The opinion which we have always maintained hat the disastrous occurrences at Cabul (and now tGhuznee, the garrison of which place is described «s having in March suffered the same fate as the roopsof Cabul in January, the soldiers being mas- sacred by the Ghazees, or dispersed, and the offi- ers being prisoners for the sake of the ransom), are to be ascribed to the want of efficient military ar- rangements and proper precaution, and not to the nowess of the Afighans, has been confirmed by the publication of several orders in Council. ‘These orders were published on the receipt of the news of the fall of Ghuznee, and are as follows :— “ The Governor-General in council has directed that the Commander-in-Chief will submit the con- duct of Lieut.-Colonel Palmer, in surrendering the citadel of Ghuznee, to the judgment of a court-mar- tial, at the earliest period at which such court can be duly assembled. ¢ i “The Governor-General in council has already (on the 28th of January last) directed that a full mi- litary inquiry shall be made into all the circum- stances {connected with the direction and conduct of the troops at Cabul at the earliest period at which such an inquiry may be practicable. _ “The Governor-General in council has now di- rected that the conduct of Major-General Elphin stone in Afighanistan shall be sivmiited to the judg- ment of a court-martial, at the earliest period at which such court-martial canbe duly assembled. The Governor-General in. council will further direct that a full inquiry shall likewise be made into the conduct of all the political functionaries employ- ed at Cabul, at the earliest possible period after he shall be in ‘ssion of certain material documents, of which he has already ordered the immediate transmission to Government. i a order of the Right Hon. the Governor Gene- ral of India in council. ‘6 Mappock, “* Secretary to the Government of India.” The fate of Afghanistan forms now a curious problem. Schah jah, who by temporizing and truckling to his enemies, and by many other ma- neuvres available pmonest the Aflghans, had con- trived to secure to himself a precarious existence in the Bala Hissar, at Cabul, has at length, as it is now stated, been murdered. His sons have, as it appears, taken different diflerent parties, one or two being favorable to the British alliance, while two or three are opposed to Various factions are described as at present contending forthe lion’s share of influence and power, and general confu- sion, uproar, and bloodshed prevail. in Cabul.— Schah Kamram, of Herat, nephew of Schah Soo- jah, after a long contest with his Vizier, Yar Ma- homed, is also stated tobe dead ; so that Afighan- istan, from the frontiers of Persia to the mountains west of the Indus, may be regarded as in perfect anarchy. ee . The news of the death of Schah Saget is con- firmed by the “Agra Ukhbar” of the 28d ultimo. Asan event it will produce the result of liberatin; the honorable company from an alliance calculat to produce but little benefit. Rumor in India as- serts that the present chiefs at Cabul are disposed to surrender their prisoners, and to make terms with the Indian government. When the aversion of the Hindoo Sepoys to cross the Indus, when their dislike to fight with the Affhans there, when the poverty of the Affghan country and its smal] rapa- ciousaed unruly population, when the repeated cry for more European soldiers, and above all, when the great drain on the treasury which the war pro- duces, are taken inte consideration, it may be pre- sumed that the councils of the empire will recom- mend an arrangement with the Afighans ; particu- larly when the British victories have secured the mountain passes, which constitutes the gates to In- dia, and over which our future care must be to ex- ercise a rigid control. _In the mean time Lord Ellenborough, accompa- nied by two or three Secretaries, had set out from Calcutta to the upper provinces of Bengal. His ob- ect in this journey is stated to be two-fold—first, to bs enabled to communicate without delay with the generals of the army west of the Indus, and the offi- cers commissioned with the management of those provinces; and next, to introduce some reforms there. His Lordship, whose decision and prompti- tude are highly praised,? has it is eceitheregnind that the commander-in-chief of the army should quit his cool retreats at Simla in order to join him at a more central position. The want of vigour, which was much felt from the beginning of November last, ‘when the Cabul insurrection broke torth, for Lord Auckland hesitated to compromise his sue- cessor by any active measures, is no longer com- plained of. Regret is, however, expressed that Lord falenborough ad not come out via Egypt, since the parks oT nite Son ‘yattrary; Wouter ha’ en energy and activity to every proceeding, and the unfortunate delays and doubts which paralyzed everything 7during four moaths, would have been avoided. Ghuznee would not, it is supposed, have fallen, neither would Colonel Wilde have been forced to retreat at the Khyber, nor General England been repulsed at Kojuck. Notwithstanding the activity of the measures now carried on in Afighanistan, it is stated that his Lord- ship was at the departure of the mail waiting for the resolution that may be adopted in London rela- tive to ulterior proceedings, which resolution would, it was expected, be such as to confirm fully the mea- sures already adopted. The great point insisted upon by the journals of India was the inexpediency of forming any treaties with the leaders at Cabu and Candahar, Ghuznee, kc. There is, it seems, no longer any monarch torule the country, and they argue that}it cannot be useful to us to attempt te force any one of Schah Soojah’s or Schah Zeeman’: sons on the whole nation. All there. is disorgani tion, and if the hatred of some religious enthusiast. to the Kaffirs, and the love of plunder of all, did not unite them in attacking the British troops, there would be, it is said, a general civil war. Affghan- istan may, therefore, be said to be in a great mea sure at the merey of Lord Ellenborough, whose principal difficulty will be how to settle with its dis- united rulers. i The determination of Lord Ellenborongh to re- ward military merit is evidenced by his appoint- ing five officers sistnguited for late exploits to the grade of honorary aides-de-camp to the governor general ; the cancelling of appointments conferrec on inexperienced youths, and the naming to them of men having professional claims ; the creation of 9 native aide-de-camp, and the bestowal of that rank on a deserving soldier of the local cavalry, had gain- ed for the new governor general very high opinions among the troops. ao f In the interior of Indiageneral basin bated Aa ha except{that in Bundelkhund,fa movement had taken place. The Governor of the Madras presidency had published stringent orders respecting the late ‘insu- ordinate proceedings of some native troops at Se- cunderabad. Subserip§ons to a considerable amount had beeg gntered into all over the country in favor of the lows and orphans (unprovided for by the regulations of the government) of those who fel’ during the recent disasters at Cabul.

The cholera has commited frightful ravages at Kurachee. Her Majesty's 22d Regiment had losi 93 men in six weeks upto the 24th of April. The ship Harriet, bound for London, took fire and blew up atCaleutta. There is a rumor of Lord Ellenbo: rough’s intention to reduce the great salaries of the higher branches of the civil servants, particular- lyin Bengal.

Markets, Lowpon Moxey Maxxer, June 18.—A marked sensation was produced in the city this morning by intelligence that the ghiy table firm of Briggs, Thurburn & Co. had suspended their payments. The immediate cause of this unfortunate event is understood to be the continued ab- sence of returns from Calcutta for advances made upon eonsignments, and of remittances to meet draughts oS the house. This firm was gaschaasney merely, and had no speculation on its own account, so that a moderate re- turn to them of their assets will enable them to cover all their engagements. Messrs. Briggs, Thurburn and Co., were the agents of the Agra Bank, and it will be satisfac tory to the parties bolaieg sae bills of that bank to know that the funds and agency have been transferred toMessrs. Coutts and Co. We further learn that the interests of Messrs. Briggs and Co. of Alexandria, are unaffected by this event, and that they will only have to arrange for a froth agency in London. fi The business transacted Saegien eA in foreign pea pe wasupon a very small scale, offering undoubted proof of the general contraction of mercantile affairs at the pro- sent moment. The rates did not ty: from those current on Tuesday last ; they still leave a little margia for the influx ofgold to England from the Continent. This con- tinued flatness of trade seems to cause ® goo deal of an- noyance to all classes of persons depending upon com- merce, or upon manufacturing industry, and we find few of them now bold enough to predict a speedy return of activity. In fact we have had such a succession of bres intments for the last two or three years, that peop Rave bepome, quite disheartened and desponding in regard to future prospects. It is thought a great advan’ if prices of goods can be kept from falling further, al- though the actual rates are, in many instances, ruinous to the folders 3 an advance in price seems to be hardly thougkt of.

Liverroor Cortos Manxet, June 16.—To-day there been a fair demand for Cotton, and the sales agount to 4000 bags, including 500 Americad on speculation and 400 for export. The market is rather better in feeling, but prices are without change. Tuesday, June 17.—he business done in the Cotton market this week has been only to a very moderate ex- tent, the sales having proved smaller than was anticipated. Only 20,990 bags have been disposed of, and of this quan- tity speculators have taken $500 American, and exporters merican and 200 Surrt. The operations of the trade have been ver limited, their purchases not amounting to much above one-half of their average weekly consump- tion. The Yarn and Goods market last Tuasday was very dull, which, together with the purchases of the trade hov- ing been rather large for several werys past, may account for their supineness during the past week. The market has been freely supplied, and a decline of jd per Ib has been submitted to for American description. Brazil, Egyptian, East India, &c., are without alteration in price. i import of the week amounts to 5170 brgs. To-day there has been onlp a moderate demand, and the sales amount to about 5000 bags. Prices are without fur. ther alteration. Liverroot Cotrox Marner, June 17.—Hardly any one as taken place in the market during the week, nor has any new feature presented itself. The advices from Manchester on Tuesday were unfavorable, but on the other hand those from the United St are considered favorable, so that holders of Cotton have not been acted upon by the continued complaints from the manufacturing distri nor have prices suffered in consequence. Daily, acertain demand on speculation and for export has come in aid of asmall one from the trade, and rendered the tot sales not inconsiderable. Doubts exist on the mind: many as to the jproductiveness of the harvest, notwith- standing the present fine weather, but the state of the mo- ney market indicates confidence, and this, with the in- creased consumption of Cottom during the year cam hard. ly do otherwise (under the certainty that the growth of 1841-42°will not reach 1,700,000 bales, and this is the high- est estimate by the last packet) than bring about not only some advance in price, but ageneral revival of trade at no very distant period. Brazils continue without alteration. Egyptians are unsteady in price, and difficult of sale. Su- rats are in fair request at our previous quotations. Barley and In.

Added Manchester seems not profitable, the manufacturing population continues depressed, so that in spite of the pre- sent lowness of the price of Cotton, and the evident in- creasing consumption of the article, as well as the daily transac’ on ar cox which, though not large, are constant, there is still (whilst at the same time every one feels confident as to the security of investment at the pre- sent rates) a want of elasticity in trade generally, and this reacts naturally upon Cotton.
