Sir John Beckett, Bart., who expired at six A. 151 on Monday, at B r i g h ton, t h e Ri g h t H on . B ar onet having re paired to that watering plase with the view of regaining his health. The highly-respected deceased had been ill for the last month, but no serious apprehensions were entertained ti4l'at dose of the past week, when it be came apparitro hi s met li ce i attonda.uts that he was sinking rapidj,. Lady Anne Beckett has been in con stant attendance on Sir John, at Brighton, throughout his illness. • `The deceased Baronet was eldest son of Sir John Beckett, by the daughter of Dr. Wilson, Bishop of Bristol, and was in his 71st year, having been born in 1776. He married in January, 1817, Lady Anne Low ther, third daughter of the late and sister of the present Earl of Lonsdale. Sir John attained distinguished honours at Trinity College, Cambridge, having been fifth wrangler in 17.95. He entered the House of Commons, as member for Cockermouth in 1820, and sat for Haste mere in 1826, 1830, and 1831. In 1832 he unsuccessfully contested East Retford, and in 1334, on the vacancy caused by Mr. T. B. Macaulay's appointment in India, he had a severe contest for Leeds with Mr. Baines—Sir John polling 1,917 votes, and Mr. Baines 1,951. At the general election in the following year he was returned for that populous borough at the head of the poll. The deceased baronet was judge m arshal and advocate general during the Duke of Wellington's Administration from 1828 to 1830, and during the short period of office of Sir Robert Peel, in 1834, he again filled the same appointment. Sir John was a zealous and consistent Conservative, and when in the House of Commons voted against the Reform Bill, the Municipal Corporations Bill, and the Irish Tithe measure. He was appointed a Privy Councillor in July, 1817, and was a fellow of the Royal Society. In the ab-ence of male issue by his mar riage, the baronetcy devolves on his brother, Mr. Thos. Beckett, the eminent banker of Leeds. Mr. W. D. Beckett, brother of the deceased, and Lady W. Powlett returned to town on Saturday, from visiting the lamented deceased and Lady Anne at Brighton.

TWO MEN, TWO WOMEN, and a BABY, of the BOSJESMAN er BUSH TRIBE, from the interior of South Africa, a race that, from their wild habits, could never before be induced to visit a place of civilization. This opportunity of gratifying the man of science and the student in zoology has only been obtained by great personal exertion on the part of the gentlemen who have brought them to England, at an immense outlay of capital. On the passage to Europe a baby was born at sea, thus adding to the great interest that must be excited by their appearance. From the Liverpool Journal : —"Bosje,smans, or Bush People, from Southern Africa—lnteresting specimens of a most extraordinary race of human beings have been landed in our port; the , are the Bosjes mans, or Bush People from the interior of South Africa, of which so much has been written by the missionaries, and the few who have travelled to that far distant region. They are natives of the country border ng the Great Orange River, 1,200 or 1 400 milts from Cape Town. They exhibit almost as striking an absence of the intelle- tual or higher faculties as Is observable in the skull of that mockery of humanity, the Baboon, while the preponderance of the animal is al most equally as great. In every respect they are calculated to excite the greatest astonishment, and to confirm to the full those " Tales of Travellers" which we h ave certa i n l y b een inclined to look upon c a o a ul t d he se c a a r r e t e i l t y . have That c th re e d y lt a e r d e th g a c t na st i l a c c h ri a o r c a i e te e could with 8 11 .P tn ici e ' x n i . sten W e e e c , which , g ve ex hl a v e e t ju ll s •o t m re aC . a a n p ed Townou bt ; , p e r r o o o f of ti w ic ht 2 c 4 h th w b e e g c iv em e he th r e folowln t ceived :—" We understa n d th e brig Fanny, Captai n Wh eeler, which o re f e e e x n p t o ly tta le t ft ici, Tia,bilte.7tawya tafor a L l t e v a e a rp a o d o t l, w h c a f d em on al b er o r f d th a e n unusu alkind Bush man species; they are in charge of a M r.

AN Additional and Important Evidence of the Salutary Effects of BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS, from Mr. Samuel Dixon, of Kingscliffe, Northamptonshire. " Kingscliffe, Northamptonshira, March 14, 1846. " To Mr. Thomas Prout, 229, Strand, London. " Sir,—l feel it a duty which I owe to yourself and the public to aform yon of the great benefit which I have derived by taking Blair's Gout and Rheumatic Pills. During several years I was fre quently laid up by attacks of gout, being unable to attend to business for months at a time. I had often been advised to try Itlair's Pills, but it was not until a friend pressed them upon me that I was in- duced to take them. and from which I found speedy relief. This is several years ago, but I continue to take them whenever an attack comes on, and am thereby enabled quickly to resume my business. • I am, Sir, your obedient servant, "SAMUEL DIXON." The above testimonial exhibits the never-fading effects of this valuable medicine, which affords to the afflicted with gout, rheu matism, lumbago, sciatica, and all analogous complaints, speedy anti certain rebel. Among the many discoveries that characterise the present age, none have co itributed so much to the comfort and ease of the com munity, nor conferred such a boon upon suffering humanity, as the important discovery of BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS, the efficacy of which has been tested by the approval and recommen dation 01 many of the greatest men of our day. They are effective fur gout and rheumatism in all its various forms, including sciatica, lumbago, pains in the head and face, frequently treated as tooth ache, &c. They require neither confinement nor attention of any kind, and invariably prevent the diseaso attacking the stomach, brain, or other vital part.

TO MY LOOKING Pride of my toilet: think me not conceited In peeping rather often through your glass; For oh I my eye is regularly treated. On seeing what a change has come to pass. I am improved in feature and in figure. And really I appear a little bigger. At one time I'd have parted with a ransom For pleasing form and gentlemanly air; But now (without that cost) I'm getting handsome, Through nothing but the garments that I wear. See, bright reflector I what my form discloses, And duly estimate the Mart of MOSES. Well do I recollect my " first appearance" In faskionable dress from MOSES' Mart; Of all my shabby looks there was a clearance, And in an instant I became quite smart. No doubt you recollect my gazing at you In mute amazement, like a marble statue. I never look through thee, thoa needful glass, But with a wish for MOSES' vast success; May they who caused this change to come to pass Be still triumphant in their matchless dress.

A striking instance of the power of scientific art to remedy the defects of nature has lately occurred in the case of a Mr. F. Balls, a gentleman residing at Northam, in Norfolk, who, in the year 1842, on returning from if arlestone Market to Weyhred, where he then re sided, sustained so severe a fall from his horse, as to bring on an ill ness of several months' duration, during which period his hair con tinued to come off, till he became, to use his own terms, " as perfectly bald as if his head had been shaved ;" and the Rev. J. E. Daniel, then clergyman of the parish, offered him a wig as a substitute for his lost hair. Under these circumstances, he was Induced to try th• effect of ROWL AND!S MACASSAR OIL, and it is highly gratifying to add, with the most happy results. As soon as part of a bottle was used the growth recommenced, and he has new to ho st of a very thick and luxuriant head of hair, which presents this peculiarity, that, though prior to losing his hair it evinced no tendency to curl, the new growth is curly and strong. This fact speaks too strongly for itself to require observation.—Bas Messenger. Beware of " Spurious Imitations !—The genuine article has the words " ROWLAND'S MACASS XR OIL " on the wrapper.

Ab out half-past ten o'clock l as t n i g h t t h e i n h a bi tants of this quiet little borough were greatly alarmed at hearing the cry of fire, and on seeing the passing clouds tinged with rising time. As soon as possible the engines were at the scene of devastation, and a large assemblage of sturdy labourers there, ready to assist in putting a stop to the awfully spreading destroyer. Unhappily their efforts were of but little effect until the engines from Salisbury were brought at a rapid rate, accompanied by the fire brigade from that city, arriving there by about twelve o'clock at night. On approaching the spot where the destruction was spreading, we found a row of dwellings called Burton's Ball fearfully burning, two already destroyed, one occupied by a tailor named Young, the other by a plumber named Clark ; a third house being partly destroyed. By this time the flames were got under, and the danger materially lessened. By three o'clock, M te re- M3oa — Y- 14 fi ll 1 copies, publica cently burning pile had sunk into a heap ofsm o uldering ruins, and by four o'clock no further danger was to be ap. prehended. The property destroyed has not as yet been accurately ascertained.

[ADVERTISEMENT.] —A REMARRABLE CURE OF DROPSY, BY HOLLOWAY'S PILLS. —James Thomas, an old discharged soldier, who had been many years in India, where his constitution was much impaired, attended St. George's Hospital some time since, being in very bad health, besides being dropsical. After several weeks, the poor fellow began to despair, as 1-, -e got worse instead of better. One day he happened to meet his commanding officer who gave him some money, and recommended him to try Holloway's Pills, which advice he followed, and, in about two months, every symptom of dropsy had left him, being restored to perfect health.

OVERLAND MAIL (From the Times.) We have received, by express from Marseilles, our dispatches in anticipation of the Overland Mail from In dia, which left Bombay on the Ist of May. The news they bring, though not of great political im portance, is of interest to many, particularly the intelli gence of a fearful hurricane which ravaged the coast of India from Ceylon to Kurrachee. This appears to be one of those progressive atmos pherical commotions which are periocical in the East. Its beginning is described as moderate on the 7th of April at Ceylon; it gradually increased in violence along the Malabar coast until the 22d of April, when it was comparatively calm to the southward while raging at the mouth of the Indus. The extent of its ravages was nut known at the time of the departure of the mails. The barque Mermaid, 389 tons, Rodgers, which left Bombay for China on the 11th of April, with a cargo of cotton and opium, met the gale to the southward, and having suffered very much, was run ashore near Yin. gorla. A part of the cargo was saved, but the vessel will become a wreck. The Buckinghamshire, a large teak-built ship, which left London in January, fell in with the gale, was obliged to have her mast cut by the board, and was drifted into the bay at Vingorla, where she anchored. A requisi tion to the Indian naval authorities for a steamer to tow her to Bombay was presented by the owners and under writers; but there are no large steamers to spare in the harbour of Bombay, and their want is very much felt. There are several ships named, respecting the fate of which great apprehension is felt. Amongst them was the Hon. Company's steamer Sesostris, which left Aden on the 2d of April, bound for the Malabar coast, but has not since been heard of. The colonial steamer Seaforth, which left Bombay on the Bth, is said to have experienced rough weather in the Gulf of Manaar, but to hare reached Colombo. The Bombay Steam Navi gation Company's steamer Victoria, which left Bombay on the 12th, and reached Cannanore on the 17th, was obliged to take to the sea, as well as the steamer Hugh Lindsay, and was driven back to Mungalore, from which i place, although she had suffered considerably, she was able to pursue her voyage to the southward on the 20th. There were many rumours in circulation respecting different merchant ships, and amongst them of two Por tuguese vessels which were forced trom their anchorage at Goa. A number of passenger and other boats were missing at the departure of the mails. The politieal news is scanty. Lahore, Jamoo, and Sinde are quiet. The British troops in Lahore were making preparations for the rainy season. Ghoolab Singh was said to be squeezing his new subjects by every means in his power. In Sinde the people ap pear contented. Sir C. Napier was in excellent health and spirits. In October next the retirement of Lord Hardinge is, according to report, to take place, and the command of Lord Gough will expire after his term of five years. Lord llardinge was, it has been asserted, provided with a commission to succeed Lord Gough; but, as he is not inclined to remain in India, Sir Charles Napier will, it is now said, succeed in that highest of all the military dignities of the East. There was some confusion in Oude, the Prime Mi nister of which country, who, as well as his master, is far from being popular, was.seized by half a dozen Aff ghans, and kept prisoner under their daggers, until li berated by the British Resident, who, as well as the Wuzeer, promised pardon to them, and the latter paid them their arrears as soldiers. They were conveyed for Protection to the British residency, but have since been given up to the Wuzeer. The local news from Bombay mentions that Colonel Outram has been appointed Resident at Baroda—the best appointment in the gift of the Governor of Bom bay. Mr. Frure, the son-in• law of Sir George Arthur, has been named to succeed the gallant Colonel at Sattara. The Bishop of Madras has proceeded to Europe on account of his health, I.lhd the Bishop of Calcutta has been advised to quit India. The Bishop of Bombay is now the only one of the Establislit d Church re maining in that country. He was abuut to go to Calcutta. The Governor-General and the Commander-in-Chief were at Simlah, where they were to remain during the hot season. Our correspondent in a postscript mentions, that letters had been received from Cannanore, announcing the arrival there of the steamer Sesostris on the 21st of April. She had expended her coal, and was three days under sail during the gale. The steam-vessel Victoria, which had reached Cannanore a second time on the 21st, took in coal, and started for Ceylon. A brig was wrecked off Mount Dilly, and a large barque off Calicut. The disasters on all parts of the coast are said to have been very great. The following casualties by death in the armies of India are reported since the departure of the mail of the 15th of April: — Her Majesty's Troops.—Captain Lord J. Browne, 9th Lancers, on board the Precursor, on her voyage to Suez. Bombay.—Ensign J. M. Gow, 15th Regiment, at Ahmed nuggur, on the 10th of April. Madras—Lieutenant R. C. Buckle, artillery, en route to Tranquebar, on the 17th of April; Captain E. Green, Regiment, at sea on board the Lady Flora, on the 31st of May, 1846. Bengal—Lieutenant H. C.

Since the publication of our report, of the 15th ult., very little change has taken place in our import market. The business of the last fortnight is about equal iu amount to that of the preceding one, but we must now expect trans actions to decrease considerably until we approach the next season for sales, the operations for the present one, of the Arab and Persian exportett, is well as of the Inland and Coast Traders, having been brought nearly to a close. Cotton Manufactures—There has been a fair amount of business doue in "Grey Jacconets " in consequence of an in quiry from the bazaar dealers, whose stocks were exhausted, and from exporters, but without any improvement in prices. The rates previously ruling have however been fully main tained. A few sales have also been made in "bleached jac conets "at former prices. The transactions effected in other descriptions of goods partake of the same character described in our last report—that is to say, importers have continued to show a great desire to realise, while the dealers have evinced a perfect indifference to purchase except on their own terms, and a further concession in prices has conse. qnently been made to them. The bulk of the sales consist, as before, of 40-inch grey shirtings. Cotton Yarn—ln Grey the sales amount to about 295 bales of both Mule and water of the undermentioned num bers, and at the following prices, viz.,—Mule, No. 20, 6y. to 6% annas; No. 30, 7 1 ,4 to 7%; No. 40, 7% to 8; No. 50. 9%; No. 60, 10 per lb. Water, 7k, 8, and 10, for Nos. 20, 30, and 40. It will be observed that the sales of water show a slight decline in prices. The extreme rates obtained for Mule are some what above the present market value, excepting No. 20, which is well supported the other numbers are now dull of sale. In "dyed," orange has also fallen in price, and the only transactions reported are 10,000 lb. No. 20 to 30 at 8% annas per lb., and 12,8001 b. average 40 sold at 10 annas per lb. In " Turkey . red" no sales have transpired, but superior quality continues in very good request. We refer to the subjoined price current for the market prices of the day for all descriptions of cotton twist. About 2,0001 b: of sewing cotton in balls, have been sold at 15 annas per lb. Woollens—Continue neglected. Metals—lron appears to be neglected; the only sale re ported is 300 candies of English bar, disposed of on the day of thej departure of the last steamer, at 31% rupees per candy. Swedish bar remains nominally as last quoted, but we reduce the quotation for nail road, sheet, and hoop. Copper has been in some demand, and the sales reported of Braziers and Sheathing since our last report show improYed prices. They _consist of 1,060 cwt. o f Bra ziers at from 591/2 r upees to 60% rupees per cwt., according to sizes; 980 ditto Sheathing 58 1 / 2 rupees to 59 1 / 2 rupees per cwt. ditto.

We have heard of a sale o 50 hogsheads of Tennant's at 52 1 / 2 rupees per hogshead. Spirits—For gin of good quality there is a better in quiry; but brandy is without change, and the stock of this spirit in cask is still large. The sales of the fortnight consist of about 522 gallons of Pale Brandy at Rs. 3-4 per gallop. 682 „ Drown ditto, „ „3 2 „ Marine Stores contin ue w i t h out any improvement. EXTOL - yrs. Cotton Wool—A steady business has been doing, both for England and China, with very little change in prices ex cepting in Broach description, which in consequence of in ferior quality has declined about 3r. per candy upon our last quotations. The following are the rates of the day : _. Broach and Surat ... ... Rs. 93 per candy. Dhollera ••• „ 82 at 86 Oumrawutty... „ 84 „ 85 Barsee .• „ 80 „ 82 Compta (old) „ 64 And they will certainly be maintained, if not increased, by very favourable accounts just to hand from China, via Cal cutta, to the 14th if March. Sheep's Wool—Buyers are deterred from operating in this article by the still high rates of freight, and the inferior qua lity of what is at market, at present prices. What shipments are being made are consequently on owners' account. The present rates demanded are for— Khorassan Marwar 9O to 100 7, Mekran Cutch lOO to 11l ft Persian Opium—There is very little doing in this drUg, owing to the difficulty of procuring good quality, but for the best Malwa to be had 1,075 rupees to 1,100 rupees per chest is being paid. _ Viiiiage—We had several arrivals of vessels shortly after the departure of the last mail, which caused an immediate decline in the rates of freight from 6/. 10s. down to 6/. for Great Britain ; this latter is the present rate of London, but freight far that port is very scarce, and the vessels on the berth find great difficulty in getting cargo. The same rate has been retused for Liverpool, and 6/. ss. is asked. To China the rate has been s t ea d y at 18 rupees per candy, but great excitement has been produced by the very favourable ac counts just received from China for cotton, and engagements have been done in country ships at the greatly advanced rate of 22 rupees per candy. E The range of quot a ti ons for EXCHANG six . months' sight bills on London is 2s. to 2s. 0 1 /0., the f ormer b eing for China bills with local endorsement, and the latter for local bills. There is a good inquiry for paper, and the tendency of the exchange is downward. On Calcutta 97 1 / 2 rupees for 100 rupees, sixty. days' sight, and the same at Madras. On China 207 to 208 rupees for 100 dolls. Money Market-Money is rather scarce, though not suffi ciently as to embarrass commercial operations. FREIGHTS. To London, per ton, 6/. nominal.
