approaching to a premature grave, in consequence of some disease,
which, for want of careful investigation of its real cause, has been
set down to the score of consumption, will, o❑ perusing this work,
be astonished to find, that in nine•tenths of the cases of young per-
sons of both sexes, who perish of what is called pulmonary con-

been the indulgence in certain destructive habits practised by youth

In the Bombay presiency preparations were made to
enable troops to move About delay, should their ser-

mating that her presenecwas urgently required by the
Resident and Durbar at Lhore. No difficulty occurred
in getting her away fromShaikhoopra. She t )ok her
departure willingly, and was conveyed from place
to place, her escort bing . relieved as she went
along, until she reached Umliallah, where, by the
last accounts, she had justarrived. 'The Delhi Gazette
tells us that she had thrt or four female attendants
only, and that " no one wa allowed to see more of her

We have hadone of' the mot violent and long-con=
tinued storms of wiud and mint that has fur ten years
been experienced in Bombay.
.eFor forty hours it has
poured in perfect delueree-Ae* wind blowing a furious
gale from south-west. No less than thirty-six inches of
rain have fallen since the 27th of May; eight inches have
been measured within these thirty-six hours. The ave-
rage fall for Juno is twenty inches; this season we are
very likely to have forty. As a wet Juno invariably
gives a favourable rainy season, of course the cultivators
are delighted with the appearance of things. The island
is one series of lakes and islets; passengers are up to the
knees on our turnpikes; buffaloes seen swimming where
a month since they grazed. Singular enough, though it
has rained cats and dogs here for nearly a month, it is
not ten days since the rain began to extend itself into
the interior. At Poona they were suffering from drought
so late ,as the Bth; at Dapoorea scarcely any had fallen
when we last heard. Trade is, of course, at a stand-still,
but the prospect of a favourable season makes every one
sanguine that it will be resumed with much briskness
and vigour in August. Our share market is very dull;
a good deal of our stuck unsaleable altogether, all of it
fearfully down.
The rains have thrown our mails three days behind—
a good sign of abundance of water in the interior at
least.

CALCUTTA, JUNE 10.—The one event of this dispatch
is the suspension from office of Mr. W. P. Grant, Master
in Equity of the Supreme Court, and one of those r rin-
cipally concerned in the ruin of the hapless Union Bank.
An announcement made by the Chief-Justice of hisin-
tention to bring forward some case of great importance
on a certain day, was by some supposed to refer to this
same Mr. Grant, and so it has turned out. On the ap-
pointed day (Tuesday last), Sir Lawrence Peel read to a
crowded Court a long and elaborate " judgment" on the
Master. Ile (the Chief. Justice) was greatly affected,
and even, it is said, shed tears while reading it; but the
end was a sentence of suspension for misconduct, which
had alienated from the Master the confidence of the
judges. The purport of the address is briefly as fol-
lows:—The judges had for some time, in their private
capacities and through common report, been aware that
Mr. Grant was accused of misconduct as a director of the
Union Bank. He believed, however, that they could not,
with propriety, call him to account until the matter
came before them in their judicial character. The
first legal proceedings ensuing on the fall of the bank,
and which camo before the court in April last, gave them,
they thought, good and sufficient ground to proceed
upon. It then appeared that Mr. Grant, a high officer
of the Supreme Court, had, as a director, been an active
party to an illegal contravention of the bank's deed of
agreement in the issuing of post bills, and that, as a
leading director, he had been accessory to the sending
forth of deceptive reports, intended to mislead share-
holders and the public. It hadr by subsequent pro-
ceedings, further appeared that Mr.. Grant, being then
a director, had become largely indebted to the bank, on
very inadequate security. This confirmation of the re-
ports, which had reached the ears of the judges, led to
a withdrawal of their Lordships' confidence frota the
Master, and the fact was announced to that officer by
letter, on the llth -of April last. Mr. Grant, on receipt
of this communication; wrote a reply, asserting that he
was not aware of having done anything to forfeit the
confidence of the Court, and requesting that he
might bo made acquainted with the specific circum-
stances referred to. The request was complied
with, whereon Mr. Grant asserted that the Court
had no right to judge:of his official character by his ex-
tra-official acts, and that be held his office as a freehold,
or rather quamdiu se bene se gen.t. A long and not very
satisfactory correspondence appears then to have ensued,
and the end of it was Mr. Grant's suspicion. He will
probably appeal to the Privy Council, a step which the
Chief Justice anticipates, having, as he stated in his ad-
dress, had an eye to the possible reinstatement of the
Master by that tribunal,. when be suspended, instead of
at once dismissing him from office. The fortunate young
man, Mr. W. Macpherson, who not, long ago was made
official assignee in the room of 0 Dowd, has, according
to common belief; been appointed to act in the place of
Mr. Grant. Mr. Gordon, a barrister. newly arrived from
Sydney, has, it is said, succeeded Mr. Macpherson in
the assigneeship.

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.
THE BOMBAY MARIE rs.

FROli THE 20TH MAY TO THE 17TH JUNE INCLUSIVE.

SATURDAY, JUNE U.—Since our report of the 19th
ult., the season for business hero has been brought to a
close by the setting in of the south-west monsoon, and
the usual dulness of this period of the year has conse-
quently prevailed in the interval. The rain that has
fallen in the meantime has been most abundant, while
from different parts of the interior favourable accounts
in this respect are also received; and though yet too
soon to form a decided opinion on the coming harvest,
there is every hope, judging from present appearances,
that it will be au abundant one, and that we shall also

witness a resumption of business at a comparatively
early period, with every prospect of a good trade during
the coming season. Our money market is, we are he.ppy
to state, in a healthy condition; supplies of specie ure
coming freely forward from China, and matters in this
respect are likely to continue easy for some time. Co:.-
sequent upon this, Government securities have im
proved in value, while shares in some of our joint-stock
banks have materially declined, owing to an anxious
feeling on the part of many of the native shareholders
to realize their property. As we anticipated at the date
of our last report, the excitement caused by the decision
of the Supreme Court against the repudiators of the
opium bargains, soon calmed down, and the fears ex-
pressed by some as to the serious injury that might
result to our commercial interests have turned out to
possess even less foundation than we thought at the time.
In the 35 cases immediately affected; by the decision
of the Court the money has instantly been forthcoming.
The great portion of the loss has fallen upon our wealthy
Mharwarrie Shroffs, and as we have before said, they
were quite prepared to meet Ramlall's claims against
them in full. So far. as we expected, there has been
no ill effect in our bazaars from the above- cause,
nor do we think any is likely to result.
Cotton Piece Goods—Our market, as usual at this
period, is very quiet, and the season being closed, the
business done is of course to a very limited extent.
Present inquiry is confined chiefly to grey shirtings of
40 and 45 inch widths, particularly the latter, of low
and middling qualities. For grey madapollams and j sc-
conets there is also a slight inquiry, but no sales to any
extent could be effected at the moment unless at low
rates. As regards other goods, nothing calls for parti-
cular remark, except grey dhooties, which are scarce,
and in some demand.
Cotton Yarn—The sales since our last have been on a

somewhat limited scale, owing to the indisposition of
halclers to part with their reduced stocks except at ad-
vanced prices. The firmness they have shown has had
the etftct,of_atusaiee tatypr& to irierisa t.

Vyed Yarns,—ln Turkey red twist we have no, sale.
to report; the article continues very depressed and diffi-
cult of sale. Of orange yarn we have had several arri-
vals, and the following •sales are reported :-20 bales,
average N0..40, at 121 a., bundles, 7 Ib.. and four bales
at 141'4. also eight bales damaged, at 12a. per lb.
Coehineal—The arrivals since the 19th ult. have been
very heavy, amounting to 44,0001 b., and prices have ex-
perienced a material decline. The sales reported are,
1,7001 b, at 3kr. per lb. ; 10,0001 b., at 2r. 15a. ; and
4,0001 b., at 2r. 1 la. The estimated stock is about
50,00010., so that prices are likely to rule low for a.
considerable time, seeing that further supplies are on
the way.
Attals—Swedish bar iron is in good demand and
scarce, while prices have a tendency upwards. British
bar, on the contrary, although stocks both in first and
second hands are moderate, has declined in value, 34r.
per candy being the quotation for the best assortment.
Uf late the importations have been very trifling, but we
observe there is a quantity on board a vessel arrived to-
day. Nail rod, both round and square, is somewhat,
lower is price; but in sheet and hoop iron, as also nails,
there is no change" to notice. Copper—A decline ha;
taken place in all kinds of copper, with the exception of,
South American, which maintains its price. Swedisb:
steel and lead, both pig and sheet, are dull of sale.
Spelter is firmer, owing to the great reduction in stocks

experienced here within the last five days arc likely to

the growth of the late sowings.
Sugar.—An improved disposition for business in this
article is gaining ground, yet caly at the most moderate
rates of hat week, which are less generally accepted.
Sew Benares are sought after for vessels on the eve of

import market may revive, and in some measure regain
its late promising tone.

Grey Shirtings—There is hardly any change to note
in these goods. A fair demand exists in all descriptions
of 40 inch goods, and sales have been to a moderate ex-
tent at about the reduction in value mentioned i❑ our
last ; 45-inch kinds have not drawn much attention,
while wider sorts also have been only in very slight in-
quiry. Imports in May, 63,046 pieces.
W hite shirtings are without any alteration since our
last report, and small parcels as they arrive meet with
willing purchasers at fair , prices. Imports in May,
15,694 pieces.
White Twills continue very quiet, and hardly any
sales having been effected of late. Imports in May,
5,430 pieces. .
:tlectapollams—Grey goods are eagerly sought for, and
sell readily on arrival at good rates. For whites the de-
mand is nut so lively, bet still the market is favourable.
Imports in May, 9,450 pieces.
Jceeonets—Both greys and whites have been in fair
inquiry, and sales have been considerable at the lower
rates mentioned in our last; at present the market wears
a steady aspect. Imports in May, 24,261 pieces.
White Cambrics—ln these we have no change to re-
port, and the demand continues exceedingly languid.
Imports in May, 8,318 pieces.
White figured Cambrics and Shirtings—One or two
sales only of this class of goods are reported. In prices
there is no change to note.
Lappets continue in a most neglected state. Stocks
are ample, and there appears no disposition whatever on
the part of dealers to begin operations in these fabrics.
Transactions have, theretore, been on a most limited
scale, and always at very unfavourable prices. Imports
in May, 69,712 pieces.
Book Illuslins--Sales have again been of a most
trifling nature, and no signs of improvement in demand
are perceptible. Imports in May, 30,726 pieces.
Mull Mulls—Hardly a transaction has taken place in
these goods, and prices are in a great measure nominal
ones.

Turkey Red Mulls—During the last few days the in-
quiry for these has been a little more frequent, but sales
huve been small, and prices realized show very low rates.
Turkey Red Twills and Cambrics—Continue greatly
neglected, and sales have been of a trifling nature at low
rates.

Turkey red printed mulls remain without any revival
of demand, and there appears but a slight disposition
amongst dealers to operate, even at the reduced value
mentioned in our last report.
Prints and Chintzes—lnquiry continues moderate, and
so far sales have been unimportant.
llhooties and Scarfs—Transactions have been small,
and the value of this class of goods has not increased.
Woollens—Of late very little has been done in these.
Now, however, a few bazaar people are on the look out,
and inquiries are frequent, but no actual transactions of
consequence are reported.
Mule Twist—Since our last sales have been going on
at tolerably steady rates, with some disposition towards
better prices for 40s. and 50s. A little more firmness on
the part of holders might possibly cause a reaction, and
put this article on something near the good footing it
held about a month back. For the high counts there is
no better demand, and prices are as low as ever. Im-
ports in May, 814,910111 F.
Coloured Yarns—ln our last we mentioned that at the
time of writing there had sprung up a less favourable
disposition towards purchasing Turkey red yarn, and
