The greatly increasing p3pulation, the commerce, the pastoral,
and agilcultural riches of the colonies of New South Wales and Vic-
toria, the great success of the banks already established in Sydney,
Melbourne, and Geelong, together with the extraordinary yield of
the gold mines of these colonies, justly warrant the establishment o f
a New Australian Bank, with branches in such towns as may appear
expedient.
it has therefore been proposed to form a new banking association,
to be entitled the Royal Australian Banking and Gold Importing
Company, to be incorporated tinder a Royal Charter.
The capital to be 250,0001., in 50,000 shares of 5/. each,
on which a deposit of I/. each shall be paid, and no further call to be
made until the Royal Charter shall have been obtained, and not
then, except by A reeolution agreed to by a majority at a general
meeting of Shareholders, to be called together for that purpose, by:
three regular advertisements in the'" Times," and 'three other Lon-
don daily newspapers.
The proposed Company intend to establish an office in London
for the purpose of regulating and directing the general affairs of
the Company, and to open a Bank at Sydney, with branches at
Melbourne, and. If expedient, at Geelong, and other populous towns.
The bank and the branches to carry on the ordinary business of
banking by discounting bills, issuing notes underthe provisions granted
by Charter, advancing money on undoubted security, and also
on consignment of gold ore and refined gold to the. Company in
London; and purchasing gold in the colonies of New South Wales
and Victoria, together with the transaction of such other business
as they be safely and legitimately conducted by a Bank. To avoid
losses by fraud or neglect of duty, the managers, and all persons ap-
pointed by the Bank, will have to give competent security in England
for their fidelity and good conduct in those colonies.
A great part of the above capital being already subscribed, the
Royal Charter has been applied for, and is under consideration of
the Board of Trade, and the Deed of Settlement will be completed
when the remaining shares are subscribed, and the deposit of 11.
per share paid to the bankers.
Applications for shares and prospectuses can now be received
only from the country, which must be made on or before
Monday, the 19th inst., at the offices of the Company,
moorgate-
street, or of Messrs. Field, Son, and Wood, Warnford-court, Throg-

NATIONAL ASSURANCE AND
INVESTMENT ASSOCIATION,
7, St. Martin's-place, Trafalgar-square, London.
The investment of money with this Association, which was
established in May, 1844, on a plan peculiar to itself, secures equal
advantages to the surplus capital of the affluent, and the provident
savings of the industrial classes of the community, and affords an
opportunity for realising the highest rate of interest yielded by first-
class securities, in which alone the money is employed.
Moneys deposited with the Association, for Investment, are
exempt from liabilities on account of life contingencies, as well as
the expenses of management, which are borne by the Life Depart-
ment, in consideration of the business brought to it by investment
transactions ; therefore, Depositors enjoy the entire profits yielded
by their capital free from deduction of any kind—an advantage
which no other Institution, either public or private, holds forth, or
can afford, to its members.
Interest or Dividend, is payable half-yearly, in January and July.
Capital Stock, £lOO,OOO.
The Capital Stock is altogether distinct and separate from the
Depositors' Stock in the Investment Department. It constitutes,
with the Premium Fund, a guarantee for the engagements of the
Association, and has been provided in order to render the security of
the Assured complete.
LIFE DEPARTMENT.

This Department embraces a comprehensive and well-regulated
system of Life Assurance, with many valuable and important im-
provements.
Fall information and prospectuses may be obtained, on application
at the Head Office of the Association, or to the respective &gents,
throughout the United Kingdom.

LONDON, FRIDAY SUN 7 JULY 16, 1852.

INDIA AND CHINA.

We have received our letters and papers in anticipa-
tion of the overlandamail. The dates of the advices by
this arrival are—Calcutta, •Juno 2; Bombay, June 5;
and Madras, June 10. ,
The following is' a summary of a correspondent at
Bombay:—
" Oar latest accounts from Rangoon extend to the
14th of May. The heat had been terrible, but the rains
were commencing. Cholera had almost disappeared, and
the trOops were generally in good health. The Burmese
had made no further.attempt, to molest them. The river
had been reconnoitred in the direction of Promo by the
smaller Steamers of the flotilla, and found to be too
shalloW at this (che driest) season of the year, to admit
of the passage of any but • flat-bottomed boats. The
principal result of the reconnoissnce was the discovery
of the whereabouts of the late Governor of Rangoon, and
the capture of his state yacht, together with her escort
of boats ancl_a considerable amount of other property.
The flotilla of the Governor of Della was also taken; it
contaitieek some of the ladfee of his family, and a con-
siderable amount of treasure.
-` On the 7th, four steamers and about 500 troops,
under Colonel Apthorpe, -were seen to beat up the ex-
Gevet;ades -quarters., -They came in sight of him at
Mumbee, a place seven miles inland from a point on the
river about 40 miles above Rangoon; be had about
1,500 men with him, and a considerable amount of
baggage;, the latter, with 'three old umbrellas, was
eaptured;but the Governor escaped i gnto.the jungle, and
the troops were so exhausted,
and the heat so terrible,-
that pursuit was out of the Several men were
struck dead by the sun.
" General' Godwin - wit a strong detachment of

for a few days for atm purpose of reducing Bassein, a 1
town which giv,-s its made to the westernmost branch
of the Irrawaddy Delta;` to the east of Rangoon, the
Peguese had risen on the Burmese levies and driven
them out of the country, and they were said to have ap-
plied to us for aid' to prevent their return. The most
contradictory rumours were afloat regarding the Burmese
policy. By one account the King of Ava is dead, and
all is anarchy at his capital. By another, he is alive,
but has been kept by - the Governor of Rangoon in
total ignorance or all that has occurred; and a third
report is to the effect that he has written a warlike
letter to General Godwin, and has dispatched his
brother-in-law from Ave with 20,000 troops to drive the
Eoglish into the sea. All that regards the future is at
present the merest surmise, but in the best-informed
quarters the chances are considered in favour of a set-
tlement being effected without the necessity of any fur-
ther military operations.- Should these, however, be un-
avoidable. two European regiments, her Majesty's 86th
and the 2d Bombay Europeans, with a troop of Horse
Artillery, will probably be sent from Bombay, and three
or four Native Infantry regiments, either from that pre-
sidency or trona Calcutta, a sufficient number of the
volunteered for service

the artillery, but whether he was a European or Armenian
could not be discerned. The number of Burmese bayoneted
shows how bravely the Burmese remained at their posts.
Their loss is calculated at 800. The gunnery from the ships
was terrific and most effectual ; considering our small
numbers, our loss is considerable too. The officers of the
51st were wounded. Major Errington, commanding the
whole party, was struck in the thigh by a spent round shot.
Captain Rice and Lieutenant Carter were wounded. the lat-

of that regiment was killed and 11 wounded. Of the little
body of 18 gallant Sappers under Lieutenant Ford, though
they were in the thick of it, not one was touched. A gallant
captain of the 51st had the greater part of one of his
whiskers carried away by the roots. Fifty-eight pieces of
cannon, ranging from 3 to 24 pounders, and upwards of 20
jingals were taken, and an immense number of war boats
were sunk and burnt. While the military were at work
on the right, the naval brigade landed on the left, and took

" Sir Colin Campbell is carrying on Clittle campaign
in the valley ot the Swat river (the principal northern
affluent ot that of Caboul), with about 4,000 troops and
ten guns. The force has had some severe hand-to-hand
fighting, in which both officers and men have behaved
with distinguished gallantry. On the 13th the hill fort
of Pranghur, on the threshold of the valley, was
stormed. On the 17th the enemy came down in force
into the Rineezad valley to attack us. On the 13th Sir
C. Campbell moved forward and attacked them. They
stood their ground well for some time, but at length
gave way and ficd, leaving 130 dead bodies on the field.
Sir C. Campbell intended to march into Swat on the
23d of May. His force was not expected to return to
camp for some time. _

" the news from Cabral is important. Herat has for
some time been in dispute between the son of Yar Ma-
homed, backed by the Persians, and the Kandaharee
Sirdars, backed by Dost Mahoraed. 10,000 Persian
troops were on their way to assist Yar Mahomed's
sun, and Dost Mohamed had dispatched his own
son, Gholam Hyder, with a large body of troops,
to the assistance of the Kandaharee faction. The
factions, however, joined battle Without wait-
ing for the arrival.. of their respective allies. The
Herattee army. under Yar Mahomed's son, numbered
12,000 or 13,000, the Kandaharee force rather less.
After eight hourb' fighting, the latter were defeated,
with a loss of 2,000 men, and obliged to retreat to Kan-
dahar. On learning the result, both the Persian and
Affghan force halted for further orders. It may be
hoped, therefore, that a collision between them will be
avoided.

'' No improvement has taken place in the state of the
Nizam's territory.
"The public were startled the other day by the in-
formation that the King of Oude was preparing for war
with the British Government. It since appears that this
demonstration (which actually . occurred) is entirely to
be attributed to the King's insanity, end that his Ma-
jesty has now forgotton the hallucination.
" Calcutta, with the south and east of Bengal, was
