A Bombay Paper, of the 19th December, states,
that the cholera morbus has made great ravages at
Sherez. One of the wives, two of the children, and
the.mother of the Prince perished in the attack, and
the deaths during nine days averaged above 210 per
day. Accounts from Asseirghur, dated the 10th Dec.
mention the Jungle fever prevailing there, and being
nearly as destructive as the cholera. More than SOO
persons were in the hospital, and two officers, Major
MAsitmas and Dr. BUTLER, have fallen a sacrifice
to the pestilential clime, in endeavouring to pass
through the Jungle.
Extract from the Madras Government Gazette, dated
the 18th of December, 1821:—" It is our painful duty
to record the death of another of his Majesty's Judges
in India: the Hon. Sir W. D. EAVANS, Recorder of
Bombay, died on die sth instant, after a very short'
illness. Thus thefiench at the sister Presidency has
again lost its .only Judge."
Papers from Calcutta to the 16th of December re-
ceived on Saturday, contain advices from the settle-
ment of Sincapore to the 4th of November, which
are interesting as denoting the state of the trade in
that quarter. Mr. MORGAN, a merchant of Sinca-
pore, had recentlir returned from a voyage to Siam,
and brought very favourable accounts of- the dispo-
sition of the King of SIAM towards the settlement.
It was feared, however, that the commercial inter-
course with that country would not, for that season,
be on a large scale, in consequence both of the fai-
lure to a certain degree of the crops, and from the
' ravages of the cholera morbus among the lower orders.
The trade with the island of Borneo had experienced
a very great increase, scarcely any of the vessels from
thence having passed over to Malacca, or to Penang,
but giving the preference universally to Sincapore.
The trade with the island of Celebes was also flou-
rishing and extensive, not less than from 80 to 100
of the vessels of that island being in the habour of
Sincapore at the date of the setters, besides many
that had gone up the Straits. The vessels from Ce-
lebes generally brought the cargoes of the greatest
value, and those islanders had acquired a large share
of the carrying trade of that quarter. The trade
with Java was limited from the same causes as that
with Siam. The pnpulatiun of Sincapore was gra-
' dually isecreasing, in consequence of its conutocial
prosperity.
