FUTTEHPORE.

The garrison at Futtehpore, between Allahabad
and Cawnpore, have been obliged to leave their
intrenchments, and take up another position.
Benares is also threatened by a force from Jaun-
pore, and a brigade was to leave on the 2d Decem-
ber, to reinforce the Jaunpore one. It is said the
insurgents in the neighbourhood of Jaunpore are
20,000 and 40 guns strong, while the force round
Futtehpore is abod 8,000 to 10,000.

The Friend of India, of the 26th Alt. says that
the following are sentences inscribed on the walls
of the "massacre room" at Ca.wnpore :
Here we are, 250 persons, in this little place ;
here we lie in filth. We shall all be killed in two
dais' time, and may God avenge the slayers of
innocent blood !

O God, take us into thy Holy Tabernacle.
Signed, Mi9s C.S., aged 18 years.
2. Revenge 1 Revenge ! countrymen, for the
lives of your country-fellows.

COMMERCIAL.
BOMBAY, DEC 24.

We have no material eange to report in our money
market during the past six days ; the banks are acting
cautiously, and the rates of interest charged by them
remain unchanged. Government and other securities
are without change.
IMPORTS.—COTTON PIECE GOODS.—The prices in the
market have generally declined. Holders are effecting
forced sales at low rates ; and the business transacted
during the few days of report has been, in consequence,
to a comparatively greater extent than before. There
has been a general decline in shirtings of all desorip-
tions—except ,bleached shirtings, grey long cloth, and
grey domestics—from two to three anoas per piece.
EXPORTS.—COTTON.—No purchases have been made by
European firms. In consequence of much speculation at
present among the native dealers, the rates, contrary to
expectation, have not declined, notwithstanding the re-
ceipt of last advises from England. Our quotations
yesterday were as follows :—Broaoh and Surat, re.
135-38 ; Dhollera, rs. 140 ; OorneravuLtee, re. 130 ;
Bargee, rs. 125 ; Khandeisb, re. 114 ; Compta, re. 122 ;
and Dharwar Sawginned, re. 155.
TONNAGE.—Tonnage is abundant in the harbour ;"and,
the arrivals being numerous, the rates are likely to give
way. We quote to-day 1/. 103. to 1/. 12s. 6d. for Lon-
don, and 1/. 7e. 6J. to It. 103. for Liverpool.
Exchange has not been in much request for this
steamer. "First class bills have sold for 2s. 2d,, and
Document paper at 24. 20, On Calcutta, sight, 100 k,
On China, 60 days' sight, 215.

PARIS, MONDAY.

The examinations relative to the attempt to as-
sassinate the Emperor aro so far a•lvanced that the
report may be presented to the Chambre de Mise
en Accusation the day after tomorrow by M.
Treilhard, the Jug° d'lnstruction. The state of
Orsini's health is such that it will be completely
cured by the end of the month.

A bill is about to be presented to the Corps Le-
gi4latif for granting pensions to the victims of the
the attack at the Opera, on Thursday night, and to
their families.

The projectiles used to assassinate the Emperor
have been examined by a commission composed of
artillery officers. It has been ascertained that they
are charged with fulminating mercury. They each
produce from 70 to 75 explosions. It may easily
be imagined what destruction they might occasion.
