ancy observable a week or two back.

There is a report current among the Officers of
the Indian Army, that a large augmentation of regi-
mmts will be made, and that several of the regiments
now borne on the Madras establishment will be trans-
ferred to that of Bombay. A letter from Bombay states
that the army of that Presidency will have an increase of
four Native corps to meet the demands of Sinde. It is said
that Government has thus taken measures to mark its
sen.e of the unflinching obedience of the Bombay
Sipahees.—Naval and Military Gazette.

FIRE IN THE HACKNEY-ROAD.—Sunday night, be-
tween eight and nine o'clock, a fire broke out in the pre-

the premises and contents were completely consumed.
The total damage is somewhat considerable, but the
owner is insured in the Kent and Sun Fire-offices.

There are no late arrivals to-day with news of general
interest, the accounts from America being but one day
later.

A cargo of oranges, comprising 950 boxes, and occu-
pying several waggons, was received this morning at
the warehouses of Keeling and Hunt, in Monument-
yard, in excellent condition, by the Southampton
Railway, and as ships discharging at that port will
save several days in the home and outward voyages, it is
supposed that now the dock and railway companies offer
such facilities, both having been most liberal in their
charges and the accommodation offered, the route will
be made more extensively available.
A new decree relative to Dutch Stock has been issued
at Amsterdam, the heads of which, as given by Messrs.
Raphael and, Sons, are, that on the 29th inst. subscrip
tions will be received at Amsterdam from parties willing
to convert Dutch Five per Cents. into Four per Cents, of
the same amount of capital, receiving in addition for
every 100 florins subscribed, 2 florins 75 cents ; the
4 per cent. interest to commence from Oct. 1.

with a moderate business doing. Tho improvement on
the Paris Bourse is in their favour. Consols have been
1004 4 for Money, and 1004 4 for Account. Bank Stock
is firm at 205. The New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents.
have been 1024 to *. The Commissioners have bought

news of the decided majority for the Ministers at Lisbon

Mexican Stock has been at a further advance to 351
and 36, owing to the account received of a good amount
in dollars being ready at Vera Cruz for shipment
to this country. Brazil Stock is worth 874 to 88. Bel-
gian have advanced to 1024, and Dutch Two and-a-
