I dreamt to the day that I went to Guildhall, Just five minutes' walk from the Church of St. Paul, The election was on, and I went with the rest, To give in my vote for the men I liked best. All alive was the scene—Gog and Magog themselves Seeni'd ready to stir from their lodgments or shelves-- Two candidates stood in a countless majority, And, of course, left the rest In a hopeless minority ; Yee., the voting preceeded one thousand to one In favour of Messrs. E. MOSES and SON. And, at length, when the clocks gave the final loud toll, These men were p roc l a i med at the top of the ar poll , Then the glad d emonstration resounded nnV hurrah ; from e ac h steeple, Messrs.

Since we issued our last summary, on the 29th of May, the customary dulness at this season of the year has reigned in our import market, and transactions have been extremely limited, particularly since the burst of the monsoon on the 2d instant. We have consequently very little to report. Upon the supply of rain through out the monsoon will mainly depend the demand for British manufactures on the return of the active season. The fall in Bombay and the vicinity, to the present time, has been very satisfactory, but we have no certain reports from the agricultural districts. Cotton Piece Goods—We append the sales as reported to us under this head, the greater part of which were effected before the close of last month; since when the local dealers have continued to move about in the inter vale of sunshine, but their offers have been in most in stances too low to lead to operations.

Saffron—There has not been any inquiry for this article, and the present quotation of 12r. to 16r. per lb. is quite nominal. Beer—The market has been well supplied, and the price for " Bass" and " Allsopp" has been reduced to 65r. per hhd,, at which about 1,000 hhds. have been sold say 600 hhds. of Allsopp and 400 hhds. of Bass. Ten nant's is quoted at 45r. per hhd., and of other brands there is none in the market. Spirits—Without any change in prices, which must be considered nominal, as there have been no sales, nor is there, we believe, any inquiry. Marine Stores—The only alteration that we have to notice under this head is an advance in the price of coal tar, 80 barrels of which have been lately disposed of at Br. per barrel; there has been a good demand for it, and very little remains in first hand. Sundries—Red lead has experienced a decline in value, 200 cwt. having been sold at 121 r. per cwt., being a fall of Ir. per cwt. White lead is without change. Orsidue—A parcel of 4,0001b5. has been sold at 21r. per lb. Bottles are lower in value. Present quotations are— Annas. Annas. • ... 14 to 16 per dozen • ... 8 to 9 EXPORTS. Cotton Wool—Between the 20th and 28th of May the purchases consisted of about 1,600 bales of Broach at 90r. per candy ; 600 candies of Oomrawutty at 85r.; 2,400 bales of Dhollera, 80ir. to 82r. ; 400 candies Compta at 76r. per candy ; but holders have been com pelled to warehouse for the rains, and pay four months' rent, they advanced their demands aurae rupees per candy, the present quotations being— Quarts Pints B o r o o rn ac ra %a i n t d ty Sur . a . t .

Very few and trifling transactions have, however, had effect at these rates, and, as the stocks on the spot arc little if at all short of 100,000 bales, we look for prices receding. Opium—Very little has been done in this drug, and the price is similar to our last quotation, say from 1,075 r. to I,loor. per chest, according to quality. Trans actions are restricted by the difficulty of meeting with good, and the extreme caution of purchasers. The ex portation to China this season has been— Chests.

Indigo —We have nothing new to report in the pros.- poets of tb - e - crop, the plant being generally abundant and healthy in most concerns throughout Lower Ben/. 5 a1, and as far up as Tirhoot; in Jessore and Kishnagur, however, it is stated to continue backward, and will, con sequently, require late rains and moderate inundation to realise the favourable expectations entertained by many p=arties. About Benares and the neighbourhood tho koontics are looking well, but from Shahabad, we have received coznpluinta of the want of moisture, no rain having fallen up to the 27th tilt. Under these circum stances we see no reason to change our opinion that prospects are in favour of a full average season. Exports of the season up to date are as follows, viz:— Chests. Fy. mds. ... 20,852 79,351 6,010 22,104 962 3,270 10 36 1,198 4,148 the Europe mail on the 'utal ••• 29,032 108,909 generally experienced when one Feom the if fi i o --- _ „ EX POETS . slackening produce markets 10 1 l in is the being or our last issue up to the receipt of remained inactive, the dis patched and another hourly expected having case been in some measure increased by the in returnls of the numerous home ward- bound vessels enume rated in our last, almost all of which will have to dis charge the greater portion, if not the whole, of their cargoes. Sugar was almost the only staple in which business continued to be transacted at all freely, and even in this a few hundred bags appear to have been the extent of sales, which, however, are apparently as yet only restricted by the moderate supply of suitable quali ties, arrivals of the new Benares continuing unusually light for the advanced period of the season. In saltpetre the business done has been moderate, the inquiry for all parts being languid, and purchasers showing a disposi tion to await fresh arrivals. Rice continued almost en tirely neglected for all parts, until the receipt of the late account of the reaction at home, since which there has been more inquiry, although we believe but little has as yet been done, whilst shipments to the Mauritius have been rendered almost impracticable by the extreme rates demanded for tonnage (about 3.8 rupees per bag). Silk has continued in moderate inquiry, the unprecedentedly low rates current here and the facilities offered to speculators by the export warehouses having induced a few purchasers to come forward ; still, however, the demand has not been either extensive or general, and, the market being fairly supplied, there has been no symptoms of any advance in price. In silk piece goods scarcely a single transaction has transpired, business continuing completely at a stand, and prices all but nominal. The large purchases previously made in shellac and lac dye having almost cleared the market, and induced holders of what remains to show great firm• ness, but little has of late been done in either article ; the inquiry, however, continues. In safflower we have nothing new to report, arrivals having continued moderate, and found a ready sale at fully previous rates, say 40r. to 42r. per maund. The hide market remains quiet, the business done having been moderate, and at about pre vious rates. In jute but few sales have been reported, but in those prices have been fully maintained. Linseed is in moderate inquiry for America, but for the European markets business in all seeds continues at a stand. Cot ton has been arriving pretty freely, and the greater por tion having been purchased in the up country marts for shipment on arrival, there has been an extensive inquiry for tonnage, the scarcity of which has alone kept ex ports on their late moderate scale. In this market we are not aware of any parcels having changed hands. There has again been some speculative transactions in opium, in consequeence of which, notwithstanding the absence of shipments, the advance quoted in our last has been maintained. The season is approaching its close, only two sales remaining to come off, one of which is advertised for the 14th instant, and the other for the 12th proximo. Exports from the Ist inst. up to date, have been as follows, viz.:— North Great Britain. America.

In piece goods not the slightest alterati m has taken place, a moderate business having again been done a ith out change in value of any descriptions ; the same may be said of the yarn market, in which but little has b, en done, holders, generally speaking, demanding an ad vance for mule twist a hich buyers will not as yet submit to; in red yarn, however, a fair amount of sales is re ported; the lower descriptions of coloured and printed goods have in some measure maintained the improve ment noticed in our last, but the better descriptions continue comparatively neglected; Turkey red goods have attracted more attention, and there has been a fair business doing in them of late; in woollens we have na further improvement to notice. The metal market con tinues in a most unsatisfactory position, the advance in value at home and great disproportion between the prices current there and bete having as yet apparently been productive of no effect on dealers ; the further re duction in the value of tile copper, as quoted in our last, brought forward a few buyers, and it has regained the decline; in other descriptions a fair business has been done, but unaccompanied by any improvement in prices; ircr. maintains its value, but there is but little doing; spelter has been placed pretty freely at from 10 Com pany's rupees la. to 10 C om p an y' s ru p ees 3a. per maund.

For two or three minutes after the start they were oar and oar, and then Blue came out with the lead of half a length ; Red put on a spirt and came up to their No. I oar. A few more dash ing strokes followed, and then Red drew in advance, every foot of water being gallantly contested be tween them. At one time Red were a length in advance of their opponents, but as they approached Hammer smith-bridge Blue began to pick them up. Red, who was nearest the Surrey shore, instead of going inside the dumb lighter at the bridge went round, but Blue steered inside, and when they again came into the clear course they were almost as level as at the moment of starting. A desperate effort put Blue a length ahead, and their opponents were within a few yards of the distance post. GENTLEMEN A MA TEURS' EIGHT -OARED AIATCH Fon THE GRAND CHALLENGE CUP.

We have received the following important intelli gence by telegraphic dispatch from Marseilles : " The Bombay papers of the 29th of July state that a new reduction has been effected in the army. " The Goomsor was on fire from one extremity to the other. " The affairs of the Nizam continued to he in the greatest confusion. " The Governor-General and the Commander-in- Chief were at Simla. The former was to return to Calcutta in October. "All was tranquil in the Punjaub. There was an appearance of tranquillity in Affghanistan. " Dost Mahomed was desirous of contracting an alliance with the Government of India. " There was nothing new from Sinde." INDIA. We have received by our ordinary semi-monthly courier from Marseilles our dispatches in anticipa tion of the Overland Mail from Bombay, of the 20th of June. The intelligence thus received is of considerable interest. It is the more so, as two attempts to send letters from Bombay to Europe vid Madras had failed. The express from Bombay was robbed on the Bhore Ghaut on the 3d of June ; and a second ex press, of the sth of June, arrived too late in Madras for the Bentinck steamer on her voyage from Calcutta to Suez. From the Punjaub we learn that an exchange of territory had been effected between Ghoolab Singh and the Lahore Government. The territory given up by Ghoolab consists of certain mountain (Hazareh) districts, the chiefs of which were by no means in clined to submit to his rule. He had obtained .a slice of territory called the Kurree Kurreealee. Ghoo lab had taken up his residence at Cashmere, and appeared to wish to be called the Maharaja of Cashmere rather than of Jamoo. He had received Colonel Steinbach into his service. His system of taxation was not calculated to render his government popular. In Lahore there had been talk of a conspiracy, the details of which were not exactly known. Its object was said to be to avenge the insults received by the Ranee (Queen-Mother) on Tej Singh. Runjoor Singh (the Chief Justice of Lahore), having been dismissed, had threatened to excite a fanatical war; but the British officers were on the alert. A rumour was in circulation that some serious disturbances might be expected in Lahore after the next Dussera. At Peshawur, the return of Sultan Mahommed Khan which was effected by the influence of the English, had produced the best impression on the inhabitants, and even on the neighbouring Affghan tribes, the chiefs of which had proposed terms of friendship and alliance. Major Lawrence, who acts for the Gover nor-General at Peshawur, had ordered Aspar Singh, the late Governor, to return to Lahore. From Affghanistan there is no news of import ance. Dost Mahommed, having settled the disputes in the neighbourhood of Jellalabad, had returned to Caubul. His son Hyder Khan had been appointed Governor on the frontier near the Khyber pass. The death of the late Wuzeer, Akbar Khan, had brought about a cessation of hostilities in that part of Aff ghanistan, and there was a chance of peace during the lifetime of the old llhost. He had allowed agents from the Governor-General to take up their stations, under the name of news•writers, at various places in his dominions. In Sinde the utmost tranquillity prevailed. The trade by the Indus was likely to obtain soon a re _ hml, by orders of the Supreme Government, issued a noti fication declaring that goods coming by way of Sinde shall be admitted free into Bombay. This is a great advantage to the trade of the Indus. Sir C. Napier was at Kurrachee. The Governor-General was at Simla, where he in tended to remain during the rainy season. Lord and Lady Gough were also there. The robber Dhongur had recommenced his depre dations ; he had plundered some caravans. The disturbances which were lately apprehended in the Deccan had passed over. In consequence of the Nizam's having given up for the time his in trigues, arrangements had been male, by establish. ing a bank at Hyderabad, and by opening a loan, to make provisions for the wants of the Treasury. In the Goomsoor country fresh disturbances had broken out; the infuriated fanatics were again in arms, and had offered up more human sacrifices. Mr. Grant, of the Bengal Civil Service, had been ordered to ex amine into the grounds of the disputes between Bri gadier Dyce and the other officers employed in paci fying those districts. The efforts made by Akbar Khan to induce the Schah of Persia to enter into a Moslem war against the British in the East had failed. The Cajar Sove reign of Persia told Akbar's emissaries, on hearing them state the object of their mission, that he placed no confidence either in the Affghans or in their pro mises. Some fanciful rumours had been current re lative to the interference of Russia, but nothing cer tain was know❑ on the subject. The Governor-General was about to send a political mission to the capital of Thibet, in order to open peaceful relations with the Government of the Grand Lama at Lassa. The reduction of the British troops in India is spoken of. Six regiments of her Majesty's army were, as it was reported, to be sent to Europe at the close of this year. Forty thousand sepoys had been removed from the army within the last six months, which diminution, together with that of the Royal regiments, will lighten the burdens on the Indian finances. The Five per Cent. Loan still continued open, but as it was already at a discount, very little was then being subscribed to it. No later intelligence from China was known in Bombay than that which:came by the last mail. The death of Sir David Pollock, the Chief Justice of Bombay, is quoted as an example which ought to deter elderly gentlemen from trying a tropical climate. Sir E. Perry has since discharged the duties of the Supreme Court to the satisfaction of all parties ; he is expected to succeed as Chief Justice, to which his legal knowledge and hi 3 experience of India fully entitle him. The Governor and Commander-in-Chief of Bombay were at Poona, where they intended to remain dur ing the rains. The monsoon had set in at Bombay with an un usual fall of rain, of which about twenty-five inches had fallen before the 19th of June. In a postscript, dated the 20th of June, our cor respondent states that the steamer was delayed for nearly twenty-four hours in consequence of the non arrival of the Governor's dispatch from Poona. The only point of political importance to which ' our correspondent alludes is the state of Hyderabad, in the Deccan. Violence and bloodshed were the order of the day there. The troops called the Ro hillas, whom General Frazer had endeavoured to induce to leave the Nizam's country, were returning by degrees to it. They were implicated in several gang robberies, and ordered to be deported. They came near the cantonment, quarrelled amongst them selves, when Hassein-ood-Deep Khan was killed ; his assassin was cut to pieces. Letters from Dinapore m ention that the cholera was ravaging her Majesty's 98th Regiment; 64 per sons died in the month of May; there were 170 i n the hospital daily. A fire broke out in the fort at Bombay in the evening of the 19th of June, which consumed the British Hotel , a b uildin g well k flown, i n one of the principal thoroughfares, FREIGHTS..
