir S. Canning's, the British embassy, with direct news from the seat of war, and they were favourable to the Hungarian cause. The following has appeared in the Berlin papers as the latest intelligence from the seat of war, and which probably reached that capital by some other channel than \ ienna, where nothing now dares be published save what General Welden thinks proper to give forth to the world as official—a very suspi cions circnmstanaa, and in itself quite sufficient to destroy all credit we might be otherwise disposed to give to the Austrian bulletins. G,irgey has closely pursued from Miskolcz General Grabbe, who his been beaten, and is no.v retreating. Grabbe's corps is represented as being utterly demo ralised, and ready for breaking up. Haynau is said to have advanced from Mako to Temesvar, also without resistance, since the Hunga rian troops retired to Arad also. Jellachich left Rama on the 30th ult., and crossed the Danube, to effect a junction with the Servian corps at Titel, as also on the Gth inst. with a flying corps sent by Hayman in the Backs, under the com mand of General Ramberg. Bem had returned from Moldavia with plentiful supplies, and was in the Haromczek. The imperial ists had not succeeded in relieving Carlaburg. A letter, dated the 3rd, from - Bucharest, confirms the news that Bem's irruption into Moldavia was completely soocessfaL ITALY. SARDINIA.—On the 15th ins•. the Sardinian ministry communicated to a secret committee the conditions of the treaty between it and Austria. The chamber was to determine in a secret sitting upon the question of funds to be voted fir the expenses of the late war. LONIBARDY.—The Milan Casette cf the 13th inst. contains tl c proclamation of the amnesty to the Lom bards, which is followed by a list of t he, c excepted from Cie measure. Among the unfortunate people thus riger:.usly treatel are Counts Casati Litta, Crietina, Trivulzio, Prim eases Belgisioso, Cerra' schi, of the province of Miian ; Abbot J. Brombillo, Cata neo, of the province a Como; L► Canozzi, of Ber sault ; Delzim, of Sondrio; the prim st Aposti Fer rante, of Cremona; the advocate, Joseph Cimpans, of Brescia; end Anselm Guerrieri, of :Mantua. Padua, Viceaza, Udir.e, Rovigo, 'Treviso, Verona, and Ro ll vigo furnish 32 names excepted from the amnesty. FRANCE. PARIS, ScNnar, 5.30 P.M. A functionary of same standing under the rigime of Louis Philippe was heard to say the other day that the party of the present majority, by doing what they call l's politique d'ordre, were in reality doing de l's monarchie and truly it would seem es if each would be the case, so milieu' are they to rr-establish these very grievances that were 53 fiercely dimounced at the insti ution of the republic. An instance of this is evident from the study of the finance qu.stion. I: has been seen how courageously M. Prissy has put for ward the situation of the country. L,-t the matter be put straight bet ire us. said every organ of opi nion, and we shell then know what to do. M. Pauly has done this, but nobody is satisfied. The aspect of a direct and irrevocable tax frightens the French, who in finance prefer going round the difficulty to attacking it strait-forwardly; and thus VIJ find that income tax, conveyance tax, and esris on drinks, on a basis differing for the better from the old, are all repudiated by the organs of the majority. Tu repudiere is not to remedy, however, and there the difficulty begins. To-day the Patric attempts to find a sub-titute for the income-tax, which it reps diates, and what will it be thought is the remedy— the re-establishment of the salt-tax. This, indeed, would be a crowning piece of f.lly to all that the party of order and resistance has attemp•td to do.l 'The Petrie comes to these conclusions: That for the ordinary consumption of salt by man price is no consideration, therefore the greatness of price will not influence the quantity c nsumed. Tint as manure fur land its value is null; that for the preservation of forage it is of lit'le importance, but that for the feeding of cattle it is really necessary. Therefore, for the reasons above stated, it is highly politic and pleasant to re-establish the salt-tax as it was of old, merely reserving the question of salt for cattle by an inexpensive process may be rendered fit for no other purpose than that intended. Such is the plan proposed the journal of the banking community, La Patrte, which, of course, highly objects to every shade of an income t'x. M. Poesy will yet carry his proposed measures, with the assistance, probably, of those very men who, in other matters of government, are opposed to the present ministry. The railway question in France also occupied much attention, and amongst other lines, that which occupies most is the line from Paris to the Mediterranean. To-day the Debuts urges the necessity of completin.: this railway as soon as possible. It has been said that government intended to grant the line to a co n pany, and the intention will no doubt be carried out. Two companies had taken the road as far as Avignon before the revolu• ion broke out. A lready, how ever, this Lyons and Avignon Company had found it impcesi bre to meet the difficulties under which it laboured, and it withdrew, sacrificing the caution money of ten millions deposited. No works had been begun. The Paris and Lyons Company began the works on its line, but soon its difficulties were so great that it was evident the task was beyond its strength, and the shareholders refused to answer any fresh calls. The revolution breaking out stopped the whole enterprise. The shareholders had then paid in instalments the sum of 100 millions of francs. The government, with greet courage, purchased the line at 109 f. for every 500 f. share on which 230 had been paid ; that is, it purchased for 44 millions what had cost 100. This, how ever, was better for the shareholdtrs than to lose allege thee. The works were then continued by the state, and during the last six months of 1848, 80 millions were spent on them; 37 millions will have been in the course of 1849 ; and there remains yet to expend 98 millions to finish the line to .Lyons, 24 millions to pass it through that city, and 121 millions to carry it on to Avignon. Thus before the railway can be completed to Avignon it will east 243 millions. The Debate, after stating these facts at some length, shows that the treasury cannot afford 243 millions ; but adds, that even though it could, it is much better (as all will admit) to put the enterprise into the bands of private capitalists. Indeed, it is becoming evident to all that the intermedhling of the state in all such matters only leads to ruin, whilst the encou ragement of private enterprise would lead to the final prosperity of the country. With regard to the Fan ditions much has been said ; but the Debate thiuks them a minor consideration. The National thinks them exorbitant ; and to-day the Conatitutionnel de votes its leader to show that they see not so. Manana,Awes Time pee Cana, 23 acet.•, Five per Cents" 1112 paper. 7 paper.

The second instalment is payable on the 15th November.—Surrey Standard. SOUTH WALES.—The first permanent rail was laid on Monday last at Ramsey, on the Newport road. The works in this town and locality are progressing weseesshire THE Commute' STRIKE.—BIItIfINGHAM, AUGUST 18.—The partial strike of the Staffordshire colliers, which we noticed last week has since spread throughout the entire district, and there are now more than three thousand men out of employ; and at most of the collieries from West Bromwich and Tipton, across the country to Brierley 1611, operations are entirely suspended. Many meetings have Men held duriog the week, and it requires the utmost vigi lance on the part of the police to prevent a general outbreak, and to pneerve from violence such of the men as have re mained at their work. At the meetings above referred to, it has been resolved sot only to resist the proposed reduction in the rate of wv-ges, but even to seek an advance upon those pald previous to the turn-out. These differences seriously items , trading concerns hereabouts ; it is therefore hoped that some amicable arrangement will before long take place. The news by thWarrival is not important. Whilst General Casa is delivering ° Literary Lec tures" in some of the leading univeraitics, and Henry Clay is visiting the Northern States to recruit his health, Colonel Benton is mustering his strength and marshalling his numbers for the presidential cam paign. The southern slaveholders are already launch rag the Arent threate sad dewanciatioas against him, and demand a similar punishment for him to that awarded any individual guilty of inciting slaves to insurrection. In the West his name has been enrolled a candidate for the next presidential chair by several journ&s, and his cause is warmly advocated by several persons of distinctior. In Missouri indications are observable that he will have the state ticket, and in Texas a pronouncement had been already made in his favour. Indetd, through• ut even the south a heartier response has been given the colonel's late speech than could have been imagined some time since. _ - Several elections were to take place on the 6th of August, the derails of which had not reached in time to forward per the Eurcps. The cholera rep3rts prevent almost the same aspect as when we lest heard by way of Bos.ol. The disease is principally confined t 3 the seaport towns, and it is fiend teat the epidemic will continue for some time to make havoc amongst the emigrants who daily urrive. Bishop Hughes, cf New York, is some what censured for overcrowdiug the catholic cemetery by the large ?lumber of interments he penni:s, and for each of which he receives a considerable fee. The accounts in general of the cotton crop, reeeiv, d durit g the week, present similar features to those re ceived for acme time past, the rains in the majority instances having been most prejudicial to the growth of the plant. The tobacco crop is also unfavourably reported of. The late rains have bem in est injurious to the corn crop is several of the rates, and in Arkansas and other districts some of the lands under er,,p had been over flowed. In Virginia, Missouri, Ind Cncinnati, the ac counts were more encouraging than elsewhere. Tue wheat crop hail suffered least and promised beet. Several very useful inquiries are being made by the government into the growth of cotton, ri, e, cane sugar, and other resources of the States, both in the north and smith. Tree government Itu hitherto been very deficient in their statistical information regard ing the capabilities and resources of the Union, at,d this, the first rep towards improvement, is viewed with satisfaction. A railroad convention was taking place at Macon, in the state of Georgia, attended by a largo number of delegates interested therein. The feeling in firour of t'e Hungarians is very much on thi increase. A legion of 1,000 men, with 500,000 dollars, had Di en proposed to be raised to send to the *teat of war ; but a hint that this would be a violation of the neutrality of the country put a stop to the movernt at. The officers f noway serving in Mexico have volunteered, almost in a body, their BA:- vie:tee, if required. Epireapaliene, Roman catholice, and dissenters, all united in the act of humiliation en the 3rd of August, the day appointed by the President of the Unit,d bates for that purpose. In Canada, also, a day had been set apart for a similar purpose.

The accounts from all parts of Canada regarding the growing crops are highly favourable. In Upper Canada the fall wheat is luxuriont and h althv, and the reaping of it very forward. The want of rain felt for a tine time has now bier eupplied. The potato crop looks we'', and hay is an extra yield.

The August session of the above court commenced this morning before the Lord Mayor, the Recorder, Aldermen Pirie, Laurie, &c. There are 238 prisoners for trial. The Recorder briefly chargel the grand jury, observing that all the cases were of the ordioary description, and that none of them presented any leg difficulty. The co urt then proceeded to swear the different panels of petty juries, and to dispose of the batistes of the stetson.

We have received by express our dispatches from India by the Overland Mail. The date from Bombay is July 2, Calcutta July 2, Madras July 9, and Hong Kong Jane 23. The following is the letter of our correspondent: BOMBAY, Jura 2. The last mail front Bombay was dispatched by the steamer Moozuffer on the 25th ult. My present letter go.ts by express to Madras to meet the Calcutta steamer Haddington at that port on her way to Suez. Stirring events appear to be again approaching on the north-west frontier of India, and you may expect to hear of another campaign next cold season. The conduct of Maharajah Goolaub Singh, of Cashmere, throughout the late Sikh war, was at best auspicious to a degree. He was called on by our goverment for assistan-e against our enemies, and this he made a show of affording by dispatching a strong divi.ion of his army under Colonel Steinbach towards the scene of operations. But you will remember that these never came within miles of t' ose with whom they were neugeolly seas to co-opesste,---on the contrary, they arrived within some score or two milts of the army of Share Singh, and there took ap a position, which they maintained to the end, watching the pro gress of events; and it was rumoured at the time that had our arms been unsuccessful they would have joined the ranks of our opponents, and in all likeli hood completed our overthrow. The province of Cashmere was bestowed by us on Goolaub Singh, on condition of his paying a large portion of the indem nity exacted from the Seikhs to defray the expens:s of the war of 18-16-413. Not a penny of this has, I believe, ever been paid by him : the nen-fulfillment by the Srikhs of this portion of the treaty of 1816 was one of the cams assigned by Lord Dalhousie for annexing their country to our dominions in April last. Rumour asserts that Goolaub Singh has been detered in treasonable cot respondence with Dost Mahomed against tv, and that he has been called on to give up his artillery (100 guns) to us as a guaran tee of his peaceable intention.. Ilia answer is said to have been that he himself le .d to objection t r com plying with cur request. but that his troops steu.ly opposed thu measure. This is as much as to say we must take their guns from them by f lye of arms. It will not be lung before this is done if S'r Charles Napier is allowed to have his will in the mat.er. If the demand has been made, complied With it most be, either by volu .•ary surrender nr compulsion; we cannot allow ear will to be baulked in this ease, or ' hereafter any naive prince might urge the in tractibility of his army fur relining to accede to any detnatuds It is. moreover, zeporttd that 1)-wt Mahomed, of Cab el, is assembl ng a large force above the Khyber Pa s, ready for a descent on Peshawur so soon as opportunity offers, which he expects wil! be when the troops now there are marched elf towards Cashmere to enforce the droned made on Goolaub Singh. The foregoing are as yet mere rumours, hut they are supposed to derive strength and probability from the following order, issued by Brigadier Dundas, commondir g the troops at Praha wur, on the 11th inst. This may be merely a pre cautionary arrangement, bit' something certainly must have transpired to induce the authorities to issue it : corps should be sent out to Bengal immediately, and kept permanently in the country. Sickness to a great extent prevails amorgat the Europeans in the Lahore garrison. The trial of Moolraj continued : he had entered on his defence on the 11th June, the eleventh day of the trial. Toe prosecution appears to have established the fact that he had not in any way en deavouted to save our envoys from the fury of the soldiery at Moolta.n, and it is therefore but reasonable to suppose that he knew beforehand of their de:erred , naticn to murder them. Whether he could have averted their fate had he chosen to try, lays to the court to determine, and on this will depend tie cove rity or leniency of his pe nishment. A steamer had reached the Bridge of Boats' near the Wozeerabad (on the Chenaub) on the 14th of Jae°.

The heat of tile weather wa fearful, and nearly the whole of the Eu opeaus of th force were ill in some way. Sir Charles Napier reached Simla on the evening of the 16 h Juae, where were already assembled Lords Dalhousie and Goueh, Sir If. Liut enre, and Major Meeksson. Rumour asserts that the Gover nor-General is about summoning the supreme council thither also for the present, and that the city of palaces wilt not in future be the seat of government, but that it will be established in the north-we stern pro vinces. Alas for Calcutta! all her glory will then haste departed ! 'tVith such a mee'ing of the big wigs as will preaer.tly have assembled at Simla, something of importance must be associated: and this some thing is univc's illy believed to be the Cashmere campaign. Sir C. Napier will, it is said, be at La hore by the middle of the present month (July), to superintend the carrying out of the new Pacjaub arrangements ; and, it he can, there is no doubt bat he will ere bong have measures of his own equally . s important as the se to look after. Lord Gough will not qui.. India till S. ptember next. The gallant vete ran is in good health ; aid, though drawing near threw-score years and ten, is said to have led off a bell with the Comer au of 1 / a lhotrie on the 15th. Au official dinner was to be given by the Governor-General to Sir C. Napier on the 19th. The hull if the ship Lowjee Family, an account of the burning of which in Bombay harbour went home in the Bombay Estes summary of the 25th ult., continued to brim up to the morning of the 29th, when the fire was at length put out. The wreck bad been towed up to within a short dis tance of the shore, near the ApAlo pier, and there beached on the 26th. It was sold on the 28th for 1,170/., the purchaser hoping to realise at lees:. 2,0001. by his bargain, The Lowjeo Family was the sixth vessel which has been destroyed in our harbour in seven years, the value of which cannot t are been far short of 220,010/.
