They so perfectly resemble the natural teeth as not to be distinguished from the original by the closest observer; they will never change colour or decoy, and will be found very superior to any teeth ever before used. This method does not require the extraction of roots, or any painful operation, and will support and preserve teeth that are loose, and is guaranteed to restore articulation and mastication and that Mr. Howard's improvement may be within the reach of the most econo mical, he has fixed the charges at the lowest scale possible.

ARETIRED PHYSICIAN, whose sands of life have nearly run out, discovered while in the East Indies a certain cure for Consumption, A sthma, Bronchitis, Coughs, Colds, and General Debility. The remedy was discovered by him when Lie only child, a daughter, was given up to die. He had heard much of the wonderful restorative and healing qualities of prepara tions made from the East India Hemp, and the thought occurred to him that he might make a remedy for his child. He studied hard, and succeeded in realising his wishes. His child was cured, and is now alive and well. He has since administered the wonderful re lisedy to thousands of snfferers in all parts of the world, and he has never failed in making them completely healthy and happy. Wishing to do as much good as possible, he will send to such of his afflicted 'allow beings as request it, this r , tips, with fall and explicit direc tions for making it up and successfully using It.

To which are added remarks on the wonders of the Microscope in revealing the hidden mysteries "of Life within Life,' and its advantages in detecting, by urinary examination, the cause and effect of every variety of these complaints, with numerous engravings and cases., BY SAMUEL LA'MERT, M.D. 37, BEDFORD SQUA RE, LONDON, Matriculated Member of the University of Edinburgh, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, Licentiate of Apothecaries' hall, London, &c., &c. The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con sequences resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses, which have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man hood, and premature decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any other class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is particularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of their physical condition, and who are conscious of having hazarded the. health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is entitled, It In absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are rinelpies of personal management which cannot be violated with ut incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret sue ( eed the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how those penalties may be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may he removed, and how the evil and its consequences maybe avoided, and, above all, that there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional corangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure.

THE RELIEF OF LIICKNOW. [A portion of the following appeared in our late editibu of last evening :]— The Bengal Burkaru, of Nov. 24, after refer ring to the relief of Lucknow, says : " The accounts which have reached us of this event are very meagre, consisting of nothing but brief Government despatches. The loss is de scribed as being very heavy, but the numbers have not yet been returned, except as far as the officers are concerned, and these are not so great as had been expected. Our force was principally strong in artillery and infantry, and there must have been a great deal of close fighting and work for the bayonet. Since the last message was re ceived, telegraphic communication, which was re established between Cawnpore and Alumbagb, has been cut off. Whether the wires have been de stroyed or not, we are not aware, but two signal lers, who seem strangely enough to have been with out an escort, have been found murdered, which is quite sufficient to account for the absence of communication. News, however, is hourly ex pected, and before the mail leaves, we hope to be able to communicate to our readers that the ladies and children of the garrison have been removed. " The Pachete Rajah has been arrested under circumstances of strong suspicion, which seem jus tified by the fact that his house at Kossipore, near Rogoonathpore, was found to be fortified, surrounded by a trench, and to contain a number of warlike stores. there is no change, except through interference from home. The plan of Government is utterly inade quate to meet the losses of the non-official class, and their losses are the largest of all. Many of these persons have lost several lass of rupees, and if utterly ruined, and unable to set themselves up in business in any way, they stand a chance of getting two thousand." to Madras on the 3d November. The troops per the Sussex, viz., Rifle Brigade, were tran.hipped to H.M.S. Adventure, and sent down to Calcutta. The Monarch arrived at Bombay, Nov. 3, with the 2d Dragoon Guards. The City of Manchester ar rived at Calcutta with Ist Dragoon Guard., Nov. 9. REGULATIONS FOR MUTINIED REGI MENTS. The following remarkable order was issued o❑ the 18th instant : Nov. 14. The General Commanding-in-Chief is pleased to lay down the following rules for the disposal of men on fur lough, belonging to regiments which have mutinied or have been disarmed. I. Native officers, non-commissioned officers, and se poys who were absent from their regiment when it muti nied and became non-existent shall, on rejoining their station at the expiration of their leave, or on reporting themselves at any other station, be di , charged, receiving their pay in full to the day of discharge. The corps is dissolved by its own act, and they must take the conse quences. In the certificate of discharge furnished to such men it should be simply stated that, their regiments having mutinied, their services are no longer required. As, however, in several regiments that have mutinied a few men of a regiment have remained true, and as even where none have remained faithful there may be among the men who return from leave some whose cases deserve special consideration, it will be left open to the officers of regiments to which suoh individuals belonged, and to officers commanding stations at whioh such men may report themselves, to bring under the consideratio❑ of Government the cases of any such persons. But it is to be observed that all such exceptional claims to consi derati.)n must be supported by clear and specific reason•, and that in the absence of such reasons the general rul as above stated is to be adhered to. " The 32d mutineers have been pursued by Major English and Captain Rattray, but the greater part of them have got clear off, and will probably cause some trouble yet. The Gwalior mutineers are at Calpee, whore they seem to want an object. 2. Officers, non-commissioned officers, and sepoys belonging to regiments which have been disarmed, but are still doing duty, or to regiments which still retain their arms, will be allowed to rejoin at the expiration of their leave. Should any overstay their leave, men so returning late are to be reported—none being allowed to resume their duties nor to receive any pay until their cases shall have been considered by the Commander-in-Chief. All such men will be liable to dismissal and to forfeiture of pay, unless they can give some satisfactory proof of the manner in which they have been employed during their unauthorised absence. 3. Men reporting themselves at stations distant from those from which they took tbeir departure are not to be received, nor allowed to remain at such distant stati•ns, nor is any pay to be given, nor extension of leave granted to them. "In Central India there have been various affairs' with the mutineers. The most serious is the mutiny of the Kotah contingent at Kotah, and the murder of Major Burton and his two sons, as well as Dr. Solder and Mr. Saville. Major Burton had arrived at the presidency only a few days previously. He had no great reputa tion as a political, but he was much respected by his friends, by whom his loss will be deeply felt. " North-West is tolerably quiet ; but our gar risons generally are not very strong, and the rein forcements which are arriving almost daily in Cal cutta will be highly welcome in many places. Delhi is one of the few places where we have a giant's strength, and there we are using it like dwarfs. It is stated upon what we know to be good authority, that the King is treated with a degree of consideration and respect which fallen rascallity—even of Royal rank—never obtained before, and that he bears his honours with oriental moderation, merely intimating to British officers, by playful hints, that they must not keep their hats on in his presence, and so forth. Further, that hisson, aged 19, who was notshot with his brothers on account of his youth, rides about the city on an elephant, with two British officers behind him, to do him honour. Further, that there are a number of leaders kept in confinement-it is to be presumed of a similarly mild character — against whom no measures have been taken. No body seems to know at present who is to blame for this state of things, but Mr. Colvin's proelamation is mentioned as the impediment to justice. We believe, however, that the Government at Calcutta were unaware of these proceedings, and were as much surprised as the rest of us. How far the possibility of their being surprised in such a matter adds to their dignity, is another question. The impassability of the roads which such mon bring forward as their excuse for not returning to their proper statism is a difficulty occasioned by the crimes of their companions in arms, and they should suffer the conse quences. It should be certified on the certificates of leave which snoh men possess that o❑ a certain date they reported themselves at such a station ; but no promise of restoration to the service, and no encourage ment to hope for the recognition of the validity of the excuse they give for not having proceeded to their proper station, is to be held out to these men. Their having reported themselves being duly entered on their certificates, they are to be ordered to quit the station. The men alluded to under this head are those belong ing to regiments still armed, or still doing duty without arms. The cases of those belonging to corps which have mutinied are provided under the }lead.

Fo reigners must, for the future, have licenses to re main in this country, and to travel stating their objects, Ste, It is supposed that the presence of persons supposed to be Russians, with the muti neers at Delhi and elsewhere, and the intrigues of General d'Orgoni, otherwise M. Girodon, have led to this measure, which is no doubt a very proper one, and by no means disrespectful to foreigners, since it will not subject them to such strict curveilance as foreigners are subjected to nearly all over the Continent. " The despatch of the Court of Directors in definitely postponing the Black Act was brought before the Legislative Council on Saturday. The supporters of the act did not say a word in its favour, and the despatch was quietly referred to the committee upon the new code. This proceed ing has given great satisfaction to the European community, who look upon it as an indication of what is to come. OF MEDICINE. Patent Office Seal of Great Britain.

" The Government have published a resolution detailing the plan of compensation which they have decided upon for persons who have lost pro perty by the mutinies. It is very unsatisfactory, especially as regards the largest proportion of the military, and all of the non-official classes. The largest proportion of officers, are of course subal terns, and these are very hardly treated. Every subaltern, immediately after the mutiny of his regiment, lost his company allowance —one, or even more companies, as the case may be—and this loss extending over several months, is not t?dcon into account in any way. Officers in civil employ were permitted to draw their allowances up to the Ist of October, and many of them were able to regain their appointment before that time, and so have suffered no loss at all. This ine quality is unjust in the extreme. HUMAN FRAILTY ; a Medical Work, price Is., post free, illustrated with tOO engravings, containing the opinions of Val peau, La3lemanci, Roux, Ricord, te.

V. Claims to grants under this head by military officers on regimental or staff duty should be made to their commanding officer, or the head of their depart ment, who, after such inquiry ay he may think neces sary, may admit or reject the claim, subject in the case of rejection to an appeal to this Government. VI. No grant under this head will be made to the estate or family of a deceased officer, the object being to enable officers to supply themselves with necessary equipment without incurring debt, and no grant will be made to any officer whose loss may se-m to have occurred through any fault or neglect of his own. VII. With respect to the pensions to be granted to the destitute widows and children of uncovenanted officers who have lost their lives in consequence of the mutinies, his Lordship in Council observes Ulm no fixed rule exists for the determination of the amount of pen sions provided for their families by the subscribers to the uncovenanted service family pension fund ; but that the subscriptions to the fund appear to be for the most part in proportion to the salaries of the several members, and his Lordship in Council is of opinion that it will be equitable, in granting pensions in the cases ander con sideration, to divide the applicants into classes with reference to the salaries drawn by the deceased officers, in somewhat the same manner as is proposed for the regulation of donations to officers who have lost pro perty, :Ind to award pensions equal to the average amount of pensions ouFseribethfor by members of the fund of each class. -- - ZI-Ter-easTelsesealauses will be as follows :- 1. Cases in which the deceased men were drawing salaries of 500 rupees a mouth and upwards. 2. Cases in which the deceased men were drawing salaries of 300 rupees a month and less than 500 rupees. 3. Cases in which the deceased men were drawing 200 rupees a month and less than 300 rupees. 4. Cases in which the deceased men were drawing 100 rupees a month and less than 200 rupees. 5. Cases in which the deceased men were drawing 50 rupees a month and lees than 100 rupees. IX. Cases in which deceased men were drawing less than 50 rupees a month will be decided with reference to the pecuiirr circumstances of each, on the understanding that, as a general rule, pensions to widows shall not be granted in excess of one-fifth of the pay of the deceased officers, or to children in excess of one-fourth of the pet stone of the widni res. X. In all cases the pensions of widows shall cease on remarriage ; those of sons on their attaining the age of 18 years ; and those of danghters on marriage. XI. In exceptional cases pensions %ill be allowed to other female rile ives. XII. All applications for such pensions must be sub mitted in the usual manner through the local civil authr,rities. XIII. As regardstlie grant of relief to the military fund, the Goveinor-General in Council considers that it will be more advisable to undertake the annual payment of the pensions of those who have become entitled to them than to make over to the fund a sum equal to the present value of those pensions. XIV. With r-ference to erants of money to Europeans not in the service of the Government, his Lordship in Council considers that such grants should be given on the same principle as those allowed to the European and native officers of the G)vernment—that is to say, to those who have lost all, or nearly all their property, in consequence of the mutinies, and who have not the means of setting themselves up again either in business or otherwise. rauy's steamer Adjdaho, the by the fracture of her main days after she left Ceylon. The Suez for carrying forward the not yet known here, but the men on by the Adjdaha, to be tranehippi at len to A Alma, which it is expected will by that time have made good the damage she has sustained. lam this moment informed that the Adjdaha will not be able to carry for. ward the passenger by the Indus, and that they will probably have to be detained in Egypt till the next Business continues much depressed. Hitherto, how ever, the late failures in England and on the continent of Europe have produced no evil results further than causing general feelings of anxiety with a consequent restriction of credit. Our grain markets, in which there had been a rally, caused by the receipt of more favour. able intelligence from England by telegraph, via Con stantinople, is again dull since the receipt o f l a t er an d fuller advices. Supplies from the interior are, however, excessively light. Saide wheat may be quoted at from abort 26s to 30s per quarter free on board ; beans, 25e to 27s ; barley, 14s to 15s 6d. Cotton is neglected, with a downward tendency in prices. Exchanges are drooping, and none bu‘, first-class are readily negotiable; remitters generally giving the preference to shipments of specie, even though a sacri fice. Good paper on London, at three month's date, may be quoted at 1001 to 101 piasters in the it. Freights are dull. CHINA. (From the Overland Chinos Mail, Nou. 14.) The most important occurrence of the fortnight has been the arrival, on the sth, of Mr. Reed, the United States Minister, and suite. Beyond what is already known at home about the peaceful in tentions of the Americans with regard to China, nothing has transpired to give na an inkling of the peculiar policy to be pursued by their pleni potentiary. The representatives of the three Western Powers are now assembled on the field of their future operations ; two of them have large forces at their command, and are resolved to use them, and the foreign community are anxiously awaiting the result. The British naval force goes on increasing. The Imperatrice with 550 marines and 50 boys, arrived on the sth, and sailed for the river on the 7th ; the gunboats Watchful and Woodcock, in tow of the steamer Furious, arrived on the 4th ; the store steamer Hesper and floating factory Volcano on the 10th ; and gun-boats Janus and Clown, and dispatch-steamer Surprise on the 13th. The steamer Adelaide, which left Portsmouth on the 15th Aug., with the remainder of the Marines, is hourly looked for. There has been no alteration in the French force ; the American now consists of the steamers Minnesota and San Jacinto, 50 and 15 guns ; the sloops Levant and Portsmouth, 18 and 16 guns. The Mississippi, another fine steamer, is expected. The Americans will, never theless, greatly feel the want of small steamers suited to river navigation. There has been less done in the river, except perhaps in the way of preparation, since our last Overland, than for some time back during a like reriod. A note dated Nov. 4 informs us that Gen. Ashburnham and staff arrived per Coromandel in the upper part of the river on the morning of that day. He proceeded into Fatshan Creek and remained there some time, and afterwards, in company with several naval officers, visited the Stymour and Macao forts, remaining at the latter the greater part of the day. Our corre spondent adds, that Chuenpee fort, which was abandoned, is now being destroyed. Another note just received mentions nothing except that a Chinese baker, who had taken up his quarters off Sixty-six Point, had had his wife carried off, to gether with some money and a cargo of flour, by the mandarin. The wife, however, Lad been offered him back for a ransom of 200 dole. The following is the disposition of the ships :—Elk and Bittern at Sixty-six Point, Highflyer and Sampson at Hamilton Creek, and Acorn at Escape Creek ; the two troopships and Nankin at Wangtong Port, and Sybille at Tiger Island. All the vessels are to he in the river by the 26th, except the Sybille and Tribune which will remain at Hong Kong. XV. Similar grants will be made to thomil persons, ❑ot being Euripeans, who may he certified by any officer authorised by Government to give the certificate to have su , tained damage i❑ consequence of or while rendering active assistance to the Government. XVI. In no case should a grant under this head exceed 2,000 rupees, the maximum allowed to unwire natited officers, and the amount should be regulated according to the circumstances of each Oise. XVII. Applications for grants under this bead should he made to the local civil officer,, and submitted by them to the commissioners of divisions, atter such inquiry and wit's such re:narks as may be deemed necessary. The commissioners will submit a general statement of such claims for the final decision of the 1 )cal Government, XVIII. Pensions to the desti ute families of Euro peans : of in the servica of Government, killed in the mutinies will be granted on the same terms as to the famides of uncovenanted civil servants of the Govern ment, regard being had to the circumstances of life in each case, and special consideration being shown for the families of those who may have died in the temporary sot vies of the State. . In Hong Kong, everything wears the aspect of busy preparation, and it is confidently affirmed that the first step towards the investment of Can ton will be taken on Tuesday, upon *hich day the Calcutta, accompanied by the gunboats and steamers now here, will proceed up the river. The greater part of the small military force here will likely be required to assist in the attack upon Canton, and upon the naval force will principally devolve the protection of the colony. XIX. Free passages in Government and private steamers have been granted already to all women and children pr .ceeding from the stations up the country to Bengal. A similsr indulgence will be allowed to such persons returning to their homes, when the prohibition against residence in the disturbed distric's is removed. XX. This indulgence, however, will be restricted to passages on hoard Government steamers, or in private steamers taken up by the Government for the convey ance of store., on the understanding that it will not be allowed to interfere with the conveyance of troops or of persons proceeding up the country on the public service. CECIL BEADON, Secretary to the Government of India. • Various rumours reach us from Canton ; some say that Yeh has left the city to proceed against the rebels in the North of the province ; and others that he is about to go. The rebels are giv ing Yeh sad trouble. He has memorialised the Emperor, requesting that no more troops be draughted from Kwasgtung into the other pro vinces ; and troops have been sent from the Northern provinces in foreign vessels to Swato, whence they will probably be sent against the rebel , . Some think that these internal troubles will make the city yield to us without any fight ing ; hut we anticipate a short struggle and look anxiously beyond it to the state in which the pro vince will be when, much more than now, at the mercy of the rebels. It is still said that the French intend to assist the British force, but whether actively before Canton, or only in protecting Hong Kong, thereby enabling us to make the best of our force, is mat ter of doubt. At all events, no active movement has as yet been made by the French with refer ence to Cochin China ; and the greater portion of their fleet is still anchored at the Brothers, where Baron Le Gros also is. H. E. Sir M. Seymour has been promoted from the rank of Rear Admiral of the White to that of Rear-Admiral of the Red. The alteration in the flags was made yesterday, under salutes from the ships of war. The Russian war steamer America arrived from Shanghai to-day, having on board his Excellency Count Pontiatine, AtubassadorExtra.ordinary, who is reported to have failed in his attempted nego tiation at Peking. Her Majesty's steamer Hornet is also in from Ningpo, and the Spanish steamer Don J. Juan from Manila. The Neleus, with 180 military and naval inva lids o❑ board, left to-day for England. She was towed out of the harbour by H.M.S. Inflexible. We understand that General Ashburnham, with several of the heads of departments, will proceed to Calcutta in the Ava on the 18th inst. We have just received information of the wreck of the Dutch schooner Helene, Captain Hogins trouter, at Breaker's Point. Shortly after she got ashore she was attacked by pirates, and plundered of e verything. The crew arrived at Swatow, on the 11th, almost naked, add were there provided for on board the Twee Cornelissen. The loss of another vessel (the Portuguese ship Man Hon, from Hong-kong) on the coast of For mosa, and the plunder of the crew by the natives, will doubtless remind the Government of the necessity of making provision for such oases. The Chinese Government at present have certainly not the power to control the natives of Formosa, and we shall have to trust in a great measure to our selves. In the expected opening up of trade, that of Formosa is likely to meet with great attention, and an expedition to the island to put matters on a proper footing may be looked for. The state of affairs, too, at Swatow—a place where a consider able trade is done, but which, like the places on the coast of Formosa, is not a treaty port—is such, it will be seen, as requires some attention. From Amoy we have advices to the 9th No vember. The demand for imports was undimi nished. Patna was quoted 735 dols. ; Benares 725 dola. ; Java rice, 2 dols 60c. ; Arraoan, 2 dols. ; and Formosa 2 dots. 95c. Our latest advices from Fuhchau are to the 3d November. Very little had been done in teas, and the stock of congou unsold was 95,000 chests. A decline of two taels on finer qualities, four to five taels on medium, and three to four taels on com mon had taken place. Patna was quoted 790 of Benares, 770 ; and Malwa, 860.

Read an extract from the proceedings of this Govern ment in the Home Department, No. 2,321, dated the 9th inst., forwarding for consideration copy of a despatch from the Hon. Court, together with a memorandum by the Secretary in that department, on the subject of granting assistance to suffsrer in conse quence of the mutinies. Resolution.—The Hon. Court in their public despatch No. 118 0f1857, dated 26th of August, having expressed an anxious desire that every measure of succour within the power of the Government should be promptly afforded to the survivors of those whe suffered from the loss of relations and property during the recent distur bances, especially to the widows and orphans (4 civil and military officers who have fallen victims to the outbreak, the Right Hon. the Governor-General in Council considers that the different ways in which aid may be suitably afforded by the Government are as follows : 1. By grants of money to European and native, civil and military, officers of the Government, who have lost the whole or a large portion of their property by tho mutinies. 2. By pensions to the families of enc4venanted officers of the Government who have been killed in the mutinies, and have not left means either in property or in claims on any insurance or charitable fund. 3. By the grant of relief to the Bengal Military Fund to enable it to meet the liabilities thrown upon it in con sequence of the mutinies. 4. By grants of money to Europeans and others not in the service of the Government. 5. By pensions to the destitute families of Europeans killed in the mutinies. 6. By free passages on board Government steamers. 11. With regard to grants of money to Europeans and native officers of Government, his Lordship in Council is of opinion that the following principle should be ob• served : 1. That grants of military officers should be adjusted according to the scale allowed under the pay and audit regulation to officers of artillery and infantry, as com pensation for the loss of baggage and camp equipage when on duty in the field, via.:— To a Colonel R5.3,990 0 0 „ Lieutenant-Colonel ~ Major „ Captain 2 024 0 0 „ Subaltern „ Deputy and Assistant-Com missary 1,450 0 0 „ Conductors, Apothecaries, and Stewards „ Assistant Apothecaries and Stewards 606 14 1 To native officers one month's pay and full batta. 2. That grants to covenanted civil officers F bould be regulated in the same scale according t 3 their relative raok. 3. That grants to uncovenanted civil officers should be awarded according to the undermentioned scale : Rs. Rs. If on salaries of 500 a month or upwards 2,000 If on salaries of 250 a month or upwards 1,000 If on salaries of 100 a month or upwards 5OO If on salaries of 50 a month or upwards.., 2OO If on salaries of 25 a month or upwards..,,, 100 If on salaries in excess of 10r. a month.- 26 It being understood in every case, whatever the amount of the officer's salary, that nu dotati.,: l or pen sion shall be sanctioned until it be a 4 certainecl that the applicant (whether European, East Indian, or native) has in no way been concerned in the Mutinies. 111. In every case also a. declaration on honour should be required from the officer concerned, to the effect that he has lost property to the full value of the sum award able to him. IV. Claims to grants under this head should be pre. EGYPT. ALEXANDRIA, DEC. 23. The Bombay mails, which reached Suez by the Pekin on the ISth inst., were forwarded hence on the following day by the Peninsular and Oriental Company's steamer Euxine. This boat has been sent on to Marseilles to take up her station there, and will open the new line of communication with Ind;a, returning to Alexandria about the 10th proximo with the first iLtermediate mail fir Bomb iv. The - Abeona, with her Majesty's 94th Regiment, en route to India, has just come into port. All the necessary preparations for the transit of these troops have been made beforehand against their ex pec' ed ari ival. The men will be sent up by rail in two detachments, with an interval of one day be tween them. As you are aware, however, the ex tremity of the line still falls about 25 miles short of Suez, and for this portion of the journey about 900 le donrys have been provided by the Transit Admi nistration. The idea of ono of her Majesty's regi ments scouring across the Desert on these rather unusual chargers may be permitted to excite a smile, and will no doubt be productive of much jocularity among the men, but setting aside all ludicrous ideas that may suggest themselves to a European mind in connection with the matter, the choice of this means of conveyance is by no means an injudicious one, It would be most difficult, not to say to supply a sufficient number of vans and horses, and unless the men were marched, the only alternative would be to mount them on camels. The latter has, doubtless, a dignified and even a solemn demeanour, but in point of comfort as well as of speed no one who has travelled iu Egypt will hesitate in giving the preference to the smaller but more active and easy-paced animal. It has already been sufficiently shown that the transit through Egypt of a few hundred men at a time offers no serious difficulty of any nature what soever, and, indeed, hitherto little or no extra pre paration has been required. The only one of any importance is the organization at Suez of a military hospital, under the direction of a medical officersent to Egypt for this purpose by the British Government. The establishment has been abundantly provided with all descriptions of stores and provisions bed , ding, Sc., but people here are sorely puzzled to divine what useful service it is expected to render, It is by no means likely that the health of many of our sturdy soldiers will be affected by the fatigues of the journey through Egypt, which is annuallyo performed by hundreds of invalids returning Europe after a long residence in a debilitating r h t u a i r i m a t i e e l s y m Alexandria, they will, of course, not bo climate, and if any of the men arelanded sick subjectedat to the unnecessary fatigue of a jour. neych . to Suez. fo being rtunately The thing is no doubt a mistakoei however possesses the merit one. The Viceroy has latterly been chiefly at C a i ro . Ho was to leave yest erda y for U pper Egypt, but as it is not yet certain that Prince Napoleon will not fulfil his intention of visiting Egypt this winter, Said Pasha will not go far, and his absence will necessarily be a short one. Our consul had an interview with him at Cairo last week, and it has transpired that he has obtained authority from his Highness for the purchase of 1,000 cavalry horses, for account of the British Government for shipment to India. I must add in explanation that the ex portation of horses from Egypt has been prohibited for several years past, under the mistaken notion that such a measure would tend to maintain and to improve the breed in the country. Latterly, how ever, though the rule still exists, the Government has been less strict in enforcing it. The direction of the Transit Administration has just undergone a change. Mr. Green, who has been connected with the Transit since its first establishment, and who has been at the head of that important department for the past four years with the rank of ,Bey, has resigned his laborious post on account Of his health, and is succeeded by Nubor Bey, a gentleman possessed of a first-rate European education, and whose energy and abilities have obtained general approval to his appointment. It is Nubor Bey's brother who, it will be remem bered, was last year appointed by Said Pasha to the governorship of Khartoum, the first instance of a ON THE DISEASES OF WOMEN.

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. CALCUTTA, NOT, 23.—Our produce market has shown no great change during the last fortnight, although sup plies of the principal staples have been on the increase, great caution has been shown in operations since tne re ceipt of advices by the last mail. I❑ indig few private sales have taken place. In silk scarcely any transactions have taken piece. In sugar hardly anything has been done for Great Britain. The money market is improving gradually, and the last published report of the Bank of Bengal shows an increase of cash balance which may lead to an early re duction in rates. THE FALL OF LTJCKNOW. (From the Calcutta Englishman ) From private sources we learn that the loss in this very serious engagement has been small, and that of the enemy very great, being estimated at 7,000 mon. The Commander-in-Chief did not fol low the example of Generals Outram and Have lock, who endeavoured to force their way through the narrow streets of this large city, where every house is said to be loopholed an filled with armed men. This they only accomplished with a loss which totally crippled their small force, and reduced them to the condition of the garrison, having been ever since besieged in the Residency. Sir Colin Camp bell, as will be seen by the map, avoided the town, and by making a circuit through the suburbs has spared his troops nod accomplished his object, though it is believed that the force of rebels and mutineers assembled at Lucknow is so great that he will not be able to subdue or disperse them without considerable reinforcements. These are now fast pouring in, and every day is adding to the strength of the British troops in all the intermedi ate stations. It ought not to be omitted that Generals Outram and Havelock had no time for de liberation ; had they waited another day or two the garrison in Lucknow would have been destroyed. Although the Commander-in-Chiet's success is highly important, and will greatly discourage the insurgents, it mus t no t b e h ast il y conc l u d e that the work is done. The whole of Oude is in arms, and the adjoining district of Rohilcund is also dis affected and disturbed so that even if no large body should still contend for Lucknow, or concentrate themselves elsewhere, it will require a considerable time to put down all resistance, to punish marau ders and plunderers, and to restore obedience. THE ARREST OF THE RAJAH OF PACHET E. We hear that the Rajah of Machete has been ar rested under orders f rom th e governme nt of India, and is now a close prisoner at Rughoooa th pore, Where 5 comp an i es o f t h e Shekawattee battalion are encamp e d , they having come d o wn from Pooruha for the express purpose of carry i ng out th e or d ers o f government, as it was surmis- d that resistance might be offered. Instead of this, however, the Rajah, we are told, on hearing of the arrival of Mr. Lushington, the Commissioner of Burdwan, who was entrusted with carrying out the orders of Go vernment, went forward to meet him, evincing thereby a n ythi ng b u t h os tilit y t o th e constituted authorities. This ho did before the arrival of the troops, or before any ono knew of their coming. The pr ec i se nature of the charges against the Rajah has not transpired, though there can be no doubt that suspicion of some kind conuectod with the pre sent revolt rests upon him. On Sunday, the 15th inst., th e pa l ace of the Rajah was surroun d e d by the tr oops, when Mr. Lushington made a searching in vestigation of its contents. An inventory was made o f th ew, and after being duly sea l ed, they wore placed in charge of the local police. The Ra jah had, a s was currently reporte d an d as generally believed, a l arge b o d y o f arme d reta i ners, intend ing to employ them iu acting against the Govern ment; and the object of the seam!), so far as we can learn, was to ascertain the accuracy of this report, for had there been truth in it, there would doubt less have been discovered a large quantity of arms and ammunition, sufficiently large to equip an effi cient body of men. Nothing of the sort, however, was found except about 16 or 20 firelocks, a few spears and swords, and about 40 pounds of gun powder.—Calcutta Englishman, Nov. 13. THE HARBOUR IN CALCUTTA.
