of soldiers have also murdered 119 of their own native
officers. General Lumley, with his troops, were pre-
pared to cross the Sutledge at Feaozopore as soon as it
might be necessary ; but it appeared that no decisive course
had been taken. British interference had not yet been en-
tered on within the Punjaub, meanwhile it had become a
prey to the ravages:of ,lawless troops amounting to 80,000
men.

The Hill tribes in the Cutchee were ;threatening to
avenge their recent defeats.
Nusseer Khan had been induced by Colonel Stacey, to

enter into arrangements, and to proceed with him to Quetta,
to meet Mr. Bell, and ratify the treaty.
Dost Mahommed was at Meerut on the 28th of March,
and left it for Calcutta next day.

Calcutta and Cuttack had 'been suffering severely from
cholera ; the deaths were for some days up to the 9th of
April, 50 in the former city alone, not counting its populous
suburbs. The Rev. Mr. Backhouse, chaplain of Agra, had
been carried off by it. The 32d Regiment of Native In-
fantry was attacked by it on the Bth of March, between
Dacca and Dinapore, and 100 sepoys, about an equal number
of boatmen and followers carried off in 11 days.

The great discussion in Bombay respecting the contempt
of the Supreme Court, committed by two sets of merchants,
has ended by the judges allowing the rules to be discharged

against those proprietors. A great sensation was caused
thereby, and a subscription of £3OO collected to present a
piece of plate to the barrister who had pleaded on their be-
half. The whole of the bar has condemned his conduct, and
the public has allowed the matter to drop into oblivion.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE,--THIS DAT,

(From Messrs. R. MAKIN & SONS' Circular.)

Although the supplies coastwise and from Ireland since
Tuesday, exceed those received here during the whole of last
week, they are still rather limited ; and the imports from
abroad, exclusive of 4,000 barrels of Flour from the American
States, are comparatively moderate.
The intervening period, between our first and second mar-
kets this week, was not distinguished by any lively features
in the trade ; the transactions having been confined merely
to occasional sales of Wheat and Flour, the former barely
sustaining the terms last noted ; all other articles at the same
time remaining dull, with a slight tendency to decline in
value.

Upon foreign Wheat the duty is raised this morning to
245. Bd. per quarter ; on Pease to 14s. per quarter, and on
Flour to 14s. 10d. per barrel ; continuing upon other foreign,
and on British colonial produce generally, the same as last
week. Anticipating the advance, upwards of £23,000 were
paid here in duties yesterday upon Wheat and Flour, but
chiefly on the former, by which a further quantity of each
is available for consumption.

The Wheat trade in consequence was less buoyant to-day,
and having a very slender attendance of buyers, the opera-
tions were upon a moderate scale only, reducing our quota-
tions in particular instances, ld per 701bs below the rates of
Tuesday.

English and Irish Flour, being in limited supply, fully
maintained late prices ; and duty-paid Foreign may be noted
quite as dear as last week.
Barley, Malt, Beans, and Pease continuing to meet a slow
lingering sale, scarcely upheld our last currency.
Oats being nearly without inqniry, were farther depressed
in value, the best samples of Irish not exceeding 3s. per 4b
lbs.; Oatmeal also appeared very unsaleable at former
prices.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, 3 P.M

Since our last weekly report on Friday last, no change for
the better has occurred in the cotton market : indeed the
past week may be considered to have been more dull than any
of the preceding ones : but which is most probably to be
accounted for by the general practice of the Whitsun week
being kept as a holiday in the manufacturing districts, and
which, combined with the previous working of short time,
has been the cause of the limited business transacted in our
market this week.

In prices we make no material alteration, although owing
to the difficulty in effecting sales in a flat market, they are in
some instances rather in favour of the buyer.

The total sales of the week are 12,000 bales, of which ex-
porters have taken 250 bags Surats, and the remainder is to
the trade.

During the past month there have been forwarded into the
country unsold, 1,670 Americans, and 200 Pernams.
