SINDE.

Our Sinde news down to the 26th ult. informs us that
Colonel Moseley's court. martial was expected to com-
mence about the beginning of this month, and we are
told that Captain Flyter is placed in arrest, and is to be
tried also ; and it is also reported that Sir C. Napier in-
tends bringing both the commandants of her Majesty's
13th and 78th Regiments to trial on account of the escape
of nine of the condemned men from the custody of the
former corps, and one (the last tried) from that of the
latter.

Letters from Sinde still speak of the fearful sickness
raging there. The 7th Cavalry are stated to have but
15 men fit for duty, the troop of Horse Artillery but
eight or nine, and the 69th Regiment about 200 ; how-
ever, as the bad season is now over, it is to be hoped the
Europeans, as well as natives, will rapidly improve in
health.

(From the Bengal Hurharu.)
The officers who are to sit on the General Court-
martial for the trial of Colonel Moseley have been named
by Sir Charles Napier. They are—Major-General
Simpson, her Majesty's 29th Foot, second in command
in Sinde, President ; Lieutenant-Colonel Douglas, Bri-
gadier ommanding at Kurachee, her Majesty's 78th
Foot ; Lieutenant-Colonel Schuler, Bombay Artillery ;
Lieutenant-Colonel Aplin, her Majesty's 86th Foot ;
Lieut.-Colonel Reid, 12th Bombay Infantry ; Lieut.-Col.
Woodburn, 25th Bombay Infantry ; Major Creagh,
her Majesty's 86th Foot ; Major Twopeny, her
Majesty's 78th Foot • Major Corsellis, 13th Bombay
Infantry ; Major Phillips, 7th Bengal Light Cavalry ;
Major Macan, 17th Bombay Infantry; Major Vassal, her
Majesty's 78th Foot ; Major Wilton, 4th Bengal In-
fantry ; Major Kennett. 13th Bombay Infantry ; Major
Lowth, her Majesty's 86th Foot • Major Richards, Bth
Bombay Infantry ; and Major Sidley, her Majesty's 86th
Foot ; members-16 field-officers, with a general officer
as President ; 17 in all, Captain Lamert, of her Ma-
jesty's 78th Highlanders, is to officiate as Judge-Advo-
cate-General. A steamer was to be in readiness at
Kotree on the 28th, for the accommodation of all the
members from Kurachee and Hyderabad. From this
we infer that the court cannot very well assemble before
the 12th or 15th proximo. It is possible we may be
furnished with an outline, or perhaps, a copy of the
charges brought against Colonel Moseley for our next
issue. We hear that they bear chiefly on the alleged
concealments regarding the state of his corps. Not one

" MTNPOOREE, OCT. 28.—This insignificant district
has been put into a state of feverish excitement by an
atrocious murder perpetrated on Saturday night last,
about 20 miles from the Suddar station. Captain
Alcoek, of the 46th Regiment of Native Infantry (for-
merly of the Quartermaster-General's Department),
arrived here by dawk on the 26th inst., from Cawnpore,
en route to Agra, apd put up with the Colonel of the
gallant 42d, with whom he remained till about four P.M.,
when he started in prosecution of his journey, with
eleven bearers to his train. On reaching Ghurour about
eight or nine P.m., they were relieved by a fresh set, who
had hardly proceeded on about half-a-mile, when within
:tot) yards of a police chowkee they were stopped by
twelve ruffians (four of them mounted), and ordered to
put down the palkee. The bearers (like natives in
general) took to their heels, and left the poor captain to
defend himself as best he could. He immediately
stepped out, sword in hand, and questioned the gang as
to who they were, and what they required ; without,
however, answering him, they commenced an attack
upon the poor defenceless man. Whilst defending
himself against such fearful odds, all armed to the
teeth, he received a wound on the wrist of the
sword hand, which totally disabled him, and forced
him to seek safety by retreat. He had hardly got
away three hundred yards from the scene of action,
when one of the ruffians fired at and brought him to
the ground, when they came up, and inflicted several
deep wounds (I believe eleven), from the effects of which,
two in particular on the forehead and the back of the
neck (nearly severing the windpipe), he must have in-
stantly expired. His remains were brought in on a
charpae yesterday morning, about ten o'clock, and in-
terred with military honours this morning. This mur-
der is supposed to have been committed by that notorious
prisoner (still at large) who br_ke gaol at Muttra, after
murdering the guard in charge, some time back (Ghun-
siah), for whose apprehension a reward has been pro-
claimed by Government, and who pot many months
since murdered the Thanader of Kooraoolee, and wounded
the assistant magistrate, who had gone to apprehend
him upon information brought by an approver. You
may guess what a reckless and daring villain the fellow
must be when I tell you, that a night previous to the
murder of Captain Alcook he had been attacked by
the Thanadar and a small portion of the police in the
Shekoabad Pergunnah, where, after having had two
of his followers killed, and several wounded with him-
self, he made off in the darkness of the evening
amongst steep and dense ravines, in which a part
of the Shekoabad Pergunnah abounds. The police
did their duty, though circumstances beyond their
control led to the Dacoits having eluded capture. The
case was immediately reported to the magistrate, and
(energetic as he has always shown himself) he forthwith
made the neccessary arrangements and left the station
to encourage pursuit by his own immediate presence.
It appears, that the ruffian and his gang got timely in-
timation of the magistrate's movements, and they awaited
his arrival at the very spat where poor Captain Alcock
encountered them, but mistaking their victim they mur-
dered him, as the magistrate, who providentially, by ar-
riving half an hour later than the captain, averted the
awful fate which awaited him. Does all this not show a
most dreadful and lamentable state of things? Unless,
indeed, a more liberal reward than has already been
offered by Government is held out, I fear some further
serious depredations and less of valuable lives will be the
consequence of injudicious parsimony. Ihe magistrate
is still out in hot pursuit of the offender, and it is
earnestly hoped he may be successful in capturing the
villian. All at the station just now are on the qui vive,
and dawk travellers are already getting scared.

SUICIDE OF A NATIVE PRINCE.
(From the Bengal Hurkaru, Nov. 2.)
Raja Kishennath Roy, of Berhampore, shot himself
on last Thursday. The man whom -he was accused of
having caused to be cruelly tortured has died from the
injury he had received, and the young Raja, under ap-
prehension of the consequences to himself, was driven
to the dreadful act of self-murder. He was living at
his mother's house in Chitpore-road, where, on the day
in question, he invited Mr. Strettell and Mr. Herklots,
and asked them to witness the execution of a folded
document, which he himself signed, and told them it was
his last will and testament. Very shortly after these gen-
tlemen had left him he locked himself within a room,
and, loading one barrel of a double-barrelled percussion
gun, bent his head over the muzzle and drew the lock
with his foot. Instantly he fell dead to the ground.
The discovery of the fact was made by the report at-
tracting some of the inmates of the house to the room.
Not long after the occurrence, the deputy superinten-
dent of police proceeded to the house, and found the
body of the unfortunate young man on the floor in a
sitting posture, with the back le3niug against the wall,
and the fatal gun resting over one shoulder. The
osfrontis was completely blown away, and fragments of
the brain were observed on different parts of the wall
and ceiling, and a flattened ball lay near the foot of the
corpse. 'i he features were not much distorted, beyond
the nose, which appeared much distended. The will
left behind is said to be a very lengthy one, but regularly
drawn up. In it several handsome legacies are men-
tioned, while a very munificent portion of the estate bas
been willed away tewards the beneficent object of found-
ing a college, or, as the will expresses it, a " university,"
at Berhampore, with an hospital attached. The young
Raja has, likewise, bequeathed a handsome legacy to
one of his favourite domestic servants ; and likewise
the interest of a sufficient sum to be given for the sub-

RAW SILL—The native holders of this staple having
left Calcutta for the interior, in consequence of the
Doorgab Poojah holidays, which are followed by several
others (as before noticed), they have scarcely, even as
yet, returned and sett!ed to business. Fine descriptions
of Cossimbiaar and Jung:, pore are much inquired for,
but scarce, and one or two small parcels have changed
hands at about former rates. In Radnagore and Hurri-
peel sorts some transactions have taken place, but the
principal holders of those kinds are disposed to wait the
arrival of the next mail, which they seem to expect will
bring more favourable accounts of the home market;
but, whether this be the case or not, we think they will
then be obliged to realise. Exports to Great Britain
from the Ist inst. up to date amount to only 427 maunds.
SILK PIECE GOODS.—AII descriptions of fabrics under
this head have continued in extensive inquiry, and really
first-rate goods have brought a very high figure. Com-
mon native descriptions have also sold extensively, at a
slight advance. We may here remark, that, although our
market continues fairly supplied, the quality has already
decidedly deteriorated, and will, most probably, do so to
a greater extent, as is usually the case when the raw
material maintains its price.
Exports from the Ist ult. up to date have been—to
Great Britain, 16,339 pieces corahs, and 1,778 pieces
choppas and bandannas.
OPIUM.—The price of this drug has for some time past
continued gradually to decline, and our quotations are
now as low as 1,380 Company's rupees per chest for
Patna, and 1,285 for Benares. The Waterwitch, how-
ever, having just cleared out with no less than 988 chests,
leaving in the Company's godowns only 330 chests
against 1,220 at the same period last year, has caused
holders to show more firmness; and it is probable that
prices have now seen their lowest, at all events until the
next Government sale.

CorroN.—We have not beard of a single transaction
in this article throughout the month, nor is there at pre-
sent any vessel loading with it for China.
Brcx.—A decline of upwards of ss. having taken place
in freights, the demand noticed in our last has continued,
and as high as 2-3 Company's rupees per maund has been
paid for the best description of table rice. Broken has
also been much inquired for, and there nut being much
offering, shippers have been obliged to pay from 1-5 to
1-7 Company's rupees per maund. Moonghy and
Ballum have sold extensively for Bourbon, China, and
the Straits, but for the Mauritius there has not been a
great deal doing. Exports from the Ist inst. up to date
are as follows, viz.:—To Great Britain, 34,257 maunds;
to the Mauritius, 30,000.
SMEL Lac AND Lac DYE.—Both these articles have
been in consichaaWe demand during the past month for
Great Britain and America, and transactions would,
think, have been on a more extensive scale had suitable
qualities been procurable. Two or three sales of fine
shel lac, of European manufacture, have been effected at
14 and 14-o Company's rupees p,T maund ; also of some
low native manufacture, about 8 to 10. In lac dye
we have not heard of any transactions in European
marks, but considerable sales are reported of native, of
middling quality, at from 15 to 20 Exports from the
lst instant up to date have been as follows, viz.:---To
Great Britain, 590 maunds shel lac, 429 maunds lac
dye ; to North America, 190 maunds shel lac, 404
maunds lac dye.
COLOURED YARN.—AII descriptions hare been in fair
demand, and sales to some extent are reported at about
last month's rates.
COPPER.—We have no alteration to notice in this
metal. Prices of sheathing may be quoted about the
same as last month', sales, having been effected to a mo.
derate extent at 34 Company's rs., to 34r. 2a. Tile is
not so much inquired for, but 31r. 12a. has been offered.
Holders, however, are not dispe,ed to realise under 31r..
14a., at which a few sales have been effected Imports
in October were as follows, viz. :--Tile and ingot, 4,284
=tunas ; nails, 79 maunds ; sheet and plate, 3,719
maunds ; old, .58 maunds.
SPELTER.—Transactions have not been very exten-
sive, but prices do not show any variation from the quo-
tations given in our last, viz , 11r. Ba. to 11r. 12a. Ar-
rivals, however, have of late been very heavy, say, about
550 tons. Imports in October were 4,768 maunds.
IRON.—There has been rather more doing in common
bar, and the bazaar dealers having reduced their stocks
are now obliged to come forward to purchase, but as yet
we have not heard of any extensive contracts having
been entered into. Pig is dull of sale and heavy in stock,
as are also sheet and nail rod, and prices of the latter are
on the decline. Imports in October were as follows,
viz. :—Bar, bolt, and rod, 1,967 maunds; hoop, 297;
sheet, 5,345 ; kentledge, 3,000 ; Swedish, 1,284 ; nails,
165.
LEAD AND TIN PLATES. —Tin plates have advanced
in price, the last sale reported being 275 boxes at 15r. 4a.
Pig lead has sold to a moderate extent at 6r. sa. per
maund; patent sh )t at 3r. peF bag; red lead at 9r. lo
Or. 4a. per m•Jund. In other-,-)descriptions no sales re-
ported. Imports in October wote as follows, viz. :—Tin
plates, 708 boxes; pig lead, 2,21 k maunds; sheet lead,
550 maunds; shot lead, 1,528 age; white lead, 136
maunds; red lead, 1,225 maunds.

MINLRAL WEALTH OF ALGIERC—A traveller to
Algiers makes an important report of the mineralogical
wealth of the sea-coast lands in the province of Oran.
On the slope of one of the mountains which form the
southern barrier of this portion of the shore, he has
seen, he says, magnificent masses of alabaster, of a
whiteness and beauty excelling those of the Tuscan ala-
baster of Boltera. Not far distant are rich mines of
mineral salt. On the side of Orleanville and Tenez are
deposits of lenticular iron and sulphuretted eepper—
while long veins of carbonate of iron and of lead allow
themselves in the fissures of the rocks, and appear even
above the soil. Finally, the traveller in question for-
lowed, for a space of 6,000 metres, a vein of glance-iron.
(ler oligiste) of an extent and regularity almost unex-
singled a utatasysical ifoirmad.
