INDIA AND CHINA

We ( Times) received, at 4 o'clock this morning,
by express from Marseilles, our dispatches in antici-
pation of the Overland Mail, which left Calcutta on
the 16th and Bombay on the 20th ult. Our latest
dates from China are to the 7th of June. The fol-
lowing are extracts from our Bombay correspon-
dence :--

"The Burmese are busy fortifying positions be-
tween Meeaday and their capital. The most
southern of these posts is commanded by Meatoon,
and, being situated close to Meeaday, has been re-
connoitred by some_of our light steamers. It is said
that Meatoon boasts his intention of driving us
into the sea, and that the Burmese Government
have still faith in, his promises.
"The papers last published by Parliament on
the subject of the Burmese war have surprised us
much in India, by showing that our energetic
Governor-General, rather than General Godwin,
is the person answerable for the Fabian conduct of
the war. It appears that Lord Dalhouse considered
it more conducive to the prestige of our arms and
more expedient in all respects to stand on the de-
fensive in Pegu than advance on the Burmese
capital, merely to abandon it. He states that such
an advance would be very expensive, and that its
only fruit would be a treatywith a barbarian Power,
whose treaties were no security for peace and not
worth a reed on which they are written, and that
the retrogression consequent on such an advance
would be prejudicial to the character of our arms
in the eyes of the adjacent States.

" The line of policy Lord Dalhousie has adopted
—an armed cessation of hostilities—he corsidered
was the one most conducive to the prestige of our
arms and the economy of life and treasure,
" But this course has certainly not led to the
results he anticipated ; the regular troops in Bur-
mah, instead of being reduced to 5,000,. continue

from the climate ; the-last brought news of t
death of Colonel Coote and three other office,

arid of the serious indisposition 'of Commodore
'Lambert. By the latest accounts the Burmese
were evidently anticipating the advance of our
troops' en. Ava, and all their measures were for
defence '; but they will soon learn Lord Dalhousi4's
intentions from the Indian papers, and it is to be
h?ped -they will misconstrue the motives of our for-
' hearance, and invade our new provinces sufficiently
,early in the rainy season to enable .us to avail our-
Selves of the Irrawaddy as a high road to the capi-
tal. It might not be worth our while to retain the
northern provinces of the Burmese Empire ; but
our allies, the Rajah of Alunipore and the King 'of
Siam; would thankfully accept any territories *e
considered it inexpedient to annex.
"Th- f China is of increasin- '

news from of _ ig interest.
The intelligence sent home by the last mail was
most contradictory, even at Shanghai, and so late
as the sth of _May nothing certain was known re-
garding the progress of the rebels. Insurgent pro-
clamations had indeed been received, stating that
on the 31st of March our Emperor established
the seat of his Government at Nankin, having
thoroughly slaughtered the Manchoo thieves, not
leaving a dog or a fowl remaining ;' and, accord-
ing to another account, the city had been taken
by the rebels on the 21st of March (the discrepancy
being probably due to the Chinese reckoning by
the lunar month) • but other accounts stated that,
though Nankin had fallen temporarily into the
limas of the insurgents, it had been immediately
recaptured by the Imperialists, who had pursued
the rebels and signally defeated them with great
loss some .miles to the southward. A fourth ac-
count stated that Nankin had not fallen at all.
Another alleged insurgent proclamation annoinced
the rebels' intention of marching immediately
against the stinking foreigners at Shanghai, who
are not worthy to be considered men.' On this
the said 'foreigners organized themselves into a
militia for self-defence, and Sir G. Bonham pro-
,naised, as a matter of course, to assist them ; but
.he replied to the requisition of the local native
authorities for assistance, that he would re-
serve. to; himself the right to determine the course
that should be pursued when the circumstances
intervention wp ~before,
.'-- It siffra that The -lime
potentiary, as far as he could, was assisting the
Imperialists. The American steam-frigate Susque-
hanna was sent up the Yang-tse-Kiang for the pro-
tection of Nankin, but from her size she was un-
able to get up so far, and returned without effect-
ing anything. Meanwhile the greatest uncertainty
continuing to prevail at Shanghai, Sir G. Bonham
resolved to obtain accurate information for him-
self, and accordingly made a trip up the Yang-tse-
Kiang in her Majesty's steamship Hermes. He
remained five days at Nankin in communication
with the insurgents (whom he found had been in
possession of the city for more than a month), and
returned to Shanghai on the sth of May. The
Hermes brought back the astounding intelligence,'
says the North China Herald, that the insurgents
were Christians of the Protestant form of worship
and anti-idolators of the strictest order—not merely
formal professors of a religious system, but practi-
cal, spiritual Christians, deeply influenced by the
belief that God is always with them.' They
treated Sir G. Bonham the interpreter to the Con-
sulate, Mr. Meadows, with every respect and con-
sideration, and in a walk of 10 miles through their
camp the latter did not hear one of those abusive
and derogatory epithets applied to himself or
companions which have always been so liberally
bestowed on passing foreigners by the heathen
Chinese.

" The insurgents had evidently abundance of
money, and were busy strengthening themselves
in their new acquisitions. The Hong Kong Register
objects to Sir G. Bonha,m's visit to the rebel head-
quarters, and to his holding conference with their
chiefs (though even only for the purpose of ex-
plaining to them that he intended to remain
neutral), as a moral backing of their cause—in-
compatible with his profession of strict neutrality,
of which the insurgents cannot fail to take advan-
tage, and of which the Imperialist Government
may justly complain. The same paper ridicules
the idea of the practical Christianity of the insur-
gents ; it has long been notorious that several
Chinese who bad received a missionary education
were among the rebel leaders ; and, with the know-
ledge that the English and Americans were Pro-
testant Christians, some of these were probably
put forward as samples with a view to impose on
the British Plenipotentiary and to enlist the sym-
pathies of English and American Christians.
" It, however, appears certain that there is a
good deal of professed Christianity among the in-
surgents. When the late Dr. Gutzlaff was last in
Europe a native Chinese society he had formed,
called the ' Christian Union,' was broken up, and
many of its members are known to ho among the
leaders of the present movement. The Hong Kong
Register states, that at the late interview at Nankin
one of the rebel leaders made mention of Dr. Hob-
son, of the London Missionary Society at Canton,
and said that in his hospital, when under medical
treatment, he had first heard of Christianity.
The Hong Kong Register allows that ' no one
can say what amount of Christianity may
be in their ranks, but concludes the prac-
tical Christianity exhibited by the rebel
leaders at Nankin to have been assumed, because
there was wild fanaticism and extravagant im-
posture to be found among them. Their leader,
Tae-ping-wang, ' the Prince of Peace,' claims a
sort of divine origin and mission, and has constant
revelations from angels, like Mahomet, whom he
morever exceeds in the article of wives—at least
so says the Hong Kong Register—which also ridi-
cules him for having added a codicil to the seventh
commandment, forbidding the use of tobacco and
opium. The same paper is, however, constrained
to admit that ' the proceedings of these men have
been of a wonderful character, and if success which
has gone along with them to a point we never con-
templated or dreamt of, still follows them till they
succeed in subverting the present Government, the
change will be one of the greatest wonders of
the age.
" Long before Sir G. Bonham's visit to Nankin
it was believed by many that at least a large pro-
portion of the rebel leaders were Christians.
Several Christian proclamations had appeared pro-
fessing to emanate from the new Emperor, but it
was objected that these were probably orgeries,
got up by some of the Christians known to be
among them.
"The vessels of the United States Japan squadron
are assembling in the harbour of Shanghai. The
principal and evident object of the expedition is the
establishment of American settlements and coaling
stations in the China Seas, for the protection
and encouragement of their rapidly increasing
Eastern trade ; the experience of European natives

has shown them that such settlements may be
sources of direct profit, as well as of strength.
When we restored the island of Java to the Dutch,
it yielded us a surplus revenue of 1,000,0001. ster-
ling. The comparative scantiness of the• native
American population of the-United States is no ob-
stacle to the formation or maintenance of such set-
tlements. The number of Anglo-Saxon officials
and officers we 'employed in governing Java did
not probably exceed 403 or 500, and the Americans
could embody and organise whatever Irish or native
troops were required for the protection of such set-
tlements as readily, and probably much more eco-
nomically and efficiently, than ourselves.
" Had the American steam-ship Susquehannali
been able to ascend the Yang-tse-liang, Nankin
might have been saved to the Imperialists, and the
fate of China possibly changed. This circumstance
would seem to point out the utility of attaching as
tenders to large vessels of war employed in coast
operations small iron steamers of little draught,
able to sail or steam, like the Nemesis. This use-
ful class of steam-vessels has been hitherto alto-
gether neglected in the English and American na-
vies. The present position of affairs in China ren-
ders it more than ever desirable that the Burmese
war should be brought to an immediate termina-
tion, and the naval force now employed in the Ir-
rav addy thereby rendered available for the protec-
tion of British interests in China. It is, moreover
evident that the opium revenue of the Indian Go-
vernment can no longer be considered a permanent
source of income, and that it therefore becomes
essential to devise some means for diminishing,
commensurately, the expenses of the East India
Company's administration of Great Britain.

" In the overland summary taken home by this
mail there will be found three petitions to Parlia-
ment, two from Bombay and one from Madras,
praying that no permanent legislation regarding
India may be entered into without the fullest in-
-ligation ha- tak - -

by the native chairman explaining to the meet'-
ing the object of the , petition. ,He reminded his
hearers that , the English. Ministry had proposed
to legislate for India forthwith, though' only one
of the eight heads into which the, inquiry .had
been divided ,had as yet been gorte' through;
and that to this' One, which ein braced only the
home and local agencies for administrating , the
government, Lord Aberdeen intended. . to con.-
tine the whole of his legislation, leaVing the
revenue and judicial system and all the . other
• evils coMplained of ,in their previous Tpetitions
to . continue as they are for the period of the
renewed charter ;—that a. modification. of • these
administrative . agencies was of course extremely
desirable, but that that alone would produceno
change in the internal management of the 'country;
and that, unless the grievances they complained of
were thoroughly investigated, and their redress
specifically ordered by the Imperial Parliament,
the local Governments, left to themselves would
refuse investigation, deny their existence, and con-
tinue them in perpetuity ; that it theiefore behoved
them' again to petition, Parliament against the
Prime Minister's resointion,, and to beg that no
permanent legislation might be entered into with-
out the fullest . investigation having., previously
taken place, and to urge the necessity of a royal
commission of inquiry in India, in order that they.
might have the opportunity of?_ proving the truth
of their complaints, and also to,repeat their prayer
for the reconstitution of the 'lndian Government
on the model of that Ceylon.

the many and heavy grievances and disabilities
under which all the Queen's subjects who are not
members of the privileged 'service labour. They
therefore respectfully request that a Royal com-
mission may be appointed, before whom they may
have the opportunity of proving the facts advanced
in their former petition. They adduce as a prece-
dent for such local commissions the appointment in
1814 of the one of which Sir T. Munro was the
head, for the purpose of inquiring into and amend-
ing the judicial system then obtaining. They com-
plain of their exclusion from all places of trust
and responsibility in their own country, and of all
such places being monopolised by a small privileged
and exclusive service, composed of foreigners who
take no interest whatever in the welfare of the
country they govern and whose members, more-
over, admitted to be no better educated, or other-
wise qualified for such appointments, than them-
selves. They also state, that they are deeply hu-
miliated, and deeply aggrieved, at the unjust dis-
tinctions made between themselves and her
Majesty's other colonial subjects. And the petition
concludes with a prayer that a Royal commission
—composed of Europeans and natives conjointly,
chosen partly in Europe and partly in India—may
be issued to enter upon and complete the necessary
investigation in this country. Four or five natives
having spoken in illustration of some of the specific
grievances complained of, the petition was put to
the meeting and unanimously adopted. It is now
in course of general signature, and will go home by
the next mail."

"At Shanghai the transactions in imports had
been trifling. Two vessels had left with full car-

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.
THE BOMBAY MARKET.
MONDAY, June 20.
We can offer a few remarks on the present state of the
market, as all transactions are closed, owing to the set-
ting in of the rains, which are most favourabla, and the
few sales which take place cannot be considered as
ruling generally. We therefore merely quote these
sales, which are—gray madapoliams, 4,500 pieces, at
2r. 24a. to 2r. 3a. ; gray shirtings, of 40-inch, 1,600
pieces, at 3r. 31a. to 4r. 13a. ; of 45 and 50-inch, 4,550
pieces, at sr. 7a. to Or. Ba. per piece ; gray long-cloths,
250 pieces, at 3r. 12a. ; gray cambric, 1,000 pieces, at
3r. 14a. ; gray jacconets of 40-inch, 1,400 pieces, at lr.
13a. to 2r. ; white jacconets, SQO pieces, at 2r. la. ;
white shirting, 1,000 pieces, at Sr. to 6r. Ba.
Water and mule twist are merely nominal in value,
the season being over ; however, 460 bales have been
taken on speculation at low figures ; 20 bales of orange
yarns, No. 40 to 60, have also been sold at 111 a. per
lb., but no sales have had effect ; in Turkey red yarns
all the cotton is now stored ; the stock is large, but the
price is maintained at 108 r. for Broach, Jumbooseer, and
Surat, 105 r. for Dhollerah, 96r. to 98r. for Comptah,
98r. to 100 r. for Oumrawutty cotton. Some arrivals
have taken place of Backara and Mocha coffee—the
first sold at 9r, to lOgr. ; the latter is held for 9irs. to
91 r.

-Freights, after going very low, are now rather im-
proving, as some large engagements have been made at
2/. per ton to Liverpool, and 2/. 15s. to London. To
China some engagements are made at 10r. to Hr. per
candy.

Exchange has remained very steady at 2s. lid. per
rupee, the rate ranging from 2s. 1 3-16 d. to 2s. 17-16 d.
for best bills at six months' sight on London.

CALCUTTA MARKET.
THURSDAY, June 16.
The Madras steamer arrived on the morning of the
14th inst., bringing London dates to the 9th of May.
The commercial intelligence is more satisfactory than it
was on the last occasion.

Rain has fallen generally in Bengal, but our advices
from the indigo districts are still unsatisfactory, and the
prospects of the crop, owing to the advanced period of
the season, continue uncertain. The shipments of indigo
up to the 4th inst. amount to 25,962 chests, containing
fy. mds. 97,732, of which 14,391 chests have gone to
Great Britain and 8,120 to France.

A moderate business only has been done in sugar ;
stocks are, however, light. Vacuum pan sorts continue
in good demand, at an advance on qualities suitable for
Australia. The market is yet but sparingly supplied
with saltpetre, and that of inferior quality. The reduc-
tion in the rates of freight have had the effect of increas-
ing the exports of rice to a small extent. Safflower re-
mains without change ; the shipments of this dye to
Great Britain from the opening of the season to date
amount to 2,642 mds. The report of the victorious pro-
