A TELEGE prtic anticipation of the Bombay Mail—rid Cagliari—reached the Foreign-office yea- terday morning, at an early hour. Our own came to hand a few hours later. A good deal of the news contained in both is a mere rechauffl of the news received by the previous mail. Of this nature is the notice of the victory obtained by General Ilirtiocu near Bitoor on the 16th of August ; the defeat of the Dinapore mutineers near Same= by Major Err.e ; the oonstzuction of entrenchments at Bemires on account of demonstrations by the Gude insurgents ; and the mutiny of the sth Bengal Irregular Cavalry. The following resume may mere to convey a distinct notion of what is really new in these despatches. The assault of Delhi, which was so confidently announced for the 20th of August, has been postponed till after the lit or 3rd of September, "on " the arrival of the siege train." It is to be hoped that this is not the siege train on its way up the Ganges, under the charge of Captain Pan., respect ing which an officer of the Bengal army wrote from Calcutta by last mail•—" He (Captain P.) is said to " hare stated that there is no chance of the fall of " Delhi till his 68-pounders open fire on her walls." In the meantime General NICHOLSON has been doing good service in that quarter. On the 26th of August he•defeated a detachment of the mutineers at Nujuff- Our, and took thirteen guns and their camp bag gage. Nujoffghur is situated fifteen miles to the 8. W. of Delhi, on the west shore of an extensive lake, which is formed by the Hansonti torrent daring the rainy season. General Ntcunt.Atix'a vie• key will have the effect of rendering the communi cations of the army before Delhi with the Punjaub ten secure. A email party pent oat from Agra has also gained some advantage over the rebels near Alighor. As a set-off against this good news, the mutiny of two more Bengal regiments—the 10th Light Cavalry, at Ferocepore, and the 31st Native Infantry, at Peabawur—together with the disarming of the 65th Native Infantry, at Geriposc, are reported. For reliable news of what is going forward to the test of Delhi we moat wait for the Calcutta mail. Sir 1 ices Ortll i'i is said to have reached Allele bad on the lit of September, " with strong nip " foreetnents." It will be remembered that the officer from whose letter we bare quoted above wrote, " In " the ordinary course of events the 90th Regiment " would be at Allahsbed on the 20th [of Acquit:, and "at Cawnpare on the 23th. The greater portion or " the sth Fusiliers would be close behind them." The public will be carious to learn how the arrival of these reinforcements at Mahatma has been ten days behind the " ordinary " bourse ;" and how it comes that four additional days are now required (or their transport from Anglia bad to Cawnpore. The last news we have of Hsvetnen WAS his retreat upon Cerapore, after defeatirg the enemy near Bitoor. That wee on the 18th of August ; according to the statement in the Telegram, therefore, Ise would have bean left nearly • whole month without any reinforcements. And Lacknow, we are told, cannot possibly be relieved before the 13th of September. The news from the Bombay Presidency is of a more tranquillising character. The QUEEN'i N9LI2 Regiment had reached Bombay from the Cape, and had been immediately sent on to Dens. The muti neers of the Joudpore legion (embracing, it now appears, every man in it) are said to have marched in the direction of Delhi, but it was expected that they would be intercepted by a force sent out from Naeseerabad. The troopers of the 2nd Bombay Light Cavalry, which mutinied at Nermuch on the 12th of August, bad been disarmed. This is a good account of the state of Itsjpootana ; the only intel ligence from the Mahratta division of the Presidency is that seventeen prisoners, convicted of treason, had been executed at Sattara on the Bth of September. The 93th Regiment was hourly expected at Bombay. Respecting the state of affairs in the Madras Pre sidency, there is nothing in the Telegram beyond the vague assurance that it continues tranquil. The Moburrum is said to have peered off quietly in all Tarts of India. Lord ELGIN left Calcutta for Hong Kong, in the steamer Asa, on the 3rd of September. The 23rd Fusiliers had reached that city. It would be idle to indulge in speculation on the condition and prospects of India before the arrival of more detailed information, which cannot now be long delayed. The point on which the public le most anxious to be enlightened is the alleged Mil/. understanding between Sir COLIN COIPBELL and the Supreme Government at Calcutta. It in under stood that, owing to the vexatious control with which he was threatened by the Civil Power in carrying his military plans into execution, 81r Colin, up to the time when the precious mail was despatched, bad declined to take his seat in Council. It is also stated that the civilians of the Supreme Council, in- dignant at Sir COLIN'Y presumption int imaginiig that he knew more of military mitten than Olin had reported to the India Hbose that he harr rived full of " fire, zeal, and ignorance .' Such dissension are ruinous, and must be put an end to. It is alleged by the friend/ of Lord C fNMING that Sir COLIS CAMPBELL has only been tried as a General of Division, not u a Commander-in-Chief: to this it may bit replied, that Lord C.tsNiso has been tried—am a Governor-General--and found :bt Court.

The general seeder will thank re (Flare) for setting before him the fellow'ng brae( outirne of the farts of the "Great Berkeley Came," which created re greet a 'oration tome flve-rod-forty years ago. The late earl, in the autumn of 1784, or the commence mentof 1783, on a visit to Gloucester fro m hie cork at Berko ley, was struck with the charms of Miss Maly Cote, the daughter of a loth.: in that city, and took her to tire with him at Berkeley as his wife.

The question as to the genuine or epurioue cha racter of this document came bekce the Howe of Lords only after the death of the late Earl. The clergyman who was said to have made the entry was then dead, and bin widow deleted that she did not believe it to be in her deceased husband's handwriting. A brother ad the Counter of Berkeley, however, deposed that he wee proont as • witness at the maniere of 1786.

The Presse says in its weekly commercial re view : The movement of affairs continues to be satisfactory In most brindles of industry, but trade is a good deal hampered by the St amity of ready money. Illanuttirere who, have delivered goods at there months' credit find that they mu warmly get a cash payment on account, and aro forced to take bills, which it in very difficult to get discounted. Those who ate the most hostile to the Borves and speculation, ere now obliged to adroit that the tightness which so much checks the development of business is duo to groat measure to the depreciation of the Rents and railway shares. There , - are few tradeonen who ore not holder. of Rents or shares, which they bought at high prices, and could not realise without great toss. A I :.0 would free a great deal of wet-up capital, and would nocciwarily react favour ably upon trade. At the beginning of September, when the Bourse was bettor, tho good effects upon trade were vary perceptible. The facilities of coot muni.vition offered_ by the railways enabled the provincial tradeamen to keep thole stocks low and renew them frequently. They this emiso mimed their capital and were enabled to invitee in thellesisesd In rsilways, reckoning that they could convert their's:arid= into cash whenever they pleased. But the tall at the Bourse has crippled their resources, and many of them, rather then realise a loos, prefer to restrict their business and wait for bills coming due. Tho commencement of cold, wet weather has produced the usual effect upon the side of winter goods, which has been active during the week. Large orders for articles do Tanis are received daily, end especially from Spain. Very large orders for jewellery come from the Isle Bourbon, but we repel to notice that the agents buy only the very chelpeet kind of goods which being sold In the island at an enormous profit, hur t the reputation of the Paris manufacturer& Flour is now as cheap as in the beet years, sad Is so abundant in all the market' that aalee, even at the present low quotations, are not wilily effected. The sister of Verger, the priest who murdered the Archbishop of Paris, appeared yesterday, by counsel, before the Civil Tribunal of the Seine, to answer an application made by a Brazilian named Peres d'Oli veira for an order upon her to deliver into his cus tody an illegitimate child of which he is the father. It appeared that M. d'Oliveira, after having lived for some time with MdUe. Verger, and having had two children by her, had made up his mind to make her his wife. The engagement was broken off in consequence of the dreadful affair of the church of St. Etienne-du-Moat, M. d'Oliveira's feeling being that, although affection and duty combined had reconciled him to an alliance with • per son below himself in point of station and for tune, he could not possibly become a member of the family of a convicted murderer. A quarrel subsequently ensued. M. d'Oliveira's counsel contended that he, hating " recognised" the child as his in the forms prescribed by the French code, had the full rights of a father over it. The coevt, how ever, decided that the custody of an illegitimate child belongsprinio facie to the mother, and that there were no exceptional reasons in the present case for departing from the rule. M. d'Oliveira's application was therefore dismissed, and he was decreed to pay to Mademoiselle Verger SOfr. a month for the main tenance of the infant. A man bearing the ominous name of Carpenticr, the managing director and principal concoctor of the " General Society of Algerian Cmdit," was yester day convicted of swindling, and sentenced to two years' imprisonment. An accomplice, named Lam Inert de Roissy, was sentenced to four months' imprisonment. It appeared that they were both men of straw, and while starting the General So ciety of Credit for Algeria without any capital what ever, had contrived in a most ingenious way to obtain credit for themselves. Numerous victims of their frauds gave evidence. Amongst the witnesses was a Muffle. Roberts, a girl who could scarcely read and write, and who, nevertheless, had amused the considerable sum of 60,000 fr. by gambling at the Bourse. Some surprise was expressed by the court at the fact of a person in her humble condition having so much money. She naively explained that having saved a little and received a present from a respectable friend, she had augmented her capital by buying and selling at the Bourse, geig l-mcriably upon the principle of buying securities when they were cheap and selling them when they were deer- How many old heads would be glad to learn Ikladlle. Roberta's secret! It came to pus that as _ . she had one day realised a large sale of Credit Mobilier shires, and was cowing away from the Bourse with 60,000 fr., her whole fortune, in her pocket, she fell in with Carpentier and de Roissy, who so vaunted the merits of Algerian credit, that they extracted from her the whole of her treasure. This seems to have been the greatest haul they ever made, for immediately afterwards they left a very poor lodging, and lived luxuriously in a handsomely furnished house. I'oor Mademoiselle Roberts will never see a fraction of her 60,000 fr. SPAIN. A postcript to a letter written u the Madrid post was closing, on the 7tb, says it is believed that Bravo Murillo will take upon himself to form a cabinet. Some think the Cortes will be dissolved, but this is not probable. If Bravo Murillo goes boldly to the house att ho head of a new cabinet, he will be sup ported by a large majority. PRUSSIA.

The intense sensation which was created many pant ago by the fret cbscoveey of Oreensere's crime hie even been eorpieecd by the painful feeling which the &moo _ Tery of the mutilated remains at Wsteri;o•bridge — hie raised in the public mind. The mystery which envelopes the whole affair—the certainty which now exists that an elderly woman mutt have borne a principal share in the deed, and that with her, probably, ea man y sethree or four othereWees partaker; In the awful crime, render it a subject of most painful into rert. Daring yesterday afternoon hundreda Rocked to gaze upon the spot where the remains were found, and crowds re mained in the vicinity of Bow-street, evidently in the vain hope that they might hear of some clue having been sseer ' tamed u to the murderers ; but nothing, of cottroo, bus- Find to reward the patient et:Nestle; with which they evidently waited for intelligence. Wo er3l not attempt to impose upon our rewire by safes that the ends of justice may be defeated by premature dis closures, for, unfortunately, beyond the fact that one of the moat horrible murders that have ever stained our criminal annals bee been committed, there is nothing whatever to disclose, and up to the present time not the slightest clue has been obtained as to Its perpetrators. The police base their hopes of their detection—first, on the chance of the clothe" being recognised; secondly, on the ownership of the carpet bag being traced; and, thirdly, upon finding the cabman who drove the woman with her ghastly load to the neighbourhood of Weterioo-bridge on Thursday night. There is not the slightest possibility of recognising the deceased by the remains which are in the hands of the police. In fact, these are nothing more then a pile of bones, on which the mucks and large tendons hug in rugged tatters; all the firth and skin, except • small portion of the breast end under one armpit, having been completely hacked away. Both the thigh, log, and back bones have been sawn a-under, in order, doubticas, to pack them in a small competes in the vestal of beim, in which they have evidently remained from two to three weeks. From these ,elks of humanity, therefore, no clue as to who the dreamed was can be hoped, and, if the awful mime be ever brought home to the guilty persona, It will be as we have said—by means of the clothes, the carpet beg, and the cabmen. The chimer which the former offer are not very strong. The clothes, which have evidently once been good end of superior quality, are so torn, rained with blood, marked with earth end whitewash, and, above all, Do shrunken and altered by long immereion in strong brine, as evidently to have totally changed them from the appearance which they must have presented when clean and new end worn by the unfortunate deceased. they are far from being quite unrecognisable, though at the first glance few would suppose it possible that they were the clothes of a well-dressed gentleman. Experienced balers who have been brought to examine them express a decided opinion that they are of foreign make. From the number of persons who examined them at the Bow-street Police elation on Saturday, anxiously seeking for some trace of missing friends or relatives, it would seem that ruder cue disappearances must be of very frequent occurrence in this metropolis. No les' than eight or nine gentleman went on Saturday read yesterday to the station, each of whom was searching for tome clue to the discovery of persons who, within the last month, without any known reason, have dis appeared, and never ainco been heard of. No one, however, recognised the clothes which were found with the remains. A minute examination of the dress and the condition in which it is at present seems to show at least the manner in which the murder was committed. There are marks of three stabs in the back, between the shoulders, three in the abdomen, and no leas then seven exactly over the region of the heart. All these are clean cuts showing that they must have been inflicted with • double-edged knife, about the thickness of a crown-piece in the centre—a puird-bladed weapon similar to those called Spanish knives. The waistcoat is not pierced, so that it must have been unbuttoned at the time the murder was committed. The trousers, also, most have been partly undone, as they ere ;only punctured in one spot, though the shirt ahows marks of three stabs having been inflicted. if any conclu sion can be founded upon these appearances they would certainly lead to the belief that the deceased must have bren first gabbed from behind, and that then a desperate struggle awned, for the other wounds in the back and abdomen are wide apart, se if the &reliant struck slim and where he could. As the deceased became weaker and offered less resistance the finishing wounds in the heart sneer to have been given with ferocious rapidity. They almoet all lie within the circle of a crown piece, and must therefore have been Bruck as rapidly lithe hand could rise and fall. The beck of the greatcoatarked with white, as if the murdered man had struggled hard with his back against • white or lightly papered wall. After the sr susinatioa had been effected it is supposed that the body must have been left as it fell upon its face for twelve or twenty-four home, as the blood has completely saturated ell the front parts of the dream. The cute, waistcoat, shirt, and trouser, also, are all split down the back in two halves. and the sleeves of the costa ripped open, which leads to the 'apportion that the body must have become perfectly rigid and in a contorted and unnatural position before any attempt was made to remove the dress. The hopes which exist of the carpet bag being traced are founded upon the fact of its being • comparatively new and very peculiar one, with the toads mark of a shopkeeper, a la. Bd." in ink figures on the handle. The bag itself, though nearly new, ie extremely old-fubioned with regard tee form, being nearly three feet deep and two wide; in f set, its great sire end pcul'er appearance would place its I lentifleation by those who had once ern it beyond the p oxtbility of doubt. That ties beg containing the remains wee the one which was carried on the bridge by an elderly woman on Thursday night is distinctly established by the statement of Ethering ton the toll-taker. Etherne t= was himself formerly a constable in the A divi sion, and remarkable for his shrewdness and caution, and this fact, coupled with the peculiar circumstances which he martens, apparently place the accuracy of his testimony beyond a doubt. He states that the woman came from the Middlesex aide of the water, and paid the toll at the western tollgate. Hs took the toll, and saw that she had with her a brown paper parcel tied with cord; it was long, bulky, and apparently heavy. She had also the carpet-beg in which the remains were afterwards found, and which also award full and heavy. His attention waa particularly directed to the women in =sequence of her turning the turnstile twice while endeavouring to get the carpet bag through. He spoke to her about this, said that he would have to pay the money himself, and that she should have been more careful. The woman did not reply, but looked at him steadily while be lilted up the carpet beg for her and placed it on the top of the turnstile. She then muttered something in a very gruff voice to the effect that it could not be helped, took the carpet bag and walked slowly away. As it was thought possible from the gruffness of the voice that it might have been a man in ROINAII'M clothes, Etherington hoe been questioned on this point, bat in positive an to its being • woman, as be sew her face moat distinctly, and furthermore that he remarked she was short even for • women. The police who ere engaged in endeavoneng b penetrate the mystery which surrounds the whole case believe that • womaa as unequal to cam ing • heavy weight as the woman at the btidge evidently showed herself to be mast either have been isolated by male sccomplteea or have diis en to the neighbourhood of the bridge in a cab. Agorae the former supposition Is the fact that none of the police in the vicinity of :Wellington-street have seen persons carrying bundles such as described, though the carpet bag could not have escaped attention and remark had it been so conveyed. On the other hand, the most minute inqub :es have been set on foot among the cabmen throughout the metropolis as to whether any one answering the description of the woman with a carpet bag and bundle, • or any ono at all with a carpet bag and brown paper parcel, was set down in the neighbourhood of Waterloo-bridge en Thursday night. As yet these inquir ice have elicited nothing, though it is rill loped that, as the detail, of the atrocity committed are widely spread, information on this point luny be obtained. TM police are inclined to the opinion that in car of no cab having been employed the murder must have been peeps. tested at some of the houses of ill Jule which are numerous enough almost within a stone's throw of that end of the bridge. • Of course, the meet vague and contradictory rumours have been circulated everywhere as to the discovery of the other portions of the body. Though some of these reports and rumours were in the last degree &beard, they woe all earefally sifted and inquired ioto, and some of than or tally bore and unexpected fruits. We may here mention that the police entertain little hopes of recovering the beide hands, or fast of U.* body. In their opinion them member were in the brown paper parcel taken on to the bridge, ma have been thrown into the river. Every part brit War direly beneath the bridge, ton both the eastern and welters aides, ban been carefully dragged ; but, as might have been
