OCT. 24.—The Peninsula and Oriental Company's
steam-boat Delta, of 60-horse power, arrived-here on
the 20th inst., in four dayS, -under steam from MAlta

—in precisely the same number of hours as the
Oriental. It now remains to be seen whether the
Superintendent of the Peninsula and Oriental Com-
pany will obtain permission to place the Delta on the
Nile. There is little doubt that great exertions will
be made, and that certain parties will use their in-
fluence at Court to prevent it.

Mr. Bourne's mistion remains in state quo.
The Iberia steamer left yesterday morning for

Malta.

On the 17th inst. the decision in the case of a
leading British mercantile house in this place versus
the late Boghos Bey was given in favour of the
former. The object was to recover a certain sum
of money, and interest thereon, advanced to Boghos
Bey many years ago. It is doubted whether there
will be sufficient assets from Boghos Bey's estate to
pay the whole amount of the claims, which are
numerous, and which, with the accumulation of in-
terest, are rather considerable. It is to be hoped,
however, that his Highness Mehemet Ali, in honour
of his late very faithful servant, will undertake to pay
his debts, or, that Pietro Youssouff, his brother, who
has made an immense fortune at Trieste, chiefly
through his connexions with Boghos Bey, will come
forward and liquidate his debts.
The Marquis de la Valette, French Consul-General
in Egypt, has suddenly made up his mind to leave for
England by the Oriental.

The forthcoming crop of indigo is confidently esti-

DR. WOLFF.

Notwithstanding the lamentable account of this
intrepid man's continued imprisonment, which has
appeared in the London papers, I believe I may an-
nounce to you with the fullest degree of assurance
and correctness, that the Rev. Gentleman has left his
dungeon, and arrived at Moosh, a place half way be-
tween Bokhara and Adrianople. I have strong reasons
for supposing that he has even reached that latter place,
but cannot affirm that. The latest letters from Tre-
bisond give the intelligence that he was expected there
about the 24th of November, and they are written by
" persons in authority" who are little likely to mis-
lead the public.—Times.
