The coaling arrangements of the Eattera Archipelago Company appear to be on a par with the colonial prospects, since the Honourable Compthy's steam frigate Semiramis had been waiting from Jan. 97th to April 10th for soffi. cleat coal (270 tons) to enable her to reach Sing'. pore ; the quality being such that one of ' the officers of the steamer writes as: "Coal ie gat scarce, and of the worst descrip lion, we were hardly able to keep op steam with it. 11 steamers depended on Libman for coal, their tience would be put to the test." The Messieurs Motky were still working the opal at a very heavy loss to the Eastern Archipelago Company; and yet what a to do was made about this self same coal, in the speeches of the Labnan advocates, when parliament was cons/aid Iwo voting 10,0001. a year for the piece of whirs jobbery, the other manna expenses, some additional 13,00 W. to 15,0001., being annually placed under some one or other of the undefined charges which figure in the estimates.

BATAVIA, APRIL 28.—lie events of the month have been of a trivial nature, and there is little to chronicle. The lateinsurrections have been put down, partly by force, and report says conciliatory meaan-es were extensively employed, which is highly probable, sites the hold upon the affections of the natives isnot of so deep a character as to prevent the natives from throsiug off their entire allegiance to the Dutch, could ti.ey do so successfully. Full details have been received of the encounter with pirates noticed in lot month's communication ; but they have reached as so long after occurrence as to deprive them of all interest. From the examination of the prisoners it would appear the piratical prahus were fitted out at Sitkep and Lerigs, places in the Nilo residency, and not far distant from Singapore, not for the purpose of piracy, bat as tripang (beche•de-mer) fishers, and that hating had ill-luck, adverse winds, and being short of provisions, they had adopted the ordinary Malay plan of levying contributions on the inhabitants of the casts, a course fully justified by Malls) an morality. Accoults have reached here of the loss of the Belhaven, of Livetpol, on the coast of Bally, and of the Dutch ship, Mr. Cornelis Haig, with a cargo of tea' from Whanipos to Amsterdam— both crew. saved.

Both repasts being terminated, they returned to the banquet room, and resumed the seats at assigned to them. One-half of the gallery at the end of the room was filled *ids ladier, the other occupied by the hand of the Cold stream Guarde, who, as tee clammy entered, played • grand mares on the Indian air " Topple Wallah, and in the coarse of the avenieg a variety of atimirab.e polka. end quadrille', and some "'levies. from Verdi and kleyerbeer. The CHAIRMAN gave as the first toast, "The Health of her Majesty, and may she long reign in the hearts and affec tions of her people," and next, that of " His Royal High tail' Prince Albert," who, he observed, had won the esteem . . .1 all by Ids as :ions desire' to promote Um ragas good, by his talents and accomplishments, mud by u • example of dont/sue Tutu he exhibited in his bigh station. It is un necessary to say that both touts wen ri spondsd to with enthusiasm. The CHAIRMAN then row to propose a least which, he said, was of special interest on this occasion, when they had the honour of entertaining a distinguished Nepaule se officer, the Prime Minister of the Rajah of Nepaul, and the Cum mender in-Chist of the Nepaulese knees. His Excellency was also charged with a mi-sion of friendship to this CAM try Winn his liighnew the Rsjah to her moot gracious XI jetty ()own Victoria—(applause)—anit weather they regarded the novelty of his Excellency's visit as exhibiting en his part the courage and the energy for witch he was so famed, or whether they viewed it in a more general end important light, as indicating on the part of his High' nese the Rsjah of Napo' a desire to acquire useful informa tion an.: knowledge, with the inteniwn of ben fi mg and ameliorating the condition of the people of his country—in either point of view it was a subject of congratulation to them and to all who took an interest in the affairs ot India and the happiness of her people. Though, co doubt, his Excellency would witness during his sojourn in England a variety both of got d and evil, he (the chairman) hoped that it would be known'''e for him to return to his native country without bearing with him an impression favourable to the country, honourable to the government, and creditable to England. The acute mid of his Excellency would not tail to per ceive that in this happy country loyalty to tee crown and respect for the laws was not incompatible with the freedom, independence, and happiness of the subject. (Hear, hear.) He would also be able to tell hie real awn that not only the East India Company, but all Boelithmen, entertained a respect for other countries, not on account of their might, their power—not for the extent of their dominions, but on the principle of mutual sympathy end good-will among men. He begged to drink the health of the Rsjah of Nepaul, and his Excellency, Oeneral Jung Baltewoor, prime minister of Nepaul, and ambassador to this country. (Loud cheers ) His Exaelleacy JUNO BAHADOOIi replied in Nepani es*, which was interpreted by Capt. Civenagh as follows Capt. KAVENACiIi said, as political officer attached to the embassy of Repaid, it b ecame his duty to interpret the speech which his excellency had delivered. His excellency stated that he had long seen that the destiny of Great Bfl. sin was great, and that especially he bad witneseed the c e goists achieved during the reign of her protect moat gracious Majesty—that be had seen the wisdom of her senators, the gallaatry of her soldiers, which dazzled the eyes of the world as the brightness of the nut dueled the eyes of mankind— that having seen that wisdom and known that gallantry, he deemed it his duty to visit this land, to pay his respects to the sovereign who ruled over this win and gallant nation. lie stated that they had suffered much—and certainly, added the interpreter, they had suffered—in erossiog tee ocean; bet that the Idadans sad courtesy which they had experi noted upon their arrival had repaid them double sun treble all the miseries they bad endured. He further stated that his army, his munitions of war, his own life, should be de voted hereafter to the service of the British. (Loud cheers ) lie tunnel that the relations of entity sad emceed which had so long existed between the two governments would be disturbed, and in conclusion. he begged to is turn this company his sincere and cordial thanks for drink ing his health in connection with the king his master.

VAN DER WEYER, the Belgian Ambassador, ac knowledged the toast on behalf of himself end the other foreign ministers pnsent, and begged to say that they all hailed the present:sof their dearbronter diplomatist—(cheen) —as one of the numerous proof, of the happy rapid?; with which the seeds of civilisation, sown by British wisdom, pro duced their best fruit.. (Renewed cheers.) Since their arrival in the centre of that civiliation, these visitors from Nepali] had had several opportunities, but than on this day, of witnessing how magnificently and nobly England understood and practised hospitality ; and he trusted they would be convinced that Englishmen were not swayed in these attentions by the mere attraction of novelty, but that these demonstrations in favour of foreign ministers, far from cooling down into cold indifference, very often warmed into true and sincere and durable friend ship. (Cheers.) The CHAIRMAN then proposed the health of bee Ma jesty's ministers, coupling with the toast the name of Sir J. Hobbouse. fkr J. HOBHOUSE begged to say that he took great pride in thinking that the little that he might have eootri buted town* the administration the affairs of India had met with the approbation of the E at India Company He was always happy to meet the Company, but especially °Milks oc °alio°, when he saw before him the frail of their continued endeavours to civilise and to add to the hoppingss of not only their own dominions, but the eountries contiguous to that gnat empire, which with swift and giant strides had now approached within so short a distance of that other em pire, between which and their own there was no one ex cept the master cf their boa. visa, who held an independent and important °patrol. (Hear, hear.) He had no doubt that from this visit, even were there cot the previous ecadust of the sovereign whom his excellency obeyed, and they all esteemed, to confirm the anticipation, that should it become a question hereafter whetter he would side with the Celestial Empire on t'e north-east of his country, or with the dominions ruled over by the Ent India Company, they need not fear that their szeollent guest would at once perceive that it would be for the interest, the advantage, and that which he was sun his Excellency esteemed more than all, the happiness of his eountre—that he should not hesitate for a moment in deciding between that empire and ours. (Load sheen.) He happened to recollect the very words of the deepoteh 'Mick anointed the coming of his Excellency to this canary. The resident than, the excellent servant of the company, Major Hornby, announced that it was the wish of the Rajah of N. pool to send en embassy here, and he added, " he comes to see and to bring bock intelligence of the power and greatness of the country sad of its capital, of the perfection of its social cenditloc, and 0 its art. and sciences, which have contributed to the semSerts and coo cecinas s of his."

The CHAIRMAN next proposed "The Howl Com ' mons " coupling with the toast the same of Lad ASHLEY, who said it was rather a did att thing to speak a basil of 668 gentlemen of so many different °pla ices. (A laugh) But be thought he might safely assert that every British House of Commons would rejoice in the I•llseaes and exteat et the East Ind% Compaay, if it led to such results me the presence of their diselogehised gnats indi cated.

Lord STANLEY, is returnieg his acknowledgments for the compliment, observed that, greatly as he value 1, at all times, any mark of courtesy or cordiality, or anything which could he construed Into pommel apprebstios, there were law portions of the cionalausity or few bodies whose good opinion he would be more proud of, or whine praise he wee more desirous to obtain, than that of the body who represented the great assembly he had sow the honour to address. It had not been hie lot, daring a political life of many years, is oaks and oat of canes—bat more frequently and happily the latter—to have had the good fortune to be unseated with the affairs of the Hen.. Bast India Company; but it was Imo possible for him to have looked at the progress which the company had made without being sensible of she benefits which it had conferred upon the vast empire over which it ruled with a prudence, xis), and ability not eclipsed by the mightiest menu= in the world. (Hear, hear.) It they looked at the House of Lord., they would find that the most illuitricnts names among its mew ere wets thou who had won honours ie the East ; and it they turned their eyes to the may and nor', they would find that the moot dicinganbed Aims is both those services bad earned their reputation in those brilliaat engagements which bad eo leanly contributed to extend our possessions In that part of the world. (Hear, hear.) Aed it was the boast of the East India Company that to the most distant countries, where the religion, habits, and customs of the people were different from thus of our own country, they tied extended out British habits—bad inculcated a moped for the British name, en appreciation of British industry and enterprise; and, above all, bad spread to the furthest extremity of the umpire a knowledge, mpect, and Toners. Ito. for thou great institutions which had tended to much to improve and civilise. 11 there was any object more worthy of consideration than another, with reference to Isaias policy, it was the importance of developing the great re sources of the empire. To India we owed a large debt, for having supplanted her in her native manufaetures; bat it should be remembered that in return we bad spread the bleuiogs of religion, civilisation, industry, and coatentment to untold millions of happy mortals yet to come. This was an object worthy the ambition of statesmen—more important far thin the moat sucoesetel triumphs of arms which euuld be recorded. (Hear, hear.) And he knew no higher triumph or greater boast than the reflection that we had neer us not only those whom long habit had brought into constant inter course with us, but that we were gradually widening the circle of our fronds, and bringing even the princes of the East tato personal communication with the civilisation and power of Englaed. (Hear, bear.) Oars was the happy lot to se*, not indeed victories of orals or conquests of territorial posieisione, but the triumphs of ieflueoce, example, and friendship, which he trusted, throughout the world, would only be exerted beneetonrard to promote mutual good will and friendly intercourse amid all the nations of the woad. (Cheers.) The CHAIRMAN then proposed " The Civil Bionics of India, sad the Hun. Mr. Gardener, who had been for many years political roident at Hertel." Mr, GARDENER returned thank'. The CHAIRM AN again roe, and mid that the last tout on his list was "The Indian Army." He begged to propose that sere= by whose fidelity, reel, and courage the great empire of the Seat had been raised and was now maintained. (Cheers.) The company then retired, and his Excellency and the members of tte embassy were escorted to their carriages in us same order in which they had entered the room.—Mr. Toole attended in the capacity of toastmaster, and discharged the functions of Lis office with his usual efficiency. THE WELSH LANGUAGE. On Saturday a meeting of gentleman connected with Welles was held in the Welsh Charity School, Gray's- ' Im-road, to promote the increase of secular information amongst the Welsh people by means of their native language. The Earl of Pomo presided, and amongst the gentlemen present were Colonel Trevor, 51 P , the Dean of Bangor, Sir Thomas Phillips, W. Jones, Esq., R. V. Johnson, Esq., and the Rev. John Owen. peociseduogs commenced by Mr. Jean. tie secretary, reading an addsess from 62 Welshmen resident in Lou don and members of the Cymreigyddion &slily to Esrl Fowls. setting forth the advantages which would accrue to the Welsh people by the circulation among than of books of a useful character is their own language. He also read a circular signal by the Earl of Pow,., in answer to the address. This circular stated that— The population of Wales, including the county of Mon mouth, numbered, at the census of 1841, 1,045,763 persons, of whom it may be estimated that half a million either un- ' demand - no ether language than Welsh, or employ that imam as the ordinary medium of familiar communication. Not only is public worship conducted in the language of the native population In a large number of the pushes f Wales, but periodical publications printed in that len. guage, have an aggregate circulation of 00.000 copies, and are probably read by 200,000 persons. Religious and po litical controversies enter largely into the composition of those publications ; and when the study of polemical theo logy and piety politics is pursued with ardour, but ironer.' lite Titus. and popular Deimos are neglected, an injurious influence on the intellectual character of the people must be the mule Great efforts have recently been made to pro. vide for the people of the principality an education suited to their condition and by supplying works of a healthy and in 'tractive char-cur in their own tongue to thaw who either cannot or will not read English books, the improvement of that numerous portion of the community will be materially promoted. Ignorance of English and not the knowledge of Welsh is the great &stale to she advancement of the native population, and the acquisition of knowledge by the people is their own tongue will increase both the desire and the ability to acquire end ear ploy the English language." The Earl of POWIS said the address stated, _what was very well known to most persona costumed W with ales, that on me of the most Important breaches of instroction—tbat relating to matters of religion, then are, of one sort or an other, a very considerable number of books existing, and also a considerable number of periodicals published, and besides that, there are in this metropolis one or two societies already established for the purpose of publishing hooks connected with religious matters so that they might safely leave that department to those societies, and they moatd not be on the one hand intruding on their province, and attempting to set up works, either in opposition to theirs or attempting to set up an inferior orga nisation, to do the work which these societies had attempted, or on the other hand be exposed to the otjection of neglect ing or undervaluing religiose 'Batten. It was obvious to every one connected with Wales that there was a considera ble number of elementary books relating eskleteey, to semi tore, to chemistry, to maaufeethres, to the diffueat braaeltee of domestic industry, published at a very small price by different societies who had undertaken to convey information on there particular bespokee which it would be very desir able for the Welsh people that they should have translated into their own, because this did sot 'evolve any question of maintaining an exclusive knowledge of Welsh any mom then publishing English books in Wales involved any notion of hostility to the Welsh language. In the natural course of things the English kinguage would prevail more end more in the principality, and it would be a great advantage to the Welsh people to assist them in obtaining employment in England if the knowledge of the English age more prevalent. But, in order to spread know ledge wee among the Welsh people, it was necessary to enable them to obtain books published in their own language. The meeting was also addressed by Sir Tumuli Pamirs, Colonel Tatmon, the Dean of Bemetort, Mr. Joni., and Mr. MIIIDITH, who dilated upon the kind of works which it would be desirable to publish. All the speakers repudiated the notices that it was intended by this movement to per petuate the Welsh language, but contended that the pub of works in the Welsh language was the readiest, If s7s7tle only means of diffusing information among the Welsh. Eventually a neolution was carried in accordance with the object of the nestle'', and a provisional committee wig maimed for t the purpose of considering the best means of ist ai g tha object. • list of donations to the amount of 1161. was then an someed, and the nasal vote of thanks to the chairman wound up the proceedings.

Two evils were then lejuriouly affecting the trade end the rename. The accommodation for the landing midi deposit el merchandise was insufficient for the menu kis_besinne et the port. Plunder and pilferage of goods while en beard the skipping lyieg in the open river, waiting for Melt tuna to discharge their canoes—end while in the act of hang landed end warehoused—bad reached a height which neither the exertions of the aims of the revenue nor the vigilance of the police were able to repress. A reference to the evidence given before • committee of the House of Commons, at the time of passing the Bret Dock Act, will amply confirm this statement. A new and dis tinct branch of police was called into existence to check this evil. All proved ineffectual. The merchants saw their property abstracted—the crown guffaw' in its revenue. The merchants then came forward and took up the neatest. At ea e xpentature of millions tthe capitol of this company alone is 3,938,3101.) they constructed the noble establi s hments of docks sad warehouses which this port now enjoys. They enclosed them by high and sabetantial walls on the land aide ' and by Bold gates of the most solid kind on the water side. From that time, plunder and pilferage ceased. There was no longer any abstraction of property. re. °Meer. of the customs took an account of everything landed in the docks. The companies became responsible to the crown for the duties, and to the merchants for the due care of thtir merchandise. As a further safeguard to the crown, the Inks of the customs were p'aced on the company's ware homes, in addition to those of the company, and no goods were allowed to peas out of the dock', either by water or by land, without the concurring act of the officers of the customs. " This system has worked, my lord, most beneficially from that time to the present. The dispatch, order, and regula rity with which the batiste/got the decks has been transacted, I have been of the highest value to the 'mercantile body; while to the crown, the security it has afforded err the collection of t-e , and the economy it has enabled the Board of Customs to effect 'herein, hare been inch as it would not be easy to animate. In the year 1629, such was the confidence felt by the Board of Customs in the dock companies, that it removed from the docks all the customs' lockers employed in attend ing the delivery of dry goods, melting a saving to the crown thereby, in that item cone, of thousands per annum. The customs, at the same time, left the undiminished responsibility for the duties on the shoulders of the dock companies. Act ing in the spirit which the dock companies have always done towards the revenue, they cheerfully acquiesced in this _ arrangement. " Disregarding all the foregoing considerations, and acting under the guidance of some apparently new and sudden im. pulse, the hooourable Board of Customs has thought fit, my lord, within the last three mouths, to commence a series of snake upon this company, such as the correspondence already referred to will show to your lordship. It bat caused, during that period, a body of custom house officers to ransack the whole of the company's premises, to the great hindrance of business, and to the scandal of the port of London . ; it has made unl awful detentions and seizures of rods ; o ffi cers have gone round among the mercantile houses in the city, circulating the most atroci usly false re • ports of the proceedings in the docks ; these officers have been offering bribes to persons an the company's service to make dig clowns of something supposed to be known by them of wrong doings by the company ; while men of the worst character discharged by the directors for being detected in mavens doss in the docks, have been taken by the Customs into their pay. The directors entreat of your lordship an atten tive consideration of the whole of this correspondence. When it is oossidsred that the amount of duty on six articles alone now in the Landon Docks amounts to 14,739,7201., and when it is seen hew utterly insignificant are the cases of accusation brought forward *ay the Customs against the com pany, th e directors cannot but feel that no stronger evidence could have been afforded of the carefulness and fidelity with which the custody of this large property is conducted. the Board "f Customs has not may made seizures, my lord, which are absolutely unlawful, but it seems to raison stand its own position. Forgetting that its functions are limited to the care of the revenue, and feeling that in this capacity it had wholly exceeded its powers, it comes forward gratuitously to assume the office of " protecting the merchants" of Landon from the acts et the directors of the dock companies. The insinuation conveyed in this announcement is most offensive to the dinettes. I humbly ask your lordship to look at these facts ; that the directors of the three prin cipal dock companies, of whom I enclose a list, are ninety. two in number; that they are selected from the most considerable of the merchants of London ; that nicely every large mercantile firm hat a member in the direction of one or other of the dock establishments ; that these same directors rre consequently smug the largest owners of the goods deposited in the docks ; that they have neces sarily the deepest interest in suing that their goods are faithfully and honestly dealt with ; and then I would beg your lordship to consider whether anything more aunt. able, or more inconsistent with the relative positi in of the respective parties, can be conceived, than that a board of revenue should tell these patties that it comes forward to protect the merchants against their own acts as dock direeten. The last act of the Board of Customs took place on June 3. It has been the , under Exchequer process, of the superintendent, the inspector, and one of the principal ware house keepers, together with tome subordinate persons is the Company's service, on a charge of defrauding the reve nue. The directors can hardly trust themselves, my lord, to speak of this most offensive proceeding in the way which it seems to them to deserve. Although no details are yet given of the particular cue on which this proceeding is founded, it evidently re'ers to the case which formed the subject of a letter from the Company to the Board of Cue toms, dated the 4th instant, to be found at page 73 at the Correspondence. A more groundless proceeding can hardly be imagined than this, against these three officers, who have been from 28 to 36 years in the Company's main; men of the most unimpeachable integrity, excellent personal con duct, and enjoying the respect of all poetise having inter course with the London Docks. The utdeeent huts with which this proceeding has been taken has been such that the Board of Customs did not even wait, u will be seen by the Correspondence, for an answer to a representation which it had made to this Com pany on this subject, which answer is now before your lordship. A certain quantity of stuff, consisting of sawdust, lime, oil from truck wheels, etc., instead of be big, as formerly, thrown on the refuse' heap in the docks, and taken away by the scavenger, has, within the last four lours. been sold to a person called a 'scum boiler, ' for a very nsignificant sam per hundred weight. The w hole produce of this stuff for the said four yea ts does not average muss than 601. per annum, and it does sot appear to contain any ingredient liable to any duty whatever. But, without wait ing to hear what the directors of this company might have to say on the matter, the board of customs issues this one:i nn process against the respectable persons I have trail cited. " The directors of this company, feeling strongly the in. jury and interruption which these proinge on the part of the board of customs are occasioning to the commerce of the port of London, are very desirous to have the honour of a con ference with your lordship thereon, for which purpose they solicit that at an time which may suit your lordship's eon veal. nee, you will have the kindness to main a deputation from the court of directors of this company. I have the honour to be, my lord, your very faithful ser vant, JOHN CATTLBY, Chairman of the London Dock Company. MARTLZBONE VILVIST.—Tho natty Met on Satur day, as usual.

The annual trial of cricket strength between the gentle. men of the two universities came off last week on Cowley marsh. It will be seen that some unusually long stores were made, amongst which were those of Mr. Eden, 51; Mr. Aitken, 31; Hr. C. C deridgc, 43 and 11 ; the Hon. E. Bligh, 27, and Mr. F. Coleridge, 22 and 17 ; these were on the Oxford side. On the side of Cambridge, Mr. R. Edwards contributed 66. is which number were two lotus, six threes, and eight twos; but the only other dcuble scores on this side were that accomplished by Mr. Deacon—namelF, 36—and that effected by Mr. Fenn in his second hands, of 15. On each side there was a vast number of wide., which, to a air tsia extent, may be accounted for by the wetness. Notwith standing that fact, however, the total was larger :han it ought to have been. There was some fine batting in the course of the match. The 61 of Mr. Eden consisted of a five, two threes, eight twos, and a long string of singles; the 31 of Mr. Aitken comprised one five, lour threes, a two, and a balance of ones ; the 43 of Mr. C.Coleridgs contained a four, seven threes, two twos, and a quanti'y of ones; whilst in his eleven were a (our, two twos, and three ones ; the 27 which were effected by the Hnn. E. Bligh included three threes and a two, and the 22 end 17 which were tendered by Mr. F. Coleridge reedited from some of the finest hitting we have seen for a long time. His first number was composed of three fours, a three, a two, ands sufficient amount of singles to constitute the total, and his 17 showed two fours, two threes, floe two, and a single. the Oxford scored 211 and 117, or 328; whilst the sister university only olvained 146 and 55, or 201.

SUICIDE OF COLONEL CRAIGIF..—An appalling act of suicide was committed on Inday morning by Colonel Craigie, at hie own house, in Victoria-terrace, Mount Radford, Exeter. At break fast-time one of the servants was sent up stairs to call her muter, who was in his dresaingaroom. The servant went up and knocked at the door, but, not receiving any answer, she repaired down and informed her mistress. The latter having aleo knocked several times, and net being answered by her husband, she procured the aid of the coachmen and butler, who forced (pen the door, when they found the unfortunate colonel extended on the floor is a pool of blood, and most fright fully mutilated over serious parts of the body. His throat was cut completely from ear to ear, and there were wounds on Ns legs. Besides these injuries there were three wounds in his abdomen, which had evidently been inflicted with a knife. A razor and knife, both covered with blood, were found in the room. The;unfortunate colonel wu alive, but speechless from the excessive loss of blood, and it was Quite apparent that he could not survive many honey. Several medical men were soon in attendance, and they did all that was possible to save his life, but he died in less than as hour after he was discovered. A rumour was in circulation that the deceased had been murdered, but, from the inquiries made since, there is no doubt e n t er tai ne d that deceased destroyed his own life.
