To TIIE LADIES.--The high and universal cele brity which ROWLAND'S ItaLYnon continues to main tain, as an active yet mild and soothing extirpator of all impurities of the skin, is, during the present period most pleasingly evinced. This preparation eminently balsamic, restorative, and invigorating, is equally celebrated for safety in application, as for unfailing efficacy in remov ing all impurities and discolorations ; and imparting a healthy freshness to the skin and complexion. Its uni versally great demand excites the cupidity of unprin cipled Shopkeepers, who give the title of " Genuine" KALYDOR to some compounds of their own manufacture, of the most deleterious character, containing mineral astringents utterly ruinous to the complexion, and, by their repellant action endangering health. It is, there fore, imperative on purchasers to see that the words " ROWLAND'S KALYDOR" are on the wrapper. All others are FRAUDULENT COUNTERFEITS 1 1 TRAVELLING FOR LESS THAN A FARTHING PER MILE.—The competition between the Forth and Clyde Canal Company and the Edinburgh Railway is so strong, that the Canal Company now carry passengers from Glasgow to Edinburgh, with profit, at less than a far thing a mile!

Since the ruluction of fairs by the Canal Company, about a year ago, the increase of passengers nearly ex ceeds belief, being 235 per cent, increase upon the day through 1 assenger trade, and 209 per cent. by the night boats.

INDIA AND CHINA. STORMING OF SAMANGHUR. NOTIFICATION.—POLITICAL The honourable the Governor in Council is pleased to publish for general information the following dis patches from Major-General Delamotte, C. 8., command ing the southern division of the army, and from Lieut.- Col. Wallace, of the 20th Regiment Madras Native In fantry, announcing the capture by storm, on the morn ing of the 13th instant, of the fort of Samanghur, occu pied by a body of insurgent Ghudkurries ; and the defeat, by a detachment of the sth Madras Light Cavalry, under Captain Grwme, of another body of insurgents who had approached that fortress with the object of re lieving the garrison and raising the siege. In publishing these documents the Honourable the Governor in Council has the greatest satisfaction in ex pressing the high sense he entertains of the gallantry and soldier-like conduct displayed by the officers and men of all arms composing the force engaged in these operations. By order of the Hon. the Governor in Council. J. P. WILLOUGHBY, Chief Secretary. Bombay Castle, Oct. 24, 1844. the turbans were passed like ropes, affording ready means of letting themselves down ; but though many succeeded in thus escaping from the fort, all were either killed or taken prisoners by the infantry close round the fort, or by the cavalry patrolling at the base of the hill upon which the fart stands. My belief that none escaped is founded upon the circumstance of the numbers of the enemy killed, wounded, and prisoners taken during th 42 storm. I beg to report that the arrangements directed by me during the night of the 12 th , were fully carried out on the morning of the 13th, by the several officers commanding, and completely succeeded by the zeal and gallantry dis played by the officers, non-commissioned officers, rank and file, both European and native, of each arm of the service employed upon this occasion, to all of whom my thanks are specially due. To Major Clemons, of the 20th Regiment Native In fantry, commanding the storming party, and to Captains Gillanders and Jones, of the 2d Bombay European Light Infantry, commanding the right and left attacking co lumns, I feel highly indebted for the manner the storm ing party was led, and the arrangements made to beat the enemy out of the fort, after the troops had carried the breach. To Captain Grreme, of the sth Madras Cavalry, my thanks are due for the effectual measures he adopted to prevent the escape of the garrison during the storm, and for the prompt movement and energetic attack sub sequently made upon a large body of the enemy, assem bled about two miles upon a hill in his front. Having been present and seen the zeal and gallantry displayed by Captain Grieme and his wing, when charging the enemy, enables me to express my thanks and acknow ledgments to Captain Grwme and his wing for their conduct on this brilliant occasion, by which a Lige body of the enemy were completely broken and dispersed, leaving between 200 and 300 of their number dead upon the field, and about 150 prisoners. My thanks are also due to Captain Middlecoat for the measures he adopted to knock away the defences and effecting the two breaches, as also to Lieutenant Margary, the command ing engineer, who, together with Lieutenant Campbell, of the 2d European Light Infantry, first ascended the breach, closely followed by the storming party. I cannot conclude without giving expression to the feelings of pride and gratification I cannot but entertain when an officer of Lieut.-Col. Outram's high character, well-known gallantry, and established fame, placed his valuable services at my disposal not only during the storm of the fort of Samanghur, but during the subse quent operations on the same day, of the wing of the sth Light Cavalry under Captain Grwme, against a large body of the enemy ; on both these occasions Lieut.-Col. Outram's services were valuable, and I have requested Lieut.-Col. Outram, C. 8., in this day's order, to accept my best thanks and grateful acknowledgments. During the several operations carried on yesterday, both against the fort of Samanghur and on the plains, the losses sustained by the enemy in killed may be com puted at between 500 and 600, and of prisoners about the same number, making a total of about 1,100 or 1,200 men, among whom are several chiefs and influential men; whilst the loss on our side was trifling, which I entirely attribute to the zeal and ability of the several officers, and the energetic gallantry of the troops engaged, under the protection and guidance of a merciful Providence.

TO THE ADJUTANT-GENERAL OF THE ARMY, POONA. Samanghur, Oct. 18. Sir,—Yesterday was occupied in breaching the walls in two places; in the evening one was reported practi cable by the engineer. It is with heartfelt satisfaction I communicate the follewiag:—A storming-party was pre pared to storm at daybreak this morning—two columns under the command of Major Clemons, of the 20th Regi ment Madras Native Infantry. At daybreak the first column entered and s:,ormed the breach, closely followed by the second. All opposition was soon overcome, and in half an hour the storming-party had entire possession of the fort of Samanghur. All have behaved in a most gallant manner. Lieutenant Margary, Executive Engineer, was with the leading column. The loss on our side has been trifling: one Sepoy of the 20th Regiment Madras Native Infantry killed, and four privates of the 2d European Light Infantry wounded. About seventy were found killed of the enemy, and 150 taken prisoners in the fort. On the storming parties entering the fort, numbers endeavoured to make their escape, but were cut up by the cavalry, who were patrolling for that purpose. Numbers have been taken prisoners attempting to escape, among the number the rebel Subana Niekum, of noto riety, who has been severely wounded by sabre cuts. The cavalry and portions of the storming party had scarcely returned to their lines when the enemy were discovered on an eminence in considerable numbers, when I deemed it necessary to send the cavalry in pur suit, followed by 100 Europeans and 200 Sepoys. The enemy being closely pursued, formed into a body to receive the cavalry, who charged them and killed up wards of 100, and brought into camp nearly 200 pri soners. I have only time to make this hasty report—the par ticulars will be forwarded by to-morrow's post for his Excellency's information.—l have, &c. .._ . P. DELAMOTTE, Major-General, Commanding S. D. A. Head-quarters, S. D. A., Camp before Samanghur, Oct. 13, 1844. TO THE ADJUTANT-GENERAL OF THE ARMY, POONA. Sir,—With reference to my letter of yesterday's date, hastily written, reporting, for his Excellency's informa tion, the capture of the important fortress of Samanghur, I now do myself the honour to forward Lieutenant-Colo nel Wallace's detailed account of the operations of the siege, and that officer's arrangements, which from time to time met with my entire concurrence and approbation: the energy, activity, and skilful military knowledge dis played by that officer were fully developed in the dispo tions made for the attack and storming of the breach at the dawn of day, to which I attribute the little loss we have sustained ; the advance was fired upon from the breach and flanks ; but a feeble resistance was made at the breach ; the principal leaders taken in the fort ac knowledged they were taken by surprise ; many, how ever, defended their houses inside the fort. (Signed) I have now the pleasing task of reporting the valuable services of Captain Greme, and the wing of the sth Regimant of Madras Cavalry under his command, who arrived from Kolapore just in time, after a most arduous and fatiguing march, to render us most important aid, in preventing the escape of the garrison, which was most successfully carried into execution, and imme diately after, the complete destruction of a body of the enemy, who had the temerity to approach within three miles of our camp, to succour the garrison of Sit manghur, and which I was an eye-witness to. Captain Grwme's report is attached to Lieut.-Col. Wal lace's, together with Major Clemons and, other officers', employed on this occasion in command of their several parties, to which I beg to refer his Excellency, together with the report of casualties, which, I am truly happy to state, are few in number. To Lieut.-Colonel Wallace I am particularly indebted for his zeal and persevering exertions on all occasions ; and I should not be doing justice were Ito omit to bring to his Excellency's notice the praiseworthy conduct of every officer and individual composing this force, who have on all and every occasion, under great privation, fatigue, and inclemency of the weather, carried on their duty in a most cheerful and soldier-like manner.— I have the honour to be, &c. (Signed) P. DELANIOTTE, Major-General, Commanding S.D.A. Head-quarters S.D.A., Camp before Samanghur, Oct. 14, 1844. TO THE ASSISTANT ADJUTANT-GENERAL SOUTLIERN DIVISION OF VIE ARMY. Camp before Samanghur. Sir,—ln continuation of my report up to the 7th inst., I have now the honour to state that working parties were sent down daily from the Bth to the 12th inst., for the purpose of dragging up the breaching guns, aided by elephants and gun-bullocks ; two 18-pounders having been, by very great exertion, brought up to the tope in front of Bheema Temple:late in th e even i ng o f th e 10th, and kept during the night under cover, were placed in battery before daylight on the morning of the 11th, it being considered advisable to knock away the enemy's defences, flanking the approaches to the proposed breaches. During these days shelling continued through out the day, and occasionally during the night ; at noon of this day a third 18-pounder was brought up and im mediately placed in battery with the others. After knocking away the defences, the guns commenced breach ing the south-western bastion opposite the Bheema Tem ple. On the 12th the breaching was continued, on the forenoon of which day the fourth 18-pounder was brought up and immediately placed in battery. At three o'clock, r.st., this day, the commanding en gineer closely reconnoitred the two breaches, and re commended that all the guns should be turned upon the smaller breach which had been made in a tower to the rig ht of the south-west bastion , and at sunset , he having reported this breach practicable, and the one on . the s outh-west sufficiently prepared for escalade, immediate arrangements were made for the storming of the fort at daylight the following morning. I directed the troops (1), divided into two columns. under the command of Major Clemons of the 20th Re giment of Native Infantry, to be in readiness at halt past four o'clock ; the first column under Captain Jones, to assemble in a tope a little in advance of the Bheema Temple ; and the second column under Captain Gillan ders, at the base of the hill upon which the fort stands, and immediately fronting the right breach. The Artillery detachment, under Lieutenant Jones, 100 men of the 20th Regiment Madras Native Infantry, 50 men of the 23d Light Infantry, under Ensign Night ingale, the whole under command of Captain Middle coat, of the Artillery, was held in reserve at the breach ing battery. Orders were sent to Lieutenant Snow, commanding the detachment in the Pettah, consisting of 32 men of the 2d Bombay European Light Infantry, one company of the 20th Regiment Madras Native In fantry, under Ensign Hutchison, and one company of the 21st Bombay Native Infantry, to be in readiness a little before daybreak, and to make a diversion before the gateway on that side of the fort, with skirmishers in advance, Similar orders were sent to Capt. Strettle, commanding the detachment, as per below, at the com manding hill, to make a diversion from that side by ad vancing in two columns with skirmishers in front. In structions were likewise sent to the officer commanding the post near the gate on the east side of the fort to place the men in extended order under the natural:cover afforded near the fort, and to open a fire from that side as the storming parties were advancing. Orders were sent to Captain Gm me, to patrol with the wing of the sth Light Cavalry round the base of the hill, from Lieutenant Snow's post in the Pettah to Captain Strettlo's at the commanding hill. thus completing a chain of troops entirely surrounding the fort, and calculated to prevent the escape of the garrison. My expectations in this respect were fully realised, for I have every reason to believe that not a man escaped, though many got over the walls, letting themselves down by their .turbans, which were found suspended in many places round the walls of the fort, to one end of which sticks or large stones were fastened and placed cross-ways at the loop-holes, through which 1.

(True 'copy) TO THE STAFF OFFICER, FIELD FORCE, CAMP, SAMANGEIUR. Fort Samanghur, Oct. 13, 1844. ; Sir,—Agreeably to the orders received from the officer commanding field force, I have the honour to report I took command of the storming party this morning, which was divided into two separate columns ; the first (2) was commanded by Captain Jones, 2d B. E. Light Infantry, and the second (3), by Capt. Gillenders, 2d B. E. Light Infantry. By daybreak the first party entered and stormed the breach, closely followed by Captain Gillan ders. All opposition was soon overcome, and in half an hour the storming party under my command had entire possession of the fort of Samanghur. When all have behaved with gallantry, it is difficult to particularise, but I feel much pleasure in bringing to the notice of the officer commanding the gallant conduct of both Captain Gillanders and Captain Jones, commanding the two par ties, nobly and ably supported by all the officers under their respective commands. Also the Rifle Company of the IGth Regiment, under Lieutenant Shaw, which did good service in covering our advance. My thanks are due to Lieutenant and Adjutant White, who ably sup. ported and was present with me when Ensign Robson planted the British ensign on the breach, and which was carried there by Havildar Nuraiyin Abidiah. I must beg to bring to the notice of the officer com manding that Lieutenant Margery, Engineers, was pre, sent with the leading column and ably supported the attack. The loss on our side, I am happy to report, is trifling; one Sepoy Light Company 20th Regiment killed, and four privates of the Europeans wounded; about 70 of the enemy were killed, and I conceive about 150 prisoners were taken in the fort. I have assumed command of the fort agreeably to the orders of Lieutenant-Colonel Wallace, and have made the necessary arrangements for its protection and the preservation of order.—l have the honour to be, &c., (Signed) C. CLEMONS, Major 20th Regt. M.N.1., Commanding Fort of Samanghur. B. TO THE ASSISTANT-ADJUTANT - GENERAL, FIELD FORCE BEFORE SAMANGUUR. Sir,—Agreeably to instructions received last evening, I marched shortly before daybreak for the purpose of keeping up a chain from the Pettah towards Major Cle mons's hill, and preventing the escape of the enemy on that side. I had scarcely time to form different outposts when the enemy were seen coming over the high ground within musket shot of my detachments. Each party immediately advanced to the attack, and I have every reason to believe that few escaped. At a rough guess, I should say about 70 or 80 of the enemy were left dead on the field, and 155 prisoners, all well armed when taken, are in my camp. I have every reason to be sa tisfied with the conduct of every one under my com mand, and trust the Major-General commanding will be so also.—l have the honour to be, &c., (Signed) C. GRIEME, Captain, Commanding Wing sth Light Cavalry Camp before Samanghur, 13th October, 1844. C. TO THE ASSISTANT-ADJUTANT-GENERAL, FIELD FORCE, CAMP, SAMANGHUR. _ Sir,-1 have the honour to report, for the information of the Major-General commanding the division, that under instructions conveyed to me by Colonel Outram, by order of Brigadier Wallace, to keep a large body of armed men, who had made their appearance immediately to my front, about one-and-a-half mile distant, in play, until such time as the infantry could be sent down, I mounted the wing of the regiment under my command, which had but just returned from the heavy morning's work already reported, and proceeded at once towards them. The enemy seeing me advance, immediately made off at a slow pace to their right, towards a large village situated at the foot of the hill on which they bad formed. I kept on at a brisk pace, through wet grain fields, quagmires, and morasses, and just before my crossing the Hurrikary River the enemy formed up and threw out to all appearance skirmishers ; seeing, however, that the river was no impediment to me, they again made off as soon as they saw the head of my column debouching from its bed. Here I gave the horses a little breathing, and then continued the pursuit about two or three miles from the river ; the main body of the enemy formed up in line, and I was in hopes they were going to contest the field with me, but after sounding a trumpet and beating a drum (both captured), and discharging a few shots, replied to them by sounding the charge, and in less than ten minutes the field was strewed with dead. Here I was joined by Brigadier Wallace and Lieutenant Margery, who continued with mo during the pursuit. Such of the enemy as had not here fallen, endeavoured to escape through the high grain, but were overtaken and either killed or made prisoners, with the exception of some fifteen to twenty men, who, taking advantage of the very bad ground intersected with nullahs almost impassable, made off in the direction of the hills. These it was not considered necessary to follow much further, the pursuit having already extended about ten miles ; so collecting the prisoners, to the number of 138, I re traced my steps to the camp. On a moderate calcula tion, I should say not less than 250 of the enemy were killed and wounded on the field. lam happy to say the casualties are very trifling ; a return accompanies this report. I cannot conclude this statement without ex pressing my sense of the obligations I feel myself to lie under to Col. Outram, who accompanied me throughout, and to whose experience and guidance I attribute much of the success of the day. Of the conduct of all the officers (European and native) and men under my command, I cannot speak in too high terms of praise, and I feel an inward conviction that every man did his duty most willingly, and with credit to the set vice.—l have the honour to be, &c., (Singned) C.

This delightful town residence was fitted up by the late re spected possessor, regardless of expense, with a fixed determination to secure every comfort a family of distinction can desire. That he succeeded " a merveille" will be perceptible at the first glance, since ingenuity would be puzzled to find a real want neglected. Of the situation, it may be desirable to observe that it is IN THE VERY CENTRE OF FASHION AND GAIETY, AND ON THE VERGE OF ROYALTY, and the tenure secures the possession, subject to the original ground.rent only, for a period. " STILL EXISTING OF EIGHTY YEARS."

There is water laid on throughout the abode and offices, indeed, the whole appears allied to comfort, although it is not in. tended to disguise the fact that a lady outrageously straightlaced may, by dint of ingenuity, find the opportunity to display her tact in renovating some of the decorations. The purchaser will have the opportunity to take, at a fair valuation, THE ELEGANT FURNITURE AND APPENDAGES of every kind, and in the best taste, observing that Dowbiggin was the artiste in furniture. _ _.._ _......_ ... ___......._.

I have no doubt that the whole of the rebels who at tempted their escape would have fallen to the share of my men, had not the cavalry come up at the time I was engaged with them ; but fearing lest my men should injure the cavalry, I was obliged to sound the " Halt," and " Cease fire."

The 2d, 3d, 13th,:and 40th Regiments being about to return to their native land, from which they have been absent, 20, '2l, 22, and 23 years respectively, and having served in India daring one of the most eventful periods of the history of this vast empire, the Com mander-in-Chief cannot permit these corps to embark without recording his high sense of their long, valuable, and meritorious services, and which he has already had the gratification to lay before his Grace the Duke of Wellington. 2. These corps are all distinguished in the wars of their country for many campaigns. In India, the 2d or Queen's Royal Regiment was prominently conspicuous in the gallant storm and capture of both Ghuznee and Khelat, and has in India added to the many glorious victories on its colours—" Affghanistan," " (ihuznee," " Khelat." 3. The 3d Foot or the Buffs adds to the numerous trophies it already bears upon its colours that of " Punniar,"—the weight of which battle it was the good fortune of this regiment nobly to sustain, mainly contri buting to the success and glory of the day. 4. The 13th, or Prince Albert's Light Infantry, was distinguished in the Burmese war and in the storm and capture of Ghuznee. Its services in Affghanistan, and especially in the gallant and protracted defence of Jella labad, are too recent and too forcibly stamped in the annals of the age to require comment ; and her Ma jesty has been pleased to allow this regiment to bear on its colours " Ave," " Affghanistan," " Ghuzuee," mural crown superscribed, " Jellalabad," " Caubul." 5. The 40th Regiment has been in India, as it has ever been, most fortunate in being actively employed ; and gallantly has it maintained its former reputation, adding to the long list of battles and victories displayed in triumph on its colours, " Candahar," " Ghuznee," " Caubul," " Maharajpore." 6. The latter services of the 3d Buffs and 40th Foot having passed under his Excellency's own observation, affords ample proof of their value; and the exemplary conduct and discipline of these corps ; in the recent campaign have been as conspicuous as their gallantry in the field. 7. The 40th Regiment has marched over an immense portion of this mighty emp:ra, from the mouth of the Indus throughout Affghanistan, crossing the Upper Indus, and traversing the Punjaub, thence into the very centre of British India, where it so mainly contributed to the gallant achievement of the memorable battle of Alaharsj pore, there displaying that indomitable courage of Bri tish soldiers so renowned throughout the world ; and will terminate its services in the east by proceeding from the north-west provinces to Calcutta. 8. The Com . mander-in-Chief, in parting with these corps, begs them to be assured he will ever feel great in terest iu their future welfare and glory ; and a feryent hope that they may reach their native land in happiness. By order of his Excellency the Commander-ix-Chief, H. G. SMITH, Major-General, Adjutant-General of her Majesty's forces in India. BOKIIARA. (From the Delhi Gazette.) It is reported by Ibraheem,* who had been sent to Bokhara. by Conolly Saheb, magistrate of Bareilly, and who has arrived in Peshawur, that Dr. Wolff Saheb, who had brought a Vakeel from the Schell of Iran and letters from the King of Room, or Sultan Abd-eel-Musheed, to the address of the King of Bokhara, had reached that capital. The Doctor was accompanied thither by some of his own servants and some suwars and people belong ing to the King of Iran. Dr. Wolff presented the letters to the King of Bokhara, and asked him why he had murdered the vakeels of the the King of Inglistan with out a cause ? The King of Bokhara replied that he had never murdered any vakeel belonging to the King of Inglistan. Neither of the Feringhees who had been put to death had any paper or sunnud from their King showing that they were vakeels. Three years ago a Feringhee, named Stoddart Saheb, had arrived in Bok hare, who did all he could to prevent its being known that ho was a Feringhee, and hid himself as long as he could. " Subsequently, I, the King, learnt that there was a Feringhee hid in my town, under these circum stances, on hearing which I immediately sent for him, and inquired of him who he was, and why he had come to Bokhara ? Stoddart Saheb told me in reply that he was a traveller wishing to see the country, and did not disguise that he was a Feringhee. I, the King, immedi ately ordered him to be thrown into prison. After this the Ameers of my Court represented it was dangerous to keep a man under such circumstances in the country, but that if Stoddart Saheb would agree to become a Mussul man, the case would be altered ; but if he remained as a Christian, either in or out of prison, evil would arise. I, the King of Bokhara, therefore sent for him and told him that if he would become a convert to the holy faith, he should be released, and might live where he pleased in Bokhara, where no doubt he would make many friends, and I would be one of them. Stoddart Saheb, on this, agreed to the proposal, and expressed his readiness to be a Mussulman. Some time after this event another Feringhee named Konolly Saheb, arrived in Bokhara, and stated that he was an Elchee of Shah Sujah. But he had no sunnud from the Shah, nor could he prove by other means that he was an Elchee, and being summoned to attend my durbar, which he did, had took up his dwelling with Stoddart Saheb. They then began both of them to enter into correspondence with the Ameers of Furung concerning the affairs of Bokhara. Stoddart Saheb also, when Konolly Saheb went to live with him, forsook the Mahomedan religion, and returned to his own faith. On my discovering this, I sent for all the Ulemas and Moulvies of my country, and submitted to them a question to the following effect :—Suppos ing a person has been converted to the Mahommedaa from the Koofur religion, and the same person after some time subsequently renounced the faith of Islam, to return to his former Koofur belief, what punishment is he liable to? The Ulemas replied that, agreeably to thu Sheru Shared, he was deserving of death. Atter this sentence had been pronounced by the Ulemas I sill kept Stodd.a - t Saheb in prison for some time, thinking ha might be a vakeel of the King of Inglistan ; and insti tuted strict inquiries to find this out. But, all my in quiries proved fruitless, and I was at last obliged to give an order for his execution. When Stoddart Saheb was about being put to death, I asked of Konolly Saheb if he would bcome a convert to the Mahommedun religion, stating to him thatif refusing he would to en do r this o h u t u s ee life hi s s ho f u ai l t d h b , be spared; but, on his r ordered him also to be put to death." Dr. Wolff Saheb then asked for the bones of both the Feringhees who had been put to death, as he could distinguish them from the bones of other people. The King of Bokhara then directed th e J u ll a d s (executioners) who had carried the sentence into execution to produce the bones of the two Feringhees, and deliver them to the Doctor. The Jullads thereupon brought twice or three times the bones of some other people, but the Doctor said he knew they were not the right bones.
