OVERLAND 31 AIL INDIA. (From the Heiald.)-" - We have received, by Extraordinary Express, our dis patches in anticipation of the Overland Mail from Bombay, bringing accounts eight days later - from Bombay, and twelve days laterfrom - Calcutta, than those which appeared in the Morning Herald of SatUrday and Monday. The dates now come to band are, Bombay, May 20; Cal cutta, May 11; Madras, May 15 ; Delhi, May 10. The ac counts from. China are no later than those by the Calcutta mail. The political news is not important. The Punjaub was tranquil; the fort of Kote Kangra was expected to surrender without an actual resort to arms. In Western India the sufferings occasioned by the scanty fall of rain throughout the two previous years were likely to be relieved by an early monsoon, signs of the near approach of which had become apparent ten days earlier than usual. The pressure in the money market continued severe, though the pinch was somewhat less tight than formerly and the want of confidence was even more heavily felt than the scarcity of cash. No further bankruptcies of any note had occurred. Cholera was committing sad ravages in the Bombay pre sidency. One-fourth of the men of the 22d Native Infantry had in a few weeks been cut off by it ; and many of the villages of the Concan were depopulated and deserted. One sadcase is stated of the women of her Majesty's 60th Rifles, who had caught the seeds of the disease between Poonah and Bombay, whither they' were about to have proceeded to join their husbands at Kurrachee. On the 18th, six (f them were caniad to their graves together. The weather in the jtilltindur Doab was peculiarly fine, and the troops were in the highest health. In Sinda and Lahore the heats wer , t sattinc, in. The following * is a list of the passengers who left Bombay for Suez by the steamer Victoria on the evening of May 20 : Mrs. W. Gray, two children, and a European female ser vant; -Mrs. Sprague; Mrs. Quinton, two children, and a European female servant; Madame Mouton; Mrs:Hallett and a child of Mrs. Muspratt's, with two European servants; Mrs. Wahab, child, and a native servant ; Mrs. Unwin ;- Mrs. John Gordon and two children ' • Mrs. Baldwin, three children, and a native servant ; Mrs. Ravenscroft and child ; J. Bell, Esq. ; T. Eisdale, Esq. ; Lieutenant-Colonel Crawley, 25th Bombay Native Infantry ; W. Gray, Esq., superintend ing surgeon Bombay Army; Colonel Mouton, late of the Seikh Army ; Colonel Hurbon de Alcantara,' ditto ; A. C. Stuart, Esq., Bombay C.

Second Class:—Mr. Gould son, Abrahambin Issack, and Ally Abdoolla, to Aden. (From the Ovetland Bombay Times, May 20.) SUMMARY. The events of a single week in the hot weather in India — for over no longer space dues our present summary extend — furnish small matter for narrative, none for speculation. In the Jullindur Doab troops are still moving up on Rote 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 unhealthiness. We have had no rumour of constituting the Jullundur Deab into a separate presidency, with a salary of 10,000/. for the Governor. Some military operations against the Khoonds in the Goorhsoor 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 possible to give satisfaction. The symptoms of the approach of rain, which had a week since begun to mani- fest themselves, had drawn off, and the weather become very hot. Cholera is extensively prevalent amongst acme of the native reginients in the N. W. division of Goozerat—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 villages of the Concan have been deserted. BOliftAY, MAY O. Now comes the se!L3on of the year when the monsoon oc casions every variety of irregularity and delay amongst our mails. It:la • but a week cities I wrote you ; in ten days' time you will hear from ase via Madras, and not again till the 19th of June, when my dispatches will take _six- weeks instead of a month on their way; and so this will go on till 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 be 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 purely accidental, and was in3'' greeable results, unles s to the Brahm i n r i ng l ea d er , last followedseemed t byo have n o discb e e been who was banged. The troops seem to have made them selves wonderfully co mfortable, considering the shortness of the time allowed to m a k e arrangements. Good hea l t h, goo d spirits, and general contentment appeared universal. The Jullindur Doab again seems likely to become ,one of the present sanatory stati ons along our north - west prov i nces, where the garrison may be made to consist of convalescent troops. The Raja o f L adwa, one of the ch i e f s o f t h e pro tected states wh o fi rst turned traitor aga i nst us , h as b een captured. He had for some' time been concealing himself amongst the , shrines and sacred v ill ages near Lahore, where his person wits secured. H e has been sent within our fron tier as a prisoner. It is lik e l y he ma y b e p un i s hed by the permanent forfeiture of all hi s d om inions—he himself re maining a prisoner in our hands. The Queen appears to have recovered from her indisposition. The following ac count of the actual prepaoations against Kote Kangra is from the Delhi Gazette of the 10th, as already stated ; it seems more than doubtful whether actual hostilities will be found requisite at all : " The general belief then was that the garrison did not a mount 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, leavin g 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 Nuirgurket, from the danger to which it was exposed on the part of the garrison of the fort. The pass across the hill, S e parating the valley of Dowlutpcora from Kangra, being completely commanded by the guns of the fort, the regi ment had 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 Runjoor Singh, and a company marched up and took possession. This fort is said to be very trumpery indeed, but situated on a pretty com manding hill, with a picturesque town at its feet to the north. On Ike 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 ing commanded by them. The forts each, are about a mile apart, and consequently unable to inj u r e unless provided with very heavy guns. On reconnoitring the enemy, immediately after the arrival of the regiment, it was ascertained that they were in possession of the whole town, that the gates were all strongly guarded, and that . 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 was therefore under arms at two the next morning (23d). They reached the gate about halqast three, but found, to their no small surprise, that the enemy had aban doned the town and retired into the fort. The 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 been detached having been entirely gained, they took up a position under cover of the houses at the distance last mentioned, and continued to hold it up to the date of the last advices received in Jullindur, the garrison keep ing up a pretty steady fire of round shot and grape day and night, but without doin g 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, they retreat a posportionate distance and number. The jezails and long matchlocks of the garrison caused some annoyance to the sentries, particularly at night, but no casualty of any kind had Occurred from them during the f or •dapj DIVISION OF PROFITS. The remarkable success and increasing prosperity of the society has enabled the Directors at the last annual Investigation, to declare a fourth bonus, varying from 35 to 85 per cent. on the premiums paid on each Policy effected on the Profit scale.

DRURY•LANE THEATRE. The season closed last night with Benedict's opera of the Crusaders and the ballet of the Devil to Pay. The following valedictory speech was delivered by Mr. Harley : " Ladies Ind 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 prothises held 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 five new 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 possibility of contradiction, that no theatre in Europe of similar magnitude has produced one-half of that nu:nber in a similar period. This is only mentioned to give you an assurance that the season which will begin at the ordinary period of September, shall be sustained by equally strenuous exertions." . ALLEGED BRUTALITY OF A HUSDA:4D.—Yesterday, 1 Mr. Baker held an-inquest at the Sir George Osborne, Princes-street, Mile•end road, on the body of Sarah Scriveu, aged fifty-one years.

The muskets of the sepoyssaufiot, - of course, compete with matchlocks at such a diataine, -a circumstance which gives the garrison good deal of confidence, and on the 26th they made a sally with the option of burning the portion of the town in front of the occupying party. They succeeded in firing one or two of the houses, but they retreated is double quick lime when the sepoys turned out against them. On the 27th, the Raja . of Kurtocii. who_ had collected a for ce o f a b out 2,500 men in the 'neighbourhood of Kangra, to assist the 44th, and who was encamped on the road in rear of the fort, lent them three of his t•ix guns and a howitzer, and prepara tions were snaking for putting them in battery on the night of that day, so not as to leave the amusement of firing all to the enemy. Three companies occupied the town of Kangra, one the Fort of Mulkera, and the remainder were in the camp at the foot of the hill. They had pretty hard work of it, being constantly on the alert and unable to cook, or eYcn to take off their accoutrements, the weather at the same time getting rather warm, being from 92 to 9G in teats, and higher in the town, the feeling of heat being considerably diminished, however, by the cool and re- ' freshing aspect, some ten or twelve miles of 1; in a north easterly direction, of a snowy range ; 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 s mo i eg r e e r s likely toh a v t e o , a f n a d l 1 the upo g u n t n h s e m a r s e e s w t s h ta a n t e d t o t o a l h l o e ‘ n v o t t h b mo e r e than seven or eight in number, and none of them large, the largest shot picked up not exceeding four and a half pounds. The valley between the fort and the snowy range above mentioned is highly cultivated. We ought to have men tioned in its proper place the fact that Misr Poop Lall had reached Kangra on the afternoon of the 26th, with another urgent purwannah from Lahore, but it had not been sent in up to the last advices received in Jullindur. On the first intimation to the authorities of the recusancy of the Killedar, representations were made to the Lahore durbar, who issued purwannah after pur wannah, and dispatched them by the most confidential servants, enjoining immediate surrender, but as there was every appearance of these being all treated with the contempt bestowed on the first, the British authorities thought it best not to wait and see the result, but to prepare at once for the reduction of the place by fojce.-- -BrigaditsWheeler was ac cordingly directed to issue the necessary orders, and the 2d Grenadiers marched from Jullindur on the 25th of April, the llth 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 63d 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 he 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 provisiming the de tachment to a very small extent. Major Mayne, corn. 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 I3eas. 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." On the whole, so far as the appearances of things hitherto warrants us in drawing any conclusion, no arrangements could have been made promising to turn out more auspiciously than those just concluded. We have secured the tranquillity of the Punjaub by chastising, disarming, and humbling the tyrant military by which it was oppressed ; we have.in flicted all the punishment on them state necessity required, and this was less than was commensurate with their crimes, so much more are we entitled to triumph in our mercy and magnanimity. We have taken care that no such organisa tion shall again come into existence between the Indus and the Sutlej as to interfere with the tranquillity of the people, or endanger the frontier of their neighbours. We, have se cured from the ill-gotten hoards of Runjeet Singh an indem nity adequate to corer 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 live-fold by our expenses on the Indus; and finally the climate of our new acquisition is such that the troops maybe 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 atiiongst the troops along the Indus, and all look forward to the diminution of the cost of maintaining the country, which, after all, must remain excessive, to the extinction of ite and independent government for 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. A steamer has just come in, and brings, I am sorry to say, accounts of the death of Captain Arnie', of the -Ist Grenadier Regiment. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONbENT.) CALCUTTA, MAY 9. Here in Calcutta there is little stirring except wind and tire. 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 6th 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 Mutty 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 Suttee. You may not have heard that this same Mutty 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 Burmah, 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 ovents by the Moulmein newspaper. We have heard something of some disturbances in Borneo, but no particular. I treed 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 ; but it is thought 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. The settling day for the third opium sale (sth inst.) passed without a default. Exchange a little up again—touching 2s. Id., but may be quoted a little under that. Bank Stock in demand.

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 axed 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, however, that we shall have some rough weather.

The past week has scarcely supplied us with a single line of news from beyond the Indus, or Sutlej. No attack had up to our latest dates been made on Kote Kangra, and it was by no means certain that the arrangements formerly nse a men tioned as in contemplation were in progress of being r ie out.

The Seikhs at Lahore were looking forward with anticipations of triumph at our expected repulse. The commendations of the climate and condition of our new possessions, continue loud and universal. At Lahore matters appear to continue perfectly tranquil. The flying rumours of contemplated treason or meditated hos tility' w hich occasionally get into circulation, seem altoge ther baseless. The heat of the weather, which by Mid summer becomes extreme, was beginning to g et disagreeable. The Governor of Mooltan had been superseded, and Bugvi - an Singh, brother of the Raja Lall Singh, had proceeded to take his place. Ajeet Singh, Raja of Ladwa, one of the protected states, had been made prisoner at Lahore and sent into our territories. He was one of the earliest and most prominent traitors OM our side the Sutlej, and is not likely to have the concessions prayed for made to him. These few and un important items are all that have transpired since our last in reference to the Punjaub—no news being a bad thing enough for us, but the best of syMptoms of the satisfac toriness of their condition. • INDE. Absolutely supplies u s nS o heading at all; not one single item of intelligence worthy of a place in our first page having been received from the banks of the Indus since our last. - 1 1 HE K/106iVDS. In a time of universal and profound peace throughout India a little war has broken out in the Goomsoor country amongst n one of the aboriginal races of- the people o f India. The e Khoonds--the parties referred to—are obviously of Scythian origin : they are in person, intellect, manners, and custom s altogether unlike the inhabitants of Hindman. Th e y arc ' fearfully addicted to drunkenness; female infanticide and promiscuous cohabitation are prevalent amongst them. Most singular of all, hundreds and hundreds of persons are annu ally destroyed as sacrifices to appease the offended Deity. It is but twenty years since we first knew of their existence— but ten since we became acquainted with their peculiarities. Since then we have 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 mysterious people— has of late, in the course of his exertions, met with un usual opposition. On this 14th of March an express from . this officer reached the coinniaiiding offter at Russulcon ' dal], intimating that the Khoonds were rising and threat ening to attack him, and requesting reinforcements. Two days afterwards a farther express intimated that he was then eight miles neater_ Russulcondah than formerly, 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 M'Pherson, consisting of fifty men, wero all they had to deal with. Observing the reception they were likely to ex perience, they halted suddenly, and a few leading men came forward, desiring to speak with the commanding officer. He accordingly proceeded to hear th em , when, after some conversation, they peaceably retired. For the next four days all remained quiet; on the 22d, about 2,000 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 succeededin mak ing prisoners of six of the principal men who had been con cerned in the previeus attack. AGR A. The first instalment of the Seikh guns, in number 60, came in this morning, and the rest will follow. From Delhi the routes lay via Meerut and Allyghur to this. The public in spection will take place when all 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 Hark aru, May 8. COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

The express of the mail of the 24th March reached this on the morning of the 4th inst., and the Br ntinck arrived on the same day. Accounts of commercial affairs at home continue very unpromising, and the downward course of some of our staple products does not appear to have been yet arrested. The Company's rate for bills on Bengal was raised on the 11th of March to Is. ltd. per rupee. The period that has elapsed since our last issue is so short that we have necessarily little of any importance to communicate. There is little change in any of our export staples, and a very moderate busi ness doing in all. Exchange remains steady at about 2s. Id. on Eng land, anti Company's Rs: 200 to 202 per 100 dollars on China. Indigo—The lapse of another week has not improved the prospects of the indigo crop. and every day's delay of rain is now most critical. Tirhoot under the most favourable circumstances is now unlikely to make even half a crop; in Bhaghulpore everything is burnt up, and 'the adjoining Zillahs are almost equally badly off. In Kishnoghur speedy rain might yet ensure an average amount of sowings. Ex cept from a portion of Jessore, and to the eastward, where every thing now looks well, the accounts are as gloomy as they can be. It is scarcely within the bounds of probability that we can have now even an average crop under the most favourable clreuinstan,es for the future. Sugar—The improved accounts received by the mail have caused a brisker market for this article, and a fair amount of business has been done—Arrivals of the new Benares have been extremely li mited, one or two small parcels only having changed hands at about CO.'s re. 11-8 per md. Dobora has been sold to a moderate extent at Co.'s rs., 9 to 9-4 white Gurpatta, and other inferior date and cane sorts have found buyers at fully our last quotations. Raw Silk—The bazaar continues barely supplied, the native holders in the interior preferring to retain their large stocks for the . chance of some favourable turn in the market, rather than realise to a certain loss at present reduced prices. Sales of Cosaimbazaar to a moderate extent have been made at 8-12 Co.'s is. to 9. rs. per fy. seer for the usual bazaar sort. In other kinds nothing has been done. Silk Piece Goods—The exceedingly unfavourable account of the London piece goods sales has, of course, added to the dullness that previously existed in the demand for coral's. The quantity at tnar•- ket is by no means large, and the general quality Is improved, though there is still much room for further amendment ; one or two small parcels of really superior goods have brought our extreme quotations of Co.' re. 120 a 125 per corge. Rice—Previous to the arrival of the mail the purchases of table to a moderate extent were made at Co.'s ra. 2 2 to '2 5, being a alight advance on previous prices, but subsequently there has been nothing done. Shipments to the Mauritius proceed free►y, and sales of Hal• lam at Ce.'s re. 1 9% 1 10 are reported.

Cotton Piece Goods—There has been more dulness observable in the demand for these fabrics. Advices from the marts In the Upper Provinces are discouraging, and with the continued scarcity of mo ney, and generally overstocked state of the market, the. business transacted has been on a moderate scale. Shirtings—These goods have been sold without much change from previous rates. Jacconets—Bleached continue to sell pretty freely, and grey have also been quitted to a moderate extent, though without any improve ment in value. Mull Mulls —Prices have declined about I anna per piece for the lower qualities, and for all labrics under this head the inquiry is very limited. Book lifuslins —Rut little has been done during the week; there is a moderate inquiry for Rangoon, but with the present large stock, prices seem unlikely to improve. Lappets—A few sales of common qualities have been made at rather lower prices, but line kinds remain almost unsaleable, there being no demand whatever for such descriptions. The stock Is very large. . _ Lappet Scarfs have also been sold at a further reduction. Turkey lted Goods—The quantity of these goods at market is large, and prices remain mnch depressed, particularly for the lighter des :riptions of twills. Of 24 .inch goods, both twins and cambrics, the quantity on sale is much in excess of the wants of the market, and prices are proportionately low, viz„ 4% to 5 annas per yard. Medium width, 33 to 40 inches are at present most inquired for. Printed Goods—The season for the sale of fabrics under this head has hardly commenced, and demand therefore remains limited, while the prices obtained are extremely low. MONEY MARKET Bengal Hurkaru-office, Calcutta, May 9, 18.16. The prompt of the third Opium sale came off on the sth instant, and without any defaulters, although the push for money was vigorous. These heavy payments to Government seem to have much the same influence on the market as the railroad deposits at home, and we hold the more frequent sales to be on this account alone more desirable, as reducing the amount payable on a given day.

The question of the sugar duties has only been sewed off another month with difficulty, and by the indulgence of the House., On that question the Premier is said to experience a triple, or rather a manifeld incapacity. Everything, within and witho u t, i s against him. The dis tinction of slave and free labour is. first, scarcely practicable„ Then, it ha , been fatal to the re, tulle. It has restricted a supply to the colonial tnarle.t, mai put into th pocliete of the planters the whole of the I.7noptee. which has been lost to the revenue. It has also been injurious to oar foreign rela tions. Furthe rmore , as mie , ht be' expected, the di st i nc ti on, a a practical measure, is by uo means popular. The con stituency is likely to •be agelnet it. The Conithotis, tee, exbibit strong signs of reflecting the public opinion on this subject. But even the Cabinet is divided. Mean while a rival has made the inevitable measure his own. The equalizing of free and slave-grown sugar is now Lord John Russell's policy. But it i s in t h e d epth el his own mind that Sir Robert is believed to have found his great difficulty. Ills jadement is traitor to itself.;` It is said that he has given up the distinction. Everything, therefore, is against it. The working of the . measure, the peculiar laws and accidents that affect the pro. duction and supply of' sugar, our commercial and political re laticns, the prosperity and comfort of the British consumer, thepublic opinion, the present bias of th e Legisla ture, as that bias is from Ministerial check, ri va l manifestoes, a disunited Cabinet, and, • lastly, the labefaction , re r Y e e leas nue, ed of the Premier's own faith in his measure, constitute an ag gregate of difficulty under-which it is evident the Sugar Bill, which it hag cost the Ministry so much ingenuity to devise, and so much labour to carry, must finally succumb. Against all these counter and destructive causes the Premier has no ground but his consistency. B r a z i l, ea is his. At home and abroad, from J9VTI to i from Charleston to Buenos Ayres, it is known as Sir Robert Peel's mea sure. To give it up is to renounce his identity. True, he might be inconsistent. He has the grace to repent and the discretion to improve. Of all the statesmen We know of, he deserves most the honours of the penitent. But, unhappily, after several such previous exhibitions,. is only five months since he made his last great recantation. One such act of piety in a twelvemonth is enough —at least in a Government. The Premier who stood up before the whole world in January and proclained, "I renounce m duties," cieznot rise. with equal y corn June and say, "I give up my sugai dutie.s: "tet -giren'up •• . - - they must be. Sugar must share the fate of corn. The only solution of the difficulty is to resign. Beat en , or not beaten • on the Protection of Life Bill, the Ministry w ill st i ll reeign_, Sir Robert would rather be beaten at once, and so spared the necessity of a spontaneous and gratuitou% surrender, - involving a painful Ministerial ezpoW.. Such is the almost immediate boundary of the poli tical horizon. All that we are permitted to know of the futunt is, that in a few days we shall be without a Government.- Whether the resignations of June will lead only to the same result as those of December, or the events of the intervening period have added strength, material, and popularity to the Whigs, a very few days will tell. Each side, it is evident, has many weaknesses to repair. Sup porter., reputation, principles, everything that forms a party, has been affected by recent changes. We will not venture to predict what course the Sovereign may take on the. re newal of those embarrassments from which she seems sa lately relieved; nor is it yet the time to speculate on the re sult of. an appeal to the people, if that, unfortunately for the general convenience, Should be thought a matter 4 imme diate necessity. We can only regret, as we do most deeply, that such interruptions and vicissitudes, so seriously injurious to the course of public business, and to the progress of social improvement, should still continue the irremediable vice or our constitution.— Times. THE GREAT ROWING MATCH BETWEEN NEWELL AND CLASPER, FOR TWO HUNDRED POUNDS. • .NEWCASTLE-ON -TYNE, MONDAY. The match between Newell and Clasper, which has excited most extraordinary interest, came off this afternoon, and has been decided in favour of Newell, who has proved 'himself in all respects the better man. The race was for 100/. a side, five miles between Tyne-bridge and Lemingtonlmint, with every part of which, and the set of every current, Clasper was of course familiarly acquainted. The toss for choice of sides-was won by Clasper, who, as on former occasions, se• lected the north side of the river. The time was fixed at half an hodr before high water. The boat in which Clasper rowed was built by himself, 28i feet long, greatest breadth 22 inches; 6 inches forward and 4 aft, outside measure; rakeof the stein 14 inches ; outrigged and straight between head and stern. She was built to row against Carroll, of Liverpool, and is the same in which Clasper contended with Pocock, Clasper winning both events, Newell's boat was built by Messrs. Wentzell and Cowndon, of Fore .street, Lam. beth—a beautiful model, 30 feet long,and in extreme breadth • about two feet, outrigged and veneered with inahoganv. Clasper's 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 feeling the strength of the oar—a circumstance which appeared to inspire Clasper's& friends with great confidence. Clasper is 35 years of age, and weighed 9st 31b; Newell 36 years of age, and weighed lOst 41b. The assemblage of spectators was immense, the banks oil the river all the way from Tyne-bridge to Lemington-point being densely eruwaed, as well as every eminence com manding a view of the scene. Five monster trains con veyed passengers slowly along the line of. the Newcastle and Carlisle Railway as the boats advanced, but thousands of pedestrians who attempted to follow the beats along the banks of the river abandoned the task as hopeless. Such a sight was perhaps never witnessed before, in any part of the kingdom. The waathcr - was delightful, the intensity of the solar rays being moderated by a gentle breeze from the south-east, barely sufficient to ripple the surface of th♦ stream, which presented a most animated appearance from the innumerable craft of all kinds moving to and fro upon it. The Ocean Bride steamer haying been engaged for the , referees and umpire, took her station at the southernmost at three pile pillars erected on the site of the proposed high. level bridge shortly before 3 o'clock, and almost immediately afterwards Newell entered his boat from the north side at the river, and pulled about for upwards of 10 minutes, when his party became impatient at the non-appearance of Clasper, and repeatedly called out to the referees thet " time was up." At length Clasper's boat, which was on the south side, was slowly launched, and Clasper took his seat in it amidst loud cheers from his friends. Newell • had by this time taken up his station at the starting point, near the pile pillars, about 50 yards above the old budge. Here Clasper Joined him, tioth the boats being then between the north and the centre pillars : ; but Claeper's referee objected to the position. of Newell, wishing Newell to come on the south side of ,the centre pillar, to which Newell objected, and the start was delayed some minutes in consequence. At length Newell yielded, protesting at the same time against the un fairness of the arrangement, which took him rather out of the strength of the flood tide, and also compelled him to take a wider course than he otherwise would have done. Two or three attempts by the men to start themselves were rendered ineffectual by Clasper not being ready at the moment. In short, there was an unusual dalliance on Clasper's part, which was attributed to a desire to protract the race till the strength of the flood-tide was exhausted;when he calculated beingable to wear out his opponent with hard pulling. On the part nl Newell, on the other hand, there was an evident desire be urge the race on, which gave rise to a little altercation. The start was made exactly at four minutes past 3 o'clock, Newell, by a strong oar, gaining a very slight advantage, which lie lost by veering to the north during the first 50 yards; and Clasper, by pulling straight on, obtained the lead, when his temporary success was hailed as a presage of victory with general and most enthusiastic cheering. Before, however, the boats had reached the Shot-tower \ewell had regained the lead, he gradually improved his sition, t t h h e at en po d in o t t being nearly a length a-head on reaching the end of the position, being Clasper fell into wake, where he continued Shot-factory-quay, and about 50 yardsb the race. The distance was rowed bv the winner in 2 , t4 ni e s eseiug half a minute It was as ' p lennutes, Clasper splendid race throughout, both men pulling bard all the ' way; but there wag_ a marked difference in the capabilities of the competitors, Newell maintaining his course with un deviating accuracy, without the slightest perceptible swerve. ing, while Clasper by his uneven pulling made an almost perpetual divergence. .Newell's admirable rowing wa s th e theme of admiration, And even some of the most strenuous su pporters of the Newcastle champion felt constrained to ad. wit the vast superiority of the London boatman. The race terminated without even a solitary cheer; sh e banks of coaly Tyne were dumb; every one appeared to he disappointed, anti it is calculated that an enormous sum wilt have been lost and won. The stakes will he paid over to Newell without a dispute. Notwithstanding the immense multitude of persons amain bled, such were the excellent precautionary arrangements adopted by the magistrates and police, that the proceedinas passed off without the slightest. accident. The men had the tide with them all the way. , NE WCASTI.R, MOND A Y maul: - SPORT ING INTELLIGENCE Sheraton, Georgr., Curiosity, ITIONAL Moore,Tommy Stephensea ADDALS.
