OVERLAND MAIL
INDIA.
We have received by express our dispatches in anti-
cipation of the overland mail from India. The dates
are, Bombay, October 3 ; Calcutta, September 20.
Our Bombay correspondent writes :
BOMBAY, OCT. 3.
The principal item of news for the past fortnight
is the reported determination of the Governor-
General to seize on a portion of the territory of the
Ameer Post Mahomed, of Caubul—it being well
situated for establishing a post to watch and overawe
the Afreedees, Wureerees, &c., around: Peshawur.
The rumour emanates from the Delhi Gazette, who
doss not write as one without authority on the
matter. Ile says—
"News of the gravest import has reached us from tho
north-west. In itself, perhaps, it is not much, but
iu the consequences that may ensue, even a dimly
prophetic eye may discern further conquests, it may
be, further disasters. if our readers will glance
at the map belonging to Major Edwardes' Year on
the Punjaub Frontier,' they will see the valley of
Dour conspicuously marked beyond the mountain
range that forms the western boundary of the
district of the Wuzeerees. This valley lies
within the territories of Dost Mahomed. This
valley has been annexed. We know not if the
Ameer has consented to this arrangement. We know
not if he has been even consulted on the subject. Its
annexation has been pronounced expedient, and it is
annexed accordingly. As soon as the troops can be
moved—for sickness stands in no awe of discipline—
possession will be formally taken of the district, and
a strong outpost probably established at the bead of
the Koorum river, so as to command the supply of
water to the Bunnoo valleys.; Setting aside the moral
—or rather the immoral—view of the question, there
can be no doubt as to the desirable nature of the ac-
quisition. It lies exactly in the rear of the Wuzeerees,
the Afreedees, and the other hill tribes, who can only
be brought under a wholesome degree of restraint by
main force. They are too insolent, too ignorant, too
confident in the natural advantages of their position,
to learn from the experience of their neighbours.
Thus again are we irresistibly driven on in our career
of conquest ; to pause is to retrograde ; to prevent
aggression we must ourselves become the assailants;
and preaching peace, Christianity, and mutual for-
bearance, we are compelled to exterminate all who
oppose our progress or molest our present position.
" It is easy enough to appropriate any portion of any
territory on which we choose to set our desires, and
say we are compelled to follow our destiny—the diffi-
culty lies in maintaining it afterwards. This same
valley of Dour will not be long in our occupation in
peace. Already has Dost Mahomed collected a large
force at Caubul for service below the Khyber, and
paid the Khy berries to allow him free passage through
the defiles. Next year will probably again see the
flames of war lighted on our frontier, to extinguish
which probably thousands of lives and millions of
money will require to be sacrificed. One of thu
hitherto greatest opposers of annexation in any shape
or under any plea, the Bombay Times, nowjells us
that Dost Mabemed deserves no mercy ago our hands
thereby meaning, of course, that the apppriation of
Lis territory is all quite just and correct.
" The sickness formerly mentioned as prevalent
throughout the Punjaub continues as virulent as ever,
and numbers of deaths were occurring at every sta-
tion, more particularly the capital. At Wuzeerabad
the strength of the European troops (3d Dragoons,
10th and 24th Foot) was 2,075, of whom 250
were sick. At Sealcote, out of 372 there
were 43 in hospital. At Lahore the strength was
7.500, of whom 1,600 were on the doctor's books.
At Moultan and Peshawur matters were gloomy and
disheartening, but an appearance of some abatement
was perceptible. At Leia all the European officers
(Captain Ross, Captain Hollings, Lieutenant WNeile,
and Mr. Henderson, C.S.) were suffering—especially
the first and last. Coming down the Indus, we learn
that Sukkur and Shikarpore were still extremely un-
healthy. At Hyderabad, her Majesty's 64th were
losing numbers of men, women, and children. As-
sistant-Surgeon Shortt had also fallen a victim to the
prevailing fever—and it was feared the fate of the
Highlanders would overtake the wing if not speedily
removed from the station. Although Kurrachee is
not exactly as healthy, as is its wont, still it has little
to complain of. Mr. Frere, the Commissioner, seems
to be generally well liked ; he is mentioned as fre-
quently entertaining the society of the place at
Government House, and thus doing his best to keep
them in good humour with themselves and those
around them, and therein he shows a good deal of
sense. The people of Kurrachee are actually begin-
ning to talk of a railroad to Gharra, and this while
such a thing as a good cart road from one station to
another is never thought of.
" The Nizam's affairs are again being canvassed by
the journals; he is said to have contributed 60,0001.
as a loan to his minister of the 400,0001. paid to our
resident, and to be now dunning the unfortunate offi-
cial for its repayment, as if the debt were not his own.
The country is overrun with mercenary troops kept
up by him for the purpose of awing the unfortunate
cultivators and others into payingtany demands, how-
ever exorbitant, made upon them.
"„Colonel, or Gen. Steinbach, returns home by this
evening's steamer, having resigned the service of the
Ceshinere ruler for good and all. He has, it is be-
lieved, accumulated what will keep his nose from
freezing during the remainder of his days, even were
he to settle at the North Pole. The only intelligence
recently received from Cashmere is to the effect that
the Maharaja was still very unwell, and thae
fort of Chelas still held out against his troops as
stoutly as ever—that succour for the besieged was on
the way from Gilghit, and that it was expected the
besiegers would have to retire from before the fort.
"bl. Mansel, of the Lahore Board of Administration,
is to be Resident at Nagpore, to which Major Du •
rand has been temporarily appointed. Sir R. Shake-
speare had gone a considerable way on route to
Joudpore to take up his new and inferior appointment,
when he was overtaken by an express from the
Governor-General directing✓ him to return to Gwalior.
I presume from this that the Gallant Knight's spon-
taneous and noble conduct in publicly acknowledging
his error and apologising to Captain Close has induced
Lord Dalhousie to cancel the punishment inflicted on
him fur his conduct towards that officer. Something
serious is said to have occurred in the Gwalior Lush-
kur, in which the Maharaja is reported to be impli-
cated. Treachery and intrigue of course against us
must have been discovered; but that is nothing un-
usual. The artillery portion of the King of Oude's
army has mutinied—arrears of wages being the
cause. The sooner this puppet of a king, with his
brother puppet of Hyderabad, are pensioned, the
better for their subjects, and probably for our-
selves also.—The manner in which the trial of
Jotee Persaud was conducted has, it is believed,
brought forth a heavy rebuke from the Court of
Directors, and one member of the military board in
particular, said to be Colonel Mactier, has come in
for a large share of the displeasure. Sir R. Barlow,
of the Calcutta Adawhut, has been deputed as a
special commissioner to Agra, to inquire into and pre-
pare a report on the subject, for transmission home to
the Court.—The ship Lascar, Captain Errington,
from Hull to Calcutta, with coals, &c., was wrecked
near Sangor, on the 17th ult. ; all hands
md
asiav,ebdoubnudt
two seamen.--The American ship Saxon
for Aden with coals, was wrecked in the Mozambique
on the August.—Lord Falklaud and Sir John
Grey have gone to Mahabuleshwany—they will, it
is said, be in Bombay by the Bth pros.—Captain C.
M. Nixon, 6th NJ., is now being tried at Bombay—oa theon
charges of misappropriating 2201. odd of regimental
money, he being paymaster of his corps.
night of 25th ult., we had a terrific thunderstorm at
Bombay, during which an immense fire-ball, the
noise of which, rushing through the air, terrified
hundreds of people, fell into the sea, near the outer
light-ship. A magnificent meteor fell at Calcutta on
the night of the 19th.—The salt department is to be
placed under charge of the Collector of Customs at
the presidency. Trade has been exceedingly dull in
exports, owing to bad markets at home and the high
prices asked by dealers for their cotton.
" P.S.—The papers received this morning supply
the 'following items :—Mr. 11. H. Bell, indigo planter,
died at Agra on the 21st ult. A public dinner is to
be given at Madras to Sir G. H. Berkeley, Com-
ruander-in-Chief, previous to his departure, as a mark
of respect from society. The Madras Sepoys who fled
from before the Moplahs are to be tried by general
court-martial. Brevet Captain Gordon, 59th Bengal
N. 1., is being tried at Fort William. A floating light
on the North Sand, is the Straits of Malarea, has
been sanctioned. Captain Niblett, of the Phlegethon
steamer, gets the Enterprise, on 501. a month ; Cap-
tain Goodwin, of the Nemesis, the Phlegethon. Mr.
Reddie has been elected curator of the Public Li-
brary, vice Bethune. Captain Wright, of the barque
Success, died suddenly at Calcutta on the 22d. ult.
Tne ringleaders in the artillery mutiny at Gwalior,
have been released by the Dudbar, so I presume it
Was not deserving of the name of mutiny.

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.
BONBIY, OCT. 2.—The Overland Mail of the 25th
August came to hand en the afternoon of the 21st ult.
The arrivals from the west have been the John
O'Gaunt and the Windermere from Liverpool.
The depressed state of our import market which has
prevailed since the opening of the season has been ma-
terially added to during the last fortnight, while on the
other hand the high price at which our chief export is
held completely puts a stop to business in it for the
home markets, so that our trade with Great Britain is at
pregent in a most unsatisfactory state. Money con-
tinues to be abundant and cheap, but there is very little
employment for it.
On the 15th instant, the "Dewallee Festival" com-
mences, and there will be little business done from this
time until its termination, which occurs on the 26th

instant.
Cotton Piece Goods—ln these a considerable amount
of business has been done, taking the state of the mar-
kets into consideration. The descriptions principally
asked for have been grey goods, coarse and heavy do-
mestics; T cloth of 61b. weight and upwards, and 46 in.
33 yards long cloth, and of other kinds any sales that
have been made have been forced, so that prices have
suffered a further decline. The price of shirtings, mad-
dapolams, jacconets and light T cloth are again more in
favour of buyers. In bleached goods every thing is dull
and neglected, with the exception of jacconet frum a
medium quality upwards, and satin spots which arc in
slight request. Turkey and dyed goods are in much
the same state as when our last report was written.
Turkey red plain cloth has fallen, however, 25 in. 28
yds. best Manchester dye having been parted with at
the very low rate of Rs. 7i per piece.
Cotton Yarn—The supply has been somewhat large,
and as a continued anxiety to sell has been displayed on
the part of importers, prices both of mule and water are
below our last quotations.
Woollens—No inquiry as yet exists. Not a single
transaction has come to our knowledge, and we believe
that none has taken place.
Metals—With a single exception, all descriptions
have been quite neglected during the past fortnight, and
prices show an inclination to fall. The exception is
Swedish steel, which enjoys an inquiry sufficient to
support its value.
Cochineal—A slight inquiry exists for best quality,
but it has not led to a rise in price ; not any sales that
we have heard of.
Saffron—A supply of this has arrived, and the price
bas given way ; 4001bs. of good quality having sold at
Rs. 19 per lb.
Beer—Allsopp is selling at Rs. 60. Bass is still held
for Rs. 65 to 70, at which rate we have heard of 30
hhds. having been purchased. Of other brands 50 hhds.
Tennent's, with 25 Mids. porter by same maker, 50
hhds. Younger,
aand 30 hhds. Scarcell Brewery have all
sold at Rs. 35 per hhd.
Spirits—There is still a demand for brandy in wood,
hut in bottle dull. Gin rin both wood and bottle is also

dull.
Wine—We hear of the following sale ;-3 hhds. and
6 quarter casks gold, brown, and pale sherry per hhd. of
130 gallons, Rs. 275.
Marine Stores—Canvas, cordage, and paint, are
sometimes asked for, as linseed oil is also, but spirits of
turpentine and sewing twine are dull.
Sundries—Empty bottles are scarce and in demand.
Cotton Wool—The news from China by the last oppor-
tunity were, contrary to what was generally looked for,
favourable for this staple, and have given a decided im-
petus to buyers for that market, large purchases having
been made since the last accounts reached us. Prices
are well supported and rather incline to go in favour of
sellers; under such circumstances purchases for the
" Home Markets" are of course nearly suspended, some
small quantities are in course cf shipment on native ac-
count.
Sheep's Wool—Fresh supplies are now arriving from
Sinde and elsewhere, and the native shippers for the
English market are paying high prices.
Opium—At present holders are firm. Small purchases
are being made at our quotations for the next steamer
hence. New drug will be making its appearance among
us about the middle of the next month.
Tonnage—Freight to Great Britain is scarce, but as
the tonnage which offers is not great, rates to London
are supported at 21. 10s. per ton for gums, &c., and 21.
ss. to Liverpool for cotton. At these rates several en-
gagements have been made. To China, on the other
hand, a good deal is offering, and the rate has advanced
to Rs. 16 to Rs. 16i per Candy, at which it is firmly
maintained. A small opium clipper has just been
taken up for cotton at Rs. 17i per Candy.
EXCHANGE.—The rise which had commenced at the
date of our last report on the rate on London continued
until the eve of the arrival of the China mail. Bills from
Calcutta being brought into the market daily, at which
time it had reached 2s. Old. for six months' sight bills on
the spot, and transactions "to arrive" were done at
2s. op. at 25-01 d. per rs., but owing to a much smaller
amount of remittances having been received than was
generally expected, owing it appears to a want of late
advices from Shanghai, the rate took an immediate turn
downwards, and soon reached Is. 'lid., at which it re-
mained for a day or two, when it began to rise again, and
has since gradually advanced to 2s. Op. to 2s. O'd. per
rupee at 'mix months' sight, and at which it has been
pretty steady for some days past.
On Calcutta the rate is 100} per 100, and on China
221 at 222 per 100 dolls., 60 days' sight.
THE MONEY MARKET.—WO ' have no alteration to
report in the state of the money market. Government
Securities and Bank Shares maintain their value.—Daily
News.

THE GREAT EXHIBITION.
The Royal Commissioners have, we understand,
voted a sum of 2,7001. for the police force employed
in the Crystal Palace. Mr. Pearce, the superintend-
ent, receives 3001., the inspectors 1501. each, and the
sergeants and men a handsome gty, cording to
their proportions of pay, while 5001. goes to the police
fund. This fund must now be considerable in amount,
and the public would like to have some information
about it. Shortly after the Chartist demonstrations
of April, 1848, a sum of nearly 1,700/. was raised
by subscription to reward the services oof f the force
during that trying period. A portion this was
distributed among the men at the time, and the rest
has, we suppose, been invested in the funds, in ac-
cordance with the provisions of the Metropolitan Po-
lice Act. How the matter stands we are unable at
present to say, but the Secretary of State for the
Home Department, having his attention directed to
the subject by the liberality of the Royal Commission,
and being charged with the responsibility, may per-
haps be induced to inquire.
The officers of Engineers at the Crystal Palace,
following the example of their chief, Sir William
Reid, have declined the pecuniary remuneration

In some unaccountable manner an impression has
got abroad that the service medals to be issued by
the Royal Commission are to be in gold. They, like
the three other classes of medals, are all, in compliance
with the late Sir Robert's Peel's suggestion, to be
executed in bronze.—Times.

" THE DEATH•FLAG."—OIr readers will be grati-
fied to hear that Miss Crumpe, a native of this city, and well
known as the highly-gifted author of "Geraldine of Des-
mond," is about to publish a new work, under the above
startling title. he subject of it has not transpired, but it is
said to be of an historical character, and to abound in inci-
dents and events of the most remarkable and exciting kind,
which cannot fail to awaken the liveliest interest and curi-
osity.—Limerich Chronicle.

provement Commissioners gave the occupiers of the houses
