The Earl of ABERDEEN said the motion was brought for-
ward not in connection with the Government, but it should
evertheless meet with its hearty support.
The Marquis of LANSDOWNE said, as the Government was
prepared to support the motion, his noble and learned friend
might have spared hiinself the greater portion of the eloquence
which he had been at the pains to indulge in, although his
motion was almost of an unprecedented character. With
such support of course his object would be attained ; even
tho' some noble peers might, like himself (Lord Lansdowne,)
be unable to accede to the motion. Why had not the noble
and learned lord brought forward a motion for thanks to
Lord Palmerston when he concluded the Belgian treaty,
which had been so much vituperated while pending, but
which had been so successful and important in its results.
No man was better fitted to fill any civil office than Lord
Ashburton, and from his knowledge of the noble lord he had
read the treaty with the view of finding nothing but matter
of praise. When first he read it, his feeling was one of
unequivocal joy, and it was on consideration of its details
and on the subsequent perusal of the correspondence, that he
first saw occasion to alter in some measure his first impres-
sions. In the case of the Creole nothing had been gained,
because the American Government could never call upon us
to give up slaves under circumstances in which one of the
American non-slave states would not give them up to a slave
state. The noble marquis then impugned the pulicy, on the
part of Lord Ashburton, in at once stating the only points
upon which he would not give way, for be thereby conceded
every other, and it turned out that he afterwards did give
way on some of the points upon which he said be could not.
With respect to the right of search, be could not adnait, after
the message of President Tyler, that it was placed upon a
satisfactory footing. The noble lord concluded by moving,
as an amendment. that the house should adjourn.
The Earl of ABERDEEN said he had no doubt the thanks
of the house would be as highly appreciated by Lord Ash-
burton as if it had been proposed by the government, which
quite ready to take upon itself all the reponsibility of
tvgh-e-acts of that noble lord. The noble sear' at considerable
length defended the treaty, and repeated that the govern-
ment lent its ready and willing support to the motion.
Lord CAMPBELL could not assent to the vote of thanks, in
moving which his noble friend (Lord Brougham) had gone

On the following day Major General Sir Charles Napier,
K.C.8., marched to Muthare, and on his arrival there, as-
certained that the Ameers were in position at Meeanee,
distant about ten miles, to the number of twenty-two thousand
men. Being aware that any delay for reinforcements would
both strengthen the confidence of the enemy, and to add to
their numbers, although his own force was not one seventh
part of the enemy, Sir Charles Napier resolved upon making
an immediate attack, and accordingly marched towards
Meeanee at four o'clock in the morning (the 17th). At eight
o'clock a.m., the advanced guard of Major Gen. Sir Charles
Napier's force discovered the enemy's camp, and at nine
o'clock the British troops formed in order of battle, being
composed of about two thousand and eight hundred men, of
all arms, and twelve pieces of artillery. The enemy opened
a most determined and destructive fire upon the British troops,
and during the action which ensued, with the most undaunted
bravery repeatedly rushed upon them sword in band. After
a most resolute and desperate contest, which lasted for up-
wards of three hours, the enemy was completely defeated and
put to flight with the estimated loss of about 5,000 men, 1,000
•of whom were left dead on the field, together with the whole
of their artillery, ammunition, and standards, a considerable
quantity of stores, and some treasure.

The capture of this most important position is of immense
value; the valuable and fertile districts along the Indus can
now be restored to industry and the arts of peace, and mil-
lions, as of old, will soon live in happiness in those plains
where those despots during a century have scattered misery
and desolation. The official accounts are subjoined. It ap-
pears that the plan of an attack in order to exterminate all
the British in Scinde was not confined to Hyderabad, it ex-
tended itself throughout the territories of the Ameers, but
their utmost efforts have been baffled, and they are now pri-
soners.

The intelligence from Affghanistan is, that anarchy conti-
nues to prevail there. Akhbar Khan is said to be master of
Cabul, and his father Dost Mahomed is proceeding from
Lahore towards Pesbawur, as if to join him. Akhbar Kban
has threatened to invade the province of Peshawur, and to
take it from the Sikht, but the good treatment of old Dost
Mahomed by the latter may prevent that invasion. From
Candahar news has been received that Sutter Jung had been
compelled to quit that city, and to seek safety in flight.
Lord Ellenborough, who had arrived at Delhi on the sth
of February, was preparing to go to Agra, where his presence
was considered necessary, not only on account of the death of
Scindia, the powerful chief of Gwalior, at the age of twenty-
seven years, to whom an adopted heir has been named, but
also in order to contribute by various arrangements to put
an end to the disturbances in the Bundelkund districts.
Among the reports was one that the Brahmins at Soinnauth
had declined to receive the much talked of gates, which
they regarded as polluted by their application to a Moham-
medan's tomb, and that these celebrated trophies were to be
sent to another destination.

The Earl of CARNARVON acquiesced, with great satisfac.ion, in the vote of thanks to his noble friend, Lord Ash-

burton.
Lord BROyGIIAM replied, after which the amendment was
negatived withouta division, and the original motion was
agreed to, and their lordships adjourned.

The Court Martial on the officers engaged in the proceed-
ings at Cabul have terminated in the acquital of all; but
though the verdict of " Not Guilty" has been pronounced
for each, there is a most marked distinction made on the
remarks of the Governor-General, and of the Commander-in-
Chief, as to the opinion formed of the acts of Major Pottin-
ger and the other leading officers.

The latest intelligence from Canton comes down to the
21st January, from which it appears that the Imperial com-
missioner Eleppo had arrived there on the 10th, but it was
doubted if the negotiations respecting the tariff would com-
mence until after the beginning of the Chinese new year,
which was on the 30th of January. Sir Henry Pottinger
had left Hong Kong for Canton on the 17th, in order to pay
a visit of ceremony, Colonel Malcolm left Bombay on the
18th of February, on board the steamer, in order to deliver the
ratified treaty to the Plenipotentiary.

The last Gazette announces the appointment of Captain
Pottinger, Governor of Hong Kong.

The new packet-ship Montezuma, Captain Lowber, which
sailed from New York on the evening of the 20th ult., ar-
rived at this port on Friday, after a quick passage of 17 days.
She has brought papers four days later than those received
by the Great Western, but their contents are unimportant.
The spring business had commenced at New York. The
money and the stock markets were without change. The
exchange on Ern land was quoted as before.
There had been a severe storm at New York, which caused
some damage to the shipping.
