Scinde is quiet and healthy. Sir C. Napier has re-
turned to Kurrachce from Hyderabad. A compli-
mentary order to General Hunter had been issued by
him on the retirement of the worthy veteran from
the country. Tne 3rd Light Cavalry, supposed to
have fake under the
.governor's displeasure in con-
sequence of their having permitted the Booghties to
escape them, have been highly complimented in
orders.
A letter front General W. Napier to the Editor of
the Sun, has brought out a bundle of disclosures as
to the number of troops employed in Scindc. The
Governor of Guernsey must have received his infor-
mation from his brother, and Sir C. Napier must in
this ease have sent forth two statements—one for the
Commander-in-Chief, the other for publication, the
latter differing from the former by nearly nine
thousand men ! This sad exposure meets the state-
ment of Lord Ellenborough published in September
last, that General Sir C. Napier advanced on Mooltan
in March, 1846, with 13,000 men and 100 gnus,
leaving Scinde unprotected : instead of this, he
advanced on Bahawulpore, a friendly atter., with
12,000 men and 30 guns, leaving au army of 20,000
on the Indus. This time twelve months there were
32,000 men in Scinde. By such fearful mis-
statements front the highest quarters are the people
rt home deluded. Twenty-four thousand troops have
within the last four years been raised avowedly for
the use of Scinde and the money wasted in the,
country since its conquest exceeds seven million stirl-
ing —the garrisons formerly defended our frontier,
but now some hundreds of miles in our rear, having'
been strengthened by the addition of a fourth to their
former numbers. It is now understood that there
will be no change in this state of matters so long as
the Duke of Wellington can prevent the exposure of
the criminality and madness of Lord Ellenberough's
policy which must follow the subjection of the country-
to the rule of the East India Company. The trade ea
the Indus, and public works said to have been con-
structed, arc creations of the imagination. The price
of the commodities conveyed for commercial pur-
poses would not pay for the coal of the steamers con-
s-clang them.
The Sikh guns, 252 in number, captuted in the
late campaign, have reached Calcutta. The cost of
their conveyance front the Sutlej to the Hooghly is
estimated at 23,000/.
Sir Thomas M'Mahon, Commander-in-Chief of
the Bombay army, leaves us by this day's steamer,
amidst the general good wishes of the community.
Having declined to accept of a gift on his departure,
a bracelet, of the value of nearly 2,0001., has been
bestowed on Lady M'Mahon. General Morse Bac-
cceds him as Commander of the Forces until the
arrival of Sir W. Cotton, who is expected, here
about the 10th proximo.
A meeting for the relief of the distressed Scotch
and Irish took place a week since, and already has
nearly 3,0001. been subscribed at the Presidency,—
our princely Parsee Knight, Sir Jemsetjee Jeejeeb •
boy, contributing 300/. out of his own pocket.
The Governor of Bombay is about proceeding to
the Mahabuleshwur Hills, returning to the Presi-
dency prior to the despatch of the Ist of April mail.
The Dutch bark Marie has been wrecked at
Madras, a heavy ground swell having caused her to
drag her cable and drift ashore.
Sir E. Perry has decided that the late opium sale
time bargains at Bombay were legal, Sir 1). Pollock
being of a contrary opinion. It is said that an ap-
peal against the judgment of the Chief Justice is
about to be transmitted home.
The country- generally is healthy and quiet, and
the hot weather beginning to set in.

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.
BOMPAY, Manes 15.—Cotton piece goods The late accouats from
England being leas enemonging, and only two months remising
of the season for diepodng of galls, holders have become
free In offering their stocks, and at the sale time dealers
hare become cautious, and do not purchase beyond their imme-
diate wants. The business done since the 2nd inst. has coneequently
been too limited extent only. The advance noticed on grey good, in
one Last bas not been sustained excepting the Domestics, which main.
ten their previous value. Turkey red goods are ratherhull of sale.
In fancy goods there ore no changes.
Cotton Yarn.—There is a very fined inquiry for the best quality. A
larger amount of Wainer bas been dose wan what we reported in
1 our lest for the latter half of the last mouth.
Dyed.—A very good demand hot sprung op, and as ranch as 12
annas per lb. have Men obtained for N 0.40 in bundles of 711 b.
Turkey.—The inquiry is only eooflncd to best quality. We quot
as before Ir. and 7a. to Ir. and 12a. per lb.
Metals.—English Iron continues In demand, but no further im-
provement has token place in prices.
A sale of 400 candles, of a C01i131041 assortment, hse been reported
at 33 neves.
Swedish bars.—On the departure of the last mail Reale of 200 can-
dles of assortment wan effected at rupees, and since
bromic, of very good =moment, chiefly consisting of 'quire bars,
hare been effected, one of 130 =indica at 52 rupees, the other of 303
medley at 50 rupees per candy. In other kerne, no alteration worthy
of notice, excepting in sheets and hoops, on which a decline of one
quarter to one half rupee has taken place.
Copper continuo, in demand. The stuck in the fleet hand is none,
and that of the bazaars is very moderate. We therefore expect our
present quotations will be maintained for some time to co ic.
Spellers—A epeculative inquiry. is going on from too European
houses, in consequence of its having risen considerably in England,
and therefore 12} to 12; meth, ore asked by the bazaar dcolers, for •
small quantity they bold of their former purchaser.
Cochineal—Continues scarce, and only a small quantity bus teen
imported, of which 1,50 gb. have been sold at 4 rupees am 12 anew
per lb.
Beer.—ln Alleop's we bare heard of sales to the extent of 300 hogs-
heads, at 75r. per hogsbeed of the lest October brew, which are ex-
pected to arrive here in the month of April nest. In Bare we have
heard of Wes to the extent of 159 hogsheads at .15r., of the old brew.
Of last October btu with their brand we have heard of no sales.
Corrox.—Prlces on new have advanced a little, owing to the
demand for the China market.
Opium.—Malwa has not varied much. in few instances • trifling
advance wu paid for an approved parcel. We quote I,llor. to 1,120 r.
per chest
Freight —ttao, not much site cI. Since our last, three vowels hare
engaged their cargo both for liindein and Liverpool at ef. ISs., and
wiN the bee few days tonnsge hes become again soiree, and
et. 17e. 6d. has been paid for the titter por .
To China it has receded owing to many large country vowels being
put on the berth, and we have beard of en engagement done at 92r.
per may, which are our quotations of the day.
Kienasor..—lt bas then, and purchases fue the math bane been
effected at U. 0&d. fog bills from China, and at 2.. Old. to 20.01 d. for
local ones at six months' sight. On Cake' la 30 daps' sight, 99r. Ga. .
Bank Steelc.--Sharee In the Bank of Bombay, 36 per ceot. premium
laa. Oriental Bank, 20i to 21 premium.
Commercial, 4 „
Marten 15, Two o'rweit—Since morning a great demand has
arisen for bill, on England, and the rate has fallen to 26. Old. and
2s. 08d., at which several transact too have ten effected. This de-
maM is attributed to the reduction to Is. 10d., which took place in
the billed the lion. Company on India, of which a large quantity has
come by the mail of Saturday but. The rate for governmeht bilis on
Bengal Us also receded—and is now not higher than 988 for sixty
days' eight.
Csuctere, Moses B.—She government expires of the mail, ere
Bombay, came to hand on the 23rd ult., and put us lo posremion of
Lomita. dates to the 7th of January ; ati however, business had only
recommenced a day, or two previous to the despatch of the
mail, the commercial intelligence was not of much impor-
tance, except as cordirming that bronOt by the Be.ntinek.
In this market we have but little charge to notice, but.
if anything, there has been rather more doing in produce, an,
en-films in imcorts, the former being induced by the continuance of
their advimms by government at the rate of M. per rupee, and the
comparatively low prime which the Large stow base compelled
holders to accept, and the la.ter by Me continued scarcity of money,
the almost entire geamtion of purchases throuelvoot the past week in
consequence of the Ulnaoo rest'val of the uolelatim, and also in
a great measure bugs amounts received of the high prices miter at

INDIOO.—C IMAMS. hs been interrupted by a succession of holydaye,
in coneequence of which only three publia sales were held from the
17th to the end of Yeheuary, and one large one Mare ; at which, how-
ever, every chest found purelemere at former rates.

Rice.—The paucity of tonnage con!inars the only apparent restric-
tion on operations in this staple for the ErialMli markets, which have
nevertheleas been rather extensive.
RAW Mtg.—The somewhat improved Inquiry for this staple, as
noticed in our last, has continued, more especially for Cneelmkear,
Ilurrypaul, and Radnagore, of the November Blind ; and the supply
of these descriptive' being moderate, previous rates have been main-
tain.
Saedn PIACI, GOOM—Mtelly fine mishit have been in good demand
at full prime, say 123 r. to 130 r per corge, but of them the supply has
been very moderate, whilst of low and mlcklling goods, which are tu
limited inquiry, and obtainable at comparatively low rotes, site stock
is heavy. Cooppas and bandannas of good quality are seldom
