The most important incident of the fortnight over which this news extends has been the announcement of the entire extinction of all hopes of the introduc tion of railway communication into Bengal for the prisent, the sum of 1,000,000/. (the limit of the guarantee) being considered inadequate to the con struction of a sufficient length of line to yield a pay ing traffic.

Another Branch will be opened in Islington, near the Angel, as soon as the premises have undergone the necessary alterations. TEY 51S OF BUSINESS : Deposit Accounts—Three per cent. will be credited daily on all deposits for six months of 11. and upwards, and the interest paid monthi.Y , or accumulated half-yearly, at the option of the de positor, for every sum not then drawn, and which in such cases will for the next period of six months form together an increased principal sum bearing interest at three per cent.; and if not thee drawn, be again accumulated as above for the next half-yearly period, and so on progressively, compounding the interest half-yearly. But in any particular ca se of need, the Di rectors will , if the circumstances justify an ex ce p tion to their rules, re p a y the whole or any part of the depo.it. The Directors having by the Chart er the peculiar privilege of gra dually increasing the capital, will, when new shares are being alloted, give a preference, after the existing shareholders, to depositors who may wish to become proprietors, according to the priority of their applications, allowing, until a dividend be declared, three per cent. interest on all deposits set apart for shares. In accordance with the original purpose of the Institution, and of the early promise of its promoters, viz., to endeavour to make the proprietary body as nu merous as possible, and the corporation, as far as the law will per mit, a society for banking on the principles of a mutual benefit association, the shareholders will have a preference in the enjoyment of such benefits as the bank can legitimately afford. • Special Deposits for shorter or longer periods than six months will be received on such terms as may be arranged in each particular case. n Drawing or Current Accounts—One per - cent. Interest, reckoned from day to day, will bo allowed en all balances constant for six months, of 100/. and upwards ; and two per cent. on all such balances exceeding 2001. ; but the permanent maintenance of any balance will not be insisted on, when the party has not also a dis count account. Cash Credit Accounts will be granted to respectable parties on personal security, or such guarantees as may be satisfactory to the Bank. A commission of one per cent, half-yearly will be charged on the amount of the credit, but interest (5 per cent. per annum) will be debited on the balance only of actual:cash from time to time drawn out by the party alter deduction of the sums paid in. To share holders the commission on cash credits will be but a half per cent. half-yearly. All accounts will be balanced half-yearly. Official receipts will, on the one hand, be given to customers for all sums paid in, and their cheques on the other will be preserved by the Bank till the succeeding half-yearly balance, when the accounts will be certified and the vouchers exchanged, except in cases where par. ties may specially wish for a different arrangement. Advances or Loans en Promissory Notes with marketable securi ties readily convertible, will be made at rates proportioned to the nature and value of the security in each case. Discounts of Bills of Exchange willbe made at the rates of the day; but only to parties having drawing accounts, and keeping balances of not less than one-fourth of the amount of their discounts. All Bills for Discount must be lodged daily before 12 noon, and not called for till after 2 P.M. Remittances will be made to, and Bills collected in, any place in England, Scotland, or Ireland, or on the Continent of - Europe, where there is a banker; as also in America, the West Indies, India, and China. Dividends, &c., will be received for shareholders or customers, without charge. No charge will be made for keeping accounts ; nor any fee vier gratuity allowed to be received from a customer or applicant by any one in the Bank's employment. Forms of application from shareholders or depositors for new shares, or from parties desirous to open accounts, will be supplied at the Bank, or sent by post to any who may require them.

In the Metropolis there is little provision for scientific and artistic entertainments. The.Panopticon _is formed to supply this defect, and will afford the most interesting, intellectual, and, at the sane time, moral exhibition in the several branches of natural philosophy, industry, and the tine arts, ever before submitted to public inspec- tion. Her Most Gracious Majesty " being desirous of encotiraging this laudable design;" has granted her Royal Charter, incorporating the Company, thereby rendering every individual Shareholder free from personal responsibility for the acts, debts, or other engagements of the Company. No Shareholder, in fact, can by any possibillity lose more than his stock or share in the capital, namely, 101. per share. During the hours of exhibition, every holder of ten shares will be entitled to a free admission ; and every holder of twenty-five shares, will have the further privilege of introducing a friend. The Panopticon has been brought under the notice of men of busi ness, who, having entered closely into the necessary details of cal culation, and allowing for contiogencies, have confidently stated that a dividend of 101. per cent per annum may easily be realised to the Proprietors. After payment of the deposit of I/. per share, two months' notice will be given of each call of 11. pee share, and it is believed that not more than five calls will be required. Interest at the rate of 41. per cent. per annum, will be allowed, until the opening of the Institution, on the 61. per share paid in advance. Applications for prospectuses and for the remaining chartered shares, to be made to Messrs. Edward and Alfred Whitmore, Stock and Share Brokers 17, Change-alley, Cornhill ; or to the Secretary, No. 428, Strand. By order of the Council, E. MARMADUKE CLARKE, Managing Director. NEW WORK BY DR.

EYEBROWS MUSTACHIOS, and WHISKERS produced in a few weeks, and Baldness removed and prevented, by the use of a RIAISTONE'S AROMATIC REGENERATOR. • - If you are in want of that beautiful adornment of the human figure, a natural supply of human hair, obtain through the post, or of any wholesale or retail chemist or druggist, or perfumer, an 11s. bottle of Grimstene's Aromatic Regenerator. This is an essential spirit, drawn from aromatic herbs and flowers (grown at his Her bary, Ilighgate), which has been long known to the nobility and gentry, by whom it is highly appreciated for its manifold virtues, too numerous to be set forth in an advertisement, but may be read in.his pamphlet, in which the bottles are enclosed. , - - Each pamphlet has the signature of William Grimstone, Merchaet, Herbary, Highgate, and will be found at page 11, under the copy of Mrs. Weekly's Letter to the Editor of the "Times" newspaper, 7th of August, 1846. . . . This pamphlet is forwarded through the pest, en receiving two postage stamps. The Aromatic Regenerator can be forwarded through the post on receiving a post-office ordelor 4s. 6d., 7s. Bd., or 128., which in clades the postage with the age. The I Is. size contains four of the 4s. A few of its many virtues,) as thousands can prove, are published In the pamphlet enclosed with each bottle. Reader, reflect for a few minutes, and if you are 40 years of age you will remember the thousands of blind you meet with in your walks, others with various coloured eye-shades ; indeed, such was the demand for eye-shades, that it was a business. What has re moved those sightless beings, and given place to a straightforward, clear-sighted people (the climate is the same)? I'll tell you the cause —the universal use of Grimstone's Eye Snuff i and because it cured Ophthalmia, Gutta Serena, Cataract, Nervous Headach, and Deaf ness, the Lords of the Treasury directed it to be denominated a medi cine, and to be stamped. Although this advanced its character, 67 cases of cure being proved by the informers, still it was an act of oppression ; as in 1825 the Solicitor of Stamps, Godfrey Sykes, Esq., altered the label, and sanctioned its sale under order of the Lords of the Treasury; the letter of protection, signed by Herries, Esq., to Mr. William Grimstone, bearing date 18th February, 1525. This was on account of its curative qualities, being sold at that time iu canis ters, within the reach of every poor family. But under this order of Government it is obliged to be stamped.

THE LATE SIR JOHN BARROW, BART.—The cere mony of laying the foundation stone of the monument to the memory of this esteemed gentleman took place on the Hill of Road, near ITlverston, on Wednesday last. The ceremony was numerously attended, the trowel for the purpose being in thee hands of the eldest son of the deceased, Sir George Burrow. The humble thatched cottage at Dragley, the birthplace of the deceased, was tastefully decorated, and his alma muter, Town Bank School, was festooned with flowers, and flags were flying from the belfry. Peter Pearson, lately residing at Juniper-green, in the county of Edinburgh, was placed at the bar, chatged with murdering George Wilson, surgeon, and Jean Ritchie or Wilson, at Juniper-green, on the • night of the 17th or morning of the 18th March last. . The prisoner, who is a stout-built robust man, ap parently between forty and fifty years of age, was placed manacled at the bar, and was carefully guarded by three police-officers. lie wore a morose and sullen aspect, and, with his head sunk forward on his breast, he manifested not the slightest interest in the pro ceedings, and appeared utterly unconscious of what was going on. Mr. Dees, Mr. Montgomery Bell, and Mr. Mait land appeared for the Crown ; and Mr. Robert Robertson and Mr. G. R. Ogilvie for Pearson. On the prisoner being placed at the bar, Mr. Robertson, on his behalf, pleaded insanity in bar of trial. He stated that he had known the pri soner—who had been a tenant of his—for upwards of ten years, and so far as his judgment entitled him to form an opinion, the prisoner had been an insane person, ever since he knew him. In the year 1838 he took up the religious notion, founded upon an us passage of Scripture, e th rr a o t ne h o e omutgehrptrettaotioanbaonfdoan his father's house He accordingly . left his father end his family, and never agtp returned to the house. After -leaving his honM4 . 1838, he all,Piloted himself till 1843, when he came to him (Mr. Robert,son), as his in ary of 'calling upoa him imme to di p a r te ot l e a c il t d h lo im rd, aga for ie t a h t e se p m u r e p i o m s e a g encroach ments upon his property, but finding them untenable, he (Mr. Robertson) bad declined to do anything in the matter. On that occasion he became perfectly furious, and he was in consequence sent to the Asylum at Morningside. He remained in that institution for two years and eight months, and was liberated on a medical certificate, in the autumn of 1846. Since that period Pearson had never supported himself, and had never been able to settle at any business or trade. He was originally a mason, but he had been entirely supported by his fa mily. In March last the events recorded in the in dictment took place; and he trusted to be able to prove that on the 18th of March he was perfectly insane, and that he was still in that condition. Professor Miller was then called in, and stated that he (Professor Miller) had no doubt that he was at that moment a dangerous madman. Dr. Spittal thought him a dangerous madman. Lord Moncrieff said he supposed that the Court could come to no other conclusion than that the pri soner at the bar was not a fit person to go to trial on the charge against him. Lords Cockburn and Ivory concurred. The deliverance of the Court was then read, to the effect that as the prisoner at the bar was not a proper object for trial, the diet be deserted pro loco et ten:- pore ; and that he be conveyed to the prison of Edin burgh, and taken thence to the general prison at Perth, to be there detained subject to the future orders of the Court. The prisoner was then removed from the bar.— Edinburgh Advertiser. A very alarming and destructive fire broke out shortly before daybreak on Saturday m orning in the FIRES AND LOSS OF LIFE. premises belonging to Mr. J. R. Spencer, a carpenter and builder, carrying on business at No. 50, Jamaica street, Commercial-road-East. Mr. Spencer, his wife, and family, made an attempt to escape by the front-door. While in the act of opening the door the flames completely prostrated the proprietor and one of his sons. Their cries for assistance having reached the constable, he forthwith broke open the doer, and succeeded in saving the lives of the whole of the resi dents. Mr. Spencer, however, and a boy, were se verely burnt. Owing to the inflammable nature of the stock within the building, the house was, in less than a quarter of an hour in flames from' bottom to top, and before an engine had time to get to the scene the two-houses on either side, occupied res pectively by Mr. S. D. Jones, a butcher (No. 49), and Mr. W. H. Halsey, a painter and Glazier (No. 51), had taken fire. For some time the destruction of the greater part of the street appeared certain, and the residents commenced removing their furniture to a more distant place for protection . Fortunately an abundant supply of water was obtained from the East London Company's mains, from which the firemen, under the direction of Mr. Fogo, the dis • trict foreman, set their engines to play, and they eventually , succeeded in extinguishing the flames, but not until Mr. Spencer's property, including the work shops behind his dwelling, were all but destroyed, and the premises of Mr. Jones, the butcher, and Mr. Halsey, the painter, &c., much burnt, and the furni ture belonging to both parties severely damaged by hasty removal. Mr. Spencer was insured in the Union Pire-office, Mr. Jones was insured in the same, and Mr. Halsey was similarly protected by an assurance in the Phenix Fire-office. On Saturday afternoon the neighbourhood of Tooley-street, South wark, was painfully excited o w i ng to a fire, which unfortunately was attended with a loss of life, break ing out in the private residence of Mr. 11. Bunn, No. 11, Brook-square, in the before-mentioned street. The cause of this fire has been traced to a spark flying from the grate in the first-floor front, and set tingofwearfionugr years of age apparel in flames. At ti b ty oy unfortu natelyabout happened to be in the room, and befor e b e could run away the flames encircled his body, an d h e t at period a na n a fell in the midst of them. Several persons on seeing the smoke issuing from the window and hearing the screams of the poor child rushed up to render assist ance ; they succeeded in confining the fire to that part of the house in which it commenced, but the child was burnt almost to a cinder. A medical gentleman was soon in attendance, but not in time to be of any assistance, life being quite extinct. CRICKET. MARYLEBUN ONE IVERSITY CLUB OF CAM AN-D-BRIDGE. GROUND v. THE This annual , contest and the first match of the Mary lebone Club was brought to a conclusion on Fenner's new ground, adjoining Parker's Piece, on Friday even ing. It will be seen that in the list of the representa tives of the University there were but four of the gen tlemen who were engaged in the contest of 1849, namely, Messrs. Blore, F. Walker, Barnet and Edwards.- In the match of last year the Cantabs made an easy vic tory, seeing, that they gained the day by ten wickets. This year it will be found that they have lost by 41 runs, and yet the eleven of the Marylebone was not nearly so strong in respect of the gentlemen as on the previous occasion.

' • , , r... "r Another atrocity has been comtnitted by the Affree dees near Kohat. Dr. Healy, of the Bengal army, lately posted to the Ist Punjaub Cavalry, now sta tioned at Kohat, was proceeding to join that regiment by the eastern pass, which was supposed to be still open, when on the 20th of March, within a few miles of Kohat, he was set upon by the hill men, his groom and grasscutter killed on the spot, and himself so se verely wounded that he died immediately after reach ing Kohat, whither he was carried by Captain Daly, who went to look after him with a party the moment he heard of the attack. The fatal wound was a gash in the skull eight inches long. The true cause of the Affreedees rising is stated to be as follows :—The Affreedees have from time im memorial been allowed to receive salt at the rate of four maunds per rupee. The Board of Administra tion ordered that they should be supplied at four rupees per maundl This, at Colonel Lawrence's re quest, was lowered to one rupee per mauad—making them pay in salt-tax more than was allowed for keeping open the road. A detachment of the Bengal army, consisting of a wing of the 10th Native Infantry and two guns, has met with a reverse in Oude ; they had been ordered to aid the King of Oudes's forces in coercing a refrac tory Zemindar, who had taken refuge in a fort named Beitah, where he successfully resisted the attack of the combined forces. Our loss consisted of Lieute nant E. D. Elderton and 10 men of the 10th Native Infantry killed, and 25 wounded; of our artillery, 11 men and 1 gun; and 70 men of the King of Oude's troops. The garrison lost only eight men, and evacuated the fort during the night of the 28th of March. Sir C. Napier has been lately much indisposed, but his energy as a reformer appears undiminished. He has lately issued a General Order on the subject of the very numerous applications for leave of absence made by officers during the bot weather, refusing to allow officers to be away from their men in that season except in case of illness. In confirming the sentence of a court-martial held on a field officer, who had entered into a correspondence concerning an order_ issued by a superior authority, instead of at once obeying it, Sir Charles remarks, "those who imagine this army is a debating society will find themselves very much mistaken." The Nisam's dominions were icr their usual state, the rest of India is tranquil.. An error in excess has occurred in the distribution of the Sinde prize money; the overdrawn amount has been ordered to be refunded in six monthly in stalments. It is stated that Sir C. Napier's share of the sum to be refunded will amount to 2,0001. Mr. Hamilton , the resident at Indore, has been most fully and honourably acquitted of the charge preferred against him by his assistant, Captain Harris, whose conduct in the matter is most strongly condemned by the Governor-General. Captain Harris is dismissed from his civil appointment, and remanded to his regiment. Five of the native subordinates of the Sudder Court at Agra have been tried, and convicted of cor rupt practices, and sentenced, three to four years' imprisonment, one to three years', and one to two years'. Cholera has broken out with virulence in the European Artillery barracks at Bombay. The second battalion of Artillery, now in these barracks, are to be moved thence into tents pitched for them on the esplanade of the fort. Lady DalhouSie, accompanied by Major Fane, Aids-de-Camp, and Dr. Grant, passed through Meerut on Wednesday, the 3d inst. Her Ladyship arrived at Mussoorie on the 6th of April, and thence will march across the mountains to Simlah. The Governor-General left Calcutta on the 15th inst. for the Upper Provinces and Simlah. His Lordship and suite will proceed in carriages drawn and pushed by bearers. It has been finally determined to remove Mr. Pat-. ton from the chief magistracy of Calcutta, the Go vernor-General having confirmed the decision of the Bengal Government upon the report of the commis sioners. It is said that Mr. Patton is to be appointed judge at Bard wan. Mr. Blunt, of the Bengal civil service, late senior member of the Board of Salt and Opium, has been arrested for debt. The Commander-in-Chief was making the tour of the stations of the lullunder Doab, and intended proceeding by Kote Kangra and the Hill route to Simlah, where he was expected by the 22d or 23d of April. The Hon. Sir Christopher Rawlinson, appointed Chief Justice of her Majesty's Supreme Court at Madras, has arrived at that presidency. Trade at Bombay continued dull, with no imme diate hope of improvement. Freights only 1/. 18s. to 2/. to Liverpool, and 2/. ss, to London, and still declining. CHINA. ♦ correspondent at Hong-Kong, whose letter is dated March 30, writes as follows : The Peninsular and Oriental Company's steamer Malta reached this on the night of the 19th, bringing dates from England to the '24th of January. The only important intelligence to communicate is the death, on the 25th of February, of the Emperor of China, Tau-Kwang (the Lustre of Reason), in the 69th year of his age and the 30th of his reign. The Foreign Consuls at Shanghae received from the au thorities there, on the 20th of March, an official notice that his Majesty the Emperor " had departed upon the great journey, and had mounted upwards on the dragon to be a guest on high." The nomination of a successor rests always with the Emperor, and before his death Tau-Kwang de creed that his fourth and only surviving son should succeed him. He ascended the throne the day of the Emperor's death, and is to reign under the title of Sze-king. He is only 'l9 years of age. Keying, the former Viceroy at Canton, is appointed his principal guar dian, and will no doubt hold a high and an influential position in the Cabinet. It is not likely that any material change in the policy of the Government will take place, but from the enlightened character of Keying and his know ledge of foreigners the tendency of any new measures will probably be towards a more liberal course. The customs and prejudices of the people, and their tran quillity will of course, however, always occupy the chief consideration. On the 23d inst. her Majesty's screw sloop Rey nerd, Captain Cracroft, recaptured, from pirates, a little out of this harbour, three fishing junks lately taken from the owners, some of whom had been wounded and killed. The pirates had transferred their guns, firearms, and spears to their prizes, being better adapted for their purposes, and had just re ceived a reinforcement of men, ammunition, and provisions, from this settlement. Such is the charac ter and employment of the Chinese population of this island. Of the pirates, 15 were brought in prisoners, 15 are supposed to have been drowned, and the re mainder, about 20, escaped. It is said that the formidable pirate chief, Shap-en tzei, has made terms with Seu, Viceroy of Canton, and is now holding some office under Government. Chin-Apoo is supposed to be in the north collecting and organizing another force. The Reynard, it is understood, leaves next month for Pekin, with a letter to the Emperor from his Ex.. cellency Mr. Bonham. This was determined on before the intelligence of the death of the Emperor Tau-Kwang was received. The Bishop of Victoria arrived yesterday in the Sir George Pollock. At Canton all is quiet. The favourable accounts of tea from England have nearly cleared the market of the quantity remaining on hand at 2 to 3 ts. ad vance. The excess of export of all kinds from China to this date, compared with the same period last year, is 6,000,0001 b. Our advices from Shanghae are down to the 20th of March. The population of the town and neigh bourhood of Shanghae were suffering from severe famine, consequent upon the late inunclgions, and it L was lured that pestilence might follow. DEATH OF THE EMPEROR OF CHINA. (From the Overland Register of March 29.) •The past month has been marked by two conspi cuous events. The Emperor of China died on the 25th of February last, having survived the Empress Dowager, whose decease was recorded on the 23d of the previous month, only thirty•three days. He is succeeded by his fourth or eldest surviving son, a youth nineteen years of age, who will reign under the title of Sze-king. The present event is likely to cause important changes, both political and commercial, in our re lations with this empire, as it will probably bring Keying, hitherto the principal guardian of the heir apparent, into a more influential post in the Cabinet, if not at once into the Premiership. We must, however, reserve all speculation upon these matters for the present. Meantime we may remark, that the legalization of the sale of opium, both as a source of revenue in helping the new Government through its formidable financial difficulties, and towards set tling a long vexed and dangerous question, will pro bably be one of the first measures submitted to the new sovereign. The death of the Emperor Tau-kwang is said to have been hastened, if not caused, by a fright he received during a recent conflagration within bis palace. The second affair we have to record is the capture of three piratical vessels by her Majesty's steamer Reynard, on the 23d instant. It occurred at the en trance of the bay, and within sight of the western point of the city Victoria. Three junks and fourteen prisoners were brought in. The latter are waiting their trial at our next criminal sessions, and have been identified as part of the gang of pirates who captured the informants' fishing boats and murdered part of their crews off Macao the week before. It is indeed a pleasing feature in the new *line, not only that the Chinese Commissioner points out to us the resort and gathering of pirate fleets, and entreats the co-opera tion of our flag, but even a solitary act of piracy can not now be committed within a circle of fifty miles without information of the fact being immediately conveyed to the Hong-Kong Government, if any one of the victims is left alive to carry the tale. It is reported that Shap-en-tzei, and several of his followers, have surrendered themselves to the Commissioner, and have not only received free par dons, but rank and office, for future service to Go• vernment ! The report, we learn, has been fully authenticated. Two trading steamers, one English and the other American, have been prohibited from carrying cargo in Canton river. This is looked upo❑ by the repre sentatives of both powers as a breach of treaty on the part of the Chinese authorities, and pending the settlement of the question, the steamers are lying on demurrage. We regret to announce that the population of the town and neighbourhood of Shanghae are suffering from a severe famine, consequent upon the late inun dations. It is too much to be dreaded that the scourge of pestilence will follow as usual ; meantime the most humane efforts are being made by the British and foreign residents to alleviate the cruel sufferings by which they are surrounded. A subscription, set on foot here by the Roman Catholic padres, for relief of their Christian congregations in the neighbourhood of Shanghae is, likewise, being liberally responded to. Canton continues quiet, and Hong-Kong perfectly healthy COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. BOMBAY. IMPORT MARKET. There bas been considerably more business done in this market since the date of our last (April 3) than &ming the previous fortnight; it has been large for this season of the year as respects Manchester goods, and we must add that prices of th"se last have not given way farther fo'r the present. Foreig❑ and up country dealers have appeared in this market in fewer numbers than usual . throughout the entire season, and latterly there has been no speculation in the bazaar. Stocks in general are large, and we consider that only a mouth of the fair season now remains for business. Metals—ln these we continue to note the ordinary amount of transactions; but in some instances, it will be seen, at lower prices than those last reported. There is a large stock of South American copper at market, and the demand for that article not active. Cotton Manufactures—As has been remarked above, the prices of these in general have not given way far ther for the present, and transactions have been consi derable. In gray madapollams, medium quality, ray 50,000 pieces at Ir. 12a. to 2r. 6a. per piece; 15,000 to 20,000 pieces of gray ahirtings, 40 in. at 3r. Ba. to 4r. 6a. per piece; of gray jaconets, say 30,000 pieces, at Ir. 6a. to 2r. 8a; domestics and T cloths, each, to nearly the same extent, at 2r. I la. to 3r. sa. per piece. For bleached goods there has also been inquiry, skirtings eind madapollama having each been sold to the extent of about 15,000 pieces, at 4r. 2a. to 6r. 10a. for the former, and Ir. 15a. to 3r. 6a. for the latter. Of white jaconets the sales of the fortnight may have been 8,000 to 20,000 pieces, at 2r. Ba. to 4r. per piece. Turkey red plain cloths have been sold to some extent at Br. to Br. 4a. per piece. In printed, Scotch, and fancy goods generally, there is oven less doing than before. Yarn—Nos. 20, 30, and 40 mule aro in demand, and low in stock. Other numbers are rather overstocked, as is also the case with respect to water of all numbers, ex cept 40, which is scarce. There is at the same time a fair inquiry for both; but less for coloured yarns, owing no doubt to the absence of dealers from the north who usually purchase these. Woollens—The folio ing sales are mentioned:— _ _ 1,175 yards of cloth at 2 — rupees 5 annas per yard. 2,300 „ at 1 rupee 12 annas per yard. 1,150 ~ ~ at 1 rupee 6 annas per yard. Beer—No Bass or Allsopp in the market at present; but consignments of each are daily expected. We do not hear of anything doing in other brands. Cochineal—Our quotations remain as before, and do not hear of any transactions. EXPORT MARKET. Cotton—There is so little cotton at market now for sale that it is difficult to give correct quotations founded on recent transactions. The tendency of late advises from England has been to reduce the pride here; but as we have just said there is very little doing. As remarked in our last circular, considerable parcels are in course of delivery to purchasers in terms of contracts entered into some months ago. It is now finally understood that the out•turn of the northern crops will fall considerably short of those of last year. Opium—Very little is changing hands; but consider able quantities are going forward on owners' accou❑t. We quote prices as before, say 1,240 to 1,275 rupees per chest. Coffee—The Malabar crop continues to be freely taken up on arrival. Pepper—sales of Butaole are reported at 59r. per candy. FREIGHTS. These to Liverpool are in little request, and the rate has accordingly declined to 1/. 17s. 6d. to 2/. per ton. To London we quote the rate of the day at 2/. ss. to 2/. 10s. per ton. To China, Mir. to 11r. per candy. MONEY-MARKET AND EXCHANGE. The money-market continues easy, and gold becoming cheaper in this market (where it is not a legal tender) than it has been for years. We quote stock generally as follows: BANE AND OTHER SNARES. Bank of Bombay—B.l,ooo 6 per cent. div., 16 to 17 per c O r iental Bank ...... 500 7 do., pm.

For some short time after departure of last mail there was a fair demand for most of the staple articles of im port at advancing rates, and a prospect of such being upheld generally obtained. The arrival of the Mary Ann Folliat on the 23d, and the Albion on the 24th last month, threw into the market heavy supplies of piece goods, which were subsequently increased by the arrival of considerable quantities of Long Cloths re-shipped from Shanghae to this market, both of which circum stances caused some anxiety on the part of holders of Piece Goods to realise. Prices gave way, and dealers became little desirous to increase their stock. The Ben tinck, arrived from Shanghae, brought from that place some 130,000 pieces Shirting. Importers, however looking at the high rates which were ruling in England at the departure of the 24th January mail, are generally firm in holding for advanced rates, and it is expected that a good business will be done during the months of April and May. The Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company have placed the Lady Mary Wood on the line between Hong-Kong and Shanghae, which, opening up a quicker communication between the great southern and northern ports, will cause these markets to assimilate more than they have hitherto done. TEA REPO/tr.—The Lady Mary Wood, which arrived here on the Bth lust, brought dates from London to the 7th of January; and so soon as the advance which had taken place in that market became known, nearly the whole of the Congous which remained in stock were eagerly bought up at an advance of from 2 to 3 taels on previous rates. Settlements to a large extent have also been made of scented teas and common Canton gunpow ders, and the stock of all descriptions at market is now unusually small. Congou—The settlements of the month amount to some 40 chops, and there remain on the market not above 3,600 chests ; the prices asked for these are taels 18 to 20 f or sound common, and taels 14 for ordinary quality. Souchong—ls quoted a tael higher than last month, some twelve chops have been settled for, leaving fifteen in the hands of Seamen. Common to fair is quoted tads 14 to 20. Flowrey Pekoe—ln this sort there have been not tans actions, and the market is nearly cleared. Ankoi, Ningyong and Oolong—Some 13,500 packages have been settled for-10,000 being Oolong at an ad vance of 1 tael ; 2,000 packages of the last remain at market. Plain Orange Pekoe has been sold to extent of a few hundred packages, at tads 15 5 to 16 s—leaving about 600 half-chests. Plain Caper—None at Market. Scented Teas—Of orange Pekoes some 2,000 half chests have been settled for and 10,000 boxes at taels 16 to 18 for common to fine. Medium quality has lately been taken at an advance of from 2to 3 taels. Capers have been purchased to extent of 2,500 boxes at 16 to 18 tads—the stock of both kinds small. Green Teas—During the month the settlements amount to 42,000 packages, taken chiefly for American account. The quantity remaining is small-300 pack ages fine Twankay, 300 ditto fine skin, 800 ditto Hyson, 4,000 ditto young Hyson, 500 Imperial and Gunpowder. Common young elysons are 1 tael, and the medium kinds 2 to 3 Niels higher. Cargo young Hyaons are quoted 19 to 20 taels, fair to good 24 to 2s, and fine and finest 34 to 50. Canton Greens have been purchased very largely, say 4,000 half-chests and 5,000 boxes Gunpowder at tails 14 to 22 for common to superior, and 2,000 half•chests young Hyson at taels 10 to 15. The stock of old re maining is very small. The new tea is beginning to come to market. Export to date are—Black, 42,068,800; against last year, 36,199,700. Green, 5,952,500; against last year, 7,260,600. Total taels, 43,021,300; against last year, 43,460,300. Freights—To Great Britain : 31. 3s. per ton of cubic feet, or 20 cwt. To Out Ports : ss. per ton additional. Rates of Exchange and Prices of Bullion—On Eng land : Six months' sight, 4s. 4fd. to 4s. 6d. per dollar. On Calcutta: Private bills, at 60 days' sight, Co.'s Rs. 222 per 100 dollars. Company's accepted bills, Co.'s Rs. 218 per 100 dollars. On Bombay: Private bills, at 30 days' sight, Co.'s Rs. per 100 dollars; Gold, 22.80 dollars per tael of 100 touch ; Sycee Silver, for duty 7 per cent. premium ; Carolus Dollars, old head, 8 per cent. premium; Republican Dollars, 1 per cent. premium. SFIANGHAE MARKET REPORT. By the Lady Mary Wood we have dates from this market to the 20th instant. But a small trade has been doing during the previous four weeks in English manu factures. It was expected that the extreme scarcity of food which existed, which was causing the greatest distress to the poorer classes of the Chinese commu nity, would operate in causing depressing in the ge neral trade. Freight to England-31., and tonnage abundant. Exchange-4s. sd. to 4s. 6id. Vessels Loading for London—The Anne Jane and Lady Sale. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. PORTSMOUTIT, SUNDAY.—The Birkenhead, iron steam troop-ship, Commander J. A. Stevens, arrived here yesterday with the depOt of the 16th Foot, from Guernsey. They landed at the dockyard, and took quarters pro. tern. in Anglesey Barracks, Portsea, which they leave to-morrow for Hythe Barracks, near Sandgate. On the arrival of the Birkenhead in the roads off Jersey the Cuckoo steam-vessel, Commander Dumaresq, was employed in conveying the depot of the 26th Regiment (brought from Cork by the Birkenhead) from that ship to the pier. She had re ceived about 300 of the regiment with their knap sacks and muskets, and had two pilots on board. On the passage to the shore it was observed that a beacon denoting the position of the Huitres (or oyster) Rocks was not to be seen. 'The pilots were making some remarks upon it when Commander Dumaresq or dered the speed of the Cuckoo to be eased, and most fortunately he did so, for directly after she struck with great force. It then rtquired all the exertions of the naval and military officers to prevent the troops going to the aide and jumping overboard. Boats were soon along side, but would have been swamped by the men if their officers had not set the example of mere cou rage. No lives were consequently lost, nor any one injured. The Cuckoo was with difficulty got along side the pier, and the troops got out, when the water rose above the fires in the engine-room, and soon after she sank. She has since been weighed and pumped out, and is on the slip to be patched up, and brought here to be docked. A court of inquiry will be held. The royal yachts are ordered to be in readiness to embark the Court on Wednesday afternoon from Gos port for the Isle of Wight. The Fire Queen steam-packet, Lieutenant Jones, will be paid off here to-morrow. Sir William Burnett, the director-general of the medical department of the navy, is making his half yearly inspection of the Admiral medical departments connected with this port. His official visit will ter minate on Tuesday. The Dauntless steam-frigate is ordered to the Channel for a five days' cruise, in company with the Stromboli. The Comet steam-vessel, Commander Otter, went out yesterday to try her engines. She will be ready for service to-morrow. WOOLWICH, MAT IQ.—The Resistance, 42, troop ship, Master-Commander Bradshaw, is ordered to be towed from Sheerness te Woolwich to embark two companies of Royal Artillery, one for a passage to Newfoundland, and the other for Canada.
