THE BOMBAY MAIL.

By the arrival of the Bombay mail we have
received our private correspondence and files of
papers from Bombay to the 27th February, and
from Calcutta to the 18th February.
We take the following summary from the Bom-
bay Gazette of the 27th February :

The famine, and the most energetic and philan-
thropic measures taken to alleviate its terrible
consequences, are the chief subject of conversation
in India.

The Calcutta Committee of the Famine Relief
Fund have addressed a letter to the Lord Mayor of
London, begging his kind cooperation in obtain-
ing assistance for the starving people of the
North-West. It is to be trusted that the applica-
tion will be readily met.

The money-market of Bombay has been ♦ery
tight for some time; and during the last few days
the Bank of Bombay has - refused to give any
accommodation to the public, not even advancing
on Mint certificates payable at 20 days' date, their
reserve of cash being only just sufficient to meet
the requirements of their charter and of sound
banking, namely, one:fourth reserve for notes
issued, and, as is considered safe, one-third for
deposits.

Emanuele."

The Municipal Council of Velletri having been
convoked for the purpose of drawing up a list of
candidates for the post of Gonfaloniere, or Mayor,
from which the Government is to select one, has
fixed its choice upon the following three names :
Victor Emmanuel, Count Cavour, and Napoleon
111.

Gen. Fergola arrived at Naples on the 18th.

The Official Journal of Sicily of the 14th gives
a detailed account of the late disturbances at Santa
Margherita. On the 4th, Montalbano, the chief of
one of the parties which distract that town, was
murdered at night in the streets. His funeral on
the following day was the occasion for a conflict
between his partisans and the adverse party. The
latter having barricaded themselves in the com-
munal palace, and fired at their aggressors, the
Montalbanists blew up a part of the edifice with
gunFowder. Eight men were killed, and as many
wounded on both sides. Troops were immediately

consent of the Sublime Porte. Art. 3. The proto-
col shall have force and value from the sth March,

ROYAL COMMISSION.

The Yeoman Usher of the Black Rod summoned the
members to the upper house to hear the Royal assent given
by commission to several bills, for which see Lords' report.
HER MAJESTY'S REPLY TO THE ADDRESS OF
CONDOLENCE ON THE DEATH OF THE
DUCHESS OF KENT.

Lord BURY, Treasurer of the Royal Household, appeared
at the bar of the house, and presented her Majesty's reply to
the address on the death of the Duchess of Kent, which was as
follows :—" I thank you for your loyal and dutiful address
and for your expression of condolence on the death of my
beloved mother, and for your interest in everything that
concerns me and ray family, which is most grateful to my
feelings."
London, England, 1861-03-23

TEA AND SUGAR DUTIES.

Mr. GREGSON rose to call the attention of the house
to the-Customs duties now levied upon tea and sugar, and
to suggest to her Majesty's Government to take the subject
into their earliest consideration. The hon. member, in doing
so, entered into a statement of the advantage which had
arisen from the reduction on the duty on tea from ls. 6d.
per pound to is. 3d., the reduced duty bringing a larger
sum to the exchequer, and he recommended that there
should be laid upon sugar one uniform duty. (Hear.)
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said he
was sorry that the hon. gentleman had not had a more fa-
vourable opportunity of bringing this subject—on which
he was one of the highest authorities—under the notice of
the house. The hon. gentleman had put an adminstrative
question as to the classification of the duty on sugar. That
was a subject of the greatest difficulty, which embraced
not only the classification or non-classification of the
lower description of sugar, but involved the question as to
whether the uniformity of duty was to be extended to re

fined sugar or not. The difference between refined and
unrefined sugar was a more question of degree, just as was
the difference between other classes of sugar ; but he
could not say that the immense difficulty here involved
was likely to be overcome within any reasonable time.

SCHLESWIG-HOLSTEIN.

The Earl of ELLENBOROUGH asked whether the
Government had received any further information than the
telegram that had appeared on Tuesday last, stating that
Holstein had refused the proposition of the King of Den-
mark ?

Lord WODEHOUSE said the last telegram was to the
effect the noble earl had stated ; but he believed a committee
had been appointed by the States to consider the propositions
and that it had been advised to reject them. He under-
stood that a discussion was still gcing oa in the States on
the subject, but he thought it probable that the report of
the committee would be adopted.

BRISTOL SUGAR-MARCH 22.

We have again had a very quiet market for raw sugars,
without any quotable change in values. Refined goods
retail demand at late currencies. No change in rum, an
little business doing.

POST OFFICE (MONEY ORDER OFFICES).

Sir H. WILLOUGHBY moved for a return of all losses
and defalcations, if any, that hare occurred in the money-
order offices of the General Post-office in the United King-
dom, since Jan. 1, 1841.—Ordered.

NEW WRIT FOR THE BOROUGH OF TIVER.

TON.-LORD PALMERSTON.

Mr. BRAND moved that the Speaker do issue his warrant
for the election of a member for the borough of Tiverton,
vacant by the aaeeptance of the Constableship of Dover
Castle and the Wardenship of the Cinque Ports by the
Right Hon. Lord Palmerston. (Laughter.)

The writ was ordered.
THE BUDGET,

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that
as there might be some misunderstanding in consequence
of the statement he made the other evening, to the effect
that he would make his financial statement about the 11th
of next month, he wished to say that it was definitively
fixed that he would make that statement on the 16th of
next month.

BANKRUPTCY AND INSOLVENCY (STAMP
DUTY).

The report of the committee on the resolution relative
to the stamp duty was brought up.
Mr. CRAWFORD said that several representations had
been made to him during the day on the subject of this duty,
and he thought if the amount were reduced from 7s. to ss.
upon every £lOO it would give great satisfaction. He thought
it would be very desirable if the hon. and learned gentle-
man, the Attorney. General, would give an assurance that
if the amount realised by this duty exceeded his expectation,
the amount would be lowered.

The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said that the bill pro-
vided for a financial statement being laid before the house
every year, and if it should be found that the stamp duty
should prove more productive than he expected, it would
afford him great pleasure to propose a reduction. He
would move in committee the substitution of ss. for 7s. as
the latter amount was introduced by mistake.
The report was then agreed to.
BANKRUPTCY AND INSOLVENCY BILL.

The house then went into committee on this bill, and the
following amended resolution, in conformity with the state-
ment of the Attorney-General, was agreed to. Clause 201,
page 52, line 20, leave out all after " computed," and insert
at the rate of 78,upon every hundred pounds or fraction of an

Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD.

" Dr. fickford is known to English readers by his frequent
practical contributions to German medical literature. This
is the first time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself
to the non-medical reader. We trust that this may not be the
last, if he shall detect any other squally flagrant evil which it
may be in his power to correct."—London Medical Gazette.

" The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers
from this distressing malady by translating this little book,
and by laying bare the scandalous practices of unqualified
adventurers, who profess to cure a disease of which they
know nothing, with no other object than to fill their own
purses. The difference between true Spermatorrhcea and the
various forms of disease which resemole it are accurately de-
scribed, and thus a safe guide is offered for the treatment of
the malady."—Medical Circular.

" We have dilated •so long upon the contents of the preli-
minary chapter, that we have scarcely left ourselves space for
any notice of the subject specially treated of by Dr. Pickford ;
but the moderate price at which the brochure' is sold, places
it within the reach of every one interested in the matter."—

HARBOURS BILL.

This bill begins with giving power to the Public
Works Loan Commissioners to make advances
for the construction or improvement of harbours
" or for carrying into effect any other shipping
purpose," to be repaid within 50 years with 31
per cent. interest, a higher rate to be charged on
all sums over £lOO,OOO. The bill then proceeds
to abolish passing tolls, debts now charged on
them to be paid by the State. Shipping dues
(except pilotage rates), levied by charitable autho-
rities named in a schedule are also to cease, except
so far as may be requisite for payment of now
existing pensions, and of compensation to be
granted under this bill, or for the execution of such
shipping purposes as have hitherto been executed
out of such dues as are for the benefit of the ship-
ping and goods on which they are levied.

London, England, 1861-03-23

Minister of the Navy Department, wholly' responsi-
ble for the management of the dockyards, which are
to be conducted as much as possible on the model of
an ordinary manufacturing establishment. He is to
appoint a Controller-General practically acquainted
with the business. This latter is to appoint the
Superintendents of the Dockyards, and they in their
turn the subordinate officials, in both cases subject to
the approval of the Minister. The other arrange-
ments proposed are of much the same character, all
tending to concentrate the responsibility on the
Minister himself and alone. It is proposed to place
the employes of the Dockyards under the same
restrictions as to voting at elections as the ser-
vants of the other public departments. In fur-
ther compliance with the demand for entire
responsibility no surplus arising on one vote
for the Navy Estimates is to be applied to make
good a deficiency upon another. With mere dis-
tinct Estimates and Returns it is hoped that Par-
liament may be better able to see where and
how the money goes, and " the reason why" things
are not better done, or not done at all, The pre-
sent system of accounts appears to be elaborately
devised to elude responsibility, and certainly
answers that purpose. The Commissioners illus-
trate this at a considerable length, and. prove their
point. They propose a system aiming at an un-
interrupted chain of subordination, a monthly check,
and complete responsibility to Parliament. One
principal feature is a complete estimate of the
cost of every ship proposed to be built, and any
other work to be done. The Commissioners do
ample justice to the skill and ability of the dock-
yard management, as regards the work done, the
ships built, or altered. They only believe that the
cost has been much more than it need have been.
At least, we have had no check upon it, and have
no means of knowing whether the bill is fair or
a mass of overcharges. The object of the new
system proposed is, that we may at least know
what we are about for the future.

A NEW BLACK SILK, "Noire Imperiale."
Such is the name given by the Lyons manufac'urers to
a new shade of Black Silk. By the side of other black glace
it will be found brighter, and, to it being made ot more
valuable raw silk it will wear much better than the old black,
and never change colour. The pi ice is very little higher than

SALMON FISHERIES.

Sir G. C. LEWIS, in reply to the question put to him
on this subject, said it was intended by the Government to
introduce a bill to carry out the recommendations of the
committee after Easter.

NAVAL AND MILITARY SERVICES IN CHINA.
Sir S. NORTHCOTE called attention to the mode in
which the vote of credit of £850,000 for naval and military
services in China for the year 1859-60 had been dealt with,
and the importance of regulating the system of dealing with
unemployed balances for the army and navy services.
Mr. F. PEEL said that the £850,000 voted last yeariwas
for the purpose of meeting extraordinary expenses in China
for 1859-60.

ing is the text of the convention relative to Syria
which has just been signed :—Art. 1. The convention
of the 3d September is prolonged for three months,
that is to say, from the sth March to the sth June,
which is a definitive term. Art. 2. It is understood
that Art, 3 of the convention is maiatained. The
occupation is to continue under the same conditions
as were stipulated by the convention. The condi-
tions alluded to are to the effect that no change can
•be made in the mode of occupation without the
consent of the Sublime Porte. Art. 3. The proto-
col shall have force and value from the sth March,

SYRIA.

Lord STRA.TFORD DE REDCLIFFE said he
wished to ask a question of the noble lord oppo-
site with respect to Syria. The conference at Paris
had lately had under sits consideration a subject
of very great importance, and had decided on the continu-
ance of the abccupation of Syria by French troops. This
decision was of the utmost importance. It was not in ac-
cordance with the wishes of :this country, and could hardly
be palatable to the Turkish Government. Ho should like
to know whether the Government would have any objec-
tion to lay the papers connected with the Conference before
Parliament.

Lord WODEHOUSE said it was quite correct that a
convention had been signed for the occupation of Syria
by the French troops until the sth of June. The papers
alluded to would be laid before Parliament the first day
on re-assembling after Easter.
SC HLE S WIG-HOLSTEIN.

The Earl of ELLENBOROUGH asked whether the
Government had received any further information than the
telegram that had appeared on Tuesday last, stating that
Holstein had refused the proposition of the King of Den-
mark

Lord WODEHOUSE said the last telegram was to the
effect the noble earl had stated ; but he believed a committee
had been appointed by the States to consider the propositions
and that it had been advised to reject them. He under-
stood that a discussion was still going on in the States on
the subject, but he thought it probable that the report of
the committee would be adopted.
PRIVATE BUSINESS.

The following bills were read a third time and passed :
--Macclesfield Gas, Metropolitan Railway (Improvements,
&c.), Dartmouth and Torbay Railway, and Portsea Gas.

SUITORS' FUND IN CHANCERY.

Lord ST. LEONARDS drew the attention of the house
to some correspondenie connected with the funds of the
suitors of the Court Or Chancery.
The Duke of ARGYLL was glad the noble lord had
called the attention of the Government to the subject, and
assured him that every consideration should be given to it.

Relief for all Sufferings.—The grand secret of attaining

using Holloway's purifying medicaments according to his

GENERAL MIRAMON.

Lord W. GRAHAM asked the Secretary of State for
Foreign Affairs whether he had received any information
respecting the proceedings of the French Minister in
Mexico, and Captain Le Roy, commanding the French
brig-of-war, Le Mercure, in assisting the escape of General
Miramon, whom the noble lord stigmatised as a burglar
and a robber from Mexico; and, if so, whether he has
applied to the French Government for any explanation of
such proceeding?

INDIAN FINANCE.

The Earl of ELLENBOROUGH asked if the Govern-
ment would lay en the table a copy of the last financial
despatch which had been received from India ?
Earl DE GREY and RIPON said it would not be con-
venient to produce the report at the present moment. It
formed one of a series of despatches, which it was intended
very shortly to lay before Paliament, and it would not be
advisable that the documents referred to by the noble earl
opposite should be now produced separately. In reply to
further observations from the Earl of Ellenborough, the
noble lord said that the series of despatches mentioned would
contain ample information connected with Indian railways,
and he thought the documents would be ready in about
three weeks.

Lord MONTEAGLE thought it was important that the
documents should speedily be produced, and it would also
be convenient if such returns were annually laid before
Parliament, although that system was not now the
practice.

BETTING AT MANCHESTER-FRIDAY.

Beyond the support given to Spanish Fly for the Earl
Spencer's Plate, this might be almost described a blank
day, as the betting was of such a desultory character that
it is almost impossible to give anything like a correct quo-
tation. 100 to 8 was offered en the field for the Northamp-
tonshire Stakes, and 100 to 6 was taken about Rattlebone
10 to 1 was offered on the field for the City and Suburban,
20 to 1 offered against Thunderbolt, 100 to 7 was taken
against First Lord, and 15 to 1 about Industrious. For the
Derby, 9to 2 was offered on the field, and both Rouge
Dragon and Klarikoff were talked about, and there were
offers to take 1,000 to 15 about Robin Hood. 7to 1 was
taken against Klarikoff for the Two Thousand Guineas,and
Matador was supported at 100 to 9. Closing prices ;

Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD.

" Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent
practical contributions to German medical literature. This
is the first time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself
to the non-medical reader. We trust that this may not be the
last, if he shall detect any other squally flagrant evil which it
may be in his power to correct."—London 'Medical Gazette.

" We have dilated so long upon the contents of the preli-
minary chapter, that we have scarcely left ourselves space for
