BOMBAY, AvoraT 13. • It has been with feelings of disappointment that we received the intelligence from Europe of the 10th of July. To us who have witnessed the fatal effects of over-confidence in the supreme government at Calcutta, the prevalence of the same feeling in our rulers at home is a source of increased anxiety. The supreme government at first believed that the mutiny would be suppressed with ease, that disaffection would be partial and confined to a few of the troops in the Bengal presidency. The movement might be put down by English soldiers, the contingents of our allies the protected princes, and even by native regiments remaining staunch to combat the muti neers. It was only necessary for our commander-in chief to appear before Delhi to subdue that city, and this victory being achieved the pacification of the country must necessarily follow. A small army accordingly marched towards Delhi, from the north, whilst detachments came up tore the south, small in number, far from support, and without any military base. Our movements were those of men pawing through a quiet and loyal country, from which no hostility was to be expected. Unforeseen difficulties impeded the progress of the "army of retribution," ea it was somewhat pomp ously called. Transport was not at hand, the heat was great, but above all things one was wanting, and that was artillery. The city of the Moguls which had fallen into the hands of the rebels was then discovered to be, not a mere fortress to be be sieged and taken by assault, it was • large and strong place, in which, with singular providence, we had stored for years the appliances and means of a first-clan arsenal, but which, with strange and per verscobstinacy,we had confided to native troops alone, in spite of repeated warnings respecting the danger of such • course. Delhi resisted, and thus overturning the calculations of the over-confident supreme go- vernment involved us in a series of unparalleled disasters. A small force adventured forward at Cawnpore in a cantonment was massacred ; an other force, which should never have been left where it was, consistently with military tactics, was sur rounded at Lueknow, and thus, between I and Calcutta, a barrier of rebels has been formed which impedes the advance of our men and requires all available reinforcements to break through it. The rebellion, instead of being confined to the troops of the Presidency, spread to the contingents, and at last to the population of Central India, where bands of pillagers and murderers commit the most stns. Mous crimes with impunity, set • daily example successful rebellion to the rest of the country, and like a tide without ebb, encroaches constantly upon fresh space, and threatens to swallow up all but the best defended places. The last intelligence forwarded to you was in sub stance that General Havelock had engaged the Nana Sahib several times, and re-occupied Cawnpore. The details of these engagements are full of interest. The march to Futteypoor, although attended with great fatigue and exhaustion from excessive heat, was ad mirably orderly in consequence of the excel.ent state of the Grand Trunk road. The 64th led, followed by the artillery, then the 75th Highlanders and Kith, the baggage and tents on elephants, and irregulars,. At the halting place the troops drew up in battle array, waiting for the tents, and when they arrived encamped in the order of the halt. When Colonel Tytler was ordered forward to re connoitre on the morning of the 13sh and met the enemy coming out of FuArypoor, the rebels believed they had to oppose Major Renaud's column only. Thor astonielmient at being encountered by up wards of a thousand men was excessive. The first notice of the rebel's' approach was given by the re turn of the reconnsiesante and the appearance be hind Colonel Tytler of the Sepoy cavalry at a dis tance of 1,300 yards. In an instant the men were in their places, and formed, whilst the artillery moved forward and opened. The first practice was not very good, but some saddles were emptied, and this with the swampy ground confused the cavalry in its endeavour to outflank us. Our eitirmishers deploying, the irresistible power of the Enfield rife kept the horsemen away. The guns pushed forward to closer quarters to engage the infantry on its flanks, and in doing so it was met by the artillery fire of the enemy, which opened with round shot. These our infantry charged upon and carried, driv. ing back the enemy on Futteypoor in confusion, through rice fields and swamps. The rebels never rallied, but abandoned gun after gun almost without resistance. As our force approached Futteypoor the ground became more difficult, and offered the fairest chances of successful resistance if the enemy had (liftmen to stand. A barricade of bullock flirts (hackeria) lay right Berea, the road and closed 'the passage, but as no effort was made to arrest our progress, it became evident that this barrier was merely the rebel baggage train jammed in confusion, and so locked together that two six-pounders were enclosed within it. These guns were in first-rate order, and hail never been used. The ground was here covered with plunder from Cawnpore. Dresses of men and women lay in confusion around pell-mell, with saddles, pistols, and furniture. Amongst the rev two waggons were found laden with treasure, oneof which was plundered by the men, and the second brought in by the Sikhs. The enemy did not pause to defend the streets, but fled towards Cawnpore, receiving parting shots from us on the outskirts of the town. The leader of the rebels rode a richly-ornamented elephant, who was brought down by a cannon shot. Whether or not this was Nana Sahib or an officer of less note, was impossible to ascertain. On the 114th a detachment advanced to Mitoor, which was found empty, and was burnt to the ground. Here fifteen guns had been abandoned by the enemy. The Nana, It its said, had left Bhitoor, with his family and the remnants of the rebels, and proceeded to cross the river into Gude, but a panic seized his troop., which fled, leaving their arms behind, and scattered themselves to their several homes. In this extremity the Nana determined (so writers affirm) to drown himself and his family. Such, we are assured, was the fate of the adopted son of Bajte ltaod, the lost of the Peishwas. His death in the manner described is not improbable, if we assume that he had kept the captives as a means of purchasing his own safety: ; but losing this chance, in consequence of the raging cruelty of his followers. found no course left him but to die by our hands or perish by his own. On the 22nd of July, General Nel, who had pulled forward with all speed from Alla habad with a reinforcement of 227 men 84th Regiment. reached Can npore, and on the 23rd the whole British force, with its guns, crossed the Ganges into Onde, startling merely by their presence several bodice of rebels in possession of the road to Locknow. It was ascertained. says Mr. Tucker's official bulletin from Bemires, that the garrison then was safe, and that the enemy's attacks bad lan guished in consequent* of their want of ammunition. The enemy between Lueknow and Cawnporo in estimated at 12,000 men, with 42 gun•. On the 25th of July General Havelock's force had reached Mungora, on the road to Lueknow. The melancholy state to which the unfortunate force under General Wheeler was reduced on the 26th of June may be guessed from the following Ttt - xj3 rt LONDON, THURSDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 17, 1857. letter, written on that day by aa officer on the eve of aarrendi.r : We ere in a dreadful plight hem, God only knows what is to liemouie of all of us. Our able end gallant leader, Sir Hugh Wheeler, es nue no more. He mmivod u mortal wound Mt the sally roads the day before yesterday, and was brought into the entrenchment to breathe his last amongst his own race.

Ha death has mat a 01.14:1111 now greater than ever over our (shall Imy doomed) fates We are short of men, no provisions, DO water, and hardly soy ammunition left. Now we are thinking of consulting together to capitulate to the enemy, our only and lea but ace not the tender mercies of the heathen cruel t" I send this letter by a trustworthy native servant of mine, on to Allahalad, whence it will be prated to Calcutta. I know not if it will ever reach you. However, ere it Teaches you, our fate will be decided. Oh, the wretchiansea around. After the occupation our men avenged signally the death of the unfortunate Wheeler. The rebel &pop made prisoners during the engagement were tried by drum-head court-martial, and hanged. They knew they had no mercy to expect, and their de meanour at the place of execution was cool and col lected. Could they but face death in battle with simi lar fearlessness, we should now no longer hold India. A native magistrate, against whom too many proofs existed of complicity with the rebellion,sras amongst the number of the culprits. He also exhibited the utmost 000lness, walking calmly up to the rope, and standing till he WS/ thrown off. I must not emit to tbilltiOn that whilst the ?drill under General Havelock moved up, it was followed by the steamer Berhumpooter on the Ganges, the little band of Fusiliers on board having its share in the glory of those days. At one spot, where a party was landed for wood on the left bank, a gang of in surgents, with a gun, commenced an attack, which was speedily repelled, three of the Fusiliers charging and capturing the gun. The relief of Lucknow will now, it is confidently believed, take place, General Havelock's last bul letin, affirming that that city was quite safe for the present. In the Nagpore and Samar territories, and the country of Bhopal, the disaffected population arc in arms, and although they offer little or no resistance to parties sent out against them, still they effectually pat a stop to the machinery of government. On the 28th of July a body of 1,000 insurgent Iloondelas attacked Dummow, 50 miles from Saugor. They occupied the fort there, and were attacked by de tachments from the 31st, 42nd, and 3rd, and driven off with • loss of 31 killed and 17 made prisoners. After the rout the Irregulars followed up the enemy Lod cut up several more men. A fort occu pied by 500 Boondelaa in the vicinity of Nagpore, was attacked by detachments of the 50th and 52nd, and the result was the unresisting flight of the in surgents. Further west, the occupation of Edlabad by the Hydrubod Contingent, under Major W. Orr, has kept the districts of North Serer quiet. In order, however, to overawe still further any Ito hillas or Arab plunderers from the Nizam's country, the Madras government has sent out troops to form a column at Kurnool, on the southern frontier of tho Hydrabad country, and this force, under Colonel Macleod, has been composed as follows :—lfer Majesty's 12th Lancers, one squadron from Secun derabad; 50th Madras Native Infantry, head-quarters wing; half troop of Madras Native horse Artillery. This form was set in motion towards Kurnool on the 21th of July. Iler Majesty's 71th Highlanders has been sent to Bellarv. At the same time Madras has been ordered to fur nish a contingent of regular troops for Calcutta, for which capital the following force was embarked, and sailed under the command of Colonel (now Bri gadier-General) Carthen :—The 27th Madras Native Infantry, from Venue; thc 17th Madras Native In fantry, from Madras; the Bth Madras Light Cavalry and a native troop of hone artillery, from Banga lore, with a company of Golundanze (native drivers) from the Mount (Madras). . . . . In consequence of this drain of troops, orders have been issued by Lord Harris to form three new regi ments of infantry at Masulipatam,Trichinopoly, and Venom respectively. It was such an obviously useful measure to employ Madras troops on the Ganges, that the question naturally mime. why was it not adopted before? The answer to this would involve me in too long a digression, and 1 leave the matter for your consideration, confining myself to directing your attention towards this significant fact, that no Bombay native trove have yet found their way to the vicinity of Delhi, or been employed out of the presidency. No further attempt has been made to disturb the public peace at Hydrahad (Deccan), and the Je metier who made the attack on the residency, having a price put on his head,was captured and brought in. Affairs were by no means so satisfactory in the South Mahratta country, and the Bombay govern ment has been forced to adopt vigorous measures to keep the Concan quiet. I informed you in my last letter that the Moulvie, or chief print, of the can tonment mosque at l'oonah, had been arrested on the discovery that he was in treasonable correspon dence with the Cazee or chief Mussulman priest of Belgaum. The plot thus secretly hatched and for tunately discovered had moat extensive ramifications. A day had been fixed for a general rising at Poonah, and similar movements were designed to be carried out at Belgaum, and no doubt also at Setters, Kola , pore, Sawunt-Warre, and Dharwar. At Poonah, the Intended massacre being checked, most vigorous measures were taken. All available artillery from Bombay was brought there, and the cantonment bazaar disarmed. This duty was omitted in the town only because it was difficult to do so without declaring the country in a state of siege. Measures were also taken at Belgaum. The treasure and European families were moved into the fort, and British artillery posted so as to prevent any effec taal resistance in case of a rising. At Sattara pre parations were also made : a company of European artillery marched from Poonah,and replaced a troop of native gunners,who were moved to l'oonah, even tually to he sent to Aden. A squadron of ILNI.'s 14th Lancers was also added to the force, which, with one company of the 3rd Bombay Europeans, made every thing secure. At the same time, the Ranee of batters and her adopted son, the ex-rajah, were removed to Bombay, and kept in Butcher's Island. Their arrest was effected on the morning of the 6th instant with the utmost seemly and despatch. A detachment of artillery with two guns, under Lieut. Reid, and parties from the 3rd Bombay Europeans, her Majesty's 14th Light Dragoons, the 22nd Native Infantry, and Mahratta Horse, under Colonel Mal colm, accompanied by Mr. Rose, the commissioner, and his assistants, marched into the city of Sattara before daylight, and surrounded the palace, placing the guns in position in front. Phaetons were in readiness to remove the royal family, which was taken by surprise when ordered fur instant departure. By eight o'clock the Ranee and Rajah were on their way to Foolish, under an escort of the 14th Light Dragoons, in charge of Dr. Imlach. This cleverly managed affair, and the execution of six Mussulmans,guilty of rebellion and murder, at l'underpoor, by being blown from guns, on the nth of August, instilled a wholesome terror into the disaffected. Unfortunately less stringent measures were taken at Colapore, where, on the evening of the 31st of July, a mutiny broke out among the men of the 27th Bombay Native Infantry. This regi eient,the2Bthoit Be4aum,and the29th, at Dharwar, were raised in the South Mahratta country in 1816, and injudiciously kept in garrison where they were embodied. On the evening of the 31st of July about 300 of the 27th broke out into open mutiny in the canton ments outside Colapore, and sacked the mess-room, where they fortunately found no officers to massacre. Whether the alarm had been given in sufficient time to enable the latter to fly I cannot say distinctly, but that such was the case is probable, for their junior officers were discovered after the affair mur dered, in a temple between Colapore and canton ments. I.ientenant Davidson, of the engineers, exe cutive officer of his department, most fortunately escaped pursuit by coming a nulls, which was im passable when the mutineers came up. The Sepoys, chiefly M ussulmans and Pootbeas (B rahminy),m arched down upon Colapore, and halted for the night before the Achtwar and Mungulwar gates, which had been closed, as usual, for the night. Their intention was to enter the city in the morning, and obtain the co-operation of the townspeople. The rajah, however, knew too well that his interest lay in remaining staunch, and he assisted Colonel Maughan, com mandant of the Colapore force, in preserving order. Taking with him the remnant of the 27th, some Colapore infantry, English cavalry, and Mahratta horse, Colonel Maughan, assisted by Captain Snyder, of the and Bombay Native Grenadiers, second in command of the Colapore local infantry, marched round by the jetty bridge to the Mungulwar gate, and tlwre encountered the mutineers, who made no stand. A small party of about fifty took refuge in a narrow suburban street where they were not at tacked ; Colonel Maughan, knowing they could not escape, preferred leaving a detachment to watch them, and marched back to cantonments, where he restored order. On the next morning the mutineers justified the colonel's foresight by surrendering at discretion, declaring their contrition and regret. The result of this mutiny was the plunder of the trea sures and the loss of three officers killed. The fugi tive mutineers fled in the direction of Belgaum by the Kagul road, hoping that a rising concerted there by lep ers from Kolapore had been suc ',nonfat and"' not knowing 'that those letters had been intercepted. The failure of this correspondence saved Belgaum, from which imminent danger was averted chiefly by the excel , lent arrangements of Mr. Selori Carr, through whose activity the correspondence between the Moulvie of Poonah and the Cares of Belgaum was discovered. Still it was evident that the 28th and 29th were not to be trusted, and accordingly it was resolved to despatch troops in this direction. Colonel Legrand Jacob, of the 27th (who has never yet seen his regi ment), was sent in chief command of the disaffected district. There were already at Belgaum a detach ment of the 3rd Earopeans,the depot of H.M.'s 61ili, and European Artillery. One wing of the 2nd Europeans, just arrived from Kurrachee, left for Goa and Vixiadroog, and on the 9th a company of H.:ll.'s 33rd, just arrived from the Mauritius, and a com pany of the 86th, left for Runnagherry. Steamers were sent to take the ladies and treasure from the latter place, as well as from Belgaum, Kolapore, and Dharwar. Hopes are now entertained that the ar rival of English troops, not expected in such a season as this, will put an effectual stop to all future rebellious or mutinous movements in the South Mahratta country. On the 13th, a Jet chief, named Shah Mull, was attacked and routed, with a loss of 600 men, the Shah himself remaining on the ground. The most active measures have been taken at Meerut to strengthen the place, which is now surrounded with earthworks. The latest news we have received from Delhi de scribes the besieging force as hearty,andahle to hold is ground until the arrival of reinforcements. Great activity characterises the proceedings of Sir John Lawrence in the Punjaub. When the re bellion first broke out, four augmentation companies of infantry were prepared, from which it has been determined that four new regiments should be formed. These are to be embodied immediately, and they will no doubt soon be in a fit state for action. The depots are to be at the stations of Umballa, Phillour (Loodhiana), Meehan Jhelum, Peshawar Kohat , and Ilehra Ismail Khan. All future trouble from mutinous Sepoys is ended by the disarmament of the 39th Bengal Native In fantry at Behr& Ismail Khan (on the Indus) and the capture of most of the Peshawar and Sealkote rebels. The Anal rout of the 65th men who endeavoured to mike their way out of the l'unjauli bills was pro duced by the assistance of the chiefs on the borders of Cashmere. The rebels attempted to proceed by way of Khogun and Koubar into Cashmere, having failed in obtaining from the chiefs permission to pass unmolested. They were encountered by the Synds of Khogun and people of Koubar, beaten, and dispersed. Thirty-two Sepoys sent in after the en gagement were received by Major Beecher, com mandant in Benue, and executed. Brigadier-Generi;l Nicholson, whom we had left watching the Sealkote mutineers at the lrimmoo Ghent, on the Raver, after their first defeat, at tacked them a second time moat successfully on the 16th of July. The remnants of the Sealkote mutineers found their way into Cashmere, and were there disarmed, and sent in by the authorities of Ghoolab Singh at Juarouta. Sixty-eight of them, belonging to the 9th Cavalry and 46th N. 1., were immediately exe cuted by order of Lieut. .11'Nfahon, the assistant commissioner, who marched some days before from Sealkote with 300 new levies. An insurrectionary movement in Swat, near Pc shnwur, was put down by the activity of our autho rities. The Lahore bulletin of the 28th July gives the only account of this affair u follows: A feoatival Moulvie from Swat had moved down and set up his @tended in the notorious village of Niramode ' on the eaten, bootie of Easufraie, where with a munber of his follower. he we attached on the 21st ingant by detach mente from the Mountain Train Battery from Wild's and Vaugtames Corp. of Pookaub Intone, and some police hone. The village we carried by smelt after a stout resastanee, 55 of the enemy were killed, and many wounded. The Moulvie contrived to make himself searee early in the fight, having apparently on a neater lie t• of them no relish for the glories of martyrdom. The heat endured by oar troops during this short expe dition is reported to have been execeive, and nine Sepoys (aid of 10 airsick down) were killed by Coup de Bard. The Lahore Bulletin of the 29th says: At 111.111.1112 Subsdar Ilej. or liabur Khan, of the 69th N. 1., has been eousiet,4 before e general court martial of mutinous and seditnota conduct, end executed by being blown away from a gun, in the presence of all the tronpa paraded for the purpoec;come others of this regiment are to be brought to trial. end great praise is due In Major C. Chamberlain, wbo, aided by ,oimo of hie excellent native officers (in eapecial Meer thicket Allq Wurdee Maier), bee succeeded in dis ooverinr the be.. treachery meditated by these miscreants end esmbli•bing it by proof. One hundred and twenty-one of the Sealkom mutineer., brought In from the Jmroutith Mama, hays been summarily executed. Perfect order has been restored at Sealkote. Brigadier Brind, who, it seems, was shot at by hi own servant, is dead of his wound. This man was a llindoo, and so it appears that ths Rev. Mr. Hunter and his family were killed by Hindoos, Mr. Montgomery issued orders by which all places held by Ilindoos under government were to be taken from them and given to deserving Punjaubees. BOMBAY, Averse 13. The weakness of trusting to men who are actuated apparently by no motives which Europeans can un derstand has been curiously exemplified by an out break at Ilinapore. Amongst the few regiments of Bengal Native Infantry which had hitherto remained quiescent were the 7th, Bth, and 40th. Owing, no doubt, to the presence of her Majesty's 10th Regi ment of Infantry and a battery of artillery manned by Europeans, these regiments maintained their loyalty so long as no suspicions were shown as to their intentions. Like many other bodies of Sepoys, they served on more than one occasion in putting down rebellious movements; and no fears were conceived regarding them, when strong bodies of Europeans were in their rear coming up from Calcutta, and in their front mov ing towards Cawnpore. This was the very time, however, which the seloys took to rebel, pushed to it unfortunately by injudicious measures adopted by the authonties. Suspicions being en tertained of their fidelity, the regiments, instead of being disarmed, were ordered to surrender their percuuion cape on the '24th of July. They refused to obey, and their disobedience was not punished. They were allowed to remain in a state of semi mutiny for several hours, during which General Lloyd, instead of taking means to enforce obedience, is described u having gone on board a vessel in the Ganges with several other officers. Whether this b e true or false, as I have not present means of ascertaining, there is no doubt that the semis re- I 'I 1 . • s2)r - F - 177 IS7. 4 •A:s •- t`v•A/ • SSalltiXa (Stamped ld. Additional.) [TWOPENCE. r °mined unmolested during the day, when, finding that they were left to their own will, they formed up, and marched quietly out of Dinapore, reached the Grand Trunk road,and cut off the communication between Calcutta and Benares. They marched south ward along the Sone, and on their way cut down the telegraphic wires. They calculated that they should be able to cross the river and make their way up to Benares, which being weakly garrisoned they might hope to surprise. Fortunately the river was too much swollen to give them a passage, and the delay may render active measures against them suc cessful. General Lloyd, having let them go, started in pursuit with the 10th and a battery of artillery. There are reports of an engagement, but they require confirmation. Here, again, is a repetition of the old disaster. Benares and Allahabad, denuded of troops to furnish General Havelock's columns, have scarcely a hundred men each to defend themselves from the attacks of the disaffected round them, and but for the providential swelling of a river, they would have to endure the attacks of three thousand men fully armed, a foolish persuasion of their loyalty having prevented our authorities from taking measures long since to deprive these men of their weapons. It cannot be said that an English regiment and a bat tery of artillery were insufficient for this purpose when we see how similar operations were performed in the Punjaub. We have not been without our panic at Bombay. Oa the Mossulman festival of the Backrest Eed families retreated to ships in harbour, and other symptomsof trepidation were manifested, but nothing came of it, and the arrival of her Majesty's 33rd and a battery of European artillery has made everything secure. The Bazaar gate of the Fort has been closed " for necessary repairs," and the most timorous are now quite re-assured, even with respect to the ap proaching Nlahomrnedan feast of Mohurrem, which occurs on the 23th inst. _ _ Three new batteries of artillery are ordered to be formed of Europeans at Poonah, Ahmednuggur, and Kumehee. The Persian force will be here in a few days. One regiment of Bombay Native Infantry will garrison karrack,and the rest of oar possessions in the territory of the Shah are now tobe abandoned. In the meanwhile our affairs in l'ersia are likely to suffer most ma terially from the effects of the mutiny in India. Mr. Murray, who left Bagdad on the 10th of June with his suite for Teheran, is said to put but little faith in the assurances of the Shah, that the treaty shall be observed. The conduct of that prince has not been free from suspicion, with regard to Herat; and it is reported that his nephew has secret orders to keep the city, which was the caused the war. In the treatment to which the Affghans of llerat were subjected we have a fair example of Oriental dealings. The Affshans surrendered Herat on condition that their lives and property should be spared. Two of them were deprived of life on the road to Teheran ; the third, Shazade Youssuf, reached the capital in safety; but on the very day when the treaty of I'aris reached Teheran, Youssuf was beheaded by order of the Shah. Such animosity as the people of the Persian terri tories are capable of was dreaded for our expedition to the Caspian, and accordingly it has been aban doned for the present. The 4th ltegiment, from the Cape of Good Hope, is shortly ekpeeted here. The Hon. J. G. Lumsden, member of Council here, has resigned in consequence of ill-health, and returns to Europe by this m.ul. He is succeeded by Mr. Reeves. Colonel Jacob, of the Scinde Horse, is to have chief command of operations in the I leccan. The latest news from Calcutta is to be found in the following extracts : The new steamer Nemesia was lately launched by the Honourable Company, affording a good opportunity to the go vernment of sending a larger number of men than their troop boat. can convey to Allababal. She has been fitted out and leavee in tow of the G. S. N. Company's ate:toter Mirsapore, and will, with the I. G. S. N.

BOMBAY, AVG. 7. The most important feature of public occurrences of late is a very humiliating one u faros the Bombay army is concerned, and we can no longer say that all our native infantry regiments are loyal. A portion of the '27th Native Infantry mutinied at Colapore, on the night of the 31st, on which the Mahomme dans at l'oonah end Belgaum were to have risen,and murdered all Europeans, it was said, it being the ere of the Buckree F-ed At those two stations the plot wu discovered, and the leaders seized. Colapore, as you know, is between the two places, and it is supposed that the people, on the 27th, were not aware that the movement would miscarry, and therefore played their part out. The officers got warning, and took refuge with the political superintendent, and the local corps remained staunch. We have not yet got all the rights of the story, hut there must have been some must shameful mismanagement, for there were only 160 mutineers, no native officers, and only three havildars ; and yet, after holding out for a day, they got clean away with their arms and 40,000nipees out of the military chest. The rest of the regiment seem not to have gone against them at all, so either they arc utterly untrustworthy or their office's, a parcel of boys. ' are not worth their salt. Bat the worst feature of the case is, that the muti neers are not Purdeysees (Hindustanees), at all events not all ; for 23 were afterwards taken pri soners, and found to be Marathees from the neigh bouring districts. llth.—Matters in the north-west, so far as we can learn, for we hear very little, continue very much in stalls quo. Here, in the Bombay Presidency, they are in by no means a satisfactory state. Three officers of the 27th Native Infantry are missing since the mutiny on the 31st alt., and I rather fear (from a telegraphic message) that affairs are taking an ugly turn in the Southern Mahratta country : for some days they were very uneasy about the 28th Native Infantry at Dhurwar, but it seems to be all right. Troops were to have been sent from Beffary. Belgaum has to take care of 400 helpless women and children of her Majesty's 67th, now with Havelock at Cawnpoor, in addition to taking care of itself, so that General Lester has an anxious and responsible divisional command. At Shalupoor they are by no means sure of the Madras Cavalry Corps; but last accounts say that the temper and demeanour of all the troops stationed there is to all appearance good. The Buckree Eed passed off quietly enough in Bombay, and I trust so will the 'reboot ; the 6,000 adult Musulmans know that government is pre pared for them. The mortar on the ramparts of Fort George has the range of the Jumma Musjid, and a few 56-pounder guns at point blank range would make some ugly holes in the native town and its 600,000 inhabitants, although we have so few Europeans-400 of her Majesty's 33rd from the Isle of France, and 60 Royal Artillerymen. In spite of the severity of the monsoon, we have been despatching steamers to land European de tachments on the coast to the southward, at points hitherto considered unapproachable at this season. They have made one trip successfully; their return from the second trip is anxiously looked for. Lord Elphinstone is worn to a thread paper with work and anxiety. Ile has shown very great energy throughout this emergency. The Madras army appears to be behaving beauti fully ; and we feel it to be a great humiliation that one regiment of the Bombay army should have for . gotten itself. I fancy in the Madras N.J. corps you have not above a very few Pardeysees, foreignirs (i. c. ilindustanees) ; we lime between 14,000 and 15 , 000 . • • • • • • • • AUGUST 15. P.B.—The mail has been delayed till to-day. The additional news to that which 1 have already given you is, that dear Havelock has gained yet another victory within 16 miles of Lucknow, taking some more guns; so that he is having to tight every inch of his way. The 7th, Bth, and 40th Native Infantry have mutined at l)inapere, and General Lloyd, though he had her Majesty's 10th, and details of Europeans, seems to have allowed them to get away, and him self went on board a steamer. Nothing new at Delhi. An emissary from Sara poor in Berar,was taken up by some Hindustan men of our 29th Native Infantry, in the lines, and to be blown away from a guu to-day, at Belgaum ; also another Mussulman conspirator. It is a remarkable thing that in the 27th, our only mutinous corps, there are fewer Purdeysees than in any regiment in the service—only 143. My corps, the 6th, has 411, lam sorry to say. From what I have just heard Havelock seems to have fallen back upon the Ganges, it is supposed to secure all the guns he has captured, and which he cannot take on with him. The enemy, moreover, are frightfully strong, and, of course, the Dioapore revolt will add to their numbers. The Cawaporr manaere has cut a great emit over us all-88 officers, 70 ladies, 199 soldiers, all the wives and families of her Majesty's 32nd, all the Christian merchants and pensioners and their families. Telegraphic communication is cut off between Calcutta and Allahabad. The feeling at present is decidedly not "cocky," and the reinforce ments are very anxiously looked for. Lucknow is all right. CAWNPORE. The following extract is from a letter dated Cawnpore, the 111th of July, by an racer of the let Madre Fusiliers . "On Thursday we marched against the enemy. about 6,000 stream who were in position about five mile. from Cawspore, end this was the hardest day's work we ever had. They had six or eight gun*, in two separate batteries. We advanced straight against them, and they poured grape and round shot into as, like so many hailstones, yet our loss was not very great. We be down and then advanced against their first battery, which vas taken in fine etyle. I went off with a small party (about forty . men) to the right flank, where the cavalry were threatening us, and some of their infantry had a strong position. We kept them at a distance with our rake, and once, when some of the cavalry (about 600) came down upon us, we funned equate, and they did not dare conic near us. This elicited great applause from the general and everybody My party then joined the main column, and we now advanced against the other battery. When we came within range, down poured the round shot and grape. We were ordered to lie down, bat the scoundrels had got their distance so well that several were wounded. Six men of her Mejesty's 64th Regiment were killed, and poor Captain Curried the 84th, severely wounded by a round shot. We had several men wounded. I had a bullet on my topie (felt hat), which provident ially glanced off, and Cupten Itaiks had • potion of his sword-hilt carried away. Well, fancy! when they saw us down again they thought we w ere &fetid to advance; so they sounded the advance, and then the double. The Generel (Havelock) now gave his order—' Rise up! advance ' The whole line gave a sheer—sorb a cheer ! it must have made the villains tremble frost Lead to foot— and advanced in line against their battery, under a heavy cross fire, which they kept up very well, but did not do us much damage, as they fired so high. They evacuated their battery and fled in every direction. We fired into them till they were out of range, and then rushed tip the bill, and found, to our joy, Cawnpore about ball a mile to front. "We bivouacked on the rising ground fur the night. You should have heard the cheer we gave as our gallant com mander General Havelock, rode down the lines ; it wite in deed a tine sight. He on every erasion praises our men, and is going to mole a special report of us to the Com mander-in-Chief. Only fancy our horror oa hearing that the same night we gave them such a booing at Fut teypore, they killed or rather muorryeti, all the ladies whom they hitherto had spared in Cavnipore (except five or six who were emacealed by their native servants). Mire Wheeler, the daughter of Sir H. Wheeler, they say, killed five of these fiends with a revolver before they coul d get near her. What an heroic spirit she must bare had. The sight of the place where these poor ladies were murdered is indeed awful. Long trews of her—dresses covered with blood—here and there a workbox or bonnet." Extract of letter, dated July 17th: " Thi. force in eight days has marched 126 mile., f night - four action., and taken twenty-four guns, light and heavy, and that too in the month of July In India. "We nurchet.: on the 16th, and then learned that the enemy had come out from Cawnpore to make their last stand at the Islam where the grand trunk rout forks to Cawn pore end Delhi; that they had there entrenched themselves in a very strong petition, with heavy guns in front and fluke, to sweep the road, and that all the force, upward. of 4,000 men, had turned out to make their last stud. So it was determined to try and turn their flunk. Accord ingly we struck off the road at an angle, and then turned down towards them again. We hi,e nwked under the trees, and started at xj p.m. The heat was fearful. Many men dropped from the effects of the sun. At last the enemy caught sight, and opened a very heavy and well directed fire on no, which we had to pass till we got to the turning point. Then we moved down in line uponthem, and opened fire on their guns, ehich were in a very strong poet- Goo in • village. R e sileneed two with our artillt ry ; but all we could do we couldn't get at the third heavy gun, it was so well masked. The 78th were ordered to charge and take the gun. I never maw anything so fine. The men went on, with sloped arms, like a wall ; till within a hundred yards not a shot was fired. At the word Charge,' they broke just like an eager pink of hounds, and the village was taken in an instant. I was up almost as soon as they, and one man told rue, with a grin, be had just killed three DIM out of one house. The enemy were now in retreat, for we had turned their puition, but the fight wassail hard, for their cavalry came round down upon our rear, and the guns had to be halted and opened on them. After that we got so fa forward towards Cawnpore that, without knowing it, one of their heavy guns in position was passed, and they managed to aloe it round and open fire on our rear. So we had to turn, and go back and take it. This was done by the 64th. In Met it was, in point of heavy fire and fatigue, a very hard tight, but the end wu that we took eight gun. In all, end utterly routed the enemy, who evacuated Cawnpnre during the night, and blew up the arsenal and magazine. We bivouacked on the field, with little bed and supper, and marched into Camila - ire this morn ing, where we hold a position—the barracks. AU the force is knocked up, and must rest a day. "Alas, alas I all the women and children were murdered by these devils yesterday, when they fmnd the day going against them. 'Their bodies were thrown into the Ganges." THE MADRAS ARMY. A letter which has been received by Messrs.

Setting aside the amount of the subscription (which is ex tremely handsome coneidering the means of the subscribers, made, too, at a time when the men are receiving compensa tion from government on account of the exceeeive dearness of grain and provisions of all kinds). the very fact of this offering having been spontaneously made by this email de. tachtuent at en out-of-the-way and remote station, speaks volumes for the generous, charitable, and benevolent spirit actuating the subscriber. It proves that there exist, in the Madre. army a feeling which revolts at the actions and unheard-of atrocities committed by the Bengal mutineers.
