N.B.—The quantity of ammunition captured with the
artillery, and found in the camp of the enemy, is beyond ac-
curate calculation, consisting of shot, shell, grape, and small
arm ammunition of every description and for every calibre.
The powder found in the limbers and waggons of the guns,
and in the magazines of the intrenched camp, has been de-
stroyed to prevent accidents. Six laree hackery loads have
also been appropriated to the destruction of forts in the
neighbourhood. As many of the shot and shell as time
would admit of being collected have been brought into the
park—the shells beim-, useless have been thrown into the
river. The shot will be appropriated to the public service.

MALTA, MARCH 17, 10 A.li.
The Oriental, which left Alexandria on the 11th instant,
at eight, A.M., arrived here at half•past two yesterday morn-
ing, but brought no India mail, the same having been dis-
patched thirty-five hours previous to her departure by her
Majesty's steamer-of-war Virago, which up to this moment
had not yet made her appearance, and fearing that she may
have broke down, the Admiral is dispatching the Locust to
Marseilles with a newspaper which he has received, dated the
15th ult., from Bombay.

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.
THE BOMBAY MARKET.
(From the Chamber of Commerce Overland Price Current.)
BOMBAY, FEB. 14.—There has been little change in the
general aspect of the market for imports, during the brief
period which has elapsed since the departure of the last
steamer. Considerable dullness still prevails, and though
the scarcity of money from which commercial operations
have lately suffered has in a great measure disappeared, the
reaction has not been attended with any increase ire the
demand for British goods or improvement in the prices paid
for them. The continuance of military operations on the
northern frontier contributes largely to prevent matters from
assuming a more favourable position.
Metals—The market for iron has been almost entirely in-
active since our last, and the only transaction of which we
have heard is one in Swedish bar, at 474 rupees per candy.
In prices there is little alteration to record, beyond the
decline in the description just mentioned, and a falling off of
about 1 rupees per candy in the current rate of square
nail rod. In copper, sheeting, brazier's, and tile have
slightly improved, and the remaining varieties are un-
changed in value. Sheet, of light weights, is in some de-
mand; and tile, also, is inquired for. We quote steel a
shade higher than before, but the article is not at present in
much request. Lead exhibits no change. Spelter has de-
clined, owing to sales having been forced by a large im-
porter, and our quotations could hardly be supported for
small sized plates. The stock of quicksilver is small, and the
article being in demand the price has risen to the extent of
3rs. per maund. Tin plates are stationary.
Cotton Manufactures—The transactions that have had
effect have been again confined, almost exclusively, to the
better qualities of goods, low fabrics being still neglected and
in a measure unsaleable. The business has been to a limited
extent, and chiefly in the better sorts of grey shirtings and
madapollams and in grey domestics, for all of which goods
former prices have been without difficulty obtained. Fine
bleached shirtings and jaconets are still in request, but
for bleached madapollams there is little inquiry, and the
prices offered are unremunerating. Cambrics and muslin:
are alike difficult of sale, the demand for them being slack.
There have been transactions in Turkey red cloths, but at
low prices for the time of year. Prints and fancy goods con-
tinue without inquiry. ,
Yarns—The business done since our last has been incon-
siderable, dealers appearing disposed to purchase only for
the supply of their present wants, and in prices a decline of %
a of an anua per lb has taken place. The stocks, however, are
not large ;in many hands. Orange continues neglected, but
Turkey red is easy at our quotations.
Woollens—There is still a total want of animation in the
market for these goods, and they can only be disposed of at
exceedingly low prices.
Spirits—Gin has improved slightly, but brandy retains its
former low position.
Cochineal—The supply at market is exhausted, and the
article is in request for exportation to China, as well as for
local consumption. Our quotations will be doubtless readily
got for first arrivals.
Saffron—We hear of a sale of 2101bs. at prices varying
from rs 12 and 16 per lb. The highest of these rates may be
taken as the extreme price obtainable, saffron being at this
time in but limited demand.
Bottles are a trifle lower. Corks without change. In
other articles we have nothing of importance to notice.
EASTERN PRODUCE.
Cotton--Ti :e transactions in this staple since our last have
not been extensive or important, and have been chiefly for
the China market. The new crop has arrived slowly, and the
quality of the old (with the exceptions of Comptah, and a
few lots of Dhollera and Oomrawutty newly landed) having
become very indiffrrent, and holders having evinced a dispo-
sition to realise their stocks, prices having slightly given
way. Our present quotations are as follows:—
Broach and Surat, old, Rs. 66',6 to 68
Ditto, new ••• ••• 99 to 91
Dollers, old 76
••• •••
Oomrawuttee, old ••• 76
Ditto, new ••• ••• 36
Comptab, old 68
Opium—May now be quoted at Its. 1,376 per chest, prices
having since our last sustained a slight decline.
Wool—There has been little business done in this article,
and prices remain unchanged.
In other articles of eastern produce we have no alteration
to notice, or transaction to record.
Freights—There has been little change in the rate to
Great Britain, and our quotations may now be fixed at 31. ss.
both to London and Liverpool. To China the rate is Rs. 161,-
and 17 per candy. There have been no recent engagements
to the Clyde.

Exchange—The rate of exchange on England at a month's
sight has declined since our last, bills not being plentiful,
and it may now be quoted at Is. Hid. at is. Had per rupee.
At 30 days, drafts may be had ls. 110. The rate on Cal-
cutta is rupees 99h at 99i, on Madras 99 at 99k, and on
China rupees 209 at 210 per 100 dollars, all at 60 days sight.
