LATEST PARTICULARS.

As has been previously stated, Good was expected to ar-
rive at the Greenwich police station, Blackheath-hill, from
Maidstone, at about three o'clock yesterday afternoon, and a
great crowd of people were congregated, anxious to get a
glimpse of so notorious a character. About two o'clock a
horse express was sent over to Woolwich to order the police
van of the R. Division from thence to the Greenwich station,
for the purpose of conveying the culprit to Bow-street.
on his arrival. Upon the van reaching Greenwich tbs. ex-
citement became intense, as it was fully expected that Good
had been brought up by water, and had been brought by that
rout, via Chatham, Gravesend, &c. ; and the people were
accordingly disappointed in their expectation 3. The
next object of interest was the arrival of the " Favourite "
Maidstone coach, which generally reaches Greenwich
about ten minutes before seven o'clock, and it having
been rumoured that Good would arrive by that conveyance;
the Blaekheath-road, and more particularly opposite to the
..tation• house. was densely crowded by spectators. However,
ne coach arrived at near about its snual time, but did not stop.
still the coachman pointed significantly to the rear, and the in-
ference caught was, that he was not far behind. Shortly after

LONDON.
MONDAY MORNING, APRIL 18, 1842.

We refer our readers to the Map of India, published
in The Sun of this day, and the historical accounts of
the various nations inhabiting that vast region. The de-
tails respecting the habits, customs, government, and
military forces of the respective States, have been de-
rived from the best authorities, and will be found highly
interesting. The history of Affghanistan, where the
British troops have met with more deplorable disasters
than at any period in the memory of man, has been ar-
ranged with the greatest care; every document within
our reach has been consulted; the character, spirit, and
religion of the people have been investigated ;
and we confidently trust the public will see,
from studying the history of this singular nation, that,
in a short time, Britain will have no difficulty in retriev-
ing her character in that quarter, and taking ample
vengeance for the perfidious and cruel slaughter of many
thousands of helpless beings, who implicitly trusted to
the faith of treaties. This must be the first object of the
Indian Government. The next regards China. The
longer the settlement of the dispute with the Celestial
Empire is delayed, the greater will the difficulty become.
We have enemies enough in the Western part of the
world, independent of those in the East, who will be
anxious to take advantage of present circumstances
to instruct the Chinese in the art of war, and
encourage them to persevere in their resistance
to just demands ; and the only rational course, there-
fore, we can pursue, is to send such a number
of troops to China as shall settle the dispute at once, and
make the Bright Eye pay the expenses of the expedition.

We are indebted to the uniform kindncss of Mr.
Wm), Geographer to the QUEEN, for a great portion of
the information contained in the " INDIAN SUN:'
To those who aro desirous of a full and very correct
Map of Affghanistan, we would strongly recommend them
to send for Mr. WYLD'S Mir, which contains everything
that geniu3, labour, and the most liberal expense could
supply. The notes to Mr. WrLD's Map have been of
great service in•furnishiug many necessary particulars,
illustrative of Affghanistan, for the free use of which
we tender Mr. WYLD our best thanks.

The designs which surrounl the map have been en•
gravel by Mr. WALTER G. MAsoN, a young artist of
very great talent, who promises to be himself an orna7
ment to his profession.
