INDIA.  Bombay papers of August 12 contain t'oc to!lowing paragraphs : The Eaglialt divers sent to Orli= report the possibibty of recovering, within a few weeks, every article of velue sunk in the Penitusdar Lod Oriental Compeers steamer Ara, saw Trincomalee.  The native who was so severely dogged by Lientenan Jackson (Bengal Engiueers) at !)hers Ishmael Khan, baa since died ; and that officer will be tried by court-martial for murder.  Cholera has again broken out at Meerut, and the troops have been moved into camp. It has disappeared from the troops at Peshawur, but has broken out in the city. The Dinapore military scandals have resulted in the resignation of the brigadier of that station, Colonel Burney, and the low of his commission by Lieutenant Crohan, of her Majesty's 35th Regiment. A breach bee taken place between the Nepaidese and Thibetan governments, caused by the murder of a subject of the former at Lassa. The Dhurmaraj of Thibet has, in revenge, sent to the British authorities a letter written to him by Sir Jung Behadoor in December last, declaring his intention to wage war against the British ! Dost Mahommed is pushing matters to extremities in Central Asia. After recovering numb, he at owe marched for Herat. By the latest accounts (10th July) his ad. vanes guard, under command of the heir apparent, was expected to be at Subtawsr on the 12th July, and the Anwar would reach the same place the following day. &hII amar is only 70 mile* from Herat. It is stated that Sultan Ahmed Jan had marched on Suhzawar with a large faros to meet the Dart.  The Sheol, are again giving us trouble. They have broken out in open rebellion, and are looting villages and committing great depredations. A European military force has been sent against them from Mhow. Europeans, however, cennot follow the Meals into the jungles at this season of the year. The punishment of the rebels will not therefore be inflicted till after the rains, when it is hoped that it will be such as to teach them a salutary and lasting lesson.  The general health of the country has declined latterly ; and fears are entertained that cholera will prevail very extensively.  A telegram from Poona, dated August 12, says : —" Mr. Compton, judge of Poona, was accidentally drowned at the Suogum this morning whilst bathing. Body not yet found." Of the Bombay markets, the local Times of Aug. 12 reports :  The excitement which characterised our market a fort night ago has considerably subsided, prices having receded somewhat from the high rani() they had attained. The divided success of the American war makes speculators • little more careful ; but we may at any moment see an acuession of the fever that seized upon the place so lately, Cocioanut-day, the 9th instant, has meanwhile palsied away, and the season is professedly open ; but we regret to state that its prospects are to some extent clouded by a fear that the scarcity of rain In some parts of the country will end in the destruction of the lEhttreel crop. Thus private letters from Oomrawnttee tell us that not a drop of rain has been had there since the first fall, sod that the cotton crop in the surrounding districts is on the point of perishing. In the Poonali and Sbolapore collectoratea, also, the country is parched and yellow, and, although rain fell at the latter station on the 7th and Bth inst., it is feared that the grain crop will be seriously damaged, if not lost.
