OPENING OF THE PARIS AND HAVRE RAILWAY. This great and useful work is at length opened to the public. On Saturday the inauguration t o k place, in the presence of the directors and their friends, and on Monday the regular trains commenced running, and at the present moment the journey from Paris to the sea, mid from Havre to the capital, can be accomplished with ease and comfort in six hours and a half. When it is recollected that within little more than two years the same journey occupied six and thirty hours, the import ance of the undertaking may be conceived. The inauguration on Saturday was conducted, in as far as the directors were concerned, with great sim plicity. Taking into consideration the great suffering in the country, in consequence of the scarcity of food, and looking to the misery existing in the very districts 1 through which the railway passes, from the excessive dearness of provisions, the directors decided that they could not inaugurate their railway more appropriately than by applying the amount which in more prosperous .errs would have been expended in festivity to the relief of tbe poor. They, therefore, resolved to distribute I ieoool. in the districts through which the Havre Railway passes, and that sum was accordingly placed in the h i ands of the proper tutheritie s , to b e di str ib ute d iu the tollowit.g preportions :-1,500f. to th e p oor o f th e town of Havr, ; 1,500 f. tor the city of Rouen ; I,ooof. for Irgouville; I,ooof. for Graville ; and 7,000 F, fur t.ls oth,r communes through which the line passes. But althoug a great, formal, and expensive inauguration was justly considered by the directors as, in the present circum s t ances of t h e country, inapp eo p r i ate end unbe coming, it was though necessary that some of the tor , roaliti,-, usual on such occasions should be observed, in order that the pubic might be aware that the lino Was at length actual:y Opened for it= service, a fact which it was the more necessary to make generally known, as, from the unprecedented and wholly unnecessary difficed ties, thrown by the Minister of Public Works and the department of the Ponts et ChausFe-!s in the way of the company, people began to doubt if the Ike would be ripened at all. Accordingly the directors invited a few of their friends to visit the works on Saturday. The guests were limited to one hundred, and consisted of the chairman and some of the directors of the principal rail ways round Paris, the engineers and principal employes on the railway, some of the principal shareholders in the line, and the representatives 'of the fourth estate of Paris, who, by the bye, outnumbered all the other guests. M. Charles Laffitte, the chairman of the direc tors ; M. de l'Espee, deputy ; Count d'Alton-Shee, peer of France ; M. Dailly, director of the Poste et Chevaux at Paris ; and M. Blount, banker, directors, were all present. Among the principal guests were the directors of the Orleans and Northern Railway, the Duke de pouchy, the Mayors of Havre and Rouen, M. Du bois, deputy for Havre ; M. Vital, deputy for Bolbec ; M. Theophile Gautier, M. Alphonse Karr, &c. The train, consisting of eight first-class carriages belonging to the Havre Company, started from the Rouen Railway station at Paris at seven in the morning, and reached Rouen at a quarter before ten. At Rouen a handsome breakfast was provided for the guests, which having been done ample justice to, the train started for Havre. It is hardly necessary to remind our readers that the country between Rouen and Havre, through which this line passes, is the most beautiful as well as the richest for agricultural products and manu factures in all France. Throughout the whole distance the traveller is delighted with a succession of splendid landscapes and river views, delightful valleys studded with villages and country seats, and thousands of cot tages teeming with an industrial and comfortable manu facturing • population. In the course of the journey charming views are got of Ivetot, Bolbec, Harfleur, and other picturesque old Norman towns, with occasional peeps of the Seine, and of the opposite coast of Nor mandy. But the beauties of nature are not the only at tractions of the journey. To the man of science the railway itself is the greatest curiosity. For a long time it was thought impracticable to make a line of railway to Havre, but the spirit and the genius of our own countrymen (for almost every one el) nnected with the works is English), overcame every difficulty, and the Havre line stands at the present moment a monument of the skill of Mr. Locke, the head engineer, and of Messrs. Mackenzie and Brassey, the contractors. There is no railway in Europe, which, in pro. portion to its length (58 miles), has anything like the same number of stupendous works in the shape of tunnels, viaducts, cuttings, and embankments, as the Havre line has. There is hardly a bit of level ground in the whole distance. The consequence is, that every portion of the line shows, even to the uninitiated eye, the great amount of skill, labour, and perseverance necessary for its accomplishment. The train stopped at the stupendous viaducts of Barrentin, Malannay, and Mirville, and also at some o f t h e tunnels, in order to allow the guests to examine these extraordinary works, which are well calculated to give an idea of the immense difficulties which the engineers had to contend with, and which they have so completely surmounted. At all the towns and villages on the line the popula tion flocked in great numbers to celebrate an event so fraught with important consequences to them, and at the principal towns (with the single exception of Rouen) the authorities also and the national guards turned out to do honour to the occasion. At Havre the train was received with great enthusiasm. Besides all the princi pal inhabitants of the place, the whole of the authorities in their robes *state, the troops of the garrison; the national guards, the magistracy in their robes of office, and the members of the, her in _their caps and _gowns --, were stationed .at the entbarcadere ready to receive the directors and their guests on their arrival. Immediately on the appearance of the train a salute of cannon was fired, and the whole of the troops presented arms, and the assembled thousands rent the air with their enthu siastic cheering. The Bishop cf Havre, who was present at the head of a large body of the clergy, and of a procession with ban ners, &c., offered up a prayer in favour of the under taking, and blessed the railway, the engine, &c., in the usual torn]. The sous-prefet of Havre then addressed a short speech to the public on the advantages which the railway was calculated to confer on the town of Havre, and thanked the din ctors and promoters of the under taking in the name of his fellow-citizens--a speech which was replied to by M. Charles Laffitte, the chairman of the directors. The distance from Paris to Havre, notwithstanding the numerous delays and stoppages on the way, was accom plished in six hours and a quarter. The directors, accompanied by their guests from Paris and Rouen, and the authorities at Havre, then adjourned to a handsome dinner provided by the company at the Hotel Frascati, where 200 gentlemen were entertained. After dinner the chairman (M. Laffitte) proposed the health of the King, which was drunk with all the honours. The health of the chairman was then drunk by acclamation, and respended to by M. Laffitte. The next teaet was the health of Mr. Locke, the principal engineer, which was drunk with great enthusiasm. Mr. Locke, in his reply, alluded' to the extraordinary and vexatious delays in the opening of the line, whica had been caused by the Minister of Public Works, and the Departments of the Ponta et Chaus sees. lie also aLuded to the extraordinary trials to which the works on the line bad been sub jected by order of the Government engineers, trials which were not only wholly unprecedented in the history of railways, but which were equally absurd and unnecessary. He pledged his professional reputation for the fact that there never was a line opened to the public in a better working state, or the works on which were safer or more solidly constructed than those of the Ilavre Railway, and he declared that there could not be a better pi oof of these works than the fact that, though the Government engineers (whether from envy or a more laudable feeling he did not know) had done all in their power to crush the viaducts, by laying weights upon them which by no possible future combination of circumstances they could be called upon to bear, not a stone had moved, nor a brick cracked, throughout the whole of them. I le then alluded to the extraordinary opposition which the company had met with from the authorities of the city of Rouen—an opposition which showed much more selfishness than patriotism, and e hich formed a striking contrast with the slavish servi lity of the same persons when the question was as to the making of a line between Rouen and Paris. The oily other toast given was that of Mr. Mac kenzie, the eminent engineer and principal contractor for the works on the line. The train started for Paris again at ten minutes past four, and arrived in Paris before half-past ten, having performed the journey again in six hours and a quarter. In concluding this slight sketch of what was a most agreeable and interesting trip, we cannot help noticing a circumstance that was the subject of a good deal of comment among the guests. Not one of the members of the Royal Family was present. The Mi nister of Public Werks and his whole staff were also absent; and, in short, at the opening of the Havre line, the French Government, and all those connected with it, took as little part as if the line was of no importence to France or her commerce. How tomes this? At the opening of the Rouen line the princes were present; at the opening of the Northern line they also attended, and at the opening of the small section of the Bordeaux line between Orleans and Tours there were not only princes, but ministers and public functionaries without number. How, then, comes it that the inauguration of the Rouen and Havre Railway—the line that unites Paris with the Atlantic—should not have been honoured with the presence of any of these great personages? Surely it is as important as any of the others. Shall we tell the reason alleged on Saturday? It was said that they absented themselves for the same reason that induced M. Durnon and his understrappers to give so much annoyance to the company, to cause so much vexatious and unnecessary delay in the opening of a; : ,i g; . e l i of f thoughtot h n a e t , the works, and to subject the undertakers of it to an ipseGr.ni. consid ered cittibnoeu, a l ttn it Eh enormous and useless expense.

OVERLAND MAIL (From the 7ime-) We have received by our ordhary semi-monthly express from Marseilles our dispaches from India in anticipation of the Bombay mails A . the 16th ult. They bring no remarkable intelligence. The affairs of Lahore continued to require the utmost vigilance and activiiy of the aims employed there. Colonel Lawrence and his assistans administered the Government to the best effect, aid the inhal,itants had some hopes of improving their condition under the British rule. It was stated that no troops would be sent to the frontier station at Peshawur. Some of the mountaineers in the Ilazaeh districts had re volted, but their forces had been routed by the young chief called Ghoolab Singh, who; although possessing the same name, is not of the family of the Maharaja of Jammoo. Old Ghoolab Singh was rejoicing in the success of his manoeuvres. He had raised , himself to a throne, and even on that occasion he outwitted, as he int.sup posed, the Briti s h di p l omat i sts, y i n d uc i ng th em t o give up the di s t r i c t s o f Cash e, which he repre sented as being very poor, not Wing more than six or seven lacs, whereas he ni?*..fapoqta to obtain twenty or twenty-two froin the inhabitants. The news from Affghanistan is not satisfactory. Akbar Khan, the son and Wuzeer of Dost Mahom med, had returned from Candahar to Caubul, having one of his uncles in his company. The report of the fight near Candahar is contradicted by accounts sent from Caubul. The true state of Affghanistan cannot easily be known, for all the statements circulated respecting that country are derived from the native writers in the pay of the Delhi Gazette, and they dare not send intelligence from Caubul which is dis pleasing to the Wuzeer. The intrigues and quarrels of Akbar Khan were not yet fully developed. Sir Charles Napier went in the beginning of February from Kurrachee to Hyderabad. Prior to his departure from Kurrachee the following genera' order or manifesto was issued " GENERAL ORDER. .... " The army of Sinde is ordered to be broken up, and two te r i years o r a g o. tranquillity But the characterof t S i nde might , he number of troops reduced, so as, i n f uture, to form .he ordinary garrison of a frontier p rov i nce. ‘have as beenreg regards se the he in of the Lahore Government and of its troops made it necessary for the Government of India to keep an army in Sinde. " The danger apprehended from the Punjaub subsided after the victories gained on the Sutlej. " The concentration of a large 'force on the Indus ceased to be necessary. " To the army of Sinde is due the tranquillity of this noble province. " To the discipline and orderly conduct of all, and the support which the officers of this army have given to me by their just and conciliating conduct towards the people, England is indebted for the tranquil possession of a country which the valour of the troops had con quered. " To the abilities of those officers who have, from the first, conducted the civil branches of this Government, and to their unremitting exertions in the administration of justice, is more especially to be attributed the suc cessful administration of the province, that attachment to the British rule, and that confidence which has been so strongly evinced by the inhabitants of Sinde on two signal occa lions—the cempaign in the Boogtie Hills and the march of the Sinde force to Bhawulpoor. " But to the glory of freeing an enslaved country by a necessary conquest, and the consequent tranquillity of an apparently satisfied people, this army has added an increase of revenue to the company. " The last financial year showed that the united ordinary and extraordieary expenses of the civil Go vernment of Sinde (including the expense of a police force of 2,400 horse and foot) amounted to only 15 lacs 1,754 rupees. " That the revenue for that year was 41 isles 42,912 rupees, and, consequently, that 25 lacs were paid last year towards defray ing the military expense incurred / not by the conquest of Sinde in 1843, but by the pre vious occupation of Sinde, and by the disturbed state of the Punjaub. Previous to the conquest, the army of Sinde was an unmitigated expense to the East India Company. " Since the conquest that expense has been reduced by the aggregate sum of 42 lacs 37,435 rupees, which has been collected in excess of the ex' enses of civil gevt rii ment and police force, calculating both from the battle of Hyderabad to the present day. "Thus, whatever the previous occupation may have produced, the conquest of Slade has not cost the East India Company a single rupee, for had the Ameers con tinued to rule the land, not a soldier could have been withdrawn from the force which occupied Sinde in 1842; on the contrary, strong reinforcements must have been added to it, divided, as it would have been, between Kurrachee and Sukkur, with the aggregated forces of the Courts of Hyderabad and Kyrepoor assembled, in a central position, between the weak wings of the army of occupation—wings separated by 400 miles of difficult country, and incapable of assisting each other or of re ceiving any reinforcements during five months of every year. " Such a position must have been untenable, or te nable only in consequence of egregious folly . on the part of an enemy who commanded 100,000 men in a central position. "An army divided as I have stated would probably have been cut to pieces; for apparently there could not have been any retreat. " The prompt military operations ordered by Lord Ellenborough in 1843 not only saved the army of Sinde from the fait which betel that of Caubul, but secured the north-west frontier of the Indian empire, speaking of Sinde in a military point of view—while in a commer• cial one, as commanding th e nav i gat i on o f the Indus, it is the key to the Punjaub. "Not a man has been add e d t o th e a rmy of occupa tion in consequence of the conquest . Sinde was cor quered by the troops which previously occupied Sukkur. " This is a fact which cannot be too often repeated. "But this is not all. The advanced frontier has a right to the troops that occupied the former retired frontier extending from Bhooj to Balmeer. The latter no longer require garrisons, and consequentlyth e con quest of Sinde has not entailed the necessity .for having additional troops or throwing greater dut ies on the Bombay army; whereas, but for the conquest , not a soldier could now be withdrawn, or the Indus would be closed to commerce even though the Punjaub were opened! "No troops, beyond the police, are now required to preserve the interior tranquilli ty o f Sinde. The increas ing revenues are thrown into the Indian treasury. " The military charges belong to India generally, not to Sinde more than to any other province of the empire. " An immense increase of revenue has taken place in Bombay in consequence of the conquest of Sinde, which prevents the smuggling trade in opium , formerly carried on; what may be the amount of this increase I have no means of knowing, but it is said to be very great. " Commerce is already actively commencing between Kurrachee and Sukkur, ready to branch forth into the Punjaub when the results following the victories on the Sutlej shall open the ' Five Rivers to the enterprising spirit of British merchants. " Sukkur, ordered by Lord Ellenboroush to be called Victoria on the Indus,' has becom e the depot for goods passing into Central Asia. " Such, soldiers of the Sinde a rm y , h ave been the services of those regiments which conquered, and o f those which have occupied Sinde since the conqu es t. soldier, that has body ay given cause of complaint to the inhabitants. " There has been perfect harmony between the During this period of four years there has not been a single political crime, conspiracy , or act of hostility o f asiiinde ykind, againstpub ltihceor Government,pri te,cs orm iatgteadinbayt theth troops, or th e p eople of of a officers, gainstany any individual.

" This adds more glory to our arms and to the British name than even the victories which you won on th e fields of Meanee and of Hyderabad. Courage m ay w i n a battle, but it is something more than courageous when a victorious army turns a conquered people into friends and peaceable subjects ! " Such, soldiers ! have been the results of your labours and your dangers, and those regiments which return to their respective presidencies return with the becoming pride of men who have well performed their duty and g gained the approbation of their Sovereign and their Governments—:he greatest reward that well-disciplined soldiers can receive !

B ut it becomes your General, who best knows what you have done, and what you have suffered, to make known, on the breaking up of this army, the things which it has achieved for India, his admiration of its merits, and his gratitude for its assistance. " The high military spirit which animated the force that marched last year to Bhawulpoor was probably never surpassed. No army was ever more worthy of India, nor more fully possessed the confidence of its commander. "C. J. NAPIER, " Lieutenant General, Governor of Scinde. "Head-quarters, Kurrachee, Jan. 28." Lord Hardinge was expected to arrive at Meerut RAILWAY COMMITTEES. (YESTERDAY.) HOUSE OF COMMONS. GROUP L The Select Commits*e appointed to consider the merits of the Bills comprised in this group, assembled in Room 30, at the usual hour, this morning; Lord Granville Somerset in the chair. THE SOUTH-EASTERN SCHEMES• Mr. Bidder's cross-examination was continued. He was cross examined by Mr. Hope, Mr. Paget, and 'Mr. Gregory, on the petitions of landed proprietors; and by Sir Walter Riddell on behalf of the wardens of the King's Ferry, on the River Swale, who complained that their interests would be seriously interfered with by the proposed North Kent line to Sheerness. ➢ir. Bidder was re-examined at considerable length by Mr. ALEXANDER, in the course of which it was elicited that as between London and Alford the cost of the works on the Brighton line would be 250,C00/. more than that of the South• Eastern. The interest of that sum would pay for the locomotive power between Tonbridge and London. He was no advocate for bad gradients where batter could be got; they were always expensive and incon venient. For instance, had the Brighton line been made along the valley it might have been a little longer, but it would have cost less, while the superior gradients would have admitted of the journey to Brighton being per f ealel in less time than on the direct line. Witli regard to gradients there was no comparison between the South-Eastern and the Brighton schemes. Those of the former were immeasurably the best, and as a necessary con sequence would cost the least, and be worked the cheapest. On such an occasion as the Derhy-dayhe had no doubt the Brighton Company would be glad to use the South-Eastern Croydon line, in order to avoid the New Cross incline of 1 in 100. The Committee adjcurned at four till twelve o'clock on Thursday. GROUP XII. This Committee met to-day at twelve o'clock; the Hon. Mr. S. Lascelles in the chair. All the other members were present. NEWMARKET AND CHESTERFORD RAILWAY EXTENSION. Mr. HILDYARD summed up his evidence on behalf of this scheme at great length, contending that it possessed far greater general advantages that the competing scheme. Mr. CALVERT then replied on behalf of the Lynn and Ely Extensions. At the close of the Learned Gentleman's address the room was cleared for a division. On the admission of the parties, The CHAIRMAN stated that the Committee had decided the preambles of the following Bills to be proved : Newmarket and Chesterford Railway (Extension to Thet. ford). Newmarket and Chesterford (Extension to Bury St. Ed mund's, &c.) Newmarket and Chesterford Railway Act Amendment, &c. And that the preambles of the following Bills were not proved : Lynn and Ely (Extension to Bury St. Edmund's). Ipswich and Bury St. Edmund's (No.2)—(Newmarke tand IY). Ipswich and Bury St. Edmund's (No. 3)—(Bury to Thet ford). The Committee then adjourned till Friday next, for tb• :on sideration of the clauses. STANDING ORDERS COMMITTEE. The Committee met yesterday at the usual hour, for the dis patch of public business. EDINBUURGH AND PERTH RAILWAY. This was the only case which was called before the atten tion of the Committee. The entire day was occupied in the examination of witnesses. Much interest was evinced to know the decision of the Committee, but it is generally believed that another day will be spent in the further inves tigation of the merits of the case. The Committee adjourned a little before five o'clo2k. PARLIAMENTARY BUSINESS. From the Votes and Proceedings of the House of Commons.) MONDAY, MARCH 22.

[ADVERTISEMENT.] —A SEVERE AFFECTION OF THE CHEST AND LUNGS CURED BY lIOLLOWAY'S BlLLS.—Extract Of a let ter; dated Bandon, March '2, 1847 :—" To Professor H olloway—Sir, A young lady resides here, whose chest and wags were in so delicate a state, that from the leait cold her difficulty of breathing was such that she could ()My get relief by blistering. She had little or no ap petite, and was so weak and d bilitated as to be obliged to rest even in going up one flight of stairs ; but, by rather a long use of your Pills, I am happy to say she has been restored to perfect health. — (Signed) WILLIAM BROWN." Sold by all druggists, and at Professor Holloway's Establishment, 244,3:r01e/ix MARCH 24, 1847. about the middle of February. The Commander-in- Chief was encamped at Kurnaul. The Nizam's dominions present still the old mise rable spectacle of an impoverished Government and an unpaid, plundering, and unruly soldiery. The intelligence of a bloody usurpation of' the throne of Burinah is - confirmed. The King, who succeeded Tharawaddie, has been murdered, and his power seized by one of the Woongies. In tha interior of India tranquillity prevailed, with the exception of .the Goomsoor -country, which was not yet thoroughly pacified. The daughter of the late Nawab of Bhopaul had been placed on the musnud by the British Resident, Mr. Hamilton, in the most imposing manner. The news of the appointment of Sir Willoughby Cotton to be Commander-in-Chief of the Bombay army had reached Bombay. The rise in the price of cotton had given cause for a rise in freights. (From the Bombay Times.) The announcement of the intended reduction of the army, contained in our last, has for a fortnight past formed subject of general speculation. We have at pre sent on the muster roll several hundred officers and 70,000 men of all arms more than we possessed when the Affghan war began. Besides the reduction of 200 men from each Sepoy regiment, a number of irregular corps are to be altogether broken up. To meet the cur rent deficiencies of the revenue, retrenchments to the extent of a million and a half on our annual expenditure must be effected. - The Governor:General has directed that labour at public works shall be suspended on Sundays throughout India. A similar measure three years since, introduced by Sir George Arthur into Bombay, has been eminently successful. Though the natives dislike our faith, they despise us when they see us neglect the precepts of the religion we profess. We have no intelligence whatever from our north west frontier or the Punjaub, where everything seems as tranquil as possible. The Baja Lall Singh, ex-Minister, has reached Agra, and been confined in the fort. His family have accom panied him into exile, but for the present are kept apart from him till the pleasure of the Governor-General shall be known. The state of affairs in Affghanistan would seem to be improving. Akbar Khan had returned to Caubul from Candahar, accompanied by one of its Sirdars. The Wuzeer's visit was one of friendship to his rela tives, and not a hostile one. The report th:A he had captured the city and taken his uncles prisoners, turns out to have been false. The King of Burmah has been assassinated by one of his Woongies, who has usurped the throne of Ava. The murdered Prince was made Regent on the deposition of King Tharawaddie, and succeeded him on his demise. Mr. Colvin, the new Commissioner of the Tenasserim provinces, seems to be gaining the good wishes of the residents of Maulmain. The ex-Commissioner has left Calcutta for England—it is said to seek redress for his removal at the hands of the Court of Directors. The disturbances in the Goomsoor districts still con tinue, and reinforcements of troops from the neighbour ing cantonments are being poured into the country. Considerable sickness prevails amongst those already located in the district. It is said that Major-General Welsh and his staff are about proceeding to the scene of disturbance, to carry on effective measures for its•sup pression. General Cubbon, Commissioner at Mysore, has, it is said, had an interview with the Raja, and presented him with a letter from our Government recommending some chances of importance in the administration of hie affairs, which have been promised to be attended to. The Maharaja of Nepaul is about returning to hit capital from Benares, where he has been for some time on a pilgrimage. The only daughter of the late Nawab of Bhopaul has been placed on the throne of her ancestors by our resi dent at Indore, Mr. Hamilton. The ceremony was an imposing one, and at its conclusion a khilut was conferred on the Shahjehan Begum from the Governor General. Lord Hardinge was expected to reach Meerut about the middle of the present month ; Lord Gough was at latest dates at ICurnaul, and the Lieutenant-Governor of the north-west provinces at Malwa. Sir George Pollock, military member of the Council of India, has bee❑ compelled to retire from India in consequence of bad health; he retires to England by the Cape. As an officer, General Pollock has never met with a tithe of the applause he deserved. The smallness of the sacrifice of life which occurred to his army on their way from Pe shawur to Caubul has been accepted as an evidence of the ease of the enterprise instead of the consummate skill and caution of the General. The manoeuvres by which the Khyber, Tez , en, and IChoord Caubul passes were forced in the face of a triumphant and furious enemy had no parallels, save in the career of the Duke of Wel lington, in the military annals of our country. A sword, value 300 guine.s, has b"en voted to Sir Henry Smith by the community of Calcutta, in token of their estimation of the services rendered the country by him in the late Seikh campaign. The Gallant General quits India for England immediately; The Bombay Polytechnic Institute is now organized, the Governor, Ar. Clerk, having consented to become patron; Sir David Pollock, F.R.S., Chief Justice, to be President. The overland mail of the 7th of January, once more five days behind her time, came into harbour on Sunday evening. The weather continues extremely cold, and in various parts of the Bombay presidency there has within the last fortnight been ice on the shallow pools. Trade continues dull. The late opium gambling trans actions have been pronounced illegal. COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. BOMBAY MARKE"CS. REPORT FROM THE IST TO THE 16TH OF FEBRUARY.

Nail rod, both square and round, in demand. Swedish steel in tubs and faggots have become dull. Lead in pig, steady; sheets dull. Copper sheets and sheath ing continue steady, and we hear of 1,600 cwt. having been recently imported, consisting of 1,200 cwt. of the former and 400 cwt. of the latter, and which have been sold at rupees 60k and of rupees 58k respectively; as also 200 cwt. of files imported with above, have been sold at 50 cwt.; and 75 cwt., that was imported previously, was sold at 501.

Bass—There is a moderate stock ; quotations 50r. per hogshead. Cotton—On the arrival of the overland mail of the 24th December the prices advanced, and 80f. were paic. for old Dhollerah, and 841 r. for Broach and Jambooser; but soon after the price declined, owing to the rise in freight. The ensuing crop has been sightly- injured in the Goozerat provinces by the frost, bin it is calculated the product of the season, when put together, of all the growing countries, will still exceed that of last year. There are only small quantities of New Kandeish ar rived, which have been sold at 86r. per candy.

Mangarole Opium has slightly risen, and I,loOrs, been paid for first quality. Freight, owing to the extreme scarcity of tonnage, has risen to 71. for Liverpool, at which actual engagements have taken place to the extent of 3,500 bales; and we quote the same rate for Lond in. To China it has ad vanced to 21irs., at which the whole cargo of a vessel has been taken As our cotton crop is large, it is ex pected that the freight throughout the busy cotton sea son will keep up high. Exchange has risen 2s. id. for bills from China, and to 2i. id. to 2s. -id. for local, six months' sight; and at all these rates large transactions have been done for the mail. MILITARY INTELLIGENCE.

LOLL MONTES.—A correspon,lent, writing fr um Paris, says—" The letter signed Lola Moines, .ind published by the Times with a leading article to express its gratitude to the lady for selecting it as tier is a forgery, well as one-half of the stories abro,o ah7ut that lady. Jesuits are annoyed to find th a t they have lust a large u' pr tion of their influence in Bavaria, and they are therefore doing all in their power to cast ridicule upon the King, whom they now consider as their worst enemy. It is oil this acc o u n t that the affair of Lola M on t es has been made so much of.
