Obienina LONDON, TUESDAY, AUGUST 20, 1850. It is at all times satisfactory to witness the ex istence of a' thorough understanding and warm cor diality between a popular representative and his constituents. Such feelings are alike honourable to all pirties—to " the one," as showing that he has justly merited the confidence repo6ed in him by faith fully and efficiently discharging the arduous duties incidental to his high position—to " the many," as proving ,that they duly appreciate the exer tions which have—bzen made on their behalf, and that they feel . grateful to - the man who has truly represented their wants and wishes in the Imperial Parlitment, who, while he has taken just and enliOltened views on those questions of general policy that affect the entire community, bas been peeulisrly diligent in all matters relating to the locality-in - Which he is (-specially interested. In the present state of parties it seldom falls to the lot of aey member to satisfy all claases among his constitu;mcy. Lie may be well contented if he can maintain, his hold upon former allies, if he has fir feited no portion of the support he had previously ob tained. But it must indeed be a subject of no ordi nary' pride. and self-gratulati on if h e sh ou ld, h ave con cili ,ted opponents without alienating, friends—if he 3h , ould have won golden opinions from those who met' him at the hustings with a manly and,streightforward' opposition, when ignorant of his high qualifications for the legislatorial function!, while he has more I firmly cemented the bonds by which ..he was con- I , = it 4 4 1r ti'e:S I LI netted with those to whose suffrages he was indebted for his seat in the House of Commons, and if he should have achieved these triumphs without any sa crifice of his own convictions and his own indepen dence. Such a person will have little to fear from a dissolution. A general election will carry with it no terrors to induce him to vote contrary to his real opinions, in order to avert the much•dreaded " ap peal to the country." He can, therefore,' be far more useful than another of equal competence, who has not the assurance that under any possible circumstances his seat is safe," that he holds dum se bene gesserit. We have recently perused with great pleasure the accounts contained in many of our Irish contempo raries, of a magnificent entertainment given to the Hon. Gentleman the Member fur Athlone by his constituents. On the termination of his Parliamentary labours, Mr. K.Bocir, before availing himself of the welcome relaxation—the pleasing vaca tion, that is as anxiously coveted by le gislators as by schoolboy, had not hesitated to render an account of his stewardship, and to in quire whether he had not fulfilled the expectations that bad been formed of his conduct—whether his performance in any degree fell short of his promises and undertakings ? The answer to these interroga tories was the banquet to which he alluded, in which men of all creeds and parties, Protestant and Catholic, Whig and Tory, Conservative and Radical vied with each other in friendly rivalry to do honour to their tried and faithful representative. • • The chair was filled by the Protestant Rector, one who, to use his own language, had " early seen the fit ness of Mr. KEOGH, to whose return he was mainly instrumental," while the vice-chair was occupied by the respected parish priest, once the most strenuous opponent, but now one of the fastest friends of the Honourable Gentleman. Along the festive board were seated the most respectable inhabitants of the towd;those wlio took active parte at either side during the election, and those who, trying to maintain poll.- ~tical neutrality, had formerly abstained from regis tering their votes, but who then pledged themselves - to do so, in order to ensure the return of Mr. KEOGH . on all future occasions. The speech of the Hon. Gentleman, on returning thanks for the high compliment that had been paid to him, was characterised by the ready wit, the grace and eloquence for which he is so distinguished in Par liament, and which has given him the well-merited reputation of being one of the most skilful Idebaters and rising aspirants for legislatorial laurels in the House of Commons. He alluded in a peculiarly fe 4icitous manner to his conduct on questions of local interest, and the relationship between a Member and his constituents. The moment he was returned as representative fur Athlone he buried in oblivion the opposition he had received ; he only remembered that his constituents, whether friends or enemies, had the first claim on his services and these services were f ree l y p l ace d a t th e i r disposal , and he spared no exertions to benefit the borough. These exertions were truly valuable, and the electors, even those who differed on minor points, discovered the importance of securing such a representative. It is unnecessary to dwell on the topics of local interest so happily alluded to by the Honourable Gentleman in. his eloquent address."! ; But there are _ . . points of general interest which every Irish —every British constituency—must consider of vital importance to the welfare and prosperity of the community at large. The "profession of faith" on these deeply interesting topics may serve as a model for other Members. .Our space will not permit us to do more than touch upon the great cause of " legal reform," to which Mr. KEOGH has proved so effi cient an auxiliary ; but we cannot refrain from dwelling at greater length upon his views and opinions on free trade, tenant-right, extension of the franchise, and the foreign policy of the country—a policy which was so unfairly attacked and so nobly vindicated in the popular branch of the Legislature. On the first of these subjects—" the great question, whether man who has been ordained to eat bread in the sweat of his brow," shall eat that bread taxed or untaxed, he stated, - epiaking of the time when he came to the hustings— " I then believed, and I still believe, that this great country *as by the timely carrying of those free-trade measures saved from those political convulsions which have swept Europe. I saw nothing in three years of famine to Ether ray uoinions, r 9reitt i aturjalimdttitsja : _ operation a code of laws, fratsied, I say, with the direct purpose of increasing artificially the incomes of the higher classes it the expense of the toiling, struggling artisans in every gradation throughout this great com munity. Lim I any reason to change my opinion now ?" And he pertinently asked— " Who is the man daring —nay, I will use a stronger expression —audacious enough to ask the Parliament of England to tax the food of the people ? Protection indeed ! Protection to keep up rents which were created by war prices, in those sanguinary - conflicts which we maintained in Europe at the expense of those hundreds of millions of debt, which are now pressing down the energies of the country. I say the first protection we shall all demand is, protection for the lives of the people. I value:the life of a fellow-creature far more than all their incomes. I will first guard with a jealous eye the food of the millions, and then if there is to be protection, let it befor the industry and capital of the tenant, who will never improve the soil so long as the fruit of his exertions is not guaranteed by some legislative enactments. I say that God and nature intended that the soil should grow and increase in culti vation, and that the man who, by his labour and by his capital, increased the value of the soil, should have a property in that increased value. That is the inalienable right of the tenant, that is • tenant-right,' and that I promise you I will labour to obtain for him." These are just and liberal sentiments, honourable alike to him by whom they were promulgated, and to those by whom they were received with rapturous and enthusiastic applause. His opinions on the ex tension of the Parliamentary franchise and the foreign. policy, which induced him to lend a disinte rested and independent support to Lord PALMERSTON, on the recent question of " confidence," were alike laudable. To other Liberal Members we shall now only say, " Go ye and do likewise," and you will reap similar rewards in the approbation of your own consciences, and the continued Support and confi dence of your respective constituencies. Although the intelligence brought by the last Over land Mail from our Indian empire is not of the nature which is commonly called interesting, yet it cannot but be considered as of great importance, as showing a defective working of the' machinery of Government in that country, which may, one day or other, occa- sion us much loss and much trouble, if not speedily re medied, but for the remedying of which we shall fortu nately have an opportunity afforded us in the course of the next session of Parliament, when the question of the renewal of the charter of the East India Com pany shall come to be discussed. The retirement of Sir CNA/ILES NArIER from the command of the Indian army, brought about as that retirement has been, by a conflict with the Governor-General ,with regard . to • the extent of their respective jurisdictions, is one of the indications of the ' defects to which we have - alluded. Had the respective powers and jurisdidtions of the Governor- General and the Commander-in-Chief been accurately defined, such a conflict as this (a conflict which in the event of a sudden attack from the Afreedeer, or bf a sudden outbreak in the Pun j sub, mad► jeopardise the safety of our empire in the East) could scarcely by posaibility have arisen. It would be well that on the renewal of the charter the- respective jurisdictions of these two high offi:!ers should be so accurately defined as to render such a collision for the future impossible,' or, beiter Still, that recourse should be had to the old practice of consolidating the two offices,. and that every future head of the liidian Government should be, as the Marquis of HASTINGS was, " Gover nor-General and Commander-in-Chief." • We recommend the attentive study of that portion of the intelligence which relates to the murderous plans .of the Afreedees to the members of the Peace Society, whom we advise to reduce their theory to practice, by holding their nett meeting in the passes between Peshawur and : , Kobat, and converting the Afreedees to the doctrines of peace. Ti.e escape of the Seikh prisoners is a circum stance calling for the strictest investigation, and for the ccrid;gn punishMent of those 'who could dispatch such desperate MED, $o slightly guarded. How came it that the persons on board the steamer were unarmed ? How canie it that the steamer her self had not a pivot gun on her deck loaded with canis ter or grape ? Three discharges from such a gun as this would have given a very good account of the Seikh prisoners even after they had gained possession of the boat in which they were confined ; or, having no such gun, how happened it that the persons in command of the steamer did not, when they found the Seikhs had possession of the float, immediately run them down ? An example of this sort made on the spot would be-far more effectual in preventing attempts at escape than fifty recaptures, even although followed by subsequent punishment. It is evident that there is something very wrong in the whole system- of guarding prisoners in India, or we should not so often hear of their escape. We trust that the authorities will cause a searching investigation to be instituted into the circumstances attending this last escape, and will devise some method to prevent the recurrence of such an event for the future. It has always struck us as most impolitic to suffer Indian princes and Indian chiefs whom we may find it necessary to hold in captivity to remain in India. They should be removed either to some of our settlements in Malacca, to Labuan, or, at all events, to Ceylon, so as to inter pose the sea between them and the scene of their former intrigues. Ilad this been done in the case of the Ranee of LAHORE, she would not now have been intriguing against us at the Court of Khatmandoo. We hope that the practice of transportation beyond the ses will be substituted on all future occasions fee imprisonment in cases of Indian prisoners of state. THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris journals of yesterday; The Moniteur publishes the following telegraphic dispatch : " Lons-le-aulnier, August 17, in the evening. "The President of the Republic, who left Lyons thia, morning at nide o'clock arrived here this evening at ten o'clock. Throughout the whole of his passage, the populations assembled to greet him, and everywhere they gave him striking marks of the warmest sympathy." All the journals comment on the remarkable speech of the PRESIDENT of the Republic, at Lyons—all consider it as a complete disavowal of any intention to attempt a coup detail, even the National quotes, and quotes with approbation, the declaration of the PRESIDENT, that he will never make a coup d'etat, but they on the other hand, all agree as to the inten tion of the PRESIDENT is to resist any attempt of any Royalist pretender to restore Monarchy and at the same time to present himself to the people for re-election as PRESIDENT for a prolonged period. The cor respondent of the Constitutionnel clearly indicates this in his letter from Lyons. He says.— " This ,morning the President's speech has been posted up at all the corners of the streets, and has been read with avidity. I loitered amongst some of the groups of people for sake of hearing their observations, and I . noted down a dialogue which I beard, because it renders in the moat exact mariner the effect produced out of doors by the President's speech. After that, said one, ' why should the journals be bothering us every morning with their coups d'etat ? You see he has no intention of the kind.' To which another workman re plied, He is not such a fool as to make coups d'etat. He does not want the like, the. thing will come of itself.' Commentary is unnecessary." The Republican journals protest against any at tempt at the prolongation of the Presedent's powers, as being contrary to the Constitution, and the Legi titnatist journals all declare openly against him. The Opinion Publique threatens him with the vengeance of the Assembly. -The priest-ridden Univers is hor rified at his declaration " that he will save by order the great principles of the French revolution." " Why," says this organ of the admirers of the Inquisition—" Why, this is M. CAUSSIDIERE Over again. As the Prefect of Police made order with disorder, so would Louts NAPOLEON with order save the principles of the revolution." - The Assembles Nationale is bitter in its denuncia tions of the (PRESIDENT, and the Union, the most moderate of the Legitiinatist journals, which has always hitherto supported Louis NAPOLEON, now declares against him. The Union says— " We have not been hitherto either partisans of or op posed to the journey of the President,. but from this moment we do not hesitate to say that this journey ap pears to us to have exercised a favourable influencs on the mind of Louis Ntilklion. In proportion as the Pre sident removed lrom Paris, be more and more under stood the necessity of assuming a clear and defined posi tion. After hearing his speech at the banquet at Lyons, we know what the President wishes, what he desires, and What he hopes. The groundwork, the parent idea of that speech, is nothing but a praise of the French revolution. The 'President of the Republic places himself at the disposal of the country; he re cognises no other law than its will, and he hurls forth an anathema against the parties who do not like him trio tliFini"ttirs:yria'ventt*rirti spired us with excessive terror. Where some people have seen boldness, we have, alas! only seen weakness. However that may he, the declaration of the President is good to point out; we have stoicism enough to rejoice at it, even though the President of the Repub lic, in ace part of his discourse, wished maliciously to direct attention to one important fraction of the majority. The President spoke of guilty pretensions. We could bare wished that he had been more explicit. The ex pression guilty pretensions might, in tact, apply with justice enough is the past conduct of the President him self, to the cherished councillors of Strasbourg and of Boulogne, and perhaps also to the society of the Dix Decentbre, organised, as every one knows, with an hn perialist object. We de not like half words and half allusions. Taking eierything, however,. into account, we decide on applying the expression to oursekes. It is not natural that the President should dis - - avow his best • and probably his only • friends. In return fur •our good will the President must al low us to . say that our party his rio pretension in compatible with the rights of the nation. It knows that the nation is master of its destinies, and it confines itself to respectfully pointing out to it the solution which it considers the best. This situation and this language wits publicly known when the President pretended to impose himself bel et Bien on sovereign France, probably in virtue of his right of birth. This pretebsion, be sides, ie put forth with sincerity enough at the com mencement of his speech; only we find in it a counter part of that sentence of the Chief of the Police under the Provisional Government, wish to make order ,with disorder.' Louis Napoleon has invented a variety to it; he wishes to save by order the great principles of the French revolution. As to self-denial and personal ambition, we take note ,of the disposition of Louis Napoleon ; he pledges himself to set an example, if it is necessary. This expression is sufficient to lere to the Assembly all the necessary liberty when it shall examine, the question of the revision of the Constitution; it may be now certain that the Pre dent will, if necessary, obey the constitution, and that he will imitate, in case of need, the conduct of General Cavaignac, who relinqUished power with self-denial and a noble simplicity. The Assembly will not have to pronounce the judgment of Solomon, for France cannot be' compared to a child whose parentage is doubtful; she has her history, which teaches her from whom she sprung, and from thence proceeds her grandeur; there is no need of an adopted father, when a legitimate one exists," These articles are valuable because they clearly show that a Legitimatist restoration means not merely the restoration of the Count of CEIAMEORD to the throne of his ancestors, but the restoration of the absolutist regime as it existed before 1789, the re storation of a privileged noblesse, the restoration of the taille et corvie, the revival of the degradation of the Ro4urir class, the restoration of the despotism, per- chalice, also of the property of the priests. In no other light can we look upon this protest against any, attempt on the part of Louis NAPOLEON " to save by order the great principles Of-the French revolution The Union publishes the following :—" Some inha bitant& of • Brittany; desitous . Of presenting their homage and the expression, of their devotedness at the feet of the Count de Chambord, have just arrived in Paris. This deputation,; composed of AIM. Mathurin Robert, Guillawile Marie Lernenet, Syl- . vestre Robino, Bazile Gilet, Claude le Yondre , and Maturin Guillemot, farmers ; Pierre le Blerenec, baker, and Joseph le Barb, shoemaker, with MM. G. Macaire de Rougemont, L'Ecuyer de Villars, and G. de Alirabeau, are about to proceed to Wiesbaden. All of them are delighted and proud at being the repre sentatives to the descendant of St.- Louis of their friends of the Morbihan." Brittany, it will be remem bered, is the country of the Chouans, and this deputa tion by farmers and peasants is suspicious. Royalist outbreaks_ in La Vendee have ever been preceded by similar deputations. M. DE CRAMPEAU, the private secretary and friend of M. DE LAMARTINE, died on board the vessel which brought back M. DE LAMAETINE to France two days before her arrival at Marseilles, of a fever brought on by the extreme heat of the season. The artillery of the , National Guard of Langres have been suspended from their functions by the Prefect of the Haute Marne, in consequence of their having refused to assembly under arms the day on which General CASTELLANE passed through the town. The National Guard of Vollone, Chateau Arnoux do Sisteron, and Manosque have been disarmed. Their bayonets were found to have been nee ly sharpened.

BERTRAND DE LHYS, President of the Junta for the arrangement of the debt, has made the following propositions to the delegates of the, foreign holders :—T'nat the Spanish Government shall admit the whole amount of the capital and convert it into 3 per cent., with interest during four years ; that the capital of the coupons shall also be recognised and converted into three per cent. stock, with per cent. interest during four years ; that at the expiration of the first four years the rate of interest on the coupons is to be increased by 1 or 1, in such a manner, that at the end of eighteen years the capital converted shall bear 3 per cent. interest and the coupons 11 per cent. It is said that the delegates do not accept the conditions offered by the Junta, and that in fact they are not altogether to the taste of the Ministry, so that nothing has been decided." A Carlist band has appeared in the Maestrazzo, under the command of a c4becills, surnamed El Mo• negrino. The military authority of Valeecia has sent some detachmenta of troops in different direc tions in pursuit of it. MADRID BOLSA, 14.—Three per Cents., 33 1-16 ' • Five per Cents., 13i money .

It is stated in a letter from Ber li n, of the 17th, that Austria bad sent a dispatch. inviting Prussia to take part in the Diet, but that Prussia would not reply to it. __ According to the Cologne Gazette, the Austrian Cabinet has consented to submit to arbitration the difference between it ar.d Prussia . relative to the passage of the Baden troops by Mentz. Austria is to choose one Power as arbitrator (she will select Ba varia) ; Prussia another ' and the two a third. It is stated in a letter from Brunn of the 12th, in a Vienna journal:That the Count DE CHAMBORD has notified to a M. BENAL, of Froshdorff, that he will not renew the lease of an hotel he had let to him, in consequence of his being a subscriber to the news paper, the Presse, of Brunn. By a royal decree of the 14th, of the Saxon Go vernment, the modification's made in the constitution and the electoral law by the late Chambers are abolished ; and the old constitution and old electoral law are again to come into effect. M. VOGEL, of Leipsic, ez• editor of a Radical paper, completed . a few days ago the period of impri sonment in the fortress of Hohenaspern, in Wurtem burg, to which he was condemned for some offence of the press: but instead of his being released he was given up to the Saxon authorities for participation in tbe revolt of the month of May. DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES, A telegraphic dispatch from Hamburgh of the 17th states that an engagement had taken place on the previous day, off Fredricksort, between a Danish steamer and two gun-boats, and a Holsteiner steamer the Lmwe. Eventually the Danes retired. Their gun-boats caught fire, but the flames were soon ex guished. • We read in the Independance of Brussels, of yes terday. " The news from the Duchies, which were brought to us yesterday by the German journals, are all of a peaceful character. ()a the one hand the army of Schleswig-Holstein is said to have resolved to confine it self to the defence of the territory of Holstein, and on the other General de Krogh, Commander-in-Chief of the Danish army, is said to have received orders to main tain his present positions, end to await the result of ne gotiations. But probably these two statements are not more 'authentic iss character than that given by the News of Hamhurgh, to the effect that the King Frederick VII., in the last Cabinet Council, held at Copenhagen, manifested an intention of resigning power to his suc cessor, so soon as the question relative to the order of succession shall be solved. We must observe, how ever, that our private - correspondence from Hamburgb. in disacCord with the German papers, as regards the negotiations of peace between Denmark and the Duchies, mentions as having obtained a certain degree of credit a rumour that the King will abdicate in favour of his natural heir, the Prince of Oldenburg, in order to aim- Pt) , the question of succession. The morganatic mar riage which the King has just contracted is also consi dered as indicative of this scheme of abdieation. A mo dification of the Ministry has just taken place at Copenha gen. . The Minister of Marine, M. Zarhtmann, has re tired on account of ill health, and is replaced by NI. Ir minguer, but that will modify in no respect the policy of Denmark in the question of the Duchies." ITALY. The,King of SADINIA has returned to Turin. amen at me vourt or me zervites and at the Palace of the Archbishop, are some which tend te throw a light upon the cause of the defeat of the Sardinian troops in Lombardy. A letter in cypher, addressed by FRAPJZONI to the POPE, has been seized. The curates of the quarter of Ballot) and of that of San Dalmazzo have been arrested. Two monks of the Consolata, and the guardian of the monks, the Ma donna of Angels, are also, in prison, and a rigo rous search has been instituted iu many convents, more particularly in that of the Dominicans. It appears that a vast conspiracy exists between some nobles and the parti-pretre to bring the Austrians into Piedmont. The arrest of GONELLA, the advocate, who has long been conspicuous for his intimate association with the Jesuits, tends to confirm these suspicious. His son, Monseignor GONELLA, passed through Turin a few days since, en route for Bel g i um , w h ere h e h as b een appointed !Nuncio by the POPE. It is rather remark ' able that this same advocate GONELLA was the director of telegraphs a few days before the battle of Novara. It will be recollected that General CMIZANOWSKI dispatches which th e Mi n i ster d ec l ares h e has always declared that he n ever rece i ve d certa i n Public opinion a t fi rst suspecte d t h e tele r t a o p h h c m loyalty of the Polish General, but it would appear that the treason was not on his side. The Military Commandant of the city and port of Leghorn, has issued a notification, dated , the 11th, -by which the public are reminded that all cockades or other symbols or combinations of dress, made to com pose the colours of any nation or political party what soever, are prohibited, as well as songs, crowds, and other political demonstrations. Letters from Piacenza, of the 12th, in the Risorgi mento of Turin, announce that political arrests are still in progress throughout the duchy. The Journal of the Two Wellies of the 3d states that the last month has been particularly disastrous in consequence of heavy hail•storms and inundations, by which the crops have been destroyed in many parts of the kingdom. r of g g reat a s t ulal DETERMINED SUICID E OF A FOREIGN GENTLEMAN the consternationyesterday pafternoon gentleman, between a centre t a te of his thrownhe heart tintoin the e s evidently a foreigner, who dischar • a Gardens uineoaart were tdhee.. a loaded pistol through. trees, Round Pond, Kensington Gardens t appears that about the time in question, the report of Gardens. • 8 0l was heard, when James Dunn, of l, Cromwell -road, O r l ) d ist rompton, on looking round, saw the unfortunate gentleman fall on the grass; be instantly hastened to the spot, and f found the gentleman quite insensible, and bleeding trout ' left breast, over the region of the a heart. intot shot wound in his He . only gave a single gasp after the arrival of the witness, ex pired.

The Queen's Hotel at Cheltenham, certainly one of the most perfect and splendid establishments in this country or the continent, is announced, in our columns, to be sold, by public 'auction, by Mr. Robins, under circumstances most advantageous for a purchaser. The building alone cost 40,0001. ; and, as the property is absolutely to be sold, an enterprising manager, possessed of tact and attention to the innumerable duties of his office, cannot fail to realize a handsome independence in a few years. The business of the hotel is now coudw:ted upon the continental style, and is giving universal satisfaction, besides yielding a handsome profit. The opening of the Great Northern Railway is ex pected to shorten the period of communication between Ber wick• upon-Tweed and the metropolis by about an hour; and on a further portion of their line te.ing opened, which will pro bably occur in less than a year, a still greater saving of tune may be expccted. The improvement already effected is how ever considerable, and it has been sugges • • - ted that the Post dice authorities should be memorialised to dispatch the mails to the north of England by the Lew route as early as circumstances will admit. i Sir Frederic Thesiger and family embarked at the St. Katharine's Wharf on Saturday, on board the General Steam Navigation Company's steam-ship, Sir Edward Banks, for Ostend.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS Cl7'l; TWO O'CLOCK. The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were estimated at 3,000 bales, of which 500 American were taken for export, and 500 on speculation. The market closed heavily, and American descriptions were fully id. per lb. lower. The sales comprised 2,250 Ame rican, 200 Pernam and Maranham, at SP. to Sid.; 150 Egyptian, at 81d. to 101.; and 400 Surat, at SJ. to 6id. per lb.—The Share Market was very dull, at lower quotations generally. There are no ship arrivals to•day with later colonial new:. At Amsterdam the Dutch Funds on the 17th instant were steady, but very quiet, and at Frankfort on the same day Austrian Meta Hies were 814 f, and Spanish Three per Cents. 32 15-16 to 33 ,3-16. Fames largely engaged in the East India trade have always been accustomed to govern their operations to a certain 'extent by the financial position of the Honourable Company, and it is therefore par ticularly important that the latter should be sound and steady. Complaints were not unfrcquent some few years hack, that the calculations of the mer chant were seriously disturbed :by the disbursements of the company fur military and other extraordinary pur poses, but these have happily been obviated of late by the trauquillity prevailing. A statement before us gives a clearer insight into the system upon which the directors of the East India Company have proceeded. In a dispatch to the Government of India, dated the 18th of last December, it is shown that from the year 1844 to 1849, both inclusive, the deficiency of remittances from India amounted to 1,472,6861, which having been met by an. increase of the bond debt in England, has not beau yet demanded from the Government in India. For the year 184-50, the requisition was for 3,900,0001., of which 3,000,0001. was obtained by bills drawn here by the company, and 900,0001. by ad vance upon the hypothecation of goods. From the two rail ways the Honourable Company had received 236,400/., which is considered as a remittance by bills, up to the 18th December, and it appears that very soon after the company advanced its rate to ls. l ld, per rupee, and in March last, owing to the continued demand here for bills on India, a further rise to 2s. took place, and instructions were sent out that the rate for advances upon goods hypothecated to the company in India should generally be nearly lel, the rupee be yond, the e x change fixed in London. Exertions having been made in India to complete the remittances requited to be made to the Company's treasury here, an amount in excess of the sum needed, was raised by hy pothecation, and intimation was sent over that the rate had been raised to ls. lid. only; because it had been thought right to make the advance gradual, and prevent any sudden shock to trade, and the directory here were then compelled to write out and state that the applica tions for advances must be checked, as the railway payments have reduced to 200,000/, indepen dently of the company's bills, the amount that will have to be remitted in the current year. The actual esti mate of the payments in England by the Honourable Company for the year 1850 is 3,600,000 1. , and of thi s 400,0001. will probably be paid by the railway compa nies; 3.000,0001. will be met by .t he negotiation Of bills upon India, and 200,000/. by advances on gocds or by bullion remittances. Tbo private advices received from Mexico are more - satisfactory than those previously come to hand, and lead 'to the hope that batter prospects are about to dawn upon the foreign creditors. The new Finance /Sinister war m-. Payne, - who served upon the Committee of Con gress appointed to inquire into the best mode of arranging the debt, and which Committee, it will be remembered, recommended a reduction in the rate of interest from -5 to 3 per cent., and an appropriation of 3,500,000 dollars of the Indemnity money. It is perfectly reasonable to infer, consequently, that M. Payno, as Minister, will be disposed to carry out the arrangement which he formerly advocated. Another circumstance mentioned in the private advice. is encouraging, viz., that Messrs. Manning and Mackin tosh were to receive last month 70,000 dollars more from the tobacco money, having had already 130,000 dollars, and that another 100,000 dollars will be paid next December. Be sides the amount shipped from Vera Cruz by the Tay, for the payment of Abe dividends on the Mexican Debt, the particulars of which were published on the 15th instant, the committee of bondholder, have re ceived bills of lading for the following parcels of specie and bullion, viz.: For 6,235 dolls. from Tampico, par Tay. 2,880,300 dolls. from Guaynas, per Cockatrice. 1,806 doll,. from Mazatlan, per Inconstant. Messrs. Manning and Mackintosh, in Mexico, write respecting the 100,000 dolls. received by them from the Tobacco Company for the bondholders, " that they will be remitted without delay."
