Three companies occupied the town of Kangra, one the Fort of Mulkera, and the remainder were in the- camp at ti: foot --of the hill. They had pretty hard work „of it, being -constantly on' the alert and • unable• to cook, or even to take off their.accontreMents, the weather at the same time getting rather warm, being from 92 to 96. in tents, and higher in the Mtn, the feeling of heat being conSiderably dirninished, however, by the 'cool and re-. freshing aspect, some ten or twelve miles oft; in a north-. easterly direction, of a snowyrange; the snow was, however, disappearing fast. No information - can be obtained of the intentions of the garrison, as no one would venture into the place for love or money. Its appearance is said to be won derfully strong, but not at all calculated to stand the attack of the mortars now on their way. The garrison are reported to have a lakh of rupees in their charge, which they are much more 'likely to fall upon themselves than to allow the be siegers to have, and the guns are now stated to be not more than seven or eight in number, and none of them large, the largest shot picked up not exceeding four and a half poends. The valley between the fort and the snowy range above mentioned is highly cultivated.

Brigadier Wheeler was ac cordingly directed to issue the necessary orders, and the 2d Grenadiers marched from Jnllindutosuthe.2sll of April, the 11th Native Infantry at Jullindur, and 4th Irregular Cavalry' at Hoosheearpoor, being directed at the same time to prepare for the march. A battery of mortars, with a light field battery, was ordered to be got ready at Phulloor, where the reserve of the Artillery are stationed, and the whole were to march under escort of a wing of the G3d as soon as ready, under the personal command of Brigadier Wheeler, Major Lawrence, Lieutenant Edwards, and Mr. John Lawrence, the commissioner of the Trans-Sutlej country, accompanying the force. The general impres sion at Jullindur, was that there would not be much resistance, after the first shell bursts in the fort, al though the garrison are understood to consist chiefly of Akalees, and the authorities seemed to entertain the same idea, as they have resolved on provisioning the de tachment to a very small extent. Major Mayne, com mandant of the 10th Irregular Cavalry, had reached Jullin dur without a single desertion in his corps, and was to proceed on the 29th of April to Moheerian, about thirty miles beyond Hoosheearpoor, and close on the banks of the Beas. We understand his corps has elicited admiration from all who saw it on its progress. The weather is on all hands still repre. sented as very delightful, and had been considerably reduced in temperature by a thunder-storm on the 21st of April, followed by a heavy shower of rain. In fact, should the climate prove in other seasons as favourable as this, we shall find the stations in the new Doab amongst the most coveted by the Bengal army, notwithstanding the grumbling there has been, and which is to be attributed to temporary causes."

We have se cured from the ill-gotten hoards of Runjeet.Singh an indem nity adequate to cover the expenses of the war. We have greatly improved the strength of our frontier, acquired a territory which yields of free revenue nearly three times the amount of the total returns from Sinde, which are swallowed up.tive-fold by our expenses on the Indus; and finally the dilate of our new acquisition is such that the troops may be pushed forward during the heats from the more southerly cantonments for the improvement of their health and increase of their comfort. To the people of India we could have given no more irrefragable proof of our power or magnanimity and forbearance than that which we have supplied. There is perfect tranquillity and general good health amongst the troops along the ludus, and all look forward to the diminution of the cost of maintaining the country, which, after all, must remain excessive, to the extinction of a separate and independent government far its maintenance. Cholera has been very prevalent and very fatal here of late. One regiment, 22d Native Infantry, has lost on its march one-fourth of its men.

Here in Calcutta there is Tittle stirring except wind and fire. The former has been blowing very strongly, but quietly of late; and the latter has been sweeping off a goodly num ber of huts in various parts of the town. On the Gth there were fires in three or four different places ; and one of them, described in eight lines of one of the papers, is said to have destroyed above eleven hundred houses! There was another great conflagration yesterday, which destroyed a vast num ber of native tenements, and one or two liVes. The weather continues very hot and dry, not a showe r having fallen here, and very litte rain in the indigo districts— bad prospects for the planters. A few days ago Baboo ]Nutty Lall Leul proposed to the Dhurma Subha, a Society of Orthodox Hindoos, to petition Government for some enactment in favour of the re-marriage of Hindoo widows. It appears that his proposal caused a great stir in the meeting, and was loudly exclaimed against, which is not to be wondered at, when it is remembered that the society was originally established to oppose the abolition of Suitte. You may not have heard that' this same Afutty Lall, some time ago, offered a premium. of 10,000 rupees to any Hindoo who would marry a widow. The prize has never been claimed. The wet dock committee, appointed some two or three years ago, has at length laid its report before Government. It recommends the construction of docks a little below the fort. Of course we shall soon hear of a joint-stock company being formed in England for carrying out this or some similar plan. There has, it is said, been an attempt at a counter-revolu- tion in Burmab, for the purpose of restoring Tharawaddie to the throne. The friends of the ex-King, however, appear to have lost heart when the time for action arrived. The new Government is still well spoken of—at all events by the Moulmein newspaper. We have heard something of some disturbances in Borneo, but no particulars. I need not, however, trouble myself on this account just now, as. I am aware I cannot now send you any news from the eastward of this place—the China and Ceylon steamers always forestalling me. For commercial news I must refer you to the Price Cur rent sent herewith, .contenting myself with saying generally that trade, except, perhaps, in respect to sugar, continues nearly as dull as per last advices. Prospects for indigo crop very bad, in consequence of want of rain t but it is though t that now even abundance of rain would not make the crop an average one._ _ _ _ Money market much as when I last wrote, gradually growing easier.

Nothing very remarkable has transpired since Saturday evening, when I made up my letter for the regular mail. The Precursor, which left town on the 3d, did not get out to sea until the 7th, owing to the strength of the wind right in her teeth. The weatherwise foretell a gale, and the ma jority of them fiked It for to-day; but though the sky looks wild, there are no signs of its immediate approach. There was a puff yesterday evening, which looked like the begin ning of the storm, but it blew over. It is very. probable, from from En I.i however, that'we shall have some rough weather.

DRURY•LANE THEATRE. The season closed last night with Benedict's opera of the Cs usaders and the ballet of the Devil to Pay. The following valedictory speech was delivered byXr. Harley : " Ladies and Gentlemen,—l regret to be obliged, upon the present occasion, to act a double part, to fulfil the duties of Manager and stage- manager, owing to the continued indis position of Mr. Bunn, the lessee. It is our duty on this oc casion, first of all, to thank our patrons for their patronage; and, secondly, to recal to their recollection what they have been so kind as to patronise. I have great pride in commu nicating to You that we have more than doubly fulfilled the promises he'd out in our prospectus, for in this theatre we do. issue a prospectus, and when I state that during the now ex piring season we have produced five new operas and live now ballets, all of them supported by the principal artistes of the continent, in addition to our own native talent, a grand spec- - tacle and a pantomime, besides the almost equally trouble- . some revival of several established pieces, I can state, without' the nossibility of contradiction, that no theatre in Europe of similar magnitude has produced one-half of that number in a similar period. This •is only mentioned to give you. an a'surance that the season which will begin at the ordinary period of•Septcmber, shall be sustained by equally strenuous exertions." 3ir.

The events of a single week in the hot weather in India— for over no longer space 'does our present summary extend— furnish small matter for narrative, none for speculation. In the Jullindur Doab troops are still moving up on Kote Kangra, against which, at our latest dates, active operations had not commenced. Everything continued tranquil in the Punjaub, the Seikhs watching with the utmost anxiety the approaching siege—hoping, doubtless, that in the mainte nance of a position deemed impregnable their kinsmen would prove successful. There are some 12,000 men quartered in the Jullindur Doab—nearly a third fewer than are required to maintain the line of the Indus ; the revenue of the former being nearly treble that of the latter acquisition, its climate being asremarkable for salubrity as that of Sinde is for its uchealthiness. We have - had no rumour of constituting the Jullundur Deab into a separate presidency, while salary of 10,000/. for the Governor. Some military operations against the Khoonds in the Goomsoor country continue in progress., The . new arrangements for the transit of European passengers through Egypt have given rise to much discus sion—the present management being apparently as little calculated as possihle to give satisfaction. The symptoms of the approach of rain, which had a week since begun to mani fest themselves, had drawn oft', and the weather become very hot. Cholera is extensively prevalent amongst acme of the native regiments in the N. W. division of Gooz?rat—the 22d having lost its surgeon and 152 men in the course of a few weeks. Six of the wives of the soldiers of the 60th Rifles were on Monday cut off, on their way to join their hus bands, and many of the vilages of the Concan have been deserted. BOUBAY, MAY O. Now conics the season of the year when the monsoon oc casions every variety of irregularity and delay amongst our mails. It is but a week aitiee I wrote you ; in ten cllya' time you will hear from me vies Madras, and not again rill the 19th of June, when my dispatches will take six weeks instead of a mouth on way; and - go this will go on till 1 .September, from no fault of ours, but from the fact that from the time the sun crosses the latitude of a place going north ward, until he recrosses the same latitude going south again, the wind puffs away in gusts and hurricanes from the south west instead of blowing steadily and decorously in alternating land and sea-breezes from north-east and north west at the place to the northward of which he happens to be. For all the intelligence they can carry from India at this season the overland mails, if stopped, would hardly be missed; The Delhi and Meerut mails of the 10th and 12th have come in this morning. According to the former of these an extra force had been ordered out for the assault of Kote Kangra .; according to the latter that the troops ordered had not marched ; and we were most likely to gain possession of the place by negotiation, 'without any hostile effort at all. The natural strength of some of these hill forts appears to be without parallel. They consist of small-sided table-lands, very abrupt, and surrounded on every side .by mural precipices, perfectly perpendicular. In some places they are skilfully galleried and armed after the most approved European sys tem. Kote Kangra mainly owes its strength to its natural defences; neither the batteries nor the garrison appear strong, and there is no doubt of its speedy reduction were operations once commenced against it. Of course the Governor-General would prefer having his men spared during the hot weather, and would he better pleased to persuade than to compel the Killedar to submit. The sympathies of the country people all around appear to be with us. At Lahore matters continue perfectly quiet. The little dis turbance mentioned in my last seemed to have been purely accidental, a n d was followed by no disa greeable results, unles s to the Brahm i n r i ng l ea d er , who was hanged. The troops seem to have made them selves wonderfully comfortable, considering the shortness of the time allowed to make arrangements. Good health, good spirits, and general contentment appeared universal. The Jullindur Doab again seems likely to become one of the present sanatory stations along our north-west provinces, where the garrison may be made to consist of convalescent troops. The Raja of Ladwa, one of the chiefs of the pro tected states who first turned traitor against us, has been captured. He . had for some time been concealing himself amongst the shrines and sacred villages near Lahore, where his person was secured. He has been sent within our fron tier as a prisoner. It is likely he may be punished by the permanent _forfeiture of all his dominions—he himself re maining a prisoner in our hands. The Qaeen appears to hare recovered from her indisposition. The following ac count of the actual prepaoations against Kote Kangra is from the Delhi Gazette of the 10111, as already stated ; it seems r mor i et te ahaitr alldo : )fulul whether actual hostilities will be found requisite " The general belief then was that the garrison did not amount to more than 500 men, though it was known that the Killedar was daily increasing it. The number of guns was first said to be 10, and the fort is reported to be provided with ammunition and provisions for two years. All the gates, except one, had been built up, and the bridge de stroyed by the garrison, leaving but one plank to keep open their own communication. It was on the 21st of April that the 44th were called on to protect the town of Kangra, or Nuggurkot, from the danger to which it was exposed on the part of the garrilon of the fort. The pass across the hill, separating the valley of Dowlutpoora from Kangra, being completely commanded by the guns of the fort, the regi ment bad to follow a circuitous route of some twelve miles, the direct road being only three. They reached their desti nation on the 22d, and the fort of Mulkera was immediately surrendered on demand, by Sirdar Itunjoor Singh, and a company marched up and took possession. This fort is said to be 'very trumpery indeed, but situated on a pretty cons inanding-hill, with a picturesque town at its feet to the north.. Oa the opposite side (the south) a paved road leads to the gate of the town of Kangra, which lies in the hollow between the two forts, every house be in?: commanded by them. The forts arc about a mile apart, and .consequently unable to injure each other, , unless provided with very heavy guns. Oa reconnoitring the enemy, immediately after the arrival of the regiment, it w t v e a w s r,h t ascertained ath teg thates w theyereall were s strongly ug3 possession guarded, and of the wholethat several small towers, in good positions, had been loopholed, and were well defended, everything bearing the appearance ' of a disposition to offer a stout resistance. The possession of the town was a matter of the first importance, and an attack-: ing party wastherefore under arms at two the next morning .: (23d). They reached the gate about„ half past three, but found, to their no s ma ll surpr i se , t h at t h e enemy had aban doned the town and retired into the fort. Tha party marched 'through the streets to within 250 yards of the.walls, when the enemy opened their guns. : The object for which the party had beeadetached having been entirely gained, they took- up a position under cover of the Ulises at the disNnca last mentioned,.and continued to hold it up to the date of the last advices received in Jullindur, the garrison keep • ing ain a pretty steady fire of round shot and grape, day and night, but without doing any injury be yond smashing some of the empty houses. Their shot penetrates- only four walls, and the Jacks take the pre caution of always having six (three houses) between them and the danger, and in case of these being broken through, them during they retreat a proportionate distance an d number.

The conuncudations of.the climate and condition I of our new possesshins, continue lonet and universal. At Lahore matters Appetit to col ti nue peilectly tranquil. The !Virg rumours.of-contemplated treason or uieditated hos tility, which occasionally get into circulation, seem altoge ther baseless. The heat of the - weather, which, by Dlid summer becomes extreme, was beginning to get di , agreeabl k , The Governor of Iroolfan had beet superseded, and fingwan Sine;lt, brother of the Raja L3ll Singh, bad proceeded to 1.41 Le hi; place. .Ajeet Singh, Raja of Latlwa, one ofthe !knotted stat, , s, had *be. , n male prisoner at Lahcre and sent into onr . territories, lie was ore of the earlh-st and most Prominent traitors O our side the Sutlej, and is not likely to-have the concessions prayed for made to him. These few nel un important items are all that have transpired since our last in reference to the Punjattb—no news being a bad thing enough fir us, but the WA of symptoms of the sati.fae-_ toriness of their condition. Absolutely supplies us nu heading at all; not one item of intelligence wort of . a place in our first page ale having been received from the- banks or the Indus since our last. FIE KHOONDS. In a time of unive r sal and profound peace throughout India a little war has broken out in the Goomsoor count ? ' one of the aboriginal races of th e • p e e p l e of liidiaarn. Z 1e Khoonds—the parties referred to—are obviously of Scythian origin : they are in person, intellect, mariners, and customs altozether unlike the inhabitants of Hindostan. They are fearfully addicted to drunkenness; female infanticide and promiscuous cohabitation are prevalent amongst them. Most 6ingular of all, hundreds :and hunclieds of persona are annu ally destroyed as sacrifices to appease the offended Deity. It is•but twenty years since we first knew of their existence-- hut ten since we became aeqnainted with their peculiarities. .Since then we hive had a resident amongst them, who has done every thing in his power to put an end to the horrible practices just alluded to. Captain M'Pherson, to whom we are indebted for much' the greatest portion of the information we possess—for nearly. all the efforts that have been made to put a stop to the fearful practises of this strange and myste'ri'ous people— has of late, in the course of, his exertions, met with un usual opposition. On the 14th of March an express, from this officer reached the commanding officer at Ilussulcon dab, intimating that the - Khoonds were rising and threat toseatack him, •arat requesting rcinforgemele& days afterwards a farther express7inti;nateethat he u'as then eight miles nearer Russulcondalt thanlonnerly, and that the KhOonds were preparing to make' an irruption into our territory. Three companies of native infantry, were, at his request, accordingly ° immediately dispatched to his assistance. The troops were directed to be as lightly equipped as possible, and to proceed with all imaginable haste. They traversed forty-six miles of wild hill country in thirty-six hours, arriving at Kungoor, the place of their destination, at six A.M., on the 18th. The rein forcement, of the arrival of which the enemy were ignorant, had been about two hours in camp 'when the cry arose—" the Khoonds are coming,'' and-accordingly some one thousand armed men came rushing on from the hills, hooting and yelling like demons, and making straight for the camp, where they supposed the escort of, Captain j McPherson, .consisting of fifty men, were all they had to deal with. Observing the reception they were likely to ex perience, they halted suddenly, and a few leading men came tbrward, desiring to speak with the commanding officer. lie accordingly proceeded to hear them, when, atter some conversation, they peaceably retired. For the next four days all remained qniet; on the 22d, about 2,400 advanced in hostile guise, as many more being reported to be concealed behind the hills. When within two or three hundred yards of us, they halted and sent on about fifty men from their front, who came hooting and yelling, running and dancing from side to side, till within fifty or sixty paces of the sepoys. The order was given to fire, when three fell, and a good Many were wounded, and the rest made off as rapidly as pos sible. Nothing more occurred till the 29th, when Captain M'Pherson marched on Pooranghur, and succeeded in snak ing prisoners of six of the principal men who had been con cerned in the previous attack. AGRA. The first instalment of the Seikh gins, in number GO, came in this morning, and the rest will follow. From Delhi the routes lay via Meerut and Ally,ghur to this. The public in spection will take place when al4 have arrived. The thought of these guns being conveyed at this blazing season to Cal cutta (800 miles) made me instinctively draw my chair closer to the cool tatty.—Bengal Burk ant, May 8. COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

THE GREAT-, ROWING MATCH BETWEEN NEWELL AND CLASPER, FOR TWO HUNDRED POUNDS. • NEWCASTLE-ON-TYNE, lfoxnAr. . The match between Newell and Clasper, which has excited most extraordinary interest, came di' this afternoon; and has been decided in favour of Newell, who has proved himself in all respects the better man. The race was fur 100/. a side, five miles between - Tyne-bridge and Lemington-point, with every part of which, and- the set of every current, Clasper was of course familiarly mitainted. The toss for choice of sides was won by Clasper, who, as on tbrmer occasion; se lected the north side of the river. The time was fixed at half an hoar before high water. The boat in which Clasper rowed was built by himself, 24 feet long, greatest breadth 22 inches; 6 inches forward and 4 aft, outside measure; rake of thqstem 14 inches ; outrigged and straight between head and stern. She was built to row against Carroll, of Liverpool, and is th e same i n w hi c h Cl asper contended with Pocock, Clasper winning both events. Newell's boat was. • built by Messrs. Wentzell and CoWnden, of Fore 'street, Lam, beth—a beautiful model, 30 feet long,ant in extreme breadth about two feet, outrigged and veneered with mahoganr. Clasper'e boat was open, Newell's covered in with canvass To keep out the water.. Both boats sat neatly on the water, but Newell's dipped forward on feelins , the strength o f t h e oar—a circum s t ance whi c h appeared. to inspire Clasper's friends with great confidence. Clasper is 35 3 - ears of age, and weighed 9st 316; Newt 11 36 rears of ag e , mind weighed 10st 41b.
