CASHMERE. The promise of tidings of interest afforded by Cash mere at the date of our last has not been realised, in so far at least as those are concerned who consider tales of battle and of blood the only interesting tidings Bella cin supply. The then emiclable-lacking insurrection under the .auspices of the Sheik Ematim- otid•Deen has been subdued with comparatively little resistance ; and there is at present every probability of matters returning to such a state of tranquillity, long before the term for the retirement of our treeps arrives, us to permit the treaty i,f truritsir to be fairly worked out. The (.:4 over t:et-bete he mi,lettit the (ieiei,,C of :he tamps Ghoulish 641tgh became- known to bite, having wade every effort to assist in brin g ing about an arrangement, caused Lieut, H. Edwardes, assistant to Colonel Lawrence, to be dispatched from Lahore, that he might endeavour to bring the insurgents to reason. The Lahore Durbar meanwhile exerted themselves to the same end, and D,wan Ilakeitn Rae, a man in high confidence and esteem, was dispatched on an embassy towards Caelme re. While on his way the accounts of the re verse of the Jr moo Chief reach , d him, and delayed his progress. Having at length got into correspondence with the insurgent leader, by this time aware of the con fiscation of, his property, and the arrangements made to coerce him, at guments were found of sufficient potency to extract a. promise of submission—seen likely soon to be compelled. The arrangements for the movement of troips theittauted in our last, had by this time been com pleted. The Maharaja marched out with all his army, Brigadier Wheeler's force occupying the chief posts in his rear during his absence, a Seikh force from Lahore co-operetilig with him, and a strong division of our troops fie im the same quarter moving in concert with those of Brigadier Wheeler. The following has been supplied us roman unquestionable source :—lt was quite true that the Jamoo troops originally sent out had been worsted, bi t neither to the extent nor in the manner described; that the bulk of . them had gone over to the enemy is alto gether grotindless, and the report seems to - have been founded on:the fact that 500 or 600 Rohillas did ac tually join the insurgents. Since then the Cashmerians have on three several occasions been beaten by the Seikh troops. Letters of the sth of October, from Cashmere, in timate that the Sheik, in evidence of the sincerity of his professions of submission, has entirely raised the siege of the fortress of Hurree Purvut. All the garrison wanted was a supply of water, with which they will now be able to provide themselves. With abundance of this at their command they can defy any attack likely to be made on them, and maintain themselves with facility till the siege be raised, should this prove needful. There was, how ever, every reason to believe that the war was over, and that there was no more risk of conflict. The Governor- GenCral had wisely determined that our exertions should not be relaxed—that we should be prepared for the worst that might occur till everything was tranquillised. Col. Lawrence was to leave Lahore for Cashmere on the 15th, followir , the two assistants who had preceded him, when it was hoped a final amicable adjustment would be brought about. It appears that so light and equitable, compared to what it used to be, is the revenue settle ment we have made in the Jullunder Doab, that the Ryot warriors, who, according to a correspondent of one of our north-west contemporaries, were likely to have shut us up in Cashmere, would most probably be the very first to make a general rising in our favour were we in danger. whom, on account of that love, we ought to have given Cashmere ? Independent of all this his father, and not the Sheik, was governor of the province at the time the treaty was made with Ghoolab Singh, and why should we have displaced the father for the sake of the son, of whom the Cashmerees comparatively knew nothing ? Nothing is more easy than to make an asser tion ; but unless borne out by facts, it were much better to have allowed the 1)0;1i° to arrive at their own conclusions than to attempt, to mislead them by such assertions as th ;se put forth by our contem porary. We hinted at a rumour that a secret under standing subsisted between Dewan Ai,oltstj, of Moultan, anti Sheik Ernaum-ood-Deen, and r xi.ressed our belief that the dela% s of the Dewan in proceeding to Lahore gave some colour to the report. 'On reconsidering the whole question we teel assured that no such understand ing, (which must have involved a quarrel with the Bri tish) could have ever existed. The Mofussilite not con tent with leaving the rumour where he found it, con verted it into a fact, and raised a superstructure of such evident absurdity, consisting of Mahomedan conspiracies throughout the length and breadth of the land, that we are quite sere, ised he should have persisted in his as sertion, as was the case in a subsequent number of his paper. We Ere told, on unquestionable authority, that Dewar) Moolraj has come to Lahore entirely on the strength of our guarantee for his safety. Is it, then, at all likely that, having obtained such guarantee, he would turn upon us, and league with one acting in open defiance of our wishes, and with a rebel to his own state? The Dewan now looks to us for a satisfactory suttlement of his affairs, and we are happy to be able to add that they are already in a fair train for ad justment. Indeed, so far from entertaining any feel ing fsTourable to the cause of the Sheik Emaum.ood- Deen, we are credibly assured that be has sent 300 of his picked men as a special guard to attend on the agent to the Governor-General in his journey to the 11,11 s, and has even offered to march himself to Cash mere, at the head of the whole of his troops, should such be the wish of the British authorities. So much for the league between DewanMosalraj and SheikEmaum ood-Deen, and so much for the accuracy of the travelled authority on which the Mofussilite first put forth his erroneous statements, and then supported them by quib bling arguments, We do not pretend to say that Maha raja Ghoolab Singh is the idol of the hill people. On the contrary it is our belief that he is feared and hated by a large portion of the population, and we believe there are good grounds for both the fear and the hatred, arising out of hfs conduct during the lifetime of Maha raja Runjeet Singh. But since then the current of his conduct has undergone a considerable change; it has been long thought the sway he held in the hills, as a deputy, would be converted, some time or other, into the sceptre of a sovereign, and it is reasonable to sup pose that he will treat his subjects in a manner very different to that which pervaded his conduct as a mere governor on behalf of another; he was then under the reasonable fear which example afforded, that he might at any time be deprived of his jagheers and of his pro vinces by the will of a capricious Sovereign, and he therefore, with the true oriental caution, screwed the last penny to lay up a store for the time of his possible disgrace. Now all things are altered. He is an inde pendent Prince, owing a nominal allegiance to the British, whose possessions are to descend to his posterity under our guarantee; it is his best interest to treat his new subjects with the consideration which will yield suitable returns, and to earn the good-will of his suzerain. And what superiority has Sheik Emaum-ood-Deen over Ghoolab Singh in this respect? He is hated to the full as much as any governor can be. His very name is detested in the Jullunder, where he is known ; and no better proof of this can be adduced than that the people have come forward to point out where the wealth of which he has plundered them is concealed. It has been stated, moreover, that all the hill chiefs are inimical to .Thoolab Sirgh. This is true only in degree. There are, in every family, half a dozen or more claimants to sovereign authority, and we are assured t' at in most cases one of the parties, formed by such division of in terest, is with Ghoolab Singh—the other, of course, against him. It might, with almost equal reason, be said that all the hill chiefs in the Jullunder are against us, because we have not restored them to their former thrones, and have only given them good maintenance. We shrewdly suspect that the devil is, after all, not so black as he has b; en painted. At all events, he is doing his best to wash himself clear of the stains which have defiled his character. It is, perhaps, not unnecessary to say, that in making these observations, we have no wish to recal our opinion of the treaty which delivered over the Cashmerees to the rule of Ghoolab Singh. Those who framed it believed conscientiously they had no other option in the then state of affairs, and it is certainly their business to carry out its provisions in all their bearings. Had the etishinerees risen as a body, and proved their determination not to submit by national resistance to the yoke, or had their movement been even as extensive as it was in the first instance reported to have been, we should take a very different view of the question. But this is not the case; it has proved the mere act of a rebel, and must be treated accordingly. It appears that the statement of our native correspon dent, made some days back. that our troops were moving to Kulloowal, a ferry town en the Chenab, about 15 miles from Wazeerabad, was perfectly correct. Briga dier Wheeler reached that place from Seealkote on the 13th of this month, with a pert of his force. The march between the two places was set down at 11 miles, but turned out to be 16, and proportionately wearisome, occupying six hours. A friend with that part of the force talks in the highest terms of 'the manner in which Brigadier Wheeler has conducted the march, " every thing being admirably well arranged." The second de tachment of the force, consisting of the 24th and 59th Native Infantry, of the Light Field Battery, and of the Bth Irregular Cavalry (Becher's), and commanded by Lieut.-Colonel Thompson, were following close on the brigadier. The latter has been ordered to halt at Kul loowal for some time, and his further destination will of course depend entirely on circumstances. It is quite clear, however, that the plan which had been previously agreed on with Maharaja Goolab Singh, for the occupa tion of Jamoo, has been abandoned, in part at least, and that instead of occupying the southern frontier of his territories, we have now military occupatio n o f th e northern frontier of the possessions of the Seikhs. The only item of interest communicated to us from Lahore, since our last, is that the greater part of our troops had crossed the Ravee, and that the destination of the agent of the Governor-General bad been changed; instead of proceeding to Jamoo, as previously stated, he started on the 15th instant, on his way to Bheemhur, by dale, having dispatched his baggage two days after his arrival at the capital. News had been received from Reehursee to the 10th, communicating information to the effect, that the surrender of the Sheik might be hourly expected, unless he deceived our authorities a second time, and that he had agreed to leave the valley in a few days. Meantime it was most wisely determined to make no relaxation in the preparations for his forcible ejection, should he continue to prove refractory. Eight guns were, on the 12th, sent to overtake the force of Tcj Singh, and what is perhaps even better in these days than diplomacy, carefully edged with silver so much in vogue—five lakhs of rupees had been sent with them. We need hardly say there is no truth whatsoever in the report that Ghoolab Singh, with Lieut. Edwardes and others, had been besieged in Reehursee. In reference to the general affairs of the trans-Sutlej states, we understand that in reference to the services of Mr. John Lawrence being required at Lahore, for some two months to come at the least, and his consequent ina bility to attend to his peculiar duties as commissioner in our trans-Sutlej possessions, Mr. George Blunt, of the civil service, has been appointed to officiate for Mr. Law rence in that capacity, and that he is ill accompany the Governor-General into the Jullunder, eiu Belaspoor, his Lordship's camp moving from Kailca to the Jullunder by the plain route. Since the above was written, we have received letters leaving no doubt on our mind that Sheik Emaum-ood- Deen has, by this time, finall; accepted the terms of fered to him, much too favourable, in our opinion, con• sidering the trouble he has given us, and quitted Cash mere for Lahore; and the moment the troops of Ghoolab Singh are in possession of the valley, will, we trust, see the return of our force from its present advanced posi tion. Then will come the question of the evacuation of Lahore. How that may be finally settled remains to be seen.

Unhappily the young Nawab had been fostered in his errors by one who ought to have checked or restrained them ; and his own father-in-law, Ameer Mahomed Khan, who lived upon his resources, was, under the guise of the most assiduous attention, the worst enemy his son possessed. The succession fell upon an infant daughter of the Nawab—grandchild of course of Ameer Mahomed Khan; and she having been fully recognised by the British Government, preparations were made for the due administration of the affairs of the country. The arbitrary and tyrannical despotism and disgusting debaucheries of Ameer Mahomed Khan were so notorious as to have excited general disgust in all the respectable members of the community ; yet, notwithstanding these things, he endeavoured to create a party, and stir up tumult, in favour of a natural soai of his own, whom he_wished to elevate to the seat of authority. It having been intimated to him that his wisdom lay in remaining in quietness, and that he was expected to retire to the fort of Rahseen, in his own jaghire, he there set about collecting around him the dissolute, desperate, and discontented. To these were added the discharged servants and discountenanced as• sociates of the late Nawab, from whom he contrived to obtain nuzzurs and loans of money. Ilis creditors at length became clamorous, and he_ had recourse to his old expeaent of throwing their claims upon the state. On one occasion, subsequently to the death of his son• in-law, he had appealed to the Regency successfully, I but it was intimated that no further attempts of the like kind must hereafter be made. On this occasion, how-. •• ever, the Regency determined Itt once to pay off his debts, provided he would adjust the c:aims of fol lowers, and dismiss th em , an d hi mse lf proceed ti? , Bhopal to have everything arranged, and live in quietness under rn the eye of the autho r iti es . H e now cons id e red foelt too strong to supplicate for that which he thought him self in a position to compe l ; an d h e s p urn ed the liberal _offers and mild conditions of the Regency. The attitude of defiance thus assumed was not destined to be long maintained. Ills followers became discontented for want of pay, and quickly quitted his camp. He seemed now on the point of being compelled to come to Bhopal, when Kurreem Khan, a refugee from the Nizam's do minions, joined him w i t h a l arge ret i nue o f me n. The position occupied was a strong one, an d t h e f orc e .col lected quickly amou n t e d to a b ove 2 , 000 , c hi e fly Rohillas and Villaities—men who had everything to gain and nothing to lose by adventure. Matters now assumed a somewhat alarming aspect. The pelt tical agent was directed by the resident at Indore to use the strongest remonstrances, and the malcontent chief was warned of the consequences of his contumacy. A day was fixed as the limit at which submission would be accepted : the chief, the night before, betook himself with his followers to the jungles. The state troops and Bhopal contingents were sent out against him, and on the third morning after his force was surrounded. The insurgents seemed determined to maintain their position, which was naturally a very strong one ; at last, after having been repeatedly summoned to surrender, they reluctantly complied, just as they were about to be attacked. Though Ameer Mahomed Khan, with his immediate attendants, came over to us, the Rohillas and their chiefs remained obstinate, and, after repeated warnings, the guns of the contingent opened on them. The war cry was raised, and resistance at first was stout and energetic ; an attempt was made to charge, but the guns were too formidable ; and at the first shower of grape they reeled, retreated, dispersed, and fled. The Ameer's two sons were taken ; Kurreem Khan is believed to have been slain, and the principal leaders have fallen into our hands. The casualties in the con tingent were about 48 killed and wounded ; and on the part of the Rohillas, about 250, and 120 prisoners. The country is now quiet everywhere around, and thus has ended an affair which, but for the promptitude and decision with which it was encountered, might have occasioned infinite annoyance and mischief. AFFGHANISTAN. Our Caubul news letter has been delayed considerably beyond the usual period of its arrival. The reason for such delay has not transpired, but may probably be attributed to the disturbed state of Affghanistan itself, and to the commotions between the Attok and Lahore. It brings intelligence from the 26th July to the 9th of August. On the first-named day the Ameer, Dost Ma homed Khan, was engaged in settling a long pending dispute between Noor Gool Kban, a chief of the Ghil zaies, Mousse Khan, Barukhzaie, and the heirs of Meer Afzul Khan, of Gundamuk. Having disposed of this matter, the Ameer proceeded to the house of the Meer Hajee, when he was stopped in the street by a man who complained of having been robbed near Killa Kazee of 45 rupees. Other people took the opportunity of mak ing complaints on other matters, and his Highness was at last so thoroughly mobbed as to be obliged to return to the Balla Hisser. On the following day a messenger announced the arrival at Killa Kazee of the daughter of Yar Mahomed, on which Khan Shereen Khan was desired to make such preparations for the reception of the lady as became the sovereigns between whom she was to become so precious a link. A kassid, bearer of letters from Peshawur, arrived the same day, and com plained that he had been detained three days at Jellalabad. On being asked the reason, he replied that Murdan Khan (the acting deputy -governor) had alleged that he was constantly the bearer of news letters from Caubul to the British in Hindostan. The Ameer said he himself heard of a man, of the name of Ruheem, who was in the habit of carrying letters to Hindostan, and that he should have special instructions given to find him out. Mahomed Shah Khan Ghilzaie announced, on the 28th, that he had safely brouehts the kafilas through the passes. Instructions were issued to all the chiefs to be in readiness to accompany Mahomed Ukbar Khan on the morrow. A report came in that a large kafila, bringing indigo and other articles of value from Jellalabad, had been attacked and plundered near Gundamuk. The merchants had, however, plucked up courage to tallow the Ghilzaies: on overtaking them a regular skirmish took place, in which some lives were lost. The thieves succeeded in carrying off some of the lighter articles, but the greater portion was re covered by the merchants. In the evening all the pre sents intended for the bride were taken out, and placed in order ready for bestowal. On the following day the Ameer sent to the Wuzeer a large number of valuable ornaments for his personal decoration, and the whole of the "Nuwabs, Khans, Sirdars," and other men of note, being assembled, the Wuzeer was deputed at their head to the fort of Kazee to receive his bride, the Ameer following. The Herat Rafila was met at a dis tance of about three koss from Caubul, and the whole pitched their tents in the plains near Char Deh. Refresh ments were served out to the guests, some 3,000 in num ber, dancing continuing throughout the day; and a sumptuous repast was served up in the evening to all in the camp according to their degree. After this the pre sents intended for the bride and her attendants were sent into her tent, on which those gifts brought from Herat for the bridegroom, his father and his brothers, and which are represented as very valuable, were pro duceel by the Herat party. Dancing was resumed till late at night. The festivities continued till about three o'clock in the afternoon the next day, when the bride having been placed in a handsome tonjon, was conducted with the utmost distinction to the Balla Hissar. On her reaching her apartments, the Wuzeer paid his respects, attended by his father and brothers. On the morning of the 31st dancing and eating were resumed with renewed energy, and kheluts, suited to the occasion, were distributed amongst the chiefs of the Durbar. On the morning of that -day the whole people of Caubul were entertained in turns in the Balla Hissar, commenc ing with the Juwansheres of Chundvol. Their respective chiefs then presented the usual salaamana to the Wuzeer, and the ceremonies of the marriage terminated. The Ameer was, however, somewhat rudely awakened from this scene of rejoicing in the afternoon by a report from Meerza Abd-00l Summeh Khan, that owing to the late proceedings of Mahomed Ukbar Khan against Meer Afzul Khan, the whole of the Ghilzaies were again in arms, and the passes absolutely closed, and that something must be done to put a stop to these frequent insurrections. During the day also the eyes of the Wuzeer became exceedingly painful, and the Ameer, annoyed at the tidings just received, said in open Durbar, that he had no doubt the sins of the ' Wuzeer were being punished in this manner. The Va keel of Meer Attaleelth Beg renewed the subject of send ing troops into Toorkistan, and said that the time was fast passing away. He seems to have advanced such reasons for the move that Sirdar M. Akram Khan was directed to place himself at the head of two battalions of 2,000 Suwars and 1,000 Jazailchees, with four guns, and proceed to Barneean, there to await further orders. He quitted Caubul on the 3d of August. On the following day news came in of serious disturbances having broken out between the people of Upper and Lower Swat , in t he course h f of August, wnic h the to daily the release unconditionally all the prisoners in confin ement, Ameer fights w e e x r p e r e t a s s k e i d n but on some fifty being brought before him, he cou ld not bring himself to liberate more than ten. On the 6th the g his p l a i c n e te n t O i o a n Ameer appeared so thoroughly out of humour at the Dur• bar, that our correspondent became anxious to asce rtain the cause, and discovered that he was displeased with the Wuzeer for having dispatched a letter without his know ledge to Yar Mahomed of Herat A fresh cause of dis satisfaction arose on the 7th, when the Wuzeer caused the imprisonment of a man on the false complaint of an enemy; the Ameer directed the immediate release of the prisoner, declaring that the Wuzeer was becoming shameless in his disregard of the anger of God, and that, for this reason, the finger of God was upon him. Although the Wuzeer was known to be suffering greatly, the Ameer neither went near him nor sent any one to make inquiries. On the Bth orders were for warded to Sirdar Mahomed Akram Kahn to compel the people of s Alei entreat etnr unarmedune na m dt tp e h number of property oer m mnt3 i e r eti c t .rn h i n a ct h n go e t un ipdi vi s e hns n eot t swb, i be done tdhr a oae Zungee in Haza re h t o pay t h e i r reve nue, as h e p asse d along to Bameean, as th ey h a d l a t e ly re f use d t o . d o so . n b ry d l nfyoowirto theneven u h : e ar n , sooor day llittys at ra_ t oy o f e tion. They said they were under the necessity of send ing their goods round by Kumla and Kohat. The Ameer declared he was helpless. All was to be laid at the door of the Wuzeer. He had caused Meer Ufzul Khan to be murdered, and these were the consequences. to prom, d forward to J amoo without reference to arrangements in progress—a strong demonstration of physical force being a powerful stimulant to negotiation. On the sth Major Troup, commanding the 15th Native Infantry, had died. He was much esteemed and beloved by all who knew him. The people throughout the country seemed well disposed towards us. The roads were good, and the climate peculiarly fine. The fertility and beauty of the country passed through on the third march were the theme of universal admiration. The Ravee was expected to be got over on the Bth, and Jamoo to be attained on the 14th or 15th. This post was to be occupied by Brigadier Wheeler in person, with the 15th, 30th, and 33d N. I. The 24th and 59th were to be stationed at Jesrewta ; while the 41st was to move from Noorpoor to Samba, and there be posted. Hosheearpoor was to be occupied by a de tachment of the 44th, under Captain Anderson, in ab sence of the 59th. The following letter, published in the Mofussilite, reached us after the above was written, and gives the latest news we have seen froi the force : " Camp, on the Banks of the Chenab, Oct.a , 1846. " The force arrived here on the morning o , 13th, and were ordered to halt until furthe ders. Much to our surprise, then, we rec'. , 40 ,, infor mation last night, as soon as the L e force under Brigadier Huish should have advanced near enough to support us, we were to cross the Chenab, proceed to Beembur, and halt there. The 14th and 59th, and Bth Irregulars, who were left behind have also received orders to join us immediately. Beem bur is situated on a sandy plain, beyond the Jalun, and is said to command by its position the principal pass into Cashmere. The Lahore Government force under Tej Singh crossed the Chenab eight days ago, and will first attempt the pass at Beembur. Should they be beaten, I suppose we shall try what we can do—an event which all eagerly look forward to. The force will probably not march.for three or four days. Our present encampment is a most desirable one in every respect, being close to a fine river, where those who like it can bathe or fish at pleasure. Strange to say, though the country is most fertile, and to the eye most likely for shooting, yet scarcely a bird is to be seen. We passed by Sealkote on the 11th, and inspected the fort, which is famous as having held out for a long time last year against 30,000 men with guns, &c. It is certainly a strong fort, but built on the native principle, and could not stand out long against heavy guns properly served. The natives seemed very proud of it, and affirmed it was impreg nable. Nothing going on in camp, and not a Seikh to be seen." COMMERCIAL IN TELLIGENCE. THE BOMBAY MARKET. (From the Chamber of Commerce Overland Price Current.) BOMBAY, Nov. 2.—Since the close of the Dewalle holiday's, on the 22d ult., ' there has been an extensive business done in piece goods. The dealers appeared anxious to purchase during the early part of the fort night, whilst their demand was freely met by holders— induced to realise by the advancing rate of exchange on England. Few of the Marwarree dealers, who are gene rally our most extensive purchasers, having, however, as yet come forward, the bazaar merchants appear within the last few days more reluctant to increase their stocks. It is alleged that the Marwarrees are deterred from mak ing purchases here by the state of the Calcutta market, where manufactured goods are selling under the Bombay rates, and from whence they are taking supplies in pre ference. The still disturbed state of political affairs in the north west, as well as the difficulty experienced by these men in cashing their drafts, owing to the scarcity of money and other causes, no doubt further contribute to limit their operations. Cotton Manufactures—The sales of the past fortnight have been principally in grey and white shirtings, mada pollams, and grey and white jacconets. There have also been considerable transactions in printed and fancy goods. Grey madapollams and stout shirtings continue in good demand, and realise full prices, say two to three annas above those of the :'early part of the season— August and September. Domestics are not so much asked for, the dealers not having disposed of their re cent purchases, but no reduction in price has been sub mitted to. In white jacconets of medium to good quality a considerable advance has been realised, but the demand is not extensive, and prices paid do not cover costs of goods long on hand, of which the stock chiefly consists. Grey jaconets, particularly low qualities, are in request, but the freedom with which the demand has been met by some parties has prevented any improvement in price. The supply of fine grey and white shirtings continues small, and they have slightly advanced in value. Fine white jacconets are also scarce. Cotton Yarns—Considerable sales have had effect in these. We quote a slight advance in Nos. 20, 30, 50, and 60 of mule, an also in Nos. 30 and 40 of water twist. Woollens—We hear of no transactions in these; prices remain unchanged. Marine Stores—The only alteration of price in these articles is in coal tar, which has declined from our last quotations, 5i rs. to 4irs. per barrel. We have not heard of any sales. Beer—A sale has been reported to us of Tennent's at 48 rs. per hhd., which is an advance of 3 rs. per hhd. on our last quotation ; other qualities remain unchanged in price. Spirits—We have not heard of any demand, nor any change in prices. Saffron—First quality of this article is scarce, and in request. A sale has taken place of 751 b. at 19 rs. per lb. This price is an advance of of a rupee upon the last sale made. Cochineal—This article is in much request, and very scarce. We hear of a sale having been made, and quote an advance of 1 anna per lb. sinee our last price current. EASTERN PRODUCE. Cotton—Supplies of broach, Surat, and Dollera have, during the past fortnight, come in to a considerable ex tent, and there are also a few arrivals of Comptah. Previous to the arrival of the English mail of the 24th of September, the market was exceedingly dull, and the dealers anxious to realise at a reduction in prices. The accounts by that steamer being considered very favour able, prices are now more firm, but as yet there has been little disposition shown to purchase. We hear of sales of 5,900 bales as quoted below. Very large ar rivals may shortly be expected from the interior. The following are the current quotations:-- Broach and Jumbooseer Rs. 74f to 75 per candy. Surat Dollera . „ 68 „ ditto. Oomrawuttee Comptah (old) Sales of cotton during the past fortnight :- 4,000 bales of Broach at rs. 75 to 76f 1,500 „ Dollera 400 candies of Comptah at rs. 70 per candy. Coffee—ln Mocha we quote a slight advance—the present price being rs. 71 to 8, per maund. Ginger has declined 10 rs. per candy of 51 cwt.: Opium—Little business has been done, owing to the stock on hand being of indifferent kinds; arrivals of a good quality are expected in December. The rate at present is from rs. 1,050 to 1,150 per chest, according to quality. Pepper—Bhutcole and Malabar have both declined in price, the former to rs. 55, and the latter to rs. 47, per candy. Wool—Considerable arrivals have taken place of Rho rassan and Persian qualities, which have been freely purchased at full prices. FREIGHTS. Freights to Great Britain were for a few days after the departure of the last mail firm at our then quotations, but from the little inclination there was to ship, they had begun to give way, and previous to the mail's arrival 725. 6d. appears to have been considered about the value of tonnage. Since the arrival of the last mail two ships have been taken up at 755., and there not being very much unengaged tonnage in the market, the rate is very firm at 755. to 80s. MONEY MARKET. In consequence of the opening of the Five per Cent. Loan the banks, which had lowered their rate of discount-to seven per cent. on private bills have again advanced it to nine per cent.; there is consequently some scarcity of money, and an advance in exchange of about id. per rupee, whilst Government paper shares and se curities generally have declined. Five per Cent. Loan of 1825-26 Four ditto 1832.33 Four ditto 1835-36 Five ditto 1841-42 Four ditto 1842-43 BB to 90 Exchange—May now be quoted at ts. Hid. to 2s. for bills at six months' sight on England. On Calcutta at 60 days' sight, 98i rs. ; and on China, 207 rs. to 208 rs. per 100 dolls. Banks—Bank shares have fallen, as will be seen by comparison with our last quotations. Commercial Bank shares, transferable at two years, at par, but no transac tions. Below are the current rates of bank shares: — Bank of Bombay rs.4o to 41 per cent. pron. Orientals Bank, Old Shares 3oi Ditto, New ditto Agra Bank 54 to 55 Commercial • 5 PRICE OF BULLION. Sovereigns, each re.ll 3 0 Bank,of England notes, per .£ 11 2 0 CALCUTTA. (From the Bengal MARKET. Oct. 19.) Since our last issue we have had little to notice in the monetary world besides the downward tendency of Go vernro ent Securities, more especially in the Four per Cent. Loans, both Siccas and Company's. Our quota tions .will mark the rapid descent; but we are told that no generally ruling rate has yet been established, vari ous a trcumstanees having influenced individual transac tions. Beyond the sphere of those transactions we find little alteration in the rates of accommodation in the bazar .r, and banks are at present passive. Since writing the a hove the September mail is in, bringing about 20 to 22 lakhs in Government bills, with a more satisfac tory report of monetary affairs at home. El' change has varied a fraction favourable to the buyer, and - Is. /lid. to Is. Hid. to id. at 10 months' date, have been referred to as procurable. Bank Stock as before. matters are now evidently working, will most likely re sult in an attempt to burn out the whole foreign com munity. The sooner such a period of commotion arises, if it is to occur at all, the better. The residents are fully prepared to defend themselves, and although the next gathering of the mob may evince a more determined opposition than they have yet displayed, with the assistance of the Hon. Company's steamer Medusa, we have no fear whatever of the issue. In our columns will be found the copy of a chop issued on the 16th instant, wherein the number of the killed on the 6th of July last is stated to be twenty; and for each of these is demanded the head of a foreigner. Another chop, of more recant date, in grandiloquence of langua;e peculiarly Chinese, utterly denounces an American gen tleman, an old resident amongst them, and who in his professional capacity it might have been supposed had gained their respect and esteem—warning him, that un less he renounces conduct which they deem objection able, he will one day, sooner or later, be massacred in the open street. Our right to enter the city has never yet been made available, and this fact will only induce the belief of weakness or fear on our part, and add to their bitter feeling of animosity that of ridicule and contempt. Her Majesty's brig Wolverine, Commander Clifford, proceeded to Canton on the 27th, some appre hension existing that a riot would occur on the follow ing day. Our Government, not satisfied with the effects of their narrow-minded policy and petty system of legis lation, as evident in the present ruinous state of the colony, have on a recent occasion manifested it to the extent of an interference with the rights of private individuals, subjects of an adjoining State ; we refer to the recent surrender of the two Portuguese gentlemen (the full particulars of which case will be found amongst our extracts from the local papers), who sought a refuge on the island from an unfounded prose cution which threatened to deprive them of liberty, re lying, of course, on the boasted freedom of our flag. They must have been wofully disappointed at finding, not only the expected protection denied, but that the Government should have gone to the extremity'of transporting them to Macao as prisoners on board one of her Majesty's vessels, which circumstance, even acknowledging their right f interference in the matter, would compel the in ference, thatjafter a full inquiry into the charge against them, and the strictest examination of witnesses, their guilt had been fully established; but so far from this be ing the case, there are found to be no grounds even for an indictment of a criminal nature. On the 30th ultimo Rear-Admiral Sir Thomas Cochrane proceeded to sea with the squadron, it was said, on a cruise for the benefit of the health of the seamen on board the flag-ship, amongst whom much sickness prevailed, in consequence of their late exposure and fatigue in Borneo. It is sup posed that the fleet are at anchor not many miles distant, but nothing is positively known of their locality. The Scout, Commander Loring, arrived on the 7th inst. from the Cape of Good Hope, and departed again, we pre sume, to join the squadron. The only vessels of war in port at present are her Majesty's ship Valture and the Hon. Company's steamer Pluto, the latter vessel still preparing. The French Admiral is still off the East Coast, with the Cleopatra, Sabine, and Victorieuse. It is said that they have visited Japan, and their flag was insulted. If such is the fact, wo shall doubtless hear more of them ere long in connexion with that country. The apprehension which existed in the early part of the month for the safety of two vessels, the Lark and the barque Warlock, has been allayed by the arrival of both of those vessels at their respective destinations. The clipper Warlock, we regret to say, was lost on the 15th instant, near the entrance of the Chin-chew River, and the whole of her valuable cargo plundered by the natives. A general order by Major-General D'Aguilar, dated Victoria, the 23d of September, 1846, suspends from their respective duties Brigadier Chesney, com mander of the Artillery, and Mr. George Pett, the Ord nance storekeeper. The charge against these two officers is not that they have in any manner sacrificed the inte rests of the public service, but that they have offended the dignity of the Major-General in his high command, and in not consulting 9 him as to the wording of their dispatches to the home authorities, in reference to an extensive removal of ordnance stores during the height of the rainy season, when it was reasonable to suppose that they would be subjected to incal culable damage. As respective officers of the Ordnance department, Brigadier Chesney and Mr. Pett had every right to protest against an extensive removal of stores in the month of June, as they are the officers directly re sponsible to the home authorities, and they had an equal right, we imagine, without consulting the Commander of the Forces, to fortify themselves against any charge of neglect that might hereafter be brought against them, should any damage have resulted by the removal of the stores in question ; but the Major-General, in his zeal for the service, and his devoted love for military disci pline and subordination, has sacrificed his own private feelings in the matter, and subjected himself to the pain and mortification of suspending an old and valiant soldier —and one, too, whose reputation does not altogether rest on a long life of military service to his country, and that but a month before the period of his command would have expired. We hear that the Brigadier was refused a court-martial on his conduct. The other gentleman who suffers by this disinterested display of authority is Mr. George Pett, whose demeanour during a residence of upwards of two years on the island has earned for him the esteem of all who have had the pleasure of his acquaintance ; but we have no doubt that this gentleman will be very speedily reinstated in office, for it is difficult to believe that the authorities at home can deem it of interest to the service to which he belongs, that the offi i cers should be subject to such arbitrary control." February next. The directors did not apprehend much opposition to thb getting of their Act, and under any circumstances it was decided to keep the waterway of the canal uninjured. The meeting received this announcement with great approbation, and Mr. GREEN wished it to be particularly understood that he went heart and hand with the undertaking, and trusted that if there was any one connected with the press present this would be noticed.—(Hear, hear.) A formal resolution was then passed - for the next general half-yearly meeting, on Wednesday the 2d of June next, the day appointed by Act of Parliament. Thanks were voted to the chairman and committee, and the meeting was dissolved. RAILWAY SHARE MARKETS. LIVERPOOL, DECEMBER 1.

LAHORE. Our latest news from Lahore comes down to the 15th of October, r at which date Colonel Lawrence had pro ceeded to bring the Cashmere arrangements to a con clusion, with the best hope of its being an auspicious one. Our troops were that day to make a short march ef seven miles from the camp, on the right bank of the Ravee, there being a river to cross at its close. Her Nlajesty's 80th joined them the preceding day—eight of the Seikli guns having at the same time crossed and pro ceeded northward. They were intended to assist Tej Singh, then some way in advance ; a treasure chest con taining 50,0001 accompanied them. Ittur Singh had at length moved on to join Tej Singh—both moving on with snail-like pace, unwillingly. The latter, when 12 miles from Bheembur, intimated his inability to go on for want of carriage. Luckily, services so reluctantly afforded arc not likely to be at all required. Colonel lluish, in the absence of Sir J. Littler, commander of all the troops in the Punjaub, had charge of the Lahore detachment. The Dewan Moulraj 'Nloultanee continued at Lahore, and the arrangement of the affairs of Moultan proceeded favourably. The following account of the presentation of the Chief at the Court of his Sovereign, is so characteristic of these ceremonies, as observed in the east, that it deserves a place entire : " JUS3 Mull having announced that the Dewan Moul raj was close to the citadel, the Maharaja Dhuleep Singh and all the heads of the people were summoned to take their places in the Durban The Dewan, accom panied by Dewan Dena Nath, entered, and presented the Dusserah nitzzuranas to the Maharaja Dhuleep, and to the Minister. After some miscellaneous conversation and complimentary discourse, Raja Lall Singh particu larly desired to know why the Dewan had grown so very thin? He replied that it was entirely owing to the grief which the death of his relatives had occasioned, and the dread of the anger which he feared he had created in the breast of tee Government. Moulraj then, accom• panied by Lall Singh and all the other Sirdars, pro ceeded to pay his respects to the Rauee in the Summit Boorj, where the Moulraj also presented her Highness with a list of presents which he had brought for her, and said that he had brought the key of the fort of Moultan, and his life also, to lay at her feet.' He further said that, had a proper person been sent for him in the first instance, ho would have attended the Durbar instantly, but as t e a r m anger ho.t hadny cause , heend an shown troops towards se n t against him by th histhe province, he-felt the indignity, and resented it. The Rance said the Sirkar had great confidence in him, and looked upon him as a trustworthy person. MOulraj then presented his sword and shield, which she took and returned immediately. After a short time the Ranee retired, and Moulraj accompanied Lall Singh to his house where ho is said to have declared that he was ready to show the most perfect obedience to Lall Singh's wishes. Lall Singh assured him that he regarded him (Moulraj) as a brother, and as such loved him. After examining the presents brought by the Dewan. they all proceeded to pay their respects to Major Lawrence." THE PUNJA LTB. • (From the Delhi Gazette, Oct. 17.) It will be seen by our native correspondent's letter that Lieutenant Lumsden has accompanied the force of Sirdar Tej Singh as agent. A part Of Brigadier Wheeler's force had reached Burro. Tind, two marches to the north of Seealkote, on the 10th of October. Colonel Sibbald, in command of a detachment,' consisting of the 41st Native Infantry, of the 3d company Ist battalion Artillery, with two guns, and of two troops of the Bth Regiment Irregular Ca valry, was halted on the 7th instant, on the right bank of the Ravee, in consequence of some of the horses of the battery (No. 17) having been knocked up. He quitted Noorpoor on the 4th, with the 41st, being relieved by a detachment of the 44th from Kangra, passed Pathan kot, a new Seikh station formerly of some importance, on the sth, crossed the Ravee on the 6th, and expected to reach Jesrowta about the 13th or 14th. A detach ment of the 44th, under Captain Anderson, is in occu pation of Hoosheearpoor during the absence of the 59th from that station. A friend with Brigadier Wheeler's troops says • that "all were well, the troops in high spirits, the country fine, and the climate delightful." From Ferozepore we learn that the force intended for Lahore, and consisting of her Majesty's 62d Foot, two troops of Horse Artillery (Lane's and Campbell's), the 6th Light Cavalry, the 3d Irregular Cavalry, with the 51st and 44th Regiments Native Infantry, were to march from Kussoor on the 12th instant, with treasure and food for two months, the whole under the command of Lieutenant-Colonel Ashburnham, C.B. Brigadier Reid remains in command of the station at Feroze pore. The cavalry of the late Bundelkund Legion were under orders to march to Jhansee forthwith. Captain Beatson (54th Native Infantry) had joined his regiment. (From the Delhi Gazette, Oct. 21.) Our letters from beyond the Sutlej contain much mat- ' ter of interest. We have prepared the following abstract of their contents :—From Cashmere and the neighbour ing districts we learn that Sheik Emaum-ood-Deen, elated probably by his temporary success over the troops of Maharaja Uhoolab Singh, was induced to withdraw his first offer to surrender, and which we recorded some time since on excellent authority. But subsequent events not so favourable to his interests, and manifest ing a lukewarmness on the part of his followers (which Has to be expected where a temporary disturbance, with such advantages as it might bring, was all they contem plated), have had the effect of again inducin g the Sheik to listen, and that more seriously than before, to the overtures which have been made to him, and which seem to us far more favourable than be deserves. These events involve the defeat of no less tban three of his parties in the Rajaoree and Poonah passes,* by the detachments of the Maharaja's troops, and more important than all, the compulsory raising of the seige of Hurree Purvut (Hur reepoor ou the Cashmere side of the Peer Panjel Pass), in the presence of the deputies sent by Lieutenant Ed wardes froM Reehursee ; we therefore look forward, more confidently than ever, to a speedy cessation of hos tilities, and to the return of our troops to their several cantonments to carry out the details of the relief, as far at least as recent c'rcamstances will permit. The more we think of the rebellion of the Sheik, the more we are confirmed in our belief, that it is the rebellion of an individual whom, whether saint or devil, a certain lawless portion of the population of the country would, at all times, be ready to follow so long as it might suit their purpose, or as long as he might have the means of maintaining them in their vagabond habits. The first reverse has proved how insincere they were in their professions of having taken up arms for the sake of their faith. and how little patriotism had to do with the matter. With such mountain defiles as they might, under able guidance, have secured the pos session of, a people, determined to be free, might have maintained their ground against any odds. Nothing can prove more triumphantly that it is not a movement of the people, as such, than that the first difficulty has in duced the insurgents to join their " heroic " leader in a petition for pardon of their offences. As for the Sheik having been the idol of the people, as asserted by the Mofussilite, on the strength of a traveller in the country (on this account we deem it necessary to controvert statements - which otherwise might obtain the credence to which they, are by ny no means entitled) we have ascertained, beyond a doubt, that he never wasiliCashmere before the year 1844 1 How then could he have been always employed in negotiatine ' between the Cashrnerees and Malni.raja Runject Singh? What then becomes of the love borne by the Cash menses to the Sheik, to * It appears by more recert information, that the troops of Ghoolab Singh were only defeated once. A confusion of dates induced a belief on our part that they had been re pulsed on two different occiolotis. CHINA, The accounts from China come down to the 28th of September. The following precis of the chief items of the intelligence we annex from the Friend of China: — By the Seaforth, which arrived yesterday morning from Colombo ' we have received files of the China journals to the 28th of September. We regret to ob serve, from a postscript to the Overland Register, that Mr. Robert Thom, Consul at Ningpo, is dead. The following summary of news for the month is from the Overland Friend of China of the 28th of September:— " The events which have occurred since the departure of the last mail are not altogether devoid of interest to a distant reader. Affairs in the provincial city are very far indeed from being in a satisfactory state: tranquil lity, in all probability, may be preserved until the north east MOll5OOll fully sets in, when the crisisto which SINDE. From Kurrachee we have intelliv s ence to the 26th, and of a few days' older date from all parts of Sinde. October is the month of fevers which fellow on the subsidence of the Indus, and a considerable amount of this variety of sickness ac cor di ng l y p reva il e d all along the river. The climate towards the coast was delightfully cool. Four of the war steamers constituting the Indus flotilla had been placed at the disposal of CH:)- vernment for goods and passenger transport. The ar rangements for plying them were partly incomplete; hut it was believed they would run once a fortnight betwixt Kurrachee and Sukkur, calling at all the intermediate stations. This seems an eminently expedient andjudi cious arrangement.

The results of that on Conductor INl'Donald proved that the clamour about defrauding the men of their sup plies by false weights and balances was without any foundation in fact. JULLUNDER DO AB. We were in our last only able to intimate the fact that Brigadier W heeler had starte d with a force of from 6,000 to 1 0 , 000 men, to occu py Ja moo in the absence of Ghoolab Singh on t he Cashmer e expedition.

A special general meeting of the proprietors of this line was held yesterday at the London Tavern, in Bishops gate-street, for the purpose of sanctioning a conditional agreement entered into for leasing the line in perpetuity to the Eastern Counties Company. Sir William Folkes, chairman of the board of directors, in the chair. The CHAIRMAN stated that the agreement was for 51. per cent. upon the whole capital of the company for three years from the opening of the line, and a minimum of 6/. per cent. ever after, the dividend being always two per cent. less than that of the Eastern Counties Company. A resolution confirming the agreement was proposed, and after a long discussion unanimously rejected, and in its place a resolution was agreed to, authorising the directors to renew the negotiation with the Eastern Counties Company on the basis of a fixed rest of 71 per cent. in perpetuity. Another resolution was also agreed to empowering the directors to take the necessary step or assist in ap- , plying to Pariiment nets session for Bills authorising the construction by the Lynn and Ely Company of a line from Wisbeach to Spalding, and Holbeach, and from Ely to Bury St. Edmunds, as well as docks at the port of King's Lynn, with a navigation or aqueduct from such docks to the River Nay in Norfolk. The business relative to the raising of the sum of 118.8001., part of the 120,0001. authorised by the Ely and Huntingdon Act, by the issuing of 10,000 shares of 91 each, and 108,000 shares of 2/. each, was postponed, and the meeting terminated. ELY and HUNTINGDON RAILWAY. A special general meeting of the proprietors of this line was subsequently held in the same place, and for the same purpose ; Mr. Henry C. Lacey, Chairman of the Board of Directors in the thair. The CHAIRMAN considered the terms offered by the Eastern Counties Company were very inadequate to the value of their property, and he, therefore, hoped they would follow the example of the former meeting, and re ject them unanimously. He had no doubt whatever that eventually the East Anglian lines would pay 101. per cent., but still a bird in the hand was worth two in the bush, and he should not object to the 7 per cent. The same resolutions agreed to by the former proprie tors were agreed to at the present meeting. LYNN AND DEREHAM RAILWAY. A meeting of the proprietors of this line was then held, and Mr. Lacy having resumed the chair, the reso lutions agreed to at the former meetings were then put from the chair, and carried unanimously. REGENT'S CANAL COMPANY. A general meeting of the Regent's Canal Company was held yesterday, at their offices at (the Canal Basin, City-road, J. E. D. Bethune, Esq., in the chair. The report stated that the profit balance to 30th Sep tember last was 13,670/. 13s. lid., including 6001. ss. 4d. remaining from the last account, which, after the pay ment of the dividend proposed to-day, would leave a sum of 8191. Os. lid. to the benefit of the next half-yeas. All the documents for the Bill for the railway were deposited with the proper officers, and the direc tors were quite prepared to go on with the scheme. A further sum of 4,4741. 9s. 4d. had been borrowed from the reserve fund for the formation of the taw en trance to the Limehouse Dock, and to pay for the pro perty required for that purpose. The committee were happy to say that they were now in possession of the property, and that the plans and sections for the work were ready, so that it could be commenced early in the next spring. Inasmuch, however, as stabling would be required for the horses in the first instance, it was in tended to charge a sum not exceeding 3,0001. for that object. _ The report of the auditors stated that the profits of the half-year amounted to 27,4151. 4s. lid. Both the reports were adopted by the meeting. A resolution was then put to the effect that a dividend of twelve shillings a share for the last half-year should be declared, and that the transfer books should be closed for its payment from the 19th December next to the 11th of January following. The motion having been se conded, after a short discussion, the resolution was adopted. In reply to an inquiry as to the origin of the increase of the rents from 1,60 0 /. to 2 , 1001 . , t he CHAIRMAN stated NARROW ESCAPE.—On .
