The news by this mail is Of more importance and
interest than the overland mail has brought tor
months The Punjaub is again IN commonon A
revolution broke out; and Heere Snsn, tne halaI'
and Jella Pundit, have been killed. There are Sc
vcral accounts OF the cause, but the following is
said TO be the most authentic: From the Ill feeling
that has existed for some time between the mother
of the MaharaJah and Heera Singh, an explosion
was looked for, sooner or later, as inevitable she
applied 10 Heera Singh for some command oil trust
for her brother. and was backed in her demand so
warmly by the council of the army, usual on such
occasions, that Heera got alarmed, and put oil the
matter until next day, before daylight OF which ne
was on his way with 500 troops, 10 some place IN
the vicinity of Jumboo. The khasa troops IN La
hore, on hearing this, pursued him, and on coming
up, killed him, Jella Pundit, and several others OF
the Raiah's adherents The heads OF the RaJah
and Jella Pundit were brought 10 Lahore, and car
ried in procession round the streets. The next day,
salutes were fred and the mother of the Mahara-
iah held a durbar The English Government had,
il was believed, no idea OF interfering IN this IN
stance though the time may not be far oil when II
vii! be obliged 10 do so.
revolution had taken place also in Nepaul:--
The rajah had promised to abdloate IN favor OF his
son. When the time came, he refused on which
the son. assisted by some chiefs, deposed HIM. The
new raiah is only II years old, and an idiot. The
Government would be compelled 10 interfere. The
war, however, was expected 10 be one OF diploma
cy rather than OF arms.
There had been rather serious disturbance at
Hong Kong in consequence of registration decree
issued by Government, which was resisted by the
Europeans, who, in an address to the council,
styled it as "inquitous, arbitrary, unconstitutional
and despotc." A good deal OF ckrlng was the
result between Government and the Europeans, as
the former refused 10 answer The address Three rec
Government deemed it fit to :" md and modify"
the registration ordinance. There was STILL how
ever some articles in the modified decree
which were Objectionable; for instance, that of
obligpg all Chinese vessels TO report themselves
Immediately, and to register their passengers with
in twenty-four hours. The consequence OF this is,
that while Macao is crowded with junks, few or
none have come TO Hong Kong. Most of the Chi
nese who left the island had, however, returned.-
The report that the Emperor had abdcatcd iniavor
of near relation is totally without confirmation.
The report also of his expected death is equally so
II is denied that Colonel OuIram was superseded,
but stated that he resigned voluntarily.
