troducing a system only practicable where a love of
knowledge has become general. The result is inevit-
able—long before the century has expired the dis-
covery will be made that the labour and money
now being expended have been something worse
than thrown away ; that the first thing to be done
is to endeavour to undo all we have already at-
tempted, demolish the preposterous struc' ures now
being reared, clear away the rubbish, dig fitting
foundations, and commence building anew.
Madras is beginning to prepare for a new exhibi-
tion of arts and manufacture, to take place in 1857,
this being considered fully warranted, expensive to
g wernment as it is, by the triumphant success of
the previous show. Even the Nizatu has become
smitten by the infection, and the Prime Minister
has subscribed 2,0001. out of his own pocket to
assist in getting up an exhibition at Hydrabad. At
Calcutta arrangements are being made for the re-
organisation under Government of the Economic
Museum, established in 1849, and since then most
ably conducted by Mr. Piddington, under the aus-
pices of the Asiatic Society. It is desired from hence-
forth to be connected with the trigonometrical and
geological surveys, and in some degree assimilated
to the establishment in Jermyn-street. In the
midst of these arrangements, however desirable in
themselves they may be, the invaluable and ill-ro-
- quited services of those who have hitherto laboured
in the cause run some risk of being overlooked, on
the fallacious principle, common in the colonies, that
nothing indigenous can be had good, and that effi-
ciency must be imported directly from England.
The past fortnight at Bombay has been occupied
by the discussion of our prospective municipal
arrangements, and the everlasting question of the
Vohar water scheme. With about 60,0001. a year of
municipal funds to be realised and disposed of, it
is found impossible to get the ratepayers to pay the
slightest heed to the management of their own af-
fairs, and the whole system as now prevailing is
one of jobbery, mismanagement, and corruption.
The only remedy within reach seems to be to get
government to take municipal matters out of the
and constitute that into
bands of the municipality,
a separate department which there seems little I
prospect of haying otherwise managed. •
The Vehar question we not 'c in our last. Mr.
Co nYbeare, the engineer, sent home, after having
treated tilt; 100A1 government and municipality with
the must studied insolence and uniform neglect, has
induced the court of Directors to order the suspon •
sion of the works now in
progress, on the pretence
of their beingraisco structed. The delay of a twelve-
month thus already occasioned may come to be ex-
tended to inftnitn6, from the unhappy circumstance
of an official, long here in the worst possible o lour,
having made interest and found a hearing in
Leadenhall-street, which he could not in India have
secured, and a rplinquermial water famine once
more be upon us Wore it Can be mot. Amongst

The Peninsular and Oriental Company's ship
Chusan, with telegraphic reports via Calcutta from
London to the 26th of June, arrived on the sth
.ugust, three weeks from Bombay, followed the
next day by the report bearer to Singapore, the
Fiery Cross, 13 running Ca7B only from Calcutta.
Tho Lightning, also from Calcutta via Penang,
arrived on the morning of Aug. 9. The most re-
markable record of the month elapsed since the
despatch of the previous mail had been the exceed-
ingly inclement weather. In Canton as much as
113 inches of rain fell in 57 days. The foreign
factories weire flooded, communication in some cases
being kept up by boats. Ruin to the provincial
rice crops follows as a matter of course, and great is
the distress anticipated from the conjunction of the
high price of rice and anarchy.
Touching the rebellion, the Overland Friend of
China says :
" As the rebellion approaches its crisis this subject is
becoming mere and more absorbing. News very un-
favourable to the imperialists has recently reached
Shanghai. One roped says three cities south-west of Soo-
chow have fallen. The laiest intelligence of the rebels
in the neighbourhood of N n'xing is that they have been
gaining upon the imperialists, and have taken the town
Keelung and a district town in the vicinity of Nan-
king, aeso Leih-yang, which belongs to the department
of Ching Kiang, and are now besieging the town of
E-sing, in Chang-chodr-fo). The commander-in-aid of
the imperialists, Ileang-yung, has been compelled to
withdraw his forces from the neighbourhood of Nanking.
The cavalry under his command have disappeared, and
his other troops aro dispirited. The two parties have
lately had two general battles, in both of which the in-
surgents wore victors. In the first Governor Keih fell,
and various other high officers were killed. In the last
the chief commander of the day was wounded in the
thigh, and his troops routed by the insurgents. The
whole province of Kiang-si, Kivang-lung on the
north-east, is now reported as entirely in possession of
the insurgents.
The Peking Gazette (Hay 22) gives an account of the
loss of Ning-k woh-foo, about 200 miles west of Shang-
hai --" On the 7th inst. our local reporter informed us
of the loss of Ung-chow, in Kwang-si, whore tho rebel-
lion first commenced, and is now going on with power.
The officers in command were wounded, the fort ficatiuns
ani war junks all. taken, excepting nine that made their
escape. Again another despatch came on the 27th ult.,
saying that the market town of Wang-cheng was taken
by the rebels, and one commander perished, The past
month seems to have been an unfortunate period for the
imperialists ; the reports of their losses, like Job's, fo'.
low each other in quick succession ; but there is one
e insolation, it to be hoped that their loss is the

" The price of gold to sellers remains at 31. 16s. The
entries for shipment at the Custom-house today con-
sisted of 5,739 ounces for Liverpool, 2,020 ounces for
Calcutta, 1,292 ounces for Hong Kong, and 33 ounces
for Sydney. The Customs bill of entry for the week
ended shows an export of 12,466 ounces, of which the
banks shipped 10,555 ounces. The Oriental Bank also
shipped 5,0001. in-specie to Ceylon.
"The arrivals for the week ended last night have been
very limited from the neighbouring colonies, but large
from the United Kingdom. Including the Ocean Mon-
arch six large vessels of over 8,000 tons burden have
entered the bay. The foreign arrivals have been two
from China via Adelaide, one from Manilla, and one
from Boston, U.S. The departures for the week have
been 26 vessels, many of small tonnage, and showing a
balance in favour of upwards of 5,000 tons."
The Age of the same date reports that the escorts
from Mount Alexander and Ballarat had brought
in to Melbourne on the 27th, 29,109 ounces of
gold, and 28,797/. cash. On June 27th arrived at
elbourne the ships Oscar I. and Goldfiuder from
London, and the James Baines from Liverpool, the
latter having suffered in a squall. Au agitation
was afloat for Oise assimilation of the tariffs in the
Australian colonies. Both at Melbourne and at
Sydney the necessaries of life were exceedingly
cheap, and agricultural produce was selling at
prices which were not remunerative. At Sydney
potatoes were unsaleable at 2s. per cwt. Mr. Fel-
lows, a sound and able lawyer in largo practice,
had accepted the office of Solicitor-General of
Victoria. It is hoped that the Chinese, who were
very numerous in Victoria, might be induced to
engage in making the railways. Both in Melbourne
and Sydney
associations had been formed against
government grants to religious denominations.
From South Australia we learn that the Legisla-
tive Council had been prorogued by the Governor,
after having passed measures for initiating the new
constitution. The Governor expressed his hope
that the political power entrusted to the people and
the universal suffrage conceded by the new consti-
tution would prove a safe and conservative mea-
sure. Negotiations were on foot for connecting
Adelaide with Melbourne by electric telegraph.
The following paragraphs from the Governor's
speech will be interesting, not merelyfrom the
curious coincidences of probable cost, &c., of the
projected railway to the River Murray, but for the
distinct enunciation by the Governor of the great
principle that, however convinced . himself of the
propriety of the scheme, he could not ask the
Council_to-commit themaelYeti to itAuatil they were'

Sirdar Gholam Khan, some short time ago, ,patched
a messenger (a spy) to Herat to collect authentic iatel-
ligenca, wh', having returned, reportg that the Persian
besieging force amounts to ab mt 12,000 men of all arms ;
but that both the besiegers and the b3siegrd lie upon
their arms, and do not show the last inclination to
bring matters to an issue by assault or sallying out.
The Shezadah Yusouf has received Mahoined Alum
Khan, son of the ex chief Candahar, with great pomp
and honour, and has allowed him to pitch his tent at
some distance from the Persian army.
A letter superscribed to the Shazadah has been brought
to the Ameer. It contained an unlimited eulogium on
the Prince Yusouf for his sagacity and courage in get-
ting hold of Herat, and , thus making the name and
renown of his dead ancestors more brillia• t, and abus-
ing tho Ameer fur his disloyalty tuwards tiro Royal
family of Atlghanistan, and for allying himself with the
accursed Persians, whilst professing outwarlly great
frilndship with the English. It advised the prince
to try and attach himself to the British Govern-
ment, who would enrich him, and protect Herat
against the Kajars. The Ameer treated the whole
muter as a joke, Ad sent on the letter to the Persian
commander-in.chief near Herat, thinking the letter
might possibly cause some inquiry, and pehaps diem-
don between the Persian commander-in-chief and the
Shazadah. In this he tailed. The Persian officer
laughed on perusing the letter, and politely said that if
the Ameer had not forged the letter, it must be written
by some needy, pensioned, and ragged Shazadab, some
descendant of the late Shah Socji, who wished to flatter
the Engl,h.

The drain of gold from the Bank increases, a further
sum of about 70,0001. having been withdrawn yesterday.
Under these circumstances, although the demand for
' money has again been moderate, another advance in the
rate of discount may be looked for at any moment.
RUSSIAN STEAM COMPANIES, —Advices from S. Peters-
burg furnish the details of the recent subsidies granted
' by the Russian Government for the formation of steam
companies in the Mack Sea and elsewhere. They; will
amount annually to between 400,0001. and 5 000,0001.,
the line to Alexandria alone receivinif 50,0001 , le-pides
other privikges. The total capital to be employed is
2,000,000/., and the shares, which were all ta.ki n up im-
mediately, now command 10 premium. Tho vessels are
all to be built to carry guns "if necessary," and the
movement is regarded by. many as a clever mode of
creating and maintaining a navy so as to evade the treaty
of Paris. Some of the lines, it is observed are obviously
such as could never have been formed for legitimate pur-
poses of trade, and the cry is that Russia will now get
effective ships for political purposes at a cheaper rate
than if they were avowedly in Government service. The
same advices mention that the late statement in Le Nord
of the concession fur the proposed net-work of Russian
railways having been finally granted to the Paris Credit
Mobilier, Messrs. Baring, and others was incorrect, or
at•leut premature.

Of conve there are various reports flying aboe, some
stating that the Ameer, tired of waiting for English
assistance, has received money from the Persians, and
is about to al!y himself to them. Others, that under
various preftnces he is allowing his chiefs to ally them-
selves to the Persian army, to prove to the English G.
vernment how helpless he is to prevent this desertion.
But his conduct in reply to the advice tendered him
would prove quite the contrary ; and the Ameer is a
great deal too cunning, if not too wise, to fey° up of his
own accord even the appearance of British protec-
tion for an uncertainty, until entirely deserted by his
allies. There is, however, no doubt that the Ameer is
not popular at Candahar, in consequence of the disor-
derly state of his troops, who cannot be prevented from
