We have received by extraordinary express in anticipation of the Overland Mail, our private correspondence and journals. from Bombay to the 29th March ; Calcutta, 19th Xarch ; Hong Kong, 11th March ; Alexandria, 19th April ; and Malta, 22d April. The following summary is from the Overland Bombay Times of March 29 ; INDIA. Our issue of the 14th March contained intelli gence from Burmah to the 23d February ; our latest intelligence now extends to the 10th March, but brings us little intelligence of importance. Sir John Cheape had marched into the interior in quest of the robber chief Meea-Toon, and the com modore and Captain Tarleton, with a strong force of gun boats, had proceeded by two different creeks or branches of the river, and, on the departure of the steamer, intelligence of the brigand's capture was looked for immediately. General Steele had returned from his sweep into the interior, having successfully accomplished all the objects he had in view. On the 15th of February he had marched from Shway Gyeen, and found the villages on to Kyouk Gee entirely deserted, their inhabitants having slunk into the jungle, from fear of the Bur mese troops ; some of them, having . been allured back by us,, were provided with copies of the pro clamation of mace, which was explained to them, and they returira to their homes. The force ar rived at Kyouk Gee on the 17th—its approach seemed unexpected ; no one came out to meet them, and the gates were thrown open to them without opposition. Guards being set to protect the place, a body of irregular horse was sent out in pursuit of some of the chiefs, said to.have left the preceding night and who were otfly a obAtrt distance_ in advance. The fugitives, a hundred in number, armed with muskets, accompanied by carts con taining women, children, and baggage, were over taken five miles from camp. They surrendered themselves at once, and were permitted at their own request to return to town. The force marched again on the 18th, and reached the Sitang river, a distance of 18 miles, on the 21st ; here they saw a party of 30 armed men, who managed to effect their escape before we could overtake them across the river. The troops now crossed, and. were at once admitted into the town of Tounghoo on the 22d. It was found to be a large square enclosure, surrounded by a wet ditch. The people received them in a most friendly manner, and made over to them the public stores at once. A march of 93 miles had thus been completed in eight days, the people everywhere returning to their homes, and the troops and brigands scampering at our approach. Meantime our deputation continues its journey towards Ava, where it is said that the successes of the peace party are on the wane, those of the recently deposed Sovereign, whose conduct brought about the war, in the ascendant. The Chinese merchants on the frontier have expressed them selves most anxious to increase their intercourse and improve their understanding with the English. Meanwhile the rebellion is extending throughout the Celestial Empire, and the brother of the sun and moon, like monarchs of meaner lineage, has found himself compelled to appeal to his people. There can be no doubt that a series of tremendous revolutions are in progress, or in prospect, amongst those vast and wonderful regions which have hitherto contrived to keep themselves hermetically sealed against all intercourse with the outer world ; and the bond once broken which has held them so wonderfully together, the sacred territory once invaded, and the blessings of external commerce once experienced in the interior of a country occu pied by the most ingenious and most industrial population in the world, the march of civilisation will be enabled to hold on. This, amongst many others, is one of the stupendous and inevitable contingencies which the British Parliament must keep in view in legislating for India. The Governor-General continues in the Eastern Pro vinces. It is now positively asserted that he referred the military arrangements to the antiquated Com mander-in-Chief, who spends his time and saves his 20,0001. a year in the Himalayas, and that Sir W. Gomm, looking out for one nearly as old and worn out as himself, fixed on General Godwin. The results were inevitable ; they were predicted with the most perfect fidelity at the time, the an ticipations of this time twelvemonth having been verified to the letter. Scarcely any incident of note has occurred within our dominions of Hindos tan within the past fortnight. There are still some disturbances en the Punjaub frontier, and Bhawul pore has scarcely yet settled down since the recent revolution. The first section of the Great Penin sular Railway has now been completed, and will, it is expected, be opened a week hence. It was at one time supposed that every effort would be made on the part of the authorities to give it eclat, form ing, as it did, one of the greatest epochs that has ever occurred in our history—that of the commence ment of the railway system in the east. On Oct. 31, 1851, the first sod was turned almost in secret, and at break of day, as if the party employed in this glorious work were some body of conspirators afraid of being detected in some act of infamy, and as the consummation of this approaches within a week of the completion of the most magnificent of I all victories—that over time, space, and the ele ments—the governor, the commander-in-chief, and all the principal men who can get away from the presidency, retire to their summer quarters, as if an event such as this was incapable of exciting either their interest or their regard. Perhaps, after all, the movement is merely meant as an honest indication of the contempt of those who sent them and who keep them here for the interests of India at all, and if it be so we must accept it with gratitude, and make a gift of it to the Manchester Chamber of Commerce as illustrating the value of the principle of non-interference with our political arrangements in India. Leave us the tree that has for the past twenty years yielded us such bitter fruits, and during the next twenty we shall be con demned to eat of the apples of Sodom and grapes of Gomorrah as heretofore. For nearly a month the papers throughout India have been mainly oc cupied by discussions in reference to the removal of Messrs. Grant and Legeyt from the bench of the Sudder Adawlut, the company's supreme court at the presidency. 1:1 R.

The express with London dates to the Bth ult. arrived on the night of the 17th inst. The markets for colonial produce were firm without much activity. The demand for money has increased sensibly, and the bank rate of discount was 3 per cent., some vague apprehensions of political events leading people to expect that money would become dearer. A large business bad been done in cotton, which had risen 1-16th to 1-18th per lb. The declarations for the quarterly sales of indigo amounted to 14,759 chests. We have received an account of the first day's sale, which, it is reported, went off with spirit at an advance en October rates of 3d to 6d on soft middling qualities, 2d to 4d on fine, and the same on low. Madras dry leaf had declined 2d. Our export market has been quiet since the departure of the last mail, but prices generally remain firm, at previous rates. The indigo market has been rather slack during the past fortnight, and prices have declined sr. to Br. per maund on previous rates ; the shipments amount to 18,142 chests up to the 17th inst. inclusive, of which 8,287 are for Great Britain, and 7,127 for France. A considerable business has been done in date sugar at a decline of 2 to 6 annas per maund, and 4 annas on vacuum pan sorts ; very little has been done in Benares. Exports from Great Britain from the Ist to the 16th inst. 75,300 maunds. The high rates of freight still check business in saltpetre, but the American de mand prevents prices from giving way. Exports , us _above, 13,645 maunds. Rice continues to be sent for ward in moderate quantities. Exports as above, 64,600 maunds. Raw silk has lately commanded a more active demand at full prices. Exports as above, 1,547 maunds. Silk pieces remain in good inquiry. Exports as above, 22,294 pieces corahs. The demand for shell lac is good at full previous value. Exports as above, 2,000 maunds. Lac dye is in less request, and may be quoted at Ir. Ba. to 2r. per maund lower, but holders are firm. Exports as above, 1,317 maunds. In linseed an active inquiry has prevailed for Great Bratain, as well as for the United States ; supplies are limited, and rates have advanced to 2r. 4a. to 2r. 6a. per maund. Ex ports as above, 67,900 maunds. Very little rapeseed is offering, at 2r. 4a. to 2r. 6a., the new crop not yet having made its appearance ; exports as above, 844 maunds. An increased business has been done in hides for Great Britain, and the market is well supplied at former prices. Exports, 171,000 pieces. Hardly anything has been done in the minor staples. Although we cannot quote any improvement in the prices of cotton piece goods, yet we have satisfaction in stating that a better feeling is apparent among the up country dealers, while a fair demand chiefly directed to grey goods exists for the consumption of the Lower Pro vinces. The supplies of late have been ample enough to keep their prices easy, while they have been sufficiently moderate to prevent a decline from taking place. Mule twist continues to be placed freely at the rates last quoted. Turkey red yarn is in fair demand, without any change in prices. Metals are improving. We quote copper at 41r. to 42r. 12a. sheathing ; 38r. to 42r. bolt ; 36r. 4a. to 56r. 12a. tile ; braziers', 38r. Ba. to 38r. 12a. Aus tralian iron is in good demand, at improving prices. Spelter is more animated, and a sale is reported at Co. Rs. 8 8. No sales of lead are reported, but the metal is quoted at 7r. pig, and 7r. sheet. The money market is kept well supplied, and a good demand exists for all descriptions of good joint-stock shares at advancing prices. Bank of Bengal shares keep up to 6,000. The business of this bank has greatly fallen off, and its large capital and deposits are lying idle in its coffers ; the note circulation is considered nearly suffi cient to meet the wants of its customers. Agra Bank shares are not easily procured at 25 per cent. premium. Bengal Coal Company shares have risen to 700 each. New Oriental Life Insurance shares have been sold at 340 each. Our quotations for Company's paper are-5 to 5-2 premium Transfer Fives ; 2-4 to 2-8 second ditto ; 3-8 to 4 third ditto ; 10-8 to 11 New Five. The Four per Cents. nearly touch par, and many parties prefer in vesting in the loan now open to buying old paper. Hardly any alteration has occurred in our rates of ex change. First class credits are quoted at 2-0 g to 2-01, document bills at 2-0 i to 2-oi. Bills on China, 225 to 226 per $lOO. Freights stand at 31. 17s. 6d. saltpetre, and 4/. sugar and rice to London.

The rebels have now got so far north as to th rea t en Sh ang h a i , and are stated to have a force of 50,000 men within a few marches of that port. Seu-Kwyng-Tsin, appointed by the Emperor to the chief military command of the combined attack which had been ordered on the rebels, has been worsted, and has fallen, according to some accounts, by his own hand, according to 'others by that of the enemy. Although, the affairs of the Tartar dynasty are con sidered to be in a most critical state, though the young Emperor is endeavouring to meet the emer gency with a degree of energy and a disregard to antiquated Chinese maxims, which proves him to be far in advance of his predecessors. He has ap pealed to his people in an edict which, printed on yellow paper, is now posted up in every place of public resort in the empire. In this remarkable document he openly acknowledges that during the three years he has reigned his utmost efforts have been unavailing " to restore to his people the bless ings of peace ; " that, though two years have elapsed " since he put his army in motion" against the rebels, he has been unable either to dislodge them from the provinces they originally seized or even to prevent their continually gaining ground, and he dwells much on his deep concern " for the indescrible suffering" of his people, " the inhabitants of the ravaged provinces ; he remarks, " that partial victories as well as defeats are matters of common occurrence in military life ; " but he attributes the frequency of their previous re verses to a slothful and trifling spirit on the part of the local officials, absence of discipline in the army, and a want of union, energy, and public spirit among all classes. He com mands that all in authority should forthwith use their utmost endeavours to remedy thee abuses, and give effect to his plans for the safety of the empire ; but he remarks that it is essential to the proper conduct of affairs that he should be correctly informed of all that occurs, without heightening or lessening the importance of facts.' Above all (says the edict), it is necessary in reporting to us to state the truth without the least glossing over of facts.' The Emperor de tails the military movements he has ordered for the annihilation of the rebels. Seu-Kwyng-Tsin was to lead the main body of the troops in person, detaching troops under his subordinate command ers to drive the enemy towards Woochung ; three other generals were to ascend the Yang-tse-Kiang with troops, and a fourth, with 10,000 picked men had been dispatched to defend the southern bor der of Honan, and to relieve Hookwang. All these were to be reinforced as rapidly as pos sible by troops sent forward from other pro vinces. All were to unite without regard to territorial distinctions, and advance straight to Hoopah, to make a combined and annihilating attack.' The militia were to be organised, each village or township forming its own band, the expense being defrayed by the gentry and head men, who were to have the management of the force, which was not to be employed in offensive operations, but simply for self-defence. The Emperor alludes to the heavy drain on his Treasury which the war has caused, but says he has that day directed the Treasury to send fresh assistance to the army, and that measures will be taken (by levying a tax on opium) for supplying ample means hereafter. Meanwhile, he promises unusual favours and re wards to those among his people who, from mo tives of patriotism, subscribe funds for the assist ance of the army,' but complains that the district officials have hitherto traitorously misapplied a large portion of such contributions, and thereby discouraged their countenance. The edict con cludes by enjoining all district officials to circu late it generally throughout the land, that all the people looking up may realise our desire, and hasten to arouse a warlike spirit for the destruction of the vile herd.' Of the military movement sketched out in the above edict, the portion assigned to Seu and the main body of the army has already turned out a failure, and it is reported that the other generals have been equally unsuccessful. The provinces already overrun by the rebels are stated to have been completely ravaged, and to be at present in a state of anarchy, and any further successes of the rebels would, it is thought, very seriously affect the commercial interests of all the Powers trading with China. Under such circumstances, it is urged that it would be for the interest of these Powers to exert themselves in maintaining the present Emperor on the throne. The Friend of China expresses these views as follows :—" A pe rusal of this extraordinary document (the Em peror's edict) is calculated to excite the sympathy of Western Powers ; and if, with united will, Eng land, France, and America tendered to his Majesty assistance enough to secure to him his throne—stipulating that in return he should bring his country into the great family of nations, no doubt now their wishes would be complied with, and the cause of civilization became the gainer. A powerful American squadron is on its way to the China Seas, and it is stated that a powerful Russian land force has been dispatched thither to watch its proceedings. Under these circumstances, and in the present position of affairs in China, it is complained that our naval force in these seas is inadequate for the protection of British interests. The following is from the Friend of China : " Meantime our naval force in this quarter is wofully small for the extent of service it may soon be called on to perform. An army of rebels, supposed to number some 50,000, within a few days' march of that important place, Shanghai,—where have British residents to fly to, and what have they got for their protection in the event of a sudden attack ? A paltry 12-gun brig (the (Lily) ; the Salamander, 6-gun steamer, at Amoy, and no more vessels in Hong Kong (barring Yankee) than are absolutely required." The Emperor has legalised the importation and sale of opium. The duty or 40 taels per chest which it is proposed to charge is stated to be as nearly as possible the figure at which chests can at present be smuggled into the port of Canton, the dollars, in the present state of things, going into the private purses of the officials, instead of into the Imperial Treasury. It is very possible that this legalization of the sale of opium may lead to the extensive cultivation of the plant in the south ern provinces of China, in which case the East India Company's revenue would suffer severely. Whatever may be the immediate issue of the pre. sent struggle in China, it is evident the old exclu sive and bigoted system of that nation has received a shock which it is not likely to recover. Our suc cesses in China destroyed the prestige of the em pire, at least in the provinces on the coast, and the rapidly increasing communication with California and Australia, and the tens of thousands of China men now annually returning from the former, with he savings and experiences of three or four years' tresidence in the most go-a-head' country in the world, cannot fail to have a great effect in a coun try where printing is so cheap and education so general as in China. Were the present dynasty subverted, and a state of anarchy to ensue, the preservation of quiet on her frontier would afford Russia plausible ground for interference, if not for anne xation. 40,000 Russian t roo p s could probably hold China Proper more easily than the same nu clasms - ber of English hold flindostan.

The London, 90, Captain C. Eden.—We reported , yesterday that this ship had run bac k to St. Helen s. This morning the wind got round to the southward, and she quickly ran up to Spithead. The Conflict, 8, screw, went out of the harbour this morning, under the direction of Captain Henderson, of the Blenheim, to test her powers at the measured mile, having ballast equal to all her weights on board. She will now ship the Boomerang propeller, which arrived in the dockyard yesterday. The only differance in the construction, as far as we could perceive, is that the fans are concave, or hollow, instead of being straight. The pitch appears to be the same as the ordinary propeller. We shall duly notice its supposed advantages. The Basilisk, 6 (paddle), Commander the Hon. F. Egerton, went out of harbour this morning, and brought up at Spithead. She shortly after received her powder and shells on board, and awaits orders. Report sends her on the North American station. The Vulcan, 6, iron screw troop-ship, Commander Donop.—The gallant commander read the articles of war to his ship's company between the hours of twelve and one, which is termed the silent hour in her Majesty's dockyard. The proceeding amazingly frightened a number of poor women who were alongside the ship with their husbands dinners. The Agamemnon, 90, screw, Captain Sir Thomas Maitland, has made application for 90 marines to make up a sufficient complement to go to sea with. There is, however, such a drain upon this most valuable corps that only 60 could be spared. Her master, Mr. Bowes, is untiring in his exertions to procure hands of the right sort, but they are scarce ! (very). The Nidaroff, Norwegian screw steam-sloop, Captain Hagerup, left Spithead this afternoon, on hor way to Christiana. The Elfin, tender to the Royal Yacht, Master Com mander Balliston, went out of harbour this morning, to prove her engines, &c., preparatory to her attendance on the Queen, who will pass this port, en route to the Isle of Wight, on Saturday next. The Imperieuse, 60 (screw), Captain R. Watson, re ceived a supply of coals on board to-day from the Orestes, moveable coal depot, towed out by the Echo, steam-tug. PLYMOUTH, APRIL 27 Mr. Woolridge, third-class clerk, who has been lent to Woolwich, has returned, and resumed his duty at this dockyard on Monday. The Wizard, tender, which sailed from here for Ire land on Saturday, put back on Monday, not being able to make headway against the gale. The Odin, steamer, Captain Scott, returned to the Sound this morning, the health of her crew being much improved. She has some defects in her engines. She is expected to be sent to the eastward, as the engineers at this port are particularly busy. The St. Jean d'Acre was taken into No. 5 dock on Monday, to facilitate the fitting of her machinery. , APRIL 22. Two cou r t s - mart i al have been si MALTA tting, one on the offi cers of the Fury.

The Hon. East India Company's steamer Semiramis also started yesterday for the Straits, having Dr. Bowring on board, who is going to visit the Dutch settlements, on three months' leave of absence. PIRATES.—On Friday, the 4th instant, her Ma ' jesty's steamer Hermes started to look after the four suspicious-looking junks, reported by the Nymph, on the same day. Having inquired her way up the coast for 100 to 120 miles, she passed a place where, from the lights seen, it was imagined the pirates had anchored for the night. The Hermes steamed on for about ten miles further, and lay to till next morning, and then steamed back. On nearing the place where it was supposed the pirates were, five boats were discovered which, on the approach of the steamer, separated, two making for land, and the remaining three running out to sea. The Hermes dispatched boats after the two running for land, while she went after the other three. Two of the three boats commenced firing at the Hermes about 9 a.m., and she was struck several times in the bulk and rigging. The steamer replied to the fire, and twice ran alongside of the boats and hailed them to surrender, but they re fused to do so, answering the summons each time by throwing stink pots on hoard. The steamer then kept up her fire, and about 11 o'clock the boats surrendered. The crews were taken out of them, and the three boats were put in charge of men from the steamer, which, after picking up her boats, r e t urne d t o liong,Kong. The prisoners ca wo pitmded, 23 re killed,uredamon w n e tto66 men, and 47 escaped severalvery inland. One of the junks was so injured that she sunk shortly after capture, and one other was burnt. COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. (Front the Overland Hong-Kong Regiattx- Since the date of our last market report there has been a somewhat more extended inquiry for imports. Although we cannot quote prices higher, still a better feeling prevails among dealers. Compared with the consumption of the past 12 months, the large supplies of shirtings and yarns which may shortly be looked for, as well as the large shipments which were being made at date of last adVices from England, lead us not to ex pect any early improvement in prices. We make the following remarks upon the market, in continuation of our last report. IMPORTS. Long Cloths—Sales of medium and common kinds of gray goods were made after departure of the last mail at an advance of from 3 to 5 cents., but lately grays have declined, and are now quoted 3 to 10 cents per piece lower than the rates given in our last. Heavy goods are in fair request. White shirtings show a slight improve ment. Very many of the purchases are said to have been made for shipments to Manilla. Turkey-red Goods and Prints—For these, in the ab sence of any transactions, we can only give nominal quotations. Cotton Yarn —From date of our last, sales were made without difficulty at the prices then given ; but within the past few days purchasers have shown a shyness in doing business which has been met by holders supplying what demand has existed at a decline of from 50c, to 1 dol. There is now little inquiry. Woollens—ln these goods a fair amount of business has been done. With the exception of camlets, which are higher in price, we have no alteration of moment to notice. Camlets—Of English there have been only 120 pieces sold. Iron—lmporters are holding for an advance in price, but the dealers in the article show little anxiety to make purchases at the rates now demanded. Lead—There has been a better demand for this article and an improvement is noticeable in price. Cotton—The demand for this staple during the past two weeks has been limited. Deliveries of former pur chases have, however, being readily taken. Holders are firm in refusing any decline on the rates quoted. Opium—A few days after the departure of last mail a pretty active demand sprung up for Bengal drug, and this, combined with some speculative purchases, caused prices to advance to $530 for new Patna and &flares. Rates have, however, gradually declined, and are now quoted new Patna $506 50c. ; old, $492 50e. new Benares, $5lO ; old, $9,750. Malwa is in no request, and better than $445 cannot be obtained. The stock of Turkey is small, and rates have advanced to $360, with prospect of further improvement. From Shanghai we have dates to the 26th ult. Patna had been sold at $5OO, but had subsequently fallen. Prices last quoted are—New Patna, $4BO ; old, $470. Malwa, $425 to $430. EXPORTS. Cassia—About 2,000 piculs have been taken for the Continent, which has cleared the market ; the price ob tained $lB 25c. to $lB 30c. Buds are scarce, and cannot be had under $32 per picul. Rhubarb—There is none at market. Sugar—This export has still further advanced in price, which has put a stop to any operations for the present. Silk—There have been no fresh arrivals of Nankin silk, and the few bales of Tsatlee, lately spoken of, are still on the market. The market is quite bare of Canton silk. Vermillion is quoted $46 to $46 50 per box ; and quicksilver, $9l per piettl. TEA REPORT. CANTON, MARCH 5. There is nothing new to notice in our tea report since our last overland. Transactions have been very limited and prices remain at last quotations. The export is about 4,000,000 lbs. less than that of last year, being 51,900,000 lbs. against 55,800,000 lbs., but as a large number of ships are about to clear from Shanghae, it is expected that our next advices will show an equal export with that of previous years. As however, these vessels will nearly clear the market, a considerable defi ciency is still expected in this year's export, in compari son with the one of the previous year. Exchange—On London, six months' sight, 4s. 90. On Bombay, three days' sight, 225r5. per $lOO. On Calcutta, three days' sight, 226 rs. per $lOO. Freights—To Great Britain 3/. 10s. to 4/. per ton. To out-ports ss. per ton additional. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE. Arrivals from Great Britain. —At Hong Kong—March 10, the India, from London.

GALE IN THE DOWNS. -FATAL SHIP WRECKS. RAMSGATE, APRIL 27.—During the last forty-eight hours a succession of gales from the north-west have been blowing in this vicinity of coast, occasioning a serious loss of life and property. On the much dreaded Goodwin Sands two fatal losses occurred. Other wrecks took place in the neighbourhood of the Downs, while several large homeward bounders, some Indiamen, had a narrow escape, having lost their anchors and cables, and left to the mercy, as it were , for the •time, of the elements. While the gale was at its height, about one o'clock yesterday morning, rockets were fired, as if from a vessel which had got on the Goodwin, and at daybreak the remains of a large vessel, apparently, were disco vered on the sands. Nothing could be learned of the crew ; and from the tempestuous character of the night, and the chances of escaping from a wreck on that for midable shoal, with the sea breaking over her, there is little dount as to the fate of the crew. Another fatal catastrophe took place on the Goodwin early this morn ing. Between 1 and 2 o'clock, the brig Harriet, the to relate, every soul belonging to her perished, vessel Hartlepool, was carried on to the sand, and, melancholy with the surf fast settling down and dilappearing, On the adjacent despiterem atihneedmbosutmsppiinrited Long Sand a tfhtihrde gale. s h A ipre we c d k ie h h a h p a p r en cin ec e l , during named the e continuance o Carl Johann, bound to the Thames from Dantzic and Gothenburgh, took the shoal in the course of yesterday the crew to get her off.

A serious loss happened near or on the Kentish Knock, the foundering of a London and Antwerp trader, called the James and Emma. It appears that in shaping a course for the entrance of the Thames, the violent state of the weather much trying her, she caught the Knock and sustained much injury. Hewever, the crew managed to get her off, only, however, to find that she had made an extensive leakage, ani wee fast filling. No time was l os t i n prepar i ng the boat for the escape of those on board, and they just had time to leave her, when she foundered. They were aftewards picked up and landed near Margate. The accounts from the eastern coast also describe the gale to have been severely felt in that district. Several wrecks occurred between Orfordness and Yarmouth Roads, but were happily free: from loss of life.
