Author of "Manual of Field Operations," &e. London Chapman and Hall, 193, Piccadilly. WOOLWICH, FEB. 27. The troop of Royal Horse Artillery and the field bat teries under orders for foreign service assembled in heavy marching order at half-past nine o'clock a.m., and pro ceeded to the common, where they were drawn up in line in open order for the commandant's inspection. Captain Romer's company, the 7th, proceeds to Sheerness to-morrow mornilT 'a relieve Capt. Dunlop's company, 7th battalion, atiu. the latter company pro ceeds to Eastbourne,_ to relieve Captain Turner's com pany, 11th battalion, under orders to return to head quarters. promptitude he set forth, but rumour was too quick for him,, and when he arrived at the village he found it deserted and the chief fled. So _nearly, however, had he accomplished his purpose, that the chief had no time to remove his family ; they all, therefore, fell into the hands of the captor. Captain Latter is dead, and we would deal lightly with his memory ; but if accounts be true; we fear that his passion overcame his prudence,-, And that the outlawed chief sustained at his hands disgrace and dishonour. This determined the Dacoit to take a deep and signal revenge, and he seems to have car ried out his schemes with that silent steadiness of purpose and modeiation that guarantee success, and prove to the world that when desperation urges and subtlety guides," *few, if any, are safe. Some time after the flight of the chief Captain Latter made the acquaintance of a Burmese.female, who is said to have been in the pay of the Dacoit, and from whom he learned the habits of the British officer. She kept up a correspondence all the time with her employer, and when . everything was ready and the time had come to strike the blow, the hired assassins, disguised in female attire, entered unquestioned into the officer's house, and guided by the information which she had furnished, found no difficulty in gaining his sleeping apartment and exe cuting their task. On these matters becomingknown at Prome, the authorities sent a strongdetachment secretly to the village to arrest the assassins, but although the village was surrounded in silence and without exciting the least alarm, yet not a soul was to be found in the house in which the mur derers were said to . have been. It is added that the chief who instigated the murder has fled to Ava whither the news of the assassinaiion reached, but it is not known with what effect; --It is rumoured that Pegu will immediately become a division of the Madras army, and that instructions to that effect have been issued by .Lord Dalhousie, as Sir J. Cheape's health will not admit of his longer re taining his command in Burmah. We regret to state that Lieut. Procter when out in camp at Prom e caught two Burmese, whom he considered' as spies and whom he forthwith hung. He then reported the matter, alleging that he had treated them accord ing 'to the laws of war. The''GovernOr-General has ordered him to be placed in close arrest, and an inquiry is to be made. , • „ . . • . • .... _,... .

Hyderabad (Deccan) represent a somewhat worse state of confusion and crime as prevailing in the Nizam's country than usual. Murders are of frequent occurrence in the city, and the worst of outrages are perpetrated in the districts. The Nizam appears to have lost his natural senses, and all his enactments emanate from those around him, even from his menials. His minister who has not ;yet attained his twenty-third. year, is under the influence of Mr. Dighton's Moonshee, at whose recommendation he was raised to the dignity of D . ewan. Durbars are seldom h e ld; as the Nizam is generally indisposed when the resident calls for one. During the latter years of General Fraser's tenure of office, it was supposed that the Arab mer cenaries were to be removed from the service and territories of the Nizam, and this kept them some what orderly, but since the hew Resident has ar rived, matters have taken a different course, and seizures of land have been made by the recently ap pointed deputy commissioners, which have caused much dangerous excitement. Some of the estates of the Ameers have been seized under the plea, that they form part of the districts ceded to the Honourable Company, and as the despoiled Ameers can get no redress, it is predicted that if the estates are not restored, the Ameers will unite to defend their own by arms, and that such a flame will be kindled in the Deccan as will take torrents of blood to quench. The field force which we mentioned as having been sent against the predatory Rohillas limier the command of Captain Orr, from .Hingolee; has 'been consider ably increased by the addition of a squadron of the 4t14 cavalry under Lieutenant Fraser from Bolarum, and a wing of infantry from the canton ment of Wurrungul under Captain Hare. With this addition to his force, we doubt not Captain Orr will give a good account of the marauders who have so long kept the country of the Nizam in hot water. Accounts from Nagpore represent Berar to he in a state of perfect tranquillity. The administration of the State is carried on by Mr. Mansell, the resident, pending the instructions of Government ; and the brigadier cothmanding, in order to be on the safe side, has decided on refusing leave of absence to any of his officers. The neigh bouring Rajahs are anxiously watching how affairs will be finally settled, as in the absorption of the Nagpore territory, they will see - but the fate that awaits their own dominions. Rumour also has it, that the deceased Rajah has willed the country to the East India Company. COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. (From the Calcutta Overland Ps-ice Current of Jan. 19.)

The business done in saltpetre has been very moderate without any alteration in• value. Rice con tinues to be freely exported to Great Britain and France. Raw silk remains dull without any further decline in value. The inquiry for corahs has improved. Sugar has been in active demand for Bombay and the Persian Gulf ; the discouraging accounts of the article from home, coupled with high prices and freights here, re strict exports to the British market; stocki are, how ever, so much reduced, that prices have advanced three to four annas per maund. The demand for - hides con tinues active. There has been lesi inquiry forlinseed, and rapeseed has been quite neglected. . Lac dye and shellac -reinain without much inquiry, and the few Bales lately, made show a reduction on former prices. • Jute is freely taken, at full previous value, while - supplies are still moderate. We have no improvement to reportiin our market for cotton goods, which has continued, dull, and now ex hibits indications of a declining tendency, while holders seem more anxious to realize. •The up-country dealers have not as yet displayed any increased animation. The demand for skirtings and jaconets has slackened, and these important fabrics find it difficult to maintain their quotations, Fancy goods, are also dull, and looking down. Very few of the' Affghan dealers have yet appeared, 'and it is evident that the trade by the route of ' the 'lndus has drawn many of them away from this quarter. The inquiry for mule twist has also abated, - ind sometOnntsliave -de .clined a little in value.. Turisfy.red yarn;; both British .14. nd German, are in fair demand. . Meta are much re duced in stocks, and holders firm for higher rates, which dealers are unwilling to give, not calculating on the pro bable consequences of the favourable alteration in the French tariff in regard to iron, &c.

Its perusal is particularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of their physical condition, and wile sere conscious of having hazarded the health, happiness, and privileged to which every human being is entitled. The Author has for a series of years been engaged in an extensive practice in the treatment of these delicate complaints, and has long directed attention to these enormous evils, from which no grade of society is free Their treatment has unfortunately teen too generally confided to the care of unualified and ignorant em pirics, who, with their pirated publication q s, assumed foreign names and titles, and pretended virtues of their patent nostrums, inflict great injury on those who are induced to place faith in their preten sions. The serious con,equences resulting from such mal-practice may easily be avoided, if sufferers from these maladies were to ascer tain if their medical adviser be a member of the London College of Physicians, i.urgeons, or Apothecaries' Hall, as any one possessing either of these qualifications usually appends it to his name, and thus the legally qualified practitioner can at once be distinguished.

His Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge goes out with the expeditionary force with the brevet rank of lieutenant general. The duke will command a division composed of two brigades—one of the Guards, and the other of regular infantry. The magnificent, screw-ship Golden Fleece, to convey the 4th Regiment to the East, will go out of the East India Docks this day, and proceed to Greenhithe to have her compasses adjusted, preparatory to running over to Leith to embark her troops. Never will troops he so well lodged as on board this ship. Being of small steam power, 300 horse to 2,500 tons, her capacity is immense, deck after deck is almost clear fore and aft, and half the regiment could almost be exercised in her splendid saloon. The hundreds of tons of stores when deposited are lost in her. This will be her first voyage, for which she has been prepared with a despatch by Mare and Co. unparalleled in these times. This ship could have easily taken a whole regiment of cavalry, horses, guns, and equipment ; as could her sister ship, the Jason, now being completed for the company's service. PORTSMOUTH, FEB. 27. The military preparations for embarking the Ist Bat talion of the Scots Fusilier Guards to-morrow are com plete. Two officers and 50 men with the camp equip ment, baggage, and officers' horses arrived this morning by railway, and at once embarked on board the screw troop-frigate Simoom, Capt. Smith, to make the neces sary arrangements for the reception of the battalion, which will arrive by about 10 o'clock. 50 volunteers from the 35th Foot left this garrison at 6 this morning, per rail for Preston, to join the 77th there, from Glas gow, and embark with them for the East, at Liverpool. The depot of the 11th Foot is ordered to move from Winchester to South Wales. PLYMOUTH, FEB. 27. The splendid screw steamship Himalaya was yesterday the object of general interest and attraction. She was moored about three quarters of a mile from the Citadel and Hoe. Upon these eminences, the weather being re markably fine, hundreds were assembled. Every boat was put in requisition, and in the afternoon a steam tug was kept constantly in motion, to enable the more curi ous to take a closer inspection. Among the numerous visitors were—Admiral Sir Wm. Parker, the newly-ap pointed Port-Admiral, and Flag-Lieut. Sir Jas. Dunbar. The Commander-in-Chief, Sir Harry Smith, paid an official visit in the morning, and inspected the second battalion of the Rifle brigade and the Sappers and Miners under Captain Hassard. The Couute , s of Mount Edgecumbe, Lady Ommanney, Colonel-Commander Codrington, Captains Gambier, Lowe, Kingcombe, and a numerous assemblage of ladies and gentlemen were present at the Victualling-yard to day to witness the embarkation of the 93d Regiment, which was safely conveyed in about two hours to the Himalaya, in the Sound, by the Confiance, Pike, and Jasper. As the-e steam-vessels left, the Highlanders were loudly cheered by the military on Stonehouse-point, and by the people who crowded every position com manding the passage. The Artillerymen' on St. Nicholas Island and the crews of ships joined in bidding the gal lant fellows a hearty farewell. The Himalaya will sail between 11 and 12 o'clock to-morrow morning. A te legraphic communication from the Admiralty was re ceived yesterday by Commodore-Superintendent Sey mour, who went to London by the evening mail train. SHEERNESS, FEB. 27. Instructions have been issued by the Admiralty to the Board of Ordnance to furnish a supply of the Minie rifled muskets to the various ships of the Baltic fleet, in order to render more effective the armament of the Marines serving on board, and in lieu of the ordinary muskets now used, which are to be returned into store. A limited number of the Mini 4 rifles are also to be issued for the use of the seamen. The Cressy, 80, screw steam-ship, Captain R. L. Warren, is completed in her fittings by the dockyard artisans, who for some time past have been at work on her until 10 p.m. her officers and crew, who during ROYAL MARINES. Her Majesty, by order in Council, dated January the 30th, 1554, has been pleased to direct that 1 lieutenant colonel, S divisional companies, and 2 artillery compa nies, be added to the present strength of the corps of Royal Marines. The redistribution of the corps is there fore as follows :-110 divisional companies, each com pany to consist of 1 captain, 2 subalterns, 5 serjeants, 5 corporals, 3 drummers, and 105 privates. Total, 121. Twelve artillery companies, each company consisting of 1 captain, 4 subalterns (either first or?second lieuten ants), 9 serjeants, 8 corporals, 5 bombardiers, 3 drum mers, and 146 gunners—making the whole number in the divisional companies, 13,310 ; artillery companies, 2,112 ; staff, 72. Total strength of the corps, 15,494. The 10 new companies thus ordered, will be attached to the several divisions as under :—Chatbam division, 103 and 107 ; Portsmouth division, 104 and 108; Ports mouth artillery companies, 11 and 12 ; Plymouth divi sion, 105 and 109 ; Woolwich division, 106 and 110. DUBLIN, FIB. 27. A Clonmel paper states, that recruiting is going on rapidly in every part of Tipperary, so that between sol diery and emigration " it will be pretty well 'arained of its population before the next harvest." ' ".Wexford (says a local journal) has never been a place noted for adding much to the numerical force of the army, 'and has been left to some representative of the Hon. East India Company's service, who was ready to gratify all having military tastes in and around the locality. Now, however, that the war trumpet has sounded its note, we have been visited by parties from the 39th and 50th Regiments, who have succeeded in picking up some dozens of recruits, including five or six' from the Union Workhouse." All this will be sad news for the Irish " war" party, who make no secret of their disgust at the military spirit evinced by the people since the recruiting sergeant commenced operations in downright earnest._ The 33d Regiment, now lying in the Royal Barracks, expect to embark in the course of the week for service in the East. On Saturday, the regimentwas presented with new colours by Lieutenant- General D'Oyly, the colonel-in-chief, who came specially from Loudon for the purpose. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. Commodore Seymour, superintendent of Devonport Dockyard, was summoned to the Admiralty on Sunday by electric telegraph, and he arrived ye4terday morning by mail train. It is said that he is to be Captain of the Baltic Fleet. Capt. Lyons (son of Sir Edmund, second in command of the Mediterranean), who was promoted from the com mand of the Helena, 16, for his gallant attack on the pirates.in the China seas, has been appointed to com mand the Miranda, 14, screw, at Sheerness.

REAR-ADMIRAL CORRY'S SQUADRON.—Every one here has been on the tiptoe of expectation looking for Rear- Admiral Corry's squadron. At 2 p.m. the Magicienne, Captain Thomas Fisher, was signalled to get up steam and go in search. The squadron was reported to have been seen coming up Channel last evening, and we fully expected to have seen them before noon this day. Vice-Admiral Sir Charles Napier, K.C.8., hoisted his flag, as Commander-in-Chief of the fleet for the Baltic (blue at the fore), at 3 o'clock this afternoon, on board the Princess Royal, 91, Captain Lord Clarence Pag et, at Spithead, where it will fly until taken by the Duke of Wellington, 131. Sir Charles exchanged salutes with the Port-Admiral, which he duly a4nowledged. The Princess Royal was inspected officially this morn ing by Vice-Admiral Sir Thomas Cochrane, after which she got up steam and stood away to the westward to look for Rear-Admiral Corry's squadron. She was re called from this service, and the Magicienne steam fri gate sent in lieu. The Princess Royal then proceeded to try her speed along the measured mile at Stoke's Bay, with Sir Charles Napier on board, having gone out to her in the Sprightly steam-tender, Acting-Master George Allen, commanding. , By the commissioning of eight more war steamers there seems every probability of the North Sea fleet being of far greater proportions than has been generally contemplated. One of them, the Gorgon, is ordered to be commissioned at this port by Commander Cumming. The Blenheim, 60, Captain the Hon. F. T. Pelham, steamed out of the fitting basin this morning, and tried her engines alongside the jetty, preparatory to going to her hulk to ship her crew and leaving for Spithead. The Cfesar, 91, Capt. Robb, hauled out of dock to the steam-basin this afternoon. She has topmasts fidded. The Melampus, Diligence, and;Tortoise, stop-ships, came into harbour this morning to land stores for the fleet. _ _ WOOLWICH, FEB. 27. The following promotions and appointments have taken place in the corps of Royal Marines, dated Feb. 24. Capt.

VIENNA.—The mercantile letters from Vienna state that the 15,000,0001. of bank-notes arranged to be taken out of circulation by the Government are to) be converted into 41 per cent. silver metallics—that As to say, the Government issue 15,000,0001. of 41 per cent. metallics at par ; but, as notes lose 25 per cent. against silver, the stock will virtually cost only 75. GREENWICH PENSIONERS ONCE MORE ALFLOAT.—It speaks well for the spirit -of the British tar that neither years nor infirmities can quench his ardour, nor extin guish that love of country which was his guide in early life. As an example of this, about a hundred of the in mates of Greenwich Hospital, nearly all over sixty years of age, and some exceeding the limit allotte,l to man, "threescore years and ten," volunteered to serve in her Majesty's vessels in the approaching war with Russia. And although the services of but few of them ha ve been accepted, we doubt not that a ship manned by the gal lant old fellows even now would be able to give a good account of the enemy. Several of the most ac tive will be discharged in a few days at their own request., to join her Majesty's ships and the coast-guard.—Kattioli , Mer cury. - BIIRMAH.

During his stay at Rangoon, he proceeded about six miles beyond Meeaday and fixed the boundary line,• causing pillars to be built on either side of the river, and he took formal possession of the country in the name of the Queen under a royal salute. The Deputy-Quartermaster-General of the Bengal army has been appointed a special deputy commissioner for the demarcation of the frontier line in Pegu. PERSIA, Intelligence has been received from Persia which seems to warrant the opinion that a "Bombay - column must shortly be "despatched - for service in that country. The Persian forces at Teheran had, it was said, marched en rinltc to the Russian provinces, and when they had proceeded nine marches they were recalled. On returning to Teheran, the British and Turkish agents were directed to quit, and their flags were lowered. The army in Teheran is kept ready to march at a moment's notice, and it appears that some important move is anticipated, although the precise nature of it has been kept secret. Some allege that a junction is to be formed at Orgunje with the Russian force already in that quarter, and that the whole will march to Candahar and Cabul ; others state that after being joined by the troops raised at Sheraz, the occupation of the sea board on the Meckran Coast would be effected, but the favourite opinion was that a descent on Bagdad and Bussorah was contemplated, to anticipate which a force of 11,000 men had been thrown into the latter place. Bushire was in a ferment, and it is even said, that Captain Kemball, our Resident, had been obliged to leave the town and was living on board one of the ships in the harbour. The Island of Karrack is represented as being fortified by the Per sian troops, and stores and munitions of war of all kinds had been conveyed there. The above intelligence is no doubt exaggerated, and we may look for authentic information by the H.C. steamer Auckland now hourly expected. In the meantime, the honourable company's cor vette Falkland is under orders to proceed to the Persian Gulf on the Ist proximo, and will be imme diately followed by the Augusta ; the latter vessel, it is understood, will convey important despatches from Government to the resident in Bushire. The intelligence that may be brought by the Auckland will doubtless determine the course the Government may deem proper to pursue. Persia is, as far as we are concerned, a contemptible foe; yet much expense and trouble must be necessarily incurred to bring. the Shah to his senses. It is greatly to be regretted that the two large steamers on the stocks in our dockyard are not now ready for sea, as they would each carry a whole regiment with followers, and a heavy park of artillery. But the delay is not to be attributed to the Bombay Government, the home authorities being to blame in the matter, by having given the contract for the engines to parties in Lon don who have not been hitherto able to fulfil their engagements, the company, in the meantime, re ceiving from the contractors demurrage at the rate of 101. per diem. At a juncture like the present, when we know not what an hour may bring forth, the loss to the state of the services of two such ves sels as the Assaye and Punjaub will be, if a war takes place, most seriously felt, and the hon. com pany may find that the amount of demurrage which they are said to have received, so far from being a saving, will ultimately prove a grievous loss. Much inconvenience, too, will be experienced in manning the fleet ; the Falkland proceeds to the Persian Gulf with but 18 European seamen on board, and yet she is a sloop of war, and may be engaged in active warlike operations. The difficulty in obtaining seamen is owing to the low rate of wages which the hon. company pay. A seaman can now in this port obtain in the merchant ser vice four or five pounds per month, while his pay in the company's marine amounts but to two. AFFGHANISTAN. We learn from Cabul that the Russian army had halted within two marches of Khiva, and was con structing cantonments. Four envoys had been sent to Dost Mahomed, soliciting him to proceed to the banks of the Oxus to receive the accredited agents of the Czar, whose object it was to form a quadruple alliance between the Czar, the Khan of Khiva, the Ruler of Cabul, and the King of Bok hara. Dost Mahomed consented to the alliance, but declined crossing the Oxus to meet the King of Bokhara, unless the Russian General would cross to the Affghan side of the river, and bring with him as a hosta g e the son of the Prime Minist er to the King of Bokhara. It is added that Dost Ma homed is willing to forget all the ills lie received at the King of Bokliara's hands, holding that the importance of the quadruple alliance calls for the burial of all private animosity-, , All this in telligence, must, we are of opinion, be received CUM grano ; yet it tends to show how wide spread are the machinations of Russian intrigue. As to anticipating an invasion of India, we believe that if such a mad project were attempted, it could only end in defeat and disaster to the invader. There are at present troops located on our north-west frontier sufficient to sweep India from the Hima layas to Cape Comorin ; and as for Persia, a force despatched to Bushire or Karrack will speedily bring Nusseer-ud-Deen to his senses. We learn from Umballa that a most brutal murder has been perpetrated in that station by a British officer, who is in confinement in consequence. Matters continue as usual at Lucknow ; the intemperance of the monarch suffers no diminution, and crime has of course increased. The latest accounts from MILITARY INTELLIGENCE.

We have no change to report in the state of the money market during thi past fortnight. Money is still easily obtainable, and there has been no advance in the rate of discounts. There' is, however, a growing uneasiness at the unsettled state of matters in Europe, and the proba bility of India being also. involved in hostilities on the frontier and in Persia in the event of a European war, and securities of all descriptions are in consequence ne glected as an investment. With the exception of Com mercial Bank shares, the quotation for which is rather higher, as it includes the bonus of 1 per cent. just de clared, and the right to an allotment of one new share for three old, we quote lower prices for all joint-stock shares ; and Government securities, which have been as low as 4 per cent. premium, have only rallied about 1 per cent., in consequence of large purchases, as a medium of remittance to Calcutta, on which place the exchange has advanced to 14 per cent. premium fo r bills at sig ht. Closing quotations are as under : Government Five per Cent. Loan of 1841-42, above No. 19,000, 1014 per cent. Ditto below, 103 per cent. Ditto Four per Cent. Loan, 1885-36, 1014 per cent. Ditto Four per Cent. Loan, 1842-43, 1014 per cent. Bank of Bombay sha res, 33 per cent. premium. Oriental Bank Corporation 90 per cent. premium. C om mercial Bank, 35 per cent premium. Agra Bank, 50 per cent. premium. cent. M e rcantile Bank, 24 per . remium. p Since the departure of the last mail the market has been unusually dull, and in piece goods no improvement has taken place, except in the lower descriptions of gray and bleached skirtings, Madapollams, and jaconets. Tonnage is very scarce, and freights have advanced materially, and 4/. per ton is now demanded for London and Liverpool ;. to China we may quote 20rs. to 22rs. per candy of cotton. Exchange on England is steady at 2s. Old to 2s. 0 15-16 d. for China credits at 6 months' sight, and 2s. 14d. for local document bills. On Calcutta, the rate is Bombay 1004 rs. ; per Calcutta 10Ors. at 2 months' sight ; and on China entirely nominal at 231 rs. to 232r5. per 100 dollars. CHINA. The following is from Hong Kong, dated the 11th of January :—Our advices from Shanghai are to the 30th ult., and by his Imperial French Ma jesty's steamer Cassini, arrived here on the 7th inst., we have dates to . the 3dinst. The Cassini's safe arrival at Woosung, from 'Nankin, we reported last mail, and the principal news of interest is her trip to that city and back. The Cassini arrived off Nankin on the 6th, and left on the 14th ult. A gun was fired at her before anchoring, said to be by accident, and a satisf a c tory apology was made by the insurgent authorities. This was the only inci dent in the voyage. His Excellency the I,Prencb. Minister, M. Bourbillon, it appears, could not ob tain an audience with the kings, but had a private int etweriththePrimeginisterof" Pae-pingsvang, said to be of equal rank with the kii tgs. M. Bour billon met with perfect civility, but v pith great cold ness and hauteur. The accounts cone Irm those first brought by her Majesty's steamer Hern4 es. The leader of the rebels seems to exercise unbount led influence over his adherents, and enforces his Laws with un sparing severity. Of all the immense population, reported at 480,000 women and 600,000 men, no one was observed smoking even Chinese tobacco, and it appears true about theiz having everything in common. The troops were ;numerous, but very ill armed, the best men being in the north. They stated that they had news from Pekin that, tire gates of that city were invested by their adherents, and when it is taken they were likdy to proceed to Shanghai. There is a report that the insurgents had cap tured a city north of Pekin, which looks as if their object was to prevent the mperor's esc. tike. There is no positive confirmation yet of the c.apture Tieu-tsin. The Pekia. Gazette of the 281 . '41 of Neer vember does not mention it, but the report is gene rally believed. , Shanghai was quiet,. and but little skirmliillinA going forward, and the Taoutae has sent away his Canton fleet. Some attempts had been man`L' to treat with the rebels in the city, but the messeni.:k 3 r, a mandarin, was decapitated. There was nearly being a serious rupture betwek the rebels and the French, the former havin g arrested and tortured two Chinese Catholic Chris tians, said to be spies. The affair, however; was fortunately arranged. The Russian Admiral left Shanghai on the 21th ult. in the screw steamer Vostock, to join_ his . frigate at Saddle Islands, and then to proceed. to Nagasaki. Our dates from Ningpo are to the 31st ult., whwn everything remained quiet in that neighbourhoosl- From Foo-chow-foo our advioeS' are to the 23 inst. The city was quiet, but the'vicinity infested by pirates, and her Majesty's brig Bittern was ordered out on a eruize after them. The Hastings with teas had sailed on the 26th ult., reported for Liverpool. The Anierican ship Howqua -was the only vessel in port. Our reports from Amoy of the 7th inst. mention that there were rumours of constant fighting taking place in the interior. There was some activity in cotton ; but trade otherwise was dull, and all were anxiously looking forward to what the Chinese New Year would brinc , forth, being so much disappointed in their expectations 'of a good business after the recapture of the city. Canton remains without disturbance, with whir) , appearance of the Chinese New Year's-day passing over quietly, and engagements being sa.tisfactorily met. Imports are unaltered, arid the business is not likely to be important till after the New-Year. Common congous are half a tael cheaper, but 'the better qualities are firm. The export to Great Britain is still in excess of last year to the same time ; but that to the United States and the Con tinent shows a decrease. Exchange, ss. ld. ss. 2d. for English bills ; Company's bills, 243 r. 241 r. Sycee silver, 3 per cent. discount ; bar silver, 2.5 discount ; gold, $2O 90 per tael ; Mexi can dollars, 4.40 discount ; this coin now cireu laths more freely. Freights to England, 41. 10s. Imports were unsaleable at Shanghai. Tea and silk shipments were going on, and were a little cheaper. The export of the latter from Shanghai was 35,000 bales. Exchange for bills on England, 6s. 2.1. for Shanghai dollars ;. Company's • bi4s, 300 r. 290 r. Freights, 7/. to Si., owing to scarcity of ships. The United States' squadron, under Commodore- Perry, is still here, but will leave shortly, we hear, for Japan. A second detachment of the Ceylon Rifles leave in the mail steamer to-day. The Enterprise has been taken- up for the con veyance to England of the corps of the Sappers and. MinerS, whose relief lately arrived, and the inva lids of the 59th Regiment. The mail of the Bth of November arrived on the 4th inst., and we hourly look for the steamer with the 24th of November mail. Her Majesty's ship-Comus arrived from the Cape on the 29th ult. The Spanish steamer Jorge Juan is here,,waithlg the mail steamer's arrival, as the new Governor c'tf the Philippine Islands is exPected by her.

HONG KONG, JAN. 11.

Turkey opium, $370. Tea.—There has been a fair amount of business done during the fortnight, and for some descriptions at slightly easier rates. Of congou the settlements have been 36 chops at from 16 ts. to 25 ts. Latterly the arrivals of black tea have been small. About 90,000 packages of green tea have been received, of which 17,000 packages of young hyson have been taken at last year's rates, and 6,000 packages of hyson skin one tael under the prices that ruled last season. The estimated export to Great Britain still shows an excess on that of last year to the same time, but to the continent and United States there is a considerable falling of. Exchange on England, six months' sight bills, o pened . at ss. 3d., and closed at ss. 14d. to ss. 2d. ; on India, Company's bills done at 243 r. to 241 r. per $lOO.

From Shanghai our advices are to the 30th nit. In imports there had been very little done. Tea and silk were being sent forward. Tea.—The settlements of congou had been 18 cholla, at 9 to 14 taels; 10,000 packages of green tea were takes at a small reduction.

This enormous total does not include any quantities from the newly acquired ports on the Danube, and the shipments front the north of the empire were also considerable. The stocks of wheat remaining at the Black Sea ports on the Ist of January were nearly a million and a-half of qrs . ; and it is therefore esti mated that, adding the northern supply, Russia must last year have had available for el 4 portation nearly 7,000,000 qrs.
