The Chronique of the REVUE DES DEUX MONDES, which is one of the most characteristic features of that periodical, will supply the best example of what is intended, although no direct attempt at imitation will be made, and the CHRONICLE in FRASER'S MAGAZINE will necessarily be shorter and more immediately adapted to the wants of English readers.

" The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers from this distressing malady by translating thi s littl e b oo k, and by laying bar e the scandalous practices of unqualified adventurers, who profess to cure a disease of which they know nothing, with no other object than to fill their own purses. The difference between true Spermatorrhcea and the various forms of disease which resemble it are accurately de scribed, and thus a safe guide is offered for the treatment of the malady."—Medical Circular. " We have dilated so long upon the contents of the preli minary chapter, that we have scarcely left ourselves space for any notice of the subject specially treated of by Dr. Pickford ; but the moderate price at which the 'brochure' is sold, places it within the reach of every one interested in the matter."— Dublin Medical Press.

For the information of alarmists, I subjoin an ex tract from an up-country paper:— " A proceeding something similar to the circu lation of the mysterious chupatties from village to village, though less extensive, has been discovered to have taken place in this (Delhi) and the neigh bouring districts. It seems that a yharra or earthen' pot was sent round from village to village in which all or one of the community were to drop something, a stone or a piece of money, and then pass it on. It has been traced to the neighbour hood of Jhansee ; but, where it originated or when, or what its object is at present, is we believe in volved in mystery. Investigation is, however, being made, and we shall doubtless be informed when anything certain has been elicited. This strange proceeding continues up to the time of writing as mysterious as the chupattie business,the meaning of which has never yet been discovered. The Government has published a notification to the effect that £12,000,000 sterling worth of stores for all the public departments arc new in hand, making a far larger total than was held before the mutiny, notwithstanding the losses that then oc curred. The public attention of all officers is seriously, called to this subject with a view to economy in future. " The money-market is very easy." SHIPS or WAR.

HONGKONG, APRIL 25. The steamer Singapore, with the English mail of March 10, arrived on the 22d instant, somewhat unexpectedly, and the outward mails will be de spatched tomorrow at 2 p.m. per steamer Cadiz. The earlier departure is caused by the change of monsoon,—that from the south-west having now set in. Favourable winds are now fast bringing in nu merous transports and men-of-war, both from Eu rope and India. The French force is rapidly in creasing, several heavy ships, with about 3,000 troops on board, having arrived between mails. The public is still in ignorance of the precise terms of the Chinese reply to the ultimatum of the Allied Ministers, except from Chinese sources ; but the nature is well known to be hostile. It is re ported now from Shanghai that the ultimatum had again been sent to the Chinese authorities, but un accompanied by the demand for indemnity which it was understood was to have formed a part of any further communication after a first refusal of the - terms offered. Should such be the fact, its effect will probably be to embolden the Chinese Government to persevere in its present rash course. In the event of hostilities, it is understood that no blockade will be enforce d to the southward of the Gulf of Pecheli. The rebels in the neighbourhood of Canton still prove their presence by causing great injury to trade. The difficulties thrown in the way of all transit by them is stated to be a principal cause of the extreme dearness of tea in the province. To prevent any further advance in prices of that ne cessary of life the Governor-General lately took the high-handed course of putting all the principal dealers in prison. For a few days rates in conse quence declined ; but they are again advancing. Very unpleasant news has reached us from Japan, but details are not yet known. A serious conflict had taken place at Jeddo between the followers of one of the great princes and those of the Regent, the latter having been attacked and several of them slain by the former. The Regent himself was stabbed, but whether fatally or not was not known. Foreigners were in much alarm, and with good reason, although the Governor of Jeddo was adopt ing precautions for their safety ; for the insurgent chief is very powerful, and bitterly opposed to the concessions in favour of foreigners granted by the late treaty. The tw - o French Generals of Brigade have ar rived, so that the Staff of Generals of both nations is now complete. COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. THE CALCUTTA MARKET. FRIDAY, May 4. On the 27th ult. a telegram from Bombay put us in pos session of London news of the 3d tilt., and on the same night a telegram from Aden brought us further intelligence of the 10th nit. On the '27th ult. the msil steamer Nemesis ar rived with letters and papers of the 26th of March, and yes terday morning the Bombay express arrived with letters and papers of the 3d ult. The I'roduce-market.—The fortnight under revim has again been characterised by dulness. There has been no animation in any article of export, and we believe that unless there be a general decline business will continue in the present unsatisfactory state. Our buyers are all wait ing for the rivers to open, and produce to come down more freely than heretofore, believing that thereupon prices must. decline. But from past experience we fear they will be dis appointed. Import-market.—A perfect stagnation has prevailed in our market throughout the last fortnight for all kinds of importations. piece goods have been in very limited demand, both in our market, as also in all the up- country markets ; prices have already declined to a certain extent, as is shown from our quotations, and there is little or no hope of a speedy improvement. The imports have been extensive, adding thus a considerable amount of goods to the stock of our market. Yarns have been in a very limited request at easier rates. Metals have been dull, and there is little or nothing doing, quotations for copper sheathing 45 to 45-4 per maund. Government Securities—The advices of lower prices in London for Indian securities have had the effect of limiting business here, and to some extent depressing prices ; rates have not, however, gone low enough to bring buyers on European account into the market, and the transactions re ported are for local account. The 51 per cents. are quoted 103-12, the 5 per cent. at 93 8, and the 4 per cent. at 84. Money Market—Money continues easy with the banks, but in the Bazaar there is a little more demand among the piece good dealers, whose remittances do not come forward readily. It is hoped that this difficulty will soon be re moved ; in the meantime the bank of Bengal has a large amount of money unemployed. Exchange— Since the departure of the last mail the rates for bills on London has been very steady, with a moderate demaild. Freights—We have not had many arrivals, and freights in consequence remain at almost the same rates as reported (on the 22d ult.) last mail. Supplies to the Mauritius con tinue to be shipped largely and stores to China, and besides shipments to America we do not observe others on a large scale. Since writing the above we have news from China. We learn that rice has gone up there to 3 dols 50c per picul; and we may therefore expect some improvement in that direction. (From the Bombay Times and Standard.) BOMBAY, FRIDAY EVENING, MAY 11. There is little of an encouraging nature to report respect int, our import market during th e l as t f or t n i g ht, it s genera l features being marked by the same languor of demand, and in some cases declining tendency of prices, which we have lately had to notice. The transactions in nearly all kinds of goods have been very limited, and the near approach of the monsoon now leaves little hope for early improvement in the inquiry. For exports the demand is dull, in consequence of prices of our chief staples being maintained at rates above what most European houses are inclined to pay. We have no change to notice in the rates of discount, which are 7 per cent. for short-dated private bills, and 6 per cent. for cash credits on the security of Government paper, on which easy terms money is readily obtainable. The market for Government securities continued steady until the last few days, when more disposition to sell be came apparent, and a trifling decline ensued. We now quote Fours at 84t, Fives at 97i to 98, and Five-and-a Half at 1031 to 104 per cent., with little doing. The demand for cotton piece goods continues very limited, and few of the staple gray cloths are realizing equal rates to those of a fortnight ago. This may be attributed partly to the nearly approaching close of our active season, and the general want of inquiry for up-country orders. The Mar evarries in particular have all theirs cancelled in conse quence of disputes in their native province between the ryots and the rajahs. The export market is very dull. In consequence of the receipt of very unfavourable news by telegraph from Eng land regarding cotton, said to be of the 22d ult., European houses are not prepared to buy at the current prices, which are considerably beyond those quoted at home. The dealers, however, for the present maintain their rates, aided by the demand that exists for China, notwithstanding the warlike news to hand by the last steamer. In exchange on London first-class bills were sold at 2s. 1 1-16 d. just before the last mail left, and then a further rise of 1-16 d. occurred. The pacity of draughts brought by the China steamer then enabled holders to Bank, 8. obau; per rupee. We now quote 2 s. Old. for for credit, and 2s. 1 1-16 d. for document bills. 9 Sight bills 9 on Calcutta are worth 100 1 , on Madras per cent. On China the market is firmer or 225 r. p er 100 dols. at 60 days' sight. HONG KONG, APRIL 25. Since last addressing you there has been no improvement in the market for imports, which continue very inactive. The rebels still retain possession of the passes to the con suming districts around Canton. Sales during the fort night at Hongkong and Canton are as follows, the quota tions being those at the latter place, duty paid, cash two months :-- Cotton—Bombay : 4,750 bales sold ; stock, 16,000 bales ; good to fine, taels 9 4to 10 taels ; medium to good, taels 8 1 to taels 8 9; common, taels 7 2to taels 7 G. Madras—Sales 100 bales; stock, 1,200 bales. Cot ton yarn—higher numbers have declined 1 dol. Canton silk—No business done, and quotations are 30 dols lower. Tea—Settlements have been very trifling, and confined to gunpowder and scented kinds. No transactions have taken place in congou, the stock of which is five chops. The new Tay shan teas have not yet come to market, the dispute about the inland duties being still unsettled. Sales during the fortnight are—Scented orange pekoe, 2,000 boxes at 18 24 taels for low to medium mixed leaf; scented caper, 1,500 boxes, at 14 to 16 taels, low mixed leaf; gunpowder, 2,000 boxes, at 11 to 13 taels, mixed spurious leaf. One vessel has sailed for London, and two ate on the berth, one for general cargo. For the United States no vessel has left. Freights to London, £3. Exchange on London—Rates remain as last quoted. The latest dates received are, from Loudon to the 10th of COURT OF SETTERS. The Commissioners of Sewers for the City of London held a meeting yesterday at Guildhall. Deputy Christie presided. Dr. LETHEBY, the medical officer, made a report to the Court to the effect that he had examined 311 houses, and reported upon their condition. He also submitted a list of 110 plaees that required sana tory improvement, and of 34 courts and alleys that would require to be cleansed and flushed during the expected hot weather. The monthly return of deaths was below the average of the season, and. showed a satisfactory state of the health of the city of London. During the last fortnight there had been 76 deaths in the city, the average for the corresponding period during the last four years being 81. There were only 25 deaths among chil dren of less than five years of age, and 20 of persons over 60.. The principal causes of death were diseases of a chronic character. There were 20 deaths from affections of the respiratory organs, 5 from consumption, 5 from pneumonia, and 10 from bronchitis. Of deaths from the zymotic class of diseases there were 12—namely, 3 from fever, 3' from small pox, 2 from whooping-cough, 1 from measles, and 1 from dysentery: 97 births were registered during the fortnight—namely, 54 boys and 43 girls. The Improvements Committee reported that they had retained the Recorder and Common Sergeant. to oppose the Metropolis Local Management Bill before a committee of the Houso of Commons. The contract for cleansing the city for a period of three years was let to Messrs. Mowlem and Co., at a price 26 per cent. less than the standard scale of prices approved by the Surveyor to the Com missioners. After some routine business the Court ad journed. BEALTH OF LONDON DURING THE WEEK. (From the Registrar-General's Report.) For the week that ended on Saturday the Lon don returns of deaths exhibit a considerable de crease. The weekly number, which was about 1,200 at the beginning of May, and afterwards 1,100, was at the end of the month 1,004. For the ten years 1850-9 the average number of deaths, in the weeks corresponding with last week, is, with a correction for increase of population, found to be 1,088. The mortality of last week was therefore less by 84 deaths than the average rate as obtained for the end of May would ha,ve produced. The births of last week exceeded the deaths in the same time by 513. The deaths referred to zymotic diseases were 224, the corrected average being 259. There were 17 from small-pox, 5 of which occured in the Small pox Hospital. Measles, which has lately shown au increase, was fatal in 51 cases; but this number is not greater than that of the previous week. Five occurred in Islington, 5 in Stepney, 4 in nother hit he, 5 in the two sub•districts of Lambeth Church. There were 27 deaths from scarlatina, and 7 from diphtheria. Three persons died by murder, 2 of whom were infants; 3 children by suffocation, 2 of these in the bed-clothes. Six children received fatal injury from being burnt ; the daughter of a spectacle maker, aged 4 years, by her bed-gown taking fire; the daughter of a porter, aged 4 months, by the bed-clotnes taking fire; and two children of la bourers, aged respectively 3 and 4 years, by their clothes taking fire from lucifer matches. Two other children were burnt by means not stated in the registers. A boy aged 3 years died in two hours from drinking about four ounces of rum and gin. A girl aged 4 months died from erysipelas after vaccination. Last week the births of 766 boys and 751 girls, in all 1,517 children, were registered in London. In the ten corresponding weeks of the years 1850-59 the average number was 1,809. At the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, the mean height of the barometer in the week was 29.578 in. The barometer fell from 28.89 in. on Tuesday, the highest reading in the week, to 28.97 in. on Satur day, the lowest in the week. The thermometer in the shade fell to its lowest point on Tuesday, 38.8 deg., and it rose to its highest, 66.3 deg. onFriday. The range of temperature in the week was there fore 27.5 deg. The mean daily range was 17.1 deg. The mean temperature of the air in the week was 51.3 deg., which is 4.5 deg. below the average of the same week in 43 years (as determined by Mr. Glaisher). The mean daily temperature was below the average on every day. On Friday the thermometer in the sun rose to 110 deg., the highest point attained in the week. The mean tem perature of the water of the Thames was 58.3 deg. The difference between the mean dew-point tem perature and air temperature was 7.3 deg., show ing the dryness of the air. The mean degree of humidity was 78, complete saturation beibeingrepre sented by 100. On three days the humidity was only 66 ; on Thursday and Saturday it was 99. The wind was variable, chiefly north-west at the beginning of the week, south-west at the end. Rain fell to the amount of 1.53 in., the greater part of it on Thursday and Saturday. A strong gale blew on Monday, during which, between noon and one p.m., the pressure of the wind rose to 231bs. on the square foot. Several trees were blown down in Greenwich Park. Saturday is described as "an ex traordinary day for the season." Rain fell con stantly from eight a.m., with the exception of an hour in the afternoon. A heavy gale commenced at half-past nine a.m. and continued throughout the day, with pressures for the most part between 101 b. and 151 b., and in one instance reaching 231 b. on the square foot. Large branches of trees covered the park. ; total in quantity lBsB, 1589 G o 4 f ; the Government for the use of the coals purchased by COALS FO .n R Royal Navy i din 1859, 249, 527 tone.

VOLUNTEER SERVICE CLUB. —The committee of this club have taken the mansion known. as " Crockford's" an d the adjoining house, vacated by the Guards' Club. Arrangements are in force to surrender the whole of this beautiful pile to such purpose. The entrance in the centre of its facade in St. James's -street is to be reopened, and a handsome portico erected at its approach. The club, for extent and social position, will equal any in London, while none can surpass it in its interior attractions. All officers in the volunteer service, &c., whether followers of commer cial pursuits o r otherwise, are eligible for the ballot ; and all non - commission e d officers and privates not in trade equally so. '1 he annual payment of six guineas for town and three guineas for country members does not entail any entrance fee, or any other liability whatever. Mr. De Carteret, the secretary, to whose courtesy we are indebted for these facts, and through whose personal exertions this club derives its being, will, we feel assured, extend a similar attention to all those who apply to him for additional par ticulars. CIVI r, SERVICE VOLUNTEER RIFLE CORPS.— Yesterri , iy (.voning the members of the Civil Service Volun teer Itiihr Corps, Lieutenant-Colonel Lord Bury, M.P., mustered in strong numbers at their head-quarters, and, preceded by their .band, marched along the Strand and Fleet-street to the pier at Blackfriars-bridge, and at half past five o'clock, amid a pelting shower of hail, rain, and sleet, embarked on board the Woolwich Company's steam packet Fairy, which conveyed them to Greenwich, the corps marching thence to Blackheath, and, notwithstanding heavy rain fell at intervals, they remained on the ground nearly two hours, going through the different field evolu tions. The whole of the manoeuvres were performed with steadiness, rapidity, and precision. The corps did not reach the metropolis on their return until late in the evening. There will be another field day in Hyde Park on Saturday next, with the 2d Brigade of Middlesez Rifle Volunteers. THE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING, JUNE 6, 1860.

We (Times) have received our private correspon dence and file of papers from Calcutta to the 4th of May, from Bombay to the 12th of May, and from Hongkong to the 25th of April. tee. Its labours will not be light ; but if it can successfully contend with false swearing and vil lany of every description, it will effect great per manent good, and take away a a reproach from the country. Meanwhile, in the majority of districts, the seed has been sown, and it is calculated that, with a favourable season, the yearly outturn will not fall very short of preceding years. The year 1861 will, I fear, tell a different tale. "There has been a trifling uneasiness in the North-west, in consequence of rumours regarding a contemplated movement among a portion of the native troops, and the bazaar has been inundated with accounts of fabulous slaughters. The real fact is, that the European garrisons in the several stations have been kept on the alert ; in Agra the drawbridges have been raised at night, and other precautions have been taken. It is the season for prophesying, and there have net been wanting fakirs and other holy men to foretell our speedy expulsion. The authorities, there fore, have deemed it right to show that they were not in the condition of careless security in which they were surprised in 1857. Hence the precautions, and thence, probably, the alarm among native speculators. With reference to this subject, I may once and for all remark that we are in possession of every fortified place in the country, and that we have disarmed the population ; in 1857 the natives held most of the fortified places, and the population were armed. A glance at the difference of the two positions is sufficient to assure the most timid, and to point out the certain overthrow that must follow any attempt of the natives to combine against us, Our Five per Cents. are rapidly approaching par. The follcwing is the latest quotation :—Five and-a•-Half per Cents., 103, 12; Five per Cents., 97 ; Four per Cents., 84. " MAY 4. " Since I despatched my letter of yesterday's date by the Bombay route we have had time to digest the intelligence brought from England by the mail of the 3fil of April. As that intelligence referred very much to Indian matters, I may be excused for alluding to it here; more especially as at least two of the topics discussed are inseparably connected with the prosperity of Anglo-Indians and the wel fare of the country. The first of these is Lord El lenborough's speech on Mr. Wilson's project. It is to be regretted that his lordship had not deferred his criticisms until he had obtained a more accurate knowledge of the proposed scheme ; for, had he done so, he would probably have refrained from condemn ing a measure Which, up to the publication of Sir C. Trevelyan's Minute, had been universally ac cepted by the people of India. His lordship re marked that the only true foundation for the admi nistration of the finances of India was to be found in the thorough reconciliation between the Govern ment and the people. I think it will be admitted that all Mr. Wilson's measures have been directed to this great object. In one of the first speeches he made on his arrival he announced this to be his great principle—to • effect, if possible, a thorough reconciliation among all classcis. It was with a view to this end that, seeing the necessity of new taxation, he determined to neutralise the effect which an announcement of that nature would have by taking the people in his confidence. This he did in the boldest and most comprehensive man ner. He showed them the deficit; he pointed out that retrenchment had reached its limit, and he then propounded a scheme under which the labourer was altogether exempted, and which fell on the ether classes in a fair proportion. And this is cer tain—this I can state to you most positively—that, from Lahore downwards, all the large towns, all the principal districts, accepted the measure. In. Oude the classification had been made, the machi nery organised, and the zemindars and others had admitted the justice of the scheme. Equally satis factory accounts were sent in from other quarters. The measure, as being palpably founded on justice, had conduced more than all the proclamations to bring about the reconciliation of races. There never had been a more striking exemplification of a remark once made in the House of Commons—that "justice is truth in action." The scheme was of a nature which the native mind could take in and appreciate. If in Bengal, among the zemindars and those who considered that the permanent settle ment absolved them from all duties toward the State, there has been a different opinion, it was not one which would have proceeded beyond the point of a protest in the Bengaloe newspapers but for that mischievous minute from Madras. It is that which has given life to the opposition, and which has shaken even in the North-west, by an implication of divided counsels at home, the feeling of confidence which Mr. Wilson's policy had fostered. There re mains but one way n'w of meeting the difficulty, if it is to be met, and that is by showing in an un mistakeable manner that Mr. Wilson possesses the thorough confidence of the Home Government. If the difficulty is to be merely evaded it may be in quired why Mr. Wilson was sent out here. We have surely had enough of amateur finance-mongering. We have now for the first time among us a Minister who has propounded a fair and equable scheme, which secured for itself by its intrinsic justice general support, and which, for the first time for years, will place our finances on a proper basis. Let those who attack this scheme, and who would sup port Sir C. Trevelyan, ask themselves how else the expenditure is to be met. Whence are we to obtain funds to meet the deficiency of six and a-half mil lions ? By loans:? Let those who would support that spendthrift system listen to the declaration made by Mr. Wilson in the Legislative Council on the 28th of April. I may add,' he said, ' that the last funded loan of the Government has been closed to day, and that the Government have now no open loans of any description whatever.' Why, we seem to be approaching an era which six months ago would have been pronounced an age of gold. Our Five per Cents. are almost at par, and confidence is everywhere restored. The yearly deficit is almost the only thing which remains to remind us of the mutinies. Mr. Wilson has supplied us with a safe, fair, and easy means of getting rid of that. Coun tries, like individuals, all have their opportunity. This is ours. If the Government do but give a full, hearty, and ungrudging support to this scheme, the future of India is brighter in prospect than it has ever been ; if that support be refused she will sink with all her weight deeper and lower than ever into the Slough of Despond. " A telegram reached Calcutta yesterday from Madras to the effect that Sir C. Trevelyan had sent home his resignation by the last mail. No one here credits the story, though it is considered not impos sible that he may have threatened to give up his office unless supported at home. " The other topic is one interesting to the large body of officers belonging to what was, and what may still be called, the Indian army. It cannot be denied that the impression produced by the debate on Colonel Sykes' motion is that the Ministry will eventually decide against a local army. This is an idea which, although expected, has not the less pro duced consternation and dismay. Bound by every association, by a service extending over the best years of their lives, to India, the majority of the officers feel that in being handed over to the Horse Guards, or even in being amalgamated with the Royal army, they will be virtually sacrificed. Eminently fitted for Indian warfare, the older offi cers especially would feel themselves in a new and strange position in other parts of the world. There is a strong feeling of alarm also lest all the privi leges which were guaranteed to them in 1858 should not be preserved intact after their amalgamation with a service which stands on a different footing. This feeling of apprehension is aggravated by the conviction pervading almost the entire Indian ser vice that amalgamation is utterly opposed to true policy ; that one army, constantly moving, with officers strange to the habits, feelings, and customs of the natives, would n ever o bt a i n the same confi dence which those who made India the residence of their lives would have a right to expect. It is ins possible to deny that in general the natives have an intense dread of a newly arrived regiment. It takes even years for officers and men to acquaint them selves with the habits of the people, and our coun trymen too often exercise the privilege of deriding that which is new and incomprehensible in a man ner that does not recommend them to the affection of the natives. A local army would be free from this evil, at all events, as the system of each regiment is such as to repress in the new arrivals any tendency to exasperate our native fellow-subjects. On both grounds, therefore, public and private, the Indian officers look forward to the decision of Government with an anxiety mingled with no little apprehen sion. Our North-Eastern frontier is again quiet ; a few companies of the Sylhet Light Infantry having restored order. From the Punjab we learn that the force under General Chamberlain had assembled at Tauk at the foot of the hills occupied by th e Mushoods on the 14th of April, and had entered those hills on the 16th. It consisted of 250 cavalry, 4,500 infantry, and 17 guns. It marched two days on Kotee Shunger, the stronghold of the Mushoods. These, however, had not the courage to defend it, but evacuated it after some slight skirmishing on the approach of our troops. A further advance was looked for every hour, it being the intention of the General to inflict condign punishment on these REDUCTION OF TEN POUNDS PER TON In the price of T HOR LEY' S FOOD FOR CATTLE On and after the lit of April. 1860. -1- Barrels otg 448 Feeds, wg nett 1121b5., with measure, 40s each Cases „ 448 Feeds„, 1121b5., in Packets, 45s each Carriage paid to any railway station in the kingdom, Nutritives value .. £l5 Condimental value .. it . 125 Total .. • .. £l4O per ton. showing•a profit of £lOO per ton through the use of this in valuable compound, adapted for the seasoning of all kinds of food for animals.

" I have enjoyed during the past 10 days addi tional means of making myself acquainted with the effect on the native mind of the untoward publica tion of Sir Charles Trevelyan's minute. Prior to that publication Sir Robert Montgomery, the Lieutenant-Governor of the Punjab, Mr. Edmon stone and Mr. Wingfield, the rulers of the North- West Provinces and Oude, had reported to Govern ment that the natives in their respective satrapies were prepared to accept the measure. Their re ports subsequent to the publication have been by no means so satisfactory. While even now they apprehend no real difficulty, they have ascertained that the language itsed by Sir C. Trevelyan has unsettled the minds of many who were previously resigned. It has produced a strong impression on the natives generally that they may yet escape taxation altogether. They cannot believe that Sir Charles would have dared not only to write but to publish his dissent to Mr. Wilson's measures, unless he had been sure of strong support from the English Ministry. The confident tone assumed by the Madras newspapers, especially by those who have the credit of being inspired from Government house, has confirmed this scepticism. They wel come, therefore, the idea that the Home Govern ment is divided in its Indian policy ; that, if a portion of the Ministry is prepared to support Mr. Wilson, another and a stronger section will back up the Governor of Madrus. He must, they say, be certain of carrying through his policy; and, as that policy is confined to the defeat of Mr. Wilson's schemes, they do not conceal their wish for its success. I have said that these hopes are sustained by the language used by the Madras press. I might also add that they are confirmed likewise by the language and bearing of the author of the mischief; for Sir Charles loses no opportu nity of boasting the great feat he has aceomplished in preventing the success of the new measures. In public and in private he never ceases to congratu late himself upon this manoeuvre, and he considers himself on that account especially entitled to the gratitude of the country. This confident bearing tends more than anything else to fan the hopes of the disaffected, and to induce a belief among the entire community that they may yet escape a sacri fice to which they had previously schooled them selves to submit. Under these circumstances every thing depends upon the prompt decision and rapid action of the Home Government. It is impossible that this country can be subject to two masters ; nor, if the English Government were simply to affirm Mr. Wilson's views, would it be practicable for Sir C. Trevelyan to carry into execution mea sures which, in his opinion, would produce wide spread discontent, if no t re b e lli on . I n d ee d, itis not to be supposed that he would consent to take a part obviously unsuited to one who holds such strong opinions on the subject. Were he, notwithstanding that the support of the Ministry were accorded to Mr. Wilson, to rema i n at M a d ras, t h e id ea of divided councils would not be wholly eradicated from the native mind. It is not easy to see how the collec tions could be made in the Madras Presidency, while from other parts of India every eye would be turned thither to watch the least sign of the con vulsion which had been foretold by its ruler. On the other hand, lam confident—and my opinion is shared by every thinking man in Calcutta—that a prompt and hearty support of Mr. Wilson, evinced in a manner likely to strike the imagination, would silence every murmur and cause his bill to be ac cepted without hesitation. The crisis is so impor tant, the chance of introducing a fair measure of taxation, the only one that can operate equally on the mercantile community, so dependent on the line the Home Go vernment may ta k e, t h at great anxiety is felt as to the course they may adopt. Whatever it be, it is hoped that it may be prompt and decided —p rompt b ecause the delay of each day increases the difficulties in the way of the Govern ment, and d ec id e d , b ecause a middle course must bring administration to a dead lock. The feeling of the mercantile community here has been strongly pronounced in the matter ; no class will suffer to a greater extent from the proposed taxation. Their prepossessions were all in favour of Sir C. Treve lyan, and yet they support Mr. Wilson to a man. ' I do not want to be taxed,' remarked one of them to me this very morning, and I would support Sir C. Trev e ly an i f his plan were feasible, but it is a chimfcra—it is no plan—it is simply an objection to taxation of any sort. The expenditure of the country must be p rov id ed for, and therefore I sup port Wilson.' Thi s is a type of the prevalent feel ing of all classes of Europeans in this city. "No alteration has occurred in the programme of Lord Canning's movements. He will leave Simla on or about the 7th, and will reach Calcutta about the 20th of the month. Lord Clyde will fol low a few day s l ater, and will leave 'Calcutta for En England the first week in June. Sir Hugh Rose will, in all probability, come round at once from Bombay to assume the command of the army in his room. General Mansfield has already been ga zetted to succeed Sir Hugh at Bombay, where he has been commanding in virtue of his seniority. " Accounts from the indigo districts are by no means so favourable as w h en I last wrote. On more than one occasion the ryots have assau lt e d th e c i v il power, and it is a significant f act that they have shown a bad feeling not so mu c h aga i nst the mere indigo planter as against the Europeans generally. It has been remarked, too, th at in those districts nearer the metropolis the ryots have acted upon a policy hitherto unknown. Although in many cases they have professed themselve s sat i s fi e d w i th the decision of the magistrate, that f unc ti onary h as no sooner turned his back than a deputation from the ryots has proceeded to C a l cutta to take orders on the subject of his co mmunication from a na ti ve junta, which has i constituted itself i n permanence. This junta, which s composed of wea l t h y B engalees or their agents, desires nothing l ess th an t h e expul sion of the indigo planter f rom Lower Bengal. It is with this view, I believe, that the ryots, whose prospects were never better than they are at this moment, have been co nstantly stirred u p, supp li e d with money, and incited to under go anyt hi ng rather than sow indigo. In spite of th ese e ff orts, order has been preserved in districts which possessed a magis trate of firm and decided character, but in others which have not been so fortunate—and there are more than one of these—disorder still reigns ram pant. To such an extent has this proceeded that the Lieutenant-Governor of Bengal has determined no longer to delay the appointment of a committee whi h shall possess . lull powers t o s if t t h e ques tion to its foundation. The indi go i nterest has looked with much anxiety to the manner in which this committee would be constituted, especially to the names of the members of whom it would be composed. These points; have been settled by the Lieutenant-Governor in a way which w ill g ive satisfaction to every one, evinces on and which his part an earnest desire to arrive at the truth. It will not be a mere comm i ttee o f members of the civil service, but it w ill con t a i n representatives of every interest. Th o p res id en t, Mr. Seton Karr, is known as one of the ablest civilians in Bengal, as a really p rac ti ca l man , thoroughly acquainted with the i n di go sys t em . Mr. Temple, one of Sir John Lawrence's civilians, lately taken from the Punjaub by M r . Wil son , is the other representative of the civil service. A planter, as representative of the indigo interest, a missionary, on behalf of the ryots, and a native magistrate, complete the formation of the commit- eh nd nd nd 2d
