PRINTED LINEN CAMBRIC.—From this new and valuable development of the linen industry of Ireland, the province of Ulster is likely to receive a great im petus, and the schools of design now opening under the auspices of Lord Clarendon, a most wholesome scope for the exercise of their artistic taste. Among the many happy results arising out of her Most Gracious Majesty's visit to Ireland, is the introduction of this fabric into a new sphere. Her Majesty, on that occasion, selected for her own wear, a few dresses of this elegant material. And, doubtless, it is well worthy of such distinguished taste. Nothing, perhaps, in use, so combines delicacy and brilliancy of lustre as this ar ticle. It has intrinsic recommendations to secure its extensive patronage. It is pleasing to feel—because a large proportion of the value of those goods is created by labour—that an increase of employment will thus accrue to a country whose bane has been want of em ployment for an idle population. For the linen trade now diverging into this additional channel must neces sarily outgrow its former limits, and eventually spread itself over the entire country, imparting to the south and west that prosperity by which Ulster is so distin guished. PAYMASTERS' WARRANTS FOR CONVEYANCE OF TROOPS BY RAILWAY.-PENSIONERS' CLOTHES -A no. tificatiod has been made to the War-office, dated Aug. 24 instant, regulating the issuing of warrants for the conveyance of troops and discharged soldiers by railway or steam, by which it is ordered that when a regiment or detachment, in charge of a commissioned or respon sible non-commissioned officer, - shall proceed by railway, no warrant shall be issued, nor will receipts for fare be required, if it shall be evident the regiment or detachment have proceeded, but when a detachment or party is not in charge of a commissioned officer or re sponsible non-commissioned officer a warrant shall be issued. For an individual soldier a warrant shall be issued. All charges for railway fares are to be made by the paymaster, into whose payment they shall be re ported, and the paymaster who shall issue the 20 or 25 days' pay, authorised by article 44 of the Royal war rant, shall give to each man a warrant for himself and family, and may grant, where the whole journey is to be performed by steam or railway, further warrants, in order to bring the whole expense for the discharged man into his accounts, and avoid reporting him to another paymaster, the warrant to be made payable by the dis trict paymaster in London or Dublin, or at the terminus, who are to recover the amount from the paymaster, by whom the charge will be made. M en su ppli e d wall ra tions at the public expense will have deductions made upon them, which will be credited to the public. With regard to the clothes of enrolled pensioners, some mis apprehension having arisen as to whether pensioners may convert their uniform, to which they are entitled after five years' service, into a plain suit, the staff offi cers of pensioners, we believe, have been informed that no objection to their doing so will be entertained by the Secretary at War, provided the staff officer satisfy him self by personal inspection that it has been so altered as to divest it entirely of a military character, by which means thereafter neither party will incur any responsi bility regarding it. IMPROVEMENT OF SOUTH SIDE OF THAMES.— Nothing but neglect seems the rule. It is believed there are ample funds to proceed with proposed im provements' and in one instance the coal d u ti es are available. The south of the Thames is entitled to a share positively provided for by Act of Parliament. It is publicly stated that several new churches are to be built, that sites are selected, and that ample funds can be found. For drainage! that is put off !—for ever ! and the truth is, that it would be a great favour to leave all to the old management, for bad as it was called, it was infinitely better than the present. It must shortly come to this—that those who have been born and bred in the southern localities must surrender their present comfortable homes, though humble, and go into lodg ings—that most of the Government payers will be lost, the parochial rates greatly diminished, and taxes will only be obtained by the authority of Somerset House —a state of things that must arise if some energies are not immediately put out to stem the impending ruin. No district around the metropolis has been so cruelly treated as the southern boroughs—the "elder sister of London," as they used to be called—deserted, and be come a ruined heap.—Builder. MELANCHOLY CASE OF DESTITUTION.-01/ Tues day Mr. W. J. Payne, the deputy coroner, held an in quest at the Goldsmiths' Arms, Southwark Bridge-road, on the body of a woman named Catherine Brooks, who was found dead in her room.—William Farren, a police man, stated that he was called by a woman the previous evening to No. 2, Union-street, Southwark, who stated that there must be something the matter with the de ceased, as she had not been heard about for a consider able time. Ile proceeded to the room and found the door fastened. He obtained a ladder and entered by the window. On searching the room he found the deceased sitting on the floor dressed; she had evidently been dead many hours. Medical assistance was procured, and a vein was opened, but without any beneficial results. Ssw no signs of vomiting or purging. There was not an atom of food in the room. Dr. Farebrother had made an external examination of the body. There had been no violence, but the body was much emaciated. There were the usual appearances of death from cholera. —W. Brooks, the husband of the deceased, said he had been married 42 years. Deceased was 64, and a stay stitcher, but she could only earn a shilling a week at it, though she worked from morning till night, and part of Sundays. Her employers wished to cut her down to 6d. a week, but she declined, and had therefore done no work lately. Deceased had an allowance of 2s. a week from the parish. She had suffered much from privation, and, to his certain knowledge, she had not tasted animal food for the last 12 months.—The jury returned a ver dict of " Died from cholera." It was stated that in earlier life the witness, Brooks, had bad an extensive practice as a Chancery barrister ; but misfortune over took him, and he is now an inmate of St. George's Workhouse. SOCIETY FOR THE SUPPRESSION OF BURIALS IN CITIES AND TOWNS.—Last Tuesday evening a special meeting of this society was held at the society's rooms, Bridge-street, Blackiriars; Mr. G. A. Walker in the chair. The Chairman said he attributed the evils of intramural burials to non-legislation on the subject. Mote attention was paid to sewers than to the last rest ing-places of the dead, and that while some graves were closed, others were left open. Mr. Watt gave a frightful description of Spafields burial-ground, where 80,000 bodies had been buried in a space by no means commen surate with that number. Resolutions, pledging the society to renewed exertions to suppress intramural burials, were adopted; after which the meeting ad journed. REPRESENTATION OF WEST SURREY.—The Pro tectionists had a meeting, yesterday, at Epsom, when Mr. Evelyn addressed his supporters. He declared him self, although a decided Conservative, to be an advocate for the admission of Jews into Parliament. Mr. Edgell, the Liberal candidate, has issued an explanatory address to the electors. LIVERPOOL MUSICAL MEETING. WEDNESDAY.—The second grand miscellaneous concert took place last night, and was better attended than the first, although the hall was any thing bat full. The Liverpool public complain bitterly of the exclusive system adopted by the committee of the Philharmonic Society, who have placed the charge of admission to non-subscribers at so high a figure as one guinea. Without entering at present into the merits of the dispute, we must confess that this looks like a determination to restrain the middle and hum bler classes from enjoying the great musical treat which the festival offers. The population of Liver pool may be divided into three sections —the rich, the middling rich, and the poor. In the present case the rich have it all to themselves, the festival being con fined to the proprietors of the Philharmonic Concert Hall, the subscribers, and the press; since a guinea in these times for a musical entertainment, no matter hew attractive, is out of the power of - any but the affluent to give. The local press also appear to have .been grumbling about the scanty accommodation afforded them; and from these two sources united have .sprung up a feeling of hostility against the society, in which originated the stupid report of the' building being unsafe, and other insinua tions inimical to the well-doing of the festival. It is certain that had the spacious galleries have been thrown open to the public, at a reasonable price—say 10s. 6d. stalls, and ss. back seats—the hall would have been crammed at both morning and evening performances, the committee would have added a large sum to their fund, and the interest among all classes in favour of the society and its professed object of elevating the taste for, the art in Liverpool, would have been warm and unanimous. As it is, we think, a glorious opportunity'%4 _beeu_thrown away, or at least trifled with, of distinguishing this great and com mercial place among the musical towns of Europe. The present musical meeting was just the occasion for establishing a good feeling among all the in habitants of Liverpool, and for laying the seeds of the popularity and consequent prosperity of the so ciety. It is, even now, not too late. St. George "e -hall does not seem to be very rapidly approaching completion, and when the gigantic festival, which hes been so many years talked about, and is to exceed f n grandeur every festival that ever was given or con templated, takes place, a more suitable locale for the musical performances could hardly be desired than the magnificent concert hall of the Philharmonic Society. This festival must needs be a popular affair, from the enormous scale on which it is to be conducted; and if the Philharmonic Society hope to have a di recting hand in its management —a natural supposi tion—they must begin by conciliating the masses. In art there should be no divisions, and the wealthy, middle, and poorer classes of Liverpool may reason ably join hands and hearts together where the progress of music is at stake. i The programme of the second concert was more interesting than that of its predecessor. The addi tion of Grisi, Mario, Ernst, and Halle to the attrac- tions, enhanced both its variety and importance. The gloomy and magnificent overture to Fingal's Cade, one of Mendelssohn's most original inspirations, opened the concert, and was finely played by the band, Mr. Herrmann, the conductor, indicating the time very correctly. This was followed by the beah.- tiful quintet, " Sento oh Dio !" from Mozart's Cosi fan Tutte, very effectively executed, Mademoiselies Jetty Treffz and Corbari, Signori Bartolini, Poloniui, and Tagliafico being the vocalists. Herr Formes then sang the air "In diesen heir gen" (Qui s'degno), from Mozart's Zauberflote, which is well suited to his deep voice and impressive style. He was greatly received on his entry into the orchestra, and was obliged to re peat the air by general demand. The appearance 'of Mademoiselle Alboni was the signal for immense ap plause, which was redoubled at the end of the cavatina from Semiramide, " In si barbara." How expres sively she sings the slow movement, and how per fectly she executes the bravura passages of the allegro of this cavatina, has too often been told to need r - peating. Another great reception was awarded o Madame Grisi and Signor Marie, who, in the du - i tino from Don Pasquale, at once gained tlae suffra s of the audience in the form o f a unanimous enco . A like compliment was paid to Madame :Viardnt Garcia's " Ah, non giunge," Mario's " Adelaic4" (admirably accompanied on the piano by Mr. Bede diet), and Lablache's "Miei rampolli," all first• rate performances. Madame Viardot repeated the cab,...1-.': a of her air, Mario substituted the " Ange d'amou " from the Favourite, and Lablache went through t e whole of his air again ' much to the satisfaction of t e audience, who, joined by all the ladies and gentlem n i of the chorus, applauded the great basso with unini - gated good-will. Vivier repeated his success of t e preceding night, and by the expressive manner which he played Benedict's graceful ballad, " Scen of my youth," obtained an encore in which the enti s e room took part. Disappointment was expressed the this accomplished performer did not introduce a cor - certo, or a composition of length and importan . which would have admitted of his introducing in a more developed form some of those original effec which have made the horn a new instrument in h 6 hands. Ernst played his fantasia on airs from 1 Pirala, a composition in which all the modern di - culties of the violin seem to be brought together. B t even more than with his wonderful execution, whi b sets mechanical puzzles at defiance, were the audien a charmed by the exquisite sentiment with which e sang, played is not the word, the " Tu Vedrai," o e of the most passionate of the tender melodies f Bellini. Owing to an accident happening to one f the strings Ernst was obliged to omit the last vari - tion of the fantasia, to the great disappointment f the audience, who nevertheless applauded the gre t violinist with enthusiasm as he left the orchestra. duet by Mr. Benedict, " Winter's Mirth," a plaint' e and characteristic melody, excellently sung by t e Misses Williams, who introduced an elaborate caden e a due voce at the end, was one of the interesting vo I features of the first part, which ended with the grac • ful chorus " Who would stay ?" from Webe a Oberon. ... z . , The second part began with the overture to Gu - laume Tell, capitally played ; the band took t C, matter out of the hands of the co n d uc tor, an d execut d the final movement with peril ous ra pidi ty , arr i v i ng t' the end, however, without an accid en t. Th e enco was general—an honour, by the wa y, w hi c h nev r fails to attend an effective perf ormance o f this spat - ling instrumental prelude, M a d ame G r i s i' s caea ti a "In l'adia," from Donizetti' s T orq u a t o T osso , Uri - liantly vocalized, was, of course, loudly applauded. Charles Halle was announced to play t±e first concer o of Mendelssohn, and a great treat was anticipat d from so fine a work executed by so accomplished a pianist ; but, on touchlng the keys the pianoforte w s found to be nrarly half a tone lower than t e orchestra. T? attempt the concerto under there ci - cumslre. - :,zes was out of the question. Not altogeth r to disappoint tie audience, however, M. Halle lt down to the instrument and played two of t e Leider Wine Worte of Mendelssohn, the Tolkslied n A minor, and the Spring song, in A major, with th t intelligence and mechanical perfection for whi his talent is remarkable. This in some measu compensated _for the loss of the concerto, and . Halle retired amidst general applause. Among t e vocal morceaux in the second part the duet of Ninetto and Pippo, " Deh pensa," from _La Gazza Ladra, sunk with great feeling and unaffected purity of style by Mademoiselle Corbari and her sister, Mademoiselle L. Corbari, deserves special notice. The voices of tlie two young ladies mix together very gratefully. Thsit of Mademoiselle L. Corbari is a rich and powerf4l contralto, with which assiduous cultivation an d well directed study may do great things. The duet w s warmly applauded. Mademoiselle Jetty Treffz ha one solo duripg th e evening, but this was h er popul Liebeslied, with the " 'Prep,,,, rep, trep, t re _ r refrai, which met with the sam e rece p tio n here as it ha y s everywhere else, and was unanimously re•demandeci. The duet from the Gazza Ladra," Sappi the un rio, , ' by Grisi and Alboni, was, of course, a great point or interest ; it was sung t© perfection, and created the usual enthusiasm. Madame Viardot gave two of her delicious Spanish national airs, accompanying herself on the pianoforte. These bagatelles are equally characteristic and striking , and the piquant and natural humour with which Madame Viardot invests them renders their attraction irresistible. It is hardly necessary to say that the " In segreto," from Lucrezia, which Alboni sings in such dashing and bril liant style,:produced a furore, or that the Lesson duet of Fioravanti, " Con pazienza sopporti amo e lost none of its fun and spirit in the hands of such executants as Grisi and Lablache. The terzetto (the slow movement of the grand trio) from Guillaume Tell, by Mario, Tagliafico, and Lablache was also a very fine performance. Mario's voice in the tenor solos told with thrilling effect. The concert ended with a beautiful chorus, or rather part song, to use the composer's expression, of Mendelssohn's, " When the West with evening glows, and Weber's splendid overture, the Ruler of the Spirits, both of which were executed in such a manner as to leave room for nothing to censnre. The fault of this concert, as of the first, was its inordinate length. Again midnight had long passed before the last overture was over. The system is radically bad; it fatigues the artists and palls upon the taste of the audience, who w ou ld be much more substantially gratified with at least an hour loss of music. To-night the third and most attractive concert of the series will be given. Ernst is to play his Rondo Papageno ; Madame Viardot will sing in a selection from the Prophete ; Grisi and Mario in a selection from the Huguenots, and all the principal artists will appear. Mr. Benedict, on this occasion, is to hold the conductor's baton. HUNGARY AND AUSTRIA. The following memorial, drawn up by Lord Fitzwilliam, was in course of signature when the late disastrous intelligence arrived from Hungary ; it would probably otherwise, in addition to the names of those with whom it originated, have had appended to it the signatures of many other Peers and Members of Parliament : " TO LORD JOHN RUSSELL, FIRST COMMISSIONER CF THE TREASURY, AND THE VISCOUNT PALMERSTON, PRINCI- PAL SECRETARY OF STATE FOR FOREIGN AFFAIRS. The undersigned (being Peers or Members of the House of Commons) desire to express to your Lord ships, and through your Lordships to the rest of her Majesty's confidential servants, the deep interest which they take in the contest which is new carried on between the Hungarian nation and the Emperor of Austria. It is their anxious wish to see this contest speedily termi nated in the manner which they conceive most conducive to the interests of the Austrian empire —viz., by the recognition of the just demands of Hungary, the most important of the hereditary dominions of the House of Hapsburg. " The undersigned are of opinion that it is both the interest and the duty of England to contribute, by every legitimate means, to the tranquillity of Hungary. They are of opinion, however, that this object, so desirable, ' cannot be obtained so as to ensure its permanence, un less the terms on which it is accomplished be consistent with the ancient laws and constitution of the country. " While so many of the nations of Europe have en gaged in revolutionary movements, and have embarked in schemes of doubtful policy, and of still more doubt ful success, it is gratifying to the undersigned to be able to assure your Lordships that the Hungarians demand nothing but the recognition of ancient rights and the stability and integrity of their ancient Constitution. To your Lordships it cannot be unknown that that consti tution bears a striking resemblance to that of our own country. King, Lords, and Commons are as vital parts of the Hungarian as of the British Constitution. So far, therefore, from the undersigned being animated by a revolutionary spirit, or being actuated by principles inconsistent with regular government and with the esta blished order of things, they beg to assure your Lord ships that it is with the view of maintaining regular government, and of perpetuating institutions which, though occasionally modified, have had an unbroken series of existence since the foundation of the Hunga rian Monarchy, that they venture to invoke the inter ference of the British Governme t " They have witnessed with great alarm the applica tion of the Austrian Government for the assistance of Russia. They conceive that this assistance will not be granted upon terms consistent with the integrity of the existing dominions of the House of Austria; their alarm, however, is not confined to the apprehension that some encroachments may he made upon the present boundary between the two empires. They apprehend that a powerful intervention on the part of Russia, a state in which the existence of a constitution is not acknow ledged, cannot be effected without danger to the free in stitutions of the country in which it is invited to inter fere. They conceive that the military occupation of Hungary by Russia must be necessarily subversive (for the time) of all regular government, and they know not what terms affecting the internal condition of the coun try may be ultimately imposed by a Power whose in tervention has been invited for the express purpose of controlling a people which is struggling for the preser vation of long-established and undisputed rights. The undersigned conceive that the essential character of Russian intervention must be to disregard rights which the spirit of the Government of that empire does not recognise; and that, if effectual, the intervention must lead to the subversion of the ancient constitution of Hungary, must destroy her prosperity, and endanger the security of states in whose welfare and independence England is deeply interested. " - It is to avoid this fatal result that the undersigned feel impelled to intreat her Majesty's Government to use such means as shall seem to them most effectual for pro ducing a reconciliation between the Emper6r of Austria and the people of Hungary, on the basis of those rights which the Hungarians have never ceased to demand, and the firmest attachment to which has hitherto been found not only to be compatible with, but to promote the - host fervent loyalty to the House of Hapsburg, and has enabled them to render such services in the hour of danger as never have emanated from the spirit of a sub dued or servile people.

THE DOWNFALL OF HUNGARY. (From the Dumfries Standard.) - A MAGYAR BALLAD. By Duna's banks where stately Pesth looks o'er its waters blue, An anxious maiden sate and sang of her lover bold and true ; Her heart was warm, her hopes were strong, yet boding fears the while Came o'er her spirit like a cloud, and veil'd its sunny smile ; For Alfred fought for fatherland, amid the crowds that bore, mag.yar Above the battle's blo o d an d cras h th e s t an d ar d o f For home, for freedom, and for her the gallant warrior fought ; " And when our country's free," she sang, " the only prize he sought Is this poor hand—would he were here to claim it for his own, And chase away those gloomy thoughts across my spirit thrown ! Our cause e rnelho rdes is strong whichan d holy , fi g h y et ag e tI cannotagainst my help lovebuta dr n c d e The Hungary. " I know he cannot leave the war, while on his native plains One German churl or Cossack slave their virgin verdure stain ; That gras, alas I has oft been dyed ,with streams of patriot blood, But undisgraced the land remains, its children unsubdued ; My Alfred fights to keep it free—he must not quit the field Till Paskewitch and fierce Hay nau before our Georgey yield. I could not wed a craven night, even though he wore a crown And pleaded love for me, who should his country's cause disown, Ah no! while war's wild thunders rage, and maidens hearts alarm, My hero's pulse must beat unquailed, and fight unfoiled his arm. But yet—but yet he lingers long! any voice has lost its glee, And I cannot help . but weep the while for my love and Hungary. But hush those fears; since yester&ght the kindly vorspann brought Glad tidings from the patriot camp—how Alfred's stout arm smote A standard-bearer in the field, and his black eagle tore; And all our men like lions fought, till the fee were stricken sore. Now by our cause so good and true, and great St. Ste phen's crown, And by the olden Magyar flag, that ne'er was beaten down, And by the love I bear to him, and the faith I owe to Heaven, I will not mourn his absence more, lest the sin be un forgiven. I grudge him not; his country's claim is stronger far then mine; Upon its altar victim-vowed, ere pledged at true-love shrine, His fate is with our freedom bound—he fights for home and me, And my hope is strong that he'll soon return from the wars of Hungary." The lady's voice and fears were hush'd, her fainting heart grew strong, But as she rose to leave the banks whose stream had heard her song, It heard, woes me! another voice—'twas ono of hopeless wail, And the patriot glow fled from her cheek till it turn'd as lily pale: " The fortunes of the war have changed--thrice beaten in the field, By famine press'd, by hope betray'd, our men were forced to yield ; The fell invaders sweep the land, and raise the exulting boast, O'er captive Georgey, Kossuth fled, and Magyar freedom lost I " " But stay," the maiden said, " canst thou aught of my Alfred tell? ire (lied in harness, like a knight, for freedom fighting well."— Proud youth! for thy poor country sla in, more dear to me ! If in death And the damsel died with a smile for him and a sigh for Hungary. Dumfries, August 28. DEATH OF THE COUNTESS OF NESSELRODE.—A letter from Salzburg, dated 20th instant, announces the sudden death (by apoplexy) of the Countess of Nessel rode, wife of the Russian Arch Chancellor. [PRICE eSD. OVERLAND MAIL INDIA. We have received intelligence, by the Overland Mail, from India. The dates are—Bombay, July 25 ; Calcutta, July 14. The following is the summary of the Bombay Times : " Though news via Madras from Bombay, to the 3d July, w ill h ave reached home a fortnight before this arrives, w e s h a ll f ollow our usual custom of in cluding, in our monsoon summaries, the events that have occurred since the preceding dispatch a month ago. The :space, even thus stretched out, scarcely supplies public events enough to provide matter for a summary. Moolraj having been found guilty of the murder of Messrs. Anderson and Agnew, and of complicity before and after the fact, was sentenced to death, but recommended to mercy as the victim of circumstances. The punishment has been commuted to imprisonment for life in Chunar fort. The advocates both for the prosecution and defence are remarkable for the eminent ability they display, especially the latter, which is mos t e l oquent. The rumours of misunderstandings with Ghoolab Singh , and of an advance into Cashm eer prove groundless ; so also have the assertions that the S e ikh s were unwilling to join our service—they are entering rapidly. It ap pears from the Parliamentary papers that Lord Hardinge had estimated the drain the conquest of the Punjaub would occasion on our finances beyond the returns it would yield, at half a million a year : our frontier was believed by former Commanders. in -Chief, Sir H. Fane, in particular, very greatly de teriorated. The state of the affairs of the Benares bank has now been fully disciosed ; the assets, it is said, will be sufficient to meet the claims of creditors, but the shareholders will lose everything, their whole capital is gone; the directors were the chief borrowers. One of these, Colonel Pew, of the Bengal army—a man w h o m i g ht a t one time have retired from the service on 10,0001. a year—has just filed his schedule in the Court of Bankruptcy, his debts amounting to 260,0001. in curred entirely by speculation. The scandals trans actions such as these occasion are thrown into the shade by instances of monstrous gambling in the army, under the most discreditable circumstances, that have come to light—the two showing how greatly a strong and firm hand is wanted to weed out offenders, or keep within bounds indulgences which tend so grievously to lead astray. The Governor- General ar.d late and present Commanders-in-Chief are solacing themselves during the hot season in their cool retreat at Simla, far up among the hills. On the 22d and 23d of June a severe gale visited the upper part of the Bay of Bengal, and was felt all over India, the barometer sinking at Bombay and Madras nearly as low as at Calcutta. Three vessels were disabled or lost ; the Cabrass grounded and went to pieces—the Victoria was wrecked, a number of lives having on both occasions been lost. The influence of the storm was felt all over India ; the barometer at Madras, Hoshungabad, Bombay, and Kurrachee, and we presume at Aden, falling simultaneously with that at Calcutta. The Bishop of Calcutta had been suffer ing severely from sickness. At Bombay the rains are advancing favourably, well up to 50 inches having fallen since the 3d of June. Much astonishment has been created by the refusal of the Board of Con trol to allow Captain Ross, late master-attendant, the highest pension of his rank. He has for fifty years been almost continually employed the scientific department of the service ep he bears a name as an hydrographer second onlysto that of Horsburgh; and his Charts and surveys have-be he means of saving numberless lives and unconnAti fortunes.' Instead of remaining master-attendant on the full emolu ments of his office while the duties were discharged by a deputy, he retired as he found the infirmities `Of years advancing, and has been requited with a salary less than that of the youngest boy civilian. Sir W. Gomm is still at Calcutta ; the accounts given of the nature of his appointment are conflicting. According to one of these he was directed to proceed to India as Lieutenant General on the staff, with the view of taking command in the Punjaub, and getting rid of Lord Gough. This mode of superseding the late Commander in-Chief would have been one of the -'nst direct and unpleasant that could have been imagined. According to another account, he landed with the commission of Commander-in-Chief from the Queen in his pocket, and was assured that he would find that of the Court of Directors awaiting him; in place of this, he found Sir C. Napier in his room. However the matter may chance to stand, it is clear that the amount of prevarication which has occurred on the subject in Parliament is enormous. Hopes are enter tained that a company's officer—Sir George Pollock or Sir 'Walter Gilbert—may obtain the command at Bombay. Sir W. Gomm and Sir Joseph Thackwell are spoken of. The Governor and Commander-in- Chief of Bombay are in Deccan. Sir Henry Pottin ger is at Madras, Sir George Berkeley at Bangalore. The Svigor and Nerbudda territories have been made over to the charge of the Madras army, though the matter has not as yet been definitively arranged." COMMERCIAL IN TELLIGENCE. CALCUTTA, JULY 14.—The Bombay express of the second English mail of May reached town during the night of Saturday last, the 7th inst., putting us in pos session of London dates up to the 24th of that month. Expectation was on tiptoe, and various speculations were hazarded as to the probable character of the advices ex pected, and, while only a few indulged the hope of fa vourable news and accounts of an improving market, by far the majority, looking with apprehension to the threatening aspect of the political horizon of continental Europe, could not wholly divest themselves of fears as to the detrimental influence the disturbed state of politics was calculated to exercise o❑ the home trade. The an ticipations of the former have been realised, and the mail biings us news of improving markets; but at the same time, the advices contain little calculated to dissipate the fears of the latter as to the ultimate result of the storm that is devastating Europe. To do, however, with things as they are, it is gratifying to think that England has as yet continued clear of the vortex of the storm; peace and quiet reigned, money and credit continued easy, and the improvement in the produce market was pro gressive. - The indigo sales had closed with a satisfactory result, showing an advance of 2d. to 3d. per lb. Of 5,465 chests sold, about 4,465 were taken for export, and the remainder for home consumption. Sugars had improved both in demand and value, latter sales having been effected ' grainy white Cossipore, 4715.; fine grainy white, 475. to 485.; mid. and good, 445. to 465.; damp and washed, 445. to 455.; fine white Benares, 42i5.; mid. and good,' 40s. to 4 0 5.; low, 3945.; good soft brown, 30s. to 345. per cwt. Rice was dull, but value continued unaltered. Saltpetre was also very dull, and scarcely any business was doing in the article. Fine grey, 2ilbs. ret'r., was at 295.; good, 3lbs. to 3ilbs., at 285.; unrefracted, 28s. Linseed was selling at 38s. to 41s. In E. I. Rum little was doing, is. 3d. were the quotations. The jute market was firmer, but no advance was looked for in prices, in consequence of large imports. Considerable artivals of hemp were also expected. Jute was quoted, good ord. to mid., 131. to 141. 158.; good, 15/. 10s. Ma nilla hemp was in improved demand, and prices had ad vanced 20s. per ton. Auction sales of mid. were 341.; ord., 291. ss. to 291. 103. The week has been an active one in the export divi sion of our business, having received an accession of life and spirit by remitters having more generally sought the medium of produce for their remittances home. In in digo a little business has been done at extreme former rates, confined to natives; these sales clear the market. Sugars, after being in brisk and active demand for some time, have, within the past day or two, somewhat slackened in demand as well as value. Saltpetre retains its position, and the tone of the market shows consider able firmness. In rice we have had a moderate scale of operations, and as freights have a disposition to advance, transactions in table will doubtless fall away. Raw silk has been moderately placed since the mail came to hand, although there existed a good demand previously. In Cossimbazar corahs a pretty fair amount of sales is re ported, at a decliue, however, in value. Safflower has continued to engage attention, and prices are without any material alteration: sales have freely taken pla c e. In jute we have no operations to record, the m a rk et last being bare of desirable shipping qualities. Th advises are not favourable. In hides a s g t f oo d busi ness has been done, at rather less fr rates. Inquiry remains good. Linseed has asNoernthgagAedmebreitctaenr attention both for the British B h o w an advance. Mustard markets, an. prices. flood ll requis ition i for the home seed has likewise befnest.n has been placed to a market, atlull generally, S h ell at last . week's rates; and lac very fair extent g dye might have been taken ofT to a larger extent but for the scantiness of . supplies. In ginger rather less busi ness; as been doing, confined to the Americans. In . articles of produce we have reported:—Buffalo minor horns, 250 mds., at Co.'s Rs. 4.10 to 4-12 per tad. Madras goat skin, 3 ,700 pieces, at 28 p er 10 0; slaugh tered green cow hides, 1,600 pieces, at Co.'s Rs. 28 per corge; green and dry ditto, at 23 r er corge; Patna blankets, 600 pieces, at 13.4 per corge ; castor oil, 10 mds., at 13.8 per md.; Cuttack Cowrie shell, 200 mds., at 11-14 per Ind. In produce of China and the eastward we have had about an average Ecale of business. Block tin shows improvement, and has been freely placed. The foluwing are reported sales:—Pacbuck, 300 mds. at Co.'s Rs. 6 8 per b. md.; block tin, 330 mds. at Co.'s Rs. 27.12 to 27-12-3; cloves, 23 bags, at 0-9-6 p. f. seer; black pepper, 630 bags, at 7-12 p. f. md.; gambier, 200 mak, at 2-7-6 p. f. md.; cochineal, 30 mds. ' at 6 5; ele phants' teeth, 3i mds., at 170 to 180 p. br. sad., and Singapore gold dust, 192 sa. wt., Sa. Ra. 13-6 per sa. wt. TUE IMPORT MARILET.—The favourable features we were enabled to report under this head have continued, and the week has been one of more activity than the preceding. Operations in cotton piece goods have been on a very satisfactory scale, and generally- at steady prices. Mule tNist has likewise kept the im provement, and operations have beer. neereee. The same may be said of coloured yarns. In the metal market there is 'hardly any alteration ; sales have been on the usual scale. Details will be found under the re spective heads further down. THE MONEY MARKET.—WhiIe from time to time we are enabled to report changes, sometimes in one dine- Lion, sttmetimes in another, under every other head, this ' marker continues to wear the same unchanging features which have long characterised it. Supplies are abundant ; channels of investment few. The v a l ue o f G overnment securitie - s:is well maintained. The Bank of Beegal has declared a "dividend at the rate of 6 per cent. per annum on its operations fur the past six months to close of June. While such:ls the reselt of the working of a bank pos sessed of exclusive advantages, the returns, ostensibly more handsome of other banks, without equal advan tages, cannot but excite suspicion end doubts as to their real position, even after allowance is made for the cramp ing effect of the rigid rules hick have guided the operations of 'the former. Bank shares, since the de claration of the 6 per cent. dividend, have undergone a decline, and quotations are at present nominal. Shares of other joint-stock banks it is impossible to quote cor rectly. Exchange—Operations in exchange have been on a very moderate scale, and produce has been more gene rally availed of for the purpose of remittance. Our quo tations for the first class document bills are 14 101 i to Is lOid per rupee at 6 months' sight. Freights—Since our last the rates of homeward freightage have fluctuated, aed at present show no ma terial alteration from our last week's figures. The ten dency is upward, notwithstanding the numerous arrivals of the past few days. The market is firm, and con signees aro looking for higher rates. Indigo—Some little business has been done by native dealers at full rates, and we expect the last remaining lot has been pla•ed. BaMBAY, JULY 24.—Our money market continues extremely easy, and capitalists have difficulty in finding profitable ,means of investment. We expect, however, as the season advances, to see money less plentiful.—ln Bank Shares there has been very little doing at the quo tations given elsewhere. The Bombay and Commercial Banks have just declared a dividend at the rate of 6 per cent. per annum. Piece Goods—A very considerable amount of busi ness in piece goods has been effected during the month, and the stocks of grey tnadapollams, shirtings, and jac conets, are therefore just now very small; which is also the case as regards bleached jacconets and shirtings. In moat cases previous prices were obtained; a slight de cline having, however, been experienced on that for grt y tuadapollams of the coarser makes. A brisk demand exists for grey jacconets, and forty and forty-five inch shirtings, up to the middling qualities, while for the lower kinds of the latter a reduction in price to a small amount has taken place. Coarse madapollams continue depressed, and little sought after, while for the middling sorts a moderate inquiry is made. For the better kinds a considerable demand again exists. Bleached twilled cloth, shirtings, and jacconets are readily saleable, at good prices, and are in demand. A few lots of domes tics and longcloths in the grey have been disposed of. The stocks of nearly all kinds of grey and bleached goods are very low, as are also those of dyed goods. Prints, Turkey red, are in a little better inquiry than formerly. Twill is scarcely inquired after; while for plain cloth the demand is active at advanced prices, especially 28 yard pieces of 23 inch width. Fancy goods remain as at last report. No transaction in them have been reported during the month. Cotton Yarn—For nearly all descriptions of cotton yarn a good demand has existed, but without any material change in price for No. 20 and 30 water, and 30, 50, and 60 mule, the former of which has slightly improved, while the latter has somewhat receded. No. 40 mule has advanced in price, while No. 20 remains uninquired after. Dyed Yarn—Turkey red is extremely dull of sale, while orange is in demand. Ball Thread-3,0001b. Nos. 20 to 60, have been dis posed of at 13% per pound. Woollens—No business in any kind of woollen cloths has been reported. Stocks continue light. The scarcity of flannels of all descriptions continues. Metals—Considerable sales in copper and iron have been made during the month, and the demand for all kinds is active. A sale of speller has taken place at Rs. 11 per cwt., at which holders are unwilling to sell. Of tin plates the market is bare. Red Lead—Of this article 200 cwt. have been sold at Rs. 15 per cwt. White Lead 100 cw•t. have been sold at Rs. 12k per cwt. Cochineal--3,6001b5. at Ro. 2.11 i annas, and 5,5001b3. at Rs. 2-104 annas per lb., have been sold since our I.tst. Large Stocks exist in the market. Crown Glass-700 boxes of sizes varying from 6 by 4 to 24 by 20, have been sold at Rs. 10} per 100 feet ; and 300 ditto, 4 by 6 to 6 by 8, at Rs. 9. Lemetta —Eight cases Lenietta, half gold and half silver, have been disposed of at Rs. 2-14 annas per eorge.. Marine Stores—Spirits of turpentine and oil of lin seed are in demand. Paints and cordage dull. Of can vas, bleached and unbleached, there is little at market, and they are in demand. Saffron—No sales have been reported in this article, which is in request, the stock in the place being com paratively small. Spirits—But little inquiry has been made for brandy, and the demand for gin has been limited. Beer--The only sales we have heard of are-40 hhds. Allsopp's, at rs. 621, and 100 Bass's, at rs. 55, which we quote as the rates of the day. Exports—Cotton Wool—As will be seen by the list give❑ below, extensive sales have been made in this staple since the 24th ult. The prices realist d have been in general lower by from rs. 2 to 3 than those obtained last month ; and it is expected they will recede still further, owing to the unfavourable accounts received from China a few days since of the market there for this article. Opium—Owing to the favourable prespects of a good crop next season in Malwa, and the depressing accounts last to band from China of the price there for the drug, the market has here become dull. Previous to Saturday last it had been steady throughout the mouth. The stock now in Bombay amounts to upwards of 2,000 chests. Our quotations of 1,375 rs. to 1,425 rs. per chest is merely nominal, as we have not lately heard of any sales. Freights—Rafes of freight have been very steady during the past fortnight, and engagements have beta made to Liverpool at 31. ss. to 31. 7s. 6d. To London we quote 3/. ss. to 31. Its. Gd. as the ruling rates; and . to China rs. 1 to rs. 12 per candy. Exchange—China Bills have been selling at Is. 100. to Is. 10 9-16 d. six months' sight, at the former of which rates the Oriental Bank has also been drawing. The rate has a downward tendency. COURT CIRCULAR.

PLYMOUTH GREAT WESTERN DOCKS.—The half yearly meeting of the Great Western Dock Conq any was held at Storehouse, on Monday, for the transaction of general business. Colonel Barris, of Radford, was in the chair. The docks have been stopped iu cone quence of the low state of the finances. It is now pro posed to carry a line of railway from the quay in the pier to the South Devon Railway, and to build a quay 300 feet long (in course of erection) by 50 feet deep, so as to accommodate from 30 to 35 vessels discharging at one time.
