It brings a confirmation of the brilliant successes of Sir Chas. Napier in Scinde, in the capital of which treasure and jewels to an amount considerably exceeding one million have been dis covered. Doubts have been entertained if this treasure trove is to be considered prize money. Lord Ellenborough has declared, according to rumour, in favour of the gallant army that won the city of Hyderabad. The matter has been re ferred to the Queen in council. In the meantime the gover nor-general has declared Scinde to be • a British province, abolished slavery therein, and appointed Sir C. Napier to be the governor; and also declared all transit duties abolished, and the Indus opened to the ships of all nations. Lord Ellenborough has also ordered that the useless cannon taken at Hyderabad shall be cast into a column to com memorate the memory of all the soldiers who distinguished themselves in the battle of .Meeanee. Scinde is said to be a most fertile district, which, when cultivated, will repay every cost tenfold, and render the territories of the Indus some thing like the banks of the Ganges. The position of Sir Charles Napier in Hyderabad required to be attended to, for the population of some districts, led on by some of the disaffected Ameers, were preparing to renew the conflict. The Bombay government was most active in its efforts to send every succour to the gallant general, and troops had been sent from Ferozepore to SUkkur, in order to co-operate with those lower down the river. The Governor-General was at Agra, where he has taken up his residence in one of the palaces, and in which he held an investiture of the Order of the Bath. He has ordered the celebrated Somnauth gates to be locked up there, and the officers employed in escorting them have been sent back to regimental duty. The declaration of Sir Charles Napier, that the Indian army is too scantily officered, has attracted attention, and has become the subject of general comment. The Ameers of Scinde, who are prisoners, will, it is said, be placed for safety in the fortress of Ahmednugger or Asseerghur. Some disturbances still exist in the mountainous districts of liundelkund, but they are not of any great importance. India is otherwise tranquil. The most conflicting accounts were circulated respecting the state of Cabul. Ukhbar Minn is no longer popular there, and another was said to have seized the government. Dost Mohomnied was going back from Lahore to Cabul, but it was not known how he would be received there. He wished to be aided by the Sikhs, but they did not seem inclined to give him any assistance. The news from China extends to the 21st of 'February The latest was brought to Bombay by an American schooner —the Zephyr, which is now plying as an opium trader from Bombay to China, and is remarkable for her swift sailing. The Emperor has ordered an investigation into the murders of the.crews of the Ana and Nerbudda at Formosa. Nothing has been done in the arrangements of the commercial treaty, for the British Plenipotentiary appeared to be waiting for the treaty as ratified by her Majesty. The Chinese Commis sioner and he were on good terms. Doubts are said to exist of the durability of any arrangement now entered into. The Chinese were busy in repairing all their forts and in strength ening their positions in the different places attacked last year. Trade was dull, but expected to revive speedily. At Canton some dissatisfaction still prevailed. The immature revolt at Manilla had been put down, and the rebels ex ecuted. It had for its object to declare the independence of the islands of the Spanish yoke. The Hindostan arrived at Madras, on the 15th of March, 60 hours after the mail had arrived at Bombay., This_rapi- dity promises well for the Steamers from CaleUtta to Suez her arrival at Calcutta took place . on the 23rd, before the express from Bombay with the mail had. reached that city. The Hindustan was obliged, on going up the Hoogly, to anchor at Mud-point from want of water. The Bishop of Calcutta and Metropolitan of. India arrived in Bombay on the 11th of March, where he held his primary visitation, and presicled at the founding of the Great Medical College. A magnificent comet was seen throughout India from th beginning of March, and engaged the attention of .all the astronomers, one of whom actually declared it had become a satellite of the earth—a proposition which set thousands laughing. Dwarkanauth Tajore has been excluded from his family caste, in consequence of his. repeatedly eating with " the unclean Europeans." The captain of the Belvedere, which. ship was hurtled some months ago at Singapore was tried at Bombay for taking goods out of the ship while in harbour. He was honourably acquitted. is steamer bad arrived at Bombay from Kurrachee, which brought intelligence to the 28th of March, and mentioned that a fight of three days had taken place between Sir Chas. Napier and the Ameers, in which the British were success ful. There was great loss on both sides. Report said that the British General was slain, but this part of the report was not credited. The Belbochees had thrown a chain across the Indus, which they intended to defend by fortifications on both sides. Her Majesty's ship Nimrod and two small steamers were about to force the Beloochees to retire and leave the river open. THE CONQUEST OF SCINDE. NOTIFICATION. Palace of Agra, March 5, 1843 The Ameers having signed the new treaty p►oposecl to them on the 14th of February, attacked on the following day with a large force the residence of the British Commissioner. I❑ this treacherous, attack they were repulsed. On the lith Major-General Sir Charles Napier gained a decisive victory over their whole army, and on the 20th the British troops occupied the city of Hyderabad. Six of the Ameers delivered their swords to the British General upon the field of battle. All their guns, ammuni tion. and treasure were taken, together with their camp. The Beloochees lost 5,000 men. Thus has victory placed at the disposal of the British Go vernment the country on both banks of the Indus from Suk kur to the Sea, with the exception of such portions thereof as may belong to Meer Ali, Morad of Khyrpore, and to any other of the Ameers who may have remained faithful to his engagements. _ The Governor-General cannot forgive a treacherous attack upon a representative of the British Government, nor can be forgive hostile aggression prepared by those who were in the act of signing a treaty. It will be the first object of the Governor-General to use the power victory has placed in his hands in the manner most conducive to the freedom of trade, and to the prosperity of the people of Scinde, so long misgoverned. In perpetual commemoration of this brilliant achievement the 2d company 2d battalion, and the 3d company 3d battalion, of Bombay Artillery, and the company of the Madras Sap pers and Miners, will bear upon their appointments, and the 9th regiment of Bengal Light Cavalry, the Poonah Horse and the Scinde Horse, upon their standards and appoint ments, and the 12th and 25th regiments of Bombay Native Infantry, upon their colours and appoinments, the word " Hyderabad, ]843." The regiment of Scinde Horse is on its present establish ment permanently attached to the army of Bombay. The Governor-General directs that a salute of twenty-one g uns be fired at all the stations of the army. By order of the Right Hon. the Governor-General of India, J. THOMASON, Officiating Secretary to the Government of India with the Governor-General. THE VICTORY OF MEEANEE To THE RIGHT HON. LORD ELLENBOROUGH, GOVERNOR GENERAL OF INDIA, &C. Meeanee, 6 miles from Hyderabad, Feb. 18, 1843, My Lord,—The forces under my command have gained a decisive victory over the army of the Ameers of Upper and Lower Scinde. On the 14th inst. the whole body of the Ameers assembled, in full durbar, formally affixed their seals to the draught treaty. On leaving the durbar, Major Outram and his companions were in great peril, a plot had been laid to murder them all. They were saved by the guards of the Ameers ; but the next day (the 15th) the residence of Major Outram was attacked by 8,000 of the Ameers' troops, headed by one or more of the Ameers. On the 16th I marched to Ntottarea: having there ascertained that the Ameers were in position at Meeanee (10 miles distance) to the number of 22,000 men, and well knowing that a delay for reinforcements would both strengthen their confidence and add to their numbers, already seven times that which I commanded, I resolved to attack them, and we marched at 4 a.m. On the morning of the 17th at 8 o'clock the advanced guard dis. covered their camp; at 9 o'clock we formed in order of bat tle, about 2,800 men of all arms and 12 pieces of artillery. We were now within range of the enemy's guns and 15 pieces of artillery opened upon us and were answered by our cannon. The enemy were very strongly posted, woods were on their flanks, which I did not think could be turned. The enemy was 1,000 yards from our line, which soon traversed the intervening space. Our fire of musketry opened at about 100 yards from the bank in reply to that of the enemy, and in a few minutes the engagement became general along the bank of river, on which the combatants fought for about three hours or more with great fury, man to man. Then, my Lord, was seen the superiority of the musket and bayonet over the sword and shield, and matchlock. The brave Belocbees, first discharging their matchlock and pis tols, dashed over the bank with desperate resolution ; but down went these bold and skilful swordsmen under the su perior power of the musket and bayonet. At one time, my Lord, the courage and the numbers of the enemy against the 22d, the 25th, and the 12th Regiments, bore heavily in that .part of the battle. There was no time to be lost, and I sent orders to the cavalry to force the right of the enemy's line. This order was very gallantly executed by the 9th Bengal Cavalry and the Scinde Horse, the details of which shall be afterwards stated to your Lordship, for the struggle on our right and centre was at that moment so fierce, that I could not go to the left. In this charge the 9th Light Cavalry took a standard and several pieces of artillery, and the Scinde Horse took the enemy's camp, from which a vast body of their cavalry slowly retired fighting Lieutenant Fitzgerald ;, and, I understand, Islew three of the enemy in single combat. The brilliant conduct of these two cavalry regiments decided, in my opi nion, tire crisis of the action; for, from the moment the cavalry were seen in rear of their right flank, the resistance of our opponents slackened, the 22d Regiment forced the bank, the 25th and 12th did the same, the latter regiment capturing several guns, and the victory was decided. The artillery made great havoc among the dense masses of the enemy, arid dismounted several of their guns. The whole of the enemy's artillery, ammunition, standards, and camp, with considerable stores and some treasure, were taken. Meer Roosttim Khan, and Meer Nusseer Khan ; Meer Wullee Mahomed, of Khyrpore ; Meer Nusseer Khan, Meer • Shadad Khan, and Meer Hoisein Khan, all of Hyderabad, came'into my camp and surrendered their swords as prisouers of war.

Honourable mention is made of a number of officers, and the despatch is signed by Sir C. Napier. THE ATTACK ON MAJOR OUTRAM. sides d a e sdoe of dense the body of cavalry an d Agency compound The following are the part iculars of thi s outbreak , as con tained in a despatch from M a j or Outram to Sir C. Napier, dated February 15, 1843 : inf A an t tr n y in to e o a li m po . (the fourth being defended by the Pl anet steamer, about 500 stthiosn: Inth°rrenein yards distant) in the garden s and ho uses which immediately command the enclosure , and which it was impossible to hold with our limited numbers. A ho t fire was opened by the enemy, and continued incessa ntl y for four hours ; but at their attempts to enter the Agen c y encl osure , although merely surrounded by a wall, varying from four to five feet high, were frustrated by Captain Conway's able distribution of his small band, and the admirable conduct of every individual soldier composing it. Oar ammunition being limited to 40 pounds per man, the officers directed their whole attention to reserving their fire, and keeping their men close undercover, never showing thechselves or returning a shot, except when the enemy attempted to rush, or showed themselves in great numbers, consequently great execution was done with trifling expenditure of amunition and with little loss. Our hope of receiving a reinforcement, and a supply of ammunition by the Satellite steamer (hourly expected), being disappointed, on the arrival of that vessel without either, shortly after the commencement of the attack, it was decided, ai 12 a.m., after being three hours under fire, to retire to the steamer while atill.vre had sufficient ammunition left to fight the vessel up river. Accordingly I requested Captain Conway to keep the enemy at bay tor one hour, while the property was removed, for which that time was ample, could the camp followers be induced to exert themselves. After delivering their first loads on board, however, they were so terrified at the enemy's cross fire on the clear space between the compound and the vessel, that none could be persuaded to return except a few of the officers' servants, with whose assistance but little could be removed during the limited time , we could afford; conse quently much had to be abandoned, and I am sorry to find that the loss chiefly fell upon the officers and men, who were too much occupied in keeping off the enemy to be able to attend to their own interests. Accordingly, after the ex piration of another hour (during which the enemy, despairing of otherwise effecting their object, hid brought up six guns to bear upon us), we took measures to evacuate the Agency. Captain Conway called in his posts, and all being united, re tired in a body, covered by a few skirmishers, as deliberately as on parade (carrying off our slain and wounded), which, and the fire from the steam-boats, deterred the enemy from pressing us as they might have done. All being embarked, I then directed Mr. Acting Commanding Miller, commanding the Satellite steamer, to proceed with his vessel to the wood station, three miles up the river an the opposite bank, to se cure a sufficiency of fuel for our purposes, ere it should be destroyed by the enemy, while I remained with the Planet, to take off the barge that was moored to the shore. This being a work of some time, during which a hot fire was opened on the vessel from three guns which the enemy brought to bear on her, besides small arms, and requiring much per sonal exposure of the crew (especially of Mr. Cole, the com mander of the vessel). MONTHLY COMMERCIAL RETROSPECT. CHINA The Cotton Market is active, and the dealers have now cleared off their old stocks ; and, since the effects of the new year holidays have passed away, the following rates have been ruling :—Bombay 5 to 7-6 ; Bengal 6 to 7 taels ; Cutchoura 8.5 to 9 ; Jalona 9.4 to 9.5; Tinnevelly 9 to 9.2; and Wes tern 6 to 6.2. The stock, however, on all kinds of cotton in Canton on the Ist February is very large, amounting to 109,114 bales, being about double the quantity in Canton at the same time last season. The following are the particular:: : Deliveries. Stock. Bombay Bengal Madras 6,848 21,171 Total In British manufactures very little has lately been done, chiefly owing to the uncertainty that existed as to the time when the new duties and customs regulations would come into operation. But as it is now understood that no change will take place before July, business will be again resumed, and it is expected with more animation in consequence of the removal of this uncertainty. The stock of Grey Sheetings is much reduced, large ship ments intended for the Canton market having been sent to Chusan and Amoy. 66 reed were then worth Span. dols 3 at 3.05-72 s 3.10 to 3.15. White Skirtings were also in demand at Span. dols 3.10 to 3.20. Of Cotton Yarn the stock is very heavy, the lower number entirely neglected. Nos. 18 to 30 are quoted at Span. dols 27 to 28. Owing to the reduction expected in the duty on Woollens under the new tariff 'none are being now sent to Canton, the holders preferring to store them at Hong-Kong till the change takes place. Superior Spanish Stripes are quoted at 1.15 per yard ; Long-ells assorted 7 Spanish dollars; and Scarlet, 10 dols. per piece. The demand for metals is unusually limited. Lead at sto 5.10 Spanish dols per picul. Nair-rod Iron from 2.70 ; and Bar-Iron 1.70. TEA.—Very little tea has been bought for some time past, owing in some measure to the expected reduction in the duty, and partly also to the obstinacy with which the tea men hold out for higher prices than can be given with safety under present circumstances. Common to fine Congou is quoted at 19 to 25 taels—superior Chops at 27 to 29 taels. It is believed that the teas lately bought have belonged to the Hong merchants, who bold much less firmly than the tea merchants. The only ships loading are the Alexander Baring, Gemini, and James Matheson, all likely to be loaded in the month of February ; but no great addition to the export will be made this monsoon. RAW Stmc.—Of raw Silk the Stocks keep very low, there were only 430 bales in the market, and no more is expected. The finest chops are held for 490 dola to 500 dole, and 470 dols to 475 has been offered for them. Exchange is still quoted at 4s. 10d. CALCUTTA The Indigo crop of the season is very favourably reported upon, aad the good accounts received of the appearance of the plant have induced some parties to estimate the prob a ble quantity at 110,000 maunds, while others think it will fall short of that considerably. UNITED STATES We have received New York papers to the 10th ult., in clusive, by the London packet-ship Toronto, Captain Griswold. They are three days later than those brought by the Independence. The decision of the court-martial in the case of Comman der Mackenzie had been published. It was as follows . " The court do, therefore, honourably acquit Commander S. Mackenzie of all the charges and specifications preferred against him by the Secretary of the Navy." Some excitement had been caused, in the monetary circles of New York and Philadelphia, by the sudden and mysteri ous disappearance of Mr. Jacob Shipman, the agent for the money brokers of the two cities between which he was in the habit of travelling with very large sunis of money. On Tuesday, the 4th ult., he left New York, and on Wednesday returned in the train as far as Trenton, with funds estimated at 15,000 dollars. At Trenton the conductors missed him, and felt uneasy, but supposing that he had got off the car for sorne purpose and was detained, they said nothing about it. The letters which were in his possession came on from Phil adelphia through the mail, endorsed by the clerk to the effect that the postage had not been paid. It is stated, however, that some deficiency may be expected, f rom the f ac t th a t, like Nicoll, of the Life and Trust, he speculates in lottery tickets, and, however honest the individual may be, those speculations are sufficiently seductive to involve property intrusted to them, as well as their own." The exchange on England was dull at 105 i to 106. On Paris it was sf. 41k. . . _ The cotton market remained without alteration THE COTTON CROP. — The following letter respecting the prospects of the next cotton crop is from a New York paper. " The prospects of the next crop are now, indispu tably, most unpromising, and the plant at least six weeks later than that of last season. If the weather that we have prevails as extensively in the cotton region as I have under stood it does, the coining crop will be reduced, I should think, 1,000,000 bales from the figures of last crop. We had ice here night before last, an occurrence heretofore unknown in this place. Everything in the ground (planted) is killed and last year, at this time, the cotton plant was three inches alloAe ground. At Columbus, I hear, it snowed and froze all day. The corn crop, now of prime necessity lo the plan ters, must be planted overagain. In the meanwhile, the rain pours down four days out of five, accompanied by such lightening as can only be ' got up' here. In fact, with the prospects, the comet, and .the _present strong promise for a flood, I am getting to be a confirmed Milerite." THE BRAZILS FALMOUTH, MAY 6, Early this morning her Majesty's packet Penguin arrived from Rio de Janeiro, with the Brazilian and Buenos Ayrean mails, having sailed therefrom on the 23d of March. She brings 15 passengers, and on freight about £20,000 in gold, silver, &c. By her we h ave rece i ve d a confirmation of th e unsuccessful result o f M r. Elli s ' s special mission to the Court of Brazil, with a view of effecting a treaty netween that Empire and Great Britain, his proposals having been rejected, and his final audience for formally taking leave be ing fixed for the 25th of March, soon after which it was ex pected he would embark in her Majesty's ship Malabar, for England. The issue of this negociation (if so it may be de signated) had naturally caused much dissatisfaction among the English merchants and those connected with British trade at Rio ; and a long and able article appears in the Rio Mercantile Journal of the ISth of March, in reply to, and refutation of, certain statements contained in a letter published in the Journal di Comercio of the 15th, defending the policy of the Brazilian Government in rejecting the pro posals of Mr. Ellis. - The following are one or two extracts from the article re ferred to : " Does Um Deputado Ministerial attach no importance to our observations as regards the annual importation into Great Britain o f Brazil cotton and hides at a nominal duty ? He surely does not represent any of the provinces where cotton is the staple production, for if he did this important item would at the least have had a passing observation. Have these provinces no fitting representative in the Cham bers, or if they have, do these consider what may be the con sequence if the articles in question are shut out from the British markets ? Their annual exportation to Great Britain exceeds £500,000 sterling, but the point in favour of Brazil n that a m a t e rial reduction has within ' seems totally lost si g h o f by Urn Deputado Ministerial. And again, the w r it er f urther adds— " Notwithstanding late years been mad e i n the duty upon co ffe e , the primary article of export fro m Brazil, the duty is offered to be reduced still further 25 per cent. Imports from Great Britain and her dependencies, which h ave hitherto paid fl per cent., shall in future pay 25 per cent., upon about seven-tenths of the whole, and an unlimited rate of duty upon the remainder. " Further, the relinquishment on the part of Great Britain of the remainder of the term of the existent treaty. " These are the pecuniary considerations ceded to Brazil by Great Britian, with the object of obtaining a treaty which shall afford some sort of protection to British subjects, in a country accursed by civil war, and enfeebled by the repeated thapaps 04 AtiotioL:trao o —i;b 4 w 4 itre 0144.1;144a equally to weaken the Covernwent and to impetlo the ad, vancement of the empire." The latest quotation of exchange at Rio was 2.14; it had, since the departure of the last packet, been as high as 27:1; but, on attaining that rate, suddenly began to decline. Cof-- fee had, in consequence, risen in price. Au arrival, last evening, in a Daniih schooner, called the Charlotte, direct from Buenos Ayres, whence she sailed on the 11th of March, has furnished us with the following later information to the foregoing, extracted from a Buenos Ay rear paper (the British Packet) of the 4th of that month : No packets from Monte Video having arrived during the week, our advices from that place do not come up to a very late date. " It is stated that Rivera, in his flight towards Cerro Largo, was overtaken on the 16th of February by General Ignacio Oribe on the sources of the Santa Lucia Chica, where he was attacked and routed, losing 200 men (killed) and 300 prisoners, as also his carts and baggage ; and at the date of the last intelligence he was reported to be hemmed in with his remaining followers in the Rincon de la Florida whence it was considered hardly possible that be could escape. ' ." On the 23rd President Oribe, in person, made a recon noissance as far as the Cordon, during which operation half a battalion of Basque troops came over to him from the town. " The head-quarters of the Confederate Army were, on the 27 ult., at the Saladio of Chopitea, about two miles from the fortifications General Angel Nunez had landed, and was in command of the besieging line. The lady and family of that officer arrived yesterday in this city from off Monte Video. " As the term of Rivera's four years' usurpation expired on the Ist inst., and he was understood to have signified his intention of retiring from the Presidency, modestly content ing himself with the command of the armed force, the form of an election was to have been gone through on Wednesday last, when it was expected that his vice-regent in Monte Video would be dignified with the precarious title of Presi dent." A French paper, quo ti ng a l etter f rom B ourg, says : " The great object of conversation here is an eagle which a sportsman has just killed, as astonishing as the roc of the ' Arabian Nights' Entertainments.' In its stomach were found several diamonds and other jewels, small in size, but of very fine water." A deplorable accident has just occurred in Berlin. A young lady, the daughter of one of the officers of the staff, was wiping her face with a towel, when she suddenly uttered a piercing scream, and the blood was seen to flow in abun dance. By chance a needle had been left in the towel, which entered her eye so deeply as to occasion the loss of sight. ATTEMPT TO ASSASSINATE THE VICEROY OF Lost- BARDY.—IIis Imperial Highness the Archduke Viceroy was returning on foot, at about seven o'clock, from his ordinary promenade, accompanied by one of his chamberlains, when, on reaching the Place del Duomo, and at about fifty steps from his residence, his Imperial Highness was accosted by an individual of a certain age. The man held a petition in his hand, and whilst he presented it on his knees to the au gust Prince, he abruptly struck him in the right side with a small piece of iron, which had neither a sharp point nor an edge, and, therefore, produced but a slight bruize. Being immediately arrested, the man was forthwith recognised to be a street-porter, of the name of Ichovanni Sinelli, already repeatedly brought to justice for having made attempts on the life of a person of high rank, and struck one of his agents, because he alleged, in his monomania, that he was his cre ditor to an enormous amount. In the last twelve years this individual has been several times sent to the Lunatic Hos pital, whence he has been discharged, whenever the physicians have declared that his mental derangement had ceased. Being restored to liberty, he was continually troubling the authorities and his Imperial and Royal Highness with extra vagant demands relative to his pretended claim. Yesterday evening, again, he confessed having attacked the august Prince because he had not done him justice. The unfortu nate man had beforehand written dow❑ the plan of his atro cious design. In that note, which was found about him, and addressed to the President of the Criminal Court, the fol lowing were found among other strange ones :—" I warn you of the fatal mission which Almighty God, our Creator, has given me. He orders me to sacrifice the Most Serene Prince." His Imperial Highness, who was not at all wounded, re-entered his residence quietly and in the best humour. POSTAGE BETWEEN ENGLAND AND FRANCE Monday's Monileur publishes the postage convention be tween France and England, signed April 3, 1843. The first titre, or chapter, establishes towns of the two countries from which letters for one another are to he des patched. The French towns are—Paris, Calais, Boulogne, Dieppe, Havre, Cherbourg, Granville, St. NI alo, in the Chan nel. The English towns are—London, Dover, Brighton, Southampton, Jersey, and Guernsey. For the Mediterranean, the French Post bureaux of transmission are—Paris, Mar seilles, the offices at Alexandtia. Smyrna, the Dardanelles, and Constantinople. Ths English are, Alexandria, Gibral tar, and Malta. The principal transmission of letters between the countries takes place between Dover and Calais, six days a week ; the French Government will send on the seventh day, weather permitting. _ By the eighth article, the post-boats will continue their services without interruption, even in time of war, until one of the Governments shall have signified its wish that the ser vice should cease. In ports where regular Government steamers do not exist, private vessels and steamers may be employed to carry bags. For this purpose a post-box shall be put up on board the packet for the reception of letters. There is nothing new in the regulation of the Levant cor respondence, which continues to be transmitted three times a month. Letters may be franked or not ; and letters charges, or par ticularly recommended, may be sent in both countries. The English Post-office is to pay to the French two francs for every 30 grammes of letters not franked ; and in the same case the French Post-office will pay the English ls. an ounce. Letters from France to England, franked, will pay in France by the amount levied on French letters by the law of 1827. The letters from Paris, however, will pay but the tariff of Boulogne. Letters franked from England to France wiil pay sd. per single letter, weighing half an ounce. (This, in addition to the tariff of Boulogne mentioned above, will make 10d. postage between England and Pat - is.) There are especial charges for letters exchanged with St. Male, Cherbourg, and Granville. Journals of either country are to be delivered at the port of the country to which they are addressed exempt from duty. Pamphlets may be sent by post from one country to another paying in France as usual ; in England, ld for Iwo ounces ; 6d, from two to three ounces ; Bd. from three to four ounces ; and 2d. per ounce more up to 16 ounces, beyond which weight the English Post-office will not receive them. The following is article 86, which relates to a point so much disputed, and which has involved English journals in some expense:— "Art. BG.—ln order to insure reciprocally the integrity of the produce of the correspondence of both countries, the Fi each and English Governments will prevent by every means in their power the transmission of correspordence by other channels than the post. Nevertheless it is and _Tstood, that couriers sent by commercial houses or others, ii carry acci dentally a single letter, or one or more newspapers, may freely traverse the respective territories of both states, these couriers presenting the letter or the gazettes at the first bureau of post, where the postage will be levied in the usual manner." THE COMET. The following letter, dated Berlin, March 9th, 1843, has been received by a gentleman in this town from Lieut. Metre Petrie, R.N. : " An extraordinary exhibition of nature has been given us here, in the shape of a comet; but of such an immense di mension, as to cause the utmost wonder even in the most learned in these matters, and the geratest consternation in the ignorant,—floods to overflow the earth, war, pestilence, and fame, have all been predicted in consequence of this most beautiful stranger's appearance. I first observed it on the evening of the 2nd of this month, and at this date, no one in this province has dared to write a word in the papers upon the subject, so deficient are the Brazilians in astronomical studies. At the hour of 7on the 2nd instant, 1 saw for the first time a faint stream of light shooting up into the sky from the western horizon; but on the following evening we had a beautiful figure of a luminous pillar, standing, as it were, on a dark base of clouds, and reaching nearly half-way to our zenith,—it was like a pillar of polished silver, with the most brilliant moon-booms plying upon it, the reflection upon the calm water, added greatly to its beauty ; altogether, it is an extraordinary phenomenon, and perhaps never was the like seen by the inhabitants of this earth since they were able to communicate and hand down accounts of such things to pos terity. I mean, with regard to its extreme splendour and di mensions. On the evening of the 7th I found the comet setting about in the horizon at the hour of eight, and thirty-nine mi nutes, and this evening it was even more splendid ; its mag nificence was beyond conception ; it measured from the nucleus, or head of the comet, to the end of the tail, or growth, 40 30, and fully double the diameter of the moon. It seemed to be very dense to about 38, then more attenuated, the nucleus or head was fully defined, and appeared about a star of the first maguitude ; the sides of the tail were so well defined that it had all the appearance of a highly polished pillar ; the tail must be nearly two hundred millions of miles in length, and thirty-seven millions of miles in breadth; and must be flying at the rate of upwards of one million of miles in an hour. I believe it must have come much nearer the sun than any comet we have an account of. The tail did not dilate, nor contract, but appeared to bend towards the south —the comet set bearing W. by S., S., and the moon's angle with it was about 53. I have seen several comets, but this more than rivals all put together. I remember the one of 1811, which was considered a large one ; and believe the greatest length of its tail was 23i, and this is 40 29. IMPORT OF FOREIGN CATTLE.—Last week, the Soren Winkel, from Aalborg, brought 49 oxen and two cows to Hull. At Southampton, 40 oxen have been received from Spain. LORD ROSSE'S TELESCOPE.—We are happy . to announce, that " the great telescope," under the immediate superin tendence of his lordship, is progressing towards completion. A large number of artizans and labourers are employed in erecting this truly wonderful instrument.—Leinster Express. The Glasgow Courier states, that a young man named Briton, is in custody, on the charge of embezzling, to a large amount, the funds of his employers, the Glasgow and Ayr Railway Company. The amount of sheep, lamb, and Alpaca wool imported into the United Kingdom in the year 1812, that paid a dutg of one penny and one halfpenny per lb, was 45,881,639 lbs. re-exported, 4,085,190 lbs. Total consumption, 44,022,141 lbs. The quantity imported, the produce of the British pos sessions in 1842, was 18,467,212 lbs; re-exported, 106,473 lbs. INFANTICIDE.—A very pretty and genteel young woman about 22 years of age, has been taken before the magistrate at the Queen-square Police-office, London, and committed for trial, on her own confession, on the charge of having at two different periods given birth to an illegitimate child, and murdered the infants by strangulation, and then destroyed their bodies by fire. RAILWAY ACCIDENT ON THE LIEGE LINE. -Our Dover correspondent sends us the following under yesterday's date : " We have learned, from a Spanish gentleman, who arrived here last night, per the Widgeon, from Ostend, that a fearful accident had occurred on the previous day (Wednesday) on the Liege Railway, by which six persons had lost their lives, and fourteen had been seriously wounded. The accident, as we understood our Spanish informant, arose from one of the carriages taking fire.—Globe. CORN -LADEN Sulrs.--A retr,rn of the number of ships laden with foreign corn, entered inwards at the ports of the United Kingdom, between January 5, 1842 and 1843, shows the following results :—Of British ships there were 2,346 entered, containing 1,661,2 9 4 quarters of wheat, 17,347 quarters of barley, 103,571 quarters of oats, 136,028 quarters of beans and peas, 528,515 cwt. of flour, 10,334 quarters of Indian corn, 3,780 quarters of rye, and 5,466 cwt. of oatmeal. The number of foreign ships entered were 1,857, containing 999,792 quarters of wheat, 50,857 quarters of barley, 193,856 cwt. of flour, 1,312 quarters of Indian corn, 6,237 quarters of rye, and 71 cwt. of flour. Of 1,857 foreign ships, 48 were from Russia, 39 from S we d en , 308 f rom D enmark, 53 1 f rom Prussia, 113 from Geimany, 89 from Holland, 3 from Bel glum, 175 from France, 27 from Spain, 71 from Italy, 42 from Austria, 1 from Greece, 1 from Egypt, and 128 from the United States of America. Vatitaiittiiihry pvootbinfrii, HOUSE OF LORDS.—FiunAy The Registration of Voters Biil went through committee, Lord CAMPBELL postponing his amendments until the bringing up of the report. Lord BEAUMONT brought the criestion of Servia under the consideration of the house, contending, at great length, that the recent interference of Russia was an infringement of the integrity of the Ottoman empire, wholly unjustifiable upon any other grmind than that the Sublime Porte was weak, Austria timid, Russia encroaching, and England apathetic: although it was rumoured that France was in clined to stand with England against the despotic interfer ence of Russia. The Porte was, he contended, abandoned to its own resources against Russia, and the result was that Russi, as usual, would obtain by negotiation what never could have been obtained by force of arms. If Servia should decline to have its own choice of a sovereign over-ruled, he wished to know from Lord Aberdeen if he was prepared to allow Russia to send 50,000 men into that country to enforce obedience to its wishes under the specious pretext of pro tection—a pretext so often resorted to for the purpose of extending its territories. The noble lord concluded by moving for papers connected with the subject. The Earl of ABERDEEN said that a revolt took place last September in Servia which led to the dethronement of the reigning ruler, and this dethronement was the result of a bargain between the Turkish Pacha of Belgrade and certain parties of Servia, with whom the people of that country so little sympathised, that the prince whom the revolutionists chose would, ere long, be but too happy should he escape from those very people without any aid from the arms of Russia. It was said. when the revolution took place, that it was to be attributed to Russian intrigues, and great credit was given to that country for the crafty and successful man ner in which it carried out its objects. Now, however, that Russia condemns the revolution, it was contended that other nations were succumbing to her influence. The fact was, that Servia possessed only a qualified independence, which she owed to the support of Russia, and this independence was sought to be destroyed by the intrigues of the Pacha of Belgrade, which caused Russia to interfere for the protection of that qualified independence that Servia could not maintain without her assistance. It appeared to the Government, under all the circumstances, that the wisest course to pursue was that of following in the steps of Austria, which had the strongest interest in maintaining the integrity of the Ottoman empire. He believed a new election would take place of a Servian prince, but he bad no apprehension whatever of the alarming consequences which the noble lord appeared to fore bode. lie therefore opposed the motion of the noble lord. Lord BEAUMONT then withdrew the motion, and their lordships adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS.-FRIDAY Mr. L. Fox said, in reply to a question from Mr. W. S• o'l3ittEs, that as Mr. O'Connell had declared he would not attend the discussion of the motion of which he had given notice with a view to put a stop to the agitation for a repeal of the union, ;he would not bring it on in his absence, but would inform him what he intended to do in a letter addressed to him publicly. Sir R. PEEL said that no official communications had taken place between this country and France respecting the re ported intention of the King of the F renc i i to compel a mar riage between the Queen of Spain and a Bourbon prin ce . It was, however, the opinion of the British Government that Spain, as an independent state, was the exclusive judge of any alliances which it might think proper to form. Sir R. PEEL stated the progress which had been made to remedy the evils arising from the population progressing in various towns in a greater ratio than the means of providing them with religious instruction. This evil being admitted, the next question was as to the means of applying a remedy, and for these it was the present intention of the government that ecclesiastical revenues should be applied to the purpose, but if these should hereafter prove to be insufficient it would become his duty to apply to Parliament for assistance. The right hon. baronet adverted to the advantages which had re sulted from the ecclesiastical commission appointed in 1834, and stated that in consequence of the reduction of the num ber of cathedral establishments a revenue of £25,000 was now at their disposal applicable to the augmentation of small livings. This sum would in future years be largely increased from the same source. He proposed to borrow £600,000 from the capital stock of £1,200,000 standing in the names of the governors of the Queen Anne's Bounty, to be secured on the revenues accruing hereafter to the ecclesiastical com missioners. He proposed that the sum borrowed should be applied to the increase of spiritual instruction to the extent of X 30,000 per annum, not for the building of churches, but for the endowment of ministers in aid of local subscriptions. If a minister were endowed in a destitute district he had no doubt but that the erection of a church by subscription would soon follow as a result of his labours. He believed it to be of importance thot they should immediately proceed to action, and as he asked for no public money he hoped the house would unanimously agree to the proposed plan. The right hon. baronet concluded by moving a resolution on which to found a motion for leave to bring in a bill to carry out the scheme he proposed. Sir R. INGLIS could not give his approbation to the plan, although be would not embarrass the government by any observations which could have the effect of strengthening the hands of those from whom the church had nothing to expect. He confidently looked forward to the time when the house would be asked for a grant of public money in furtherance of the religious instruction of the people. It was to the enlargement of the church establishment that the country looked for the means of improving its social condi tion, and it was to be remembered that the greatest evils of the late insurrection prevailed in districts insufficiently pro vided with pastoral care. H e s i ncerely hoped the present plan would prove beneficial, though it by no means came up to his expectations. Lord J. Russr.;r, was not prepared, so far as be under stood the plan, to bestow upon it his unqualified admiration, although it certainly contained the elements of utility. It was not, however, any defect, according to his views, that the plan required no grant of public money in its support. Mr. Pm) mPTitE maintained the necessity of upholding the preaching of the pure doctrine in the church. Mr. BORTHWICK complained of the practice of making shows of our churches, and charging twopence for admission to them, instead of throwing them open to all. Lord SANDON supported the plan as likely to prove bene ficial to the temporal as well as spiritual welfare of the peo ple. Mr. CAMPBELL, while he approved of the plan, condemn ed the doctrines of Puseyism, and said lie would not support any motion calculated to promote the doctrines of a sect opposed to the principles of the reformation. S r R. PEEL replied, and said that the difference of opinion expressed in the course of the debate upon the propriety of requiring a parliamentary grant fully justified him in refrain ing from adopting that course. He believed the annual sum .' l O,OOO, which he proposed, would be found adequate, with Ii aid of voluntary subscriptions, to promote the real wel fa a of the church more effectually than if he had required a la •ge grant of public money. The resolution was then agreed to. Lord ELIOT then moved the second reading of the Irish Poor Law Bill, and stated the various alterations contem plated by its enactment. Mr. FRENCH said that the first poor law had been founded upon the inaccurate representations made by Mr. Nicholls. The expense originally calculated upon had been greatly ex ceeded, and yet but little benefit had resulted to the poor. The dissatisfaction amongst all classes was so great, that its repeal was inevitable, for it could never be rendered suitable to the people of Ireland. He concluded by moving that the bill should be read a second time that day six months. Mr. S. CRAWFORD seconded the motion. Mr. SMITH (Attorney_General for Ireland) contended that the rating to the poor -rate in many parts of Ireland was only the fraction of a penny, while in others it did not exceed two pence —a burden which' it was absurd to stigmatise as an in sult to Ireland. Mr. FRENCH said he would not press his amendment to a division, and the bill was accordingly read a second time without a division. The other orders of the day were then disposed of, and the house adjourned. STATE OF TRADE. MANCHESTER.—AIthough prices remain very firm for all widths and qualities of printing cloth, we fear that rather less has been done this week than last. The yarn market is also less animated, and some numbers are heavy of sale. It is gratifying, however, to know that both manufacturers and spinners are much better off than they were last year (say about July,) for then printing cloth was up on an average 3d. to 6d. lo wer i n pr i ce, and cotton I l d. per lb. higher; so, we think, they have a fair margin to allow them to improve the wages of their hands, which we are gratified to learn, some humane masters are doing. One thing is certain, that the present state of trade is giving more employment every day to the workpeople, and provisions being low, the people are better off than they were, although still too badly paid. 27-inch 66's 4s. 6d. to 4s.

TUESDAY MORNING, MAY 9, 1843. We were prepared to see the government measure' announced by Sir Robert Peel, fall short of that wh ich we have been in the habit of advocating as a m easure for " Church Extension." We were prepare& accord' ing to the d ec l arat i on o f t h e r i g h t honourable baronet' wade a few weeks ago, to find that the aid of the state would be confined strictly to the endowment of ad' e ro tional ministers i n popu l ar di str i cts , l e aving the p viding of churches to the voluntary efforts of chu rch ; men.

An explanation of the plan of Sir Robert Peel will best illustrate this position. The Ecclesiastical Cow' mission, it w ill b e rernem b ere d , ' was es t a blished wit power, out of the surplus revenues of the Church —V the suppre ss i on o f canonr i es, pre b en d a l stalls, thesioec or quasi sin ecure rector i es, & c. )— to provide for o adequate p a y ment o f a certa i n ill -remun erated 10 1 % of the parochial clergy, Against the propriety of sti c ._ a work th ere can b e f ew to except ; and up to t il l ; time it will be f oun d t h at cons id era ble progre ss h . . s , been made i n th e remova l o f t h e g l ar ing inadeq uacy of the provision for the maintenance of the clergy' in many districts of the country.
