g' By the arrival'of the regular Overland Mail we have 

 advices from Bombay to the 1st December, and from 

 China to the beginning of October. Sickness continue* 

 to decimate the army of Sir Charles Napier in Scinde,.. 

 and the Indian papers declare that the malaria of the 

 banks of the Indus has proved much more formidable to 

 our .troops than the snows of Cabul. Of an army of 

 13 000 men about one-third are in hospital, and of 8504 

 men composing the garrisons of Hyderabad and Kur- 

 rachee, no less than 3856 are on the sick-list. The 

 affairs of the Punjaub still occupy the attention of the 

 Indian Government, and a crisis is expected as soon as 

 the Governor-General has reached the Sutlej, where a 

 powerful force is concentrating under the command of 

 Gen. Hunter. Heera Singh, the son of the late Minister 

 of Runjeet, still retains his power, and has the child 

 king Dhuleep in his custody. He has also obtained the 

 support of his uncle, a leading hill-chief, who has entered 

 Lahore with an army of 20,000 men. In Gyahor 

 civil war still prevails, and the Military preparations oa 

 the frontier have been accelerated in anticipation of fur- 

 ther disturbances calling for British intervention. In 

 Affghanistan, although the rumoured murder of Dost 

 Alahommed proves to be a fabrication, the position of 

 that chief is daily becoming more precarious. He is 

 threatened with invasion from Bokhara, and his son, 

 Akhbar Khan, who has been made governor of Jellalabad, 

 is expected to seize upon Peshawur, which is now left 

 undefended and open to attack from all the plunderers of 

 the Khvber Fass. — In China, the sickness in ouf 

 new colony at Hong Kong excites general alarm, and 

 it is even rumoured tbat the British authorities con- 

 template the abandonment of the island. The settlement 

 of the supplementary treaty, by which the Chinese gua- 

 rantee to all foreign nations the same privileges of trade 

 as those enjoyed by the British themselves had given 

 great satisfaction. The accomplishment of this object waa 

 regarded at Canton as a triumph of diplomacy on the 

 pa°rt of Sir Henry Pottinger, as it renders useless all th. 

 attempts of the French and American missions recently 



sent to China. . 



From France we learn that the elections of the Presi- 

 dent and Vice-Presidents of the Chamber of Deputies, and 

 of the Commissioners on the Address in both Chamber, 

 have terminated in favour of the Cabinet. In the Housa « 

 of Peers the commission has been instructed by all tb*< 

 bureaux to insert in the Address a paragraph against th«* 

 RoyalUts who visited the Due de Bordeaux ia London ; 

 but Ministers, it is said, do not intend to suggest such a 

 measure in the Chamber of Deputies. The proceedings 

 of the Royalist party are the subject of unceasing vigi- 

 lance; five Legitimist journals have been seized within 

 three days, and two more Mayors of provincial towns have 

 been dismissed for the part they took in the late demon* 

 strations of Belgrave Square— From Spain we have the 

 important announcement of the dissolution of the Cortes— 

 a measure which is regarded as another step towards the 

 absolute power of the military Cabinet. Great anxiety ll felt 

 at Madrid for the result of this policy, and while one party 

 is demanding the immediate return of Queen Christina,, 

 others have merged their political differences and united 

 for the recall of Espartero, whom they describe as the 

 only man capable of saving Spain at the present crisis. 

 Senor Olozaga has taken refuge in Portugal, to escape ^ 

 plan of assassination which had been revealed to him, and 

 is now in Lisbon.— From panada we have some fur- 

 ther details of the recent differences between the Governor- 

 General and the Executive Council. The Legislative 

 Assembly have passed a resolution disapproving of the 

 Governor's proceedings, and have followed it up by an 

 address of remonstrance. The Governor General 

 in reply concurs in the principle of a consulting 

 Council, but refuses to surrender the prerogative of the 

 Crown by submitting all appointments to the sanction of 

 a Council, which may convert them into party questions, 

 or use them for party purposes.
