The Joudpore Legion was too strong for him—hence the reverse. Intelligence has also been received from Joudpore of the death of Captain Monck Mason, political agent at that place.

The Bombay nmes, of Oct. 3, mays : In our last summary we gave news from Delhi to the 9rd September, when the siege train was daily expected in camp. It arrived on the 3th Septem ber, and active preparations were immediately made to commence offensive operations. Several batteries, armed with heavy gnus, were established in com manding positions, within a short distance from the city walls, so that the bastions could be destroyed by our fire. This was successfully accomplished, but with the lam of two officers, Lieu. Hildebrand, of the Artillery, and Limit. Bannerman, of the Belooch Battalion, who were killed. Having thus established batteries in advanced positions, the bombardment of the city commenced, and the Cashmere and Mooree bastions suffered severely/rem our shot and shell. The enemy replied smartly with pope and musketry, but our lam was inconsiderable, and our tire was kept up with undiminished vigour. On the lUth and 11th of September, one or two sorties were made by the enemy, but without any result, notwithstanding the proximity of our batteries to the walls. For two days longer, our artillery continued to play on the sky, until, on the 12th, the Cashmere bastion and half the adjacent curtain were in ruins. Preparatiou were now made for the assault, and General Wilson, in an order issued • few days previous, laid down the line of conduct to be pursued by the troops. No quarter was to be given to the mutineers, but the women and children were to be spared. On the 14th September, the assault was made on the city, which was entered by a division of our troops, who suc ceeded in effecting a lodgment,and driving the enemy before them. The following telegraphic message from Colonel Durand, at Mhow, to Lord Elphinstone at Bombay, gives particulars of the successful assault ' on Delhi : "Captain FAlen, at Jeypoor, sends, by ►n express dated 18th, the following from Colonel Young, written from headquarters, Skinner's House, Delhi , 111th :—The assault took place yesterday morning eosin after daybreak, and the storming was entirely successful; we were soon in possession of the end of the fort, with the Cashmere, Cabal, and Slooree gaits, which we now hold, with the Church, Col lege, and other large buildings near this one, in which the headquarters are. Preparations are making for heavy batteries to knock the mutineers out of those parts of the city in which they now are. Many of the city people have come in for and re ceived quarter. Sepoys wanted to come, but not permitted. Casualties said to be heavy. No artil lery officers killed or wounded. A great many of the mutineers escaped. Cavalry left last night—it is said, towards Rewaree." Mr. Greathead writes : DELHI, thrr. 12. "It was before reported that the 18 gnu battery No. IL, in front of Ludlow Castle. had , w ith th e k id a heavy mortars, quickly silenced the Cashmere Bastion. "That bution has not since replied, and heavy salvos are continually directed against it. No. I. battery continues to hre into the Moree : it is a heap of ruins, but the gunners manage to fire light guns from different parts. "No.III. at the Custom-house his not yet opened. Some alterations had to be made in it. It is ex pected it will be ready this evening. "The enemy have not made any more eorties, but they keep up a brisk Are of musketry in front of the bastions from rifle pits and among the jungle, and they have a flanking fire from held pieces on the right, and from a heavy gun and mortar on the other side the river. Suleymgarh and the Water Bastion also tire on the left and centre batteries. /Lockets are occasionally fired from a martello tower in front, and there are singe light guns on two others. " All this does not ntard the progress of the siege, or lead to any interruption of fire. And, though the delay about No.III. is certainly a disappointment, there is still every lemon for congratulation. A position has bees seized and maintained for breath ing purposes which, if worked up to according to rule, would not have been ours for some time, and our fire is very destructive. " A party of the enemy's cavalry, 200 in number, got across the cut of the Canal yesterday, to cut utf our camels. They retired on seeing a force coming against them, and might have got off, but they were met by 80 of the Guide Cavalry under Captain Sand ford, and two ressaldars and 2, sowers were killed on the field. The rest got off to Delhi. " The sense of impending danger his roused the energies of the l'andics, and they talk of nothing bat defence, and are making dumdummas near the magazine and between the Cashmere and Cabulee gates. But experience has hitherto shown that , dime energies fail when the moment of action ar rives ; and I think it is generally a source of con gratulation that the rebel. are hot availing them selves of the many avenues of escape. The popula tion appears quiescent. "Major Campbell, of the Artillery, was wounded bya grape-shot in the leg in battery, and Lieutenant Lockhart is also wounded. The enemy was quieter last sight, and the casualty return for the last '24 boom G, I hope, moderate. The erections of No. 111. aft • psi many men. • All quiet above." _ "DELHI, SEPT. 13. "Alter I wrote yesterday, the left batteries opened a gain st the Water Bastion and curtain, with one gun bearing on the causeway leading to the bridge, and have continued in full play. They have to endure a warm musketry fire from the walls, and shot and shell from Saleyingurh, and from across the river. " The army has suffered a severe loss in the death of Captain Fagan of the Artillery, lie waa an ad mirable officer, and has been the life of the camp. His daring was unbounded, and he could not be re strained from exposing himself over the breastwork to observe the line of tire from the new battery, and was shot through the head. "The other casualties are lieutenant Earl, Artil lery, and Chancellor, 7.lth, wounded. The loss among the men is held to be moderate. " The centre batteries have continued an increas ing fire against the Cashmere Bastion and curtain, and the mortars keep up a searching fire on its neighbourhood. Nu. 1. still grinds away at the Morey. "The enemy have mounted a heavy gun in two places on half moons in the wall, and are persevering in their enfilade from the right, and are doing their best to defend the place. " The officers never leave the batteries, which are open to the sky ; but the only men who are dispirited are those whom sickness or wounds keep in camp. " I have had no intelligence from the town since the evening of the 11th. "General Nicholson will command the moveable column to be sent from this. We may expect to hear of the assault in a day or two." The following extra of the Delhi Genelie, pub lished at Agra, on the 18th September, gives details of the storming operations on the 1 Ith : Delhi, September 14.—Mr. Grcathed writes: " Delhi was stormed this morning, and the British forces are in possession of the line of defences from the water bastion to the Cabal Gate, including the The following description is from a letter from Colonel Becher: The troops entered et the breech near the Cashmere gate without serious opposition, and gained poestemion of the large buildings in its neighbourhood, and advanced along the ramparts to the Moores bastion and Cabal gate, in pro great to which the ravishes» wee very obstinate, and the lose oonmequently has been severe. But we me advancing gradually within the city. Large bodies of the enemy here been wren retreating, both in the direction of the Kotub and new the bridge. Arrange ments are making for batteries to be made in the city, and their beery guns have been turned wind them. The government had published the following ofß cial bulletins from Lahore, giving the particulars of the aasault on Delhi to the 16th September, together with an express from Oeneral Roberts at Ahmeda bad, stating that the whole of the city was in our possession on the 20th, and that the Ring of Delhi had been taken prisoner: "CHIEF COMMISSIONER'S OFFICE. "LAHORE, Sur. 16. _ "The following messages were received from Delhi during the course of yesterday and this morning from the office of the Adjutant-General of the Army: "' 9 a. N. 15th Sept.—We continue to hold the City from the College to the Cabool gate, and the enemy holds the magazine, which we arc now shell ing. The palace is also being shelled. Many of the mutineers had fled yesterday. The following officers were killed :—Lieutenant Tandy, Engineers, Lieutenant Fitzgerald, 76th Foot, Lieutenant Bradshaw, 52nd Foot, Captain Mcllarnett, 55th Infantry; Lieutenant Murray, Guide Corps; Major Jacob, Ist Fusiliers, has died from his wounds. About thirty officers have been wounded, including Brigadier General Nicholson, Lieutenant Ni cholson, of Coke's Regiment; Greathed, !dam sel!, Chesney, Balkeld, Brownlow, Hoeenden, and Medley, Engineers ; Waters and Curtis, 60th Rifles ; Ross of Carabineers (dangerously); Anson, A.D.C. ; Baynes and Pogson, Bth Foot; Greville, Wemyse and Owen, Ist Fusiliers; Reid, Birmoor Battalion ; Boisragori, /Coulson Battalion, and several others whose names have not yet been received ; but our total lass is estimated at 600.' " Another message (hour not given) states that 'the captured guns .on the Moores and Cabool bas tions are also in play on the Burn bastion and Lahore gate—new positions occupied by mutineers. Some Cavalry and Infantry have left since yesterday evening, but the garrison still show every intention of disputing our further entrance.' " 8 p.m., 15th September.—' All well. We have made a breach in the magazine, and storm it at dawn. The enemy's musketry Sze is much re duced.' " No official account has yet been received of the successful attack by a portion of General Van Con landt's force on the rebel village of 31ungella,but a number of the 10th Cavalry men bare been killed and 13 of them, with some others, made prisoners, were immediately executed on the spot. About 20,000 rupees worth of plunder is said to have fallen into the hands of our men, and 80 horses and some 2,000 head of other cattle. "P. 6.-7 A.

" The battery across the river opposite Kingurh is also reported to have been abandoned by the mutineers, who are in detached groups fighting from the tops of houses ; their organisation into regiments is fut being broken up. " Dewan Hurrce Chund, the Comm andant of the auxiliary force of His Highness the Maharajah Hun bbeer Sing, died of cholera yesterday ; his death is much to be regretted.

"General Van Cortlandt reports the destruction on the 13th instant, by a portion of the Hurrianah irre gular force under hie command, of the insurgent village of Mungulpore. The rebels drew up a force of from 700 to MOO horse, from 400 to 500 infantry, and some guns to defend the village; but after the exchange of a few shots, they broke and fled with the utmost rapidity, leaving their camp in our hands just as it stood; some ammunition and tire cart-loads of Sepoys' things, such as coats, panta loons, &e. P.S.—The following has just been received from the Aseiztant-Adjutant-General of the Army: Delhi, 7 p.m., 16th September. We have now established a line of posts from the Cabool gate to the magazine; an attack was made on the magazine to-day, which was repulsed, but we had some men killed and wounded. (Signed) " I. I). MACPHERSON, Lient.-Col., Military Secretary to Chief Commissioner." The following (says the Bombay Times) was re ceived by express from General Roberts, command ing the forces at Ahmedabad, who despatched the intelligence to the Governor on the 29th September : " By express through Dr. Derinzy, Residency Sur geon, Jeypore, 23rd September, 5 A.X. We have this moment received information from the Darby, FROM A FRENCH SOURCE. The Paris Pap gives the following details of the taking of Delhi: " General Wilson received his siege artillery on September 9. The siege works had been actively pushed on for a fortnight previously, and the be sieging force had arrived within 150 metres of the place. It was resolved to form at once three storm ing batteries,:one of seven guns, against the slooree gate bastion ; another of six guns against the bastion of the Cashmere-gate ; and a third of eight gm; against that of the Lahore-gate. Captains Smith, Ward, and I Mnaldson, of the Bengal artillery, were appointed to construct these batteries. All was ready by the evening of the 13th, and on the morning of the 14th the fire was opened. The three batteries kept up their fire day:and night. On the 16th it was ascertained that practicable breaches bad been made in the Mooree and Lahore bastions. It was resolved to commence the assault the next day, the 17th. At day-break the columns advanced from their lines and rushed upon the city. As soon as the column of attack against the Mooreebastion had got through the breach, the rebels retreated, but a few minutes afterwards a powder magazine, which they had used to supply their batteries, blew up and killed a great many English officers and soldiers. The General, suspecting the existence of other mines, ordered • retreat. On the fol- lowing day the firing re-commenced. A new battery wu constructed opposite the bastion of the Cabul gate, and on the 20th a general assault upon the town wu given with complete success. The King of Delhi, with his entire Court, and a great number of insurgents, had left some days before and bad taken the Lucknow road. Their departure threw the besieged into confusion. Had the insur gents been well commanded the result would have been widely different. The English, at this decisive period of the siege, showed great vigour and decision." GENERAL WILSON'S ADDRESS TO THE ATTACKING TROOPS. On the morning of the 14th of September the army moved down in three columns to the attack. Previous to marching, General Wilson issued the following order to his troops, which has called forth the most unqualified admiration: The force assembled before Delhi ha. had mu, h hardship and fatigue to undergo since Its arrival in this camp, all of which has been most cheerfully borne by officers and men. The time is now drawing neer when the major-general com manding the force trusts that their labours will be over, and they will be rewarded by the capture of the city for all their pest exertions, and for a cheerful endurance of still greater fatigue and expanse. The troop. will be required to aid and assist the Enginren in the erection of the batteries and trenches, and in daily expanse to the sun, as covering parties. The artillery will have even harder work than they yet have had, and which they have ao well and cheerfully per formed hitherto ; thia, however, will be for • short period only ; and wLen ordered to the assault, the major- general fee. armed British pluck and determination will carry everything before them, and that the bloodthirsty and murderous mutineers, against whom they are fighting, will be driven headlong out of their stronghold, or be extermi nated; but to enable them to do this, he warns the troop. of the abaoluta nrceseity of their keoping together, and not straggling from their columns. By thin can enema only be eocurcd. Itlajor-Generel Wilson need hardly remind the troops of the cruel murders committed on their officers and comrades, as well as their wives and children, to move them in the deadly etruggle. No quarter should be given to the muti neer.. at the mime time, for the sake of humanity, and the honour of the country they belong to, he calla upon them to spare all women and children that may come in their way. It is so imperative, not only for their safety, but for the @miens of the aessult, that men should not streggle from their column, that the major-general feels it his duty to direct ell commanding °Mem to impress this strictly upon their men, and he is confident that, after this warning, the men's good amen and discipline will induce them to obey their officers , and keep steady to their duty. It is to be explained to every regiment that indiscriminate plunder will not be allowed ; that prize agent, have been appointed, by whom ell captured property Intl be collected and sold, to be divided acoording to the rules and regulations on this hied, fairly among all men engaged , and that any man found guilty of having concealed captured property will be made to restore it, and will forfeit all claim' to the general prize ; he will also bo likely to be made over to the Provost- Marshal to be summarily dealt with. The Major-General tells upon the officers of the force to lend their zealous and efficient co-operation in the erection of the works of the siege now about to be commenced. Ile looks especially to the regimental officers of all grades, to impress open their men, that to work in the trenches during a siege is as ne ceesary and honourable es to fight in the ranks during a battle. Ile will hold all officers responsible for their utmost being 110 e to carry out the directions of the engineers, and he confidently trusts that ell will exhibit a healthy sad hearty epirit of emulation end zeal, from which he Ilea so doubt that the happiest remits will follow in the brilliant termination of all their labours. FLIGHT OF THE REBELS. A letter from Mr. Cocks, dated Marva, Septem ber 17th, afternoon, gives the following puilculars regarding the fugitive regiment, at Khoorjs : " A man I sent to Khoorjs for news has just returned, sad says that two and a half regiments have reached Khoorjs, being fugitives from Delhi, and swearing they are off to Luchnow, when is their home, and where they will die. The Bspoys are very badly off for arms, and even for Louie, although they bare money. The city was, it is said, stormed on Monday and the entrance made, and the streets ►nee deep in blood." RAJPOOTANA. From Rajpootana we learn, under date the 24th September, that the Neemuch force had a brush with the rebels, and took ten guns from them. The number of killed and wounded ia not known. The doctor of her Majesty's 831. d Regiment and several of the men are wounded, u also some of the 12th , Native Infantry and 2nd Cavalry . General George I Lawrence has had to fall back upon Bewar, about A portion of the force from Numeerabad hes gone out to intercept the mutineers of the Jondpore Legion, under the personal command of General Lawrence. They made 36 miles in the first march, which shows that the gram is not likely to grow under their feet, at all events. Nothing stirring here. The 83rd detachment lost a fine fellow yester day from fever, the second casualty since their weird here, end ere can 10 afford to lose a single European at present. The 83rd are just now almost the sole protectors of Rej pootana, end without there we could not possibly hold our position here. The men are exceedingly well-behaved, and Captain Read, their commanding officer, evidently under- Mande his work. They are anxious to have an opportunity of distinguishing themselves, and should the Mehomedana of Mundesore pay ea a visit, they may aspect a warm re ception.—Benekey Camp Beawnr, Sept, 13..—We ere still at this place. We tried to march three days ago, but after being out some hours in a drenching rain had to return, the road being im parable. The rest of the Horse Artillery end fifty more Ern-omens came out retards, fromNuesserabad. The faze sew coulee of troop of Horse Artillery, three guns, two howitzers, two small marten, two squadrons Lancers, MO 83rd Regiment, and 200 Ilhairwarre battalion. We are to march again to-morrow, and ought to be before Smell, where the mutineers are, in four or five marches. Front spies, ho., we leant, that the enemy an about two thousand, including six hundred regulars with eleven guns. The Rajah of Joud pore bade force of Irregulars besieging them, bat their camp was attacked, and they were totally dispersed, losing ell their guns—some seven or eight. The mutineers are in I greet feather after this, and I should not wonder if they come out to give us battle when we get near.—lbiel. The Joudpore Rajah has, we regret to hear, met with • reverse in an attack which he recently made upon his mutin ous legion with • number of newly raised levies. The muti neers beet off these raw levies with heavy loss, and in the action the Rajah's minister was killed.—/'woe Observer, Sept. 30. OUZERAT. AIIMEDABAD.—A futile attempt to get up a rising of the troops at Ahmedabad woe made by some men of the 2nd Native Infantry Grenadiers, on the night of the 16th inst. A letter from that station says :—" It appears that some ten or twelve men of the 2nd Grenadiers went to the gun sheds, either with the intention of *airing the guns or of inciting the (Mundanee to join them. The guard of the latter, however, turned out and threatened to shoot the first man who came R step nearer. The whole of the Golundaune then turned out, drew out the guns, har nessed the horn., and got all reedy for action. The men of the 2nd than went to the quarter-guard of the 7th Native Infantry, and were there received with the same threats of being instantly shot unto's they took them selves off. Finding it a failure they dispersed. The roll call was taken, and every man of the artillery and the 7th was found to be present, but two of the grenadiers were missing, and eight or nine of the same regiment were made primers. Some of the muskets were found to be loaded. This is all that is yet known, but an inquiry is to take place to-day. The Golundaure and 7th appear to have behaved well. Some native officers of the 2nd gave information that some thing wee wrong, and the military authorities were on the gai rare to prevent disturbance. —Bombe y Gazette Aare, September 23. INDORE AND MHOW. We learn from the Molussilite that the Indoor and Mhow mutineers have crossed the Chumbul, and were at the date of latest advices encamped between that river and Dhol pore. Their future movements are uncertain, bat should they approach Agra, they will meet with s warm reception. The Poona Observer haa been favoured with an mired of a letter from Mhow, dated the 18th September, in which It le stated that ten thousand mutineers had encamped within sight of the British camp, and that it was expected they would make an immediate attack on our force. Brigadier Stuart was, however, preparing to be beforehand with the scoundrels, of whom he will no doubt very soon render a good account with the aid of the troops under his command. NANA SAHIB'S PROCLAMATIONS. The following proclamations have been lamed by the miscreant Nana Sahib. The first is dated the let of July : " As, by the kindness of God and the Mal or good fortune of the Emperor, all the Christiana who weft at Delhi, Poonah, Satarah, and other places, and even those 5,000 European soldiers who went in dieguise into the former city and were &moseyed, are destroyed and sent to hell by the pions and sagacious troops, who are firm to their religion ; and as they have all been conquered by the present government, end sa no trace of them is left in these places, it is the duty of all the subject, end servants of the government to rejoice at the delightful intelligence, end to carry on their respective work with comfort and ease."

EXECUTIONS OF MUTINEERS. Yesterday afternoon, Sept. 17, at half-past four o'clock, our station (Kurrachee) was in a high state of ex citement, owing to its having become known that the general court-martial assembled for the trial of the mutineers of the 21st Native Infantry had finished its proceedings; and from seeing the gallows previously erected a some wee expected. Very shortly after that hour, the four companies of the 2nd European Regiment arrived on the ground, with the con demned prisoners on their reverse flank in slurries, escorted hy a strong guard under an officer. Presently came the 2lat Native Infantry, then the 14th Native Infantry, and Hone Artillery. The prisoners were then taken out of the gharriee, and their names called over by the brigade-major, and the first mono, who were condemned to be hung with the other three condemned to be blown away, were marched to the rear of the g sl lowo, between their late regiment and that erection. The court-martial and sentence of the court were then reed in English by the brigade-major, and ably translated in an audible voice by Major Goldsmith The seven prisoners for the scaffold were then marched up to its steps, and ascended without much assistance. One man only yoke when on the drop. He stated, " it war his fleet offence, and It was to tare hanging him : be had done 14 year,, nokrie." The ropes being adjusted after some little delay, the culprits being faced about to meet the gaze of their late corps, the signal wee given, and the seven unfortunate rascals wore launched into eternity. It was now found it would not do to blow away the remaining three in the equisre when the gallows had been erected, so the brigade war moved off about 200 yards towards the coal/an between the Sappm' lima, where three guns of the Hone Artillery were unlim bered, when the three eentenced to be blown away met with their doom. The brigade remained on the ground half-an-hour, during • which time the bodies were left hanging, and then cut down TROOPS IN AND AROUND DELHI.

The much-dreaded crisis liis --- Piufseci'ciVer. The Mohnrrum passed away quietly, but not without considerable apprehension, owing to the large num ber of convicts (2,400) which the government of India has sent to injure this settlement, by freeing the continent of its worst scum. That no outbreak ensued we have not to thank the executive, inas much as one of the chief civil authorities has re cently admitted that any rising was kept down by the influence exerted by three first-class convicts, who, having a large amount of property outside the convict lines, knew they would lose it should any disturbance take place. This admission of the civil authorities, coupled with their expressed con viction that, in the event of the convicts rising, there is not sufficient military here to put them down, may well cause much apprehension and just indignation on the part of the free population. The military guard at the convict lines consist of Madras Sepoys, and a large portion of the convicts are from the Madras Presidency, so that in the event of any disaffection on the part of the troops, they would no doubt fraternise with their condemned countrymen. At present these troops (belonging to the 12th and 38th Madras Na tive Infantry) are staunch, but their loyalty would probably cease if the Madras army, to any extent, followed the evil example of the Bengal Sepoys. On the 10th instant Lord Elgin and suite, with General Straubenzie and Major the Hon. H. Pellew, arrived here in the Ava, and sailed for Hong Kong on the morning of the 14th. His Excellency ap pears disappointed with reference to his mission to India. It is said that his Excellency was no party to the address of General Hearsey, or the suggestion to the Bengal Sepoys of volunteering for service in China, but I believe that the contrary was really the case. The General, notwithstanding his disclaimer, would never have ventured to make the offer on his own responsibility. The attempt to induce the mutinous regiments to volunteer for service in China has signally failed, and few people like to father an unsuccessful project from which much was ex pected. PERSIA. CAMP, Brewing., SEPT. 10.—Captain Graves, with the Head Quarters of the 3rd cavalry, embarks on the Arthur the Greet the day after to-morrow, and Captain Moore, with Lieutenant Stephens, on board the Caducei'', on the mime day. Lieutenant Spans, with another detach ment, will embark on board the Mier:spots on Monday or Tuesday next. Then there will be left here about 200 troopers, with Captaius Oldfield (commanding) and Wren Lieutenant Le Goyt, Cornet Currie, and Dr. Bruce. Mr. Murray, our ambassador at Teheran, has written officially to Capt. Jonee,the reeident,to "ay that our rear guard here may be attacked by the Tangistanee tribe, which has created a groat alarm among the Armenian merchants and others bens. The Chiki Beebe has come down from Shim, and is close here, ready to take possession on our evacuating the place. In consequence of the abovementioned report, General Jacob has determined on staying till last of all. There is a report here, of which Mr. Malcolm, the Armenian merchant, is the originator, that Mr. Slangy and the Shah have had • row, and that the former has struck his flag, but it is to be hoped that this will prove mete gup. The rear-goard here is to conaist of two guns, 200 sabres of the Jed Cavalry, and the whole of the 20th Native Infantry.—Booky. Ga zette, Sept. 29.
