Ns. . aSsviffia. a fm. LONDON, THURSDAY, iIEPT. 24. Tee country is thoroughly alive to the real magnitude of this Indian crisis. That portion, too, of contemporary history whit* is written for the in struction of Englivl.men by the Continental Press bears equal evidence of • just appreciation of the real importance of the prevent emergency. It is only Government and the supporters of Govern ment who affect to wake light of it. The land is a land of mourners. The heart of this people ia heavy within them, and their faces are can t down by reason of their sorrow, and everywhere they give liberally of their worldly store to alleviate the sufferings of those who, in the heaving' of that great social cataclysm, have been suddenly plunged into the lowest depths of helplessness and ruin. Everywhere there is a manly tone of generous high hearted piety in these meetings which may well make him who reads proud of his country and his kind. There is no affectation of maudlin sentiment —no mock humanitarianism, but &cordial and heart felt expression of abhorrence at those unspeakable atrocities of which our dear ones have been the victims. And combined with this, there is a noble sentiment of self-respecting piety and English jus tice which deprecates all confounding of the inno cent with the guilty, and declares, in a spirit worthy of a peat and GOD-fearing nation, that while swift and unsparing vengeance shall be dealt out on the incarnate fiends who have wallowed in blood, and revelled in pollution ; yet that vengeance shall be no blind and indiscriminate holocaust on the tomb of the slain, bat a solemn act of national justice, inflicted with firm set lips and unsparing arm, in silence and in solemnity, as befits the majestic wrath of a great people, and the sub lime lemons of an ennob:ing faith. To teach these cruel end crouching barbarians the steer, lesson that blood must have blood, is an act which Justice dic tates and Mercy cannot gainsay. It is an act impe ratively demanded by a due regard to the safety in after generations of our countrymen and country women in India. With all the appliances and many of the refinements of civilisation, those who have risen against us in India are savages in heart. The tiger of their owe jungles is not more sleek, and not so cruel. Mercy to the shedders of blood among them weald be a simple mistake. It is a mistake not likely to be committed. Ott this point we entirely concur with the views expressed at Bradford, at Halifax, and a: Bedford. We may lately leave the work of vengeance to those who accomplish the task of victory. It is good to ere the zeal with which the work of contribution is being carried on throughout the land. Abroad, even in quarters the most unexpected, the same spirit is manifesting IN If. That splendid contribution from the Emperor of the FRENCH, which preceded the bent-fiction of our own Sove reign, was an act worthy of the generosity—worthy of the chivalrous nobility with which the great nation across the Channel regards a people with whom her rivalry is so ancient ; her frit ndship so recent, and yet so firm. The donation of 1,0004 from the SuLTAX, which is announced in our Money artiele of to-day, le a tribute scarcely less satisfactory. It not only shows that gratitude between States means some thing better than a mere anticipation of future favours, but it has this additional value, that it will teed to prove throaghtiut the Eastern world that the great Chief of 'elem. the l'adishah at Stamboul, has se sympathy with the mattneers of Delhi or the butchers of Cawspore. Tht Scuts by this overt set dietinetly repitdiates all countenance of the Indian insurrection at en affair of DArew—a rising for the faith—and evinces with kingly inneificencis the reality of hie sympathy for the lerimples vic tims of Musalsm tonicity. Amid all these gratifying sisnithetstionsottoreign end native beneficence, it is inspousibie not to ask why • national eharsitir is not given to this Indian Relief Frad? Why has not the State come forward to invest this subscription • tilt the prestige and unction of a national act ? The People are willing sod sager, bat a National centre and nucleus for their beuvallemt setir ity is sti.l • desideratum. Let the CUMIN of Lord Pitateuron lose no time is taking the hint. Or are we waiting foe an Order in Council .? sod does that Order itself wait on the con venient lessen which shall release the Court from the solitudes Of the Highlands, and dash the plea. sures of deerutalking with the cares of Empire ? Trir Money Market for core weeks past has been very steady, bat daring the last fortnight rather more stringency has been experienced. In Loin bard-street and elsewhere only the best paper can be disooanted at se p. r cent.; is bet, the lead ing bill brokers are not minion, to take even the best bills at this rate ; acid although they am cempraml to do so foe such of their custom= as ocean a list class position in point of credit, they not mfrs gangly carry such bills themselves to the Bank, obtaining mosey there at the moo rate. By thia means they keep op their relations with their high elms customers, although mating little or no profit upon this desorption of paper. For all bills even a shade below the beat more than 6 1 per cent. is charged and this somewhat km choice kind of paper is that upon which the bill brokers at present realise their chief profits, and which they consequently prefer. This state of the market cannot be consi dered unfavourable to the operations of the legitimate trader, for, although the mime of mom is firmly maintained, the requisite accommodation is readily prorarable, and confidence in the general stability of commercial affairs remains strong. It is not high rates of discount so mach as hesitation on the part of lenders that clogs trade and renders the column city anxious, and of such hesitation there is at pre sent no sign whatever. The general commerce of the country is not only progressing stesally, but has attained au unprecedented increase; aid this is a feature of no small significance at a dee when sack great exertions are rendered necessary by the exte* sion of the Indian revolt, and when the nation is at length alive to the fact that a large portion of oar immense Indian territories will have to be absolutely reeouquered from a numerous enemy consisting chiefly of troops carefully trained and equipped by our selves. But whilst the steadiness of trade, and of the Money Market, in face of the financial and other demands arising out of the Indian rebellion, is thus satisfactory, it may be as well to point out several hatues which tend to discourage the hope of au easier State of monetary affairs. Scarcely a doubt flaw be entertained that the rates of discount would bays been considerably lower at the present season bet for the outbreak in India ; whether the reduc tion would have been permanent is more dubious. But, taking affairs as they are, it seems clear that for some weeks to come—arid no one whose opinion is worth having, pretends now a-days to look beyond a few weeks into the future of the Money Market--those persons who based their hopes of case upon the securing of an unde niably fine harvest, must be content to abandon them. That money will continue in good demand until the payment of the dividends, which will take place on the 14th Oct., is certain ; for when trade is brisk there is always on active demand during the few weeks preceding that date. This is the inevi table malt of the influx into the Bank of a large amount of Treasury deposits, by which the general circulation of the country is proportionately con tracted. At the same time, we must not lose sight of the fact that the "other securities" held by the Bank reach already a very large amount. In the last return, extending to the 12th instant, it was stated at 18,664,0321. ; and the return for the week ending last Saturday will doubtless exhibit a large addition under this bead. The total, in fact, reaches a point which, so far as our observation goes, is quite incompatible with any relaxation in the market. With the re lease of the dividends some temporary ease may be experienced ; but it will probably be found that an unusually large proportion of these funds will at once flow beck to the Bank, in repayment of ad vances. In this way mach of the dividend money will be absorbed. There are many persons of judgment who adhere to the opinion that, as the nation will need compa ratively small supplies of foreign grain until next harvest, gold will accumulate in the Bank, leading gradually to an improvement in the Money Market. In the more remote future this view may perhaps be realised, but hitherto the absorption by the Continent of our extensive imports of gold has formed one of the malt remarkable features of the time. Even during the last ten days close upon a million sterling in gold has come to hand from Australia alone, besides some considerable arrivals from other quarters ; yet nearly the whole of this has been, or will be, sent away. More than a million is known to bo still en rota* from Australis, and the subsidence of the monetary panic in New York will probably be followed by a resump tion of specie shipments to this country ; but, look ing at the activity of the Continental demand, at the somparative flatness of the exchanges, which are almost low enough to admit of the transmission of l i gold to the Continent as an ordinary exchange ope ration, and at the difficulty which the Bank of France experiences in keeping up its stock of bal lion, there is scarcely ground for the expectation that the promised accumulation in our Bank will commence yet. The value of money on the Continent, instead of falling, is rising, and this influence, acting on the exchanges, still draws from this country all the gold it can spare. Indeed, the recollection of the mone tary disturbance which set in on the Continent about this date, in the years 1t55,5 and IKiti, is suffi cient to warrant caution, for a comparatively slight upward movement of the Continental markets would probably raise the rate of discount here to G per cent. It is somewhat remarkable that the increased de mand for gold on the Continent is contem poraneous with a positive decrees° in our im ports of silver from that quarter. In the present month—viz , by the packets of the 4th and 20th inst.—the shipments of specie and bullion from Southampton to the Fast have been 1,159,0111.—a large eum,eertsinly; but in August the amount was 1,790,9771. As there is reason to ap. prebend that the shipments in October will equal, if not exceed, those of the present month, we can scarcely hope that the remittances of gold to the Continent will speedily slacken. These various considerations all tend to induce a belief that, what ever may be the course of the Nioney Market months ►ence, the rates of discount will be maintained at filly their present level for some weeks to come.

Lieut.-Colonel Fawcett seconded the motion, and having, as en officer • ho had grown grey in the ranks of the Bengal !army, regretted that the identification which formerly existed between the officer and those be commanded should have been so fearfully eevered, be called attention to the good ser vice that army had performed in times !cone by, and took a rapid view of the history of British India, giving it as his opinion that in the long run the revolt would be found to be productive of the highest advantages. Referring to the ger viees of General Havelock, be mid that in Frazee they would be honoured with a marshal's baton indeed of • good Ke ttles pension of 100/. per annum. The fiction of the East India Company should he done away with, and the Queen proclaimed Emprese of India. The gallant officer concluded his speech by referring to the impoverwhed stale of the Ben gal military fund. Lord Pevr.snar, ILP., supported the resolitlion, and said it was indeed a touching sight to see a nation like England acting as one man, fur the relief of those who had suffered from the atrocities at Cawnpore and Delhi. If them aired nee were without parallel, so WO, in the history . of nations, had been the deal of our renowned and illustnous army. (Hem, beer.) The Sem.s bail never yet encountered the British army. They had engaged with a few regiments, but when they did meet the entire force now marching against them, then wee betide them, for they would hero Wien upon the bowel terrible retribution. Mr. Domeote. M.P., also supported the resolution, which wee Sea speed to. The Rev. lie. WYATT. is proposing the opening of a public eubseription, remarked that India was going through a bloody lostration, the issues of which would however be favourable to her. He hoped that while justice untinetured by revonge was inflicted upon the fiepoyi, public buildings would tee the sake of art be respected, and that when Brinell authority was swain reamed, we should be more forward than hitherto in advancing our religion, as the mend bond of loyalty with which we could bind tbenatime to our ru le . . . Mr. CATT seconded the motion, and in feeling terms alluded to the afflictions autfered by the relatives of the victims of the mutiny resident In this country. The resolution having been adopted. a number of sub uniptimm wen announced; a committee was then formed to carry nut the otdacta of this weeetimg, and the proceedings terminated. LINCOLN. A public meeting, convened by the Mayor of I.in cols, was held yesterday (Wednesday), in the Guildhall of that city, for the of setting on foot • local eutdalp lion in aid of the load for the relief of the sufferers in Ind.. Though only • day's notice had Leen given of the meting, it was well attended by many influential oil {MPS. The Bishop ot LINCOLN was pruent sad propued the first reeolution timed,e of nympatly with the sufferers by the mutinied in ladle, and of horror and indignation at the atm cities perpetrated on our countrymen and countrywomen. In moving this revolution his lordship said—We are not nut hem to discus the difficult hut very interesting question as to the origin of this lamentable revolt—to ask whether its grounds are religious or political—to see whether it can be trend to any deep-seated feeling. of diseslisfactinet an oppressed people; or whether it be nth., t a l l :e mi lespairing effort of • once dominant ram to mover its lost superiority. We need not inquire whether It bait bees excited by undue interference with the eaperuition of the people, or whether, rather, it may hays been emouraged by en undue deference to them, mad POlllll want of that honest, manly bearing which belong' es much to • nation es to an individual—of feulrany avowing what is his own belief, what las himself knows Ito be tree, without endeavouring to edema fe gen diem hero) The matter before us is a very 'Maple one. There are at this Amount thousands of our fallow-countrymen and fallow countrywoman in stiSt&g and distress. They dram our epeth 7 --eo e fl our stmesie : they ahall hare It. (Ap plause.) I fully believe that if the efforts we have made so speedily are esgeferi out judiciously—that if the mamma of represelas ate peeseented, not in an un-Christian spirit of revenge, but with that unswerving jostles which la often the sweat mercy—Omar, hurl—and if that repress eon is followed by measures of amelioration, at that In structed by the errors of the east, we are enabled to carry on at a rapidly-inerauing rate the civilisation and the general im provement of India—l fully believe that happy days sas Ia prayed for our empire that., and that here as ever God by overruling the weakness of evil men is working out hie own great purposes of good. But this must net only be • work of time it eau only be accompliehed, as all good worke are, by great self-merifiee and self suffering. It may be that the regeneration of India can only be accomplished by • baptism of blood. However this may be, at any rate there must be abundance of want and raffling to require our self-denying aid. It was with this I souviction that I ventured, at the beginning of the present I month, to issue a circular to the clergy suggesting the pro priety of making collections in their respective paes. This I mention only to state that I have received accounts from various perishes relating the great liberality with which even agricultural labourers have cane forward to contribute their mites for their guttering brethren. I am sure that the citizens of Lincoln will not be behind their neighbours in the country, and that here at least we ghat be able to make a good return, showing that we feel the urgency of the present emergency—that we feel we owe a duty to our fallow-ooun trymen and to Him in whose hands the Bane of the conflict Ides, and that we are ready to mike a eacriflce of our worldly goods for the ataiatance of those who are sufering, it may be said, for our sake. (Applause.) Before the meeting separated about 2601. was subscribed, the mayor (N. Clayton, Egq.), and the bishop, each putting down his name for 24/. A committee was appointed to can vale the town for further subscriptions. BRISTOL. A public meeting ~ of citizens, convened by the Mayor, John Vining, Esq., was held yesterday, at the build hall, Bristol, for the purpose of expressing sympathy with our suffering fellow-countrymen in India. The Mayor pre sided, and in opening the proceedings explained the eircum elancee which had prevented him from convening the meet ing at an earlier period. He was happy in believing that the cause had not suffered by the delay, so an intimation which ho gave through the papers had enabled him to obtain over 600/. Since he had been in that hall be had bad placed in his hands, tram Henn. Mills and Co., 100 L. C. H. Price,lol.lol.., Henry Prltebsrd, 201. • Meters. T. and H. Proctor, 201. ; CoL Smith, 101. ; and °then sums. J. 8. Heimann EN., moved a resolution expressing Indignant abhorrence of the late barbarous outrages in British India, and deep sympathy with the unhappy sufferers there. M. D. HILL, Esq., in seconding the resolution, defended the justice of British rule in India, es likewise its mercy. He need not defend every set of the BritiA government, bat, se a 'camel remark, be asserted that that rule had been the rule of Justice, humanity, and forbearance; and were the Almighty disposer of events to overthrow that rule to-morrow the consequence would be more calamitous to the 300 millions of India than to the thirty millions of the British Empire. Mr. Hill alluded in glowing terms to the brilliant achievement of British arms, and to the strong claims which the sufferers had upon the sympathies of this kingdom. He expressed hie confidence that England would regain all that she had lost, and instanced the difficulties she had surmounted, when her cause was not more jest than at present and her resources fox less. The Rev. II 1. ROPER supported the resolution. The resolution was adopted, and the Mayor announced that he had received from Mr. Jose 201., from Mr. J. 8. Harford SOL, Masers. H. 8. and J. Bridgete 301., Mr. Bat tersby Harford 101., it we. announced that the working men were arranging machinery for collecting their subscrip tions; and • vote of thanks to the Mayor closed the pro. ceedings. CLERKENWELL Last evening a numerously attended public meet ingot the inhabitants of Clerkenitell (convened in pursuanue of a requisition to the churchwardens) was held at the Pare • chial School•monta, Amwell-street. The I:vt UKBENT VII called to the chair. The proceedings having been opened by prayer, The CHAIRMAN said be prided himself on having been always a loyal man, and ae such there was no one who felt more keenly the disasters wbah were now befalling us in India. Ho felt highly honoured at being called on to prerids on that occasion. He was happy to my that they bad upon that platform the representatives of all denominations of Cluiatians, anxious to render both their expresaions of sym pathy sad a portion of their aubstanee in befriending the sufferers in India. (Hear, hear.) It gave him great pleasure to know that her Majesty bad ordered a day of humiliation, upon which one mighty national prayer would be offered to the Almighty for His powerful aid In the present struggle. The Rev. Mr. TIIIIRPAHY, of Spafields Chapel, mid they were not net for the purpose of inquiring into the nuns wbii h had given rive to the Indian mutinies; the sole object of the meeting being to consider the best mode of giviag relief to the sufferers—and to such a work he con sidered it the duty of all to take a part—either by giving pecuniary assistance, or by enrolling themselves in the army, for the purpose of putting down such a heartless and savage horde as were for the time ding holding to in defiance. (Hear, hear.) He hoped that there would be general con gregational collections in the various churches and chapels in the pariah, so that all might have an opportunity of sub scribing something. Ho concluded by moving the first re elution t--" That this meeting desires to etyma its deepest sympathy with our fellow-countrymen in India, and cannot help recording its strong indignation at the treachery and cruelty of the revolted Sey regiments." The Rev. W. W tioru Onemmisnot of St. Philip's) seconded the resolution. Whatever differenoe of opinion could pca aibly have been entertained as to the justice of the Russian war, upon the occasion of which this country had shown Judi true patrottima towards our suffering troops, there could not be a question a. to the right and justice of the war la which we ore now engaged; and he could not believe that less patriotioto and fovltng would be shown on thl i restint occasion towards *olio inge that had never bees equal led. The resolution was carried unanimously, as were others P the meeting to contribute liberally in aid ci those wroev r e been east upon public sympathy by the India* troubles. _ . eubecriptiony amounting . to nearly 60/., ems an nounced, besides which a liberal oolleclion was made at the doors.

ARRIVAL OF FUGITIVES FROM DELHI AND LUCKNOW.-ALARM AT CALCUTTA. (DT ILWTkIO ♦DD INTERNATIONAL SELLOUT tt) (rim ova OW col SOUTHAMPTON, TstasDAT. The Colombo has arrived with the heavy poi don of the India, China, and Australian mails. The Colombo left Alexandria, September 12th; Malta, 12th ; and Gibraltar, 19th. She has on board 4,8001. in specie, and a cargo of gam, silks, shawls, tte. . _ She has brought nearly 180 passengers. Amongst them are about sixty children. A number of the passengers ale refugees from Delhi, Lueknow, and other mutinous parts of India. The Colombo is now anchored off Netley abbey; it being low water she is unable to come into dock. The Lady Mayoress, from London, and the Mayor of Southampton proceeded early this morning down Southampton Water to the Colombo, to welcome the refugees from India, and to render them any assistance that might be necessary. Scores of people were assembled in the docks to see the passengers by the Colombo land. The scenes in the docks at the meeting of friends were affecting in the extreme. Many of the ladies were hurried out of Lucknow and Delhi at the commencement of the mutiny and do not know what has become of their husbands. They hare eaten d great hardships; many of them made their escape almost naked, and were nearly starved in the jungle. A little dog is on board the Colombo, belonging to Colonel Goldney, whose life was sought by the mutinous &pop. The dog is covered with wounds. It escaped from Delhi with Mrs. Goldney, who is on board the Colombo. Colonel Lennox, wife, and daughter are amongst the passengers. The colonel belonged to the 22nd Regiment at Fyzabad, in Code: only a sergeant of Artillery and the colonel escaped. The passengers give a frightful account of the state of Calcutta and the upper provinces of India. The only troops left at Ceylon were Malays and Sepoys. All the European troops have gone off to Calcutta. The fugitives report being all well treated by the merchants at Calcutta, and supplied with money to send them on immediately on the Colombo's arrival. Captain Field received a letter from the Relief Fund Committee, through the Peninsular and Oriental Company, authorising him to render the passengers every relief and assistance. EXPRESS FROM PARIS. (TILOW OUR OWN COLINITONDEXT.) PARIS, WEDNYSDAT EVENING. None of the programmes of the Emperor's depar ture from Chalons and progress to Stnttgardt pub lished by the semi-official journals have been exactly correct, changes in the itinerary having been made from day to day at head-quarters. It is certain, however, that his Majesty actually left the camp to day ; and it is of little importance whether the hour was twelve o'clock or two. His first halt on the railway was to be at Commercy, famous for sponge cakes, which he doubtless condescended to taste before or after reviewing the 7th Lancers and 4th Dragoons in garrison there. At Nancy, the smiling capital of Old Lorraine, 600 or 700 old soldiers of the empire wearing the St. Helena medal were to be assembled at the station. His Majesty was expected to arrive at Luneville at half-put five. Luneville is the head quarters of a division of cavalry now commanded by General de Orammont. Apartments have been prepared for his Majesty in the barracks, which more than any other building of the kind in France is adapted for a royal sojourn, since k was formerly the palace of Stanialas—the good king, whose memory ill yet adored in Lorraine. A military dinner party of thirty is arranged for the evening. To-morrow the Emperor will review the gunison, consisting of the 2nd, 4th, sth, and 11th regiments of dragoons, and then, about noon, will set out for Strasburg, where it is now said (the semi-private reception being altogether ignored) he will be received "with great pomp." Although some of the latest cor respondence affirms that his Majesty will go direct to Stuttgardt from Strasburg, in order that a sojourn in any other state of Germany than that of War temburg may not caw* jealousy, and diminish the signification of the main purpose of his journey, I believe be will stay at least some hours at Baden. Baden, and breakfast with his relative the Grand Duchess Stephanie. He will arrive at Stuttgardt in the afternoon of Friday. The Duke of Cambridge, accompanied by Lord Burgher& and Colonels Clifton and Maude, arrived in Paris yesterday from the camp of Chalons, and alighted at the I lotel Vouillemont. His royal high ness is, I believe, going, or perhaps gone, to pay visit to Lord Cowley at Chantilly. Count Walewski, Minister of Foreign Affairs, ar rived yesterday at Paris from Biarritz, and has since left for the camp of Chilons. Count de kisseleff, Russian ambassador at the court of the Tuileries, has left Paris for Stuttgardt. It is stated positively that the Chilons camp will not be raised till October 1.1, and perhaps not till the 25th. At all events, 26,000 blankets have just been sent there from Paris, and there is a talk of fresh contracts for provi sions and forage. One correspondent writing from the camp says that the Empress will pus some days there after the Emperor's return from Germany. This is not at all unlikely. The Empress leaves Biarritz on the 26th of September, and, as that is the day fixed for the Emperor's leaving Strasburg, it is probable that their Majesties may have arranged to meet at the camp. Marshal Canrobert gave up his tent to the Duke of Cambridge, and occupied one of a simple officer. The Bourse has been much better today, and bushier* was decidedly animated towards the close, The Rente rose Sc. for cash and 30e. for account, closing at 67fr. and 671 r. 20c. Mobilier rose 50fr. Discounts of Mobilier shares continue to be placarded and increase in amount daily ; 2,600 shares were posted to-day. There were also discounts announced of 450 Orleans shares, 200 Northern, and 100 Western. It appears that some of these operations are effected for the account of buyers, who desire to convert their shares into nominative ones, and to have them delivered before the 30th instant, and thus avoid paying the mutation duty. The railways were all higher. Shares in the lines discounted were naturally scarce. Orleans rose 22fr. 50c.1 Northern, 2fr. 50e.; Western, 3fr. 75c.; Eastern, 16fr. ; Lyons, 71r. We.; and Southern, 7fr. 30c. A Paris correspondent of the Independence Belge professes to that wroft lasi m tra eminent Englis h de Eng ied lishtmeffe member of 4 career as a diplomatist is terminated. He will be treated, it is said, with all possible tenderness, and his recall will be disguised under the form of a I TILE EXITESS, TM] RSDAY EVENTeilit, • S PTE M BER 24, VW.
