EAST INDIA SHIPPING.
The wind, which has long blown from the north and east, has this week changed to the west, and a consi- derable number of vessels has already arrived: but in consequence of the culpable conduct of some of the commarders in not landing their packets al letters, our intelligence from India is still very imperfect. This observation applies particularly to Bombay, from which Presidency no complete list of shipping has been received for several months. Letters by the Lady Feversham, which might have been in town on Thurs- day, are not yet delivered.
