THE POST-OFFICE.-We understand that Mr. Taylor, whose appointment to the Postmaster generalship has given satisfaction to the public, has applied to the government for an increase of his establishment, which is universally acknowledged to be a numerically inefficient one. The amount of business since the establishment of the bi-monthly steam communication has been nearly doubled. The assistants of no other office are so much overworked. Under such circumstances, it is utterly impossible for the postmaster-general to meet the demands of the public. It is, therefore, earnestly to be hoped that his application will be complied with, and that the Post office will be placed on a more respectable footing with regard to the number of men.

PRICE OF GRAIN.The price of grain in and about Calcutta has risen so high as to put the poor natives to serious inconvenience. The failure of the crops in several districts by the late inundation and the favourable accounts received by the last mail have, doubtless, contributed to this increase in the prices. Moonghy is selling at Rs. 1-10, and Ballam at Rs. 1-12. The 1. rice market in the Mofussil appears to be worse off than that of Calcutta There, rices of all description have participated in this advance in value much more largely than in the city.Ibid., 9 Oct. 28. 16

MR. E. CULLIN We understand that the Most Noble the Marquess of Tweeddale has appointed Mr. E. Cullin to officiate as Secretary to the Marine Board, during the absence of Mr. Boyson, and the employment of Mr. Franklin on other duty.Ibid.

MORADABAD. We are glad to hear that the late rains have done a great deal of good in Moradabad. The people there have been relieved from the close and oppressive weather, which had rendered them extremely uncomfortable, and the fever and dysentry, and cholera, which had prevailed to an alarming extent, have hearly disappeared.-Ibid., Oct, 24.

BUNDLEKUND

I

We regret to hear, that sickness has for some time been prevailing to an alarming extent in the district of Bundlekund, and that the late rains do not appear to have effected there any change in it.--Ibid,, Oct. 29.

despairing ryots have been revived in consequence of the late rains. The rice market has come down, and the fears entertained of the all but certain failure of the crops have been entirely removed. One thing, however, is to be regretted-viz. the rains have been in some places so violent that a large number of houses have been completely swept away. But this is nothing compared to the good effected.Ibid., Nov 6

NEW ARTICLES OF WAR.We hear that the new Articles of War were read at Agra, , on the 7th, and that the only foult found with them, by the native officers and sepoys, is, that the infiction of corporal punishment is confined to too few offences. We are told that, in some places, a little fear was exhibited on the part of the authorities, as to the manner in which the new arti. cles might be received by the troops. At Umballa, where they were to have been read on the same day, some strange apprehensions were entertained that they might cause a mutiny among the troops, in consequence of the re-introduction of corporal punishment, and consequently the reading was countermanded-very needless, we think though we hear the same alarm prevailed at head quarters. It is rather singular that those who have deliberately loaded the mine, if such it be, should want resolution to put the match to the train; but as far as our information extends, there was not the slightest reason for the sp prehensions entertained.-Englishman, Oct.22.

VISIT TO AGRA COLLEGE BY THE GOVERNOR-GENERAL-On Monday morning, the 27th inst., the Governor-General visited the Agra College. The following gentlemen, members of the Committee of Public Instruction, and others, were present: Messrs. Thornton, Davidson, Edmonstone, Elliot, Boldero, Jackson, Reid, Captain Graham, and the Rev. Mr. Moore. Shortly after ten A.M., his Honour the Lieutenant-Governor, accompanied by Captain Grant, aide-de-camp, and Mr. Shakespear, arrived at the college, and about half-an-hour after, the Governor-General made his appearance, attended by

different departments, heard the first class read and explain passages in Milton and Bacon, and expressed his satisfaction at what he had seen and heard in terms which must have been highly gratifying to Messrs. Middleton and Williams, the principal and head master. As Sir Henry was on the point of leaving, a small native gentleman (of about two feet nothing) solicited an audience of the Governor-General, and being introduced in proper form, humbly petitioned, on behalf of himself and fellow-students, first for one, and on being encouraged and patted on the head by his Excellency, for two days' holidays, The Governor General, with the great good-humour, was pleased to grant the prayer of the petition, whereupon the small boy mounted a table, and shouted aloud, with highest glee, the announcement of the boon conferred to the estatic delight of

his juvenile companions, who, as is wont among the rising generation of all countries, appeared to be fully alive to the blessings of liberty.-Agra Ukhbar, Oct. 29.

MILITARY INTELLIGENCE The 36th regiment Bengal Infan try was unable to march on Monday, in consequence of the deficiency of carriage; they quitted Delhi yesterday morning, and proceed towards their destination by half marches, in conse quence of the generally debilitated state of the men. The num ber of sick on Monday was still somewhere about 660. The 45th regiment have been substituted for the 4th, as escort to the commander-in-chief, The 63rd were taken off duty at Umballah on the 7th, and it is said to be accompanied by Major Mackinlay, to Sukkur.

THE FEROZEPORE MAGAZINE We mentioned in our last, that doubts existed as to the fact of the ammunitions seized at Ferozepore having been stolen from the magazine at that station, and are happy to say, they have been confirmed to us on unquestionable authority. The loads of the hackeries consisted of old battered leaden balls, which had been used at infantry and artillery practice (now merely useful as old lead), and somes condemned and broken-up nave-boxes, which had been, under instructions, sold by auction, and the proceeds long since carried Foto the credits of Government. The reason why the stores were siezed, was because they were passing over under a false permit; had they been registered as old leaden bullets, and o'd broken nave-boxes, (no objection would have been offered to their free

The 63rd Bengal Infantry were to quit Umballah this day, and proceed by half marches, so as to reach Loodheeanah on the 7th; full marches from thence will enable them to reach Ferozepore on the 14th.—Ibid.

FURLOUGH MEMORIAL.—It affords us much pleasure to have it in our power to announce, on what we consider competent bauthority, that the "Furlough Memorial" has received, in addition to the strong recommendation from the Commander-inChief, which we previously mentioned, the further support of the Governor-General. Backed as the documents is now known ito be, and supported, as we have reason to believe it will be at home, we need entertain but little doubt that its prayer will Jeceive attention at least. We regret, however, it is still not in our power to speak positively as to its having left India, but the probabilities are that, having passed the Governor-General, it has been sent home,-Delhi Gazette, Oct. 29.

NT.)

A revolution is going on in Burmah; it at present amounts to the replacing of the old king, formerly deposed by Tharrawaddie, once more upon the throne, and making the Prince of Prome (Tharrawaddie's illegitimate son) temporary regent, By later intelligence from Moulmein, it appears that after the king had killed the prime minister (the Prince of Prome's personal friend) the Prince escaped across the river to Sagain. By news from Rangoon, he is now stated to be in irons, in momentary expectation of execution, and that Tharrawaddie's youngest or ligitimate son is on the throne as regent. As the old king's daughter is to become the wife of the regent, and Bo-moo-mintha, a younger brother of Tharrawaddie is yet alive, the same influence which gave this ascendancy to the regent, over the Prince of Prome, may yet restore the old king, or at least conduce, to the government's cordially receiving our resident at the Court of Ava, agreeably to existing treaties. A letter from Rangoon, of the 25th of October, communicates the horrible murder of his wife, daughter, niece, and three Christian servants, and of Captain Davis himself (commander of the king of Burmah's barque Shuenda"). He appears in some way to have occasioned dissatisfaction to his employer, and was therefore immediately ordered out of the Burmese territory to Moulmein, and to see the due execution of this sentence four Burmese were despatched from Ava with the king's orders. On the 9th October intelligence reached Rangoon that this unfortunate man, with his family and servants, had been barbarously murdered. Besides being decapitated he was cut down the middle, and even a small favourite dog of his was similarly served. It was the general opinion at Rangoon that his Majesty ordered the performance of this piece of brutality, as the four men he sent in the boat looked on at the poor unfortunate victims being murdered. The disturbances in Ava still continue between the king and his illegitimate son, the Prince of Prome, who took up arms against his father with a view of usurping the throne, and subsequently fled into the Shan Provinces with about 3,000 men. Within the last few months Ava has been the scene of much bloodshed, and more so since the flight of the prince. The king beheaded the prime minister for not making his appearance in "the Royal presence until the third time of asking, and many others high in office have shared a similar fate for like reasons of a trifling nature. The strangeness of some of His Majesty's acts led to a supposition of his being temporarily deranged. On one occasion, he sent for his brother (whom he had deposed), cand his conduct, on bowing to whom, having occasioned the too {candid animadversion of a minister present, his Majesty very coolly cut him down dead. This act of severity was, however, greatly contrasted by his royal indulgent permission to his brother henceforth to bear a white umbrella, setting him, moresover, at large, and issuing orders for his accommodation in a mansion suitable to his rank. red

Es Amongst the events of the day, a small Burmese steamer, painted of various colours, somewhat in the Brummagem toy fashion, has recently returned to the presidency from Allahabad, having brought back a Burmese prince, who has been some 3 distance up the country, even beyond Allahabad, but whether exbentions commercial pursuit, or to spy out the nakedness of the land, or whether for both reasons, it is left to ourselves to cobjectureJari 100 20 25 mica me darling Hanə çim edi qui 379 Almemorial is about to be laid before, the Court of Directors

by the officers of the subordinate medical department, praying to be placed on equally advantageous terms in regard to lucrative appointments after a certain lapse of service, with their more fortunate brethren, the other warrant officers of the commisariat departments. A private letter from the Mauritius, mentions the death of Major Wilton, of the 4th regiment Bengal infantry, on board the Madagascar, only two days after leaving the pilot. Much sensation has been excited in this city by a midnight attempt at murder on the part of some native boatmen, who were heard near the bank by a third party in altercation with their fare, subsequently followed by sounds of struggles, shrieking, and silence. A person answering to the dress and description was found clinging to the chain cable of a ship in the river, who stated himself to have been pushed overboard by boatmen, but in consequence of his disordered state and appearance little credit was given to his assertion, and the accident was set down to have been caused by inebriation. The forthcoming of the witnessing party, however, who at the time did their utmost to ascertain the nature of the occurrence and render assistance, has thrown quite a new light upon the subject, and the police department is making every exertion to bring the culprits to punishment. More than once have persons, and more particularly those connected with shipping, been missed, and frequent accidents of a very sus picious nature have occurred, where parties have been drowned with no apparent effort even being made to rescue them. A great reform in this and many other respects relative to internal regulations and management is needed, and it would be well, as charity begins at home," if some little part of all the trouble and attention, so lavished on the prevailing hobby of education committees, were bestowed by the authorities in properly cleansing and lighting the streets, which are at present but dark dens lined with filth; in having a system of numbered licence badges, thereby making certain boatmen responsible in accordance with the excellent home system of street cab and river police; and further redeeming Calcutta from its character of a wild maze of undiscoverable labyrinth, by having the English and native name of every street, legibly visible in both characters upon its corner. How simple, for instance, is the American mode of indication-" Ninth-street," "Tenth-street," But no! the sun will have gone down for ever ere opiniated John Qui Hai will have profited by the better example and tact of others.

In allusion to the above remarks, the gazette of the 25th Oct. has given much satisfaction, by containing the appointment of that alert and indefatigable officer, Capt. F. W. Birch, heretoo tofore superintendent of police, to be a magistrate of the town of Calcutta, and furthermore, the appointment of Lieut. G. W. Hicks, of the 8th Bengal Infantry, to be superintendent of police. A private letter from an officer on the frontier, says, "several corps are now on their way upwards, and to Umballah. Amongst them, I may name the 2nd and 16th Bengal Grenadiers; the 26th, 38th and 42nd Bengal Light Infantry regts; the 27th and 36th regts. Bengal Infantry; H.M.'s 9th Lancers; the 29th, 53rd and 80th regts. of foot; and to these rumour adds also the 43rd Light Infantry, whose place of destination is extended from Meerut to Loodianah. You will see by these movements, that the old Candahar brigade will again be brought together, and it is at the same time observable, that all the rifle company regts. are as much as possible placed in an advanced position. There is no news of moment from the Punjaub just now, but we are in daily expectation of an extra. There is a report current here, that Bhawulpore and Subzulkote, are to be made the site of new stations, but how far to be relied on, time will shew. The 16th Lancers, who have ceased recruiting in this country, and are consequently so strong at the depôt at home, still continues to stand fast at Meerut. An European, the other day, tried to force an entrance into one of the gateways of Government House, notwitlistanding the infor mation that he received from the sepoy or sentry, that such was contrary to rule; however, as he violently persisted, the sepoy coolly brought his bayonet to the charge, which thereupon was seized by his antagonist, and in the struggle ensuing, the ramrod was drawn out and snapped in the sepoy's face. As he was unable to lay hold of the European, who had now taken to fight, he called loudly for assistance, and two or three sepoys and policemen making their appearance, "the chase," after enduring some wholesome discipline at their hands, was compelled to seek protection within an hotel close by, where he was found in a state of much alarm, and taken cognizance of by one of the European constabulary. The sepoy gave a deposition of the affair before the magistrate, who has consequently issued a summons for the appearance of the accused. It is to be hoped that a strict examination will take place regarding the affair, as every countenance and support should be evinced to the native soldiery in the discharge of their duty, and more

particularly when their fidelity is brought more prominently forward in such an instance as this.

The strict and speedy justice accorded in Lord Ellenborough's time in almost a similar case which occurred in the fort should be taken as an example. It would tend, more to prevent the commission of such offences, which might on this occasion have had a more fatal termination, for the sepoy is a very matter of fact gentleman in such cases, as may be easily proved by the recollection of the story of the sentry at Ghuznee, who, on complaining of his inability to keep from passing the flocks of asses, which the country people would persist in driving into >his gate, was hastily told by his hot-headed young subaltern to stick his bayonet into them, which the sepoy put practically into effect on the appearance of the next unfortunate donkey. The miscreant in the above case would have been rather astonished had the sentry carried out his instructions to the letter, and served him as the other one served the donkey! The head-quarters of H.M.'s 61st regt. landed at Calcutta on the 25th of October, and marched out to Dum Dum, where they remain until they move to the Upper Provinces, about the 10th of December next, the remaining detachments landed on the 7th of November, and have likewise proceeded to Dum Dum. Lieut. W. Pogson (lately employed on the staff at the EastIndia Company's depôt at Warley) has been appointed interpre- ¦ ter of Persian and Hindee to that regiment. They are in a very healthy state, and at present between 1,100 and 1,200 strong.

Capt. Nicolson, of the 28th Bengal Infantry, has been appointed to the charge of the Mysore Princes, vacant by the decease of the late Capt. Reid. This officer is about to lead to the altar, an accomplished and beautiful daughter of General Sir George Pollock, G.C.B.
