Our Indian. Army.

By Captain Rafter, Author

of " The Gu'ards,' (47:c.- David Brice.
At the present epoch of excitement and painful
interest respecting our Indian Empire, we may ex-
pect a large number of histories and narratives re-
lating in some way to the scene of action. The
present volume is a very useful specimen of this
class of works, as it gives, in a full and authentic
manner, a military history of the Dri•ish Empire in
the East. The author justly remarks in the pre-
face, that the general ignorance on this subject is
astonishing ; awl, feeling that at the present time
a more general knowledge was highly adviseable,
he has endeavoured to give in a popular form an
ac ount of the progress of our arms during the last
century. This attempt is likely to be successful,
and to be a useful volume of reference to those
already acquainted with the subject, as well as for
enlightening the ignorant on this important topic. •

MONETARY AFFAIRS.

While the sta.' e of affairs at Delhi still remains in
suspense, and everything connected with the Indian
outbreak is demanding public attention, the silent
effect of our pernicious monetary system is making
itself extensively felt.
The decrease of bullion in the bank, according to
last week's return, was only trifling (18,3951.), but
the amount of the active circulation is now reduced
to 19 547 440/.

A decline in the funds and in all securities has
taken place.
The Colombo, which departed for the East on
Thursday, was to take out nit le -_:s than 1,250,0001.
for China and. India—and the whole amount re-
mitted since the commencement of this year to
these countries will thus be raised to 12,500,000/.
about. . _

It thus appears that not only does our present
monetary system expose us to constant fluctua-
tions and depressions arising from the export of
gold from the Bank, but that we are also liable to
these ill effects from the unsound monetary legisla-
tion of other countries.
We ret lin our own silver 'becalm the rate at
which it is coined into money renders our coin au
unpeofitable article of commerce. -But France ttnd
other countries have not reduced their silver coin-
age in proportion to ours, and it therefore pays to
export silver from them, and to purchase silver
for exportation gold is withdrawn by those coun-
tries from the Bank of England.
Put gold at 'its market price, and foreigners
would•no longer be able for their own convenience
or profit to diminish our circulation, raise our rate,
of interest, and disarrange all our commercial trans-
actions. But till this is done, we are at the mercy
of foreign merchants, and of any train of circum-
stances by which our stock of bul!icn may become
an article of profitable export.ition.—Derl;ysl4ire

THE INDIA AND CHINA MAILS.

SOUTHAMPTON, SUNDAY.
The Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation
Company's steam-ship Indus, Capt. Evans, reached
Southampton this day, at nine o'clock, with the
heavy portion of the East India and China mails,
and 110 passengers. Her dates of sailing were—
Alexandria Aug. 7 ; Malta, 11th ; Gibraltar, 16th.
The freight of the Indus consists of 1,438 bales
and cases of silk, 17 barrels of gum, 23 packages
of elephants' teeth, 1 package of pearls, 6 packages
of tobacco, and 260 packages of sundries.
On the 14th. inst., at 3 a.m., off Algiers, the
Indus came into collision with the screw steam-ship
Florence Nightingale, from Sunderland to Constan-
tinople. The Florence Nightingale struck the In-
dus on the starboard fore sponson, carried away her
bowsprit, and also stove in her bows. As the Flor-
ence Nightingale leaked the Indus took her in tow to
Algiers and left her close to that port. The Indus
received no damage. The night was fine and moon-
iight. The Florence Nightingale had masthead but
no side lights.
Her Majesty's screw ship Desperate and paddle
steamers Tartarus and7Caradoc were at Alexandria.
The Hibernia and Centaur were at Malta; and
the Vulture and Ariel at Gibraltar.

ARMY PAY.

Col. FREEST UN gave notice that early next ses-

for an increase of the pay of captains and subalterns in
the regular army.
RUSSIA AND THE BLACK SEA.

Viscount RAYNHAIII asked the nobis lord (Lord
Palmerston) if it was true that, in violation of the treaty
of Paris, Russia had sent a large naval force into the
Black ea to operate against the Circassians ?
Lord PALMERSTON said that, independently of
the treaty of Paris, Turkey, by the treaty of Adrianople,
ceded the east coast of the Black Sea to Russia. Russia
was at present engaged in hostilities with the Circas•
sians on the northern part of that coast, where she had
sent some of her cruisers she was entitled to keep in the
Black Sea to co-operate against them. He did not ap-
prehend that by so doing Russia had exceeded her
powers.
The Lords' amendments to the Joint-Stock Companies
Amendment Bill and the Probate and Letters of Admi-
nistration (Ireland) Bill were considered and agreed to.
ADJOURNMENT OF THE HOUSE.

Lord PALMERSTON moved that the house at its
rising adjourn till to-morrow at two o'clock.

Agreed to.
Numerous returns having been ordered, and some
other business disposed of, the house adjourned at a
quarter to four o'clock.

will delay for a considerable period the full effect
of the improved regulations. But it will prevent
any very serious demand on the Exchequer dur-
ing a single year, and it will leave no ground for
grumbling to any person whatsoever. On the
whole, it seem to us to combine the most judicious
and eligible principles without allowing any per-
son whatsoever a reasonable ground of complaint,
and we should, therefore, gladly witness its adop-
tion by the executive. All future appointments
without purchase might also be made liable to
such conditions as Parliament may, at any future
time, be pleased to impose. The parties should
not be deemed to have any vested in,terest to de-
lay required reforms, or to entitle them to demand
compensation for any future changes that may be
deemed expedient.

THE NEWS FROM INDIA.

The non-receipt of the Indian telegraph leads to
an impression that the steamer from Calcutta may
again have been.detained by order of the Governor-
General. The last and preceding steamers were
detained respectively four days and one day.
The Peninsular and Oriental Company have au-
thorized their agents at Malta to allow the packets
bringing the Marseilles portion of the homeward
Indian mails to touch at Cagliari on their passages
from Malta to Marseilles, in case the Admiral on
the station should be desirous of transmitting from
that point a telegraphic summary of the intelligence.
This arrangement will in no way interfere with the
due arrival of the steamers at Marseilles, but will
afford the advantage to the government and the
pu'ulic of at lca3t 24 hours' earlier reception of
news by means of the tel.egraphic wires from

It will be seen by the above return, which has
been gleaned from the last official returns of the
Honourable East India Company-, that there were,
at the outbreak of the revolt, 5,249 British officers
on the Indian ee,tablislimeut of the three presi-
dencie, while the body of the European forces
consisted of 43,149 warrant officers, non coMmis-
sioned officers, and rank and file. The native
army, on the other baud, including the police,
amounted to 288,569 of all ranks. To the fatter
must be added, according to the same official
authorities, the standing armies maintained in
time of peace, according to treaties, by the several
independent native princes in alliance with the
British Government, 393,918.
If we make allowance for officers on leave in
England, and for other casualties, and, on the
other hand, take into consideration the number of
civilians at different stations, we may se% down the
number of 50,000 as a fair estimate of the English-
men who wera in India at the time of the outbreak.
On the other hand, we sea that 687,514 native 8,11-
diers of all grades were accounted for, a proportion
of about one European to every fifteen native-.
Thee are fearful odds, as the Englishmen were
scattered over an area of more than a million square
miles.—Advertiser.

THE NEWS FROM INDIA.

The non-receipt of the Indian telegraph leads to
an impression that the steamer from Calcutta may
again have been detained by order of the Governor-
General. The last and preceding steamers were
detained respectively four days and one day.
The Peninsular and Oriental Company have au-

. _
thorized their agents at Malta to allow the packets
bringing the Marseilles portion of the homeward
Indian mails to touch at Cagliari on their passages
from Malts to Marseilles, in case the Admiral on
the station should be desirous of transmitting from
that point a telegraphic summary of the intell;gence.
This arrangement will in no way interfere with the
due arrival of the steamers at Marseilles, but will
afford the advantage to the government and the
pu
• •
lllic of at least 24 hours' earlier reception of
news by means of the telegraphic wires from
Cagliari.

THE REVOLT IN INDIA.-THE ARMY.

Facts and figures are ugly things. They stare at
us with immovable features, and tell an irresistible
tale of our errors. When we ponder over a return
such as the following, we nearly come to the con-
clusion that we must have been mad all along or
to`ally blind, to have called an arm into life which
was intended for our enemies, but which has now
turned out to be a double-edged sword, whose
backhanded blows are draining our best blood.
One thing is certain, the Bengal Army, which has
ceased to exist, must be buried, and that for ever.

SALE OF POIS.ONS BILL.

Lord CAMPBELL said, seeing his noble friend the
President of the Council in his place, he begged to ask
him what course was intended. to be pursued with re-
up set to this bill.
Earl GRANVILLE said that the committee to which
the bill had been referred had received a great deal of
evidence of a conflicting character. After giving the
subject their best consideration, some more alterations
had been made in the bill ; and, under these circum-
stances, it was thought advisable to postpone proceed-
logs with the bill till next session. It was therefore
proposed to report the bill, with a view of affording the
public the fullest information on the matter before a
bill was passed on the subject.
EASTERN BENGAL RAILWAY COMPANY

Lord STANLEY moved the suspension of the stand-
ing order No. 179, to enable their lordships to read this

The motion was agreed to, and the bill was read as
proposed.

The Court of Sessions (Scotland) bill was read a

thunderbolt on the Government of India. (Hear.) If they
had taken the warnings of this wise and farseeing man
they would have foreseen the inisChief; and guarded against
it. (Hear.) But there was that in the minds of the home
Government—there was that in the minds of the Govern-

went of India—that led thorn to hate this great man.
(Hear.) They hated him because he was a great man--
(hear)—for he towered above them, and showed by the
comparison their inferiority to himself. (Hear.)
Mr. D. SEYMOITR could say with ceitaiuty that Sir G.
Clerk never put kis name to a document the truth of which
he did not believe and into which he had not himself in-
quired. Sir G. Clerk fully inquired into this subject, and
it was a mistake to suppose that either he or the Bombay
Government wished to depreciate the merits of Sir Charles
Napier. He concurred in what the hon. and learned gen-
leman had said as to the supereminent merits of Sir C.
Napier. The paragraph in the return to which objection
was taken had been accidentally inserted there, and he
di l not believe it was done with any intention of disparag-
ing the character of the eminent mar, to whom it alluded.
Mr. BUTT thought the house should give some expres-
sion of its opinion on the que• tion before them. A charge
had been made against Sir Charles Napier in a return
made to that house, and surely they were entitled to know
the reply made to it. Sir Charles Napier himself, on dis-
covering by accident the nature of the charge male against
him, replied to it iu words that had been published, and
thereforej there exists 1 a complete documentary answer
to the accusation. (Hear, hear.) It was said that this
answer was lost, but as the hon. gentleman opposite (Mr.
Willoughby) had reiterated the charge, some effort ought
to be made for the production of th answer to it. He
would suggest that the Lon-unable member for Merthyr
Tydvil (elr. Bruce), who said that he had seen a copy of it,
should send that copy to the President of, the Board of
Control iu a private letter, desiring him to ask the Court
of Directors whether it was a true copy, and that then
the whole correspondence should be laid on the table of
the house. (Hear, hear.) That would be an indirect
mode, certainly, of getting the document ; but the respect
due to the memory of so valuable a public servant as Sir
C. Napier, demanded that it should be produced even in
an indirect manner. (Hear, hear.)
The house then went into Committee of Supply on the
miscellaneous estimates.
