INDIA AND CHINA. __s The Indian mail to the 1st of March, brings most impor- tant intelligence from Sciiide. It appears that the Aiiiecrs of Hyderabad, while making arrangements to collect a large army, continued to play “fast and loose” with Major Outram, whom the Indian Govern- me had in December sent to them in order to make terms. It must be recollected that those Ameers, who were long re- garded as tributaries of the Affghan Empire, had within some years enjoyed a sort ol'independence ofall subjection. Their principles were those of Eastern despots who govern the country for their own special advantage. Industry and civilization were at a stand there, while the most fertile dis— tricts along the Indus were turned into wastes orjuiigle de- serts for the preservation of the wild liiiitiials whom those Ameers amused themselves occasionally in hunting and des- ~troying. I The British Government having introduced civilization into a portion of Sciudc, and having taken possession of the Indus, the navigation of which became a matter of general benefit, a demand was made on the Amecrs to give up. for the use of that navigation strips oflaan lying along the river, They, feeling that they could not immediately refuse, tem- porizcd until at length their troops were collected, when on the 14th ofFehruary they sent word to Major Outraiii to re- tire from their city. Major Oiitram, who did not suppose that they would proceed to extremities, delayed. On. the 15th, the residency ofthe British Political Agent, or Minister, was attacked: it was gallantly defended by 100 men lor se- veral hours; but at length their 'au'iinunitiori having been expended, the British soldiers retired, with a small loss, to the steamers, and proceeded tojoiu Sir C. Napier, then at the head ofabout 2,700. men, at a distance ofabouti’O miles from the capital ofthe Ameers. The latter hastened, at the head of 22,000 men, to attack the British force. On the 18th, a battle took place, which can only be coni- pared to the celebrated one at Plassey, in which, after a se— vere struggle oftliree hours, the Aineei's were totally routed and their troops dispersed. The loss ,of'the :Hl'lllsll troops, was considerable. The Ameers on the following day sur— rendered themselves prisoners of war, and Hyderabad was occupied by the conquerors. The capture of" this most ini- portaiit position is ol'imniense value; the valuable and fer-r tile districts along the Indus can now be restored to indus- Vtry and the arts of peace, and millions, as of old, will soon live in happiness in those plains where those despots have, whose splendid apparel and the glittering .uniforms of their followers, contributed to dazzle the eye, ifiiot to liewilder the brain ofthe spectator. Hislordship has given and receiv- ed numerous eutertaiun'ients, and granted audiences to many native rulers; he has visited the public places of the city; and he has had a military spectacle, thongli, from the com- pai'atively small number of regiments :wailable, it was not nearly so imposingr an affair as that at Fei'ochore.

It appears that the plan of an attacfln order to exterminate all the British in Scinde was not confined to IIyderabad,—it exten- ded itself throughout the territories of the Ameers; but their utmost efforts have been baffled, and they are now prisoners. The intelligence fi'om Aff‘glianistan is, that anarchy cou- tinues to prevail there. Akhbar Khan is said to be master ofCabool, and his father, DOst Mahomed, is proceedingr from Lahore towards Peshawar, as if tojoin him. Aklibar Khan has threatened to invade the province ol'Peshawnr, and to take it fi'om the Sikhs, but the good treatment ofold Dost Mabomed by the latter may prevent that invasion. From Candahar news has been received thatSufter Jung had been compelled to quit that city, and to seek safety in flight. . Lord Elleiiliorough, who had arrived at Delhi, on the 5th of Februar , was preparing to go to Agra, where his pre- ' sence was considered necessary, not only on account of the death ofSciiidia, the powerful chief of Gwalior, at the age of27 years, to whom an adopted heir has been named, but also in order to contribute by various arrangeinei‘its to put an end to the disturbances in the Bundelkund districts. Among the repgr was one that the Braliniius at Somiiaiiih had declined _“ i e the mucli-tallted-ofgates, which they regarded as p I y their application to a‘ Mohamiiiedau’s .tomb, and that celebrated trophies were to be sent to another destination. The Courts Martial on the officers engaged in the pro- ceedings at Cabool have terminated in the acquittal of all; lint though the verdict of“not guilty” has been pronounced , funeach, there is a most marked distinction made in tliu re- ‘ marks of the Governor-General and of the Commander—in- and the other‘leiilling officers. The latest intelligence from Canton comes down to the 21“ of January, from which it appears that the Imperial Commissioner Elepoo had arrived there on the 10th, but it was doubted if the negotiations respecting the tariff would commence until after the beginning ofthe Chinese new year, which was on the 30th ofJaiiuary. Sir Henry Pottinger had left Hong Kong for Canton on the 17th, in orderio pay a visit of ceremony. Colonel Malcolm left Bombay on the 18th of February, on board a steamer, in order to deliver the ratified treaty to the Plenipotentiary. ' \ THE VicToaY OVER THE AMEERS. ‘ ' ‘ 'The following account of the victory over the Ai‘neers is abridged from the Official notification issued liytlie Gover- nor of Bombay ;— “0n the morning ofthe 15111 inst., a body of 8,080 men; : with six guns, under the command of Meer Shadad Khan, - one of the principal Ameers, his cousin Meer Mahomed ’ Khan, and many of the principal chiefs, took up a position on three sides ofthe British Residency at Hyderabad, and attempted to force an entrance into the enclosure, which Was surrounded by a low wall offi‘omjl. to Effect inrhcighth, and defended by Major Outram’s escort, composed ot'lOO men of the light Company of Herr‘ll‘ ‘ i ’ regiment, under the command of Capt.

Wells, of the 15th regiment Bombay Native liif'aiftry ; , and Capt. Brown ofthe Bengal Engineers. After keeping » the enemy at bay for nearly four liours,aiid after almost the whole oftheir ammunition was expended, Major Outram and his brave associates effected their retreat in the best possible order to the iron steamers Planet and Satellite, and ultimately formed a junction with Major-General Sir Charles Napier, K. C. 13., at llala. “ The loss sustained in this heroic defence reflects much honour on the defeudeis, and is stated to amount on the side ofthe enemy to 90 killed, and many wounded. “On the following day, the 16th inst., Major-General Sir Charles Napier, K.C.B., marched to Mntbareé, and on his arrival tliere.ascei'taiued that the Aiiieers were in position at. Meeanee, distant about 10 miles, to the number of 22,000 men. Being aware that any delay for re-inforceiiients would both strengthen the confidence ofthe enemy, and add to their numbers, although his own force. was not one-seventh part of that ofthe enemy, Sir Charles Napier resolved upon making an immediate attack, and accordingly marched to- Wards Mceaiiee at 4 o’clock in the morning ofthe 17th. At 8 o’clock, a. ni., the advanced guard of major-General Sir Charles Napier’s force, discovered the enemy’s camp, and at 9 o’clock the British tronps formed in order ofhattle, be- ing composed of about 2,800 men, ofall arms, and 12 pieces ofartillei‘y. The enemy opened a most determined and de« structivs fire upon the British troops, and during the action which ensued, with the most undauuted bravery, repeatedly rushed upon them, sword ~ in band ; after a most resolute and desperate contest, which lasted for upwards of three .hours,the enemy was completely defeated and put to flight with the estimated loss ofabout 5,000 men, 1,000 of whotn were left dead on the field, together with the whole oftheir artillery, ammunition, and standards, a considerable quantity of stores, and some treasure. " * I i “The following day, Meer Roostom Khan, Meer Nusseer Khan, and Meer VViillec lilahomed of Khyrpore, Meer NUS- seer Khan, Meer Sliadad Khan, and Meer Hussein Khan, pf Hyderabad, came into tbecamp of Major-General Sll'.C.

A Committee ofthe House of Commons, in the year1836, in inquiring into the cause ofsbipwrerlts, ascribed a large proportion ofthcm to the practice of drunkenness among the officers and crew, and much evidence was adduced to prove that numbers of lives and an itiimeiiselamount ofprnpoity were annually lost from this cause alone. Besides this, it was also proved thattlie Ameri- cans wore getting a superiority ofthe carrying trade, principally from adopting the temperance principle, the practice ofwliicli was rewarded by the American Marine Insurance Companies on the return voyages.

Il'a vote he come at to all the first question will, ofcourse, be as to the Moderator. It is well known that Dr. Chalmers has been returned by the Edinburgh Presbytery, with a view to his being proposed for that high office; and we hear that both Principal Lesiof Edinburgh, and Principal Macfarlan of Glasgow, are named by their respective friends as his competitors. But it appears to us probable that the secession will take place without any trial of the strength of parties. Now that the appeal in tlie‘ Stewarton case has been withdrawn, the judgment ofthe Court of Session has become filial ; and we may therefore expect that iiitei'dicts will be applied for and obtained agaii'ist any members of Assembly, from quoud sacra churches, tak- ‘ing’ their seats. These interdicts it is not likely that the Non-Intrusion party will be inclined to break; it is most probable that they will enter a protest that this is no fi‘ee Assembly ofthe Church of Scotland, their liberties beingr overborne by the Court of Session, and will at once retire from the House. Thus the disruption will take place at the outset, and before any business is entered on. In the mean- time, it is intended that the Non-Intrusionists, when they do retire, shall hold their meetings in Dr. Candlish’s new church, Lothian Road,the erection of which is proceeding with un- wotited rapidity; and the builder speaks with confidence as to its being ready in time.—Courant. : SLr. or Sara—The Isle ofSkye has, within the last forty years, furnished for the public service, twenty-one Lieuten- ant-Geiiei'alsaud Major-Generals, forty-five Lieutenant-Colo- nels, six hundred Majors, Captains, Lieuteiiants, and snbal- terns; ten thousand foot soldiers, one hundred and twenty pipers, four Governors of British Colonies, one Governor- General, one Adjiitantheiieral,one Chief Baron oftEiigland, and one Judge ofthe Supreme Court of Scotland.

IMPORTANCE or INTELLECTUAL CULTURE.—A cultivated mind, says Dr. Clianiiiiig, may be said to have infinite stores of innocent gratification. Everything may be made interesting to it, by becoming a subject oftliought and iii'. quiry. Books regarded merely as a gratification, are worth more than all the luxuries on earth. A taste for literature secures cheerful occupation tor the unemployed and languid hours of life; and how many persons, in these hours, for want of innocent resources, are now impelled to coarse and brutal pleasure. How many young men can be found in this city who, unaccustomed to find a compgiiion iii a book, and strangers to intellectual activity, are almost driven in a long, dull evening of winter to haunts ofintemperauce and depraviiig society. It is one ofthe good Sins of the‘ times, that lectures on literature and science aria taking their place among other public amusements attract even more than theatres. This is one of the’ first ti-uits of our present intellectual culture. \Vhat a harvest- may we hope for fi'om its wider diffusion.

Alas! the charming notes are notthe only charming things that are no more. But a lovedetterb—how much of'life’s most perfect happiness do those two words contain! With what anxiety it is expected l—with what delight it is received—4t seems almost too great a pleasure to open it.

Through the whole day, with what a conscious thrill its possession is recalled l—with what care is it read over at night, till its contents mingle with our dreams!

The air, therefore, is ati active mass, composed of iiiiiiiberless different principles, the general source of corruption and generation, in which the seeds of things seem to lie latent, ready to appear and produce their kind, whenever they light upon a proper matrix.

Several interesting extracts li'oni papers received by the Human” will, however, be found in previous columns, for which we had noroomvlust week." ' (From the Quebec Gazelle.) Distiii'bances have broken out in Prince Edward Island, we suspect in consequence ofthe difliculties betwaeii the original grantees oflaud from the Crown and actual settlers. It will be recollected that nearly the whole Island was granted, in a state of wilderness, soon after the cession of Canada, to absentee proprietors, with whom and their agents the occupants have been frequently quarrelliiig. Recently, recourse has been had to ejectineiitslrom the lands. A iiii— litary force has been sent from Charlottetown to the dis- turbed district. The Colonial Assembly has frequently endeavoured to obtain a remedy for the alleged grievances ofthe occupants. Latterly, they havo confined themselves to recommendinga remission ofarrears ofreuts, &c., which, in the present times, the occupants probably have not the means of paying. A similar remission was made some years ago by the Crown, in Nova Scotia. Ejectiiieiit from land occupied when in a state of wilderness has always been attended with disturbances in America. With reference to the rejection by the Legislative Council of New Brunswick of the vote of£l75 to the proprietors of the Steamer ST. GEORGE, forthe services performed by that vessel during a considerable portion oflast season, in keep- ing up a steam communication between Miraniichi, Char- lottetown and Pictou, we cannot help remarking, that we can consider it in no other light than a breach of faith, such as no circumstances can justify. It was in a great measure upon the faith ofan annual grant of £350, solemnly pledged by the Legislature of New Brunswick at a former Session, to be paid by that Province on a suitable boat being placed 'on the station, that a Company here was formed for the ex- press purpose—and lo! this is the manner in which the pledge has been redeemed. Let us hear no further outcry against Yankee repudiation of public responsibilities after this. come forward with a vote of £200 in aid of the underta for the‘preseiit year, and we have every reason to believe that if the route were altered so as to go to Arichat weekly instead of Miramichi, the grant would be increased. Vve have reason to think also, that it would pay the proprietors much better than sending her to Mimmiclii, as the inter- course between Pictou and Arichat is much greater than many of our readers are aware of. 4Wliile on this subject, it may not, perhaps, be armies to add, that on Tuesday lest the St.‘Geoi-ge returned to Charlottetown from her first trip thi season to Miramichi; and what do our readers suppose she brought with her?
