GOVERNMENT GENERAL ORDERS.
H.M.'S 15TH HUSSARS.

Head-Quarters, Mysore Division, Bangalore, Jan. 29, 1854. -On H.M.'s 15th Hussars quitting the Mysore division on their return to England, Major-General Sewell feels it no less than his duty to state that the conduct of H.M.'s 15th has been an example of the best behaviour in quarters that he can call to mind; he is aware of no instance of greater propriety of military conduct, and sobriety of character in barracks and out of barracks. He has infinite pleasure in making known that in H.M.'s 15th Hussars there have only been one general, one district, and three regimental courts-martial, in the last two years. The 15th have also lately volunteered, and during the carrying out of that order, there were no defaulters: these matters stand on record to the credit of the regiment.

Major-General Sewell will also with pleasure state that the attendance of the soldiers of this regiment, their children and families, at the evening service of our church has been happily and usually numerous; thus remembering their duty also to their God, and doing their best for the comfort of their own salvation. Major-General Sewell offers to Lieutenant-Colonel Smith and his officers his best acknowledgments of their constant zeal in the service of the regiment, and which has so mainly contributed to the establishing the valuable character now possessed by H.M.'s 15th Hussars.

May the blessing of God grant to Lieutenant-Colonel Smith, his officers, and men, a safe passage to England, and a happy meeting with their friends at home.

BRIGADIER ELLIOTT'S ADdress.

Rangoon, 19th February, 1854.-Brigadier Elliott, K.H., will embark to-morrow morning with the head-quarters of H.M.'s 51st K. O. light infantry for Madras and England, and is happy to give over command of this station to Brigadier Franklyn from this date.

On relinquishing the honourable command, consisting of the artillery, H.M.'s 51st K.O.L.I., 9th and 35th regiments of the Madras presidency, to which he was appointed at the commencement of hostilities with the Burmese Government, Brigadier Elliott returns his sincere thanks to the heads of departments, and commanding officers, who acted under his orders during the earlier portion of the late operations, for the able assistance they have at all times afforded him.

The brigadier begs that all officers of the staff who have acted with him, or under his orders in connection with this brigade, will be assured of the high estimation in which they are held by him, for the zeal and attention with which they executed the orders and instructions emanating from the brigadier himself; and he requests that Capt. Lloyd, brigade major, will accept his best thanks for the perfect efficiency and unwearied zeal which he has exhibited in the performance of the onerous duties of his office, both at Prome and since the arrival of the brigade at this station.

Commanding officers are desired to express to the officers, noncommissioned officers, and men, the brigadier's admiration of their gallant conduct in the field, their patient endurance of severe sickness and privations, and their general good conduct, whether in camp or quarters, by which they have well sustained the reputation for gallantry and high discipline which has distinguished the army of the Madras presidency when and wherever employed.

In recording his sense of their excellent conduct, Brigadier Elliott remarks with pleasure that there has been but little crime, and that not an instance of lawless marauding, or of illtreatment of the inhabitants of the country by the troops forming this force, has occurred since its arrival in Burmah.

It is by such steadiness and discipline that the honour of the British name is supported, and the reputation of both officers and men enhanced. Those regiments which are about to return to the presidency, embark with the conscious pride of men who have well performed their duty, and by their soldierly conduct won the approbation of their sovereign and the Government.

In a short time the troops which form the "1st Madras Brigade," late of the "Army of Burmah," will be dispersed; and in publishing this, his last order, Brigadier Elliott assures the officers and men of the brigade, that he will always entertain the warmest interest in their welfare, and that wherever they may proceed, they will bear with them his hearty good wishes.

MAJOR RAWLINSON'S DISCOVERIES.-We take the following from the Bombay Guardian :-"We understand that Major Rawlinson is prosecuting his labours at Bagdad with great energy. He has made some important discoveries of remains in Lower Baby. lonia, the region about Bagdad. He has found among the Assyrian records the name of Belshazzar, completed the list of kings mentioned in the Bible, and is quite satisfied as to the unerring fidelity of the Scripture accounts. He will probably leave soon, and visit Bombay before returning to England.”—Bombay Guardian.

RAILWAYS.-The Bombay Gazette reports that the engineers of the Bombay, Baroda, and Central India Railway Company will complete their "flying survey " as far as Agra by April. Colonel Kennedy, the most influential director of the line, recently arrived in Bombay, stayed only one day, and instantly marched along the railway track. He says there is no difficulty whatever, and is now himself engaged in an amateur survey of the valley of the Taptee.

WRECK OF THE METEOR.-The Sindian reports, that the Meteor, a small steamer belonging to the Indus flotilla, has become a total wreck. She was proceeding from Kotree to Kurrachee, but struck on some rocks near Jerruck. So rapidly did she fill, that her commander felt it advisable to drive her on the nearest bank. The water soon rose nearly level with the decks, only the upper portion of her engines have been saved, and much of her cargo, indigo, has been damaged.

MR. LUARD.-The Bombay Telegraph and Courier now reports, that Mr. Luard has not been restored to his appointment. He has only been restored to the service. According to the Poona Observer, this gentleman is again in trouble. He is suspected of having furnished the information, upon which the Oriental News has founded its attacks on Mr. Goldsmid. All this is scarcely intelligible, but there is one thing still more difficult of comprehension. Who governs in Bombay, that all this is permitted to go on for years? We may notice also that an officer, who was in the district where Mr. Goldsmid is said to have beaten a ryot, denies in the Bombay Telegraph and Courier the entire story. He declares the truth was exactly as we intimated, viz., that the magistrate struck the prisoner with a bridle, but the blow "would not have broken a child's skin."-Friend of India.

MR. MACKAY'S REPORT.-The Bombay Telegraph and Courier informs us that the Court of Directors have ordered the collectors of all the districts, condemned by Mr. Mackay, to forward special reports. These reports will have special reference to the correctness of Mr. Mackay's statements.

DRESS OF THE CAVALRY.-The Bombay Telegraph and Courier reports that Lord F. Fitzclarence intends to submit to the home authorities a new plan for the equipment of the regular cavalry of Bombay. Their dress, arms, and saddles, it is said, are to be entirely changed.

COMMANDER CAMPBELL, I.N.-The East-India Company have communicated to the Bombay Government their resolve to present to Commander C. D. Campbell, I.N., a sword of the value of 200 guineas, with a suitable instription, in testimony of the high sense entertained by the Court of Directors of his services in the Burmese war.
