of the 29rh of June, mention that intelligence had

Syria.
The intelligence from Syria represent that country
as being in very disturbed state. The DrHses were
rowing in quest OF punder and intent upon pillagng
all travellers who came within their reach.
Egypt.
On the Both June. the French war-steamer, Conner,
arrived at Alexandra, with the Duke de Montpen-
ser on board. The ostensible object of the Prince
is 10 visit Mehemet Ali and Upper Egypt, but his
Highness has chosen the very worst season of the
year for ascending the Nile, as, besides the exces-
sve heat, the river at present has throughout Its
course the very unpicturesque appearance of dirty
ditch between embankments fifteen feet high
During his stay at Alexandra, the Prince resided
the palace of Said Pasha, called the Gabareh, and
the object OF the most assdous attention Oh
the part OF Mehemet Ali, who had just received in
telllgence OF the very gracious reception recently
given TO his sons at Paris by Louis Philippe, and
therefore he appears to have been douby anxious to
return the compliment, by gratifying In every way
the wishes OF the Duke de Montpensier
India.
The Overland Mail has arrived, bringing dates
from Calcutta, June Sd; Bombay, June 3d. Madras,
June 10th; Gale, June 14th; Alden, June 30th; and
Alexandria, July 10Th
The necessity CT dlspatchlng the mail from Bonn
bay ten days earlier than usual, account of
the adverse monsoon, causes the division OF the
months news into two unequal portions, one en-
bracing upwards of three weeks Off and the other
only one.
The most important local event Is the passing oil
the new tariff act.
On the following articles only is the increase more
than Is and per cent when imported in British
and foreign bottoms respectively British marine
stores increase OF duty, and per cent; foreign
marine store, and 8; British metals, 2 and 1 Fo.
reign metals and 8; British woolens and TO-
reign woollens and l2 Wines and liqueurs, from
10 and 20per cent. to and rupees per imp gallon.
This on the wines most extensively consumed
higher classes OF wines II does not much affect.
On spirit the duty raised from annas per imperl-
al gallon when imported in British vessel, to rI-
pee, annas; and from l rupee when in a foreign
vessel, to rupees.
The press of India, which has lately suffered so
much from casualties and changes, has lately by
death lost two OF It's members, of them at least
very conspicuous one-Captain McNaghten, the
proprietor and editor of the Calcutta Englishman,
and DR.. kindly, editor of the Ceylon Herald
In Nepaul, the government has reverted to the old
ruler. The famous chief by whose aid the young
Maherajah ousted his father shot in the old
mans presence, and probably by his order, and the
young man has sunk into his original lnsignfcance.
Matters have been very quietly settled there.
During the approaching rainy season an attempt is
to be made by the government steamers to extend
the navigation OF the Ganges beyond Alhhabad, Its
present limit, to Campore, and if possible to Fatte
gush, the latter being at distance of about 20(
| miles beyond the present stopping place.
The news from China is to the Sth April. The
most remarkable item thereof is an account o.
an assault by mob OF Chinese on MIR. Montgome
ry Martin, Mr.. Jackson, (the Vlce-Consul) ano
Rev. R. Hunter. These gentlemen were, it seems
walking round the walls OF Canton. when they wer,
unprovokedly set upon by the people from whom the,
luckily escaped with no other injury than the NORTH
cation OF being buiirted and robbed by crowd o
| low blackguards. The Governor Of Hong-kon
had sent to Keying to demand redress and guarar
tee for future good conduct, but the result Is yet ur
| known. The CONNIE rclal ne ws is of little interes
trade being, as far as British goods are concerned
| very dull
From Annoy we learn that the troops were with
drawn from kooungsoo on the I'D of March, an
| the island delivered over to the Chinese. The At
mlra appeared delighted at this observance of falt
on our part, OF which he had probably entertaine
suspicion. The Chinese flag was hosted by tn
troop ship and sauted with three guns according L
| Chiaese custom. The Admiral on his part holste
the British ensign, and saluted 1t with the same mum

We have TO announce the death of the Bishop G

New Zealand.
A budget of official correspondence from Ne,
Zealand has been issued by the Colonial office tn
dates extending to the 18th March. They do nj
throw much additional light on the subject to whic
| they relate the outbreak OF the natives but ther
| are several important points Governor FtZroy el
plains why he did not concentrate his troopson k'

loqetlc strain, lmputes the defeat of the British

MISS CUsHMAs.-O the 22d ut. was the concut
ing night of Miss Cushman's engagement for I'll
present season. The Stranger was the play che
sen for the occasion. London paper says !" Th
part of Mrs. Haler IS no favorite with us-neverth,
less as the actresses most successful assumption,
was, perhaps, wisely chosen. In other character
Miss Cushman had shown great physical energy an
force OF passion. In this she exhibited quiet pow

manded the applause OF numerous audiences, an
uniformly penetrated the sacred fount of symp,

we have only TO add, that for her success she hS

trionic talent Of her oadjutors, has been marke
