The monsoon this season has been unusually pro tracted, the rains continuing nearly three weeks longer than ordinary e betwixt the sth and 6th of October, four inches fell in the course of sixteen hours. The fair season has now set in, and we shall probably not have a single shower for the next eight months. The expedition sent out for the destiuction of the villages on the Peshawur frontier appear to have finished their work successfully, and they have now returned tocamp. Overtures are being made it is said by the Amcor of Cabul to regain our friendship —the fatal error committed by him of invading the Punjaub in 1849 has destroyed our confidence in his judgment as well as in his influence amongst his own people, and half a century will not be suffi cient to restore us to the terms in which we stood with Affghanistan up to 1837, if such a thing should ever indeed be possible. A party of the Russians are said to have taken Kokan, a petty and bar barous principality on the borders of Bokhara. Whether they amount to ten, a hundred, or ten thousand does not appear, and the matter in no way concerns us. The reports of Russian intrigue and aggression obviously emanate from the Rus sians themselves—they increase their importance by alarming the timid and credulous—they gratify the appetite for the marvellous and obtain employ ment for the native politicals and spies who dis seminate them. No one would have greater cause than the Czar to deplore an advance of the .Rus sians upon India, which would dispel the delusion he wishes to maintain that we are vulnerable and that he could harm us. There have been consider able disturbances in the Nizam's country. About a thousand Rohillah mercenaries had been taken into the employment of a refractory chief, who sup ported by this force bid defiance to the orders of Government. Brigadier Mayne, with Capt. Abbott as Brigade Major, and a detachment of the Hydera bad Con tingent,consisting of 300 troopers of the 2nd Nizam's cavalry, two light field guns, two pieces of heavy ordnance, and 400 infantry, marched out from Aurungabad on the 20th to disperse the enemy. Captain Macintire commanded the cavalry, Captain Hare the infantry. The Rohillahs on hearing of their purposes took possession of a strong mud fort, with gates and bastions, at a place called Sailoor, and thither their assailants marched, a dis tance of forty-five miles, without halting. On ar riving, instant submission and surrender of their arms was demanded of the enemy ; this they de clined, on the plea that they were waiting for pay from their employer, on receiving which they would disperse. They were then informed that as they had been in arms against the Government, had re fused to obey orders, and committed acts of vio lence against the people, no alternative would be allowed them. Every effort having been in vain tried to avoid bloodshed in bringing them to terms, the field-pieces opened their fire, and this was re turned by matchlocks from within the fort, when as night approached it was found indis pensable to wait for the arrival of the heavy guns. Picquets were carefully set, and the villagers agreed that should the Rohillahs attempt to escape over night, the cottages should be set fire to in the direction in which they tied. About half-past 9, accordingly, Brigadier Mayne was informed that they were on the move, and immediately afterwards the nearest village was seen to be in flames. Mayne's force was immedi ately in motion. The brigade major, Captain Abbott, took command of some 20 troopers whom he found harassing the rear of the enemy, who were retiring rapidly and in excellent order. He twice cut his way through them and back again, till dis abled by a wound which severed the bone and ar tery of his bridle arm. The slaughter was very severe, and the dispersion complete. Every mem ber of the force seems to have behaved with the ut most gallantry and with all the humanity circum stances allowed, but these wretched cases of insur rection and slaughter must continue to bo of incessant occurrence so long as the Nizam's Go vernment is carried on as at present. The ceded districts are tranquil, and the resident, Mr. Bush by, proceeds early next month on a tour of inspec tion through them. Colonel Outram is about to be transferred from Aden to succeed Col. Sleemsu at Lucknow, one of the most lucrative and im portant appointments under the Bengal Govern ment ; and the officer who three years since was pronounced by Lord Falkland and his coun sellors so imprudent, intemperate, and ignorant of his duties as to bo undeserving of political employment, has within ten months had conferred on him by the hands of the Governor- General three of the most distinguished offices at his disposal—that of Resident at Baroda, at Aden, and in Oude. It is reported that the Governor- General intends to visit Madras and the Neilgher ries in December or January, and retie early in spring from an office he has administered so greatly to his own honour and the public advantage. It is said he will be succeeded by Lord Elgin, of whom the highest hopes aro entertained. Lord Harris has issued a second manifesto on the detection and suppression of torture which is admitted to be practised under the police at Madras, so that if those who moved in the matter in Parliament did not obtain a commission, they have, th roug h the vigour and imparti a lit y o f L or d Harris, not the less secured their ends ; so much for the denounce ment of these rumours as slanders. The sittings of the Sarawak Commission have closed. : Sir James Brooke has been fully and honourably acquitted of all the charges brought against him. His slan derers refused to appear as witnesses, and some of those who subscribed the petition confessed that they knew nothing as to the truth or falsehood of the statements contained in it. This bottle of smoke will cost the country some 10,0001. or 15,0001. It is now affirm e d th a t t h e Court ' s e d uca ti o nal de spatch, of whi c h so much has been ma d e both here and at ho me , i s li kely to prove a pure piece of claptrap to ca t c h popular applause, th e whole being stultifi e d b y t h e clause which j o b s th e o ffice of minister of p u bli c i nstruction into t h e h an d s of civilians, wh o w h a t ever their abilities an d excel lences, and they are many, are utterly disquali flied by the imp er f ect i ons of their early education and peculiariti es o f their subsequent occupa ti o n for the offic e . The Bengal appointment is said from the outset t o h ave been meant by the Home authorities for a son of Mr. B. Bayley, at present one of the I n di a H ouse directors, formerly acting Governor-General. Th e F r i en d of India, usually understood t o express the views of Governmen t, and apparently pavi ng the way for the Leadenhall street job, describes the functions of the new officer, who will receive from 2,0001. to 4,0001. a year, as simply that of register of suggestions for the use of Government and the transmitter of Govern ment instructions on the subject, a sinecure which any formalist of mediocrity could fill. We have on former occasions stated that there is no man belongi ng t o t h e services at present competent pro perly to dis c h arge th e d u ti es o f Mi n i s t er o f P u bli c Instruction. .any such arrangement as that appa rently in contemplation will stultify the whole scheme, and it is to the people of England alone we look for deliverance from the danger now im pending. Scores of men of the highest qualifica tions for the post may be had from home for the price proposed to be given to those rendered by circumstances inevitably unqualified. Let those who may think such jobbery as this impossible, remem ber that it is not yet three years since the Gover nor-General was snubbed by the Court of Directors for proposing to select postmasters on the ground of qualification, and paying them in proportion to their services. The Lords of Leadenhall-street in timated that such appointments as these should be restricted to members of the Civil Service receiving from 2,0001. to 4,0001. a year for professing to attempt that which they could not perform, and which men trained to the task would have per formedfpoarrtth of in the r r in ice dte — t s o e i a t l h r i n a p g e s r s w b i l e l a r b i n e g f d o found D se e to pe r f ec ti on a t ono -thi r d or one-fourth t offi c ry a e e m vra e l hr B ei a s l 2 ss . e no T do The e f g v n government just publish e d an intimation of an exhibition of s i manuf actured r e i n a Industrial Art AroofrdtAulcaattds from Madras next hat Calcutta hv e e presidency and ne i g hb our h oo d , to take place appears to be prospering, that proposed to be in part endowed at Bombay by Sir Jamsetjee Jcejeebhoy is under the consideration of a committeecommitteeexpectedto give in a report some years hence.

The Royal Albert is ordered to prepare to receive £OO troops on her arrival at Portsmouth, for which port she is to leave Sheerness to-morrow early. Her cabins are being fitted and furnished to receive Rear-Admiral Sir Edmund Lyons, G.C.8., who, on the arrival of this ship in the Black Sea, will shift his flag over from the Aga memnon. Mess traps, beds, bedding, &c., for the troops, are being drawn from the victualling stores. The Royal Albert is at present short of her complement of A.B.'s ; nearly 500 of these will be supplied to her at Portsmouth by draughts from the ships returned from the Baltic. 100 first and second-class boys were sent on board her yesterday from the Waterloo. A number of these boys are perfectly capable of doing duty as gunners and gunners' mates. We learn by electric telegraph from Plymouth that the screw steam-frigate Curacoa 30, Captain the Hon. F. F.

The office for the past thirty years has been con fined to members of the Civil Service, wholly unacquainted with English law, whose average tenure of office has during that period been considerably short of four years ; the blunders into which they otherwise might have fallen have for the most part been avoided through the intervention of the Court of Petty Sessions, the assessor of which was until of late a barris ter. This office was some months since abolished, when the parties now petitioning remonstrated against its abolition. The junior and third magis tracies have always been considered perquisites of the Governor to be conferred on any party not able to secure a livelihood by other means—they have never been held by any one possessed of the slightest legal knowledge or judicial experience ; and this is a fair specimen of the attention paid to the admi nistration of justice even in those places which are immediately under the eye of Europeans. If such things happen at the Presidency, the state of the districts may be conjectured. The deposits to the Western India Irrigation scheme are now being paid up, and should there be any defaulters, of which there is little prospect, the applications for shares in excess of the whole amount of the capi tal are more thon enough to make up the defi ciency. Government are understood to be most heartily in favour of the scheme. The Governor , General is at Calcutta, and Lord Harris at Madras. Our own Governor leaves Bombay for Mahablesh war on Monday afternoon, returning to the presi dency in the third week of November. The state of the money market remains unchanged, and the business in the general market is steady and pro mising. /?/ [PRICE SD.

On his re turn, ho was in possession of his usual health and activity, both of body and mind. He leaves for Cairo on the 9ch, at the head of 12,000 c,f his troops, and intends marching, if not the whole distance, at least that portion of the road from Kafr-Lais. From Cairo he will proceed to the upper country. The Barago is not to be completed for the present.

Its perusal is particularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of their physical condition, and who are conscious of having hazarded the health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is entitled. It is absolutely necessary thaiall men should know, that there are principles of personal management which cannot be violated without incurring grievor,s penalties, and when wisdom and regret succeed Vie heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how these penalties may be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed, and how the evil and its consequences may be avoided, and above all, that there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure. The Author has for a series of years been engaged in an extensive practice in the treatment of these delicate complaints, which have unfortunately been too generally confided to the care of ignorant mottles, who inflict great injury on those who are induced to place faith in their pretensions.

The Snake screw-steam despatch gun-boat, Lieutenant Commander M‘Killop, received her powder on board at Greenhithe on Wednesday, and a notice has been posted at Woolwich dockyard stating that she will call at De vonport to take out a mail for the Black Sea to-day, THE TRANSPORT SERVICE. The Peninsular and Oriental Company's steam-ship Candia, Captain Field, left Southampton on Wednesday night to embark French troops at Toulon. The Ripon will follow to-day or to-morrow. The Royal mail steamer Thames sailed from Southampton last evening, also for Toulon. The General Screw Company's steam-ship Indiana will be ready for sea about Tuesday next. All these ships are victualled for 42 days, and will carry from 5,000 to 6,000 men, all French. The hired steam-transport Brandon arrived at Ports mouth yesterday, to embark provisions and stores for the Crimea. No. 106 transport passed Woolwich yesterday, on her way to the Black Sea. The Canadian screw steamer Charity is being fitted at Birkenhead for the conveyance of troops to the Crimea. A large iron screw-steamer, the Brandon, Captain Jenkins, arrived at Portsmouth yesterday, and will re ceceive the following detachments on board : Officers. Serjeants. Ist Foot 4th Foot 23d Foot 38th Foot 20th Foot 46th Foot .... ..... 0 With two medical officers. The Brandon is almost a new vessel of vast length and very good accommodation. She coaled yesterday and will embark the troops today. The Admiralty steamer Echo went over to Cowes to receive some of the detach ments from the Isle of Wight. COURT-MARTIAL. A court-martial assembled Waterloo flag ship yesterday, at Sheerness, to try William Miller, a Royal Marine, on a charge of having stolen a purse, containing money, on the 31st of October, from the cabin of Mr. Rumble, chief engineer of the Royal Albert, the prisoner being at the time the servant of the chief engi neer of that ship. The Court were of opinion that the charge was fully proved, and, in consideration of the pri soner's long servitude (more than 17 years, with three good service distinguishing badges), the sentence was that he be deprived of his three good service stripes and be committed to the county gaol at Maidstone for three months, with hard labour. ASSISTANT ENGINEERS. Notice hasl;e7ngi;en, that a number of assistant-engi neers will shortly be required to enter the Royal Navy, and every encouragement will be given to young men qualified for that service, who may enter at Woolwich, from the factory or from private establishments. FALMOUTH, Nov. 16. —Her Majesty's frigate Meander, Captain Daillie, bound for Lisbon, put in here yesterday afternoon, owing to contrary winds. MILITARY. The number of recruits to her Majesty's land forces since the increase of the bounty has considerably aug mented, and 100 is about the average daily attested in the London district alone. Captain Sir Thomas Hastings, Chief Clerk of the Ord nance, visited Woolwich Arsenal yesterday, and wont over several of the departments with the authorities. In every department the greatest activity prevails, and immense supplies of the munitions of war are received, and, on being made ready, are forwarded to the seat of war with the least possible delay. DUBLIN, Nov. 16.—Major-General Cochrane, com manding the garrison, yesterday made an inspection of the 90th Light Infantry, in the Royal Barracks, accom panied by Lieutenant-Colonel M‘Murdo, Assistant Ad jutant-General of the Dublin District, and Lieutenant- Colonel Mylius, Town-Major of Dublin, when the ser vice and depot compaqies were formed, and the usual formulee of inspection, &c., gone through. The only officers remaining with the depot companies (proceeding this day to the Linen-hall Barracks) are—Capt. Grove, commanding ; Captains Vaughan, Bastard (selling out), Tinlin, and Close (on promotion) : Lieutenant Denison, to rejoin from the West India staff; and Ensigns Raitt and Sir Charles Pigott. Colour-Sergeant Filrner will be acting sergeant-major of the depot. The regiment is positively to sail on Saturday next, from Kingstown. Lieutenant-Colonel Eld has resumed the command, and will proceed with the regiment, with Brevet Lieutenant- Celonel Deeerill and Major Campbell. No women are allowed to embark, instructions having been received yesterday from the Horse Guards to that effect. We cannot allow the opportunity afforded by this announce ment to pass without some expression ' however inade quate, of the good feeling generally entertained in Dublin for the 90th Regiment. For the two years and upwards during which this corps has been stationed here, their conduct, men and officers, has been such as to recommend them strongly to the re spect and affection of the inhabitants. Perfect order, propriety of manner, generous sentiment, and a total absence of brawling and of offences against military dis cipline, have distinguished the 90th .in Dublin ; and proceeding now in the service of their Queen and country to take part in one of the bloodiest wars ever engaged in, they leave behind them here no other feel ing than one of high admiration, and are accompanied by no other wish than that they may find laurels worthy of their bravery and high character. Messrs. Pim, Brothers, and Co., have furnished the following articles to the above regiment :—About 2,000 pair of socks ; 2,000 woollen shirts; 2,000 woollen drawers; 2,000 pair of woollen gloves, and 1,000 pair of wits.--Daily Express. GALWAY, Nov. 15.—Recruiting is being vigorously carried on here at present, no less than 25 aspirants to military honours having been enlisted within the last week or ten days by recruiting sergeants of the 40th depot, stationed here. Martial ardour, however, is not the chief stimulant, for, owing to the nearly total cessa tion of publip works, many have been compelled to take this step through necessity. CeoszasEre Nov. 15.—We understand that the troops at present stationed in this garrison are under orders to proceed to the Crimea, and that Captain Grant's com pany of the 16th Lancers will forthwith join head quarters prior to embarkation for the seat of war. It is rumoured that the barracks will be occupied by a de tachment of some of the English militia regiments at resent quartered in thss country. THE MILITIA. The City Limerick Militia is fast filling up, and the requisite number of 300 will before stolen be enrolled. Arrangements appear to be gth in course of being carried out for enrolling and embodying the Kil kenny Militia. The contingent which Down furnishes to the 30,000 men of which the Irish militia will consist is 1,472, and this force is divided into two regiments—the Royal North Down Rifles (800 strong), of which the Marquis of Londonderry, lieutenant of the county, is colonel, and the Royal South Down Regiment, 672 strong, of which the Marquis of Downshire is colonel. The Marquis of Londonderry has already nominated Major Montgomery, late of the 45th Regiment, as lieutenant-colonel, and Captain Stewart, late of the Essex Rifles, as adjutant of the Royal North Down Rifles, and has referred to Lord Downshire, as colonel of the South Down Regiment, the selection of the officers of that regiment. It is the intention of the Government to direct the im mediate enrolment of the two militia regiments of the county of Mayo ; accordingly the adjutantcies of the regiments have been filled by the Earl of Arran, the noble lord having appointed Captain Bouchier, late of the 12th Foot, to the South Mayo, and Captain Butler to the North Mayo. The noble lord has also appointed Captain John Palmer to the lieutenant-colonelcy of the South Mayo, and Mr. Thomas 11. Bourke, MD. ; to the surgeehey Of the 01:120 regiment. CHINA. The first of the year's August mails from Eng land was delivered in Hong Kong on the 19th inst., being in the unprecedented period of thirty nine days and some hours only from St. Martin's le-Grand. Our latest advices from the north of China, touch ing the internal affairs of the country, carry no im portant feature. Shanghai withstands all attempts by the Imperialists to retake it. Admiral Sterling, with the Winchester (50), En counter screw-steamer (14), and paddle -steamers Styx (6) and Barracouta (6), left Shanghai on the 25th ult. for Japan, en route, it is supposed, for the Bay of Okholsk, where, on the Island of Kodiah at its entrance, there is a large Russian town, defended by two citadels mounting more than a hundred cannon, and where no doubt will be found a portion of the Russian squadron lately in these seas. The combined French and English squadron under Admirals Price and Pointes (258 guns) was seen by the Dutch ship Oud Nederland on the 30th of July last, in latitude 31 N., between the Sand wich Islands and California, steering in a westerly direction, doubtless with the intention of peeping into San Francisco on the way to Sitka, where the other portion of the Russian squadron may be looked for. The Pacific squadron is thus nearly a month in advance of Admiral Sterling's smaller fleet, and will have completed its work on the American side before Sir James can get within fighting distance. His Excellency Sir John Bowring, accompany ing the French minister, M. Bourboulon, and family, proceeded to Shanghai in her Majesty's steam-ship Rattler, on the 16th inst. Mr. D. B. Robertson, H. B. M.'s Consul for Canton, is charged with the management of the diplomatic department in the south during the plenipotentiary's absence, and for the present will reside in Hong Kong.

Money continues easy at the banks and in European quarters, but in the bazaar there is considerable demand, the Dewallee holidays (the close of the native commercial year) when a gene ral settlement of accounts takes place, being now close at hand. For the same reason the market for shares and securities is dull, and we can look for no improve ment till after the holidays, which extend from the 20th to the 24th instant. There have been very few sales during the fortnight. Cotton Piece Goods.—The amount of damaged goods which have appeared in the market of late has been considerably increased by recent arrivals, and first•class ships have delivered their cargoes in a most deplorable condition, apparently from the want of greater precau tion in the dunnaging and loading of vessels, and it is something incredible the extent of damaged goods at present on the spot. Cotton Yarn.—The market continues without anima tion, and the sales, which are somewhat large, partake of a forced character, and prices consequently of all counts of mule and water are lower. Dyed orange and Turkey red are both difficult to place, but in the former some little business has been done. The sales of mule reach 337 bales ; water, 953 bales, of which 95 are mock; and orange, 75 bales. Woollens.—There has been little done in this cloth, the only sale reported being one of 70 pieces of ladies' cloth, at Rs. 2 3 / 4 per piece. Exchan , ge rather declined after the departure of last mail, till the arrival of the China mail of the sth inst., bringing better accounts of the Canton market and a moderate supply of bills from Shanghai, when a reac tion took place. The majority of this mail's transac tions have been settled at is lid to is 11 3 / 4 d for bank and first-class credit bills, and is .11 3 / 4 d for documents, but last day or two there has been a further tendency to a rise, and closing quotations may be given as 3 / 4 higher, say is lid for oredits and is 110 fir documents. On China we hear of no transactions, and on the presi dencies there is nothing doing. Our quotations are quite nominal. EXPORTS. Cotton Wool—The unfavourable accounts brought by the mail of the staple with the inferior quality of what is at present offering caused great depression in the market, and prices have slightly declined, though in the last few days a firmer tone has been imparted to the market by a revival of demand, and which has led to an increased business, the purchases amounting to 5,500 bales. As the season, however, is becoming more settled, supplies of all descriptions of produce will be arriving shortly, and the selection of cotton will therefore be greater. Opium—Better accounts of the drug having been re ceived by the last China steamer, an increased business has been doing in Malwa, and 400 chests are reported to have been taken at Rs. 935 per chest for the best quality, but of which the supply is very limited, and prices have since further advanced, Indore being at Rs. 925, Mundleisur Rs. 940 per chest. The last steamer on the Ist instant took upwards of 600 chests, and the one to sail en the 16th will not have much under 800 chests. Tonnage—Rates of freight, in consequence of a liberal supply of tonnage since our last, and the dulness exist ing in our cotton produce markets, have given way to 10s. per ton for Liverpool, and 3/. 12s. 6cl. to 31. lis. for London, which are the current rates of the day. For China there is no vessel on the berth, and quota- tions are therefore quite nominal CA. LCUTTA, Oat 4. The Precursor steamer, with London mails of August 25, arrived on the 2d instant. Except as regards indigo the accounts of our produce are on the whole unfavourable, but the easier state of the money market and good har vest expectations are subjects of congratulation in all commercial circles. Before the holidays business is generally very brisk, all parties wishing to ship as much as possible, but we are sorry to have n oticed none of this. There appeared to be very little doing more than during the previous weeks ; we have therefore nothing cheering to advise. The produce market continues in very much the same state as at the date of our last, and as for piece goods they are as dull as ever ; the market is so over stocked, an . 1 shipments of Manchester goods have been so large, that the loss of the Maranon and Ann Cro pp er, at the Sand Heads, with a quantity of these goods and yarns on board, is looked on as a small relief rather than a misfortune ; the copper lost at the same time will give increased firmness to this metal, which has a decided upward tendency. At, the date of our last opium had declined to 660 rs. for Patna ; it immediately rose to 670 rs., and has since continued rising gradually up to 673 re., since which it has again slightly fluctuated, and may be quoted at 672 re. for Patna and 680 rs. for Benares.

Our port, since the commencement of the present month, has been again the scene of much bustle and activity, through the arrival from England and France and departure for the Crimea with astonishing rapidity—thanks to the indefatigable activity of the Rear-Admiral Superintendent Houston Stewart, of Malta dockyard, and the officers of this establishment—of reinforcements of troops and supplies of stores and ammunition to carry on the war, and bring it, as we hope, to a speedy, glorious, and satisfactory termination. On the Ist the Atlas, French steamer, arrived from Marseilles, and loft for the Crimea on the 2d, having on board 356 rank and file. ThePoictiers, English transport (No. 129), ar rived from Cork on the 2d with stores. The Orontes, screw steamer, arrived from Liver pool on the 2d, and left for Alexandria on the 4th.

O'Dwyer and Malony, and Assistant-Surgeons Price, Brad shaw, Hudson, and Walker. The Miranda, steam-frigate, arrived on the 3d from Plymouth, and left for the Crimea on the same day, having on board Lieutenant Hicks and Lieutenant Griffiths, R.A., Assistant-Surgeon Grant, Messrs. Bloxam and Townsend, and 63 seamen for the fleet.. The Tharsis, Spanish steamer, arrived from Mar seilles on the 3d, with 418 rank and file, and left for the Crimea, on the following day. The Libertas, No. 95, sailing transport, left for England on the 3d, with Captain Pocock, of tho 30th ; Lieutenant Nicholas, R.A. ; Lieutenant Lockhart of the 41st ; Lieutenant White of the 50th ; Assistant-Surgeon Cockburn ; several other officers, 113 non-commissioned officers and privates, 5 commissariat employes, 25 seamen, and 1 woman, invalided from the East. The cutter yacht Syren, belonging to Mr. Moore, arrived frem Marseilles on the 4th. The Vifredo, screw-steamer, arrived from Con stantinople on the 4th, left for Carthagena on the 7th, and put back from some disarrangement of her machinery on the Bth. The Blundell (No. 30) transport arrived from London on the 4th, hawing on board Captain Ragnes, Ensign Hunter, 23 non-commissioned officers and privates of the mounted staff corps, 2 farriers, 2 servants, and 47 cavalry horses, and left on the same day for the Crimea. The Chase, hired store-ship, with provisions, &c., for Constantinople, from London, passed Malta on the 4th. _ _ _ The screw-steamer British Queen arrived from Constantinople and Smyrna on the 4th having on board the following wounded and invalids, viz.:— Lieut.-Colonel Hepburn, Captains Balmer, Astley, and Viscount Eunismore, of the Scots Fusilier Guards ; Lieut. Bathurst, of the 23d ; Lieut. Bis set, of the 55th ; the Earl of Errol, of the Rifles (accompanied by the Countess); Assistant-Commis sary-General Strickland, Lieutenant and Adjutant Carden, of the 19th ; Lieut. Brook and Ensign Sillery, of the 30th ; Lieut. Hickman, of the 50th; Lieut, Young, of the 38th ; Mr. Young and Mr. Talbot, 83 privates, 1 seaman, and 8 Maltese carters and mule conductors. She left for Liver pool on the 6th, carrying on Lieutenants Carden, Brooks, Bisset, and Young ; Ensigns Sillery and Talbot ; Mr. T. Sharpe, 2 privates, and 2 seamen. The Byzantin, French screw-steamer, arrivedfrom Marseilles on the sth with provisions, ammunition, and stores, and 689 rank and file, and proceeded on her voyage to Constantinople on the same day. The Jura, screw steam-transport, arrived on the sth in 91 days from Cork, having on board Captain Macquarrie, of the 63d (sick throughout the voyage) ; Captain Thompson, of the sth Dragoon Guards ; Lord Killeen, of the Bth Hus sars ; Captains Hapard and Lea, of the 57th ; Lieutenant Copeland, of the 57th ; Surgeon ' Ham burg, Assistant-Surgeons Hyde, Rutherord, Riau . wick, Obens, White, Young Webb, Jewan, Phelps, and Ryal ; Mr. Staines the commissariat ; 23 ensigns, and 1,193 non-commissioned officers and privates of various regiments. It was intended that this ship should proceed direct to the seat o war, but the insubordinate conduct of a company of the 50th, and another of the 55th Regiments, rendered her putting into Malta necessary. From the information we can collect it would appear that three or four men who were serving a period of imprisonmelit by sentence of court-martial had their sentence remitted on their wish to volunteer for foreign service becoming known. They were put on board the Jura with several recruits, and first showed an insubordinate spirit by not salu ting the officers. The example was soon followed by the recruits, and matters went on from bad . to worse. Tho next pretext was, an insufficient ration of water, and, as if by so doing the supply would be increased, they finally proceeded to de stroy the water casks and waste the contents ; for tunately, however, the vessel's condensing appa ratus was sufficient to keep up a supply to replace the loss. At one time the insubordination reached to such a pitch that as many as 100 sentries had to be kept over the guilty parties, two of which lat ter received at sea fifty lashes ; and Captain Wickham, commanding the vessel, loaded with grape and brought two of the ship's guns to bear upon that part whore the prisoners were confined, and the soldiers of the 63d were kept over them with their loaded muskets.

The town of Eupatoria, situated at the northern ex tremity of Kalamita Bay, has of late become a place of great importance to the Allied fleet, in consequence of the supplies of cattle, which have been sent from it in great abundance. The town, which was wholly unpro tected, has been placed under the command of Captain Brock, R.N., who for some time past has been lousily engaged in throwing up breastworks for the defence of the Tartar population who inhabit it, and whose could less herds feed upon the steppe that surrounds it. As the inhabitants have shown a decided predilection for English rule, and the supplies drawn from their Books made the retaining of the town a matter of the greatest importance, a force of Marines, consisting of 400 Eng lish, 200 French, and 150 Turks, have been landed and placed under Captain Brock's command. This force has been subsequently augmented by the presence in the bay of her Majesty's ships Leander, Firebrand, and Megasra, and one French and two Turkish line-of•battle ships, which have been detached from the Allied fleet. Ru mours had been rife for some time past of a large force of the imperial cavalry having appeared in the neighbourhood, and these were confirmed on tie after noon of the 11th of October by the appearance on the steppe of large bodies of horse, who threatened the town on the land side. A requisition for reinforce ments was immediately sent by the goveraor to Capt. King, commanding her Majesty's ship Leander, by whose orders First-Lieutenant Hamilton of that ship landed in command of 100 seam,* and Marines and one fieldpiece, and accompanied by Third-Lieutenant Colin Campbell, the Rev. J. Stuart Robson, ohaplain, Assistant-Surgeon Blake, Messrs. Mitchell and Bryne, mates ; and Lord Edward Cecil and Messrs. Dupuis, Buckle, and Lake, midshipmen. A party of 40 men were landed from her Majesty's steamer Megmra, under the charge of Mr. Irvine, the mate, and also placed under Lieut. Hamilton's command. On the following morn ing the fieldpiece was placed in a commanding position at the back of the town, where it adjoins the steppe, a small redoubt was thrown np, and a party of bluejackets stationed in it. In the course of the forenoon Captain Brock, accompanied by Captain King and one of the Marine officers and the fieldpiece, made a reconnaissance on the steppe, when a body of cavalry, about 600 in number, suddenly appeared, and advanced within 500 yards. They then opened their racks and chewed four guns, which opened fire with shot and shell, some of which fell within the town. The Leander's fieldpiece returned the fire, and a shell from it burst among the enemy's ranks, killing and weundingls. Being, however, unsupported by small arms, Capt. Brock ordered the party to retreat to the town, which they did, having first taken the gnu to pieces and spiked it: The alarm was now given, and the whole of the bluejaokets and Marines belonging to the Leander and Megmra., and headed by Lieutenants Hamilton and Campbell and the Rev. J. Stuart Robson and Mr. Irvine, immediately got under arms, and advanced to the steppe in double quick time to support the fieldpiece. •n arriving at the scene of action, they discovered that the enemy had retired, and that the seamen, with Captain King, had remounted and unspiked their gun, which was then escorted back to its position. The whole of the men belonging to the Leander and Megtera remained at this redoubt during the day, and were quartered at night in a house adjoining. 'rewards midnight one if the Marines was attacked with cholera in its most malignant form, and died, after great suffering, in fear hours. About 3 a.m. on the morning of the 13th Lord Edward Cecil, a midshipman on watch with the fieldpiece, ob serving a body of the enemy's cavalry advancing towards the redoubt by a road which led to it from the steppe, immediately opened fire upon them, and the officers, sea men, and Marines, rushing out from their quarters, lined the redoubt and barricades on its right. A brisk fire was new commenced and sustained for some time. The flashes of the muskets were incessant, and the bullets whi3tled in every direction, while the appear ance of the shells from the gun, as they described their curve through the air, was extremely beautiful. The enemy soon retreated, finding that the little force in the redoubt was on the alert, and without any die position to yield it. At 10 a.m. the same morning the remains of the poor Marine who had died of cholera found an honourable grave, the service being read by tile chaplain, Mr. Robson. The same day the nasal brigade was strengthened by the arrival of Lieu tenant Pym, of her Majesty's ship Firebrand, with a party of 35 men, another fieldpiece and a 'locket tulle. A fresh redoubt was constructed in the course of the day for their reception, and the first one was strength ened by baring its ditch widened and deepened, and the breastwork made mere substantial. On the 15th the enemy advanced again in force, burning the villages, and carrying off corn and cattle in every direction on the north side of the - town. The Firebrand and Arrow gunboats were therefore despatched along the coast, and fired several shells, which caused them to disperse in great contusion and with considerable loss. The Lean der on the following evening dispersed another body of 300 cavalry, who advanced almost to the southern en trance of the town, with the intention of cutting off the herds of cattle which had been driven in from the steppe for safety. Lieutenant Hood, of her Majesty's ship Arethosa, who had been sent from the fleet with some rocket tubes, bad also a slight engagement on the morn ing of the 19th, when the enemy, taking advantage of a thick fug, pushed forward a body of cavalry towards the windmills outside the town, in which this officer had stationed himself with a party of blue-jackets. The Itussians were driven back, but not until they had killed and wounded several of our Tartar allies, This kind of skirmishing occurs every day, and as the vedettes of the enemy are within three miles, and their numbers are re ported to amount to 3,000 or 4,000, they may attack the town at any moment, and great vigilance on the part of its defenders is called for, and net in vain. The defences of the town are now in a respectable condition ; a deep ditch, with a strong breastwork, has been cut across the level ground, in front of the northern and southe rn on trances, and guns have been plan ted in advantag eou s positions. At the back of the townseviet field - pieces several strongeces and re doubts have been erected and armed ;h force stationed th is"tvre b ee n closed hood.

DRATR or GENERAL HUNTER, C.l3.—We regret to announce the death, on the 11th inst., of this distin guished Indian officer, after /few days' illness, at the Bridge of Allan. General George Hunter, C. 8., was in his sixty-ninth year. He entered the army in 1801, and continued in active service till within the last three years. He saw much service, commanding in &incle during the .A.ffghan war, in which he took a distin guished part, and was publicly thanked by the directors of the Honourable East India Company, in particular for the courage and discretion he displayed in quelling a dangerous mutiny . . Sir Charles Napier entertained so high an opinion ofhis abilities that when he last went to India he made it a condition that (enteral Hunter should accompany him.
