The Cotton market is buoyant, and
prices on some descriptions have slight
ly advanced.
The most important news relates to
the proposed alterations Of the Tariff.
The principal change proposed is
considerable reduction on the sugar du-
ties, SO as to reduce the price in favor
of the consumer l Led per ID. It's
also proposed to repeal the duty on
cotton and wool, the tax on exports in
GLIDING Goals, the excise on glass, and
action duties, and prospectively on
spermaceti, sperm oil, train oil and

series for bi-mon,hlv communication
le!i Madras on the 18th. Ceylon on the

The news by this mail is of more
importance and interes, than the over
land mail has brought for months.--
The Puniaub is again in commotlon -
4 revolution b oke out, and Here
Singh. the Rsjah and Jella Pundii,
have been killed.
A revolution had also taken pace in
Ntpaul. The rajah had promised TO
abdicale in favor Of his son. When
the iimc came, he refused--on which
the son, assis ed BY some chief deposed
him. The new rajah is only II years
old, and an idiot. The Government
would be compelled to interfere. The
war, however, was expected to be one
OF diplomacy rather than of arms.
The intelligence from China extends

was not then dead. but il is alleged that
little hope Of his recovery was enter
tanned.
The report tina, the Emperor had alb

which was sen, 10 Europe for ratfca-
