OVERLAND MAIL

INDIA.

We have received by express from Marseilles our
dispatches in anticipation of the Overland Mail which
left Bombay on the 24th ult.

India continued to enjoy the moat perfect tranquil-
lity, and the monsoon was almost the only topic on
which the Indian newspapers could descant. This
year the rains have been later than usual in their
arrival, but they had fallen so copiously as to more
than compensate any delay in their recurrence.
The expected collision between Sir C. Napier and
Sir W. Gomm had come to pass. Sir W. Gomm
arrived in Calcutta from the Mauritius in the full
belief that he was to succeed Lord Gough as Com-
mander in-Chief, and then only learnt that the com-
mission he had anxiously expected was recalled, and
that his place had been taken by Sir C. Napier at
least a month before. In the mean time Sir Charles
Napier had not only been sworn in, but had assumed
all the duties of his station, and had set off to Simlah,
to take command of the army in the Punjaub.
It was believed that as Sir S. Cotton had already
tendered his resignation, Sir W. Gomm would find
consolation in the command of the forces in the
Bombay Presidency.
The Punjaub, upon which the attention not only of
India, but of England, has been so long concentrated,
scarcely supplies a single topic of intelligence. The
trial of the Dewan Moo]raj was still proceeding at
Lahore, and continued to excite considerable interest.
So far as the evidence had been heard, it was favour-
able to the Dewan, and tended to show great indis-
cretion and precipitancy in the unfortunate young
men—Lieutenants Agnew and Anderson—in whose
murder the war originated.
At Moultan, the breaches in the defence made
during the siege had been completely repaired, under
the able superintendence of Major Scott ; but
very few of the native merchants had returnd, and
a large proportion of the houses were unoccupied.
In Peshawur a very different spirit prevailed. The
people had poured in from the country districts in
such numbers, that it was said the population had
doubled since the occupation. The great heats had
set in, but, although the troops were still indifferetly
provided with quarters, they were generally in good
health.

The utmost care was taken throughout the Pun-
jaub to protect the inhabitants against any exactions
on the part of the troops, and to establish the most
complete relations between the civil and military
powers. _ _ _

The species of bastard rebellion set on foot by the
reputed Appa Sahib seems to have been all but for-
gotten. The skirmish in which Brigadier Onslow so
unfortunately lost his life seems to have entirely dis-
concerted the concoctors of the absurd enterprise.
The following casualties by death in the army in

(From the Bombay 7 imes.)
The past month leaves us nearly in the plight of the
weary knifegrinder—the newspapers are newsless, and
he who would give the story of our proceedings finds
that story he has none to tell. The weather is really al-
most the only topic we possess on which it is at present
necessary to remark. The south-west monsoon, which
usually sets iu at the end of May, the rain beginning to
tall plentifully during the first week of June, was this
season much later than usual, and we had little more
than casual showers till the 15th. Since then we have
had no want of moisture; about twenty-two inches hav-
ing fallen up to the present time. Fortunately the fall
has been general, and—unlike the tremendous cataracts
which last year poured down on as during the last three
days of May and the first three days of June, but scarcely
reached beyond the Ghauts—our recent rains have tra-
velled over all parts of India, and raised the anticipations
of the agriculturists in proportion. The good folks at
Madras are endeavouring to revive the project of a
railway at that presidency, in hopes of receiving the
same amount of guarantee Bombay and Calcutta have
secured. To show his feelings on the subject, Sir Henry
Pottinger, Governor of Madras, gave the use of the ban-
queting-room to the meeting, and acted as chairman, and
delivered a very excellent address on the occasion. The
trial of Moolraj is now in progress at Lahore. From the
evidence already published up to the sixth day of the
trial, there is no proof of greater criminality against him
than was at the beginning imputed to him; no reason
whatever to believe that he meditated bad faith, or that
there was any understanding or conspiracy amongst the
Seikhs in the end of April, 1848. The people were in
open uproar against the surrender of the Government by
Moolraj before our Ambassadors arrived; the encounter
with them was a haphazard one, and Moolraj afterwards
placed himself at the head of a commotion which had
arisen without his concurrence—which he could guide,
but could not put down. The whole troops around him
at this time were from 500 to 1,500, so that the insurrec-
tion might at the outset have been suppressed with the
most moderate effort of vigour. Had the force of 6,000
men ordered on the 6th of April by Sir F. Currie, when
he first heard of the disturbance, to hold themselves in
readiness, moved immediately, they would have been
ready to act in concert with Edwardes by the middle of
June, and most probably have had Moult= made over to
them without resistance. The officers belonging to the
Bombay army holding staff appointments at the Pre-
sidency have been permitted to return from Peshawur;
some difficulty retarding a reference having arisen,
delayed them till close on the rainy season,
they reached Kurrachee a fortnight since, and
there for two months they must remain. Formidable
irregularities, likely to lead to the most serious con-
sequences, have been discovered in the management of
the Benares Bank, the directors of which are asserted to
have purchased their stock with money borrowed from
the bank, to have held their ground by the value of the
votes of parties who had not paid up their shares, and
who had paid their first instalments by loans from the
bank at 12 per cent. interest. When Benares Bank
Stock was selling in the market at from 30 to 50 per
cent. discount, the directors purchased in the stock of
their friends at par, and cancelled the shares ; they at
the outset invested nearly the whole of the capital in the
Ganges Steam Navigation Company, from which, under
any circumstances, it could not have been withdrawn if
desired, and which pursued a ruinously losing career.
As the directors nearly all belong to the army, the matter
is undergoing a strict investigation. Much sensation
has been owed by an order said to be about to be pro-
