The Overland Mail.


The usual Extraordinary Express, in anticlpa-
tlon OF the Overland Mail from india, reached
the Office OF the Morning Herald on Friday morn
ing, December 9Th. The dates are-Bombay, No
tember 3Oh. The state of affairs in the Pnnjaub
had not improved. The government had been con-
Quoted by the Rance, or Queen Mother, assisted by
Lalla Singh, the Commander Of the Forces, Gooh-
lab Singh not having sgnifed his assent to the ar
rangement which was to precede his elevation to
the Vizlership. Meanwhile he continued to reside
in his mountain fort at Jumoo. The feast OF the
Dusserah, during which disturbances had been ex,
have been anticipated. It is curious fact llustra,
tive of the weakness of the present government OF
Lahore, that steps had been taken to punish the
murderers of Jewahlr Singh. The belief that Pc.
Jewahlr Singh had gained ground; but the rumor
of his assassination had not been confirmed The
Governor General, Sir Henry Hardinge, arrived at
Agra on the 10Th Of October, four days before ne
was expected, having travelled with unexampled
speed from Calcutta He was expected to leave that
station for Delhi, where he had appointed the Com
mander-ln-Chlef to meet HIM on the 18th. The
utmost secrecy had been observed as TO the
ultimate Intentions OF the Government with
regard TO Lahore. Looking, however, at the
great preparations which have been made,
it is far from improbable that hostIties will
ere long be commenced for the purpose of coercing
the Sikh soldiery, whose rapacious and insubordl-
nate conduct had rendered all attempts to establish
anything like a permanent government abortlve. 1t
seems impossible, indeed, that this banditti should
be permitted to convulse the frontier any longer.
The news from Scinde is unimportant. Although
sickness had rather increased at Shirkapo0r and
Shahpoor the troops stationed in the lower districts
of the country were comparatively healthy.

ton to the enemy from 1.-THE British magazine, by
the Lahore Vakee, is said to have been discovered,
and to have excited strong sensation. This act
of per6dy had been countenanced by the Lahore
Government From Southern Maratta, beyond the
execution Of the celebrated robber, Soobanah Nick
um tthere is nothing to record. The Nizam's do
minions were in more than their accustomed con-
fusion. Our latest accounts from China are Of the
3Oth September, but they bring no news OF the
slightest importance. Trade, both at Chusan and
Victoria, was extremely dull. The expedition
which had been dispatched to chastise the pirates of
iect, had returned to Hong Kong. The treaty for
the cession of Laboan had been ratified.
