COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

BOMBAY, Nov. 1.

Oar money market hes remained quiet daring the fort-
night, and rates of interest at the banks remain unaltered,
bat, u specie is now being shipped in large amounts to Cal-
cutta and other quarters, will no doubt affect our market to
some extent. Four per cent. Government paper has fallen
per cent. from our previous quotation. Other stocks re-
main at about former prices.
The sales in the import market bass not been at all ex-
tensive for this union of the year, and the prices realized
have been in some instances lower than those last reported;
the only staples for which there has been a demand are
grey shirtinp, grey madapollams, T. cloths, and domestic's.
Grey yarns are more enquired for, and quotations show a
slight improvement in value, but coloured yarns are scarcely
saleable at former rates.
Estonia —nippieste are rather slack, sad cotton has
declieed in value, and may now be quoted for Broach and
Burnt, Rs. 94 to 95 per candy ; Dhollera, Rs. 98 to 97 ;
Ouirawutty aid Mangreol, Re. 88 to 90; Coorapta, Rs. $8
to 90; aimed Dharwar, Rs. 112 to 116 ; and ginned Broach,'
Ri. 100 per candy.
OPIVIG—The market has been less active, and prices have
slightly receded to our quotation. The steamer to sail on
the 3rd inst. carries 2,000 chests.
Tonneau is abundant, but freights eve low, and several
large ship. on the berth for England are loading very slowly
To Liverpool we quote 21. 7s. 6J, to 21. 10s., and to Loudon
21. 16e. to 21. 17s. 6d. for cotton, with about 6s. more for
feeds.

AAAAA on Ragland for the put fortnight ruled a

ness done may be quoted 3q. 1 7-16.hd. to 2e. 10. for China
and fiat-elan credit, and 2e. 1 9.l6thd. to 2s. 1 t 1, for clout
meats. Os Calcutta we quote Rs. It per tent. premium at

Rs. 1 pet cut. premium at sight, and per cent. premium
at 30 days' sight. Oa China, Rs. 220, at 60 day.. sight.
CALCUTTA, Now. 22.
The business of this greet commercial city is at this agues
entirely suspended; the Custom.housis, the Treasury, the
public offices, the banks, and the majority of houses of ba•
5i.... wets closed on the 18th instant. and will remain ins
until the 26th, inclusive.

The activity is oar produce market has continued, but
there is a general sanity of money. la piece goods we do
not think say improvement in prime can be noted, nor can
we hops hr 'deans*. The money market bus Mooed with

CHINA.

The following intelligence is from the Overland
Friend of China of Oct. 18 :
"The Imperialists have been defeated by the
patriots in engagements near Ching keang foo; and
have met with much disaster in K wang-si, and in
parts of Kwangtung. In the north foreigners feel
little from the national troubles—in the south, what
little trade flourished a month ego has been
checked. The squadrons of Chinese easels
on the coast have, on two or three occasions
lately, been severely cut up and dispersed by Captain
Vansittart, with her Majesty's sloop Bittern. In a
recent attack at Shihpo? (or Shapoo)' on a fleet of
twenty-two west-coast junks, the crews being driven
on shore, to the number of 1,200, were all destroyed.
Captain Vansittart, in a despatch published by Sir
John Bowring, with whose eanotion, if not at whose
direct instance, these attacks on Chinese vessels in
arms on the coast have taken place, calls the crews
of the destroyed junks " villains."

Russian 'dilemma there was destroyed, when the
flags of France and England were planted, and the
natives, with a present of flour, told they had now

(REPORT BY COLONEL SIMMONS ON llut
PABSAGE OF THE INGOUR.

(TROY LLST NIGHT'S GLZWITI.)
FOREIGN OFFICE, Nov. 29.
The Earl of Clarendon has received a daysti
from Major Simmons, her Majesty's co:imolai*"
attached to the army of Omer Pacha in Asia,
which the following is a copy :
Camp, Sharsgwano, November?,
My Lord,—l have to inform your lordship that
Omer Pacha, having collected a depot of IHOTWAN
at Tchimshera,` moved on by the sea-cosec to 4"
mouth of the river Ertiee-Tchal, where a Muth%
bridge was immediately constructed for the mui
of the troops. The advanced guard, co-sistio'fr 0116
battalions of infantry and 3 battalions of chasm
under Lieutenant-Colonel Ballard, the whole me.
mended by Forbad Pacha (Baron Stein), awed ta
the 28th of October to the village of Erties-ashe.
From that day until the Ist November his hid
newt was occopted in sending up provision" joi,
advanced guard, in moving other troops to wpm
it, and in establishing depots at Godova, at thalami
of the Ertiss-Tchal, whence to provision his ma*
a forward movement.
. .

On the lit instant the advanced guard mond
about 10 miles forward, having its advanced portion
the River Ingour, opposite an old ruined cutle celled
Ruki, on the road to Sugdidi.
His highness joined the advanced guard him/
on the 3rd instant, his total force consisting of I
brigades (32 battalions) of infantry, 4 battalion -of
chairman, and 1,000 cavalry, with 27 feld pincessad
10 mountain guns, or in ell about 20,000 men; tk
remainder of his force, about 10,000 men, being
ployed to protect the depots at Godova, Tchimsketa,
and Soukoum.

On the 4th instant his highness commented oso•
structing batteries on the right bank of the Issue,
with the view of menacing the enemy by the font at
Ruki. These batteries were armed on the follow*
night, and opened their fire on the morning. of
Bth instant about noon. On the same morning hie
highness moved three brigades of infantry (24 beta.
lions) with three batteries, with an advanced mid
of three battalions and a half of chasm* sad foci
guns, under the command of Colonel Ballard,down
the right bank of the river, a distance of about sevja
miles, where a branch of the river was forded to an
Island, which is some miles in length, and from a
half to two miles wide.

After proceeding along this island for 'boat two
mile, some Mingrelian militia were encountersdour
' a ford, which crosses from the island to the leftbeit
of the river. They speedily retired, when thawing
opened a fire of artillery and a heavy fire of musket,
from the intrenchments on the left bank, thrown m
for the protection of the ford.
It very soon became evident that to force a direst
passage at this ford would be a very difficult We.
taking.
His highness, therefore, while occupying the
at this ford, sent officers to the right end left, and
were discovered in both directions; one about
quarters of a mile above or to the left of the mislaid,
the other about one mile and a halt below or to the
right of the main ford.
Troops were immediately sent to these fteds;
that to the left was unprotected. The passage TN
made by two battalions of infantry and threes*
panies of ehameurs by about 4 p.m. His bights'
having entrusted me with this command, I moviel
them by a waggon.track through the forest unpile
(relived by the eeemy, until within about 600 yards if
the position at the main ford, which his troops Irate
occupied in defending from a direct attack. 1.1.
Turkish troops advanced readily to the attack,talus;
the enemy and his intreochmente in reverse.
The enemy immediately fell back, and attempli
to break through the Turks in column ; but being
met by a heavy fire in their frontiand on both flub,
they broke and dispersed in the forest, leaving m
masters of the field, with three pieoes of their
artillery and six ammunition waggons is our powee
soon. At the moment that the Russian colossi
attempted to break through our line, I grieve to my
that my aide-de-camp, Captain Dymock, 95th R#
meet, having first had his horse killed under him, tim
wounded close by my side, encouraging the Turkia
ofa as
most
troops. He died soon afterwards. His death is
be deplored,
