It is absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are principles of personal management which cannot be violated w Mout incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret succeed the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how these penalties may be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be remove;], and how the evil and its con equences may be avoided, and above all, hat there i, scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure. DOCTOR LA'MERT has for a long series of years been engaged in an extensive practice in the treatment of these delicate com plaints, and s the only legally qualified rhysie'an who, regardless of the taunts and envy of the hypocritical and mock-modest, has had the confidence, through the medium of the public press, to direct attention to these enormous evils, from which no grade of society is tree. In selecting thi. department of practice, he has been amply rev arded by the great success that has attended his efforts in the treatment of these cases, which are too generally confided to the care of unqualified and ignorant empirics, who, with their pirated publications, assumed foreign names and titles, and pretended virtues of their patent nostrums, have inflicted serious injury on those who have been induced to place faith in their pretensions.

The omnibus, the railway carriage, the lumbering street van, the, peripa tetic boardmen, the wall-chalker, the pavement painter, and the bill-sticker, are to surrender their monopoly. The journals that pay a double tax in paper and stamp have been declared entitled to relief from the third im post they have hitherto suffered under. The Eighteen penny Plunder on each advertisement is to fall, and henceforth we may hope to see the business of the Trader, the " want ' of the Servant, the school of the Teacher, the sale of the Auctioneer, and the thousand other needs of the active myriads who keep alive the progress of civilised society, announceable in the press without that monstrous check which has hitherto made publicity in print a thing to be enjoyed only by high payment. The maintenance of our social and com mercial position in the family of nations demands. the removal of all needless restrictions on honest. activity. We cannot run our race of trade with fair chance of success — a gainst America for instancii— if our rulers surround us with regulations crippling the energies needful for success. In New York the trader can for a shilling tell, in a few lines, in the best journals, what he has to sell, or wishes to buy, or desires to hire, or intends to let. In England —from the opera tion o f the advertisement and paper taxes—such a state ment in a journ a l costs at least five times the money. The advertisement duty—like other duties—does not simply put the full amount of its own weight upon the thing charged to bear it, but superadds additional costs, and hence to advertisers the eighteenpence which the Government takes on each announcement in a journal rises in costliness in proportion to the additional weight induced by bad debts, cost of capital, and the other con sequences of keeping up unnaturally the price of a thing which, if untaxed, would necessarily be cheap. The string of reasons for the abolition of the advertisement tax given in our columns yesterday seems to have had its due weight in the House of Commons, and the vote of last night having followed, it is needless for us now to go again over the details of the subject—but one or twe considerations still force themselves on our attention. The defeat—for defeat it was in its way—on Kilmainham Hospital, followed by this adverse division on the Adver tisement: nu witht tendpopotolarshsyomwytahte::alitiThonoyCaebziinoet thatethey cannot beard public opinion with impunity. They n"4?t ' in accordance with constitutional right an usage, shape their policy, fi scal and other, in something only on the popular belief in their readiness to do right, and the moment their views on general topics swerve from those entertained by " the majority out of doors, their become — es they must now feel—mere reeds in the wind. On these subjects of taxation especially, the na iikeagreerotae: tion are inclined to demand justice. There is no un willingness to pay—no desire to cripple by mean snip pings or ungenerous thrift the full payments required for amply rewarding public service. But the nation has grown wise enough to see that, by the equitable adjust ment of a few broad and common-sense imposts, the taxpayer could know what to expect and how to p rov id e for the demands upon him, whilst his energies, his in dustry, his capital, and his intelligence might all be re leased from a number of petty and unprofitable demands now emptying his pocket and chafing his temper. It is not the just load that society puts on a man which makes his journey through life wearisome, but those little thorns in the foot which link each step with a twinge of vexatious and unprofitable pain. Your petty taxes are your great nuisances, making much grumble whilst bring ing little grist to the mill. So last night the House of Commons seemed to think when they ended the debate on Mr. Milner Gibson's advertisement motion, by a majority of 31 in favour of removing the Tax on Pnblicity. After that division, the Chancellor of the Exchequer must surely deal, on Monday night, with this paltry and unprofitable, yet irritating, impost. He cannot well put at defiance the clearlrexpressed opinion of the house, on whose votes his tenure of power depends, nor can he so far stultify himself as to overlook the advantag es w hich the removal o f must accrue from one of the three loads under which the Fourth Estate now labours. The abolition of the Advertisement Tax will, in truth, induce its own fiscal reward. Its removal must give a stimulus, more or less, to all branches of business—to say nothing of the special increase that must take place in the consumption of paper and in the Post-office revenue from enlarged written corres pondence. The tide of commerce raised by the advent of Free Trade would by the absence of this check to publicity grow still higher, and out of the expanding wealth thus arising the Government must inevitably re ceive new revenue. The country cannot be prosperous without the Exchequer sharing in the general good ; and it should, therefore, be a sufficient consolation to the Coalition Cabinet, that if the division of last night must lead to the abolition of an obnoxious source of income, the very striking off the fetter will set fret, sources of general profit—all sure to tell satisfactorily on the public as well as the:•,private resources of the country. [PRICE SD. TAXES ON KNOWLEDGE-THE DEBATE. (From the Times.) The trumpeter who fell into the hands of the enemy pleaded hard for his life on the ground that he had taken no part in the fight, but he was nevertheless slain because he had sounded the call and given the sti mulus to war. That is the precise case of the press. When the tax-gatherer comes down on us, we reply, not to the actual functionary, but to the Legislature which sends him to our doors, that we are about the very last persons who ought to be taxed. Tax worldly vanities, tax creature comforts, tax the luxuries, tax pomp and pride, tax wealth, place, and power, but tax not your instructors and advisers ; tax not the light of the under standing ; tax not the fountains of knowledge ; tax not that heavenly medium in which we become more than animal, more than mortal, more than human. The an swer is too obvious. The press is taxed in order that it may feel its responsibilities. It is the press, in one form or another, that persuades men to peace or to war. It is the chief guardian of the public morals, and the chief holder of the national purse-string s . If we don't like paying taxes, then let us do our best to promote economy. Why should we alone be scot free ? The old woman who has not a word to say on the sub ject contributes her millions out of her dish of tea ; labourer tastes war and water in his beer. All th e the poor sot contributes millions from his gi n ; the toiling sons and daughters of poverty are up to their knees in taxation. By far the greater part of the re venue is contributed by those who have no vote, voice, or influence in the matter any more than sheep in their shearing. It is for others to act, but for them to suffer. But the press is a demigod, all knowing, all powerful, all good, and all wise—at least by the humble measure of human understanding. Why should it not be taxed' It can defend itself. If it likes not taxation, then let it set to work manfully and abate the nuisance altogether ; but not protect itself alone, and leave others in the lurch. That is the case against the press, if there is any case or reason in the matter except the law of might, which is perhaps the first principle of taxation. Such a case admits, of course, what none can deny, that the taxes affecting the press are pure, unmitigated evils. A tax en paper must restrict the use of one of the most con venient and beautiful of those inventions which mark the difference of ancient and modern times. A tax on each copy of a newspaper is upon one of the first necessities of civilisation. A tax on adver tisements, besides its gross inequalities, is a tax on that commercial communication which it is the great boast of our age to make as free as possible. Nobody can say a word for one of these taxes. We may not agree with every argument or every expression in popular use about them. "Taxes on Knowledge" is a fine sounding title, but not exactly correct. Two thirds of the duty on paper is on brown paper, wrapping paper of all sorts, and paper hangings, more useful and ornamental than instructive and edifying. Advertise ments only communicate the knowledge that such an estate is to be sold, such a house to be let, such an ar ticle to be procured good and cheap at such a dealer's, and that such a girl wants a place as housemaid or as cook. This is "knowledge" in the strict sense of the word, but only as the titles and announcements of all the shops in the Strand are knowledge. If this is all that is meant, "Taxes on Knowledge" are a minor grievance. But whatever is meant by the term, the thing is decidedly an evil. The unfairness of all these taxes is continually on the increase, as change of cir cumstances, and the sharpened ingenuity of man con spire to evade them. It is only a question of taste whether you will paper or paint your dining-room. If you paper it you are taxed. Your five coats of paint go free of duty. If you advertise on a huge van that stops the traffic of the greatest thoroughfare in the world, or on an empty house, or in a "'bus," or on the pavement, or on the walls of a railway station, or in any way that may most strike the senses and offend the taste, you are untaxed. Advertise decorously and inoffensively in a newspaper, and you must pay your eighteenpence for every act of advertis ing, though its virtue werrs out before night fall. With regard to stamps, we are ourselves an example of the greatest unfairness, in having to pay for a second stamp on our gratuitous supplements. But the operation of the Stamp Duties is worse than unfair ;it is positively ridiculous. When Mr. Savory, having entered into a bond not to publish anything seditious or blasphemous, circulates his illustrated cata logue of candlesticks, castors, and teapots, with a stamp, as public intelligence, and so procures for it a free pas sage through the post, it must be admitted that, at all events, the law requires revision, for this can never have been contemplated by the Legislature. These taxes, then, though they do not quite deserve the high-flying title of " taxes on knowledge," are not only evils but growing evils, and becoming more and more absurd and ridiculous. The objection against them grows stronger every day, and it is plain that the Chancellor of the Ex chequer cannot much longer maintain them on the single ground that while other things are taxed, paper, news papers, and advertisements must be taxed too. Mr. Milner Gibson met last night with a success in this hitherto fruitless agitation, and actually carried against Government his reso l u ti on f or t h e repeal of the duty on advertisements. For this he has to thank, not so much the increasing merits of his cause as the oppor tunity of a rather unusual alliance. Mr. Disraeli, though he had no room for this measure in his own bud get, took care to give its promoters a little encouragement; so now we witness the singular spectacle of the Protection ists combining with the Manchester School againsta mo derate Administration. Against such tactics we have no thing to say, except what prudence will probably have sug gested already to some members of the new alliance. In politics one coalition is held to justify another, but it is difficult to see what future assistance Messrs. Bright and Disraeli will be able to interchange, and what direct benefit either will receive from the triumph of the other. Meanwhile Government has received another blow. There is no:disguising the moral effect of such blows if frequently repeated, and we certainly think it is high time for Ministers to be mustering their adherents, closing their ranks, and, above all, considering betimes what they are prepared to concede and what to refuse. If they choose their own policy well they need fear no combination against them, as tactics of a purely factious character soon wear themselves out by the mere force of disrepute and disgust. They will, we presume, offer no further resistance to the repeal of the tax condemned by the resolution of last night. For obvious reasons it is a question on which we should never assume the initiative. It is not for us in our position to press for the removal of our own burndens, as our duty is rather to the public than to ourselves. But that the tax is heavy, oppressive to certain classes, liable to be evaded by other methods of advertising, and not very consistent with the great principle of free and cheap communication, we have ever maintained • and must the re f ore congratulate the public on its probable removal. (From, the Morning Advertiser.) It will be seen, from our Parliamentary report, that the debate on Mr. Milner Gibson's motion for the repeal of the taxes on knowledge, has this year assumed a much greater importance than it ever did on any pre vious occasion. The fact of Mr. Disraeli and Sir John Pakington— as the leaders of the Conservative party, now divided into two sections—having severally spoken in favour of the resolutions of the member for Man chester, converted the question into one involving stability of the Ministry. The result was one of most Crowded houses Of the session. The debate ex tended to a much later hour than on any former occ sion. To the speeches delivered on either side, we not space to advert to-day. On a division, the first re solution, affirming the expediency of abolishing the duty on advertisements—was carried by a majority of 31, the numbers being—for the resolution, 200 ; against it, 169. The other two resolutions were negatived. The defeat of Ministers on the first resolution will give them a severe shake. Mr. Gladstone and his col leagues will feel it all the more, because of the strenuous opposition which he and the friends of Governmen offered to it, as well as to the other resolutions. Two defeats in one week are awkward affairs for the Coali tion Cabinet. And we believe we do not speak without book when we say, that should Mr. Gladstone pc► sist in his determination to make no distinction between pre carious and fixed incomes, when he brings forward his budget on Monday. Ministers will be defeated again on that evening. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. DEATH OF REAR-ADMIRAL SIR THOMAS FELLO WES, C. B. Accounts have just reached us of the death of Rear- Admiral Sir Thomas Fellowes, C. 8., aged 75. The gal lant officer died in Dorset, where he had been detained by severe illness, which prevented his return to his resi dence, Tamerton Folliott, near Plymouth. Sir Thomas was one of the most distinguished officers in the navy. He served about 20 years afloat, and three years as superintendent of the Royal Naval Hospital and Royal - William Victualling-yard, Stonehouse, He was knighted for his share at Navarino, where, in com mand of the Dartmouth, 42. gun-frigate, he had charge of a squadron of five ships, and saved the French admiral's ship from destruction. He will also be remembered as captain of the Pembroke, 72, and Van guard, 80. He has a son in the service, who is first lieutenant of the Spartan, 26, now in the East Indies. Had he been a " Parker," an "Elliot," or a " Grey," his father's war services would have been made the ex cuse for conferring upon him a captain's commission years since ; and he has another son, a commander, who was promoted in 1850, after 20 years' service at sea. Sir Thomas Fellowes was on the reserved half-pay list, in receipt of a service pension ; but his death will make a vacancy in the active list by the acceptance of the pen sion by an eligible officer ' • consequently, Capt. William James Hope Johnston (1823) will be promoted to his ac tive flag rank, relinquishing thereby his appointment of the superintendentship of Haslar Hospital and a good service pension. Capt. James Ryder Burton, K.H., will then be the senior on the active list, but not having served his time for promotion to the retired list, the pro motion to be rear-admiral of the blue on the next va cancy will fall to Captain William Fanshawe Martin (1824). (From the Morning Herald.) In the House of Commons last night, Mr. Milner Gibson brought forward, according to notice, three re solutions relating to the taxes on knowledge : " 1. That the advertisement duty should be repealed. "2. That the penny stamp on newspapers is inexpe dient, and the attention of Parliament ought to be directed to the subject. " That the Excise duty on paper impedes the efforts now making to promote education among the great body of the people." The first resolution was carried by a majority of 200 against 169, leaving the Government in a minority of thirty-one I—the second defeat Ministers have sustained during the present week. The second resolution was lost by a majority of 182 ; and the third resolution by a majority of 195. The result of these divisions we think will be satisfac tory to the public. The amount of the advertisement duty is small—we believe about 180,0001.—and the loss to the revenue, therefore, of little moment, when corn pared with the boon afforded to traders by its reduc tion, for in these days of puffs and quackory, who does not desire to advertise, if the price of the advertisement did not too often prohibit the small capitalist from doing so. Speaking for ourselves, we regret that the Chancellor of the Exchequer did not offer a com promise, by reducing the duty to 6d., which, we confi dently believe, would have effected a great reduction in the price of short advertisements, without producing any loss to the revenue, for, unquestionably, the number of such advertisements would rapidly increase were the price materially reduced. For the reduction of the penny stamp no good or valid reasons can be given. Stamped newspapers are sent gratis by the post, and the vast majority of newspapers pass through the post-office more than once. The stamp is, then, no more than a postage stamp, and the reduc tion would be no boon to the public generally, for every one not resident in London who subscribes to a newspa per would have to pay to the post-office what is now paid to the stamp-office. But one great evil would infallibly arise from the reduction of the penny stamp—all sorts of cheap newspapers would spring up in every direction ; and the newspaper press, which is now generally con ducted by respectable persons, and constitutes one of the principal bulwarks of our liberties, would most probably be converted into a licentious and tyrannical engine, from which we should most anxiously desire to be quickly e u l i c e t v i o e n d' The edof the duty on paper wou ld , undoubtedly, r materially contribute to theproductionoEf lite- quer could al- - and is therefore desirable, if the st a t e of the revenue works, revenue our humble op i were such that the Chancell or of olt afford to lose so large a su m ; b ut, i n Mon, other taxes whi c h press more heavily, be named, if there we re any chance of their mi repeal and therefore we rejoice that the resolution was lost by large majority.

The ribs and keel of the hulk Menai, late target for the Excellent, was towed down to-day by the Echo steam-tug, and laid on the gridiron to complete the breaking-up. The Gorgon, 6, paddle, lit fires and got up steam this morning, in the basin. She is being rigged as a brig, and nearly complete. The Pitt, old 72, large coal-depot for Spithead, has nearly completed painting her hull, and will come out of dock in a few days. are eTaht w The s hipwright t ig h h e t s h c i e ve . s — se A l, gat a r n e da n r u e m o b n e i r er ohsh o i Polurkmio)enr, w - - ready for sea with all dispatch.

EXCISE -OFFICE, in Old Broad-street, FOR SALE.—To be .;OLD, by TENDER, by order of the Com miss oners of Inland Revenue, in several Lots, or, if an adequate price be offered, in One Lot, all those extensive, valuable, and highly important FREEHOLD PREMISES in Old Broad.street, in the city of London, known for many years as the EXCISE-OFFICE, and, recently, as the Inland Revenue-office; comprising the elegant and substantial stone bAding Ironting Old Broad-street, and the spacious offices and Inclosed yard contiguous, in the rear, with a carriage-way entrance from Bishopsgate-strcet, all of which have been for the last eighty years vested in the Crown, and used for the p..rposes of the Excise Revenue. The vast importance of this property, in regard as well to its loca -Ity as its extent, is of the highest character. The immediate neigh bourhood of the Royal Exchange, the Bank of England, the Stock Exchange, the Auction Mart, and tha numerous other public and pri vate establishments for budness, renders its value peculiar; and no opportunit of acquiring a s'te in the city of London, in any degree approximating that now offered, will probably seain present itself.

We have received, by our express in anticipation of the Overland Mail, our correspondence and files of news papers from India and China. The dates are—Calcutta, March 5 ; Bombay, March 14 ; Madras, March 10 ; and China, Feb. 25. CALCUTTA, MARCH 5 The latest news from Burmah is of the 24th of Feb., and is not important. General Steele had occupied Shwai-geen without opposition, and expected to take Toongoo on the same easy terms. The revolutionary " peace party" was still in the ascendant at Ava, and it is said the usurping half-brother had obtained the posi tion in which he was qualified to treat with us. There is little doubt that negotiations have been opened, and, to judge from appearances, a cessation of hostilities is likely to be the speedy result. Even Meea-Toon, the victorious robber, has condescended to ask for terms ; but, according to report, Commodore Lambert is anxious to thrash him before treating. It may be mentioned as evidence of the really pacific disposition of the party in power at Ava, that several of the British prisoners there have been released, and others relieved from the rigorous treatment to which they were previously subjected. The north-eastern and north-western frontiers are quiet. The Punjaub had passed under the administra tion of Mr. John Lawrence, as chief commissioner. The best evidence, or which ought to be the best evidence, of peace in this quarter of our empire, is furnished by the Governor-General, in cancelling the order by which coolies were prohibited from entering the valley of Cashmere. We are, however, likely to have a little war, of no long continuance, on the banks of the Sutlej. The elder . brother of the new ruler of Bahw u lp ore , whom fraternal jealousy had doomed to a barbarous imprisonment, has by the aid of his partisans made-kite escape, and r imoked by the sympathy of the people, has made war on his cruel brother. According to the latest accounts the whole country has risen in his favour, and if not very promptly relieved by our Government, the Nawab is likely to lose both his throne and his life. He has, it is said, applied to the British authorities in the neighbour hood for the help which, under the treaty of 1838, we are, I fear, bound to give him. It will be very annoy ing if we have to take arms against an every way ill used man, supported by the entire people, against a younger and illegitimate brother, whom the ill-judging partiality of the father awarded the succession. The impression is strong and general that Oude will shortly be annexed, and that Hyderabad can be saved from the same fate only by a very prompt and very thorough change in the present system of misgovern ment. The Governor-General returned to Calcutta on the 28th ult., after an absence of only eleven days. He went no further than Kouk Pbyoo, in Arracan. Nothing has transpired as to the object or effect of his voyage. Sir Lawrence Peel has proceeded to China in the steamer Pekin, for the benefit of his much-impaired health. A draft act has been published for regulating the office of Administrator-General of Intestate Estates. It raises the commission to 5 per cent. in Bengal, and gives two fifths of it to Government. Calcutta has not followed the example of the minor presidencies in holding a public meeting in promotion of the Wellington testimonial. Nor has it as yet responded very liberally to the Governor-General's invitation to subscribe for this great object ; his lordship and the members of council have hitherto stood alone on the list. We learn, however, that subscriptions are at length beginning to come in a little more freely. The weather is growing warm, but it is not yet more I than tolerable. There has been but little sickness yet among our European community ; but an influenza has prevailed among the horses, and, as we learn on good authority, the pianos ! Of these latter eight or ten were sent in one day to one shop, to be cured of a curious impediment in their speech. Trade is good ; money very abundant. The Bank of Bengal has reduced its rate of discount from 6 per cent. to 5. Exchange is quoted at 2s. id. to 2s. id. Freights have gone up, but shipping is arriving rapidly, and will keep them down. The Oriental arrived on the 2d, with the mails of the 24th January. The Peninsular and Oriental screw steamer Madras arrived yesterday. The long-expected Mauritius has not made her appearance yet. (Front the Overland Bombay Timea, March 14.) SUMMARY.—The intelligence sent home from Burmah by the last mail came down to the 14th of February. Tidings have since then reached us to the 23d, but they afford us nothing more than an extension or confirma tion of what had been formerly received. The robber chief Meea-Toon, who occasioned so much mischief, has, it said, offered to surrender himself, a price of 1,000 rupees being set upon his head ; and it has been re marked that it would be cheap at 'the money, if it could only be transferred to the shoulders of the British general. There have been some disturbances in lAA wulpore, which have compelled us to dispatch a force from Sukkur for their suppression. The Nawab has been deposed by his people, or has abdicated, on finding himself unable to maintain his ground, in favour of his brother, Hajee Mahorned, the rightful heir, late a pri soner in Islarnghur, who in vain petitioned the British Government for his release and permission to reside as a subject in the country which he now rules. No act of disloyalty has been committed by him against us, and we will in all likelihood ratify the choice of the people, interfering merely to the extent of preventing civil war. The Hajee is not only the oldest but is the only legiti mate son of our valued ally, the late Nawab—the chief just abdicated is a bastard, who was set up solely by Zenana influence. The hill people on our north-west frontier are quiet for the present, and general tranquillity prevails throughout India. The young Maharajah of Gwa lior was installed into office with great pomp and cere mony on the 19th of February. The Nizam of Hyderabad seems anxious to hasten his fate. Overwhelmed with debt, and unable to meet the claims of his chief creditor, the British Government, he is determined on increasing his army, which already, exclusive of the contingent, exceeds 60,000 men. The Governor-General has, it is said, forwarded his ultimatum to the resident, which it is supposed will include the dismissal of a moiety of the mercenary force thus being augmented. Much surprise has been experienced that no whisper should have as yet reached us as to the successors to the present Governors of Bombay and Madras. Sir Henry Pottinger was sworn in on the 7th of April, and Lord Falkland on the Ist of May, 1848, and at these dates respectively. will the customary term of their services expire. There is no occasion for their retiring, however, till their successors arrive, and it is not likely that either will quit his post until relieved. The governor and commander-in -chief of Bombay proceed to Mahableshwar in the course of the week. Two small detachments, amounting to about a hundred men each, drawn from the various European corps in the Presidency, have been ordered to assemble on the hills and at Poona, the one to be drilled under the immediate inspection of his excellency, the other to be taught by a military instructor, who has just arrived, with a view of introducing into their respective regiments the instructions they have received, The Governor- General has returned from British Burmah to Calcutta. The commander-in-chief of India has not yet returned to Simla, from his inspections. The most notable incid en t that has occurred during the past fortnight is the removal of Messrs. Le Geyt and Grant, two puisne judges in the Com pany's Supreme Court the Sudder Adawlut, from the bench, under circumstances of extreme hardship and injustice. These things have fallen out very op portunely for the cause of reform, and in whichever way they are viewed wj,ll go far to refute much of what has been set forth before the Parliamentary committees. An open or fair inquiry is not looked for here on the past of Government by any one, and a petition, which will go home next mail, is now being subscribed, praying for a Parliamentary committee to collect evidence on these and other matters, to be laid before Parliament before the passing of the India Bill, and entreating that this may be postponed till December, or passed only for a single year. Regiments from Prome. The Fire Queen starts to-mor row at daylight—fog permitting—for we had very heavy ones for the last week ; in fact, I do not think I ever saw such dense ones. The weather is much more mode rate now, there not being so much in the temperature in the course of the day. A fortnight ago there used to be a difference of 23 deg. between 4 in the morning and 2 in the afternoon ; now there is not more than 10. Small-pox is still raging and making great ravages amongst the Burmese, whose habits and modes of living are very. filthy. Her Majesty's steamer Sphinx left this on Sa turday for Trincomalee en route for England. Poor Captain Loch's death - was a terrible one of agony and suffering. He sacrificed his life to his pride, for he might have been alive now had he added a little discre tion to his courage, but no, it was 'Winchester to the charge—forward men—follow me.' He was a gallant man and a perfect model in his gentlemanly behaviour. Young Kennedy was shot down at his side, riddled. A thorn caught Loch's watch and pulled it from his waistcoat pocket, at the same moment a ball struck him and carried the watch into his body. Many were the hair-breadth escapes that happened that day ; a corporal of marines with eight balls in his body is now hearty ; the doctors say they never saw such recoveries as the people have had."—Calcutta Englishmen, March 3.

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. THE CALCUIVA MARKETS. :From the Overland Bengal Hurkuru Price Current, Mar. 5.) GENERAL REMARKS. The chief characteristics of our export market here, are considerable briskness and well-supported prices. There have been several further public sales of indigo. There has not been much done in sugar, but scanty sup plies in the bazaar keeps prices rather high. In Khaur and inferior sorts generally there does not seem much disposition to do business. Raw silks, as will be seen by the exports of late, continues to attract great atten tion. Silk piece goods have of late only been in slight inquiry. A good demand prevails for tac dye and shell lac, and full prices are paid for both sorts in suitable qualities. In saltpetre a tolerable amount of business has been in progress. Shipments of rice to Great Bri tain in February reach 1,40,190 mds. In hides a large business has again been done for Great Britain; while for the Continent and North America less business than usual appears to have been in progreis. In Safflower there is next to nothing doing as yet. Jute continues in good demand for Great Britain, to which quarter the exports in February amounted to 61,920 mds. Ship ments of castor oil are very moderate, and there is hardly anything doing in cutch. Transactions in raw cotton are small, both to Great Britain and China. In the money market matters remain much as they were before; interest and discount, however, are something lower. Government securities continue much of former value. The share market remains steady. Profits at the Bank of Bengal for January equal to Co.'s rs. 4-4-1 i per cent. per annum on paid-up capital. In the import market there has been rather more acti vity than there was, but no improvement in prices is observable. Imports in February were light, which is not without its effect on dealers. They have more spirit to buy when supplies are rather under than over consump tion, even although they know it to be only a temporary circumstance. Sales of 40-inch grey shirtings are re ported to a large extent. There has also been a good deal done in grey jacconets, with only a moderate busi ness in bleached goods. About 16,000 pieces of grey madapollams are reported sold, and one or two small parcels of white have been placed. Figured shirtings and white twills have only sold to a small extent. Nu merous small sales of lappets are reported, but chiefly in small lots, which do not, when all added together, make a very large amount. Reported sales of mulls are not large, while of books only a few hundred pieces appear to have been sold. Turkey red goods are in some little inquiry at former prices. Prints and chintzes of suit able styles are in request in small quantities. The activity in the mule twist market mentioned in our last has continued, and sales to a considerable extent are reported, 40's at all sorts of prices from 3 annas 9 pie to 4 annas 4 pie per morah ' • 50's at 3 64 to 3 9, and 50's at 34t0 3 6 per morah. A parcel of high counts, 100's to 150's, is reported sold at 5 annas 4 pie, and 160's to 200's at 6 annas 4 pie per inorah. Turkey red has sold in British dye at Company's rs. 1 0 0 to 1 3 0, and best Germans dye at Company's rs. 1 7 6 per lb. Both orange and green are without report of transaction. In Metals transactions have chiefly been confined to iron. Very little has been done in copper, and no transactions in spelter are reported. Sheet lead is re ported sold at Sicca rs. 6 10 0 per md. EXCHANGE.—Present quotations are as follows :-- First-class credits, 2s. Oid. to 2s. Oid. ; ditto documents, 2s. Oid. to 2s. od. per rupee. FREIGHTS.—Quoted rates are as follows :—Sugar 41. to 41. 55., saltpetre 31. 15s. Od. to 31. 17s. 6d., rice 41. to 41. 55., jute and cotton 3/. 2s. 6d., hides 31. 10s. to 31. 155., oilseeds 41. 2s. 6d. to 41. 55., shell lac 31 ., lac dye 31. 15s. To Mauritius Co.'s Rs. 2to 2 2 per bag, payable there at 50 cents. INDIGO.—Very little is said to have been doing lately, and it is impossible to say what effect the news just ar rived may have on the market. THE FRENCH EMPIRE. We must go from home to learn the news. A Paris journal states, on the authority of a letter from London, that Gaillard, who is said to have been the principal actor in the affair of the infernal machine at Marseilles, has arrived in London from Malta, and been received with great enthusiasm by the democratic socialist refugees. The Emperor and Empress went out on Thursday for an airing as far as St. Cloud. The transactions at the Bourse yesterday in the public securities were on a limited scale, with a downward ten dency in prices, although, at the conclusion of business, there was a slight improvement. SPAIN. The Madrid journals, of the 9th, are chiefly taken up with the sudden suspension of the Cortes and the Senate on the preceding day; but they add nothing of interest to the details given yesterday from a Madrid letter. The Gazette publishes the royal decree by which the Parlia mentary session was closed It merely says:—" Exercis ing the prerogative conferred on me by article 26 of the Constitution, and in conformity with the advice of the Council of Ministers, I decree that the sittings of the Cortes shall be suspended for the present session." A letter of the 9th says :—" Amidst all the contradictory rumours in circulation, it is difficult to know the exact truth, but the following details are not far from correct : After the suspension of the Cortes announced in the two Chambers, the Ministers held a Council under the Presidency of Queen Isabella 11. The Ministers thought right to represent to her Majesty that the situation was a critical ore, and that consequently they were of opinion that she ought to choose other men fur her counsellors. They then offered their resignation. The Queen replied that she had full confidence in them ; and that she was ready to sign any measures they might think opportune. But the Ministers begged of her Majesty to take 24 hours to reflect on what should be definitively done. However the present crisis may end, it is certain that the Minister of Grace and Justice (M. Vahey), will resign." By express we have accounts of the 10th—which, however, are two days in arrear of those received direct by telegraph. The Gazette of that date contained a royal decree accepting the resignation of the Minister of Justice ; but the other Ministers had not received a notification of her Majesty's definitive pleasure. All the Senators holding public functions who voted against the Cabinet on the Narvaez question had been dismissed. GERMANY. A letter from Vienna, 10th, states that the King of Prussia is not expected to visit that city until the end of May, at the same time as the Emperor of Russia. Mustapha Effendi, the aide-de-camp of the Sultan, had had an audience of the Emperor, to deliver the autograph letter of which he was the bearer. A telegraphic dispatch, dated Vienna this morning, states that Count Revel, the Sardinian Ambassador, has left for Turin on leave of absence. The Marquis Can tame will manage the business of the Legation during his absence. The Archduke Ferdinand Maximilian, brother to the Emperor of Austria, arrived at Venice on the 7th from Trieste. The Breslau Gazette, of the 9th, states that a domi ciliary visit at the house of the librarian of an associa tion of students which has existed there since 1836, the place of meeting of the association has been closed on the ground that the members have revolutionary ten dencies. A letter from Rostock, of the Bth, states that domi ciliary visits of the police were still going on. It was reported that at one place the police had seized a box containing materials for an infernal machine. The Diet of Saxe-Weimar was opened on the 10th by the Ministry, according to the orders of the Grand. Duke. The opening address mentions the extension given to the Zollverein by the Austro-Prussian treaty of commerce. On the 9th, the Diet of Copenhagen adopted the third reading of the royal message, relative to the succession to vho throne, by a majority of 111 to 1, LATEST NEWS FROM BURMAH. ---- -- - The news by the Fire Queen is of neither so stirring nor diastrous a nature as that which preceded it. Gene ral Steele had quietly taken possession of Shwai-geen with out the slightest resistance, and was to have proceeded further on with his force to a place called Toongoo. In other directions there was the same absence of opposi tion even from the strong bands of Burmese robbers. The Dacoit chief who was the cause of so much mischief at Do nabew, has also evinced a d is p osition to su ccumb, having it is said sent in overtures of reconciliation, for the since rity of which, however, be is likely to obtain small credit, since we see it stated there was treachery in his own camp, numbers of his followers having deserted and joined the rival banner of one of the subordinate leaders of his gang. But perhaps the most important item of intelli gence yet received from Rangoon is what we find men tioned in the communi cation of one of our correspon dents, that the new King , or usurper at Rangoon, had re-establish men t o f peace since he is re p resen t e d as succeeded in assuming t hat su p reme authorit y at Ava to allow of our recognising it as such.

No news has as yet transpired. A boat from the Phlegethon, conveying some commissariat craft, came through the Paulang Creek and was fired at several times. News came from Prome yester day, that General Steele was expected to occupy Ton goo on the 21st. The commissioners from Ava are en route to Meaday to ratify peace. Several prisoners have been released for Ava and were at Prome.
