LATEST INTELLIGENCE.

THIS DAY. Four o'clock.

Sir James Weir Ilogg, Bart., the chairman of the
East India Company, has announced his intention of
peoposinif to the Court of Directors, on the 11th inst.,
ebs nomination of Mr. George Russell Clerk to the
toNtmment of Bombay, vacant by the resignation of
1r George Arthur. As the consent of the Board of
Control to this appointment has been obtained, there
is little doubt but that the Court of Directors will con-
firm it. Mr. Clerk is a gentleman of tried service
and acknowledged reputation. He entered the Bengal
civil service in 1816, and having filled various
political offices in Rajpootanna and elsewhere,
he was placed as agent to the Governor-General at
Umballa in 1831. In 1839 he proceeded to Lahore
on an imyortant mission to Runjeet Singh, and in the
following year he was appointed political agent on
the north-western frontier, the duties of which office
he continued to discharge during the trying period in
which British relations were embarrassed with the
different states beyond the Indus.
Mr. Clerk was subsequently appointed Lieutenant-
Governor at Agra, and in 1844 obtained a seat in the
Supreme Council of India, of which body he is still a
member. The appointment of Mr. Clerk to the
government of Bombay will, we doubt not, give
general satisfaction. And it would be well if, in
similar cases, the Court Directors were to resort
more frequently to the members of their own
services instead of appointing to offices of such high
trust those who have no pretension to Indian expe-
rience.

The intentions of the French government, with re-
spect to Madagascar are being developed. The Moni-
teur contains a notice by the Minister of Marine,
inviting tenders for the supply of six wooden houses,
necessary for the establishment of Mayotte, to be
delivered within 120 days, either at Havre' Cher-
bourg, Nantes, Bordeaux, or Marseilles. The Courier
Frsneais says :
" We have noticed a report at Bourbon of an intended
expedition against Tamatave. According to our last letters
from this colony, the ships of war that are to take part in it
me the Belle Poole frigate, the Berccau sloop, the Voltigeur
brig, and the Archimi:de steamer, with two hired transport.
The military force will be, it is said, 1,500 men, and half a
battery of artillery. The project is to take possession of
Trunatave, fortify it, and cstabl6h a regular intercourse with
the people on the coasts. The attack was to be made very '
promptly, before the setting in of the winter, which is always
fall of danger on these seas."
When the last accounts left, the Admiral on the
Cape station was concentrating a naval force at the
Mauritius, but whether with a view to hostilities
against Madagascar, or merely for the purpose of I
watching the French squadron, was uncertain. Upon
this subject we extract the following from tho Mau-
sitius Guardian :
We find the utmost uncertainty exists as to the intentions
of the British government in regard to Madagascar; or
whether they have any intentions. We think it not impro-
bable the bullock trade may re-open itself, by the Madagas-
car OifiCeN permitting the captains of our vessels to purchase
bullocks from them without the medium of European
traders ; but we see very little probability. of the trade being
reopened by force of arms through the intervention of the
governments of Mauritius and Bourbon. The only thing
those interested in the trade can do is to seek this peaceful
re-opening of it, by letting the Madagascar officers know the
actual absence of any designs of retaliation or aggression on
the part of the British government.—Mastritius Watchman.
