'E BERHII2I.?ORE DISARDIAMF,NT.
The followiug is from 13erhsmpore, dated Atig. 2:
The ritearner4 I\trz ,re and Calcutta, with her
90th Light L-fi,Ltry, arrived here at 2 pr.

Great aporebeneions were entertained that the troops
here, the 63rd N.J. and 11th Irregular Cavalry, would
rise on the night previous, and this feeling appears to
have extended to the bazaar people, who report that
the conduct of the troops was boastful and insolent when
referrieg to the British power, to coerce them to resign
their arms. All doubt on this score has now been
allayed, and they have r.ceived ample proof of the utter
inabi•ity ct Sepove to stand their ground when con-
fronted with our European soldiers.
Col n;1 Cempbell, C. 8., ire command of the 90th
7sseed orders immediately on arrival of the steamers for
the regiment to disembark under arms at 4 o'cleci,, and
I believe it was arranged with the principels here—
Celonel flaneyngte,n, commanding the station, and
C.ap sin Alexae&r, the Irregulars—that the troops
f-euld be ordered out on general parade. The iafantry
:cad the ghat, the steamers were arch; red at about
a mile in distance, with the paradegroued, a flee maiden,
b-tweeu. Tee cavalry lines are some two miles behind
the infantry.
Tie entire regiment of 11. M. 90th heti-disembarked,
and were in fu!l march towards the lii'antry Linea, by
hel'-pa:t four o'clock, under a very heavy slower of
rain, w tech, however, diel not appear to discomfort the
Wien inueb, who were in great spirits at the prospect of
a cohieion with the jet bhaes of the murderers of defence-
lese women and cbileren. On approaching the lines, the
Native lefeutry were observed to have been arraeged in
a f quere, and H. M. 90 h divided off into three columns,
so placed as to interce,,t any attempt at a retreat. After
the re.eiing of the Government Order, the command to
pill arms was given, and responded to withour demur.
Many of the muskets on inspection were discovered to
be leaded. I inu,t here mention 'that two brass light
fi7ld pit ces had been sent out to the lines, manned by
sailors from the Government,steamer Juana, which has
been lying here f-r seine four days. The niuskete of the
disarmed eepoys having,' been taken possession of by a
c►nipar,y of the 90th, were placed in possession of the
guns, and the regeeent then marched on to the direr-
teen of the cavalry lines, from tehich the Irregulars were
-een to advance. Oa approaching- to within a distance
of about SOO yards from the European regiment, they
di-mounted, and on a nearer approach, were snr-
n nedel by the 90 h. Their commander, Captain
Alex ender, then communicated the instructions from
Government, for their being disarmed, when
there was a very apparent stir amongst them, and two
aetempts made to remount their horses ; a good
nurnher gaining their seats, but a flank. of the 90th
advancing towards them, and the rest being so arranged
as to cut their retreat off, they were got into order again.
Some of the men were actually seen to load, but whetter
from the want of unailmity, or more probab'y the dread
of the splendid body of men confronting them, their in-
ten io, s were not carried in- o effect.

,Oa the order being given to deliver up their arms and
accoutrements, many of the men absolutely flung their
pistols, b,lts, &c., into the air, and en the whole, al-
though they did deliver up their arms, they manifrste I
the utmost diseffection. They had, however, to endure
a stall greater surprise, and one which they were esi
dently not prep: red for, and that was the seizere of their
horses, whic'a bAnie their own property they thought
would not be taken free them. Tne latter were taken
eft to the hospital-yard, roan I which and several other
pucka bulidiogs there is the enclosure of a pucka
The 200 men of her Majesty's 35th, stationed here, were
eneeged.in disarming the guards at their thfftrent posts.
Thus ended the aemsernents of the evenieg. I must not
cant to ineetion that whilst the colonel tied efficars or
the 90th with their teen wereall oat during the rain and
up to overly nine o'clock at night, and had the entire
job of piecing the arms and horses within the enclosure
above referred to, many of the station staff and native
iag.mentli officers walked off quitaly to their mess ; in-
deee, hew!: miet be said, in no way flattering to them,
if a comparison were to be drawn between them arid the
orl.ry end soldier-Lke baring arid conduct o the Eine-
peen reitnent.
L is pleasing to tecird the fact that all the men of
this splendid re invent are in capital health and spirits,
arid no sieltn.s; wha ever on board ; the steaeners, al
thouh crowded, are wsli ventilated, everytlAng, in fact,
is good, but the Commissariat arraneements, which, as
'sea!, are infaanus ; the bread being the very worst
that can be ialagieed, and the biscuits no better ; the
attret t o itiviy black and toagotty.
0,:e• Ecropean soldiers must net be sacrificed to offi-

for the u ter inlffereece displayed by all parties who are
c enacted with this departweet. Let it be borne in
d tee value which should be attached to the life
of tee ty Eeropean Foldize- in toe present times, and I
confident the disregerd hitherto shown lor their
cements eill call for the immediate notice of the Go

.COMMERCIAL REPORT.
CALCUTTA, AUG. 7.

Oar last was dated the 20th thirno, we have since
rece.ved co:nrnercial news from house to 26 h Juno
which is generally rAther satitfactory.
Our pro uce market has shown no symptoms of im-
prevenient since our la,t—business has been, with few
exceptica..s, to the same limited e`xteLt as before ; the
stat, of the cotr try being stilt unsettled, cril the in-
sz-curity in th,, transit, hose tended to keep I,ff euppliss
fr,m tie market ; pricesi consequently, are sal ruling
hie), and th-ra is le,s eagernes3 shown oa the part of
slii!.,ptr.-; to op rate.
Manuracl.u•ing of Indigo is going on thr ueiont
Ceig:l.l and Tirhoot ; compl tint.; of too "much rain
are being t'aily received, which has reduced the cxpecta
ii is of the planters. Accounts train B,ltar, Benares,
and the Dab are veVy discouraging. Very latio is•
expenttA from those di,,tricts. Pluirtering and destruc-
ti )n continue unabAed, and many factories are said to
have bon deserted by the plat:vers. A: this s ate ot
Wogs, we think it .vill be too premature to form a oor
rent t e•-t.Ct •)1 the crop,; it will, no doubt, howevir, be

hurt of that of la6CFeasov.
Oar unrort. into het 'has been in much the same Etat,-

I,i piece go/els, bli,iceft,i has been principally
confined to grey si,irtings, mainpolams and j tcone:s, the
favorable rate of rxohaege having in some degree in-
duced holders to effect sales at slii4htly lower rates ; but
we thick, en the wh,,le, there has been mud' I-mei-was
t.bown aA some degree of prudence in refraining from
pa,krug stocks ; as in so doing, they wool i have trate•
rirlly tiepreciated the value of good,. We rema k that
the s les of grey good, a'though large, have b. en only
to the (x',:ent cf ac:.ual requi!ements. In breached goods,
there has been a very limited businesa, par ieularly in
lii!ht Scotch fabrics, and prices of most (lesctiptione are
tfictninal. _ _ _ _

MS, •••••-•.••
woorens there is Etill nothing doing, there being
no hovers f,r the upper provinces. In ineta!s the market
couiinu, s inactive iu the absence of buyers. Prices of
some assortments have slightly declined ; holders, hoW-
ever, are re'raining from selling, excepting in very small
psreAg, when actually needed for immediate local re-
quirement.
The money market remains much the same as last re-
port.,,,. Large amount of capital remains unemployed
in the bazaar.
Government Securities have fluctuated a lit le ; and
business has been done to a very limited scale, little
lisp sition being shown for investment r speculation.
There I as been a greater desire to raise money on de-
-1 po‘it rather than force sales at the ruling rates, which
are—
Sicca, 4 per ct. 17 8 to 18 0 per cent. dia.
Company's 4 „ 17 otol7 8 „ ditto
Public Works Loan, 5 „ 90to , 9 8 ditto
Tfaio-fer, 4 „ nominal.
FICLIANGE ON LONDON.—The business done for this
rnt.l nas been rather less than usual, in con !equence of
the limited wants of piece goods remittmees. The rate

were in small amounts. The greater part of the bust-
