Carnac to Lieutenant-Colonel Ovans, Resident at Sattara, dated August 30, 1839 (printed Par. Papers, p. 469); a proclamation issued by Lieutenant-Colonel Ovans, dated September 5, 1839 (printed Par. Papers, p. 1153); a letter from Lieutenant-Colonel Ovans to Sir James Rivett Carnac, dated Sept. 5, 1843 (printed Par. Papers, p. 470); and a minute by Sir James Rivett Carnac, dated Sept. 4, 1839 (printed Par. Papers, p. 265), be submitted to the consideration of counsel, and that an opinion be requested, whether the dethronement of his Highness Pertaub Shean, the ex-Rajah of Sattara, was or was not a violation of an Act passed in the thirty-third year of the reign of his Majesty George the Third, chapter 52, sections 42 and 43; and that such opinion, when obtained, be laid before a Special Court, to be convened for the purpose of receiving and considering the same. This motion was also rejected, and almost unanimously. MISCELLANEOUS. SERIOUS ACCIDENT TO MR. J. M. HOGG. We regret to state that a serious accident has happened to Mr. J. M. Hogg, eldest son of J. W. Hogg, Esq., M. P. for Beverley, and Deputy Chairman of the East-India Company. Mr. Hogg, junior, has been for a short time a guest of the Duke of Buckingham, at Wootton, Bucks, where a select party had assembled to enjoy the sports of the field. On Monday several of the party went out shooting in his Grace's preserves, when unfortunately the gun of Mr. Hogg burst, and very severely injured his right hand; so much so, that it is expected one of the fingers must be amputated. Medical assistance was immediately obtained, and no danger is at present anticipated. Mr. Robarts, son of the banker in Lombard-street, was one of the party, and immediately after the accident occurred left Wootton, by express, for town, to convey the melancholy intelligence to the family. Mr. Robarts arrived in town on Monday, at five o'clock, and finding that Mr. Hogg, senior, was at his seat, at Eastwick Park, near Leatherhead, Surrey, he immediately. proceeded there, and that gentleman instantly left for Wootton. Mr. Hogg, junior, is going on favourably. DELAY OF THE MAILS AT ALEXANDRIA AND MALTA.-Merchants connected with the East Indies are anxious that some improvement should take place in the portion of the Indian mail service between Alexandria and Malta. "For three successive months," says the Alexandrian correspondent in the Times of to-day, "have the Bombay mails been detained for five or six days." The reason assigned for the delay is, that the ships have succeeded in avoiding the usual delay by the monsoon, and have therefore come sooner than was expected. But surely if this improvement in navigation is attained, there ought| to be some modification in existing arrangements to give England this benefit of it. As it is, the French have a steamer to take off their letters as soon as they reach Alexandria, while ours lie waiting for days. There is the more reason to look to this matter, as persons practically acquainted with the navigation of the Red Sea declare that, as greater experience is acquired in the currents, &c., less and less delay will be occasioned by the monsoons.-Times, Sept. 3. THE SILVER FOUNTAIN PRESENTED TO MEHEMET ALI BY THE EAST-INDIA COMPANY.-On the 16th of August, Captain Lyons, agent to the Hon. East-India Company, presented to Mehemet Ali, in form, the silver fountain which the Court of Directors of the East-India Company have sent to his highness. All the British residents were present on the occasion, and the Pasha seemed highly gratified with the gift, and acknowledged the reception of it in the most gracious terms. There is no doubt the Viceroy fully appreciates the motives of the EastIndia Company in sending this magnificent present, and that his highness will continue to facilitate, by every means in his power, the transit of the mails through Egypt. Colonel Barnett, our consular-general, was not present on this occasion, and he thought proper, the day before, to notify to Captain Lyons, that he disapproved of the British residents accompanying him from his house to the Pasha's residence, as it was their intention to do, in order to give some effect to the ceremony. On the same day, Capt. Lyons gave a déjeûner to the British residents, at which Artin Bey, the prime minister, and Colonel Barnett, were present. On the 18th, Mehemet Ali invited to dinner at his palace, at Ras el-teen, Capt. Lyons, Colonel Barnett, and the heads of the leading English houses in Alexandria; and this circumstance alone, the first on record of the Pasha having invited the merchants, as a body, proves the gratification his highness feels for the present sent to him.-Times. DINNER TO SIR J. EMERSON TENNENT.-Previously to the departure of Sir James Emerson Tennent, his friends entertained him at a farewell dinner at Lovegroves. The Irish society of London took the initiative in this mark of respect to its founder, and a splendid dessert service, of the value of 100 guineas, was presented by his fellow-countrymen to the new secretary for Ceylon. Serjeant Murphy, M.P., presided, Dr. Croly filling the vice-chair. Dwarkanaut Tagore graced the meeting, which numbered many distinguished artists, merchants, and literary characters. An admirable address was read by Mr. R. Bell, and acknowledged by the distinguished guest. ORGAN FOR ST. PAUL'S CATHEDRAL, CALCUTTA.-We understand that the organ for this beautiful cathedral is completed, and will shortly be sent to its destination. SIR HENRY POTTINGER.-It is stated that Major-general Sir Henry Pottinger, who is now on a tour in Scotland, with Lady' Pottinger, will receive the colonelcy of the 75th foot, rendered vacant by the demise of Sir William Hutchinson.-Morning Chronicle. COLONEL MOSELEY. The case of Colonel Moseley, whose trial, growing out of the unfortunate disaffection manifested by his regiment when under orders for Scinde, terminated, as our readers will remember, in his dismissal, with recommendation to mercy, which was not attended to, is now, we hear, under consi. deration by the Court of Directors and Board of Control, and we have the past clemency of these authorities, in cases less cryingly calling for it, for thinking, as we do, that it will eventuate in the restoration to the service of that old and unfortunate officer. The rebellion, not of a single regiment but of the whole of the coast army, in 1809, against the government of Sir George Barlow, caused by the withdrawal of the allowances hitherto made to commanding officers of native regiments, for providing their men with camp equipments, was so alarming in its character and progress as at one time to create fears that it would terminate in the break-up of our Indian empire. Our Indian annals record the fact that the mutireers went the daring length of actually seizing Seringapatam, and that at the head of two battalions of sepoys, they had a smart skirmish with the king's troops that beseiged them; in short, every thing threatened a most perilous crisis, when Lord Minto, who was universally loved and respected, arrived among them, and by his tact and firmness restored tranquillity. He published a general amnesty, pardoning all the subordinate European officers who had taken a share in this serious and unnatural disaffection, and ordered all the leaders in it to be brought to trial, which terminated in their ignominious dismissal, instead of being sentenced to be shot, as everybody expected would be their fate. Even these, after a time, were restored to their commissions, an instance of signal clemency which was well returned by the subsequent career of these brave but misguided men. We point to this instance of justifying, but positively enjoining similar extension of forgiveness the exercise of judicious and well-requited clemency, as not only to the brave and less culpable Colonel Mosely; and as impartiality in the distribution of justice has ever been a prominent feature in the character of the Hon. Court, we are confident that the present appeal to their mercy, of an old and, perhaps, only unfortunate officer, will be successful.-Limerick Chronicle. COLONEL LOWE.-Never was there a resident more kind and considerate than Colonel Lowe. He understood his own position, and had sense to perceive that he gained more credit in fulfilling its duties than by stepping out of his sphere. Contented with exercising the legitimate authority of his station, he had no ambition to be " Mayor of the Palace" at Lucknow, or to maintain the balance of power between the rival factions around the throne. He was satisfied to look on in small matters-ready to advise in great ones. He was a plain soldierly man, who, having served an apprenticeship to politics under Malcolm, fought at Mehidpoor, and afterwards trod the intricate paths of Indian diplomacy at Jeypore, and with Bajee Rao, was well adapted for the Lucknow Court: doubly so, as being in his own character the very antithesis of every thing there; straightforward integrity, opposed to crooked chicanery. Colonel Lowe had seen enough of native courts to understand and fathom them, while he had escaped their corruptions.-Calcutta Review. In THE FOUNDER OF THE FAMILY OF PRINSEP. Mr. John Prinsep was regularly bred to the profession of a cloth merchant in the City of London, and very early in life became intimately acquainted with the manufactures of "Glasgow, Paisley, Dunfermline, and Edinburgh, of Manchester, and Blackburn; with the fabrics of Ireland and Silesia; of Russia and Haarlem." 1769, he received the thanks of a committee of directors appointed to examine his information relative to the improvement of the Company's fabrics. He arrived in Bengal, as a cadet, in 1771, but soon obtained permission to resign the service. 1773, he was appointed an alderman of the Mayor's Court, in the very last year of its existence; and five years after received the appointment of Assistant Superintendent of Investments. This office was abolished in 1785, from motives of economy, but he continued to discharge the duties without salary, till March, In 1787. The next year he returned to Europe, and the following year the office of Cloth Superintendent having become vacant by the departure of Mr. Blaquiere, he memorialized Government, in the hope of obtaining it; but here our information fails us, and we are unable to state whether he was successful or not. During his residence of seventeen years in India, he was employed in the most active and useful undertakings. He was for ten years contractor for the chintz investment of the Company; and if he did not originate the manufacture, he contributed in no small degree to its improvement. It was by the workmen drawn from the establishment he had set up at Munerampore, that the wooden blocks with which Dr. Marshman printed the first edition of the Chinese New Testament were engraved. But that which renders his name particularly memorable in India, is the manufacture of indigo, which he introduced into Bengal, and which has contributed so greatly to its prosperity and opulence. He supplied Government with this article for several years on contract. Latterly, he turned his fertile mind to the coinage, and contracted with Government for the supply of the first copper coinage ever struck in Bengal. It is singular that although Mr. Hastings had resolved, in 1777, that there should be but one mint allowed for the coinage of money, and that it should be established at Calcutta, Government encouraged Mr. John Prinsep, five years after, to set up a mint at Pultah, the village immediately to the north of Muneerampore. In compliance with the terms of an award, of which we have not the history, he surrendered the tools and implements of the Pultah mint, in 1784, for an indemnity short of two-thirds of his real disbursement.-Calcutta Review. TESTIMONIAL TO REV. C. W. LE BAS.-The friends of the late Principal of the East-India College are about to afford a permanent mark of their respect for his merits by the establishment of a scholarship at Cambridge, to be called the Le Bas scholarship. Subscriptions are in progress at the different presidencies, and also in this country, where Mr. Hooper, of the college department, East-India House, has been invested with full powers to act on behalf of those with whom the design has originated, in the receipt of subscriptions and all other matters necessary to its success. It is not doubted that the object will be achieved. MOHUN LALL, accompanied by Captain Lewis, and taking with him his Eastern servants and equipage, embarked on board the Antwerpen steamer, Capt. Jackson, on Sunday morning, the 21st Sept., on his way to the Rhine. EXPORTATION OF SALT TO THE EAST INDIES.-"We are informed," says the Liverpool Albion, "that no less than from 20,000 to 30,000 tons of salt have been exported hence to the East Indies within the last three months. The enterprize is expected to return a very handsome profit."
