" His excellency has ever entertained the highest opinion as well of your integrity and professional talents as of your character as a gentleman, nor has soy recent occurrence given him cause to alter such opinion ; and I am directed so say that you have his per mission to make the same known to the public in any manner you may think proper.

From the Messages des Chanibres of Saturday— Second Edition. The Chevalier de Barbosa, Brazilian Captain of Engineers, and Messenger to the Embassy, went through Paris yesterday, coating front Rio Janeiro, and going with the greatest speed to Munich. The purport of his journey is not made public; however, it is known that it relates to the marriage of Don Pedro. The wind was so violent last night that a great number of trees in the Clause& du Main were torn up hy their roots. A very ele gant routed. on the Pout des Arts, used as a anima obscure, was also blown down. It is stated from'St. Petersburgh, that for some time past the French Ambassador. N. de Mortemart, has taken no part in di plomatic affairs. It is mentioned in the Goortiede Si. Peinviurgh that his Majesty the Emperor has appointed Countess Diebitsch as Lady of Honour to the Empress, as a mark of his high esteem for the distinguished s•rvices rendered by her husband to the empire. The two ffagllsh steam-boats. George the Fourth and Camilla, which left Southampton at nearly the same time in the evening, arrived together at seven o'clock the nut morning at Havre. They had a great number of passengers un board. amongst whom was Lord Cochrane. A Russian sailor, who bad been thrown into the sea by an Ame rican, in the Port of Havre, and drowned, during a contest that bad taken place between them and the Americans, was found still holding in his band, with hie gingers contracted, the knife which he had made use of to defend himself. The police have taken cog nisance of this affair, in which several tailors were most severely wounded. We are informed from Laval, that the Portuguese emigrants who have been residing there for some months have received an intimation from the Prefect of the Department that they are to be di•aeminated in various parts of France, and that they Will receive their route by the 13th of this month, as Government will not allow more than six officers or 12 men in each town. The grief of these brave men cannot be depicted ; they say that the French emigrants were treated quite in another manner in title country ; the priests were well lodged in the convents, and the officers ad mitted into their army. EGYPt—ALI• XANDRIA, Am. 7. The military organisation of Egypt has undergone a great num ber of changes: it is at present entirely in the hands of Ibrahim Pacha, as the Viceroy appears to have only reserved to himself a small portion of the Administration, principally that relative to agriculture. His son, who front his earliest infancy has 'hewn a decided turn for arms. will most likely carry the military profes sion in Egypt as far as be possibly can, at least as far as his finances will allow. It is to be expected that in a few years the army will not only be considerably increased, but also put on the most respectable footing Ibrahim Pacha adopts the system of employing the soldiers, as soon as they are perfect in their exercise, in works of public utility. Is was by this means that the Romans were enabled to construct their colossal buildings, and by occupying thousands of hands were enabled to erect buildings, the grandeur of which strikes with astonishment even the men of our age, which is so fertile in inventions. This system offers a double advantage—that of providing for works which it would have been impossible to have undertaken by paying workmen; and also that of keep ing in vigour men accustomed to work, and who can support all kinds of fatigue: The Viceroy and his son still continue at Alexandria. Among the Nobles of the Court about them is Varna Babri, who bolds a high office in the Treasury, and in whom his Royal Highness reposes great confidence. Councils are fre quently held ; and the question relating to a general reform in the Administration, which has already been in agitation for several months, is minutely examined. Many iniuential persons in the Council have given their opinion that henceforth the Government ought not to export any produce on its own account, but completely to abandon exportation to merchants. Should 31ebenset Ali assent to this %Mien, and allow it to be adopted, it will be an important amelioration to European commerce. MADRID, Oce. 2.—(Be &rani.) By commercial couriers who arrived yesterday, express, we have received information of the Amnesty which is to be granted on the occialon of the marriage of his Majesty King Ferdinand VII. and in celebration of the safe arrival et the Spanish Expedition on the coast of Mexico. A general amnesty will be granted for political offences and opi nions : at the same time certain persons will be forbidden to ap prtucli the capital.

Moree, was totally lost on Fisherman's Flat, at 3, a. nt. yesterday. No lives were lost. We heard the particulars of the murder of a Kumar At lih sea- Winer. Lakshmikanta, Kirmakar, sad Pitambar Roy, a liajpet, were on intimate terms with the wife of one Haladhar Kirmakar, of Bhavanipur. in the vicinity of Calcutta. In the month of Magha last, they, with her advice, invited her husband to partake of a repast with them in the dwelling of Kasinath Roy. of the same place, where they entertained him with meat and wine in the night. and having thus intoxicated him, strangled him with a rope. They then threw his corpse into a well there, and covering it with filth. retired to their respective lodgings. Four or five days after this, those murderers, discontinuing their visits to their mistress, she called upon them, and using various arguments to encourage them, made them consent to an interview with her in the evening, but they absconded the same day. She afterwards diligently sought after them, but in v a in; when she, finding they forsook her, to whose fr iendship she sacrificed her husband, reported to the Daroga of the place, that her husband was murdered by Lakshmikanta, Kirmakar, and Pitambar Roy, and showed him his corpse in the well. Th e Daroga then insti tuted a particular inquiry after the murderers whom he appre hended with great difficulty, and. with the woman, sent them to the Magistrate. We understand that they are well secured in prison, but their trial has not come on. Arau. 22.—A letter from the Mymensing District, of a late date, mentions a providential escape which a gentleman had while out hunting. The first day he killed two tigers, one of which bad previously destroyed a native. Neit day, while going up the bank of an old tank, a tiger sprang out from among the rubbish and ve getation. and fastened on his elephant, dragging the animal so much down to one side, that the gentleman fell out of the howdah upon his back , when the tiger and himself rolled down the bank toge ther! The rest of the party thought, of course, that their compa nion's doom was sealed, but, to their great satisfecdon, they saw the tiger making off as fast as be could, while the gentleman got up, having providentially escaped with a few scratches only. Accounts from Benares of the 11th instant state that the Hon. Company's steamer Haighly could not be gat higher up the Ganges than a plan called Kutchwa. about 15 miles below Mina pore and about 10 front Allababad. Her further progress was stopped by a shoal, or sand reef, extending completely 'ens' t he channel between the Ketchwa and Badollee banks—the greatest depth of water across which was 2 feet 6 inehes—the vessel at the time drawing 4 feet 1 inch forward. and 3.5 aft, having only 100 maunds of coal on board, and all the passengers and baggage, and freight, having been landed. Even had the steamer been able to overcome this difficulty, greater 'still, it was believed, were to be got over before she could reach Allahabad. and, bad she ever suc ceeded in getting there, it was supposed the could not be got back before the setting in of the nins. Under these circumstances it was deemed the most advisable plan to return to &flares, and there wait further instructions. MURDER of Lieutenants BEDINGFIELD and BURLTON. ( Front the Goeereeteet Gazette of April U.) We are concerned to state that account. have been received from Mr. Scott, the agent to the Governor-General in Assam communicating the melancholy intelligence that two &kid: Officers, who were residing there for the benefit of their health at Nunelow, in the Cossya hills, have been cut eff by the bill people at that place. The particulars are not yet fully known, but it is understood that Lkut. Bedingfield, ene of the sufferers, was mur dered on the spot, and his head severed from his body. With respect to the other officer, Lkut. Burka', be is said to have taken refuge in the bungalow with four Sepoys, and to have defended himself until neat morning, when he effect ed his escape, and retreated fur 18 or 20 miles towards Gowshatty. A shower of rain coming on, the fire-arms of the small party were rendered useless, the men with Lieut. Beaton then dispersed themselves in the jungle ; but tine of the Sepoys made good his way to Assam, where he tell in with a detachment proceeding to Nunelow. This man reports that be saw Lieut. Button fall down, exhausted with fatigue, when he was surrounded and carded of by the Cossyahs. We fear, therefore, that but slender hopes can be entertained of his ultimate fate. Mr. Scott was at the time at Cburra Poongee, considerably to the southward of Nunelow, in the Fondue range of bills towards Sylhet, and had called for a party of the Sylhet Local Corps, with which be was to return to Nunelow. The principal members of the Nunelow Itajah's family had come in to Mr. Scott, and ex pressed their abo, rence of the treacherous set alluded to, which, however, was perpetrated, it is said, in his own presence. It is but a short time ago that we published extracts from the journal of Mr. Walters amongst the hill tribes, or Couyahs, de scriptive of the a carry of the Punduah mountains, and making such gratifying mention of the manners and disposition of the peo ple, as could scarcely have prepared us for accounts of such a vio lent and atrocious nature as it has been our sad task to refer to.— They ire, it would appear, a wild uncivilised race, inhabiting that 'mountainous belt of country, extending about fifty miles in breadth betweem Assam and Sylbet. From all accounts they are not des titute of those rude virtues peculiar to bill tribes, and in the ab sence of more reasonable motives, for the atrocious outrage just committed is their territories, it may, perhaps, be attributed to one of those blindly vindictive paroxysms founded on some mis taken principles to which wild and savage people occasionally yield. In l a nguage and appearance, no less than in customs, they are said to differ materially from the surrounding tribes. They are unac quainted with the use of fire arms, and employ bows and arrows in their warfare. It will be recollected that by a treaty ececuted about three years ago, the Rajab of Nunelow made himself sublvet to the Honour able Company, and placed his country ender the protection of our Government ; and the political agent had, with his permis►ion, erected a bungalow for invalids at Nunelow, the capital of bis country. A full account of the she chosen for the Santarium, appeared in the number of this journal for the 27th May 11127. It was stated to be on table-land, elevated between five and six thousand feet above the plains, with climate so cold, that for three mouths in the year the rivulets are, in the mornings, fringed with ice, and the ground frequently covered with snow, and this, ton, within three weeks voyage of Calcutta. The place was generally approved of, oat only as respected its own merits as a sanatory station, but as likely to facilitate a friendly intercourse with our new neighbours, and the improvement of the roads and tracts of a rugged country but hitherto little known to Europeans.
