But we can have rimerse to none of those ways and inventions of oakum fir behind us. The English =hfrom their German cradles, have been soros a do all great and social acts in public. Oar judicial habits especially are stamped at every de re, with that national mark. From the first arrest sad interrogatories, to the final disposal of the crimi nal, the public is called to act its part, often a paiafel one, and often an imperfect mode of pro adore. How many faults may be found with the jury? But the system is English. It has grown with our liberties and has mainly strengthened them. And a derogation from the great principle of publicity in English judicial habits could never be rep&d by any amount of temporary decorum, or any sparing of the serves of the over-sensitive and over-curious.

Ws have all along bad very small faith in the wisdom, or the prolonged predominance of the com bined party of conservatives in France and in its assembly, which emphatic Ally and conveniently style themselves the majority. For, first of all, we do not thick that this majority can keep any one of the promises which it has held out to earth of the parties by whose aid it exists, and on whose support it counts. This majority flatters the legirmists by the hope of restoration of the old monarchy in the person of state V. It flatters the clergy with the expectation of --establishing their old privilege of inheriting, pro curing, and preserving landed proper:y, together with full sway in controlling and impeding the deve lopment of public education. It promisee the army its present large quota from the pubic purse, with the advancement, honours, and legume that accrue to it. It holds out a return of prosperity to all commercial classes, small and great ; protection for the landlord, the manufacturer, the mill-owner, with proscription for the more turbulent republic= chiefs, and repres sion tr the popular party altogether. If it satisfies HENRY THE FIFTH wit' the promise of the throne, it feeds the Orleans family with whet that family most prized, money. All its revenues are paid, and the °rieslings desired no more than in this way to fatten. Now we do not think the majority capable of ful filling any one of these promises. It can as much restore legitimacy, as it can resuscitate the autocracy and the peerage of Louis rue FOURTEENTH. It can no more hand the thirty millions of French men over to be shriven by the clergy, and to take the priests for their confessors and heirs, than it can restore the days of GREGORY and Saint BERNARD. It may hold out to the officers of the army wealth and promotion in return for their acting the part of police men. But the French people will neither continue to respect nor to pay soldiers for supporting despotism and bigotry at home and truckling to them abroad. No degree of rigour or repression will restore con fidence. No dynsty or quasi-dynasty established by or on the system of repression will give confidence sufficient to awaken commercial speculation or excite private expenditure. The French people show daily more reluctance to pay taxes, direct or indirect ; the consumers begin to feel they are more numerous than the producers ; and the liberals begin to perceive that free trade is for their interests and priccipies. There is another party to which the majority made great promises, and of which It made ample use, and to which it seems little ii.c!ined either to fulfil these promises, or to show common gratitude for benefits derived. This party is Louis NAPOLEON. When the name of this prince was first proposed as candidate for the presidency of the republic, we did not credit it. We could not believe that either the monarchists aid reactionists of France would take the representative of the BONAPARTE family for executive chief, without the intention of propelling him to be Emperor; nor did we believe that LOUIS NAPOLEON would condo wend to be the temporary tool of such a party, in order to be served by it as LAMARTINE was—that is, thrown on the shelf the moment he displayed either MOM WAWA AT LONDON 111111191.

I a IT is neither out of any commiseration for great criminals, nor from any regard for the sensitiveness et the refined and educated classes, that we abet the abolition of the punishment of death. That punish ment strikes us uinconsistent with our entire feel ings as Christians—feelinp that regard deathm a far Mho.- light than that of punishment, and which sur round that common fate of all with tenderness and with respect. It was impossible to ham witnessed the execution of the other morning with out perceiving, that whatever was the ribaldry and riot in which those who bivouacked in the open space before the prison passed the night, never theless all were stricken with respect and emotion at the sight of death. All doffed their hats in obedience to a natural impulse when the condemned appeared; and it was no longer the enormity of crime, but the majesty of death, that impressed the mob. We can conceive the maintenance of the punish ment of death in a barbarous and heathen community, amongst a pastoral people, who have no way of treat ing a criminal but slaying him, and who have lite rally nothing to take from a man save his life. We can also understand the punishment of death amidst a people who have no belief in a life to come ; for cutting short existence then is a punishment. But for throe who believe this world to be a brief trial, a to an immortality beyond it — fir these to Irrath, either as a punishment to the criminal or as expediency in getting rid of him, does strike us as unreasoning, ineoosistent, and profane. It is one of the heathen barbarities, which inert and traditional Christianity so unaccountably preserves. Such considerations as these, however, weigh little with either legislators or statesmen. The question with them is, to deter the evil-intentioned from crime. That death does not do so, has been argued with success over and over again. And in fact, if capital pusishments could deter, they would have prevented such crimes as forgery and robbery. For these we may suppose to have been resorted to by weakly nerved men, on whom an execution might be supposed to have an appalling effect. Yet capital punishment had no salutary influence to prevent sheep being stolen or notes being forged. How then can it be supp3sed to be effectual on those passionate or determined spirits, who commit the crime of murder from cupidity or revenge? On them not merely executions, but the existence of capital punishment, has a hardening and exciting effect, throwing that portion of risk into their adventure that creates a charm. But indeed it is almost superfiums at the present day to argue the question of capital punishments. The expediency of doing away with them has been proud, and is admitted by all. There is no opposition to it. There is merely hesitation, a hesitation canoed by a fitting substitute in the way of punish ment not having been yet established or agreed on, in lieu of death. It is this alone that arrests the decision of some few even of the judges from recommending at once the abolition of death punishments. We think, therefore, that the generous minds which have associated for this great purpose—a report of whose solemn meeting, sad able speeches on Mon day was famished in our yesterday's paper—ought to apply their principal efforts toward@ perfecting the sys tem of secondary punishments. For they,and we,may be perfectly sure, that the moment a kind of punishment discovertd, uniting all the requisite qualities of suffering and privation without torture, of death to the world without the brutal extreme of life taking, and of security to society against possible return —from that moment the penalty of death will be ab rogated. the Thses, an the subject of the punishment of death, iodides yesterday in a course of argument, which strikes as as at once untenable and self-contra dictory. It gives up the deterring principle, and admits the insufficiency of death to act as prevention. It also defends the law from being vindictive. And yet, nevertheless, it re-asserts the vindictive right to o exact retribution," and this not merely for wrong done to society, but for offence@ perpetrated against our religious sense. Talking of a man hanged, the nines declares such death to be " the due wages of sin." In these few words the Times ma nages to confound the principles of criminal law and religious duty. If this be true, we should hang the adulterer, and erect the catty stool not merely in our churches, but on the platform outside our pole. Lay judges might be dispensed with. Bishops @Maid take their seats. And, instead of •judp and :Ina weighing the wrong dooe to society, or the made in the common law, we should have a bench of inquisitors with their apparitors torturing the ac cused in order to disc)ver how far he had sinned. In the recent and eloquent speech of M. ODILLON BAIIOT upon the corruption of the Roman government, he con cluded a gloomy and striking' picture of the Pope's judicial system by asking, " What would you think of the barbarous iniquity of a system which actually went the length of confounding crime with sin ?" And yet this barbarous perversion of the prin ciples cf justice, for which M. BARROT consigned the Roman tribunals to contempt, is the very doctrine, the very system, which the Times preaches to the English public of 1 Me, no doubt as the foundation stone of a sew sod. of theocracy. We are really pained to find so eminent a contem porary fall into so atrocious a blunder. And it is only to be hoped that, for the credit of England and of the Time!, no foreign philosopher or jurisprudent will hare his attention directed to such an emanation from an English mind. We see no necessity for discussing seriously the proposal to do away with the turbulence licence and solemnity of public executions' in order to perpetrate the hangings and embowelling in secret This is • tendency of which there is already too much in modern improvement ; this is to veil wrong with silent solemnity, and cover over festering vice with a varnish of decorum. What pains do we not take to make oar Sunday look religions? Whet sums do we not spend on policemen to chase the ragged and the vagabond from respectable streets and well-washed steps into the filthy alleys and hidielg-places where they may legitimately congregate . We are for ever making clean the outside of the cup and the platter. We are a nation of Pharisees, not indeed in religion, but in the observances of morality and decorum. One must admit the disgusting nature of the scene before Horsemonger-lane Prison. But col lect the same crowd for any other purpose—let them bivonack in the open air, and be forced to resist the liberalism or independence. A more unfit chief of a republican government could not be found than Louis NAPOLEON. If a re public have an advantage, it is the exemption of its chief from dynsstio interests or family bias. Whatever msy be the views or prejudices of the JACKSONS and the POLES, one is at least sure that they are not ready to sell their country for a royal wife, or the liberties of a neighbouring state for the support and alliance of a distant autocrat. In Louis NAPOLEON were united all the bad qualities of a kingly government with all the weaknesses of a republican regime. He was not a good president for a continuance of the re public, nor was he a good president as a stepping stone to any other than a military monarchy. Pique, therefore, not policy, suggested the 'holes of such a candidate by the notables, whose enjoyment was to see republican France thus cutting its own throat. In making these objections to Louts NAPOLEON before his election, we do not accuse either his cha easter as conduct. It was his position that unfitted him. Ami does his election we can only say, that he bee beloved much better, with more spirit, frank ness, and honesty, than this conservative club that sills itself the matority. He up till very lately has hum tees to them, whilst they have in nowise been true to him. To have elected such a president, and then to have expected that he would struggle for no longer or no greater hold of power, was preposterous. Yet it was on this they insisted. And in consequence, I not only is no one surprised at LOINS NAPOLEON'S breaking with the majority, and ejec ing their no minees from power, bat the public, however little sympathising with the Prestd,ent's ambition, still admit his provocation and admire his conduct. The manifest sentiments of the Preach public have reduced the Majority Club to nullity. The ministers who have lost place seem es if they had been flung into the river Lethe, so noiseless has been their fall— so utterly dumb and motionless have been they them 'selves. Whatever small units they may have been in office, never were such cyphers out of it. And it would really seem that Lours NAPOLEON might take a dozen porters from the corners of so many streets and form them into a cabinet, without the French public ferlioN in the least excited, astonished, or mortified. What is to follow from this indifference of the public—this loss of hold by the consarvatives upon it—is difficult to tell Himonn are rife of coups-d'etat on the part of the President, resistance on the part of the Assembly, and of a little emetsit to be got up in their own interest by the republicans. However premature and exagorated such statements may be, it is at least certain that things cannot go on long as they are, and that with.n the next six weeks either the President must succumb, or the Assembly.

INDIA. ererrepire le lurrachee, thence to Bombay for em barkation to Europe; they are under charge of Lieut. Wickham, 61St hat, Dr. Pemberton, 31st Bengal N. I. bergtheirsaidimartiedant. Much sickness prevailed at Mohan and the outpost at Leith, but fortunately ft was not of a mere type. Colonel Hobson, let Bombay, frau*, prize agent at the former place, has arrived in Bombay. The late inundation had nearly subsided by the middle of September, bat a large quantity . of fetid mud and stagnant putrid water re mained in the pits and hollows around, proving com plete hotbeds of malaria and fever. Brigadier Stal ker, and a number of the o ffi cers and European artil lery% were laid up. The weather was becoming cooler, which it was hopel would help to allay the sickness. Dr. Ritchie had discovered several quarries of stone around Meehan, which will soon be largely drawn on for rebuilding the fortifications so cone pletely demolished by the August flood. Majors Edwardes and Nicholson (of Mooltan and Attack re nown) are about to revisit their native land, where no doubt they will b s received with the distinction due to their gallantry—more especially the former, whose exploits have been blazoned throughout Europe. In my last I mentioned the serious illness of Briga dier H. N. Douglas (lieutenant -colonel 78th High landers), commanding the brigade in Upper Schick. In the end of September he quitted Sulker by the river for Kurrachee, intending to proc,ed thence to Bombay to take his passage home lees Egypt. He only lived to reach Hyderabad, off which place be died early on the morning of the let October on board the steam-r Satellite : his remains were deposited in Hyderabad, where rest the bones of *cores of his own corps who died there on their way from Bakker in January, 1844, when the Highlanders were nearly annihilated by sickness. Brigadier Boileau, of Her Majesty's 22nd. Foot, has been appointed to succeed the late Colonel Douglas at Shiksrpore. The head quarter wing of the 22nd embark from Bombay for Sande in the end of the present month. Captains Stack and Rathborne (the latter a collector in the province of Young Egypt) are about proceeding on sick leave to the Neilgherries, Captain Preedy taking Captain Rathborne ' e magisterial duties at Hyderabad, Captain Stewart succeeding him again at Kurrachee. The troops in Lower Seinde were tolerably healthy; in Upper Seinde much sickness prevailed. The canal department in Scinde has been abolished from the Ist instant—the duties to be carried on by the different collector', who are to be allowed the hand some awn of 30,0001. a year to be expended in pro viding the means of irrigating the country, which will be ample for the purpose if put to a proper use. The brigadierehip at Hyderabad mated by the Bom bay government, has been disallowed by the Court of Directors; and Major-General Auchmuty has bees permanently appointed to the command of the Solar division—by the orders of the Court, his succorer must be a Company's officer. Sir E. Perry does sot leave Bombay for Scinde till December : it is said be will be accompanied on his tour through the province by the Commissionz Mr. Pringle. Anarchy and m.ertile are once more making their appearance in the Nizam's dominions, and the lawless' fiends at the capital are said to have gone so far as to threaten the life of our Resident, General Fraser, who is accused of having drained the Nizam's coffers for the support of the contingent; the threat of ee lsassination being said to have emanated from some of the princes of the Nizam's own family'. The merce nary troops of the state were clamouring for their I arrears, on one occasion a body of Mogul Horse a-s mbliag under the windows of the palace, and' refusing to depart till settled with. The Telegraph and Coiner of this morning has the following late news from Hyderabad : Recent letters front Hyderabad inform us that since our correspondent's lest communication the affairs of govere meat have been conducted precisely in the manner thereto described. Rajah Ram HALO, nominally Peshkar, has done nothing, is doing nothing, and is expected to do nothing, unless ha can contrive miratulouey to procure a lose of sixty lam for hie sovereign. Without credit, with out resources, pecuniary or mental, without influential friends or supporters—the wonder is how the Nisam could ever have appointed him to the Peshksree. Probably the estimable prince designed him as a puppet, to be moved by whilst he disposed of the funds which he credulously supplied the raja was to procure the loan of. There may Indeed have been an additional motive in the sovereign's dei sire to conciliate the pritish government, by a 0h..., of the formation of a regular government of Iva own, though our j -cting to the appointment of a dewan, as unnecessary, ex pensive, end obstructive. The nig on it, in effect, ordering, devising, and conducting all setters. The appointment of Ram Littlish is only looked upon with complacency by those who dread the return of Seer.4-Jol-Moolk to power. Lately the peahkar has been most severely lcctured by his master, iv. his broken promises, his want of all arrangement , and his attempt to borrow money (upon most exceptionable terms, patent even to his obscure vision), from wealthy Puthan Talookdars. We hear that to these angry remon stratum and lectures the raja dares not utter a reply. To wards Snumeoodatmra the Mouses conduct vales as caprice dictates ; threatening and insulting him ore day, and send ing hint messages by the nuwab's eldest sea the next. With this eon he holds frequent eonfermees. From these nothing certain can be deduce I. Assuredly Bherrool-Ormara will again take cffice, nor any man of rank, wealth, talent, or a proper sense of honour, unless the pigeon's hands be tied trout all improper interference. There is but little news from the north-west. The Governor-General and the - Marchioness of Dalhousie have both been ailing, and it is said they purpose a voyage down the Indus to Mooltan and Kurrachee ; and should this not have efficted the desired end, they may even come on as far as Bombay, and thence pro ceed on a sea voyage, probably returning to Calcutta by ship. They are at present at Simla. The latter part of the rumour above given I place no dependence on at all. Sir C. Napier was to have left Simla on the, 15th, on his tour through the Panjaub and the north- west. Viscount Gough and family leave for Calcutta, about the 10thNov.,and proceed home in the January steamer. The Marquis of Dalhousie's camp is to be I formed on the let Nov. at the font of the hills, hie lordship's escort to be composed of a regiment of European dragoons, one of European and one of native infantry, and a troop of horse artillery—which will be a moderate sum out of Hon. John's pocket, in the shape of field batta. The whole of the north-west provinces have been deluged with rain, which had not however been attended with any bad consequences to the crops. Toe 73th Foot had reached Ailahabad en route to Meerut, having lost a great number of men from the heat and cholera on the way. Major-General G. Hunter, C. 8., who came to India along with Sir Charles Napier, is about to return home on sick leave. The gallant veteran pro bably finds that there is little chance of being killed by the bullet or sword of the enemy, and therefore sees no fan in remaining to run the chance of being popped off by disease: and he is right in his reason ing. The lieutenant-governor of the north-west is on his way back to Agra rid Delhi. Sir Lawrence Peel, now in the north-west, intends paying the Jul lundhur Doab a visit, and will most probably while there take a look at the last resting place of his gal lant nephew, Lieutenant Peel, who met his death in action with the rebel Ram Singh and his followers at a place called Dullah, near Shahpore, on the 16th January, 1848. Corruption having been detected in the civil courts at Agra, a commission of in rp.iry has been appointed. The Commander-in- Chief of Madras returns to the Presidency at the end of the present month. The Rev. M. Mahon, garrison chaplain at Madras, having refused to bury a man who had come by his death acciden tally, has been removed to St. Thomas's Mount, and en succeeded by the Rev. Mr. Powell. The Gods very River has flooded the cr untry around, carrying away all the works connected with the Anicut, and sinking two government steamers and several other craft. The Board of Control have refused a railway guarantee to Madras similar to that granted to Bom bay acid Calcutta, which has very justly raised the ire of the Malls. I enclose the report of Mr. Conolly, magistrate in Malabar, of the operations of the troops against the fanatic Moplahs near Calicut.

The Sirdus Chatter and Shire Singh, with several ethers of the Sikh nobles, have ono* more—and in the muse of common prudence, let it be fir the last time— appeared on the Pitejaub stage.

Sir Henry Lawrence left Lahore shout the 20th Sept, to hold an interview with the Maharajah Goolaub Singh at Juno, or in Cashmere. Can it be that the wily chief is implicated with the Sikh sitters, and that our Resident has gone to warn him of the danger be Wears by mixing himself up with their plots ? Eight days alter Sir Henry had set out from the Sikh apt tai we find the chiefs above-named seised at their village and conveyed to the Lahore prison, two other partite of troop. being out at the same time for the purpose of securing the persons of others inspected of harbouring evil thoughts towards us. It cannot be that the far-seeing Resident was in the dark on the subject of the treasonous correspondence going on within twenty miles of him—at lust one would suppose so—and it remains to be seen what the ob ject of the journey undertaken by him immediately a'ter the world were informed on has own authority that he did not purpose visiting Cashmere, really was. Should he have been anomalous of what was hatching at his door, he is unfit for the high and responsible situ. ion be bolds. The Delhi Gazette of the 6:ti gives the subjoined concise account of the arrangements made for the surprissl of the traitor" one party (the chief) of whom were secured within: any trouble; the success of the other two detach meats was of course to be expected, though tidings to that Wiest had not reached Lahore : Mee Major Machos= greeted to the rebel chiefs, who serreadered beyond the Jhelum, permission " to live at their own homes," the governor-general ratified the act of Ms agent, though we leave very good reason to know that he muld est, and did not approve it. His lordship was, =tarto rest satisfied with layieg down gni the conduct of noes chiefs at " their sera bweett,• as would tend to render such fiber y as little Meal= he posaible. The rules laid down were subscribed sod ememsee to by the chiefs, who were distinctly told ass a Welsh of any of the conditions furred would inevitably lead to a forfeiture ef the liberty allowed them, and reporters were publicly placed at their houses on them Ite give satin of any such breach. Ia spite of the bribery and ectruption which seems to have been 'zeta. steely employed on the occasion. it had lately been seller- seised by the authorities at Lahore, and of course commur i• sued to the government, that almost all the principal insur gents were in the habit of constantly violating the instructions that had been laid down for their guidsios, and that fre quent communication had again been established among teem. The governor-general promptly and most properly determined to exact the penalty the chiefs had knowingly incurred, and issued instructions to the local authorities for the immediate ensure end incarceration of the defaulters. Accordingly three surprises were planned to come off on the let of October. One at Means, the head. quarters of the rebellion, which is about ten hots from the capital of the Panjaub, one at the village of Sirdsrs Lall Singh, Mormon, and Secret Singh, M tees, situate at no groat distance from Umritser, and the third at he dwelling of Dewas Hahn= Rae, at Seealkot Nothing had been beard at L%hore, up to the evening of the let instant, of the result of the two latter expediting, but the first was executed on the morning of that day with the most complete succees.

Had any resistance been at tempted, and as a provision splint any posrible contre temps, a wing of a corps of native infantry, and two guns, under Captain Simmers, were directed to follow the ea , vary detachment at 2 a m., and were much disappointed at leaning that the last argument would not be required Ir the other two parties have been as successful's* she one at Attaree—and we shall probably know the result' before going to press—the day's work will hase completed what the last campaign left undone. The public mind, both on this and the other side the Satlej, will be much settled by the removal, from "their homes," of those rebel leaders whose presence, enjoying a considerable amount of liberty, gave a lost resting-piece for hops, and none but the chiefs themselves will regret the infatustion which led them into new intrigue, and deprived them of their mischievous liberty. The curtain has now fallen on the 811th insurrec tion, and the last scene is, according to moral and practical justice, that of " the guilty priahed." Lord Gifford and Major Fane had returned to Wuzeerabad from Cashmere, where they bad been most hospitably entertained by Geolanb Singh. The snow on the bills is said to have been severely felt by these gentlemen, who were, no doubt, glad to get back to a more genial clime. Very heavy rain fell at Wuseerabed on the 19th ult., covering the roads and the surrounding country. The health of the troops had fortunately before this begun to mend, but it was feared such excessive wet would be the tar linger of a fresh attack of sickness amongst them. Lieutenant Crommeline had reached the Jhelum, from Peshawar, on his way home rid Boer bay. The commandant of the 69th N.L had aloe arrived from Reseal Piudee. At Peshawar, news had been received of the death of the King of Bok- 1 hare. The trade with Cabool, by way of the Kybee Pass had re-commenced, and a large number of horses, and fruit, and other commodities, in abundance, were exposed for sale in the town. Here also heavy rain had fallen on the 18th, which bad brought with it a considerable amount of sick ness in the shape of fevers and bowel complaints, from which a number of men had died. The station is, however, spoken of in the highest terms for the salubrity of its climate in the end of September. The orchards all around were laden with all manner at fruits, of which, as was to be expected, both the Europeans and natives of the force partook freely— too freely, perhaps—which will account for the affections of the bowels from which a number of them suffered. There are wells in the neighbour hood of Peshawar the water of which is invariably of one temperature : in the height of summer and in the depth of winter it is ever the same, never ex ceeding a temperature of 58 deg., and this while a thermometer at the wells' month has shown the heat of the air to have been 110 deg. in summer, and below zero in winter. The luxury of such a cool refreshing beverage in the hot months, can only be conceived by those who enjoy it. The natives of the place attribute the formation of these wells to the wisdom of the deity, and are (what I fear the Christians now located at Peshawar are not) content to slake their thirst with their contents without adulterating it with arrack, cognac, or Geneva : hence the great sickness amongst our soldiers while the inhabitants ere comparatively healthy. Not that it is hinted that the men of the three European corps now there are more addicted to drinking than the generality of soldiers in India : but it stands to reason that spirit-drinking with a tempera tare of from 100 deg. to 110 deg. in the shade, must be productive of the most baneful results. The force expect to be relieved in December—or, at least, they hope they may : it is thought very probable, however, that they may have to remain till December s 1850. Sir Charles Napier takes a look at them in the beginning of next month, when they will know their fate. Sir Henry Dundee had been ailing slightly, and it was thought he would shortly proceed home. In this saerauig's Overland Times, you will find two long and imensting letters from Peshawar, which will give yea a good idea of the country around as it appease le the sad of September. The European unlYa tithe lima are, I heir, to come down the Inds, km mu1eavue,........ et Mo&a, whose aloe is to be done away with. A draft act, to declare Men a free pod, was read a Slat tise in the legislative coma on the 22nd September. Major E. Madden, Bengal Artillery, has retired from the service from the Ist October. Sir W. Gown is now residing at Point de Belle, waitin g MOM The subjoined is from the Overland rents of this morning : Brevet-Major T. S. Conway, C. 8., of Her Majesty's 22nd Fast; has berm recommended to the Horse-Guards by Sir C. Napier as deputy-adinteat-gmeral of Queen's troops, Bombay, tame' of Lient.-Colonel H. Havelock, C. 8., gone to Reglaud. Lieut.-Colonel Brooke, C. 8., foe a time held the acting appointment. Major Conway, it may be remem bered, commanded the party who defended the residency at Hydrated against such overwhelming numbers, and who brought off its party in safety. The defence, at first seedbed by Sir C. Napier to Liem.-Colonel °attain, C.B , was eon sidered so meritorious that the victor of Mesas* intimated his intend** of making It the subject of a separate treatise ea the defence of outposts. We believe the two distinguished officers we have named shared the merit of the achievement : the credit of it was of course dee to the commander of the troops—Lieut.-Colonel Outram's functions as commissioner had not then ceased, so he occupied the residanty in his civil capacity. Sir W. Cotton bad recommended Lieut.- Col. Brooke, C. 8., an officer on his personal staff, and who had seen service sad undergone many hardships in the Pun jaub. Sir Char:es Napier disallowed the appointment, end nominated Major Conway. The wording of the order cep pointine Colonel Brooke seems to have given umbrage to the commander-imichief in India. It was as follows : • Lieut.- Colonel H. T. Brooke, C.B , Military Secretary to his Re callency the commander-in•chief, will act as deputy adjut ant general her Majesty's forms from this dat-, during the india. meition and absence on leave of Brevet Lieut.-Col. Have. lock or until further order., subject to the approval of his Recelleney the commander-in-chief in India, and the con firmation of the Right Hon. the Mummer in Council." In disallowing this appointment, Sir C. Napier is said to have administered a moat ungracious and uncalled-fir rebuke to the Bombay commander in chief, in which it is affirmed he states that it has never been usual in any of the Indian presidencies to appoint officers to the Queen's established general staff, subject to the confirmation of the governor-general or governor.insounal, these appointments being invariably made by the commandemitt.chiet in India, subject to the confirmation of no authority but the Horse. I Guards. We have no quarrel with Sir C. Napier exercising' his patronage as he thinks fit, and most assuredly no ohjec. don whatever—quite the reverse—to the advancement of Major Conway ; bat the appointment might have been made without giving offence to an officer of older standing in the army than himself. Perhaps the commander-in-chief in India could not let slip the opportunity presented of giving the Bombay commander-in-chief a Rowland for his Oliver I. deelia.ing to serve in a subordinate capacity under his junior. H. E. Goldsmtd, Esq., having returned from the Cape, has resumed charge of his duties as revenue and financial secre tary to government from the 4th October. U. L. Fai rest, Req., Chief Magistrate of Police, proceeds home on two years' furlough by the steamer of the 3rd November. We have not heard who is likely to succeed bins, but should think Mr. M. Luken, who has already twice held the appointment temporarily, will be the gentle man selected for the office. Dr. J. Kinnis, deputy inspector- general of her Majesty's hospitals, has proceeded on a tour of inspection, this comprising Bombay, Belgium, Dena, Kurrachee, and Hydrabal. The records of his office have been made over to the charge of the assistant-surgeon. Queen's Depot, Colabe. A general order will be toned under our military head, placing the services of Ensign File, of the 23rd N. L. 1., at the disposal of the commander-in chief, at his own request. Lieutenant Little, 10th Hunan, has also ceased to be on the staff of the governor. The latter officer succeeded Captain Harrison as aide•de camp ; the former took the place of Lieutenant Henry on the governor's staff a year ago, when he joined his regiment under orders foe the Punjaub having given the utmost satisfaction, he continued as extra aid de camp to within this fortnight, when he and Lieutenant Little resigned. Tree matter has long been subject of current talk, and the circumstanvs under which the resignations were made seem perfectly well known throughout the community; we forbear, as we have forborne, alludiog to them, because Lord F-Ikland seems to have as good a right as any other gentleman to make such changes in his household as he thinks fit, without being subjected thereby to animadversion. As the members of the governor's staff however are for the time being in some 'hap, public men, we may be allowed to say of those who have just retired from it, that two more polite, urbane, or gentlemanly, young men than Mr Little and Mr. Fife, will not easily be found in any service • and it may he added, if common famespesks truth, that the correctness and propriety of their private character and deportment was on a par with the politeness of their bearing and urbanity of their manners. Colonel Ashburnham it is said has been requested to return to his appointment of Military Secretary, the duties of which were temporarily discharged by . Mr. Little; and Lieute nant Henry will, we imagine, pin so soon as his health allows.—Ensign John Burke, 22nd foot, late ser geant-major of that corps, whose commission as ensign reached him by the Atalanta steamer, was, on the evening of the 9:h October, accompanied by Colonel Cotton to the mass-room, where he was introduced by him to the whole of the officers of the corps as " one of themse!ves," and at dinner was seated betwixt the gallant colonel just named and Major Conway, CB. Nothing could exceed the cordiality with which the officers of the gallant 22nd welcomed their young brother, which does them the highest hon ur. Pro moti-n from the ranks in the Queen's army is a reality ; in the company's it is a farce.—The H.C. brig of war Euphrates starts tor the Persian Gulf on the 20th October.—The ru mour of the immediate return from England of Mr. Wool, Agra Bank agent at Bombay, is, we have been informed, un founded. We should rejoice to see Mr. Wood again amongst are, though the public have, we believe, had no reason to complies of his absence, Mr. Brown having supplied his place so effectually that it is diffiault to say which we would prefer. The Oriental Bank has declared a dividend of Ea, 174 pt.r share for the las' half of the year 184849, which, with a like amount form , rly pa'd on the first sit months, mak sup a dividend of seven per cent for the year. We rejoice to observe that the subscriptions to the Pensioners Fund are now closely approaching Its. 20,000. the anrual sub.criptions (2301) promising a fair endowment over and ab .re the fixed fuud. P.S.—This morning's post has brought news of the capture, by the party ander Mr. C. B. Saunders, de puty-c3mmissioner at Umritsii - , on the let October, of Sirdar Lall Siugh Morareea, his brother Mahtab Singh (the instigator and commencer of the Yeah*, wurrevolt), and Soong Singh Majetteeab. No tidings had been received of the party sent in quest of i ekeem Rao to Seeslkot. Sir H. Lawrence s said to have gone to Cashmere to settle some boundary affairs with the Maharajah, and also for the good of his health, while another report is that his mission is to enc.eavour to persuade Goolaub Singh to give ns Cashmere, we presenting him with Peshawar in its steed. The Rajah of Sumbulpore died heirless on the 10th of October, and his possessions, which yield a considerable revenue, fall to government as lords paramount. A grand Masonic banquet was given, on the Ist October, to Sr . C.

(From the Overland Friend of China, of September 28.) ; Last monthly paper contained a lengthened account , of the murder of the Governor of Macao by the Chinese on the 22d of August, the consequent excitement among the Portuguese, and the position of the colony I when the overland despatches were closed. We men tioned that on hearing of the atrocity her Majesty's , ship Amazon, and her Majesty's steamer, Medea, • went over at once, in order to restore confidence by i their appearance; two American and one French men-of-war have been there for the same purpose. Since the Portuguese soldiers captured a small Chinese fort outside the barrier, three days after the murder, there have been no acts of hostility on either side. The number of Chinese killed and wounded on that occasion was not far from 70; in Canton exag geration has swollen the number to over 100. The Chinese within the walls of Macao are quiet : there has been neither riot nor plunder, and the presence in the town of marines belonging to the French and American ships of war will have an excellent effect. The Fiench minister to China resides in Macao ; and the American government occupies naval stores there for the supply of the squadron in the east. At these places respectively there is a French and an American marine guard. The Chinese commissioner's reply to the despatch from the Macao government, informing him of the crime that had been committed, is marked by the cool insolence of its tone. It is said that the answer sent to Mr. Bonham's communication was much in the same strain. The Macao government answered seriously, but it had little, if any effect. About the 20th, government received another communication (we rather think net written by Seu himself) offering to deliver up the head and hand of the late governor, also a bead said to be that of one of the murderers, provided the Portuguese wou'd release the three Chinese soldiers captured at the barrier gate on the • 25th ultimo. To this the Portuguese could not con ' bent, mach value being put on the evidence of the soldiers. It is said they were on guard when the murder was committed—witcessed the whole affair, and feasted in the guard-house with the r murderers, the head and hand being there until near midnight, when they embarked for Canton. They reached Canton tho following evening when there was much rejoicing within the city. At Whampos, in sight of the foreign shipping, there was a public procession a few days later. Many Chinese soldiers were present carrying with them the figure of a European on horseback, which they placed in the temple of one of their idols. Rumours are current df rewards and even rank having been conferred on th e murderers ; but of this fore i gners have n o 0 , 144 knowledge. The authorities at Macao will spar e no exertion to get at the truth ; n o „ as man for a moment can believe that this pm the net of mere desperate ruffians. Plunder wa s act their object ; before they committed the deed a retrial was secured to Canton, and the very hour of their arrival at the city timed. It now appears, that some days previous to t h e murder, a mandarin vessel moored in the bay a te the barrier. She anchored off the Praya on the eve. iog the deed was done, and left some time durieg th e night. It is probable, that after marking the stat e o f excitement, this boat put off and embarked the murderers according to previous arrangement. Ag express boat dispatched for Canton that evening r e , turned, stating that they had been fired at by pi ra t es and compelled to return. The crew of the expe l " assert that the boat which prev ented their goi ng f on . ther was the identical Mandarin boat we have re. (erred to. CHINESE PIRATES. (From a correspondent at Hong Kong, dated Sept. 2p) " The Peninsular and Or ental Company's m uk i Achilles, with the 24th July mail, arrived litre on Me morning of the 11th inst., and w.II leave again at defy tomorrow, burg detained twelve hours by the Admiral. " The most important intelligence which we have to eo s ,„ municat• is the discovery of a powerful fleet of Chinese pirates, under the command of one man, who carries yi e particular flag, and has his head quarters at Tier pack. g short distances from the harbour. Toe fleet consisted a shoe time sines of from 70 t 100 vessels, some two docked, acid all heavily armed, but the measures remedy taken h ue tended to redoes the number. " The following circumstances led to the discovery: Some two or three months ago a letter was received at Canton by the consul from a European, reputing that a junk which las commanded was detained at Hainan by pirates. Shady afterwards the same person arrived here an his y. esi , colons he reported that he had been obliged to pay 1,000 dollen as rename before being allowed to sail. The brig Dido also re. ported at Singapore that on her passage from this, in Illy, she had been chased by a piratical fleet off Hainan; and es the Sylph, which left about the same time, did net make her appearance, fears were entertained for her safety, ges ownare here made application in consequence to the Hake naval officer, who despatched her Majesty's steam r Medea to Tienpack, where the greater portion of the pimtl fe j fleet were found at anchor. An attack was accordingly made by the boats of the steamer, when live junto were destroyed, the remainder making their escape b t the meantime. Other ve.seh have since b.en despatched, and more junks hays been destroyed ; but the clnet ping has still a large force under his command, and lots with!' the last few days reta.iced upon a Chinese town, the inn. bards of which rendered assistance to the steamers. Amid cutter, the Mayflower, commanded by Europeans, has sloe been captured in the Canton river by a portion of the vote fleet. _ _ " The plwerful nature of this piratical fleet renders it is. perstive that immediate measures be taken fee its destine. %ion but, to keep these seas clear of pirates for the fut ure , it will be absolutely necessary that the goverr meet We have at its commend • small, but powerfully arced, steamer, one that will be able to follow the yessils into their retreats. " The barbarous murder of the governor ef Macao, nodal in our last, hes not been followed by any act. of viola= against the Portuguese settlement, and all remains quiet, The head and hand of Signor Antsril, which the murderer bad hacked off, and carried with them, have b en 'dis clvered ' be the Chinese authorities in Canton, and are now offered to be delivered up to the Portuguese, provided the three Chinese soldiers, captured at the barrier gate- be sar rendered. To chit the Partugurse will not agree, as the evidence to be given by these men is comidered to be of is portence. The French frigate Sayonnaise ie in the inner hub itir of Macao refitting ; she has landed all her guns end about 250 men. " We experienced a severe storm on the 13th of this month. Two vessels, which had exiled the previous*, put back eilmasted, end one vessel, the Coquette, which wet wren near Names and bound for this has not gnu made ha appearance. No damage was done to the shipping in the harbour. " In Canton all is quiet. "From Shaegbae we have letters to Sept. IS.

There was little of excitement in the Wand. The governor's crgan, the Examiner, pub hatted on the 10th and 13th of October tabular state ments of the revenue for the first six months of 1849. It is not easy to come at the truth through these documents, but their general result is unfavourable. According to one table there is a decrease of revalue in the first six months of 1849 to the amount of 9.666/., and a decrease of expenditure to the ainlant of 1,1931.: from this it would appear that the balance of receipt and expenditure was 7,4731. worse in the first six months of 1849 than in the corresponding months of 1848. According to another table the excess of revenue over expenditure from Ist J inuary to 30th July, 1849, was 13,257/. Yet, in the face of these official documents, the Examiner, the govern meet organ, cooly states that in the first six months of 1849 the revenue has been 215,4871., and the expenditere 202,2291. The force of impudence can no farther go. MELANCHOLY CATASTROPHE AT LOUTIL—FIVII Liven LosT.—The Lineokshire Times pivot the fellowl4 details of this distressing event :—About three o'clock in the afternoon of Saturday last the inhabitants of this borough were thrown into • state of considerable alarm sad conster nation by • terrine explosion of combustibles, on the ow of Mr. W. Armitage, ehemiat and druggist, 01 the Fish Shambles. About two years ago, that gentleman, who was a member of the town council, highly yes; ected by his fellow townsmen, and possessed of high scientific attain ments as a practical chemist and pyrotechnist, inven'ed valuable explosive railway signal, for the purpose of indicating any danger that might arise on a radio, line, and having received orders of late from event companies for • considerable number, was engaged * the afternoon above-mentioned in the :manufacture of them, The place in which this was carried on was • weer house immediately over the ki•chen, which stood detached& few feet from the dwelling house, and Mr. Armitage, hit father, Mr. Thomas D. Armitage. a youth named Stephen Evans (the son of a neighbour), and Mary Jane Evans. his • , were employed. In the kitchen below were Eliza Wilton, Mr. Armitage's housekeeper, and a screed. When Mr. W. Armitage entered, and °posed the door of an iron oven to take out same paste of a combustible nature, of which the signals are made, and which had been placed there to bake or dry, from some cause or other it exploded with a terrific' report, igniting the combustibles in the warehoss above, reducing the whole building to a heap of ruins, sad burying the above named persons under the burning mam, with the exception of the servant maid, Roberts, who mira culously escaped through a window, who, with a little boy of Mr. Artnitage'e in her arms, sustained little injury IWO from fright. The assistance of the police, with their super intendent, Mr. Tacey, and one of the fire engines attached to the force, were promptly procured ; the are being et , tioguished, operations commenced, wi'h the assistance of a great number of the inhabitants, fcr the removal of the ruins and extrication of the sufferers. The first who was got out was Eliza Wilson. the house-keeper, alive, but her legs being so much crushed and her body having me' tamed so much injury from burns and bruins, that ski gradually sunk and died shout three bows afterward& The youth Evans, was then taken out, and survived bat a very short time. The other three, Mr. Armitage, his fathers and the girl Evers, were quickly and successively extricated! but were quite dead. AU the poor tuff Ten presented a most t he r being charred by the fire and muti lated by the fall of the 'building, almost beyond pombilityd recognition, except from their dress, or that portion of it which remained unburned. Too marsh praise cannot be ' awarded to the inhabitants, of all closes, who assisted in extinguishing the fire and removing the ruins, reckless of the danger around them arising from the explosi t, at in tervals, of rockets, signals, and combustibles, by which they L were surrounded. JUVENILE DELINQUENCY.—A female child of only nine years of age was charged at the Liverpool Police-allot , on S motley, with having dexterously picked the pocket els lady in St. John's Market, a second offence of the tar kind ! Toe mother was in court, and seemed dilate/AA such conduct in her child, whom (she said) abe sent to when , daily, and to a place of worship on Sunday, so that she eons only account for such crime by her contact with bad of! pany.
