GENERAL OUTRAN.

We have the very highest authority for assuring
the public, that General Outram is not in the
slightest degree responsible for the detention of
her Majesty's 00th Foot and sth Fusiliers at Dina-
pore. From information in our possession, we feel
justified in saying that never was a greater injustice
done to a gallant officer than has been done to
General Outram in this case. The General was
never made aware that the two corps had been
detained on their upward voyage, until he arrived
near Patna. So anxious was he then to hasten
their advance that he sent his private secretary, and
his aides de-camp (Messrs. Money and Sitwell) on
foot, at 10 o'clock at night, from where the steamer
had brought up, to the city of Patna—a distance
of seven or eight miles—to despatch an express to
prevent the detention of the reinforcements for a
single moment. These gentlemen reached Patna
in as short a time as possible, but unfortunately the
express was net in time to prevent her Majesty's
90th from being recalled to Dinapore, to General
Outram's great vexation. As cholera bad broken
out in the flat Nemesis, the delay of a day was
demanded at Dinaporo by the superintending sur-
geon to purify the vessel, and put up some addi-
tional comforts. In the meantime, we are assured
that General Outram has never ceased to urge the
advance of the reinforcements intended for Oawn-
pore, and that his first consideration on arriving at
Allaha,batl, where he arrived before the 90th, was
to make arrangements for their marching the mo-
ment they arrived. So that the public can see that
General Outram is not the party answerable for
the detention of the troops intended to reinforce
General Havelock.—Phcenix, Sept. 8.

LATE NEWS.

CHANGE OF MINISTRY IN TURKEY.

We have received the following telegram from
cur Vienna correspondent :
" VIENNA, FRIDAY, Oct. 23, Noon.
" Advices from Constantinople of the 23d inst.
announce a change of Ministry.
" Reclschid Pasha is appointed Grand Vizier.
" Aali Pasha remains Minister of Foreign

Affairs.
" The Sultan's brother-in-law is appointed
Master of the Ordnance."

CHINA►.

The Hong Kong China Mail, of August 13, a
date three days later than that of the advices by
the last overland China mail, states that Commis-
sioner Yeh had been " summoned to the capital to
receive some high marks of his sovereign's favour."
A private letter from Amoy states that Peh-
kwei, the governor of Canton, is stayipg at the de-
partmental city of Charigchau, in Fuhkien, at
which he arrived after a four months' journey from
Pesing. He is said to be very sick and palsied,
but is represented to be busy cs:ll,,,,cting all the in-
formation he cau as to the " barbarian" move-
ments, previous to proceeding to Canton to relieve

On the 10th of August a lorcha was attacked off
Mir's Bay by three piratical boats, but after a short
resistance the crew of the lorcha succeeded in beat-
Inv, the boats, one of which was sunk during the
fight.
From Macao we hear of a fleet of fifteen lorchas
having left that place for the west coast, ostensibly
for the purpose of " purchasing" live stock. These
lorcha men, when they find themselves in f irce, are
apt to purchase at their own prices, and we learn
that it was not thought improbable Ft Hong Kong
that a gun-boat or two might be sent to control the
proceedings of this fleet. Great complaints were
made of the continued high prices of .provisions at
Hong Kong, "caused," says the Mail, "in a gi eal
measure by combinations on the part of the Chinese
dealers, who, though they have arbitrarily advanced
the value of copper cash beyond what its actual
scarcity and the coasequent rise in the rate of ex-
change would warrant, have not proportionately
reduced the price of their wares ; so that what cot
100 cash a month ago at 1,250 to the dollar, now
costa exactly the same number of cash at 1,000 to
the dollar. In fact, undor the present inefficient
regulations, we are at the mercy of the dealer.:, and
they know it ; though affairs m. ,y alter when the
new market arrangements, now understood to be
in contemplation, come to be enforced."
The British ships the Earl of Egliuton and Violet
from London arrived at Hong Kong on the 11th
of August, freighted with military storm The
British barque Elizabeth Martin li-ft Macao on the
11th of Atuust for Liverpool, and Vie ship
Julia left Shanghae on the 29th ef July for LAidon,
each with a cargo of teas.
An American ship, supposed to be the Nab- b,
which left Hong Kong for Shanghae on the 29th
July, is reported to have struck on the Pratas ;
and H.M.S. Tribune had orders to call there on her
I voyage to Manilla.

BRISTOL SUGAR—OcT. 23.

About 300 hhds. West India have found buyers this
week o❑ former terms, and a much larger quantity could
have been disposed of, particularly of refining descriptions,
had there been a better supply, as the demand for these
sorts continues good. Privately about 3,000 boxes Havan-
nabs have been disposed of on easier terms, and a small
floating cargo of Bahias is also reported, the particulars of
which have not been made public. Refiners' produce ge-
nerally, excepting bastards and low pieces, is still in ex-
cellent demand, and ltrze sales, chiefly for forward de-
livery, have again been made at steady prices. The only
sale reported in rum this week is a small,pareel of Deme-
rara, at Ni 7d per proof gallon, ex ship.

A. 'Ater from Warsaw of the 18th, in the Bourse

Prince Danilo occupied the district of the Bas )vichs
after the departure of the Pacha of Scutari's troops
in order to incorporate it withhis principality has ex-
citsd great indignation at Constantinople. Prince
Kallimaki, the Turkish Ambassador at Vienna, has
already had several conferences on this subject
with Baron Werner, and has hinted that severe
measures would be taken against Montenegro,
if the rights and authority of the Porte were thus
set at nought. Prince Kallimaki has reminded
him that in the congress of Paris Aali Pacha had
mentioned Montenegro as an integral part of the
Turkish empire, and that none of the powers had
objected to it. •We learn that in consequence of
these communications Austria will endeavour to
set on foot a diplomatic intervention, in order to

TO THE EDITOR Of THE SUN.

SIR,—In consequence of the extraordinary mys-
tery about the carpet bag that has lately been found
on one of the buttresses of Waterloo-bridge, it
strikes me (as a magistrate of this place) that the
Government should now adopt some measures to
prevent suicides and other crimes taking place—
particularly such as the one mentioned. Bodies
are no doubt often thrown into the river for con-
cealment. Now I suggest that through your valu-
able newspaper, if you deem it worthy of insertion,
some remarks should be made for the consideration
of the Government. Two policemen at least ought
to patrol all the bridges at night. and watoh-boxes
should be erected for their comfort, to go into in
bad weather, as the situation is so exposed. By
adopting this, much crime would no doubt be pre-
vented, as people would then be afraid, knowing
the police were at hand. I do not wish my name to
appear in suggesting the above.—l am, sir, yours,
&c.,

GENERAL OUTRAM.

We have the very highest authority for assuring
the public, that General Outram is not in the
slightest dgree responsible for the detention of
her Majesty's 90th Foot and sth Fusiliers at Dina-
pore. From information in our possession, we feel
justified iu saying that never was a greater injustice
done to a gallant officer than has been done to
General Outram in this case. The General was
never made aware that the two corps had been
detained on their upward voyage, until he arrived
near Patna. So anxious was he then to hasten
their advance that he sent his private secretary, and
his aides-de-camp (Messrs. Money and Sitwell) on
AAA. at 10 o'clock at nioht. from where the steamer
had brought up, to the city of Patna—a distance
of seven or eight miles—to despatch an express to
' prevent the detention of the reinforcements for a
single moment. These gentlemen reached Patna
in as short a time as possible, but unfortunately the
express was not in time to prevent her Majesty's
90th from being recalled to Dinapore, to General
Outram's great vexation. As cholera had broken
out in the flat Nemesis, the delay of a day was
demanded at Dinapore by the superintending sur-
geon to purify the vessel, and' put up some addi-
tional comforts. In the meantime, we are assured
that General Outram Las never ceased to urge the
advance of the reinforcements intended fir Cawn-
pore, and that his first consideration on arriving at
Allahabad, where he arrived before the 90th, was
to make arrangements for their marching the mo-
ment they arrived. So that the public can see that
General Outram is not tko party answerable for
the detention of the troops intended to reinforce
General Havelock.--Phoenix, Sept. 8.

MARKET NEWS.—(This Day.)

CORN EXCHANGE.
A very moderate supply of English wheat was on sale
here, to-day, coastwise and by land carriage, and most of
the samples—owing to the continuance of (lamp weather--
were scarcely fit for millers' purposes. The trade was in
a depressed state, and prices were nominally the turn
lower than on Monday.
In foreign wheat--the show of which was extensive—
scarcely any business was transacted, and most kinds were
lower to purchase.
Floating cargoes of grain ruled heavy.
Fine malting barley supported previous rates, but grind-
ing and distilling sorts were heavy, and rather Cirooping.
Malt moved off slowly, at barely stationary prices.
The oat trade was in a sluggish state, and damp parcels
of foreign were rather cheaper.
Beans, peas, and flour moved off slowly, at Monday's
prices.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET.
The supply of baaits here to-day was only moderate, yet
the beef trade ruled heavy, at Monday's decline in the
quotations. We had a very slow sale for sheep. In prices,
however, no change took place—the top figure for Dawns
being 5s 4d per 81b. The show of calves was very limited,
and the veal trade ruled active, at an advance in the quo-
tations of 4d per 81b. The primest veal sold at 5s per 81b.
Pigs and milch cows were dull, at late rates.

alteration in prices, but easier rates were in some few in-
stances current. Common congou realised 134 d. to 13d.
per lb.
SUGAR.--The market has been extremely inactive, and a
decline of about 6d. to I. per cwt. took place on most de-
scriptions. In the refined market, owing to the shortness
of the supplies, prices ruled rather firm.

Ceylon has been very limited, and a decline of fully 2s. per

other descriptions have been inactive.

quantity offered was disposed of at a decline of fully 3d
per cwt on late rates.

decline of about 3d par lb has taken place on most qua-
lities.

AUSTRIA.

kletter from Vienna of the 17th, in the Bcrroen
halle of Hamburg, says :—" Several conferences
have taken place during the last few days at the
house of Baron de Werner, Under-Secretary of State,
atwhich Sir H. Seymour aad Prince Kallimaki were
present. The object of them, we are informed on
good authority, was to deliberate on some very
important communication received from England.
It may be seen that the affairs in India are im-
proving from the fact of England renouncing the
p litical tergiversations of which she has lately
given proof in the qu stiff). of the Principalities.
Her potcy has resumed a firmer character. There
is no longer any reason lo fear that the English
cabinet will abandonthe Porte, or that Austria will
remain single-handed to defend the rights of the
Sultan."
