Although there is some cause to reserve implicit credence in

Nana Sahib's death, the intelligence from India continues to be most satisfactory. It will be for the manifest interest of Jung Bahadoor, who has gained in territory by his alliance with the British, that the rebel leader of whom he was to dispose should be already disposed of, and the report that Nana Sahib has saved his executioners trouble by dying of fever, or poison, or some other unwarlike death, is a piece of good luck likely to have been suggested by the hopes of Jung Bahadoor's friends, through whom the report comes. The plan of dividing the fund available for public works betefeen the several presidencies, to which: we laded in a recent number, has beet¢ spontaneously adopted, we believe, by the CsOutta Government; awl the works will be con,- ducted. with an eye to the most immediate improvement of Indiai, her resources, and outlets. For instance, the great high war of the Godavery will be improved, either by works and by the remission of British tolls, or by buying up the tolls of native chiefs.
