again reporting all well and tranquil. This is all that is to be said—and it is enough.

In the absence of more dignified disturbances, we are regaled with a snug little riot at Jullundur. The Mussulman inhabitants of that place, urged by a vehement longing for beef (a feeling in which all good Englishmen will sympathize), implored the Commissioner to grant permission for the opening of a butcher's shop, a luxury then it appears unknown in that unenlightened spot. The required permission was accorded, and a shop for the sale of the much-coveted food was opened outside of the city, its location being, we presume, determined with a view to avoid giving offence to those (the larger part of the popu lation) who had not yet acquired a taste for the " "king of meat." But this precaution was insufficient to neutralize the hostility of the Hindoos, who proceeded without delay to the Commissioner, and threatened to close the grain-shops, thus dooming the partisans of the beef movement, if they would indulge in their favourite viand, to adhere to it altogether. Animal or vegetable, beef or bread, was the option, but both could not be allowed. The Commissioner stood by the butcher and his patrons, and the anti-beef-eating league, numbering some fifteen hundred persons, became thereupon greatly excited. Attempts were made to disperse them, but for a time without success; some troopers of irregular cavalry, who were employed on the duty, were very roughly handled, and the Commissioner himself was pelted. The treasury guard of regulars was then turned out—it was certainly high time— and the leaguers dispersed. But the grain-shops were closed, and remained impracticable; so we who, not long since, were looking with anxious expectations for news decisive of the fate of Sikh state, are waiting the further intelligence of the results of this conflict between the carnivorous and granivorous people of Jullundur.

The Governor-General remained at Simla, but was expected to leave for Calcutta about the 20th of August.

On the affairs of NEPAUL we find the following

"In Nepaul affairs remain in a very unsatisfactory state, the prime minister living in constant danger of assassination by the ex-king and the refugee chiefs. A number of these would-be assassins had been detected, seized, and punished, and, despairing of success by means of such agency, the exiles had determined to invade the country with the eight thousand men who still adhered to their fortunes. While the deposed monarch and his chiefs were planning this bold movement, a report reached their camp at Seegowlee, that four British regiments, with some artillery, had been ordered from Allahabad to act against them. This rumour created the greatest panic. The ex-king, in particular, was for an immediate flight, and it was only on the British political officer on duty with the camp pointing out the absurdity of the report, that confidence was restored.

[ocr errors]

A late number of the Delhi Gazette reports that the af

fairs of the ex-king had become desperate, his followers being nearly all dispersed, and the British Government having recognised the usurper.

In regard to GoOMSOOR, there are different statements, but, on the whole, the aspect of affairs seems pacific. Mr. GRANT, who has been appointed commissioner in Orissa, for the purpose of inquiring into and reporting upon the actual state of these districts, had arrived at the site of his investigations, but had not yet commenced them.

From the Nizam's territory there are, as usual, a multiplicity of reports, but none of them appear to rest upon such foundation as can entitle them to notice.

The Presidencies contribute but little to the stock of intelligence. One important article of information, and which is always looked for with peculiar interest, is the annual relief, which will be found in its proper place.

It has been determined to establish a monthly steam communication between Calcutta and Assam, by way of Dacca, and carry it on for three years certain, whatever may be the pecuniary result. The first boat was to start on the 13th of August.

The guns captured in Scinde, which were about being sent to Europe to be cast into a Meanee monument, have been sunk in the barque Stalbart, which grounded near Saugor, while on her way

to sea.

Nothing has yet been heard of the steamer Cleopatra, which left Bombay for Singapore so long ago as April. There are rumours of some vessels being seen, which might be the Cleopatra, but this is all. Whether she has been captured by pirates, or has met destruction from accidents of the sea, little hope seems to be entertained of her.

CHINA is at the present the point to which, beyond all others in the East, attention is most earnestly directed. The news is hardly so bad as was expected, for the actual commencement of hostilities was already calculated upon. The state, however, of the feelings of the British plenipotentiary and the Chinese people has as yet found adequate vent in words. They are laborious correspondents, but little progress seems to be made towards bringing matters to a conclusion. Sir JOHN DAVIES is believed to have applied for reinforcements from India, and it is certainly not improbable that we may have another "little war" upon our hands before long. The dream of Manchester that she should clothe all the hundred millions of Chinese with her fabrics does not seem likely to meet a very early realization.

BENGAL. MISCELLANEOUS.

LOCAL.

MEETING OF THE UNION BANK.-At the half-yearly meeting of the Union Bank held to-day at twelve o'clock, it was resolved that the directors be requested to prepare explicit information regarding the state of that part of the funds of the bank invested in indigo securities, against a special meeting to be held on the 21st of August; and further, that the Supreme Government be memorialized to remove the prohibition against its civil and military servants being concerned in the directorship of jointstock companies. The above is the substance of the two most important resolutions. The appointment of new directors awaits the result of these applications.-Hurkaru, July 17.

MEETING OF THE INDIA GENERAL STEAM NRVIGATION COMPANY.-The meeting of the India General Steam Naviga. tion Company took place yesterday afternoon, according to advertisement, and was numerously attended. There was as may have been anticipated, a somewhat large proportion of talkee talkee to the amount of the business done; but on the whole the affair went off more quietly than many had expected. John Storm,

Esq. was in the chair, and Messrs. Hume, Clarke, Theobald, Judge, Fergusson, Gordon, Muller, and Mackenzie took principal parts in the discussion. The results of the debate were resolutions-for the appointment of Messrs. Muller and Ross to audit and report on the accounts,-for the reception of the report of the directors, including those of the committee, on the loss of the Sir Herbert Maddock, &c., and for the calling of another general meeting on the 1st of September, to consider the report and accounts, and for the transaction of other business. -Ibid. July 20.

STORM.-Yesterday afternoon about four o'clock the neighbourhood of Tank- Square was startled by a vivid flash of lightning, followed instantaneously by one of the sharpest claps of thunder that we remember to have heard. We have not heard of any accident, but that some damage was done by the lightning seems extremely probable.-Ibid. July 27.

ABKARI SUPERINTENDENTS.-Government has determined on making three abkari divisions in Lower Bengal, viz. Calcutta, Dacca, and Patna. The first two are already under Mr. S. Palmer and Mr. Donnelley respectively. A new commissioner is to be appointed for the Patna division. We hear that Mr. Donnelley will be transferred to the Patna division, the duties of which require an experienced hand. — Ibid. August 2.

CHESS CLUB.-Thirteen persons have already enrolled their names as members of the proposed chess club, and the book is now in circulation. We believe there will be no objection to the room of the Metcalfe Hall, the use of which has been permitted, being kept open in the evening. It is proposed to establish a small library of books on chess out of the funds of the club, after it is set agoing.—Ibid.

A BIT OF SCANDAL.—A curious criminal case is likely to come on for trial at the Supreme Court. A young man, legally an infant, finding his union with the lady of his choice opposed, decided on a runaway match, procured a license, and the couple were joined together by a regular presidency chaplain. The young man's father is entirely against the marriage, and denies its validity, the bridegroom being a minor. It is not known what ulterior proceedings it may be intended to adopt, but an indictment for conspiracy has been prepared against three parties, namely, the young lady's uncle, her brother, and another, who are accused of having combined together to bring about the marriage.-Ibid. Aug. 5.

SIMLA, July 17.-The Theatre.-The new Simla Theatre was opened last night, and although the weather was unfavourable yet the house was well filled, and moreover honoured by the presence of the Governor-General and Commander-in-Chief. The pieces selected for the evening's performance were The Irish Tutor" and "Raising the Wind," two farces which, although old, can still never be the worse for wear. --Mofussilite, July 23.

Bank Meeting.-There was a meeting at the bank yesterday to take into consideration a proposition to increase the capital by 1,000 shares, at 500 Rs. per share, which was unanimously carried. The affairs of the bank seem to be in a flourishing condition.

Horse Disease at Ghazeepore.-We hear that a dreadful mortality has occurred in the stud at Ghazeepore. In three days several of the most valuable horses died, the value of which has been estimated at 50,000 rupees. The disorder with which the horses were afflicted is said to be a murrain; sometimes they were attacked with a pain in the fore leg, sometimes in the hind, in short the disease, as it has been described to us, is of the nature of a plague, hurrying on to a crisis in a few hours, and carrying off the animals: but the most curious part of this calamity is, that the best horses only have been the victims of the disease which has got amongst them.

Departures. July 16. Dr. G. G. Givins to Meerut. 17. Ens. A. A. Bruce to Goruckpore. 18. Lieut. J. Marquis to Allahabad.-Ibid. July 23.

Departure.-July 24. Ensign Mercer, to Cawnpore. — Ibid. July 27.

Weather. A slight shower on the night of the 27th: otherwise as dry as a bone. Thermometer 88 to 93 degrees. Shipping.-The Patna steamer passed up on the 28th instant.-Ibid. July 30.

CUTTACK, July 22.-Weather.-Yesterday we had a fall of rain such as is worth recording. It came down in torrents from 11 A. M. to 1 P. M.; and in those two hours the fall was 5 inches! On the evening of the 20th we had a nor'-wester, and some rain. The total fall during the 24 hours from 4 P. M. of the 20th to the same hours on the 21st, was inches 6.90, being one inch more than that of any one day during the rains of 1846. From the morning of the 17th to the evening of the 20th we had no rain. The fall of 5 inches in two hours is not equal to that recently observed at Bombay of 4.22 inches in one hour; but certainly it comes nearer to it than any we have seen recorded.-Hurkaru, July 27.

DELHI.-Rain.-The following is a memo. of the quantity of rain which has fallen since our last :July 26, morning evening.
