which he belongs, to abandon.

It cannot be said that Lord Mutostavt's appoint-
ment to Nava Scotia comes under the lowest cate-
gory of the Colonial Government appointments; on
the contrary, the colooy of Nova Scotia is placed by
the Colonial-office itself, in the " Rale' and Rego-
" lotion' for her Majesty's Colonial Service"
issued in March, 1836, at the head of the second
alas of Colonies which it enumerates, and in that
clam New Brunswick, Prince Edward's Inland, Ja-
maica, and the Bahamas, are described as inferior to
Nova Scotia. Why the principle of progression and
advancement should not hare been applied to Nova
Scotia, on the removal of Sir GASPARD LE MAR-
I
ett•xr from Nova Scotia to Malta—as well as to
Malta on the retirement of Sir W. Run—no earthly
reason can be assigned, except that a man of Lord
MIAGRAVE'S family, and position, and connexion,
has a vested or birth right to enjoy advantages in
entering on a career of Colonial Government which
are very properly denied to less influential pee-
images.

NINE DAYS LATER FROM CALCUTTA.

GENERAL HAVELOCK'S POSITION AT

LUCILNOW.

Telegraphic message received [this day] at the
East India Muse from Calcutta, 31st Oct., 1837,
from 0. F. Edmonstone, Esq., to the Secretary
of the Government of India :

" LUCKNOW.

" Communications still difficult, and no certain
intelligence from Lucknow of later date than 21st
Oct. received at this office.

.On that date food was running short, and it
would seem that the gun bullocks were being
slaughtered.
" But relief was approaching. Colonel Oreathed's
column, after reoccupying Mynpoorie, putting the
Rajah to flight, and recovering much property and
ten and a half lam of treasure, reached Cawnpore
on the 26th.

" For some time past troops have been leaving
this daily for the eame destination, and the Com-
mander-in-Chief started on the 27th.

"BRIGADIER SHOWERS' COLUMN.

" The force of about 1,200 from Detki, under
Brigadier Showers, occupied 1)odioo on the 16th of
October, taking six guns, and then being joined by
Cashmere troops took possession of Jhujjar, with 21
guns and much ammunition.

- " The Nawab surrendered himself. On the 20th
they seised Kaawood, cutting off 400 of the Nawab's
troops, and taking Ave lace of treasure.

" DELHI.

" There is no doubt that the King's life has bean
guaranteed. Re will be sent to Allahabad, foe con-
veyance to Calcutta. Particulate have been called
for.

" REWAIL

"The arrival of troops at Kuttro Pau put every-
thing at Rewah into the political agent's bands.
The Birders submitted, and gave up the prisoners
whom they had forcibly released. The Rajah
expressed extreme regret, and quiet was restored.
The political agent intends to return from the Camp
at Kuttro Pass to Rower. On the 26th the troops
were to march from the CUmp towards Cawnpme.

T I' YBDAT EllOTte.

A fresh fell in copper, and the dowiTivirelten-
dency of the metal markets generally, are features
adverse to the mining interest. The market for
home mining stocks was to-day extremely dull,
with little inquiry and less hemlines'. The prumipal
movement was in Wheal Basset shares, which have
fallen.

TEE POLICE COURTS.

MANSION-HOUSE.

W lam W Thompson traveller to the firm of Me n.
Imes and Co., of Ormeelturch-street, oil merchants, was
brought before the Lord Mayor, charged with having em-
bezzled several sums of money amounting to upwards
of 2,0001.
The Lost Mayer—l remand Lim till to-morrow week; and
I cannot order the money found in the pusession of the
lemur to be returned to him. It appears to me that bet-
ting which hes bean cm wmany occasions proved to be the
ruin of persons of the ChM to which the prisoner belongs,
has been the destruction of the young man at the bar. It is
quite Impossible that any lees severe penalty could result
from so dreadful a practice.
Tbs Owner was then remanded.
SOUTRWARK.

The two eolonred girls who were first brought to this court
on the charge of begging in the streets, and who stated that
they were fugitive eleven from America, attended to beer the
result of en investigation into the truth of their story which
ban been recently undertaken by the Mendicity Society.
Mr. Farguaos, the chief clerk of the society, eared that
the elder girl was living with a black man in Crown-court,
Wentworth-street, and the younger with en Irishwoman,
said to be her mother. The father of the younger had been
found in Chelan workhouse, where she often visited him, end
let money for him. A letter hed been received from
Orono* at which port the girls had stated that they
arrived is a vowel named the Jane. forming Mr. Tergurson
that en vessel of that name had been in Greenock for 18
months. . . . . . .

The younger girl denied that she had ever bean at the
Cheieraworkhouse, but the porter, maisteat porter, and stem-
keeper, having more to the contrary
Mr. Burchein said they had grossly deceived both tho pub-
lie end himself. There had been several sums of money
sent to him by benevolent person*, and they had likewise
received a small sum weekly during the inverdigation, but
sow they would hare no more, as he was of opinion that they
did not deserve it. According to the het:tummy before him,
the younger gel ass clearly an impostor, and there could be
little doubt that they were both to. and that the old woman
heed on their collections. The public would DO doubt be
made aware of the circumstances through the medium of the
prow, and the roaidue of the funds iu hand gentler their use
would either be forwarded to them, through application to
Kr. Edwin, the elder clerk, or it could be applied to the usia
of the poor box, lie told the girls to leave the court, dad
mind they were not taken Into custody fur begging. If they
were, they would be punished severely.
Tile girls then left the court very much dejected.
The magistrate requeete them, benevolent persons who
sent thew money, to inform him as soon cc passible how it
should be applied.

MURDER OP A BOY IN NOTIINGHAN FOREST.

NOTTINGHAM, BATT ADAY.
On Thursday evening last the son of Mr. Atkin-
son, machine builder, Reldgh-sonnet, Nottingham,
in.brig
eight years of age was miming from his home. A
was made, placards printed describing his person, end every
means used to discover him. All that woe known of the
affair until Friday evening wee that on Thursday evening be
strayed with a playmate to the neighbourhood of the Ar-
boretum. About six o'clock a man, having the appearance of
a gipay, went up to them and asked Atkumon's playfellow
which was the road to Bamford, a village two roles distant,
saying that if he would show him the way he
would give him ten shillings. The boy answered
that he did not know the way, but Atkinson replied that
he did, and that he would accompany him. Atkinson
then left his playfellow and went with the man. Nothing
was seen of the boy until six o'clock on Friday evening. At
this time a number of children were playing in the forest,
when one of them got over the hedge of en adjoining field,
end discovered the dead body of Atkbam. The lad mime-
diately gave en ahem, and the discovery was oommunicatid
to pulionconetable Iledetinann, who was woe the spot at
the time. Upon examination of the body it woe found that
from macho of veuipicasion on the neck, and the appearance
of the mouth and nostrils, the boy bad been strangled.
There were also marks of violence on one side of the body,
ea though he bed bean knelt upon. The lad's boots had
been taken of has feet, and it appears that foe this paltry
purpose the murder bad bivn committed ; that the fellow's
offering the boy Ioe. was merely to decoy him to a lonely spot
for the purpose of committing a robbery. The pollee ere
making every exertion for the apprehension of the mureleger.
An inquest upon the body was held this afternoon, firth,.
Lumley Castle, Ison•groen, before Mr. Coroner Swann, and
adjourned for a week.

THE MURDER IN LEIGH WOODS, BRISTOL.

MINOT OP THI AIM

On Saturday 11,1;741jo;neelingnmii on the body of
the female found murdered in Leigh Woods wee rammed-and
concluded before Mr. Fry, the coroner for Somerset.
Mr. Rudd Lucas, surgeon, deposed to having made &post-
mortem examination of the body, and mid, on removing the
deceased's hair he found a scar recently healed, about 2I
niches in length, on the upper part of the right side of the
herid.On taking off the scalp he found a wound in the bone
correaponiling with the bullet mark, and afterwards found a
ballet of a email sire in the left orbit; it was extracted, and
weighed 3il grains and a half. Itwearatheraslogthaztabullet.
The bullet had pawed into a small portion of the base of the
I brain. The jugular vein on the right side was divided.
Three of her teeth, extracted from the upper jaw, had been
Mopped with some metallic substance. The wounds in the
throat caused death. The wounds front the pistol would not
necessarily have done so. There was no appearance of any
ring on the fingers having been forcibly torn off. She was
apparently about 25 years of age, and a married woman.
A man named Powell desired to see the body, as he had
eons many miles to do so, as his daughter Charlotte had left
home six weeks, and had never sines teen hoard of. Ile wak
permitted to do no, but returned, saying it was not hie child.
The coroner put it to the jury whether they would ad-
journ, but by a chow of hands they decided to finish the in-
quiry, and they ultimately returned a verdict, That the
unknown deceased was wilfully murdered by some person or
parsons unknown."

BIIAUGULPORE.

The following is an extract of a letter from
Bhaugnlpore (on the route between Bashampore and Dina-
pore) dated 2nd August, 1857 :
tt For the past two or three days there has been Dome sort
of a Fair here, and steamers have been detained, as it wan ex-
pected that the Sowers of the bth Irregular Cavalry would
prove troublesome on hearing of the defection of the native
troop, at Dinapere.
" A hundred aoldiere were landed yesterday from the
Henan' for the protection of the station, and with there men
to back us valiant., we are perfectly sale."

BENGAL

The following narrative of events has been pre-
pared by order of the Government at Calcutta :

The narrative transmitted by the mail on the 21st ult.
contained the news received up to that date.

AOttA.—A letter from the Lieutenant-Governor, dated
June 30, accompanying, gives the occurrences in the north-
wax provinces up to that date. Last news up to July 19.
The tort in etill occupied, and tranquillity has been restored
in the city and cantonments. On the dth of July SOO of the
3rd Regiment, with the European Hume Battery, moved out
to attack the Meerut mutiniers. Two ammunition waggons
blew up, and want of ammunition compelled the troops to re.
tire, which we. done in an orderly manner. Tho result was
the removal of the troops into the fort, when the Europwin
inhabitant. had already been amembled. The Agra govern-
ment has been desired to open a communication daily with
Delhi, en well a. with Cawnpure. Lieutenant-Colonel Cot-
ton wen directed to take command of the troep.l superseding
Brigadier I'ulwleele.
At LAHANAD.—Supplies of all kinds collecting fast.
Country tranquil, and order restored here a• well as in the
neighbourhood. Au entennive entrenchment is being muds
under the &realms of Captain YttlP, of the Engineer.. The
country have provided abundant supplies of all kind., which
are being dosed for the troop. expected.

A;;;Zx "
irizinoutit.—The mutiny of the 12th Irregular Cavalry
at Segoeiee compelled the Aringhur party to abandon that
place a second time. The troops had previously had some
mggaa~gaammmmta with insurgents and Madha Perused. The
dcrachment of the 12th irregular Cavalry on duty at Azin-
gime deserted on hesting.of the mutiny of the head.quartas
of the corm but did no injury to their officers. Five
hundred Gomithaa have been ordered to this place, bat had
not arrived.

Bannaciroaz (Fort William).—Nothing remarkable.
There scia a orrnsiderable panic mating the inhabitants of Cal-
cutta at the time of the Bukoareed which, however, passed
off quite quietly. The body guard have had their arma,
lodged in the areenal. Two regiments of Madras N. I. have
reocbed Calcutta, and are about to be despatched, one to
DMapure by steam, the other Op tho Truck-road. One
hundred European infantry and a detachment of 120 Sikhs

NIZANI'S TERRITORY.

The following is from the Madras Spectator. No
slight interest now attaches to the quarter to which it
relates:—

" We have another letter from Secunderabad, and although
it does not contain anything that is new, it is of sufficient
interest to induce us to lay its oontemts before our madam
It commences by stating that there was no end of a Mb' in
santonments on Friday the 17th (July) instant. Early in
the morning everybody was warned to keep in the lines, the
reason being only known to the staff and a privileged few.
In the evening the appointed signal, three gun., were fired in
quick succession, being immediately followed by bugle and drum
sierras. Then came a rush of carrieges and riders from the
band stand, each and all at a tremendous pace, to the several
parade grounds, after which the various corps marched to the
general paradeground opposite the Arsenal. Shortly afterward,
Brigadier Coffin and staff rode up, and ordered off the Grenadier
I smpany of the gallant 3rd Europeans under command of
Captain Dysart, in poet baste towards Chudderagbant, for
the protection of the Residency, together with the F troop
Home Artillery and the 7th Cavalry ; Intelligence having
been received that a large body of Rohillehe had made a dash on
the Residency. Those latter were Interrupted in their amuse-
ment by a little grape shot from the Horse Artillery guns,
when they made a clear bolt of it, leaving some seven of their
number behind them. It is thought that upwards of 25 of
the Rehillaha were killed, but so these fellows invariably
mike it a point to carry away their dead, it is almost impos-
sible to god out the enact number they lose. The troop of
the 2nd Cavalry Hyderabad Contingent, which was on wised
at the Reedency, also behaved moat gallantly during
the whole affair. The conduct of the Resealse wee
so conspicuous, exposing himself as he did to find
out all that was going on, that it is understood the
Resident Las reeolved to promote him. It is said that the
Robilliths, had they been successful in their attack on the Reel •
dewy, intended to have proceeded to Bolarum, to rescue the
mutineers of the let Devilry in confinement there, awaiting
trial. During the row at the Residency, many people rushed
in from Chudderagbaut to Securiderstad, bringing reports
that every Veriest., tad been slaughtered. The hospital
of the 3rd Europeans that same evening wee filled with
ladies who fled there for shelter, and each sick man had Lie
=Meet given to him, with sixty rounds of ball ammunition.
At Bolarum also, on the nights of the 17th and 18th, strong
guards of cavalry and infantry wore posted at all important
points, so that had the liohilliths ventured there, they would
hare found all prepared to give these a very warm re-
ception."

SPAIN.

MADRID, Barr. 19
A governmental order permits the free import of
cereals up to the month of July.
The 11,gas announces that the Cortes will meet in
October.

A letter of the 16th, in the Courrier de Paris,
saya:—" The ministry eat meet et Bien Inert. We
are altogether in a provisional state. It is possible
that the Cabinet may prolong its death agony for a
week or two, but its time is past. It is generally
thought that it will not hold out till the meeting of
the Cartes."

The Dutch frigate, Van Vasenon, 45 guns, had
arrived in the port of Barcelona, to attend the
Prince of Orange.
-- - •

The ministerial crisis in Spain is cousidered to be
extremely serious b 7 the Pays, which describes the
Narvaez cabinet as in a chronic state of resignation.
The " moderates" appear to be definitively estranged
from Nervier, and the Ficelvarist generals are not
inclined to prolong their truce with him any longer.
It I. doubted whether he can possibly hold on till
the Cortes meets. This defalcation from Narvaer of
a French government organ, which has hitherto
supported him, is very significant.

THE NEW BANE AT CONST,

The following is the Mikisl project for the forma-
tion of a National Imperial Bank at Constantinople,
accepted by Mr. Wilkins, on behalf of a company of
English capitalists:
. . .

The Imperil government desires to establish, exclusively
privileged for 30 yaw., an Imperial National Bank, with •
capital of from 10,000,0001. to 12,000,0001. sterling, about
8,000,0001. of which shall were as a reserve for the
use of the Government and its authorities in propottiens
to bn officially stated, and the rest for the affairs of Agri-
, culture, &c.
11 The bank will be &instituted as nearly so possible upon
the model of the Banks of Fresco and England.

The reweessioNtsaines abalt engage to open subectiption
Ws in Englimd, France, Germany, and Turkey, end to
leave them open tor the name time and on the name eon&
eons in each country.

The maximum of interest which this bank will be en-
titled to receive from the Imperial government for all the
rweemary advances required for the monetary reform speci-
fied in the first article shall not mooed 8 per cent. per annum,
and it understood that these advances shall be made at par
and withent discount.

The Governor of thi. Beak, sad idea a limited number of
the dinettes, shall be appointed by the Imperial Goren-
nest, sad the yen of the directors elected by the enbscribers
he propottita to the sobecriptioas taken in each of the above-
niestiamed countries.

A deposit of 200,000 f. diet* shell be made by the oft-
carimmira to tire. es • peerages for the mention of the
enteepriee.

Tie Beak met commence business within eix month' at
Were tretethe Woe of the Imperial Finnan.

Late advice, from Constantinople state the names
of the applicants, represented by Mr. Wilkins, to be
as follows :--Sir Joseph Paxton, M.P., Messrs. Cay-

SPAIN.

The Madrid journals of the Bth have arrived. It
appears from them that the government had taken
serious offence against General Prim (Count de Rem),
for having, in a letter to a friend at Barcelona, made
"grave accusations" against the authorities of that
city, and it had accordingly ordered him to proceed
to Toledo, and to remain there until the Supreme
Tribunal of War and Merino should decide on the
case. According to the Iberia, however, the general
had received orders to go not to Toledo but to Cadiz,
and he was to be " transported" from that port to
the Canaries. In the letter which has given offence,
and which was published in the Iberia, General
Print refers to recent arrests of certain of his friends
at Barcelona, observing, " Wherefore this step,
since after four-and-twenty hours they restored you
all to liberty! Did they wish to show their strength
by maltreating the flower and the elite of the landed
proprietors ? The measure was not only capri-
cious, insolent, and brutal, but it was stupid also,
since it has resulted first in the union of the liberals,
and secondly in provoking general indignation."
Cleueral Blamer, the only ex-minister of 1864 who
had remained in exile, was about to return to
Madrid. In addition to Valencia, a state of siege
exists in Granada, Catalonia, and part of Aragon.

August, 1836, la only 8 per cent. The exports fbr
the eight months, however, art BM 13 per cent. in
excess of those for the corresponding eight months
of last year. A comparison with the figures
for the year 1855 shows an • increase of
30 per cent. on the mouth, and of 40 per cent. on the
eight months. Although the ratio of increase, from
month to month, is scarcely maintained, these
figures indicate that the export trade continues on
the whole very extensive. The consumption of most
articles of foreign and colonial produce also continues

that the duties of the commander-in.chief can be most effi-
ciently and most usefully di-charged at the seat of govern-
ment. But if the Governor-General in Council thinks other-
wise, and considers that my prcsence at wane other point
