enough to come within the general rule which was established to prevent abuse, constituted a claim for an exception. (Hear, hear.) Continual applications to Parliament on the merits of individuals were no doubt inconvenient, but so extraordinary an exception as this was perfectly consistent with the maintenance of the rule. (Hear, hear.) He would only add, referring to Lord Aberdeen's instruction, that no exclusive privilege of trade was desired to be obtained for this country which should not be equally extended to other powers; that precisely the same direction was given by the late Government to Captain Elliot, when the disputes with China began. (Hear, hear.)

Lord SANDON explained, that he had never supposed that Sir H. Pottinger acted contrary to instructions, but without instructions. He would add, that he heard it stated by a cabinet minister in Liverpool; that upon his own responsibility, Sir H. Pottinger took upon himself to stipulate that foreign nations should be admitted to trade with China on the same footing as England.

Lord PALMERSTON supported the motion.

Mr. P. HOWARD said, that though Belfast might have been the birth-place of Sir Henry, yet he was closely connected with the county of Cumberland, and it therefore afforded him also much pleasure to concur in the present proposition.

Mr. HUME said that he could only express his regret that the right hon. baronet had not communicated his intentions to him, with respect to his motion, an hour before the House had met that evening, which would have totally prevented the necessity for his having encroached upon their time by bringing it forward in the terms he had done. He thought the right hon. baronet had acted with great prudence in the matter, and all he could now desire, since he had yielded to his motion, was, that it might be suffered to pass, nemine contradicente.

The motion being put from the chair, was agreed to; the hon. member for Montrose exclaiming loudly, after it had passed, "Nemine contradicente."

ROLLS COURT.-FRIDAY, MAY 30.

FARQUHAR V. THE EAST-INDIA COMPANY. Lord LANGDALE gave judgment in this cause on the second set of objections, viz. those relating to the claim against the Company for 4,771 Spanish dollars, in respect of the accounts of the purchasers of the spices, The Master had found that the 4,771 dollars were due for spices collected for the Company by Farquhar at the Dutch settlements, and against this finding the Company excepted. His lordship recapitulated the circumstances and arguments, and expressed his opinion that the accounts produced did not afford evidence to establish the plaintiff's claim. He was far from saying that the case was free from ambiguity. There was a manifest intention on the part of the defendants to favour the plaintiff as far as they could, but the onus probandi was upon the plaintiff, and he had not produced proof, nor was there any foundation for a presumption in his fayour. He must allow the second exception, viz. that of the Company, and overrule the plaintiff's exception, but he could not give costs.

MISCELLANEOUS.

SIR HENRY POTTINGER.-We have very great pleasure in stating that this gallant officer has just received a mark of the esteem in which his services are held by the Chinese authorities, in regard to the treaty lately concluded by him between this country and the Celestial Empire, in the shape of a portrait of the imperial Commissioner Keying, which has arrived in a vessel from China, as a present to Sir Henry from that exalted personage. So express and so direct a mark of the respect in which Sir Henry is held by the Chinese, and the proof thereby afforded of the sense of the highly creditable manner in which he performed his duty to his country, in the capacity of Plenipotentiary of her Majesty, in the conduct of the important affairs intrusted to him, will, we feel assured, be equally a source of gratification to him, and to the public in general, by whom his eminent and successful services are so fully appreciated. - Times, May 28.

DANISH POSSESSIONS IN INDIA.The Copenhagen Journal of the 17th publishes the text of a convention concluded at Calcutta on the 21st of last February, relative to the sale of the Danish possessions in India. The possessions sold are the towns of Tranquebar, and its districts on the coast of Coramandel, Serampore in Bengal, a territory in Belassore, and all the royal domains in those possessions. The price of sale is rupees 1 million.

THE MAILS.-Southampton, May 26.-The last India and China mails, with passengers, and a full cargo, will be taken out by the Tagus, Captain Brooks, to Malta, thence to Alexandria

in the Iberia, and the Tagus will proceed to Constantinople, She sails on the 3rd of June.

TROOPS FOR BENGAL, Chatham, May 29.-Colonel Sir Thomas Willshire, K. C. B., commandant of this garrison, issued this day a battalion order, commanding Colonel Thomas Weare, K.H., to select and to hold the undermentioned detachments from the provincial battalion in readiness to embark at Gravesend on board the several ships for Bengal. The first embarkation takes place on the 3rd of June next, consisting of the following depôts:-The 10th regiment furnishes 3 privates; the 29th, 101 privates; the 50th, 37 privates, with the following officers: -Ensign James S. Richards, 29th; Ensign Charles H. Slessor, Ensign Charles A. P. James, and Ensign William Robert Farmar, of the 50th; also Lieutenant T. R. Hickson, and Ensign C. Robertson, of the 80th. These troops proceed by the ship Lady M‘Naughton, and, on the same day, detachments of the 9th, consisting of 30 privates; 10th regiment, 87 privates; and the 53rd, 45 privates, with the following officers:Lieutenant Mowbray and Lieutenant Oldfield, 53rd; Lieutenant Alexander M'Leod and Ensign William Henry Stirling, 9th. These latter troops are to proceed by the ship Asiatic. And on the 4th of June, a detachment consisting of 22 privates, belonging to the 80th, with Lieutenant Charles Duperier, and Ensign Benjamin H. Boxer, will proceed by the ship Thetis, and on the 10th of June the following troops will embark on board the ship Wellesley.-39th, 84 privates, and 36 privates of the 62nd, with Captain William Matthias, Lieutenant Charles Lambert, Lieutenant Robert Sharman, and Lieutenant Charles Young, all officers of the 62nd; and Ensign Agnew, of the 39th. The whole of the troops will undergo medical inspection at Fort Pitt, previous to their departure. Assistant-surgeon William Murphy, of the 80th, has orders to proceed with the ship Wellesley.

CAPE MINERALS.-Some enterprising persons in the eastern provinces are at this moment shipping large quantities of lead ore at Port Elizabeth, a beautiful specimen of which may be seen at the public library, Cape-town. In the vicinity of Kroom River, some time ago, a slender vein of coal was discovered, and near the Bushman's River an extensive vein of alum, particularly beautiful in its structure, the colour being purely white, of silky lustre, exhibiting delicate fibres six or eight inches in length, running parallel, sometimes straight, sometimes undulating. It is very pure alum and valuable. The lead ore is found in the same region, and it promises to become a valuable article of export. 40 or 50 years ago this lead ore was thought worthy of attention. It was mentioned Barrow and other writers as a rich lead ore of the species known by the name of “galena” (lead mineralized with sulphur). The masses seen by Mr. Barrow had no appearance of cubic crystallization, but were granular or amorphous in some species; the surfaces in others made up of small facets, called by miners white silver ore; the vein of the ore was three inches wide and one thick, increasing in size as it advanced under the stratum of rock with which it was covered. The matrix is a quartose sandstone of yellowish tinge, cellular and fibrous, harsh to the touch, and easily broken. Of this ore, when assayed by Major van Dheu, an officer in the Dutch service, 2001bs. weight yielded 100lbs. of pure lead, and 8ozs. of silver.

PERSIAN STUDENTS.-Five young Persians of rank, selected by the Shah to proceed to France to receive a European education, have arrived in Paris. They are under the care of an Artillery Officer, who formed part of the body of French military men who received permission to proceed to Ispahan to instruct the Persian troops in European discipline.

INDIAN LAW.-We understand that Mr. William Morley, of the Middle Temple, has nearly completed an analytical digest of all the reported cases decided in the Queen's and Company's courts in India, and on appeal to the Privy Council here. A work of this kind has long been a desideratum, and Mr. Morley's publication will be the more valuable inasmuch as it is enriched with a number of decisions of Sir E. West, Sir J. M'Intosh, Sir A. Anstruther, and Sir Erskine Perry, which have never before been published. There will be an appendix, containing a collection of the dicta of the Hindú and Muhammadam law officers attached to the different courts, analytically arranged; and another, in which will appear for the first time a minute on police by Sir James M'Intosh, and other interesting documents concerning the administration of justice in India, hitherto unpublished. It is further stated that Mr. Morley has had access to sources not available to others in this country, and rare even in India.

EAST-INDIA COMPANY'S COLLEGE AND SEMINARY.-The current term of the East-India Company's Military Seminary at Addiscombe will terminate on Friday, the 13th inst.; the chairman (Sir Henry Willock), the deputy-chairman (J. W. Hogg,

Esq.), and other members of the Court of Directors, will be present, as usual, at the half-yearly examination and distribution of rewards on that day. The college term at Hailebury will close on Friday, the 25th inst., when the chairman, deputy-chairman, and court will also attend to receive the report of the principal, and witness the distribution of prizes.

EAST-INDIA RAILWAY COMPANIES.-Upwards of 140,000 shares in the East-Indian Railway Company have already been applied for, being 60,000 in excess of the entire number required for the undertaking, 30,000 of which it is proposed to reserve for India.

COMMITTEE OF BY-LAWS OF THE EAST-INDIA COMPANY.-A meeting of the Committee was held at the East-India House yesterday, June 5th; Richard Twining, Esq., in the chair.

On Saturday, the 7th inst., the Court of Directors of the EastIndia Company will give a grand dinner at the London Tavern, Bishopgate-street. The Earl of Ripon, President of the Board of Commissioners for the Affairs of India, Sir Jasper Nicolls, late commander-in-chief in India, Sir Henry Pottinger, and many other distinguished persons, will be present.
