CALCUTTA PAPERS.

JAN. 11.—We hear that the Governor-Genera
in a few days intends to proceed by dawk on a tour
to the interior. His Lordship, we believe, will
quit the Presidency on the 18th inst. for Benares—
via Hazareebaugh, Gyah, and Patna,
accompanied by a very small suite, viz. his Lord-
ship's Military Secretary, Surgeon, and Aide-de-
Camp. It was understood that the Chief Justice
would accompany the Right Hon. the Governor-Ge-
neral to Benares.

JAN. 13.—The Right Hon. the Governor-Gene-
ral has appointed twelve o'clock on Saturday next
for the reception of the Addresses on the subject of
Widow-burning.
Head-quarters, Calcutta, Jan. 1.

General the Right Hon. the Earl of Dalhousie,
on assuming the command which has been intrusted
to him, desires to assure the army in India that he
is impressed with a high sense of its merit, and
that he fully appreciates the grounds on which its
reputation rests.
To maintain, if possible to improve its discipline,
and to cherish and keep alive every honourable feel-
ing by which it is distinguished, will be the object
of his constant ambition.

In his anxious endeavours to discharge the trust
committed to him, he relies on the exertions Of all
who are called on to act under his command, par-
ticularly on the zealous co-operation of the General
Officers in charge of divisions, or brigades of the
army, and of Officers commanding regiments.
His Excellency is pleased to direct that all re-
ports
and correspondence relative to his Majesty's
or the Hon. Company's forces shall be addressed, as
heretofore, to the different departments at head-
quarters.
All ordirs issued under the authority of his Ex-
cellency's predecessor, General the Right Hon.
Lord Combermere, are to remain in force, together
with such instructions as may have been issued by
his Lordship, for the guidance of the heads of de-
partments.
The Commander-in-Chief will receive the heads
of departments, or, during their unavoidable absence,
their deputies or assistants, on public business, from
eleven to two o'clock on any of the days of the
week, with the exception of Council days and Sun-
days. He will receive all other officers and persons
who may wish to see him on business, on Thursday,
after eleven o'clock.
In cases of emergency, the Commander-in-Chief
is to be seen at any time, without exception, day or
night.
His Excellency is pleased to make the following
appointments:—
Colonel the Hon. John Ramsay, his Majesty's
half-pay, to be Military Secretary.
Capt. Alexander M‘Lachlan, Royal Artillery ;
Lieut. Lord Ramsay, his Majesty's 26th Regiment;
Capt. John Byrne, his Majesty's 31st Regiment—to
be Aides-de-Camp.
Assistant-Surgeon D. Murray, M.D., his Ma-
jesty's IGth Lancers, to be Surgeons.
All honours and compliments which have hereto-
fore been paid to the Right 'Hon. Lord Viscount
Combermere are to be continued to his Excellency.
By Order of his Excellency the Commander-in-
Chief,

CHRIS. FAGAN, Adj.-Gen. of the Army.
The following commercial intelligence is from a
paper of the 12th :-1 he Company continue pur-
chasing indigo. The crop is not computed at more
than 120,000 maunds. Sales of European cotton
piece goods continue very dull, and mule twist is
without inquiry. All metals are exceedingly dull,
but particularly copper, of which article it is impos-
sible to effect sales. The price of beer continues on
the advance, but wines are a complete drug, from the
market being overstocked. Freight was scarce and
so low as 3/. per ton for dead weight, and 51. per
ton for light.
