THE BOMBAY MAIL.

We have received, by-the Overland Mail, advices
and papers from,Bombay to the 11th September-.
The following summary of news is from the Bom-
bay Gazette of the 10th' ult.:—
Since the departure of the last mail we have had,
further accounts from China, but they do not con-I
tarn any additional facts. NO one belieVes that thel
affair at the mouth of the Peiho was in accordance;
with fair play, and as there is now every prosptet
of a war with China, the loss of a large portion of
the ex-Company's troops cannot be regal ded. as of
little consequence. The rum have seized the oppor-
tunity presented to them of raking their; discharge
and returning home. Several of the regiments have
almost disappeared; others are seriously weakened in
numbers ; and the effect to foreign eyes must he
that English soldiers are too selfishito care for the.
defence of their country or her ;flag. At the same
time that theY are going to England, one or two
regiments are-on their ,way to China, and others
will probably follow, so that- in another month
there will be.a considerable reduction of the arnly.
The prospect of enlistment in the militia that was
being formed in England no doubt induced a good
many of the soldiers to avail themselves of the
option of taking their discharge ; but it does not
seem that the cessation of war in Europe has led
them to change their minds. The defection of the
troops continues.
Although but little news has arrived from the
districts traversed by the rebels, what little there
is shows that there is yet work for our troops, and
the campaign must be resumed at the close of the
monsoon. The Nana and the Begun .are yet in
Nepaul, and' the disturbed condition of the neigh-
bouring country is deserving of serious attention.
It was said some time ago that they ,were Worn out,
and suffering intensely from want of food. But it
does seem as if they had no intention of abandoning
their stations on the north.of Oude, and if an eye
is not kept on their movements they will be con-
stantly plundering our own territories, and oppress-
ing the villagers. In Central India Feroze Shah and
the troops that follow him. have also to be hunted
down. Their base of operations at ,present is the
fortress of Seronj, and their incursions on the west-
ern borders of Bundelcund are a source of constant
annoyance and trouble to the inhabitants.
A lamentable circumstance has happened at
Mundlaisir, a small town aboout 40 miles from
Mhow. 'The prisoners in the gaol overpowered the
guard, effected their escape, closed the gates of the
fort, and opened a heavy fire on those outside. A
detachment of the 19th was soon on the spot, and
it was while setting an example of conspicuous
bravery to his men that Capt. Hawes fell mortally
wounded.
The attitude of . the Waghers on the coast of
Kattywar has been somewhat warlike of late. Vast
military preparations are being made, but whether
they will come to anything remains to be seen. The
fortified village of Bussing is about 30. miles from
Dwarka, and is inhabited by Waghers, who have
thought proper to resist the authority-of the Gui-
cowar. They have several leaders, but one Jodho
Muneek seems to be supreme in all thingS. They
first occupied Dwarka, then the village of Wur-
wuda, which is mostly inhabited by the Battiah
merchants of Bombay. The island of Beyt next
fell into their hands ; the chief attraction here was
the harbour, which affords a good refuge during
the monsoon to vessels on their way to, and from
Kutch and Kurrachee. All those that were in the
harbour at the time were plundered, and the inha-
bitants have also suffered an immense loss, for their
houses were searched and stripped of all that was
worth having. They are straining every nerve to
defend the towns and villages in their possession,
and claim Dwarka and the neighbouring districts
as their own. An insurrection seems to be immi-
nent, for bands of armed men, it is stated, are col-
lecting from all sides: A sin 111 force is
to be in
readiness at Kutch to march against them, and
will take the field under the command of Captain
Murray.
The officers and men who served in the Persian
campaign of 1856-57 have been presented with
medals here, at Ahmednuggur and Kurrachee.
In the Legislative Council Mr. Harrington, has
read a bill on the new tax by means of a Govern-
ment license for carrying on trades or profes-
sions. We have just seen the discussion that has
transpired on the second reading of this bill, from
which we learn that a great difference of opinion
prevails on the subject among the members of the
Legislative Council. All persons unconnected with
the Government service are considered persona
carrying on trades, and are taxed accordingly ; the
public servants are to obtain exemption from the
tax. There is, perhaps, no injustice in this, as the
latter will probably be called on to pay in another
shape---give a portion of their salary to the Govern-
ment. It remains to be seen, however, if the
threatened clipping will be carried into effect. The
Bengal civilians had addressed a memorial to the
Secretary of State, protesting against the proposed
reduction of their salaries.
It is reported that the people of Jeypoor will not
comply with the disarming order. The efforts of
the British authmities to induce them to surrender
their arms have not effected the desired result. It
is likely that a force will enter Jeypoor to enforce
the demand. It seems the Maharajah is willing to
give up his own sword, but declares his inability
to induce the people to follow his example.
Intelligence has been received of the wreck of
the ship Admiral Boxer, off the Petty, north of the
Indus, 14 miles from Kurrachee; all hands saved.
The captain of the Admiral Boxer reports another
ship dismasted, apparently abandoned, ashore close
to where she wa i wrecked. Steamers hive been
sent of to assist and obtain further information.

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.
REPORT ON THE BOMBAY MARKET.
IMPORT MARKET.
COTTON MANUPACTUR ES.There have been very few
arrivals during the fortnight, and the rainy season having
not yet closed, only a moderate amount of business has been
transacted.

WINES AND SPIRITS.—Owing to the heavy prices there
no chance of a rise at present. A limited amount of busi-
ness has been transacted at former prices.
COALS.—Supplies are now pouring in, which has caused
a further decline in prices.

EXPORT MARKET.
COTTON.—Since ourlast report the demand has slackened
very much, probably owing to the want of stock of superior
quality, as well as the discouraging adyices from home.
Prices have receded from two to three rupees per candy.
Favourable accounts continue to be received regarding the
coming crop.
WooL.—Superior qualities are scarcely to be obtained,
and higher prices are asked. The market has a limited sup-
ply of inferior qualities.
OILSEEDS.—Seeds are steady, with very little business
doing. Linseed and rapeseed are in request at former prices.
Teel seeds, Niger seed, and ground nuts are scarce and
higher.

COFFEE.—Malabar is out of stock. Very high prices are
asked for the few parcels of Mocha at market.
OPIUM.—A speculative demand during the fortnight has
caused a rise in the price of opium, which is now quoted at
rs 1355 to rs 1360 per chest. The steamer Singapore, which
sailed for China on the 20th ult., carried about 600 chests.
FRElGHTS.—Freights have varied but little during the
fortnight. To Liverpool the rates are 12s 6d to £l, and to
London, 12s 6d to 17s 6d per ton. To China, rs 3 to rs 3- ;
and to Mauritius, rs 21 to rs 3 per candy.
MONEY MARKET AND EXCHANGE.—Our money market
has exhibited no alteration ; and the rates of discount for
government and private securities, as last reported, remain
at 5 and per 7 cent. respectively. Exchange advanced some-
what after the close of our last advices ; but we have had a
slight decline in the rates during the last few days, and our
present quotations are 2s 16d for first-class six months'
sight bills, and 2s 11-d for document paper. On Calcutta,
at sight, 981 per cent. On Madras, at 30 days' sight, 99
per cent. On Hong Kong, at 60 days' sight, rs 22S por 100
dollars.

NAVIGATION OF THE INDIM —A very interesting
Report on the Navigation of the Indus has just been made
to the Directors of the Oriental Inland Steam Company, by
Mr. Bourne, the managing director of that undertaking, by
which it appears that the steam trains despatched by the
company to Kurrachee, at the beginning ofthepresaevnot
year, have been already placed upon the Indus,
foundwhich

had Mr.
Bourne states, of a very bad quality, and where this oc-
curred the steam could not be kept up, and the progress was
slow. But where the fuel was good the progress was quite
satisfactory, and the train ascended and descended the river
in safety. The various adverse statements relative to the
performance of the train, which have been so industriously
circulated in England by rival and hostile parties, turn out
to be quite untrue ; and it appears that much of the animo-
sity manifested has arisen from the work of establishing
these trains having been pressed forward with such unpre-
cedented rapidity, and from their having answered so much
better than their opponents had I,redieted. It isnuite ob-
vious that the officers of the Government vessels now plying
on the river, and also of the various freight agents which
profit by the existing arraugments, would be naturally up
in arms to oppose and decry vessels of this character. For
with such vessels, carrying as they will do an immense
cargo, the existing vessels cannot possibly compete; and as
they must consequently be withdrawn, Othello's occupation
will be gone. The more, however, such parties cry out,
the more effectual we may believe is the skill and vigour
used against them. The only doubt which could ever be
reasonably entertained respecting these trains was, whether
they could really thread the creeks and navigate the river
with safety. That they can do this, experience has now de-
monstrated ; and though there may still be small faults to
amend and small imperfections to remedy, the main fact is
conclusively established, that these trains are in reality suc-
cessful and practically applicable to the river in its present
condition. As to the rest, every one may see that vessels
capable of carrying a very large cargo must be much more
profitable than vessels capable of carrying only a verysmall
cargo ; and, in fact, no human agency can prevent the
large carrying vessels from having the complete command
of the navigation. Here, therefore, these steam trains have
taken up an impregnable position; and although their in-
troduction may be attended with greater difficulties than
common vessels,yet,When introduced, the whole difficulties
of the undertaking have been surmounted, and the com-
pany's position is rendered unassailable. If the common
class of vessels had been employed, the new company might
have Lira a long neck and neck race with its rivals, and it
woul ave stood on no ground of.vantage. But carrying
as these trains will do, so very much mere than common
vessels, rivalry and competition become quite impoisible to
maintain.
