THE OVERLAND MAIL.

We have received our files of journals and letters
in anticipatiun of the Overland Mail. The dates are :
Ihmilety, March 3, and Calcutta, Feb. :al.
Our correspondent writes as follows :
BOMBAY, Meacn 3.
The present mail is certainly a newsless one, and
it therefore saves letter-writers a deal of unnecessary
labour to send the summaries of the journals of this
morning, as they contain everything worth noticing
or likely to be of interest to f glish readers. The
last tiding'', of the governor-general were that he had
quitted Kalabagh. and was speeding on for Pesha-
wur. At the former place he had been joined be
Brigadier Hodgson and his staff, who had proceeded
from Luker, near Bunnoo, for that purpose. His
lordship is said, by one paper, to have been suffering
from a severe attack of illness. brought on. most
likely, by the heavy rains which had fallen during
nearly the whole time he was on the road: he was.
however, better. Another tells us he was in perfect
health. The tribes of Kuhat are still inclined to show
their teeth. The Ist Punjaub Cavalry had managed
secretly to get through the Pass. but the Afreedies had
determined they would not again be caught napping.
and had ever since kept the pass shut, so that all
communication had been cut off with that corps. The
Mid Cavalry was to have followed the Ist by the
same piss, hut had to make a considerable detour
to reach their destination. The -ith Punjaub
lulhntry reached Kuhat on the 7th Feb., having
been 43 days on their march front Luisore. The
three corps ut Kolutt were in good health. The 2nd
Cavalry was to take on treasure to the amoun.. of
24,0001. to Bunnoo—a rich harvest for the moun-
taineer., if they can but get at it. The following is
the distribution of the irregular Punjaub force:
lionay.—lst battery, Lieut. nay; Ist Cavalry, Lieu*
Daly; Ist Int.:nary. Capt. Coke: Ilth Infantry. Venniss.
ILLzatia..--Cllus.un ; 3rd Infantry. —.

MITIIESKOTE.-3PI Cavalry, Capt. Prendergast.
The commissioner of Scinde was expected at Suk-
kur about the 2itth nit. General Manson and staff
had passed through the station on their tour of
inspection to Shikarpore and Khangur ; on their re-
turn the troops at Sukkur were to be reviewed and
inspected. There was but little 'sickness prevalent
anywhere iu Seinde. A large number of Kailas
hail reached Kurrachee from Kandahar, bringing
wool. shawls, fruits, &c., &e. The weather was not
very pleasant.
The following transfers among the civil officers in
the l'unjaub have been ordered : Captain Hamilton
from Kuria l'indec to Jhung; Major Clarke, from
Jung to Slutikhoopoora : Mr. W. It. Carnae. from
Gobi to Peshawur: Mr. B. Sapte, from the latter
to the former district the 24th loot. from Wuzeer-
abed, had taken the place of the Ist Bengal Fusiliers,
who had quitted the station fur Meerut, most of the
men requiring to be provided with carriage, they
being unable to march. The Lahore Chronicle has
the following paragraph:
Lt is with unfeigned satisfaction we arc permitted to an-
nounce that a truly Christian member ut our community
has authorized us, through the Rev. J. Newton. of the
Fresbyterimi Mission at Lahore, to intimate his readiness
to contribute the sum of ten thonnud rupees towards the
funds of the Church Missionary Society at home, on the fol-
lowing conditions, viz. Ist, that the society determine on
establi,hing a mission in some part of the Punjaub. 2ndly.
that the society signify, in this country. their intimation of
establishing a mission. on or before the Ist of ()ember.
and lastly, that the missionaries intended to enter on such
an extensive held be in Calcutta, or iu any part of
un or before the tint day of March.
The auction at Lahore of the confiscated property
proceeded apace. but nothing like the real value of
the articles was realised. Messrs. Vansittart and
Thornhill. Bengal C. S., lately employed in the Cis
and Trans-Sutha territories, ithe former it was who
captured the celebrated Seikh Gooroo, or high priest.
in 184 a) hare arrived in Bombay. by way of the
Indus. They leave for England 'by this evening's
steamer. Lord Grosvenor and party are now on
their way to the eaves of Ellora, refs Indure, and are
expected here in time for the mail of the
3rd of April. The Madras Mint is to be
abolished. The vacant deputy - aasay - master-
ship, Bombay Mint is, I hear, to be conferred
on a person in Bombay, who has laboured
utore for the goad of the natives than almost any
man amongst us, and who is therefore the best en-
titled to favours from the Court of Directors, in
whose gift the Mint berth lies. The Bombay
Rail-
way is getting on well : this morning the board are
advertising for 54,000 sleepers. People say they have
slept long enough, and that now they should be up
and doing. This they are, and before three years are
over I hope to have a trip for an hour to "lannah and
back. The proprietors of houses in and near the
Fort and Ilyeulla may then look for a reduction
in their profits with a vengeance. The Com-
mander-in-Chief. Sir John Grey. and staff, left
Bombay early this morning for the hills.—Lord

service has for a lung time possessed. tilled as it
generally is with able men. lie and the governor
are not believed always to hare agreed in their views
of things in general, and on particular measures
they have often been diametrically opposed. I
As to the report that he had got the berth of
sheriff for Dr. Buist a greater falsehood
could not have been circulated. Mr. Willoughby
knew nothing of the appointment till after it had
been bestowed-4n fact, he and the governor were
not particularly friendly at the time. Sr E. Perry's
letter ion law reform) to Lord Campbell has been
almost universally commended by the community :
Sir G. Anderson. at, Ceylon, is believed to be about
to introduce similar reforms into the law courts of
that colony. The young Prince of Indere has been
on a ourney of instruction" and pleasure to the
principal stations in Upper India and the
urthwest. The enemies of Mr. Hamilton.
the resident. represented that his pupil had tired
of his restraints, and bolted!—and, strange to
say, there were many who believed the story. Mr.
J.T. of the Bengal C.S., has resigned the
service. Captain It. Dawson, sth Bengal lately
in command of the 2nd Punjaub Cavalre, died at
Bombay on Wednesday lest, 111 very embarrassed cir-
cumstances. Poor man, he had provided dearer arms
for Lis corps than the regulations allowed, and he was
mulct by government to that extent monthly as to
reduce him to poverty. almost to destitution. lie could
not get home for want of money, I suppose, and the
[consequence was. that Bombay has become his last
home in this world. Sir I. Jejeebhoy has offered to
give 40.0040. towards the supply of water to Bombay
from Salsette, providing no water rate is levied un
the people by government; the cost of the proposed
scheme is 'altogether 130.000/. Government are
willing to Five 40.000/.. and thus 70.000/. require
to be subecribed by the public at large. Sr J. J.'s
name will be handed down to posterity as one
of the greatest benefactors of his fellow men who
ever lived.

GENERAL KLkPILL

TO THE EDITOR OF TIM DAILY NEWS.
Sts.—Lord Lyndhurst, in his lust speech in the
House of Lords, charged Gen. Klapka with having issued
a proclamation from London in order to induce the Hun-
garian soldiers to desert the Austrian standards. Now. sir,
General Klapka resides in France, not in England, and for
the last six months he has only been at London for a very
f:w days. It is true that he issued last ;year prucla-
.jnatiou, but just to the contrary purpose than it pleases
Lord Lyndhurst to assert. via., that the Hungarian sol-
diers should toot leave the Austrian maks. It is almost
superfluous to observe that it is ridiculous to style the
gallant general "a man named Klapka ;" he has engraved
with his sword his rank in the annals of Hungary.
We are, sir, your most obedient servants,
