INDIA.

One of the professed objects for which the expedition to Affghanistan was undertaken, was to open the Indus for the transit of British merchandise, and ren. der it one of the great highways of Asia. This object has not been lost sight of, though Affghanistan has been abandoned; and the Bombay Government has lately directed its attention to getting from the Ameers of Sinde such a treaty as would secure the safe navigation of that great river. In December, Maj. Outram was despatched to Hyderabad to conclude the best terms in his power with the native chiefs. A demand was made on the Ameers of Hyderabad to give up for the use of the navigation certain strips of land lying along the river. They, feeling that they could not immediately refuse, temporised until at length their troops were collected, when on the 14th of February they sent word to Major Outram to retire from their city. Major Outram, who did not suppose that they would proceed to extremities, delayed. On the 15th the residence of the British Political Agent was attacked; it was gallantly defended by 100 men for several hours; but at length, their ammunition having been expended, the British soldiers retired with a small loss to the steamers, and proceeded to join Sir Charles Napier, then at the head of about 2,700 men, at a distance of about 20 miles from the capital of the Ameers. The latter hastened at the head of 22,000 men to attack the British force. On the 17th a battle took place, in which, after a severe struggle of three hours, the Ameers were totally routed, although the British force was not one-seventh that of the Ameers. The loss of the British troops was considerable. The Ameers on the following day surrendered themselves prisoners of war, and Hyderabad was occupied by the conquerors. The capture of this important position is of immense value.

At Affghanistan anarchy continues to prevail. Akbar Khan is said to be master of Cabul. Sufter Jung has been compelled to quit Candahar, and to seek safety in flight.

The Courts-martial on the officers engaged in the proceedings at Cabul have terminated in the acquittal of all.

SOUTH AMERICA.

General Oribe, the commander of the victorious army of Buenos Ayres, has crossed the river Urnguay, and was within

three days march of Monte Video. The British merchants were preparing to leave the city and embark. This advance of Oribe is in defiance of the demand of the English and French Ambassadors.

THE PACIFIC.

The inhabitants of Tahiti and the So

ciety Islands have been converted to Christian belief, habits, and civilization, by English missionaries; while the Sand

wich Islands have been indebted for the same boon to American missionaries. On the arrival of some Roman Catholic missionaries from France, the chiefs of the latter islands would not permit them to remain. This was in 1837; and Admiral Dupetit Thouars himself admitted the right of the chiefs of the Sandwich Islands to send away missionaries, or any other persons, who disturbed the public peace.

It happened that the Queen of Tahiti, followed precisely the same conduct as the chiefs of the Sandwich Islands, She sent out of her country two French missionaries, who came to preach and to introduce religious dissension. Admiral Dupetit Thours came on purpose to Tahiti, in 1837, and exacted 2,000 piastres indemnity from the Queen for having so done. The precise aim of these mis. sionaries is clearly stated by Admiral Dumont D'Urville. "They thought," he said, "the moment arrived to make the lic church, in lieu of the doctrines of natives adopt the principles of the CathoProtestantism." This policy has for the present prevailed.

HAYTI.

This noble island, which has been the scene of so many extraordinary changes of another political revolution, which, unlike government, has been lately disturbed by those that have preceded it, has been accomplished without bloodshed. The ex-President, Jean Pierre Boyer, with thirty-two of his adherents, having sought shelter in one of her Majesty's ships, arrived at Jamaica, March 19, on board the Scylla. He had been driven to this step by the resistance offered to the means he had adopted to get rid of the opposition to his government in the national legislature. At the head of this opposition was the Senator Dumeille, the representative of the province of Aux Cayes, who on five different occasions had been forcibly expelled from the Senate Cham ber at the point of the bayonet, and on

each occasion had been triumphantly reelected by his original constituents. Un. der the apprehension of proceedings of a still more despotic and unconstitutional character, M. Dumeille addressed himself to the regiment of artillery stationed at Aux Cayes, by the whole of whom he was readily joined; and the feelings of the people were so strongly engaged in his favour by what had previously taken place, that in the course of a very few days he found himself at the head of a force of 6,000 men. With the view of demonstrating to his fellow citizens that he was not actuated by motives of personal ambition, he proposed to M. Beau

gillard, the Governor of Aux Cayes, who has been very generally regarded for the last ten or twelve years as the probable successor of Boyer in the Presidency, to declare the office vacant, and to proclaim M. Beaugillard provisionally President. At the same time there is some reason to apprehend, as those portions of the popu lation who speak the Spanish language have had but little intercourse with their fellow-citizens at the other end of the island, whose manners and habits are framed on the French model, some attempt may now be made to re-establish the political separation which formerly existed between them.

March 13. By direction of the Commissioners of Woods and Forests, several houses in the line of the new street to lead from Oxford-street to Holborn, and which is to be called "Oxford-street East," were sold by auction, in order to be immediately pulled down. The new street will be in a straight line, about 1300 feet long and 50 feet wide.

The Bishop of London has acknowledged the receipt of 50001. from an anonymous donor, "to be expended in building a church in London, as an offering to Almighty God for His Glory and the good of His Church."

Aprli 13. One of those mournful accidents occurred which have from time to timte taken place at every gunpowder manufactory. The gunpowder mills at Waltham Abbey are twelve miles distant from London, and are the property of Government. Four of the buildings, about 80 feet in length, and 28 or 30 feet in depth, have been destroyed on this occasion. The business was going on in the usual way, when about five minutes after three o'clock, from some cause unknown, an explosion took place in the more northern corning-house. A few seconds afterwards the press-house and wash-house also blew up. In a minute or two from that time the next corning-house, distant from the former about 200 yards, shared the same fate, and this in a few seconds was followed by a fourth explosion, and a second press-house and wash-house were in an instant destroyed. In the works which were first blown up, seven persons were employed, not one of whom survives. Five of them were carried over the river to a very considerable distance, and fell lifeless fragments in the marshes. One corpse was recovered from the ruins,

and one dead body was found out of the building on the side of the river. The last explosion here, occurred in 1811.

The Comet. An extraordinary lumi. nous appearance in the western horizon has excited great interest and discussion among astronomers. It was visible in so ambiguous a position, the tail alone being discernible just above the horizon, that many have been inclined to suppose it connected with the zodiacal light, which was also very brilliant at the same time. The body of the comet, however, was distinctly seen by Mr. Cooper at Nice, on the 14th March; and Mr. Herschel, in an interesting letter to the Times newspaper, has related that on the evening of the 17th he distinctly saw its nucleus, from Collingwood near Hawkhurst, in Kent; and on the next night observed, in the very central line of the train, no longer a nucleus, but a dim oval nebulaappearances only to be explained on the supposition that the comet was receding with great velocity.
