TUE LORD LIEUTENANT of Ireland has taken the wise and decided step of extending the provisions of the Labour-rate Act to works, which, while they are not strictly speaking public, are yet of a repro ductive character and permanent utility. They are to include drainage, and subsoiling with a view to drainage. In the latter case, an undertaking is to be given in writing, and transmitted with the present ment, by the person or persons whose lands are pro poeed to be drained (being ' proprietor' in the terms of the act 5 and 6 Victoria, chap. 89), stating that the money so to be expended shall be a charge exclusively on the land so to be improved, and be levied from the same according to an award to be made by the commissioners, as :under the above-mentioned act. In cases where such works, other than public works, but not of drainage, are presented, the following regu lations are laid down for proportioning the assess ments : I. The presentment %swami will estimate the earn which it may be neermary to raise off the barony fur the purpose of affording em gdoyment. 2. They will also ascertain the proportion of such assessment which, awarding to the lest poor-law valuation, may be chargeable upon each electoral di, iilofl of a union, or portion of an electoral divin (if the whole shalt not be included) in the barony; and they will obtain for this purpose, from the clerk of each poor-law union, a copy of such valuation. 3. 1 hey will pre-zent for such useful and profitable works to be exe cuted in each electoral division, to the amount of Its proportion of the aservoment ascertained as above. Unless these conditions are complied with, the ses sional proceedings will be considered with strict refe rence to the provisions of the Labour-rate Act. In the case of baronies which have already held sessions and presented works under the Labour-rate Act, the works already sanctioned, or those applied for, which it may become necessary to sanction to afford continued employment, are tobc proceeded with until sessions can be held, in which the present more liberal construction of the statute may be acted upon. We have heard a doubt expressed as to how far the limitation of the term " proprietor" to the meaning of the act 5 and 6 Victoria, may have the effect of crip pling these proposed advantages. But in truth the limitation could scarcely have been avoided. A consi derable part of the landlord's tenure in Ireland is on leases of lives with covenants of perpetual renewal, and various constructions of the latter have caused the most vexatious uncertainty as to the duration of interests under them. Hence, in the act in question, the lowest interest constituting a " proprietor" was fixed at forty years unexpired in a lease, or a lease for ever. Nor can we think this, for the purposes con templated, an illiberal or unfair construction. Some such step as this now taken, we have all along contended for, and, we may add, looked forward to. The Lord-Lieutenant in taking it, has shown the courage and self-dependence which mark him as the fit man for this terrible emergency of Ireland. He has taken it, trusting to an indemnity which will no doubt be cheerfully and gratefully awarded him by Parliament. A less courageous administrator would have shrunk from the responsibility of thus extending the provisions of a statute ; a less clear-sighted one might have remained blind to the necessities which justify the proceeding. There was no lack of plausible reasons for adhering to the letter of the law. The jobbing propensities of landlords were patent, to account for their anxiety to see the government advances employed in developing the resources of their estates. The recklessness of presentment ses sions might have furnished an excuse for not accept ing either their remonstrances or their representa tions. The Earl of BESISOROUGH, as an Irishman, knows how to estimate both these grounds of official resistance to all demands of change. We can not doubt that he has maturely weighed them ; that be has made the deductions they render necessary, alike from the pictures of mischief under the existing system, and the prospects of advantage from that which it is proposed to substitute ; and that his present determination is as politic as it is courageous. At the same time we cannot charge the Government with improvidence or ignorance in the construction of the Labour-rate Act. It was framed before the terrible prospect had wholly revealed itself. The pre lude of last year was taken as the measure of misery for the present. The act contemplated little beyond an application of temporary remedies to a temporary distress. It got rid of some of the objectionable pro visions of the measure which it copied. It removed many facilities for jobbery. It avoided numerous eco nomical oversights which marred its prototype. But it did not enforce reproductiveness ns a condition of the public works to be commenced under its sanction. Writing from the Treasury minute before a copy of the act was to be procured, we have spoken as if this point was insisted on in the measure ; and had its framers anticipated that they were paving the way for a new social order of things, and not staving off a partial and temporary privation, no doubt that condition would have been enforced. If they had felt that in the misery of the present, were to germinate the seeds of future prosperity and comfort, it would have been suicidal to overlook the reproductive element. Without it, works might produce wages : they could not do more. If the mischief were of the day, the day's earnings might be enough to meet it. But even in this case, it would have been wiser to have looked beyond what the day might bring forth. As it is, the derisive act of the Lord-Lieutenant has corrected the government measure in the point where correc tion was needed. The landlords can no longer com plain that they are taxed to their ruin. It rests with them to convert the tax to their good with that of the labourer and the country. The peasant has no longer the depressing sense that his work is wasted. He is no longer digging holes to fill them up again ; turning a mill, with nothing to grind ; furnishing a Barmecide repeat ; mocking GOD'S law 1 with a labour that ends where it begins. He may henoeforth toil diligently and cheerfully, for a bles sing! attends his effort. He is not producing his miserable daily shilling ; but shillings uncounted in futnee crop+, and future comforts for himself and his family. He rises from the paralysing sense of pau perism to the ennobling consciousness of productive labour. Henceforth it is his work and not his misery that entitles him to what he receives. This is as it should be. In this distinctive result of productive labour, more than in the material advantages which attend it, we see the chief ground for congratulating the Government, the Irish nation, and the LORD LIEUTENANT himself; on the change he has made. He has removed even the possibility of pauperising Ireland. Ho has taken the first step to engender a race of Irish labourers. Hitherto England has had the advantage (a questionable one to her) of such a class. The hard-working harvest-man was a labourer in Eng land, a con-acre cattier in Connaught. In the one cha racter he earned the good word of his employer as a steady, sober, grateful, and industrious workman ; in the other, he was a world's wonder of lawlessness, lazi- nese, wretchedness, and repartee. Among tl - e best of I farm-servants, he was certainly the very worst of tenants. Let us hope that the improvements of the soil, under the liberal construction of the Labour-rate Act; the shock to selfishness, which the present misery can hardly fail to give ; with the destruction of the peasant's staple and sole dependance, the potato; may at last give Ireland the benefit of the industry of her sons. The low standard of comfort to which his home , wretchedness bad habituated the Irishman, madehim a formidable competitor with his English brother. His appearance towards harvest-time was the harbinger of lowered wages and contracted employment to the Saxon tiller of the soiL In this respect his periodical immigrations were bad for England. They made a further reduction in a scale of payments which needed none. But if he can find agricultural employment at home,—as the regularity of his labourinereases, so will its remuneration, and with this his self-respect. Aided by the instruction of his superiors, whom enlarged agricultural operations must retain, for a time at least, on their estates, we may hope to see the Irishman prove that, if his Celtic blood must be held to account for previous apathy and long-continued misery, its influence is not so magical as to be proof against a demand for labour guided by superior intelligence, and accompanied with instruction from the employer, till now undreamed of. IT is a singular coincidence that a colossal statue of the great liberator of the Peninsula from French domination should have been raised on the loftiest of London pedestals, in the very same week in which a French prince went in triumph to Madrid, in the very teeth of British protest and remonstrance, to espouse the heiress to the Spanish throne. There is similarity in the way of doing the things, as in the things themselves. LOUIS PHILIPPE and Sir FREDERICK TRENCH are artists of the same order, predetermined to elevate their heroes in their own way, maugre every opposit'on from friend or foe. Little either of them care how the thing looks ! whether it squares with the rules of art, or the prin ciples of diplomacy. To succeed in installing MONTPENSIER over Madrid; WELLINGTON over the Arch ;—that is the great object. Once there, I let them keep their position, if they can. Let them be praised or be hooted, saluted with laurel crowns or pelted with mud, it is all one to the TRENCH or the ORLEANS. Both argue that the statue, once up, cannot fail to remain so ; and that an object so huge and so high must attract admiration. Both reckon upon a subsiding of the popular clamour ; upon the tongues and pens of diplomatic and artistic critics growing weary. It will not be worth declaring war against the beardless MONTPENSIER, or raising St. Giles's against the brazen image which Sir FREDERICK TRENCH bath set up. Braise therefore prevails. The reign of that metal is to eadure over both Pimlico and Spain. The respecter of taste and of national independence is to content himself with a shrug of resignation. We could indulge in a vast deal of loquacious resentment on both these topics, did we not deem it derogatory to the majesty of the press to keep thunder ing in vain. It is enough for oar foreign minister and his ambassadors to be treated with contumely ; to have their remonstrances met with official silence, and semi-official jeers. When Mr. BULWER presented his first protest to his Serene 'Mightiness, Isrunrrz, that renegade hidalgo replied that he would disdain attending to Mr. B.'s notes till instructions came to him from London. When the instructions came, the hidalgo declared that he cared as little for the opinions of the Government, as for those of the Envoy. The Marquis of NORMANBY paid his respects at the Tuileries. The royal owner declared he was not at home, and ordered his coach to La Ferte Vidame. The Marquis's protest was sent to M. GuizoT, who replied by the post ten days after, when the bridegroom had set forth. The French principals being thus impertinent, their valets were at the same time set on to pelt Lord PALMERSTON. The language of the French and Spanish ministerial papers was of that servants'-hall school of impertinence to which there is no replying. In a controversy of this kind one is loth to join. Nor does there seem anything to be done, except to , throw our cloaks around us in the most dignified fashion possible, and remain silent. Our contempo raries, however, do not see the matter in this light. They will bandy words, and show their soreness. One of them, the joint organ of the PALMERSTON and ABERDEEN policy, continues to show a very courteous degree of ill-humour, which it supports by spinning very pretty and ingenious little arguments about the treaty of Utrecht, winding these up by ambiguous, but not intemperate, menaces. What is all this but drawing a rapier, and delicately fencing against an antagonist who wields the ruffian's bludgeon ; whose arguments are mere violence; who comes upon you like a thief in the night, and does not unmask till he has struck you. The idea of quoting GROTIUS or VArrEL to such a fellow is an excellent joke. Would you bind him with a treaty of Utrecht ? Why, he mocks the treaties of Vienna. Who, indeed, saving ourselves, has been honest enough, or fool enough, to respect them ? How can Lord PALMERSTON, who never could get Louis -PHILIPPE to respect or execute the Quadripartite Treaty of his own signing, hope to make him respect a treaty signed a century and a half back? There is no nee whatever in pleading treaties with the Kiag of the French. As Senor ISTURITZ said naively in the Cortes, " The Revolution has changed all that" But there was one thing,one motive,thatmight have acted as a check upon Louis PHILIPPE in following up his projects upon Spain, as upon any other coun try. This was fear of the consequences. Had Eng land and its Government preserved their old cha racter, of a pacific nation indeed, but of one that would suffer no offence to its pride, no outrage upon its interests, Louis PHILIPPE dared not have passed this insult upon us. Bat we have never lately been tired, of fondling him,of bepraising him, of confiding in him, of styling his Majesty and M. GUIZOT the only Frenchmen who would not injure or deceive us. What an outcry was raised against any one who mistrusted either! Whosoever doubted the immaculate worth of Louis PHILIPPE, Were stigmatised as a war-party. Lord ABERDEEN acted upon this LOUIS PHILIPPIAN mania. He brought the Queen to En, as all must admit, to be duped. He reduced the Mediterranean fleet to one vessel, and he sent instructions to Mr. BULWER to court the Moderados. There are pro bably not two men in the empire capable of pursuing a course so monstrously mean, so childishly imbecile. But there was danger in changing it. Lord ABERDEEN had so simply, so servilely, re signed himself to be the plaything of LOUIS PHILIPPE, that even his Majesty must have felt some compunc- THE EXPRESS, FRIDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 9, 1846. tion in bete ing him. But when Lord PALMERSTON came in there icak, no compunction. It was oap►tal fun and retribution lb trick the g statesman. Lord PAUSE/HMO/I had no longer a t—though one does now appear; somewhat late and id/e, on the waters of Cadiz—and, alas! he had no longer the repu tation of being able to follow out the peculiar policy on which he had formerly acted. Lotus PHILIPPE therefore pushed on, and retorted the move of 1840. Atrocious and scandalous as it would have been for the King of the French to have duped the confiding ABERDEEN, still even that must have been done► sooner or later, impudently or slily. But Lord PALMERSTON'S coming into office was no joke, and he was to be foiled and defeated in initio, if at all. Thus the resolve was taken. The clutch at the Spanish throne was to be now or never. For had the Whigs held office a short twelvemonth, and had there been time to take up a position against French absorption of Spain, Louts PHILIPPE dared not have attempted what he has now achieved. A menacing attitude would have checked him. Neither our friendship nor his promises were able to effect so much. The accounts relating to trade and navigation for the seven months ended sth August, 1846, compiled in the statistical department of the Board of Trade, were issued yesterday. The only decidedly un satisfactory return, as compared with the returns of the two preceding years, is that of woollen manufac tures exported. The declared value of the exports of woollen manufactures during the first seven months of 1846 is 3,878,7654; in the corresponding period of 1845 it was 4,748,7391.; of 1844, 5,194,0321. The declared value of the exports of linen and cotton ma nufactures in the first seven months of 1846 is slightly less than in the same periods of 1815 and 1844 ; but not more so than the oscillation of amount from year to year warrants us to expect. In the value of the exports of coals and culm, cotton yarn, hardwares and cutlery, iron and steel, and silk manufactures there is an increase. The total of the declared values of exports in the first seven months of 1846, is about two millions below what it was in the corresponding period of 1845, but less than 250,000/. below what it was in 1844. The only means afforded us of guessing at the state of the home market by these returns, is the amount of the prinei * imported articles retained for home consumption. The total quantity of unrefined sugar entakil for home consumption during the first seven months of 1846 was 2,768,898 ewts. ; in 1845 it was 2,924,205 cwts. ; in 1844 it was 2,377,590 cwts. The total of tea entered for home consumption during the seven months in 1846 was 27,043,497 lbs. ; in 1845 it was 25,770,4541b5. ;in 1844 it was 23,816,0321b5. The total of coffee in 1846 was 20,641,7241b5. ; in 1845 it was 20,219,3981b5.; in 1844 it was 18,077,9771 ha. The total of cocoa in 1846 was 1,746,0211ba. ; in 1845 it was 1,590,334 lbs. ; in 1844 it was 1,577,018 lbs. Of all those articles of innocent luxury, consumed in large quantities by the middle and lower classes, there is increased consumption in 1846, except in the case of sugar ; and in that the quantity returned, though less than in 1845, is greater than in 1844. This state of affairs shows that the middle and lower classes have been able to indulge to more than the average extent in their familiar luxuries, and it speaks well of the state of the home trade. The regular letter of our Bombay . Correspondent, though anticipated in its leading points by the Ex press aid Trieste, will be found to contain some additional information of interest, and a more conti nucus and connected view of eients than we love previously published. BOMBAY, Alto. 27. The aspect of affairs in the Punjaub begins already is assume a somewhat troubled appearance. The apprehen sions of disturbances on the withdrawal of our troops front the country would riem to be so great, that the chiefs of the Durbar are said is have requested that a subsidiary force may be permanently located in the Punjaub. This is mere rumour, but one which would seem eminently likely to re solve itself into reality. In addition to the expected difficul ties almost certain to ensue on our evacuation of the country the Sikh Durbar have managed to rouse the insubordinate spirit of the Nazim of Mooltan, and that chief is now in arms determined to resist the authority of his master to the utter meet. This state of matters would seem to have been brought about by the Prime Minister, Rajah Lall Singh, who, to se cure himself in power, was determined on superseding the Nazim by a creature of his own—MIST Bugwan Singh. The chief of Mooltan, finding all his efforts to obtain a rear...cilia tion with the Durbar on honourable terms fail, cl - putrid an agent to the Governor-General at Simla, to represent his ease, and begging his interference in the matter, in order to an amicable adjustment of the dis pute. This Lord Hardinge is said to have done. but unfortunately, ere his lordship's interference could be of any avail, a portion of the forces of the Durbar, under Misr Bugwan Singh, and those of Dewaa Moolraj, had met, and a conflict ensued, in which the latter were victorious. The engagement took place near Lubba, cons. quent on the com mander of a detachment of the Sikh troops there stationed having commenced ill-treating the inhabitants, who natu rally resisted, at the same time sending word of how matters stood to an officer of the Nazim's, who immediately went to their aid. The Khalsas were worsted, leaving, it is said, betwixt two and three hundred dead on the field, and four guns. On the news of the battle reaching the capital, orders were dispatched to the commander of the Sikh army to suspend hostilities, the Governor-General's letter having been received by the Durbar. A message was at the same time sent to the Nazim, to acquaint him that ambassadors would shortly be dispatched to escort him with all honour to thecapital. The commanders of the troops sent against Dewan Moolraj were anything but satisfied with the manner in whichlhings are being carried on, saying it was a disgrace to allow matters to be settled after part of the army had been beaten, and one of their number taken prisoner. It is said the Nazim of Mooltan had been desired by the Governor-General to present himself at Lahore, when everything would be settled to his satisfaction. Should Lord Hardinge have guaranteed his safety, he doubtless will do so, but not otherwise, as he has all along answered the prime minister to this effect. And should his lordship have done ' so, the risk incurred is very great ; as should any harm come to the chief, we will be bound in honor to punish those who may have been the cause of it. But, I believe, the Nazism will consider twice ere he trusts his person in the hands of such a man as the prime minister, though now ostensibly propossing to do so. Differences betwixt the state and its vassal may be compromised for a short space of time, but they are sure to arise again hereafter: the thirst of independence once excited is not so easily quenched. Our beloved and faithful ally . the newly-crested Maharajah Goolaub Singh of Cashmcer, is, as in gratitude bound fur favours conferred, doing all in his power to disturb the peace of his betrayed country ! Persons favourable to the tranquillity of the Pun jaub are prevented by him from proceeding to Lahore, while those inimical to its government are invited to his capital of Jamoo. He had been trying to force his authority on a por tion of the chiefs of the Hazareh country, but they had resisted his agent and defeated him with considerable lots. Nothing has lately been beard of the payment of the ransom money to us for which he became responsible. Meanwhile affairs of the capital would seem to be anything but mending. The queen mother and her paramour, the prime minister, are again said to have requested that our troops may not be withdrawn • and it is the opinion of all who are conversant with the feelings of the majority of the chiefs, that a month would not elapse front the date of our evacuation of the country before they would pay the penalty of their crimes. An immense number of the disbanded Stikh soldiers is con gregated in and around Lahore, ready for the committal of any atrocities the moment our absence permits them to do so. Many of them have not yet received their arrears of pay, which of course does not tend to make them more fa vourabl y inclined towards the government. It is said that the general wish of the people is that we would appropriate the country for ourselves, which I should think is at present out of the question. That we will ultimately be constrained to do so beyond dispute, but the time for doing so is not yet arrived. It would now seem that the assemblage of au army un our north-west frontier in the cold season is certain to take place ; the object of which remains to be seen. Sickness has commenced amongst the European troops at Lahore, apo plexy being the prevalent disease, The natives enjoy g sod health. The weather had become intensely hot and disagree able, and the fall of rain had been scanty. Our troops expect to leave about the beginning of November, From the Jullundur Doab the news during the month has been scanty. Owing to the unsettled aspect of affairs, our troops did not expect to be relieved during the present sea son. The smaller hill chiefs not having received any com pensation for the forts they had delivered up to us, were said to be in a very dissatisfied mood. The country betwixt Jul lundur and Lahore was infest id with robbers. The weather was becoming rather oppressive, but our troops continued very healthy. It was feared that a party of three officers who had gone out on a shooting excursion, had met with some mischance, as no tidings had for some time been heard of them. Lord James Brown was one of the three. The district of Peshawar supplies little news. Troops had been sent out to control the tribe of Yoosufzaees, who had rebelled. A skirmish had ensued, with a trifling loss on both aides. Further reports having reached the Governor, he, at the head of a considerable force, proceeded in the direction of the insurrection. The insurgents had been joined by a large body of the Ghszee tribe. The troops soon made up with and defeated the rebels on the bank of the Cabool river, at a place called Numladhur—the insurgents fleeing for refuge to a fort called Hotee. A second light occurred at Junal, in which the Seikhs were again victorious. These two actions would seem to have quelled the rebellion, and the Governor was about returning to Peshawur. Heavy rain had fallen, which had committed great damage on the walls of the town. The news from Cabool is of little interest. Three parties had been formed, the first headed by Abd-uol-Jubber Khan (the good), the second by asst Mahomed, and the third by likhbar Khan; each of which would seem to have dreaded the machinations of the others. In this at matters con tinued till the breaking out of an insurrection amongst the tribe of Ghfizies, in the Guadamuck pass—the same which tighted the torch of rebellioo during our occupation of Affghanistan, which ended in the destruction of our army, in Jan. 1842, This would seem to have beea oecasioned by the treachery of Ukhbar Kinn, in nausiug the_ murder of a chief of the tribe by the Baruksies. This, of course, brought on a feud betwixt the tribes. The murderer effected his escape to Cabool, while the Ghilzies proceeded to plunder the surrounding country. Intelligence of these proceed's. reached Cabool. Ukhbar Khan ordered troops to proceed orderedt o quell the by disturba n ces, but they .Therefused wur to eer do so aolicited so, unless an audience of the Durbar, which was granted. He begged of his father on his knees for forgiveness of what had passed, which would seem to have been granted. The float sent to the Ohilzie chief to inquire his reasons for his late conduct, who returned a verbal answer, to the effect " that he should hold no inter course with a breaker of oaths and a murderer," meaning Ukhbar Khan: that he was anxious to justify himself, but could not trust his person at Cabool, where the Wuzeer was. The matter would appear to have been settled by the chief sending his POO and brother to the capital as hostages, who were placed under the care of Khan Shereen Khan, which arrangement is said to have much displeased the Wurcier. The character of Ukhbar Khan is said to have become noto rious throughout the country for everything that is trea cherous and disgraceful. The Dost appears to have aban doned his intention of resigning the reins of government The emissary from the King of Persia would seem to be still at Cabool, though he could not persuade him to " attack the British! " Insurrections were of common occurrence. The Wullee of Khooloom having been threatened by the Khan of Bokhara, had tendered his allegiance to that sove reign, and the ruler of Kokan had thrown off his alle giance to him. The Governor of Scinde is said to be about to resign the cares of government and return to England. This has been causedrtly by ill health, and partly, no doubt, by the knowledge that, de what he may, Scinde will be Scinde till theendo time. He has laboured hard to benefit the country, but all to no purpose. A curse would appear to have been cast on Young Egypt, for no sooner does pestilence cease, than his twin-brother famine pervades the land. Sickness has disappeared from Kurrachee, and has been succeeded by scarcity. The congregation of such a large body of troops at the station, without any adequate provision having been made to meet the demand, might have been expected to cause an evkaisetiou this ouppllo, of the country, sud the &area consequent thereon. The distress is not confined to Kure:ache°, but would seem to be general. At Hydrabad a number of poor followers are said to be obliged to pick out the undigested grain to be found in stable litter, for a subsist ence! (During the time of scarcity when Lord Keane's army was advancing on Cabool, the same shift was resorted to by hundreds.) The reason for this scarcity is said to be the high price at which the government of the country dis• pose of the grata in their godowns—the revenues being col lected in kind : and this with a view to make it appear that Scinde covers its own expenses! H. M.'s 17th foot have arrived at Kurrachee, and steamers from Bombay proceed immediately, it is said, to bring them down to the presidency. H. M.'s 60th and 86th are also to be removed, together with four native corps and the chief part of the European artillery ; no more than 5000 men being in future retained in the country. The order for this reduc tion is said to have been received from England ; and the last mail mentions that Scinde is not for the future to be an independent government, hut to be annexed to that of Bombay. If such be the case the cause of Sir C. Napier's resignation is explained—it not being likely that he, after exercising uncontrolled authority over the province for such a long period, would submit to be guided by any power under that of the . government of India. The necessity and justice of restoring the country to the Ameers, have been ably pointed out by a correspondent of the ombay Times, the perusal of which at home will doubtless open the eyes of the public to much of which they have hitherto being ignorant. Cholera had surely and steadily wended its way up the Indus; it had broken out at Roree, on the opposite bank, near Sukkur, and fears were entertained that it would not be long in making its appearance in the can tonments. Two of the prize agents have published a letter in justification of the manner in which the jewels and orna ments of the Princesses of Hydrabad came into their pos session, which sadly disagrees with their statements to Sir C. Napier, in 1843, published in the Blue Book ; and which has been well commented on by the Bombay Courier. Our latest letters from Kurrachee, are of the 20th iast., brought by the Indus steamer—the first steam trip of the season ; at which time the troops were generally healthy, and the weather pleasant. At Ssikkur the heat is described as intense. An officer of the 3rd Cavalry, on outpost duty beyond Shik arpoor, had been arrested, and reprimanded by authority, fur—for what think you ? Why, for sending assistance to a friendly clan of Beloochees who had been attacked by a hostile one ! Surely the fault committed was not of such a nature as to require the arrest of an officer who had merely erred in judgment at the most ; if his orders were strict not to pass the boundary, of remise he deserved a reprimand ; but, unless his disobedience endangered the lives of the troopers sent out, I think an arrest too severe a penalty for his indiscretion. Since our occupation of Scinde has proved a curse to India, the sooner its former rulers are blessed with • restoration to power the better will it be for us in every respect. England should net persist in sin because in evil hour she departed from the paths of virtue. The disgraceful state of Madre in the Niram's dominions heebeen so frequently mentioned, that I fear your readers hue become tired of the subject. All the refractory remin ders, or landholders, have been ordered to repair to the capital, and, if necessary, coercive measures will be had re comae to, to compel them to obey the mandate. The curse of the country seems to be the large bodies of Arabs, and Sikhs, and other foreign mercenaries, who have taken up their abode in it; and, till they are expelled, it is useless to expect anything like order or regularity to prevail. Certain privi leges which the aemindars haveenjoyed from time immemo rial having been curtailed, would appear to be the prime cause of their disaffection ; added to which the tax on their estates has been raised to an extravagant sum—higher, in fact,. than they can afford to pm : and in order to enable them to evade the payment of such unjust exactions they have recourse to the bands of unemployed mercenaries everywhere abounding in the couutry, and whisk, doubtless, was the cause of such numerous bodies of these lawless men seeking admission into the Deccan. When they are not required they are turned adrift, and, knowing no trade but that of soldiers, they resort to plunder foe sub sistence. Till a bold stroke i► made at the roots of the crib. now existing, peace or tranquillity, much less good go vernment or prosperity, cannot be looked for in the domi nions of the Nizam. The Nies= is said to have at length remitted to the British Resident for counsel; and if this be true. we may shortly expect to hear of a better order of damp being established.. By the treaties existing betwixt the two powers it was necessary that our aid showdcl be soli cited ere we could interfere in the affairs of the state ; this once requested, it lays with ourselves as to how far we shall carry our reformation of existing abuses into effect. The disturbances in the Cusldapah collectorate have hap golly been suppressed. The error at first committed of sent_ Uwe out a small party of troops against the rebels was soon rectified, and large detachments from all the surrounding metiers were despatched to the scene of disturbance. The rebels were attacked in the town Mondlepired and defeated —their leader unfortunately escaping during the conflict. He is now a fugitive, and well no doubt shortly be in our custody, the police of the district being on his track in hot pursuit. Our troops were greatly harassed by their long marches, hut behaved exceedingly well when they came up with the insurgents, and made short work of it with them. The events which have transpired in other parts of India during the month have been few and unimportant. The captured Sikh guts reached Benares, midway betwixt Delhi sod Calcutta, on the 20th July. The ship Oriental, from Calcutta to ind: n, was wrecked on the coast near Jugger naut on the 31st ult. The 16th Lancers have left Calcutta for England, u also have the 31st Foot. The Bth Foot and 10th Hussars have arrives at Bombay. The vessel with the head-quarters of the former corps on board, has not yet made her appearance : the remainder of the corps has reached Poonah. The latter regiment starts for the same station on the 29th. The head-quarters of H.M. 22nd Foot have joined the left wing at Bombay fur garrison duty. Two new regi ments have been ordered to be raised at Ferozepore and Loodhiana, to be called after the places at which they are formed. The object of this measure would seem to be to allow such of the disbanded Sikh soldiery to obtain employ ment as wish it. A Lieut. Haveland, of the 62nd Foot, we. seriously injured by lightning at Mussoorie, but is. I believe, out of danger. The barque Guiana, from South Australia, was wrecked off the Mauritius about the latter end of Jane. The Governor-General and Lord Gough are still at Simla, from whence it is said the former proceed* on a round of in spection in October. The Governor of Madras is about to return to the seat of his government. It is said that Lord Hardinge declines accepting the pension granted by the Honourable Company conjointly . with that from H. M's Government. Trade at Bombay is beginning to revive, and the tightness of the money market has disappeared. Our new governor is extremely popular, and intends reviv ing the hospitalities of Government House, f.r a long time back in abeyance. The first public ball comes off. I believe, this evening. Sir T. Mc Mahon returns to England in February next; and our venerable Arch deacon in October next. A new college for the Elphinstone institution is about being huilt on the espla , nade ; as also a new supreme court-house. Sir Henry Roper leaves for England shortly--regretted by few. His lordship's public acts have gained for him an unenviable notoriety. Dr. Burnes, late secretary, Medical Board, has been appointed superintending-surgeon in Ooozerat. He has applied to be posted to the Scinde force. Mr. P. W. Le Geyt, C.S., has undertaken his duties as Prev. OrandMaster of Western India during hie absence. The monsoon has been one of the must favourable we have had for some time. The crops throughout the country present the most favour able prospects of an abundant harvest. Sickness has disap peared in a great measure from amongst the troops, and the inhabitants genially are very healthy. The deaths reported during the month amongst the officers of the army in India are the following : Lieut. H. B. Archer, 11. M. 86t1 Foot, Kurrachee, July 24—Assist.- Surgeon W.

Since my last communication, the revoltkion begun in the south and in Guadalaxara, has been completed, and General Santa Anna has returned to this country. On the day of the departure from Vera Cruz of the last packet, the garrison of that place pronounced for Santa Anna as Gua- dela:ire, and on the fourth of this month the capital fel. lowed. General Bravo placed himself at the header one portion of the garrison of Mexico, and the then government ceded the pal acs on the sixth without any resistance, which certainly would not have done any good if he had attempted it, as he could not rely on the army. On the evening of the fifth General Paredes had attempted to leave the city, with the view of taking the command of one of the brigades which were marching to the north, and to attempt some steps against the party of Santa Anna, but his intention was be trayed, he was overtaken about a league from hence, taken prisoner, and is now placed in the very prison in the Castle of Perote, where Santa Anna was previously confined. On the eighth of this month, a Couvocatoria for a new popular constituent congress was published according to the articles of the Pronunciarniento, but afterwards, the Constitution of 1824 was declared to be tempo rarily in force, and the late States reinstated in their rights. Santa Anna published an exposi tion of his views at Vera Cruz, addressed to the nation, in which he declares himself entirely in favour of a federal government, and seems to adopt the ultra-liberal opinions of the popular party. All the states of the republic have, without exception and without resistance, declared for this new order of things ; everywhere the talk is of a general arming of the people, and there appear, more signs of vitality in the country than I have witnessed for some years. An ultra-liberal ministry has been formed :--Gomez Ferias has accepted the charge of Minister of Finance ; Almonte, that of War ; Rejon, that of Foreign Affairs ; and Pacheco, the Department of Justice. Santa Anna is, of course, President, and is to arrive here on the third of next month. Everything concerning the movements of the army of the United States you will have learnt, ere this reaches you, by way of New Yotk or Philadelphia. We believe that one portion, which has taken possession of the state of Tamaulipas, and of all the smaller places beyond Mata moros, will, ere now, be in possession of Ciudad Victoria, as there are no Mexican troops in that part of the country to oppose them. We have no information concerning the movement upon Monterey. the capital of Nuevo Leon, but it is not to be expected that the garrison of that place, consist ing of 2,000 men, will make any lasting or effeetturesistance. We have at this moment small prospects of a speedy peace, and Santa/Anna does not even mention the subject in his above-mentioned address to the Mexicans. It is, however, said that he intends placing himself at the head of the troops, to try his luck against the Americans. The troops which have left this city are collected at San Luis Potosi, and he may have some twelve itiousaud men under his command. Per haps the habit of obedience to Santa Anna may have its in fluence upon them, and overcome their habitual aver sion to fighting. The clergy are sadly afraid that Santa Anna will confiscate their property, and their fear seems to me very well-founded.--On the seventh of this month, the American fleet made some demonstration against Alvarado ; but the unexpected resistance they met with, and the bad weather, caused them to give up the attempt, after some aimless firing upon the forts. The ports of California, Mon terey, San Francisco, and San Diego, arc occupied by the Americans ; but the inhabitants are said to have retreated into the interior, instead of hailing the Annexators. In the port of Tuxpan an American vessel of war was wrecked. and its crew, consisting of fifty-four men, were made pri soners. The most important piece of information for England is that the proposal of Mr. Manuel Escandon concerning the holders of the Mexican bonds has not been approved of. I cannot con ceive how this person has been able so far to deceive honest John Bull as to cause him to agree to a proposal which would prove positively as injurious to the bondholders as to Mexico, and would be of advantage only to Messrs. Escandon, Macintosh, Murphy, Schneider, O'Brien, and, as it is said here, Bsnkhead. 'this may servo you as another proof of the fact which I have repeat ed ly stated to you already, that British interests have here no worse enemies than Mr. Macintosh, the consul, and Mr. Bankhead, the envoy of Great Britain. The recall of Mr. Murphy from his post will reach London by this.packet, and I am of opinion that, even if Mr. Macintosh should, as is very probable, offer to Santa Anna some participatisn in this business, the situation of the latter is such that be will be compelled to adhere to the present resolution and the recall of Mr. Murphy. How could the English capitalists believe it possible that in the present state of the finances of this country Mexico could afford to give up a larger portion of its revenues than before ? The whole business is an invention of Messrs. Macintosh and Escandon, and the per centage which the holders of the bonds were to give up was meant to fall into the hands of these gentlemen and their coadjutors, they intending to give up some trifle of their gains to this government. It is sup. posed here that in case of MCCOMAS they would have netted from 3 to 4,000,000 piastres. EXPRESS FROM PARIS We have received the Paris journals of Wednesday with our private correspondence. The Journal des Debuts has entirely ceased its polemics on the Spanish marriages, and contents itself with recording with great pomp all the circumstances attending the Due de Montpensier's journey. The two French Princes were to arrive at Madrid early on Tuesday. We read in the Conslitutionnel. " It appears that M. Guizot only replied on Sande) , last to Lord Normanby's note, and he has not now answered in direct terms, but confined himself to sending to the English Ambassador a copy of a despatch. which he has forwarded to M. de Jarnac, the French Marg.: d'affaires in London. This despatch, penned in an evasive manner, and in which the question is rather eluded than discussed, is not, it is said, of a nature to terminate the differences between the two governments. ;'it --- isadded that, in exchange for this communication, Lord Normaeby has seat to M. Guizot a copy of a fresh pro test, still more energetic than the former, sent by Mr. Bul wer to M. 'stunts. " It appears moreover that protests multiply in Spain. Government has received them from Barcelona and Sara geseveses. no ß t y b ttr e ts iatbilleppzarsrepthats the t thre o t te o n f t G o e f ne t r h a e l po ßr p e u ton la tam." - - - - M. de Lastartine has leaned his manifesto upon the Spanish marriage; it is, like everything from his pen, very elegantly written, but both parties will find in it arinents in favour of their opinions. The Baroness d'Arnim, wife of the Prussian Am bassador, has died in Paris after a short illness. By letters from Madrid of the 2nd instant, we learn that en the previous day, in the Senate, the discussion commenced on the Rules of the Chamber. After some observations made by the Marquis de Falcee and Del Valle de Rivas, it was declared by a majority of 29 to 27, the discussion should take place article by article. There was a warm debate on the Bth clause, respecting the bureaux, which was even tually voted by 47 votes to 19. The Senate then (adjourned. Eco del Cameral° remarks: "It was stated this evening that the posts were strengthened, and the generals and officers bad been sum moned to their quarters. We do net understand such mea sures at the moment when they are preparing files, and when persons in office are always talking of the public felicity." The private correspondence of Le National states that Don Francisco d'Assis had declined to receive the body of general officers who were coming to compliment him on his approaching nuptials, saving that as the rain descended violently on the day proposed, he would excuse them. But it is believed that as l'exuela was to be the orator on the occasion, and that it was he who, as Minister of Marine, signed the sentence of Don Enrique's exile, it was from fra ternal feeling that 1)on Francisco declined the meet keg, of which.Pezuela was the chief. ITALY.—ROME, SILITEMBER 2&—We read in the Courrier &Marseilles ;—" The first official act promulgated by Pius 11. does not augur well for his new administration. The folkaring changes have taken place. M. Corboli, for. merly delegate of the Consistory, has been appointed under secretary for foreign affairs, vice M. Santucci, who is to oc cupy a similar situation in the interior, vice M. Candle., made secretary of the chamber. Monsgr. Lucciardi, presi dent of the chamber, that is to say, of the province of Rome, is appointed episcopal secretaty, vice Monsgr . Balussi, raised tothe episcopal see of Imola. Monsgr. Conventali is appointed president of the province. Monogr. Vici, already delegate of Spoletto, is made judge of the Court of Cessation. Mensgr. Mali Lupi Soragna is appointed secretary to the Con sistory. None of these nominations have given satisfaction at Rome." GALICIA. LEMBERG, SEPT. 24. —Martial law will, it is said, be shortly proclaimed throughout the whole of Galicia, with the exception of Bukowine ; this measure will be enforced fifteen days after its publication in the Polish journal, which appears at Lemberg ; it is hoped that this measure will put a stop to the agitations which manifest themselves, and extinguish the communist ideas of the pea santry. Some late excesses, and different conflicts between the peasants and the soldiery, are the motives of this step. Winter and famine are feared as likely to come together. A society of Jews has bought a large store of provisions, which the/ sell at cost price to their brethren. WIRTEMBERG.—A letter from Stuttgart states that the want of provisions in the kingdom of Wurtemberg will be greater than was expected. The avidity of speculators still more augments the price of corn ; to obviate their manceuvres a committee composed of persons employed in the departments of finance and the interior, to whom have been added some respectable merchants, are soon; to com mence purchasing corn largely in foreign countries. A large sum of money has been placed at the disposal of the commit tee by the government, and on the 23d ult. a meeting of the principal inhabitants of the chief towns of the kingdom met at Plochingen, and decided to support the government mea sures by contributions of money. Large sums have been subscribed in different localities. The Grand Duchy of Hesse, following the example of the other German govern ments, and particularly those of Wiirtemberg and Baden, has also ordered provisions to be purchased abroad. A Hessian commissioner has passed a contract for 38,000 hectolitres of wheat in Holland, which is to be forwarded immediately by the Rhine to blentz.l GRAND DUCHY OF BADEN.--CARLSRUHE, OCT. 1. —A resolution of the diet of the German Confederation, dated 1820, frees any work consisting of more than twenty sheets of impression from all censorship.

P Mr. Victor Lebed-ni published ,says affn, without having at first obtained the conse n t o f his Majesty, „The History of the Reign of the Emperor Nicholas, fro m hi Accession on the 20th November, 1825, to the 20th Norm a , ber, 1845," in four chapters. The public censor gave him the imprimatur. Several Government papers contained Ma programme, which promised much, yet, as well-informed persons affirm, the author had considerably violated is many respects, the first duty of an historian,—sta m, partial truth, and to have acted the part of . a panmerist. It was scarcely published, when, hy supenor orders, it vas doomed to total destruction. The author was arrested for several days,f or his boldness, and the following irapcam decree was published: " No person shall publish in farm events which specially concern his Imperial Majesty, orllj members of his august family, without havin g fi rst o b tained the consent of the minister of his imperial household." UNITED STATES, &c. LIVERPOOL, THURSDAY AFTERNOON. We are in possession of New York papers to the late date of the 19th ult., by the ship Idarmion, just arrired. This vessel is not a regular packet ship, and brings but few despatches. The Cambria steamer, which sailed from this on the 4th ult., had arrived out with further news of the scarcity here ; but it is satisfactory to know that althoesk large purchases had been made, yet that the market had been very little affected by the news. The best inforard merchants were all of opinion that the wants of this ea un u y could be supplied without much difficulty. There have been frightful storms all along the seethes% coasts of America. Numerous vessels in distress are reported off the several capes by the pilots arrived at Norfolk, and steamers had been despatched to their aid. A letter from* passenger on board the barque Isaac Mead, from New York, bound to Savannah, say s:—" It is impossible to form any idea or estimate of the immense lose of life and property. We hazard little in saying that no vessel out at the time bat escaped without serious damage, while many have gone es. tirely to pieces, and hundreds, and perhaps thousands, af lives are lost. Two long boats, innumerable pieces of ship timber, barrels, and other portions of cargo, and one wreck of a vessel, were seen floating past us at various times during the gale, all of which bear testimony to the assertion vent ured above." It seems that the Mormons are again at arms to resist as authorities of the state On the 2nd ult. they were encamped about twelve miles from Nauvoo, ready to resist the execu tion of numerous writs on the part of the state officials. The armed posse then consisted of about twelve hundred men, with five 6 pound cannon, and one 24 pounder. As the leaders deemed their force sufficient, and had received the necessary quantity of arms and ammunition, and as many of their number, tired of delay, were daily leaving the camp, it was given out on Tuesday that thee_posse would leave the en campment at daybreak the next (Wednesday) morning, and march for Nauvoo. The officers, It is said, have one hundred writs on as many individuals in Nauvoo, which they express their determination to serve, even if necessary to cater the • town by force. In Nauvoo,.there is said to tie from five to six hundred Mormons under arms, determined on resist ance. They have several pieces of cannon, and the Temple has been fortified. Another letter mentions that the Anti-Mormons had with them a portable furnace for heating balls, so as to fire the city and Temple. The Western mail brings St. Louis papers to the 10th, and news from Dent's Fort, that the Indians were attacking emigrating parties on the prairies to a great extent. Letters had been sent to General Armjo by a number of the principal citizens of Santa Fe, calling on him to adopt measures for the defence of the city and their property against the Ameri cans. General Arroyo replied that if they would row and assist him he would fight as long as they desired, but that he had not the necessary force to defend the place spinet the predatory Indians, and could do nothing that would avail against the Americana. The state of the corn, flour, and provision market being the all-important matter of the present time, our arranr ments at New York enable us to publish the following intelli genet, and which gives the prices at New York on the 19th alt., after the receipt of the steamer Cambria famine near teem this country :- Maw Yoax, Starr. 19.-Punta AND 31xiL.--Genesee, per barrel. 411. 76e. to sd. • Ohio, via can, 413. 69c. to 4d. 7k. ; Michigan, 7k. to 4d. 61c.; i'roy, 4d. 75c. to 4d. 81c. ; Pennsylvania, 4d. 624 c.; Brandywine, 4d. 75c. ; Georgetown, 4d. 921,c to 4d. 7.5 c. ; Boa 'd at., 4d. 624 e. to 4d. 75e. ; Rich'd city in, sd. 75e. to 6d..• do. country, 4d. 50c. • Alexandria, 41. 50e. ; Fredericksburg, 4d. 621 e. • Petersburg, 4d. 56c. to 4d. 824 c.; rye dour, 3d. to 3d. snc.; corn meal , 3d. to 3d. 50e. • do., per bbd., Isd. to 15d. 374 c.

PHILLIPS.-SEVENTEEN LIVES LOST.-Sailed from Gal veston for New Orleans at 4 o'clock r.x. oa Saturday the sth inst. At 10.30 P.X., finding it blowing very heavy from E.N.E., with a heavy sea running from the outward, we came to an anchor in eleven fathoms water. At 11 AS., Sunday morning. finding the wind lulled in a great mea sure, we weighed anchor and proceeded on our course. At 11.20, the wind increased, and finding that she made no headway against the wind and sea, we came to anchor in ten fathoms water. At 111 the wind increased, and blew a perfect gale from the north and east, a tremendous sea from N.E. At 12 (midnight) we commenced dragging our anchor, fired up strong, and got on all steam and tried to keep her up to her anchorage. At 2 A.M., Monday the 7th the wind hauled to S.W., and bore her in the trough of the sea, slipped the cable, and set the jib with the hope of gee• ting before the wind; the jib slipped almost immediately after being set, and a heavy sea struck her larboard gunnel, carrying it away, and strained the boat so much as to cum her to leak considerably. We let go best bower and veered away to seventy-five fathoms, in hopes to bring her head to sea, but owing to the violence of the wind, we found she would not do so. At 4 A.M., in a heavy squall, carried away smoke pipe and lifted the promenade deck, stove in the starboard guard and wheel-house, causing the boat to leak in such a manner as to extinguish the fires in the furnace; all hands employed in bailing out with buckets, and the pump kept going with the hope of keeping her afloat untilthe wind and sea moderated, but found it of no avail, for at 6 A.m. she went down in ten fathoms water-the wind blowi..g perfect hurricane. The New Orleans Picayune of the 10th adds the follow ing : "We have had a long conversation with Judge Toler, who was one of the passengers on the New Yolk, and the account he gave us of the wreck and of the preservation of those who escaped death, was extremely interesting. The above statement made by the clerk is confirmed by him, sate in one unimportant particular relating to the loss of one of the boats. The appearance of the Galveston certainly ap pears to have been providential. Had she left at her usual hour in the afternoon, she would have passed the scene of the wreck in the night, and the chances a-c that she would not have discovered it. Happily she left Galveston in the forenoon, and having herself felt something of the violence of the gale, and then noticed portions of a wreck floating at intervals, everybody on board was on the look-out, I and the survivors of the New York descried upon their various rafts, formed of portions of the wreck, spars, 8:c. AS fast as possible all were rescued, Capt. Wright humanely exerting himself first to save those s.hase support aPPen iel .. most frail. It requires but a moment to write of this. but it Was the work of hours. The passengers speak warmly of the kindness and prudence of Capt. Wright, as well as of C!pt simpson, a Galveston pilot, who was on board. The hew limas resisted the unexampled violence of the gale much longer than could have been expected, and sank very grads - I ally. A little before she went down, the motion of the boa t as she fell over on her side caused her bell to strike a single stroke; the knell, as it were, of the noble ship. Capt. Phil: lips was calm and determined throughout the dreadful scene. The passengers were apprised of Gulf danger betimes, and the men among them joined the crew of the vessel and laboured long and wearily in the execution of the orders of the captain, who availed -himself of every re• source to keep his ship afloat, and save the lives of those 0 0 board when the crisis came.
