FREIGHTS.

To London and Liverpool, 47. 15s. to 51. 5s.

IMPORTS (Calcutta, Nov. 7).-A fair inquiry has prevailed for all descriptions of British Piece Goods, and considerable sales effected, in some cases at prices a shade higher. The stocks are not so heavy now as some time ago.

MADRAS.

OOTACAMUND, October 21.-THE WEATHER. -Our S. W. monsoon has passed off, and the N. E. has now fairly set in, since which much rain has fallen; so much so at Jackatella, on the night of the 14th October, that several huts were washed away, and three natives were killed, several herds of cattle drowned, and building materials, such as Teak timber, Chunam, &c., washed away into the deep ravine near that cantonment. The loss in this way is estimated at about 20,000 rupees.-Theatricals are the order of the day, both here and at the barracks. The farce of "Who is the Dupe?" and "Box and Cox," were performed at Ootacamund, a few days since; by Messrs. J. R. Prager, Schmidt, Crawford, Menzes, S. Prager, and W. Prager, which gave very great satisfaction to the large audience assembled there to witness the plays. Mr. McKennie (who is now amongst us on S. C. from Madras) has sent to the Military Male Asylum, for twelve lads, who are to be apprenticed to a few tradesmen and mechanics on these hills, such as carpenters, shoemakers, shopmen, &c.-A meeting of the "Freemasons' on the Hills" was convened by Mr. McKennie, on the 11th instant, at Dawson's hotel. The object of the meeting was to take into consideration, whether any, and what steps could be taken towards sympathizing with the wives and children of the soldiers and sailors, who may have fallen in the cause of their country, during the present contest with Russia, and also to afford such pecuniary relief as shall be in their power to give, consistent with the honour and character of the craft.-It is rumoured at the barracks (Jackatella), that H. M.'s 74th highlanders, now located there, will soon leave for Cannanore, to relieve H. M.'s 25th regiment, which corps it is said will embark for England on being relieved.

THE WEATHER.-At last, we have had a genuine burst of the Monsoon. The barometer had been gradually sinking from the 17th instant, and the rain commenced to fall in heavy showers during Saturday night; but towards morning it became continuous, and increased in force for several hours after daylight. More may be looked for between the time of our writing this, and that at which it will be put into the hands of our readers; and if the season only continues as propitiously as it bas opened, we shall have abundant cause of thankfulness. We are sorry to have to add to the foregoing weather notice, the intelligence that no rain has fallen since Friday, and that neither is there any promise more this morning.-Spectator, Oct. 23.

BANGALORE.-Two salutes of fifteen guns each were fired (Oct. 23) on the arrival in cantonment of the Hon. Barnes Peacock, Esq., member of the Supreme Council of India, and Sir Arthur Buller, puisne judge of Calcutta.-Herald.

COCHIN (OCT. 15).-The keel of a vessel 141 feet long was laid on Wednesday last, in the building-yard of Messrs. Oughterson and Co., of the burthen of 500 tons. She is to be constructed under the superintendence of their shipwright Mr. Andrew Poney Gueizelar. Cochin now, more than formerly, furnishes an excellent harbour for ship-building, in consequence of the punctuality of the ship-builders and European merchants, as well by the facility which exists in procuring workmen and materials, owing to the several backwater communications. By a new paper from Calicut, which came to our hands the other day, designated the Malabar Chronicle, we have learned that a branch university is to be established by Government at that place (Calicut), that a professor from Cambridge has been appointed to the head mastership, on a salary of Rs. 600 per mensem. If this is true, why cannot the Government bestow a similar favour on the children of the inhabitants of this place ?-on the children of those who contribute a vast revenue to Government? Such an institution is very much needed.

son,

MILITARY ON DITS.-The detachment of Artillery Veteran Company, and detail of the 1st Madras Fusiliers, ordered to proceed on special service, embarked on board the Hugh Lindsay, Oct. 23.-We regret to record the death of Capt. George Simpof the 22nd N.I., at Chinsurah on the 6th Oct. This casualty promotes Lieut. Alexander Cannan to captain, and Ens. Clement Buchanan to lieutenant.-Intelligence has reached us of the likelihood of fresh disturbances in the Goomsur district. The 45th regt. N.I. left Nellore on the 20th Oct., en route to Madras. Their detention here was caused by the difficulty experienced in crossing the Pennaur.-The 35th regt. left the presidency on Oct. 23.

GOVERNMENT GENERAL ORDERS.

THE PEGUE AND ARRACAN ROADS.

Fort William, July 7, 1854.-From the Secretary to the Governor-General of India, to the Commissioner and GovernorGeneral's Agent in Pegue, Hule Department.

Sir, I have received and laid before the Governor-General in Council your despatch, dated 22nd June, 1854, No. 16, forwarding a copy of a letter from Lieut. Forlong, superintending engineer of the Pegue and Arracan roads, &c. reporting that a line of road, 6 to 10 feet broad (at present), with a gradient never exceeding 3 in 100 feet, has been successfully run for upwards of 110 miles in length, 90 over most formidable mountains, upwards of 4,000 feet high, and the western coast of the Bay of Bengal, connected with Prome, on the Irrawaddy.

2. His Lordship in Council desires to record his feeling that this great achievement, accomplished amidst the most novel and harassing difficulties within six months from the time when his lordship, while at Prome, personally learnt Lieut. Forlong's plans, his hopes, and the great difficulties he saw before him, is not only in the highest degree honourable to that officer, but that it confers honour upon that service to which he belongs, and, upon the Government at whose directions he undertook so magnificent a work.

3. The Governor-General in Council desires to offer to Lieut. Forlong, though his work is yet incomplete, the cordial thanks of the Government of India, for the skill, the energy, the tact, and indomitable perseverance with which he has so successfully laboured in the great task entrusted to him. These exertions have been well seconded by the officers under his command on this portion of his line, and I have to request that the thanks of the Governor-General in Council be conveyed, through Lieut. Forlong, to Lieuts. Scott, Ingram, and M'Intosh, for the excellent service they have done in the prosecution of this work.

4. There is so much of public interest to the Government service and mercantile bodies regarding these mountains and adjacent districts in Pegue and Arracan, in Lieut. Forlong's papers, especially his reports of 18th April and 10th May, that his lordship has given directions to have selections from them made and printed, and published in the selections from the records of the Government of India.

5. Paras. 9 and 10, &c. "a tabular statement," &c. of his letter of 10th May, will be sent to the Military Depôt, to be acted upon, &c. I am, &c.

(Signed)

G. F. EDMONTON, Secretary to the Governor of India.
