FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. CHINA, INDIA, AND EGYPT. (From the Times of Wednesday. We have received by extraordinary express, in anticipation of the overland mail, advices from Bombay, of the Ist of October, from Singapore of the 13th of August, and from China of the 3rd of July. The lateness of the hour at which our express arrived, un fortunately preYents us inserting more than a portion of the very important intelligence we have received. The accounts from China state, that the first vessel of the expedition arrived there on the 9th of June, and the greatest part of the remainder on the 21st. The next day Sir J. J. Gordon Bremer issued a notice declaring the river and har bour of Canton in a state of blockade after the 28th. Capt. Elliott had kept several ships at the mouth of the river, to carry the blockade into effect, and ordered the rest to proceed to the north and seize on the island of Chusan, which is situate near the mouth of the great river Yang Tsen. Admiral Elliott arrived off Macao on the 28th of June, and having taken Captain Elliott on board, followed the ex pedition. The latter had issued proclamations to the people along the coast, promising that their persons and property should be respected ; and Governor Lin had, on his side, offered rewards for the capture and destruction of the British The Chinese had made another unsuccessful attempt to burn the fleet by means of fire-rafts. The intelligence received from Affghanistan was of an un satisfactory nature. The overtures made by Dost Mohamed to Schab Soodjnh turned out to be mere pretences to cover his approach to tl.e frontiers, and rumours had got afloat that this chief had actually succeeded in occasioning extensive risings in Aff ghanistan, ;aid that Captain Connolly had been taken pri soner, and his party cut to pieces by the insurgents. This report, however, was deemed to require confirmation. The taking of Khelat, the capital of Beloochistan, by the son of Mehrab Khan, was confirmed. The city was de livered into his hands by the chief appointed by the British political agent, and the latter, and a small body of troops left under his orders, were made prisoners. The revolters had likewise attacked the town and fort of Kahun, but had been' repulsed by the garrison under the command of Capt. Brown. Major Clibborn marched from Sukkur on the 12th August, for the purpose of relieving the besieged, but being met on the 31st of August in the defile of Poolajee by a large body of Murrees and Belooehes, who had cut up the road, and strongly intrenched themselves in the mountains, he was un able to force the passage. The British detachment was ac cordingly obliged to retreat, with the loss of 4 officers and 230 Sepoys killed, and that of the convoy under its escort. On receipt of this disastrous intelligence the Bombay go vernment immediately forwarded reinforcements to Belooch istan, and it was expected that 10,000 men would shortly be in readiness to take the field against the insurgents. No fears were entertained of an attack from the Nepau lese ; the British government had nevertheless deemed it prudent to take the necessary measures for the protection of our dominions on that side. The fortifications of Herat were advancing rapidly, but as treachery was apprehended from Yar Mahomed, it was thought that a British force would be marched to garrison the city. PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE. BOMBAY, SEPT. 30.—There is now much excitement in this city, and great eagerness for intelligence from Egypt, from Beloeehistan, from Affghanistan, and from China. The news from Egypt is of the highest interest, as there are fears that a war may be caused by Mehemet Ali, and that all communications through Egypt with Europe may be stopped. This interest is increased by the fact that there are French ships of war moving about the entrance of the Red Sea, with the intention, it is said, of taking possession of the Abyssinian port of Zehla. There was lately a French ship of war, with the guns in hold, in the port of Aden, and holding communication with the Arabs on the Asiatic and African shores. Great suspicion exists of their proceedings. It has not been lessened by the conduct of the Dordogne, Captain Guillian, which ship ar rived here on the 2d instant from Muscat. After a stay of 20 days Captain Guillian suddenly ordered all his guns to be loaded, as if he dreaded some obstacles in going out of the harbour, and without firing a salute, set sail, as it is said, for the Red Sea. So sudden was his departure, that he left a quantity of flour in the hands of a baker. It is believed, that as there are several French ships expected on the Abyssinian coast, this captain has gone as quickly as possible to take possession of Zehla, a port which is described as commanding fully the entrance into the Red Sea. Massuah is also spoken of as being a place of which the French wish to obtain pos session. There is no British ship of war on the whole coast of India! The steamer Bercnice, which takes this mail, has been armed for the occasion. My last letter stated the capture of Khelat, the capital of Beloochistan, by the son, or rather the widow, of Mehrab Khan, killed there last year. The former, in whose name the revolt has been carried on, is but a boy of twelve years. The chief whom the British political agent had last year placed on the musnud or throne made terms for himself, and sur rendered the town. Lieutenant Loveday, the British agent, who commanded a small furce there, was taken prisoner, and has been removed to Moostung. The town and fort of Kahun, the capital of one of the wildest of the Beloochee tribes, has been besieged by the Murrees ; but Captain Browne, who commanded there, had defended it with great gallantry. Major Clifford, of the Bombay Grenadiers, set out on the 12th of August from Sukkar, in order to relieve Kahun. His detachment con sisted of 600 Sepoys, 250 Poonah horse, and 2 guns, having a train of 1000 camels, besides bullocks laden with provisions, ammunition, &c. lie passed with great difficulty through the defiles of the mountains called the pass of Poolajee. On the 31st ult., on entering a defile where two men could with difficulty walk abreast, the road was found to be cut up ; two companies were sent forward to clear the pass, over which the Murrees and other Beloochees appeared in numbers and kept up a brisk fire. The officers leading the companies were killed, and the sepoys fell back on the main body. The Be loochees followed, and for some time a smart conflict was carried on man to man. The guns fired some rounds of grape, which did great execution, but eventually they were spiked, and the British detachment retreated, leaving the provisions, ammunition, and camels, in the hands of the enemy, with four officers and two hundred and fifty men killed. The Beloochees are said to have lost 200 men, but have gained a great booty! The names of the officers killed are—Captain Raitt and Lieutenant Franklin, of the Ist, and Lieutenant R. R. Moore and Ensign Williams, of the 2d Grenadiers. Cap tain Heighington, of the former regiment, has died of fatigue. Lieutenant Lock, of the cavalry, is wounded, but is expected to recover. This disaster has produced a gloom, and great fears for the safety of Kahan, notwithstanding the great gal lantry of Captain Browne, who it is said has seized 40 camels laden with corn, which the Beloochees were taking by the fort. The Bombay government is making every exertion to send reinforcements to Beloochistan, and the steamers have been busy during the whole of this week in taking troops to Hurrachee. It is expected there will be soon 10;000 men on the Indus ready to commence operations against the moun taineers. It is, however, apprehended that the campaign may be prolonged by other revolts, and that the conquest of the savage robbers and wholesale plunderers of these moun tainous districts will never be worth the blood and treasure it will cost. This disastrous rencontre with the Murrees will it is feared contribute to sharpen the hatred of the Afghans towards Schah Soojah, and bring on revolts in other places near the Indus. The activity and energy of the British government must, therefore, be very great in making effective arrange ments to the northward. The fortifications of Herat have been advanced considerably, but it is said that as Yar Ma homed is disposed to act perfidiously, and to sell it to the Persians, a British force will be sent thither to insure its safety. The best policy of the British government would seem now to be, as the Indian army must be increased, to make levies among, the Affghans and Beloochees, who are willing soldiers, and the bravest races in India. They would serve to conquer China. The rumours of an immediate war with the Nepaulese have died away. The Supreme Government is, however, resolved to be prepared in case the Emperor of China should order his vassals of Nepaul to invade the British territory, and va rious corps have received orders to hold themselves in readi ness for marching towards those frontiers. The last news from China is of the 3d of July. The first vessel of the expedition arrived there on the 9th of June, and the greater part of it on the 21st. On the 22d Sir J. J. Gordon Bremer issued a notice that a blockade of all the entrances of the river, and of the port of Canton, would commence on the 28th. A third attempt was made by fire-rafts to burn the fleet, but the attempt was ineffectual. Parcels of tea were poisoned, in order to be sold to the sailors, but they were taken by prirates, who sold them to the Chinese on shore, and many died from drinking that beverage. Captain Elliot has issued several notifications of great importance. Having left several vessels to carry on an effective blockade, the rest of the expedition set sail for the northward, in order to take possession of the island of Chu san, not far from the mouth of the great river Yang-Tsen, on which the southern capital of China (Nankin) is situate. On the 28th Admiral Elliott arrived, and having commu nicated with the Portuguese governor of Macao, with whom friendly arrangements continue, took Captain Elliott on board, and proceeded to join the expedition. Captain Elliott has given notice to the Chinese inhabitants of the sea coast that their persons and property will be respected, and that the conduct of Lin shall be made known to the emperor. The Chinese government has issued a proclamation, offering rewards for the capture and destruction of the British ships of war, and of each British subject. In Bombay the preparations continue for the campaign in Besoochistan. The governor, Sir J. R. Carnac, Bart., is coming from Poonah to Khandallah, a short distance front this city. In order to produce no delay by his absence, Major-General Sir T. Willshire, Bart., goes to Europe by this steamer. The monsoon has been favourable, and the • fall of rain in most districts is considered to secure an abun dant harvest. Miss Emma Roberts died at Poonali on the 17th instant unexpectedly. OCT. I.—The departure of the steamer was postponed for 21 hours in consequence of the non-arrival of the last over land mails and the government express from Calcutta, but, as they have come in, the steamer will positively start this morning. The latest nows from Singapore is to the 13th of August ; it contains nothing remarkable. I send you the Free Press of that date. The steamer Hugh Lindsay arrived this morning from Kurachee. The rumour of an approaching revolt in Aff ghanistan had been current, but 1 know not on what authority. The government bills on the supreme court of Calcutta continue to sell at a premium. CHINA.

The above list of arrivals in the Chinese waters has refer ence e the most important event that has ever been our fortitite to record in the pages of the Canton Register—the presence of an armed British force in the Chinese empire, to enforce reparation for injuries done to British subjects, and the restitution of spoliated British property. The first arrival of this armament was her Majesty's ship Alligator, on the 28th, Captain Kuper, between 2 and 3 o'clock, a. in., on the 9th instant, in the Capsingmoon, at the very moment that the Chinese officers bad sent in about 18 fire-rafts, constructed of old outside fishing-boats and some cargo boats, chained together two and two, and filled with combustible matter of all descriptions, to burn the British shipping. The fleet did not suffer any damage from these rafts, set adrift before the wind and tide, and they were speedily towed on shore by the boats of the squadron. Thus at the very instant of his arrival, Captain Kuper found his countrymen and the Chinese engaged in hostilities. We may here repeat, that previous to this third attempt to burn the Englishtfleet, the Chinese government had sent a boat-load of poisoned tea, packed in small parcels, to be sold to the sailors this nefarious attempt, it is reported, was thus discovered. The boat was captured by pirates, who sold her cargo to their fellow-countrymen. Many deaths followed the use of the poisoned tea, so many, indeed, that it is said the attention of the district magistrates was drawn to the circumstances. The Allegator brought the overland mail of the 4th of March, and was followed by the Hon. East India Company's armed steamer Madagascar, Captain Dicey, which vessels arrived on the 16th inst. On the 15th and 20th her Ma jesty's ship Alligator and the Hon. East India Company's steamer Madagascar respectively anchored in the roads, and saluted the city of Macao with 19 guns, which on both occa sions was immediately returned by the Franciscan Fort. Her Majesty's ship of the line, Wellesley, bearing the broad pennant of Commodore Sir James John Gordon Bremer, Knight, C. 8., K.C.H., Commander-in-Chief on the India station, arrived last Sunday, the 12th inst., with her Majesty's ships Cruiser, Algerine, Rattlesnake (troop ship), the East India Company's armed steamers the Queen and Atalanta, and 18 sail of transports in company, having on board her Majesty's 49th, 26th (Cameronians), 18th (Royal Irish), the Sepoy volunteers from Calcutta, and a de tachment of sappers and miners from Madras. We are happy to report that the troops have arrived in the highest condition of health and spirits, under the command of Col. Burrell. On Monday evening two of the squadron, with some of the transports, proceeded to the northward; and this morn ing her Britannic Majesty's ship Wellesley, with the rest of the squadron, except those hereafter mentioned, stood to the southward to join the transports said to be outside, after which junction the whole squadron and transports will pro ceed to the northward. Her Majesty's ships Druid, Volage, Hyacinth, Larne, and the Hon. Company's armed steamer Madagascar, remain to enforce the blockade of the river and port of Canton by all its entrances, which blockade is to be established under the strictest form on Sunday next, the 28th instant. Two transports, with troops, are also left under the com mand of the senor officer, probably with a view of protect ing this settlement, or to ulterior operations in this province on the arrival of Adml. Elliott.—Canton Register, June 25. The point of destination to the northward we know not ; we have not authority on which we can raise even a surmise; the movement may have been made merely for the purpose of gaining a higher latitude, and placing the fleet beyond the range of typhoons ; but we fervently hope the object of the expedition is to take possession of Tinghae district,ln the province of Chekeang—in other words, of the island of Chu san ; and, with the overpowering force that has already sail ed, we think this object could be attained without spilling a drop of blood. This island bears nearly the same relation to the province of Chekeang, as the Isle of Wight does to Hampshire. In possession of this fair, fertile, and populous spot as head-quarters, and the military possession of this district would be a severe blow to the Imperial Government, for part of the celestial territory would then be in the hands of strangers ; thence a mission might be sent to the Pei-ho, or north river, which is navigable for large boats up to the city of Tungchowfoo, 12 miles east by south from Pekin. We have little doubt that should a mission be sent, as a po litic and friendly preliminary proceeding becoming a civilised nation and the high standing of England, it will fail. No answer will be given, much less positive and satisfactory answers. It will be ordered away, her Majesty's ships will be ordered to leave the Chinese waters, and the British troops to evacuate Tinghde •, then the imperial dragon may deign to give an answer—but not till then. In the then emergency it rests with the Commanders-in-chief to adopt such measures as to compass the objects of the expedition— which are to obtain reparation for the insults and injuries offered to her Majesty's superintendent and her Majesty's subjects by the Chinese Government; and, in the second place, they were to obtain for the merchants trading with China an indemnification for the loss of their property, in curred by threats of violence offered by persons under the direction of the Chinese Government ; and, in the last place, they were to obtain a certain security that persons and pro perty in future trading with China shall be protected from insult or injury, and that their trade and commerce be main tained upon a proper footing. ATTEMPT TO BURN THE BRITISH FLEET AT CAPSINGMOON. The delay in the issue of the Register gives us the oppor tunity of publishing the following account of another abortive attempt to burn the British shipping at Capsingmoon, made early on Tuesday morning. The first alarm was given about 2 a.m. on Tuesday. A noise was heard from amongst the small Chinese boats in shore. It appeared, on subsequent inquiry, that some man darin boats had got in amongst them, for the purpose of making captures. They attacked the cutter Devil, and wounded the Lascars on board. Immediately after distant lights appeared in the direction of the passage of the Cap singmoon, called the Flood Gates ; and the commanding offi cer of the Danish King fired a gun and hoisted the signal previously ordered by the senior officer of her Majesty's ships for fire rafts ; and instantly almost the fire burst forth from at least 15 tire boats. The appearance was very beautiful. The wind and tide were then favourable for their course. As they approached they blew up like some beautiful works, what in English pyrotechnical science would be called a flower pot. The beauties of the sight, however, did not dis sipate the alarm felt by those on board the ships, who were also fearful there might be other crafty schemes in progress, and that they might be attacked from other quarters ; con sequently most of the ships slipped their cables, and moved out of danger, each more anxious than his neighbour to get into the rear. The scene and danger caused great excite ment ; the night was very dark, the wind slackened, and so many vessels being under weigh at once in a small space, caused great confusion, and many consequently came in con tact, but we have not heard of any serious damage The boats of the squadron were actively employed towing the rafts clear of the shipping, and anchoring others. The junks were first turned adrift chained together two and two ; nine of these rafts were counted, which gives eighteen boats. But it was ascertained that some had not ignited, and some had exploded, the wrecks being seen floating about the bay the next morning. On examination, the fire rafts were found to be constructed of what had been very old fighting-boats ; what remains of them will supply the fleet with firewood for a month. They were full of dross, the remains of the combustible matter. An anecdote of the gallantry and humanity of one of the officers of the Mavis deserves recording. The mandarins had seized upon two Chinese who were in the habit of attending the shipping, and were conveying them over the hills, no doubt for punishment, probably death. The officer of the Mavis, with a party of Malay sailors, landed and pursued them ; their muskets missedifire, but they charged the Chinese, barrel in hand, beat them back right and left with the butt ends, and put them to flight, released the two prisoners, and brought them safely down to the beach. Th interest of the scene was greatly heightened by the arrival of her majesty's ship Alligator ; the light of the flaming rafts guiding her to the anchorage. This apropos arrival will rather damp the future enterprise of the subordinate Chinese naval officers. _ Our correspondent suggests that the men-of-war should be stationed at the different entrances of the Capsingmoon, instead of being all anchored together. The arrival of the Brigand at Calcutta has put us in pos session of advices from China to the 3d July. Admiral Elliot arrived in the Melville on the 28th June, and sailed again for the northward on the 30th, accompanied by Capt. Elliot, who is to act as plenipotentiary. The following is an extract from a letter dated Macao, the 3d of July : " It is now beyond a doubt that we intend to take and fortify the island of Chusan, and I expect, in little more than a month, to hear of the British flag being hoisted there.— Captain Elliott, his secretary, and three interpreters have gone up. I believe the blockading of the rivers has caused a great sensation in Canton. All the Americans are prepa ring to leave. I do not think that the fleet will interfere in any way with the opium vessels. Indeed, it is likely that their operations may facilitate that trade, as the men of war junks will be afraid to come out." is OFF MACAO, June 23.—We arrived here yesterday; Wellesley, Cruiser, Algerines and transports with 26th Queen's Regiment, head-quarters and part of the 18th Regt. Irish (the remainder being at Singapore may be expected in a few days), the Native Volunteers, and Madras Artillery. It is expected the following will leave to-morrow for Chusan,— Wellesley, Conway, Volage, Larne, Cruiser, Alligator, Alge rine, her Majesty s schooner Hebe, and the Hon. Company's steam-vessels Queen, Atalanta, and Madagascar, transports and troops. The Enterprise steamer may be looked for in a few days from Singapore, with Mr. Maddock's, Company's agent, on board. It is stated nothing will be done at the Bogue until the arrival of Admiral Elliott and squadron from England, &c. A depot is to be formed at Chusan, probably preparatory to an attack upon Pekin. The Larne brought on the March overland men from the Enterprise, at Singa pore. The transports are kept outside and amongst the islands, not to disturb the nerves of our old friend Lin. The squadron and troops are in good health generally speaking, and most anxious for some amusement on shore. " MACAO, June 18.—Several vessels being under despatch, we will avail ourselves of the opportunity to continue our usual advices. " Business at Canton has gone on ouietly since our last, though to a limited extent, owing to the scarcity of teas, and to the languid state of the market for imports, caused by the general belief of the Chinese that there was no truth in the report of hostilities being about to take place. The late ar rival, however, of Her Majesty's ship Alligator and steamer Madagas car , with accounts of the fleet having left Singapore, will, no doubt, tend to remove this delusion ; and we think in a week more nearly all outstanding affairs at Canton will tim"eltnnupsotlituicuawl mbeattaelursseweathhasa brought to a close, though some Americans speak of still re maining there. e ud no wi c ie h u an t g h e e to m n ea o s t u ic r e e s adopted against the Chinese will be developed. It is gene rally believed that forces willnot to be go further than the Bogue forts, and that Canton will not be molested. An attempt was lately made to burn the shipping by means of about 25 junks, most of which were Captured without doing any injury. Preparations are said to be in progress for repeating an at tack of the same description. " The Heroine, Manilla, Mary Elizabeth, and William Barras are the only ships loading for England, and tonnage to considerable extent is much wanted. " Exchange with England continues at about 5 to 4 101 at 6 months' sight. " Captain Elliot has announced his being authorised to draw on the government of India, and has invited tenders, but we have not heard of any transactions. It is believed his rate will be about 218 per 100 at 30 days' sight. " P.S. June 24, 1840.—Since writing to you on the 18th instant, the first division of the fleet to act against China has arrived ; but, contrary to the gen eral ho p e and ex p ec tation , has to-day departed for the north without doing anything i n this neighbourhood. The Commander -in-Chief has intimated that the river and port of Canton will be blockaded on the 28th, to maintain which her Majesty's ships Druid, Volage, and Hyacinth, and the steamer Madagascar, are detained here. " The export of tea to England since the Ist of October last amounted to 24,126,5591 b., to which must be added about 1,500,000 lb. sent to Singapore for transhipment. "The export of silk amounts to 2,403 bales, and a good deal stored outside, waiting an opportunity for England." From this last letter will be seen the whole export of teas from China for England, and, considering our present posi tion with the Chinese, it is hardly to be expected that any further quantity of tea will be shipped for Great Britain for some time to come. Should the Emperor refuse to enter upon negociations• with Admiral Elliot, it is impossible to foresee for how long a time the trade with China may be stopped. We hear that the new Chinese man-of-war, Chesapeake, late Cambridge, has been stationed at the first bar, as like wise a number of junks laden with granite ready for sinking to stop up the passage. It has also been said, though we do not believe it, that the Chesapeake has been ordered to the Bogue to act against her Majesty's ships, should they at tempt entering. We know not what her armament may be, but with a view probably of giving her an imposing appear ance, she has been painted blood-red all over, whilst the two cutters (of 25 tons each) lately built for the imperial navy challenge respect by a coating of imperial yellow. We understand that the vessels now at Whampoa (there were on the 12th inst. only five American and seven Spaniards) will probably remove to the second bar so as not to be inconve nienced by the blocking up of the river, should this be deemed necessary, at least a petition to-that effect has, we are told, been presented to the Canton authorities. There are symptoms of the Provincial Government be ginning to be alarmed, and several emissaries have during the week arrived at Macao to pick up what news they can regarding the English preparations ; it is also said that the Hong merchants are about to visit Macao in a month or two, no doubt ordered to enter on negotiations, but we sincerely hope that access will be denied them to the ear of her Ma jesty's superintendent, or to any other of her Majesty's officers.—Bornbay Courier. INDIA. WAR WITS NEPAUL.—A report has reached the station —and one apparently well founded—that government have offered certain terms to the Nepaulese court, upon the rejec tion or acceptance of which depends the question of peace or war. As these gentlemen are, however, just now in rather a pugnacious humour, their voice will probably be for war. — Agra Ukhbar. SEPTEMBER 10.—We have from a source upon which the utmost reliance may be placed, that the Nepaulese have acceded to the terms of our government, but that govern ment has determined upon forming a►► army of demonstra tion along their frontier. It is to consist of twelve regiments of native infantry, and two companies of artillery, and will assemble at Moozuffupoor, Tirhoot, towards the end of November. ------ - This demonstration is, of course, made to bind the Ne paulese to their engagements, and should more decided pro ceedings be necessary, the army of observation will be in creased by the Queen's 21st, 31st, and 62nd regiments, and the 2nd Europeans. The orders announcing this movement will appear in a short time. The preparations of the supreme government in sending troops towards the Nepaulese frontiers, arise not from any apprehension of immediate warfare, but from the wish not to be taken unawares, in case of any hostile movements on the part of our neighbours. That little reliance can be placed on the good faith and sincerity of the court of Kat mandoo is evident from experience. It is therefore suited to a line of prudent policy, to be prepared for any dangers that may occur, in case the Emperor of China should think proper to issue his commands to his army to march into Nepaul, and to invade the British territory. Troops are everywhere through Western and North West ern India on the march for Beleechistan and Upper Scinde. 500 Poonah horse have been ordered to hold themselves in readiness. A division of Golundauze, two troops of Horse Artillery, two squadrons of • the 4th Dragoons, and the 3d Native Cavalry, have been ordered to take the field. The cavalry brigade is to be commanded by Colonel Fendall, while Colonel Valiant takes command of a brigade of infantry. It is said also that the 2d or Queen's Royals and the Ist Cavalry have been ordered from Deesa. On Monday afternoon the Hugh Lindsay steamer left for Curachee with 158 men of the 40th, and the Cleopatra will sail in a few days with the Bth Regiment of Native Infantry. Her Majesty's 41st have been ordered from Belgaum, and the 31st Native Infantry has re ceived orders to hold itself in readiness.—Bombay Times. Movements on the northern frontiers are not less active than around Bombay. A letter dated Cabal, August 16, in forms us that the 43d Native Infantry was on its march for Quettah, where the force previously existing consisted of 800 bayonets, two Horse Artillery guns and 100 of Christie's Horse. The 48th Native Infantry had been ordered for Ca bal.—Bombay Times. EGYPT. Our private letters from Alexandria come down to the 29th ult. On the 25th Captain Fisher, of the Asia, announced to the consul-general of Holland, that he had received instruc tions from Admiral Stopford to postpone the blockade of the harbour of Alexandria until the 20th of November, for the purpose of permitting vessels in ballast to enter, and allow ing the merchants of neutral nations to export their goods and merchandise. _ _ The Great Liverpool arrived at Alexandria on the 19th, with passengers, but without mails either for Egypt or India, both of which had been detained by the postmaster at Malta. The passengers for Bombay set out on the 24th, and every facility was afforded them for their journey to Suez. (Private Correspondence.) ALEXANDRIA, OCT. 29.—The new and splendid steamer Great Liverpool arrived here on the morning of the 19th, with 17 passengers for India, but without her mails, that for Alex andria as well as that for India having been taken out and detained at Malta by Rear-Admiral Sir John Louis, who kept her two days to think over it ! What are we to think of this second stoppage of our letters ? The detention of the mail for India may possibly be justified by political considerations, and the stringent orders of the Board of Controul, who claim a right to keep their eastern hemisphere in literary if not literal darkness ; but what sha dow of pretence can he or they have for preventing the com mercial communications, addressed to private individuals in this city, coming to hand ? There is no British consul here now, to compromise the bag by the inclusion of dangerous despatches. The British passengers (who are at least of as much value as so many letters) were allowed to come on freely, and safely made their way down the Red Sea last Sa turday, the 24th inst., in the Berenice. I am happy to he'able to say, that the Great Liverpool did not find the slightest obstacle thrown in the way of her safe anchorage off this port, and free communication with the shore. Of the blockading squadron only the Dido was visible, and the captain of that Corvette having formally discharged his duty by conveying the usual warning, the probable danger of entering the harbour in the present unsettled state of affairs left Captain Engledue to act in continuation to the best of his judgment. The Great Liverpool accordingly anchored at a safe distance off the port, and the agents put off to com municate with the captain and passengers. They were very agreeably surprised to find that no impediment whatever ex isted to their further progress to Suez, and accordingly in the course of the day came ashore, and next morning pur sued their journey uninterruptedly to Suez. 17 by the Great Liverpool, and 13 by previous vessels, fairly embarked on the 24th inst. in the Berenice (Captain Lowe), which brought the Bombay mail to Suez. (This mail arrived here last night, and, without any telegraphic warning, but preceded by one of the passengers, who came in at two o'clock in the after noon.) To resume, on the 20th Captain Engledue, having assured himself by conversation with the residents who visited the vessel that there was no personal danger to be appre hended on land, came on shore with some friends, and was introduced to the Pasha, who put an end to all his doubts for the safety of his gallant steamer by giving him a written assur ance that she might enter the harbour and remain in safety there as long as he pleased. Capt. Engledue did accordingly enter the eastern harbour next day, and lay in safety and com fort under the very guns of the smaller Pharos castle, doubtless to the astonishment of the squadron, who have since appeared without, and sent in the notification of the further postpone ment of the blockade. But I think that by this time they are inclined to concede to Mehemet Ali the characteristic of forbearance at least. On the 18th and 19th they were " far, far at sea," and vessels entering in ballast could find no blockading squadron off the port to warn them as usual, as if they were tired of frightening the poor mariners. Nay, at length they grew jocose about the matter, and on the morn ing of the 20th, when a Greek brig made bold to ask the Dido if she might enter the harbour, received a reply, " Go and ask the Great Liverpool." The Greek accordingly came up very seriously alongside the formidable steamer, and pre ferred his request, by permission of the corvette. "0 ! with all my heart !" replied the captain of the steamer ; so the Greek took courage, and went in without further question. As the Great Liverpool sails at sun-set I must conclude. Her passengers (12 from India and about 30 from Alexandria) are chiefly British, having a natural wish to breathe an atmo sphere free from blockades and bombardments, or a residence in some British port Where British steamers can bring them their British letters. Amongst them is Lady Isabella Sirow ski Pitcairn, who did not venture to India after all, but turned back at the first station in the desert. Some of the passengers at Suez would have taken open boats while making for the Berenice, and have sailed to Jidda or Aden, a three months' voyage, against the monsoon, if any could be procured. But all had been pressed into the service of the pasha, who had sent them on to Jiddo and Jembo, on the Arabian side, to bring across the remnant of his veterans to Cesseir on the African, and alas! two turned back to Cairo on the 23d inst., and so lost their passage. The paska is certainly intent on strengthening his hands in Egypt, aria I am further assured, looks to the upper country, and even as far as Sennaar, for a refuge in case of need, and if he should be obliged to abandon Alexandria. (From the Supplement to the Malta Times.) LATEST INTELLIGENCE FROM THE EAST. MALTA, NOVEMBER 2.—The Great Liverpool steamer arrived in port early this morning, having left Alexandria on the 28th ult. She brings an India mail, despatched from Bombay on the Ist ult., by the Berenice, which arrived at Suez on the 24th. Mehemet Ali afforded every assistance for the conveyance of the mail fo Alexandria, having given the East India Company's agent at that place one of his per sonal attendants to send for it. The following official com munication has been received by the Chief Secretary to Go vernment from Mr. Larking, British Consul at Alexandria. " British Consulate, Alexandria, Oct. 28. " SIR,—I have the honour to acquaint you that Mehemet Ali has afforded every facility for the transmission of the India mail from Suez to Alexandria, and renews his assu rance of protection and assistance for all future mails and passengers through Egypt.—l have, &c., " J.

SAVAGE ASSAULT ON ONE OF THE CONSTABULARY FORCE.—About half-past twelve o'clock on Saturday night last, as George Curdy, one of the county constabulary force belonging to the Ashton-under-Lyne division, was on duty on the Ashton and Oldham road, near a place called Water loo, he observed four fellows in the garb of colliers maltreat ing a woman who was on her way to Ashton. Curdy remon strated with them, upon which they used some very abusive language to him, and one of them st ruck him ; he a ttempted to draw his staff ' for the purpose of defending himself, and capturing his assailant, when one of the party kicked him twice and knocked him down, again kicking him in the ab domen. One of the men, whose name is su pp allo be William Jones, went up to Curdy, and, taking his sta from him, struck him several tremendous blows on one of his arms, by which, we are informed, Curd Y's arm was broken. the ruffians then made off. Search has been made for Jones, who has decamped ; but it is not expected that either he or his associates will long elude the vigilance of the police.— Manchester Guardian. SECOND EDITION. Standard Office, Two o'clock. EVERTON ELECTION 1839 COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, Nov. 12 THE QUEEN AGAINST GEORGE QUAYLE. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL (with whom was Mr. Cromp ton) showed cause against a rule calling on the defendant to show by what title he claimed to be a councillor for the ward of Everton and Kirkdalc, in the borough of Liverpool, and relied on several objections, one that it was not sworn that Mr. Quayle had been sworn into the office of councillor, or in what manner he had exercised that office—it was merely stated that he had been present at two meetings of the Com mon Council, which might have been as a mere bystander ; he cited " the Queen v. &atter," and pressed the court to decide on this preliminary point, which would prevent the necessity of going further into the case. Lord DENMAN said that the case of " the Queen v. Stat ter" was distinguishable from the present, that the affidavit of Mr. Quayle's having acted as a councillor was sufficient, and that the case must therefore proceed. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL then admitted that two cases of personation by voters for Mr. Quayle were proved, but said that there was also evidence:of personation in favour of his opponent ; he admitted that Mr. Shand would be in a ma jority unless he were at liberty to attack certain votes given for him, on the ground that they were not legal, by reason of certain defects in the voting papers. He admitted that he could not impeach in this proceeding the title of the voters to be on the burgess roll. Lord DENMAN observed, that Mr. Shand, the relator, had no opportunity of answering these objections, and that he therefore doubted whether the court could entertain them as a ground for its decision, and he directed that this point should be first argued. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL then argued that it would be most inconvenient if the defendant was not at liberty to im pugn the:votes given forlhis opponent. Mr. CROMPTON then argued the same point, urging that this case depended upon the documentary evidence of the voting papers. Mr. KELLY (for Sir W. Follett) and Mr. HENDERSON, on the other side, were stopped by the court. Lord DENMAN. — Great as the inconvenience alluded to by the Attorney-General may be, the inconvenience would be still greater if the court refused to put the case in a course of investigation. It is clear that the superintendence of this court is most important in such cases. I will not disqualify any man as a burgess, without first hearing him. The refer ence to documents is by no means decisive. This is my pre sent impression ; but we will consider the point, and if we see any occasion to alter our opinion, we will hear Mr. Kelly before we conclude. Mr. Justice WLLLIAMS.—The affidavits for Mr. Quayle leave the case of the relator unanswered, but lead into a dif ferent inquiry of facts which were not before the court. This is no answer to the case as shewn by the relator for inquiry. The case stands over for decision. ANOTHER FATAL RAILWAY ACCIDENT. DETENTION OF THE LONDON MAIL. An accident occurred last night on the London and Bir mingham Railway, at a place called Harlow, about 18 miles from the metropolis, which,(we regret to say, terminated in the death of two men, and in the destruction of property to a very considerable value. It appears that a luggage train was on its way from Birmingham to London, about six o'clock, at a moderate speed, when it was overtaken by an engine without any accompanying train. The night being somewhat dark, it is supposed the engineers could not see the luggage train : a collision took place, which shivered se veral of the luggage waggons, and totally destroyed the en gine. The engine attached to the luggage train was so much damaged that it will scarcely be fit for use again. We lament to say, that two men, who had the care of the engine which caused the concussion, were killed on the spot. One of them was taken up 'immediately afterwards, but the other was buried beneath the ruins of the broken waggons and engine, and some time elapsed before he could be extri cated. Information of this accident was conveYd to London, and the mail train, which should have left Euston-square at half past eight was detained till a quarter-past nine, in order to afford time for the line to be cleared. When the train, how ever, arrived at Harlow, it was again detained for an hour and three quarters, the clearing of the rails occupying that time. A gentleman who was a passenger by it, and from whom we have have received this information, states that whilst the train was waiting, the second man, who had not been extricated before, was released, his body found crushed to such a degree that it was impossible to distinguish his features. In consequence of this accident the mail to this town was four hours beyond its ordinary time. COUNCIL OF DISCIPLINE OF THE NATIONAL GUARD• THE GRENADIER' DINNER. President.—You have been guilty of a grave infraction of your duty, M. Serdat, in suffering packages to be carried into the garden of the Tuileries. Serdat.—lt was no package ; it was only a ceisiniere. President.—She had something in her hands. Serdat.—Yes, some plates. President.—Just so ; that is what you should not have suffered to enter. It is distinctly against orders. Serdat.—She had run all the way from the Rue de Seine to the gate in front of the Pont Royal. It was impossible to prevent her from entering. President. —Was there anything indispensable in what she carried ? . Serdat.—Egad, there was ; it happened to be my dinner. (Laughter.) President.—You should have made her go round the gate. Serdat (with impressement).—Bless your soul, my dinner would have been cold. President. —You did not profit in the least by your pre cipitancy. Your cook was stopped by one of the garden keepers. Serdat.—And my dinner too ! It was a flagrant shame. President.—A National Guard should always show a good example, and you did quite the contrary. You went directly in the teeth of the countersign. Serdat.—Pooh, pooh. I can understand no countersign which is injurious to the well-being of my stomach. I was hungry when they planted me at my post, and hungrier still, you may guess, after three hours' mounting guard. I should have eaten the countersign had I been kept much longer without my dinner—perhaps even demolish my boots ! (Laughter.) The refractory sentinel was then condemned to 12 hours' imprisonment. Serdat.—The Government may do its best, but it shall never compel me to commit an act so barbarous as that which you prescribe. President.—What is that ? Serdat.—Why, force a citizen, to be sure, to cross bayonets against the admission of his own dinner, The bowels of a Brutus would be unequal to such an act of patriotism ! (Much laughter.) LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET, NOVEMBER 10. (From the Circular of Messrs. James Scott 6. Sons.) During the past week the imports of Grain from Ireland. Coast ways, and from Foreign Parts, and the demand, have been equally limited and Moderate, with little or no variation in last quoted prices, excepting in some descriptions of Wheat, on which a small reduction has been submitted to here, and in all our surrounding markets. The weather, though reported favourably in the south, has been very rainy here and to the northward for the last two weeks, and unfavourable for securing the Potato crops and for Wheat sowing, in which very little progress has yet been made. The only alteration in the duties on Grain from Foreign Ports since Friday last is an increase of Is 6d per qr. on Oats and Rye. Some parcels of New York Flour have been sold at 24s to 24s 6d per barrel, in bond for export, but many imports hold at 25s to 26s and fine Wheat in bond at 6s to 6s 3d per 701 b. At this day's market we have had a very thin attendance, and in consequence of the dullness and decline in Mark-lane, sales have been effected to a very limited extent at a small reduction of Id to 2d per 701 b on Wheat, and id per 451 b on Oats ; all other Grain participated in this depression excepting superfine sweet Flour, which is now becoming rather scarce, and fully supported last week's rates.

IMPORTANT APPEAL. On Wednesday a general meeting of the Commissioners of Assessed and Land Taxes for the division of St. Maryle bone took place at the Court-house, Marylebone-lane.— Thomas Fielden, Esq., in the chair. In consequence of the new rating to the window duties an extraordinary scene presented itself on the occasion. The number of persons attending to appeal against this species of rating not only completely occupied the spacious vestry-room, but the waiting-rooms and lobbies of the Court-house were literally blocked up by them. Some pre liminary business having been disposed of, Mr. Hugh Biers, of No. 12, Dorset-place, one of the commissioners, appealed against the increase in his window duties (from 22 to 27 windows) under the 4th and sth of William IV., cap. 54, sec. 7. This clause enacts that " all persons who were duly assessed to or under composition for window duties for the year ending the sth of April, 1835, and who continued to reside in the same premises, are en titled to open, and keep open, free of duty, any additional number of windows in the premises so assessed or com pounded for." Under this section of the act Mr. Biers contended that be was exempt from any charge beyond the 22 windows assessed in 1835, and, to show that he was duly assessed, he wished to call the attention of the board to the difference in the mode of assessing these taxes. The as sessed taxes on horses, carriages, servants, &c. were re turned by the parties to be assessed under a declaration, and subject to a penalty for an improper return, but not so with respect to window duties. The window duties were assessed by the assessor, assisted by the crown officer, who was empowered under the act to enter into, to count, and to make a return of the number of windows rateable to each respective house, with which return the party assessed had nothing whatever to do, and was seldom present when the survey was made. The, number of windows taken by the assessor was returned to the surveyor, subsequently by the surveyor to the board of commissioners, who directed the amount to be collected by their collectors, and another return IA as then made to the board of taxes. Under these circumstances, he (Mr. Biers) would maintain that after five years' collection had been paid upon a charge made by the parties themselves it was as unjust as illiberal to turn round upon the ratepayers and say, "Notwithstanding it was our own fault that in 1834 an aperture may have es caped our charge, yet the penalty shall be inflicted not only for such windows as were then in existence, but also all those that have been since opened upon the faith of that act." He wished to impress upon the board the injustice of this attempt, inasmuch as the assessors of 1834 might, and no doubt did, exercise a discretion in taking the win dows, leaving out, perhaps, a lancet-light or loophole made for the purpose of ventilating a water-closet or larder, whilst the surveyors of 1840, having received from the Tax Office the most stringent orders to keep up to the uttermost, would count even a gimblet-hole in a door for the purpose of increasing the duties. This, he contended, was not the way in which the government intended that the taxpayers should be treated ; but, even if so, he should still contend that according to the definition of the word " duly," which meant "properly," "regularly," he had been properly and regularly assessed by the parties whose duty it was so to do; and also that they could not amerce any ratepayer for any laches of parties themselves. In fact, it would be most unjust of the hoard of commissioners to amerce an appel lant by inflicting the additional charge of the whole of the windows now found under the present squeezing system, upon the ground that the surveyors of 1834 had either in advertently or liberally left out of the charge at that period a pane of glass which they considered ought not to be charged. He should, therefore, strenuously contend that in 1834 he was duly assessed, and consequently not liable to the additional cliarße now attempted to be enforced. A long discussion upon the point raised ensued amongst the board of commissioners, which was a very full one, and the decision was ultimately postponed till the next meeting. Within the last fortnight three men have lost their lives at the works of the Box Tunnel, an d two others have had their limbs dreadfully mangled. PRICES OF SHARES, NOVEMBER 12. Prices.

An uninterrupted dullness has reigned in our market the whole of this week, and the prices of all descriptions of Butter may be noted 2s to 38 per cwt lower. The chief cause of this depression is attributable to the present difficult position of monetary affairs, — such position we take leave to say, being the undoubted effect of the pusillanimity of her Majesty's Ministers, in permitting " Re peal of the Union" to be agitated by an English-hateing,—Radical loving, Irish demagogue, with impunity ;—and of the extraordi nary and puerile propensity which these incapables possess for Little Wars in all parts of the world. How much longer will the commercial community submit to the infliction of their baneful rule, without some intelligible expression of indignation ? Recent accounts from Brazil state that French Butter had made its appearance abundantly, and that prices of Irish had experienced a serious decline. The nominal currency of pickled seconds, here, to-day is 92s ; but we have reason to believe that an offer of 3s to 4s less money would not be refused. We have no alteration to notice in the value of Beef or Pork. The trade remains excessively dull. The top price of Bacon is 545.
