THE STEAM RACKETS FOIL INDIA.

SOUTHAMPTON, At GVFT 8.

The Peninsular and Oriental Company's stunned
Candle will be taken out to India by Captain Brown. Tle
following °Mien have tereeely booked themselves to go at
in her, viz. Colonel Mathie ; Captains Pelly, Sage, Ludt
Itemise, Stansbury, French, Baird, G. Clarke, RughWe
Tedlie, and T. G. Miller ; Lieutenants Reinert, W. B.
Shawe, and Renner; and Ensign Monis. lo consecinenos
of the loss of the Erin, in India, the mowers of the
Peninntler end Oriental Compeny have decided that
no one shall be appointed to command any of their ships
in the Indian and Chinese seas by their superintendent et
Calcutta, unless such person has been confirmed as come
mender by the company. In addition to the two ships
Granada and Delhi, which have just been launched for ass
Peninsular and Oriental Company. the company have °Mud
four more ships to be built. Captain Brooke, the commodore
of the company's fleet, has been superannuated on full pig
(6001. a year). Ile hes been in the company's service twit,/
20 yams, has commanded a number of their largest shin
and never met with any d 'easter. Ile has mug
himself a Sod-rate practiced navigator. The Alberni:es,
which broke down on her lest Peninsular voyage, will shortly
be ready fur sea again. The Pere, which broke down as
her last Alexandrian voyage, will take three menthe repair•
ing, as one of her engines is almost completely gene. Be
tresk down was very singular. A small steamer was as tbi
look out for her in the Solent, in order to follow ha up I
Southampton Water, and transship her mails if else could Id
go into dock. The Fero arrived off Lepe in the Solidi
take in her pilot. She war seen from the small steams le
atop for this purpose, and immediately the latter flatted op
SouthamptenWatee to be in readiness for the i'ers. Jut as
the smell steamer got inside Calehut Castle and out of ltd
of the Pens, guns commenced thing and rockets were sessi•
ing in the direction of Lope. This induced the captain of tke
liule steamer to turn back awl run for Lope, shah,
found that the Pere had completely broken down ma
could not move either way. Had she not stepped fee
the pilot there can be no doubt but what she
would have steamed right up to Southampton. Like ths
horse mentioned in the Pickwick Papers, while she was kept
going, she would go, but the instant she stopped there was
no more go in her. It was meet fortunate that she was
ast
stopped before she was so near home. She was towed btu
Lope to Southampton. The rem is the largest steamer b••
longing to the Peninsular end Oriental Company. espial
Black, who has been in commiuld of the Bengal, the IMO
of the company's mull Almoner. in the Indian Ices, and Ad
commanded the Colombo on her last voyage to Aleurside
end back, is on the sick list. Ilia wife was ono of the pa
angers from India in the Colombo. She loot two sits rdr
lives, officers, in India, who were killed in the Bing
mutiny, and her father, who is also an officer in India, bade
narrow escape form the mutineers. The following coca
have been booked to go out in the Indian mail packets ideal
are to leave Southampton, vie.:—Colonels Hereford, Lame
