OFFICIAL DESPATCH.

The following telegram from Mr. Acting Consul-
General Green was received at the Foreign-office,
August 7, 5.30 a.m.
ALEXANDRIA, AUGUST 3, 1858.

The steamer Bengal arrived at Suez from Calcutta,
and brings the following dates :—Calcutta, July 2 ;
Madras, 10 ; Galle, 14; Aden, 26; Hong Kong,
June 23.

On the Ist July the rebels were 40 miles from
Jeypore, near Lallsahoont, and General Roberts's
fo:ce was only 34 miles distant from Jeypore the

same day.
The allied expedition in the Peiho has reached
Tiensin, from whence the last date is June 4.
No serious attempt was made by the Chinese to
impede the navigation of the river, and the gunboats
advanced to Tiensin, which commands both river and
the great canal, without a mark of hostility. The
people supply provisions of excellent quality cheaply.
The English and French Ambassadors were living on
shore in a temple ; the Russians and Americans had
followed the Allies up the river; the second officer
of the Empire, and the President of one of the six
koards of Government had arrived in Tiensin to
negotiate ; they are invested with a title which
the interpreter describes to convey full powers, and
profess their readiness to treat on the demands
put forward in the letter to the Prime Minister of
China, which had been previously ignored. The
first interview was to take place on the 4th June,
after the departure of the steamer. The Chinese
continue to consider the proceeding as something be-
tween peace and war, but not exactly one or the
other. H.M. ship Princess Royal is anchored of
Alexandria; the Colombo has beenplaced in quaran-
tine. Malta being subjected [have] ?to five days'
quarantine, in obedience to the decision of the Board
of Health of Constantinople, the Colombo obtains
pratique to morrow, and leaves with homeward
mails on the sth instant.

Corfu, August 6, 9.45 p.m.
The following despatch has also been re ceived:—
ALEXANDRIA, AUG. 3.

The India and China mails have arrived, but will

homeward-bound steamer having been put in quar-

antine.

The dates are from Calcutta, July 5; Madras;
July 10; Hong Kong, June 22; Galle, July 14;
and Aden, July 26. _ _

The Gwalior fugitives were reported to be fifty
miles from Jeypore, and General Roberts was only
34 miles from Jeypore on the same day. _

There was a report of Tirowan, in Banda, being
captured, as also the rebel leaders Couginda Noo-
bareddy of Caratoge, Corla Signareddy, and Rajah

in extension of our operations. At Canton the alarm

She brings specie valued at $751,651 98c., and
26,9457. sterling.

Oa the 28th the Araerics passed the Royal Ma:
steamer Canada, hence for Boston.

A report has obtained currency at New York that
Vera Cruz has been bombarded by the Spanish
fleet, but it was not believed to be true.

New York commercial advices of the 26th report
more activity in commercial affairs. There was
additional confidence on the Stock Exchange and
in the discount market. The closing rates were :
—For Missouri Sixes, 851 ; New York State Sixes
of '73, 113 ; New York Central, 80i ; Eerie, 21R- ;
Panama, 90 ; and Erie Convertibles of '7l, 42.
Money continued easy, and a few loans on call had
been made at 4 per cent., although the ordinary
rate was sto 6 per cent. The Bank statement was
again favourable, there being a further increase in
the specie department. The market for sterling
exchange, closed strong, and bankers' bills were
firmly held at 1091 0 110. Bills on France
were quoted at 5 181 to 5 121. Cotton had be-
come dull, at a very slight reduction in price.
'Flour was quieter. Wheat firmer. Iron dull.
Tobacco dull. Sugar and molasses, which had
been dull and lower, closed firmer. There was
rather more movements in freights. The southern
cotton markets were active, at advancing prices.
The Europa had arrived at New York.

LIVERPOOL, TUESDAY MORNING.

Steam Company's vessel Kangaroo, hence, arrived
at New York ou the 27th of January, making the
voyage in 14 days.
London, England, 1858-02-09

There was no present intention to send more cavalry
out to India, and it was impossible now to state what
addition would be made to the cavalry, because it greatly
depended on the course of events. The home Govern-
ment would not send horses by the men.
CAPTURE OF THE CAGLIARI.

Mr. RIDLEY asked the First Lord of the Treasury
whether her Majesty's Government had received a copy
of a despatch, dated the 16th day of January, sent by
the Sareinian Government to the Government of Naples,
on the question of the illezal capture of the Cagliaii
steamer and her crew ; and, if so, whether it was in-
tended to lay a copy of that despatch on the table I f
the house ? Also, whether the views of her
Majesty's Government coincided with those of
Count Cavour ; and, if so, what course they proposed to
take in pursuance of those views.

Lord PALMERSTON said that a confidential despatch
such as that alluded to bad been received by her
Majesty's Government from the Sardinian Govern-
ment, and also some documents drawn up by
the Neapolitan Government, forming the act
of accusation against the parties to be brought for trial.
Certain questions were pending between the Sar.
dinian and Neapolitan Governments as to the locality
where the Cagliari was seized, to which the attention of
the law officers of her Majesty's Government bad been
directed. Ile asked not t) be pressed to lay the papers
before the house at present.

ictc.e--;
French, No. 250 K, was passing the house, 25, Brook-
street, and bearing a noise in the cellar, went in and
saw the prisoner.tbere and asked him his business and
what he was doing. The prisoner made a trumpery
excuse and was taken into custody, It was afterwards
discovered that the lead pipe which passed through the
cellar to the rear of the premises bad been removed,
and cut and bent into small portable pieces. The
pipe had been fixed to the wall, and was cut away and
raised on the window ledge at the back of the house.
The lead was produced and identified by Mr. Francis
Tindale, auctioneer, of No. 1, Portland-place, Coramer-
cial-road East.
A police-sergeant said the prisoner was an old offender,
and had been already convicted for depredations in the
bulky article of lead.
The prisoner was committed for trial.
Peter .Flurley, an Irish boy, aged
16, was charged
with stealing 341bs. of lead pipe, and two brass taps.
He was stopped iu the Corntnercial-road, at half-past 6
o'clock this mornit g, by John Stretton, a police-con-
stable, No. 104 K, with the pipe and taps in his
possession.
The prisoner was sentenced to two months' imprison-
ment and hard labour.

pletely from M. da Poriiguy, while at the aamo time we give
him full credit for the elevated sentiments and the disinte-
restedness of which he has on more than one occasion given
striking proof& Tha exaggeration of those qualities, which
are always an ornament and a virtue in a man in private
life, is sometimes injurious to the safety of the coup d'ced
of political men. It is, however, pleasing to meet a warm-
hearted, straightforward man in one's path, even when he
does not appreciate many things as we do."

feverish. Forced purchases for several speculators

SCULLERS' RACE FOR FORTY POUNDS.

A scullers' race came off yesterday between Thomas
Coombes, of Millbank, and Frederick Lett, men who were
In their time good scullers, and have had several antagonistic
conflicts, but who have not been rowing for several years.
The distance was from Putney to Barnes. The steamboat
Venus, which was well filled, accompanied the race. Lett
had the best place, but his opponent went away with the
lead, which he maintained, winning ultimately with ease.
The roughness of the weather militated very much against
Lett, who, however, throughout rowed one of the best stern
wagers ever seen. Both were in fine condition and rowed
well.
