THE PUNJAUB.

We have so little news of any importance for dis-
patch by this mail that we must make much of the
little we possess. In times more stirring the Pun-
jaub tidings as they now stand would hardly have
been thought worthy of a separate section. In the
middle of March the city and citadel were occupied
by one portion of the troops; head-quarters, under Sir
J. Littler, were encamped immediately under the pa-
lace gates. The Seikh troops were turned out of the
city so often as individuals of them were discovered,
guards having been posted at the gates to exclude
intruders. From 90 to 100 pieces of ordnance be-
yond what we expected were found in Lahore, and
taken possession of by us. Runjeet Singh's artillery
is said at one tune to have consisted of from 700 to
800 pieces, of all calibres, and there are reported to
be still in the Punjaub nearly as many guns as we
have captured The rumour does not seem very cre-
dible in either case. The consummate cunning of
Ghoolab Singh now becomes apparent ; he was all
along acting a part so as to secure the best terms he
could to himself. The Commander-in-Chief, who
had attended the Governor-General as far as Ura-
ritser, having returned to camp, finally quitted La-
hore about the 22d—proceeding towards Nugger
Ghaut under an escort of her Majesty's 9th Lancers, the
3d Light Cavalry, and Ist European Infantry. The
Seikhs in and around the capital were tranquil enough,
but turmoils were said to have arisen near the Jhelum,
and Ghoolab Singh seemed anxious to do
anything rather than soothe and pacify his
countrymen. The sulky soldiery were breathing
curses against us not loud but deep, and vowing that
as soon as our armies were withdrawn the Queen and
her Government should suffer. Meanwhile two Seikh
corps are to be raised for British service, and these, we
should imagine, would go a considerable way to absorb
the balance of disbanded troops not taken into the Lahore
army. The extreme fertility of a large portion of the
Jullunder Doab seems the admiration of every one.
The weather was beginning to feel warm in tents.
Lieutenant Hodgson, of the Engineers, had been
detached to erect quarters for the troops to be
stationed at Dukkun-i• Serai. eighteen miles from
Jullundar, and thirty from Fulloor. Here the Ist
regular, and the Bth irregular cavalry, and the 3d troop
Ist brigade of horse artillery, were to be stationed.
At Jullunder the main body of the force was to re-
main, consisting of the sth cavalry, Swinley's troop
of horse artillery, and four regiments of native in-
fantry.
In our recent acquisitions the 41st Native In-
fantry were to be placed at Noorpoor, the 44th
Native Infantry at Dote Kangra, and the 59th Na-
tive Infantry at Hoosheearpoor. The Shekawattee
Brigade marched from Jullunder on the 24th, on
their way to Dhurmkote, the station destined for
them. A wing of the 2d cavalry is posted at Tul-
.wundee. Col.
_Lane and Major Campbell's troops of
horse artitlay had on the 28th reached Ferozepore
from Lahore. On the 30th Col. Frushard's brigade
arrived at the same station from Sinde. The 7th
cavalry were expected on the Ist April. Captain
Duncan's troop of horse artillery left Ferozepore
for Muttra on the 27th. With these meagre no-
tices we may dismiss the summary of intelligence from
an army whose doings six weeks since required pages
and pages of our journal. We now receive with much
reserve and hesitation the tales supplied by native cor-
respondents, seeing to what extent the best of them must
for the last two years have been unauthentic.
BOMBAY, APRIL 15.

In consequence of the limited demand for bills, and
an influx of paper from Calcutta and other places, the
rate of Exchange on England has advanced from 2s. to
2s. qd. per rupee, according to the credit attached to the
paper. At the latter rate Calcutta bills have been freely
offered.

CALCUTTA, APRIL 7.
Exchange has been brisker ; and good bills have been
let off at 2s. lid. a id. at 10 months' date.

HERRING TRADE.—WICK, MAY 7.—A trial was
made for herrings, on this coast, last week, when about fifty were
caught one night on the hooks, off Sarclet. The appearance of fish
on the coast is said to be good. Some contracts have been entered
for cured fish of the ensuing season, at Lybster, for 18s. to 18s. 6d.
The same has been offered at Wick, but not accepted. —John o'Groat
Journal,

STRIKE.—The working carpenters and joiners of
Inverness have resolved to strike work unless an addition of 3s. be
made to their present wages, which average about 12s. per week.—
Ross-shire Adcertiser.

Captain Somerset having announced his intention of
standing for the county of Monmouth, in opposition to Lord Gran-
ville Somerset, a member of her Majesty's Government and a Cabinet
Minister, the Gallant Captain has resigned his appointment as
Equerry in the household of her Majesty the Queen Dowager.

'Eminsious Andrew, of 'Whitby,
fishmonger' had in his possession last week a most extraordinary
cod fish, in fact, one of the largest that has been caught along this
coast for a great number of years. The following are the particu-
lars:—Weight, 3 stone, Nibs. ; length, 4 feet, 6Ni inches; circum-
ference, 2 feet, 64 inches.—Yorkshire Gazette.
THE ASCENT OF THE BALLOON.—Mr. C. Green,
who ascended on Monday night from the Royal Standard Tavern,
in the Albion balloon, with his brother, Mr. H. Green, after a very
boisterous passage, landed safely at High Ongar, they having accom-
plished the distance (twenty-five miles) in twenty minutes.
His Royal Highness Prince Albert, eldest son of
Prince Johan of Saxony, and heir presumptive to the throne of
Saxony, is shortly to enter the Leipzic University.
BIRTH EXTRAORDINARY.—A poor married woman, of
the name of Mason, residing near the Pound, Bromley, Middlesex,
was on Monday evening (May 18) safely delivered of four sons, all
alive and well, by 'arr. H. V. Garman, jun., of Bow-road, Middle-
sex. The interesting little strangers have since been christened by
the Rev. Mr. Boyle, Matthew, Mark, Luke, and Joseph. It is gra-
tifying to add that the mother and her four sons were up to yester-
day going on well.
SINGULAR CIRCUMSTANCE.—A few weeks since, Mr.
R. Sallows, of Kates-hill Farm, Iladleigh, had a cat with six kittens.
Three of them were destroyed ; soon after four live young rabbits
were given to it ; she managed to eat three, but the fourth she care-
fully placed in the basket with her young, and is now bringing them
up together with the greatest attention —Suffolk Paper.
DEATFI FROM A PEA.—A boy, two years of age, the
son of Charles Stewart M`Fale, who lives at Hazlebottom, was on
Thesday playing with a few peas which his mothet had given to him.
when he suddenly began to gasp, as if choked. His alarmredrucke,r,

VICAR A
IN A TRULY LAMENTABLE STATE!—It is
the practice of 4he worthy Vicar of Leeds to invite young persons,
and others in want of spiritual advice and instruction, to meet him
in the vestry of the parish church, one evening lit each week, when
he Is in waiting for the purpose. About three weeks ago, a young
journeyman tradesman waited on the vicar, "on serious thoughts
Intent," at the hour appointed. He was Introduced, and the usual
series of questions put. " Well, young man, are you a member of
the Church ?" "Yes." "Have you been confirmed ?" "Yes." "Do
you regularly receive the sacrament ?" " Yes." "Do you ever go
to any other place of worship ?" [Young man, hesitating]_..l have
once or twice of into gone to a Methodist chapel in the evening ?"
[Vicar, drawing back with a shudder, and a stern look]—... young
g
man, I have to tell you that you have been guilty of the awful
sinou o
schism ; I must inlotm you that you are in a truly awful antdh I can
lament-
able able state. —[A pause.] —Young man, I am sorry to sa
do nothing for you!" [Exit the young man, as if at
thunderstruck].
Query—Whether is the young man or the TIM' in the most "awful

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.

(From The Sun of last Night.)
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were only 1,500
bales, the market being very dull, though not lower. Shares
were inactive.

Messrs. Lamond and Co.'s sale was better attended, more
confidence was shown, and prices were decidedly higher.
The biddings were spirited for many of the favourite lines.
We have marked a few of the pricipal sales. Calcutta and
St. George's Point, 6s. 6d.—Paris and Lyons, 71.18.—London
and Manchester, Rastrick's, 3/, 10s.—Warwickshire and

The private accounts received by the West India mer-
chants, per the Thames steamer, bear out the character given
of the state of the crops, as made public in the journals. A
most lively apprehension existed as to the result of the
debates in the Imperial Parliament upon the most important
topic of the sugar duties. We hear from our private corres-
pondence, that a feeling prevails among the West India
proprietors, that Sir Robert Peel is resolved upon a most
material alteration in the duties now imposed upon the ad-
mission of foreign sugars. The produce of the crops would,
ithout question, be v(ry materially short, and this fact, it is
supposed, and probably truly so—may lead to a very consi-
derable argument in favour of a change in the sugar duties.
The rise in the price of the article latterly, most certainly
favours the sanction of some variation of a liberal tenour as
respects foreign sugar. The Thames did not bring a Mexican
mail, and therefore there have not been any remit-
tances on account of the dividends upon Mexican Stock.
Money was tight in all the West Indian Islands.
The Consol Market has somewhat receded to-day, the price
for the Account having been at 96%, and for immediate
transfer, 961.2 14. The advertised xchequer-bills have
been sold at 225. premium ; and India Bonds at 255. prem.
The New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. have fallen to 97.
Money is rather more in request to-day.
In the Foreign Market very few transactions have been
reported this morning. The Portuguese Converted have
been sold at 57% ; and the Four per Cents.
at 571%. The Spanish Ttiree per Cents. are rather
more firm at 3714. The Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents.
have beeu sold at 59% 3/4 ; and the Four per Cents. at
90/s
The Railway Investments are rather flat this morning. A
good deal of business, however, has been effected. The
official list of latest prices is annexed.

MAMMOTH Loi;ortortvEs.—The Great Western Com-
pany have just comj )leted three most powerful locomotive engines,
built upon the plan , and under the superintendence of Mr. Brunel,
assisted by Mr. Go( ,cli, the superintendent of the locomotive depart-
ment. The dimenr ions of the Great Western engine (the leviathan
of hicomotives) are , diameter of driving wheel, 8 feet; cylinder, 18
in et ; stroke, 24 inches ; boiler, between
15 and 16 feet; weight of
engi e, 36 tons, wj thout water ; weight of the tender, without either
coke •or water, 10' cons : making a total of 46 tons. This enormous en-
gine, built for passenger trains, drew a train weighing
136 tons up the incline at Wootton Bassett with as
much ease an d as fast as one of the smaller engines
would a passenger train. The engine Queen is likewise for pas-
senger trains, and was built at Swindon—driving wheels, 7 feet dia-
meter; stroke, lf, inches; cylinder, 16 inches; boiler, 14 feet;
weight of engine, without water, 2,5 tons ; weight of tender, 9 tons,
without coke or 1 rater. The above engines, when their machinery
gets into workiag order, are intended to be employed in propelling
the express train 9. The other is a luggage engine, the
Premier,
