From the provinces we learn that, under the renowned chief Le, the rebels gave battle to the Imperialists under General Kwun near Scu-hieg, and a complete victory, ally three boats eses ed to Canton to tell the result, and carrying Le's vado challenge to Yeh to come on again as seam se he could get ready.

The first-clans city of See king is in very straitened circumstance.. " Another rebel chief called Lein, with fifty thou sand men, has had a hard battle with Imperialist troops from Teue.chow, and having gained the vic tory his Excellency is compelling the whole of the surrounding country people to submit to Lis rule. Fearing for the _provincial city itself, Yeh is sailing in all the Tsue-chow men, and has sta t a thousand of them in the south eastern suburbs. The leaden of the ninety six villages, too, have had to send their notes of armed men 1 between two and three thousand of them are in the western suburbs. The Banner-men, Manchus, and the Lieutenant-Go vernor's guards, altogether about three thousand, are trooped on the heights beyond the northern wall. "The Hak-has of Ko-meng and six other dis tricts have united, and are burning and destroying wherever they go.

Tha Ife lbseree Argue of July 22 elates that :" The reports from our gold-fields give steady evidence of the wonderful resources of the colony in this great staple export. The escort returns are below the average of the year 1836, but are very nearly equal to those of the same period of that year. 'twang the last thirteen weeks the quantities have amounted to 362.866 ounces, which shows an average weekly yield of 43,284 ounces. In the thirteen correspond tog weeks of 1836 the quantities brought down by escort amounted to 579,861 ounces, n hich gives an avenge yield of 44,601 ounces. 'lhe balance in favour of the weekly average of the year 1836 is 1,920 ounces. "The labour market continues in pretty much the same state as it was in when our last summary was prepared. There are still many men about town who are unable to find employment, and their num ber has been much increased during the last few days. Most of these are new arrivals, and men un accustomed to hard work, who hang about town in the vain hope of obtaining something in the nature of a light, and at the same time remunerative, oetupation. Although the number of unimploysd men in and about Melbourne is quite as great, there is not so much complaint as there was a few weeks since. . _ " This Land Bill has aroused a spirit of very general opposition throughout the country. Public meetings have been held, and numerous petitions presented against it. The opposition has now found a centre in a convention of delegates, consisting of some eighty persons elected by political meetings, to oppose the bill. The general body of the public look to the liberal members of the government and of the Assembly for protection against the designs of the squatters and the insolent threats of the Convention. They are desirous that an equitable compromise should be effected between the squatters oa the one hand and the community on the other. The bill for the abolition of State aid to religion, brought in by the Attorney-General, and supported by the ministry generally, was read a second time in the Assembly by a large majority. The measure will pus through its remaining stages in the Lower House, but it is more than probable that the Council will reject it. There have been two elections since our last. In East Bourke Mr. °reeves, un seated u a punishment for his joining the O'Sba noisy Ministry, hu been reinstated upon a subse quent vacancy. In South Bourke, Mr. lticardo, en agriculturist, and determined opponent of the pre sent Land Bill, was elected by a very large majority to the seat resigned by Capture Peaky on his accept ance of office in the Public Works department."

A torrent which fall. over a precipice behind the Allege, end joime the Den aroma a little way below, was swollen by the rainstorm which came on that evening to such a degree that it washed down a greet mar of earth and rocks hear the mountain side, and overwhelmed the lower part of the Align.

TRANSPORT OF TROOPS TO MIA. We are informed that the Nast India Company have declined Messrs. Croakey's proposal for the establishment of a transport service to India rid Egypt. The directors state that it is not the inten tion of her Majesty's gcnernment to send any large number of troops across the Desert at present, and therefore they cannot avail themselves of the pro posal which might otherwise be adopted with ad vantage to the public service. This is assuming a grave responsibility, as we learn that the fleet now (Aired cannot be obtained later in the year, should it be deemed desirable to organise the proposed line of communication with our Indian colonies.

The Lord Provost, who occupied the &sir, was accomptakad to the platlorm by s numerous body of the nowt influential citizens, including the committee under whose auspiors the testimonial was subecribed to. . . . . . The Loan riiiivoar, in a few introductory words, having introduced Use subject, Baffle )(ANNAN, altar dwelling upon the indomitable spirit mad mew which at the outset raised Dr. Livingetun roma the bumble patties of acotton spinner, and eventually, enabled him to take so pond a position as a miasionary, sod a sureemfoll and 'demi& explorer of • hitherto unknown chine, alluded in graceful tenon to the eiretunatancen under which he was again leaving his country to preach the Gospel among the heathen, his children remaining behind as a charge upon the gratitude of the nation. As • mark of the esteem in which his labours were held by the ciUsens of Cileagow, in common with the red of the country, • money testimonial had been maw:riled for, so that, to 'Murals( to his labours he might do so with a load of anxiety removed from his mind in regard to his family—this subscription having been wholly subscribed to by the citizens of Glasgow, unaided by any otMir diet rims. Hattie Hannan concluded his teen•rt amid much applause, by presenting Dr. Livingston with a cheque fur 2,0801, am the result of this subscription. Dr. Ltviscutiros, in expressing his acknowledgments, hoped that his future laimurs would be prosecuted with in creased vigour. now that ell anxiety was removed with re gard to his children, whom he was leaving behind.

LONDON, SATURDAY, SRPT. 19. Ax experiment—we learn from the last letter of one Bombay correspondent—is being tried in India the result of which will be looked for in this country and throughout Europe with anxious expectation. In consequence of a requisition from Calcutta, the 17th and 27th Madras Native Infantry, the Bth Ma- dras Native Cavalry, and a company of Native Artil lery (with native drivers), have been embarked at Madras for Bengal. The loyalty of our Madras army is about to be put to a severe test—a test to which, it is evident, it has been deemed unsafe to subject the army of the sister Presidency in the Deccan. " I direct your attention," writes our correspondent, to the significant fact that no Bombay native troops have yet found their way to the mutiny of Delhi, or been employed out of the Presidency." Events may show that we have been mistaken ; but we confess we are sanguine in our expectation that the Madras army will stand the test. It is in composition and character essentially different from the armies of either of tho other two Presidencies. In the Bengal Infantry, in 1852, of a total of 83,946 men, 12,690 were Mahometana, 26,983 Brahmins, and 27,335 Ragpoots. In the Bombay Infantry, in the same year, of 25,938 men, 1,920 were Maho , =tans, 6,928 Brahmins and Itajpoots, end 8,037 Mahrattas. Whereas in the Madras Infantry, still in the same year, of 44,191 men there were only 2,037 Brahmins and Ragpoots, sod 452 bfah raft's ; and, though there were 15,790 Mahometans, three were mixed up with (so-called) Gentoos, of whom 16,590 were of Telinga, and 4,792 of Tamil race. It is evident from this statement that in the Bengal and Bombay armies the least loyal cuter or races bear a much larger proportion to the whole than in the Madras army. But our opinion, that the Madras army will be found more trustworthy at this crisis than the armies of either of the other Presidencies, rests upon other considerations besides those of mere caste or race. The profession of soldier, like every other profes sion in India, is in a great measure hereditary. The Bengal army was originally composed of soldiers who had been trained in the armies of the native Princes of Ilindostan, and is still recruited from the descendants of such soldiers. The traditions of the Bengalarmy have scarcely anything in them that iden tities it with their English rulers. The Bengal Sepoys cherish the remembrance of times when, under native chiefs, they enjoyed much greater licence and far higher consideration than they enjoy under the Eng lish Government. From a mistaken notion of the best way to conciliate their affections, the Bengal Sepoys have had much that they have inherited from old times in respect of discipline, tolerated and connived at. To the anti-English spirit which has thus been developed and strengthened in their ranks, we owe in a great degree the present mutiny. We do not mean by this that intrigue and conspiracy have not been at work among them ; bat simply that, but for the circumstances to which we have adverted, the intriguers and conspirators would have found it much more difficult to debauch the whole of the Bengal Army. The condition and character of the Bombay Army are essentially different. The far greater part of the territory of the Bombay Presidency is of compa ratively recent acquisition, and its army—on its pre sent scale—is of equally recent origin. The Bombay army is as yet too young for the esprit-de corps to have impressed upon it a decidedly peculiar character of its own; and it is composed of most heterogeneous materials. More than one-third of the whole army are Mahrattaet and of the remain ing two-thirds the greater part is composed of recruits from Ilindostan—from the same classes of which the Bengal army is almost entirely made up. The reduction of the Mahmttas is yet too recent for , their soldiers to have acquired a traditional loyalty to their regimental colours; and the men recruited from the Deccan sympathise with the Bengal Army. We think we can trace the results of this composition of the Bombay Army in recent events. It lacks that esprit-de-corps which has made the army of Bengal rime in mutiny like one man. But it contain, within it elements hostile to British rule which are easily wrought upon. To this we owe the partial mutinies which have already taken place, and shall owe those which there is but too much reason to fear arc yet to follow. The Madras Army has, unlike the Bombay Army, a very marked character of its own ; and this cha racter differs materially from that of the Bengal Army. The lint nucleus of the Madras Army was formed long ago, of soldiers who had little or no intercourse with the armies of the native I'rinces of Hindostan. The original territory of the Madras Presidency was in a great measure isolated from Hindortan proper. On the north-cast it was separated from Bengal and Behar by an impracticable, hilly, jungly region, thinly in habited, and for the most part by savage tribes of Aborigines. From Mysore to the Nerbudda, &large portion of the country above the Chants was occu pied by the Mahrattaa ; and the same ram held possession of a broad belt of country, which shut out the NIZAII'D territories from Central India, and extended as far west as the almost uninhabited mountain region which separated Madras from Bengal and Behar. This impracticable country and the Mahrattas together acted ea a cordon sanitaire to preserve the Deccan from the contagion of the politics of Hindostan. The social diseases of the Deccan were all itaown. The NIZAD had pre eti ; eally thrown off his allegiance to the MOGCL. HYOID and Tn'roo openly set the MOGUL at defi i &nee. The native Princes in the extreme south of the Peninsula had ceased to have any political relations with the north. The English at • 244dras and - the native states in their immediate vicinity formed a political system entirely apart from that of Minded= and Central India. They waged war and. contracted treaties among themselves; they sometimes joined together to resist the encroachments of the Mahrattu, and sometimes members of this defensive league would break from the rest and court the alliance of that predatory con federacy. Under such auspices the Madras Army was diveloped, and from them it took its tone. Its origi nal nucleus was a band of faithful and devotedvassals of the English. Its successive augmentations were derived from States which had been accustomed to act in concert with us, and were gradually absorbed into our dominions. The pressure of Mahratta hostility continued long enough to con firm in the Madras Army a spirit identified with English interests. The military traditions of the Madras Army are more English than Indian. It is this that induces us to repose in the loyalty of the Madras Sepoya a confidence which we have never reposed in those of Bengal or Bombay—a confidenos which recent events have totally annihilated, in so far as the Bengal army is concerned, and considerably shaken in respect to the army of Bombay. With all this confidence, however, it is impossible to watch without deep anxiety the trial that is about to be made of the loyalty of the native army of Madras by sending it into the valley of the Ganges. Much more may—must—depend upon it than the suppres . _ sion of a gnat mutiny in Bengal. Come what may, we can never bold India by the exclusive agency of European troops. If we are to remain masters of India we must continue to employ large numbers of native soldiers. Where are we to get them? The Choorkas are talked of: excellent soldiers, but limited in number. The Sikhs : they have in gt neral conducted themselves well hitherto; but our experience of them is too short. The Bheels, Jats, &c. : they are an too low a scale of civilisation to be efficient alone, or as a large component part of an army. If the Madras Army continue loyal, we have there the nucleus of a new army, upon which may be formed one sufficiently large for our purposes out of whatever may be found more or less trust worthy throughout our Indian dominions. Mutiny and insurrection are still spreading eastward through Bengal. They have reached Sagowlie in the north and Midoapore in the south. It is possible— a possibility which it would be unsafe to overlook in our contingent arrangements for the future—that mutiny and insurrection may spread as far as Dacca and Ilinagspore. It is possible that WlLsos may be compelled to fall back upon Umballa, as HAVELOCK has been compelled to fall back upon Cawopore. It is possible that the mutinous spirit which has dis played itself at the extreme south and at the extreme north of the Bombay Presidency may break out in other quarters. A private letter from Bombay in forms us that the Marine Battalion there has " re rim(' duty." It is on the cards that our possessions in Bengal and Bombay may be limited for a time to the Residency Cities. Even though this were to be _ . the case in all the three Presidencies, we know well enough the resources, the courage, and the dogged perseverance of England to feel assured that we shall yet reconquer India. With these three pieds-j-terre, and our navy, we can and shall do it, even though driven to such an extremity. But if the Madras Native Army keep staunch—as we hope and believe it will—our labour will be immensely lightened, let things go how they will in Bengal and Bombay. The Calcutta papers received by the present mail make no distinct mention ofthe return of Gen. Have lock to Cawnpore. Has might be accounted for by _ _ that the Calcutta papers were pub- Hailed on Saturday, the Bth of August, and the Intel ligence may have been received between then and the 10th, when the mail left Calcutta. The mail, however, brings news from Madras to the 17th which says that General Havelock had to fall back on Cawnpore owing to the ravages of cholera amongst bia forces, and could not advance till he received re inforcements. The letter from General Havelock's camp of the Ist of August seems to have been written after this backward movement. fbt court. BALMORAL Bff7. 17.

So far is Madras is concerned (saystheAtkeersum) the most important event that has occurred during the past fortnight, or indeed during any number of past fortnights, is the" warning" which Lord Barris haa given the Madras Examiner for quoting a pars graph from the Bengal Heirkarti. which stated that the Madras government had recommended the re moval of Dr. Balfour from his appuintment as go vernment agent at Chepauk on account of his op pressions,—and for praising the course adopted by the Madras government as a sure means of preserv ing tranquillity among the Mussulmans in Trip licane. With regard to military matters, it may be mo tioned that Sir Colin Campbell touched at Madras in the steamer which arrived on the 9th inst., and yawed on to Bengal to take up the chief command in Recruiting in the Punjaub is going on most favourably, and in a short time it is expected that thirty-thousand Sikhs will be enlisted.

THE EXPRESS, SATURDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER .19, 1857.. TILE WEEKLY PRESS. The Saturday Retina says the difficulty of pro. riding for the security of India by a force exclusively Euro peen is perfectly enormous.

There are tithe; considerations which have lass force at meant than st other times. Exceptional remains' stand for the moment In need of no lila iftentiOn , but, in the long ran, we shall aawaradly chafe at the judgment which our critics In Europe sad America will not be slow to par on our &minim, if It allowed to rest permanently - on the bayonets of a foreign soldiery. Oar Indian empire will be somoely more in hare teeny with our situation in Europe, if we adopt the nutrias principle of playing nationalities spinet each other by committing the guardianship of the Bonged province to Ohoorkea and Sikhs, who have no more affinity for Hindoos than a Turk has for ea Irishman or a Swede. The Leader enters its protest against the present system of literary puffing, and observes that when, slier all forms of puffing have bees tried in vein, the book remise unsold, a fresh title page Is plated. The volume formerly called " The War in the Punjab," is now called " The Be. gal kintbsy." " Misery," a tale of appalling intend, reap. pears se " Woe! Woe I" a work which should be in every young lady's hands. It will come out next year se " Eualine; or, the Story of an Anguished Heart." We shall be told, "This is a fiction of surpassing power." Bat who will tell us? One who would as willingly indite the peeks of a pill or a paletot as promote the immortality of " Bualine." There may be no rice, no dishonesty in the practice; but if it misleads the public, it is at least per. airless, and ought to be known fur what it Is. The Press is given to understand that recruiting for the srmy does not advance with cc much rapidity as might be desired in the grave emergencies of the present crisis. Whether it is that the pressure upon the labour market, in all its various branches, is unusually severe or that the enrolling of the militia corps, either for embodiment or for training, has lessened the supply of that class of men who are available for the military service, or that the inducements to enlist in - the form of bounty, pension, and similar advantages, have not been raised in proportion to the exigencies of the eccaaion— whether one or all of these canoes conjointly and in their several degrees have contributed to tho result, we know not. We are inclined to believe that enough has not loan done to render the profusion of arms an object of ambition to the industrial population. We cannot see the use of the restrictions as to height and age which are now in force, In an emergency of this character expedition is everything, and we are still of opinion that if our standing army must be hummed, the quickest and most effective mode of doing en would be to firm an auxiliary corps of such regiments of militia as see willing, with their officers, to be enrolled in the Queen's irony. It would be easy to make them distinct, if it should be thought necessary to do so, and the inducements of half-pay pensions sod widows' allowances might verg properly be held out to them. The Dispatch still enforces the advantages which the conquests of commerce have over those of armies, and sake—" Will our people take warning! Will they say with us, No more conquests, no more territory; contract our liabilities, eschew all new obligations I" We are about to renew oar Atrium expeditions. Perpetual wars with the Kaffir. have made the Cape se yet wholly unprofitable to us. We have cloven regiments of the line there, which Governor Grey says he connot safely spare for India. Will we now learn the common sense of the maxim that customers are better than nominal subjects, and that every now oats quest is • new care, root, and responsibility, profitable only to • Dowb,' and throe who patronise him! We fear we have the answer in Ibis question—We have a Lord Cough and a Lord Keene, but who ever heard of a Baron Barth, or a Lord Livingstone r Herepath's Journal suggests this is the time fos reducing railway establishmenta. The government is is want of withers for India, and none better can be had than railways supply. They are, for the moat part, Englishmen of the right metal. On the occasion of the last war— with Roast‘—the railway companies performed a very valuable similar service for the government. Tbs reduction recommended is in surplus hands that hays nothing to do with the safe running of trains, but only with the handling of varpst bags and such like, and those em ployed on works of construction which need not be completed in these times of war and money tightness. At some coin• try railway statiouti, for instance, there ars shout as many porters as passengers, which of course cannot be needed, and cannot pay. The United Service Gazette says :—" The recruit. lag sergeant cannot stand against the temptation held out by youth ambitious of obtaining commissions. A perfect army would have been placed at the disposal of the Com mander-in-Chief in a very few weeks if the system had been continued of giving an ensigncy for one hundred men, fee offices were immediately opened all over the country, and 21. per head offered in addition to the bounty. Recruiting officers stood aghast at the competition, and the militia colonels and adjutants were about to surrender is despair. It has been announced, therefore, that for the present the offer of commissions so a bonus is suspended, and the recruiting must take its usual constr. By all wombe there is no lack of men now that the harvest has been gathered in all over the country. The Atlas thinks there must be come suoh weighty reason as the personal convenience of Somebody 's Couein or surely even our government would not, at the present eubject the public to an unnecesaary suspense of two or three days in waiting for Indian news, as it does, by still in. Mating that the despatches in anticipation of the overland Mall shall be sent rim Cagliari. Cagliari is four, if not five, days' tail from Alexandria, even fur a quick steamer; so tha t , when the mails have safely pared the perils of the Indian Oman and the desert five days, some time must elapse eee any telegraphic hint of their contents can be put in motion. Now, there happens to he a city called Constantinople, which is only two days mil from Alexandria. and from which city there is a telegraphic communication all the way Is London. The queetiota then arises, why not send the nails from Alexandria to Constantinople, and telegraph the nature of thcir contents from Constantinople to London One objection has been urged toads, that the line of telegraphic communication with the Turkish capital runs through Aus trian territory, and our Government would rather trust their secrets in safer keeping than the bands of our great Inverts; (we beg pardon, and Royal) German ally. Very good; but are they are in safer keeping now? What guarantee have we for the fidelity of the !Imit ator and French governments to our interests in preference to that of the Austrian? During the Crimean war, when Austria was more than half siding with our enemy, she transmitted our messages foe us faithfully. Surely, now we are on such tremendously affectionate terms with her, she may be relied upon foe the performance of the same friendly office? At any rate, the short cut might be tried; and, in the event of anything like a hitch, we could return to the old roundabout route , as before. But the het is, Anaria ie not the objection. Depend upon it, we was right in our miens! surmise. VACANCIES A APPOIN77/E2178, AND nem. TION3 IN 7112 CIVIL SERVICE.
