It is time that Mr. John Murray, of Albemarle street, should depute Mr. Peter Cunningham or some other intelligent gentleman to compile a good hand book to tbu inland. Weds, or, to drop classicality, the We of Wight, is too favourite a resort for thou. sands of pleasure and health seekers to be left to the descriptive mercies of a well-meaning but feeble old gentleman whose principal bout is that he has been a resident far forty years, and whose Guides, of various sizes and prices, are chiefly remarkable for the badness of their grammar, the vagueness of their description, and their general literary shortcomings. The " Pleasure Visitor's Companion to the Isle of Wight," which I have now before me, reads like the narrative of a tour written by an enthusiastic old maid and revised by Sylvanus Urban, containing an amount of forcible feebleness, italicised nonsense, and unintentionally diluted extravagance now seldom met with. And yet there are few places that could offer a better field for the display of the peculiar genius nsoessary for handbook-writing than this small island, teeming, es it is, with natural beauties, and by no means lacking in interesting antiqua rian and historic associations. But as no such work is at present in existence, and as there may be many of your readers who, while not caring how many hundred inhabitants contains, or whether has been in the hands of the Emily ever since the Norman conquest, might yet wish to have some original jottings about the island and those places in it which they well know by name, I send you the result of my own observations—premising, lest disappointment may arise and feelings be shocked, that (in the words of what would be a very good commercial traveller's sentiment) " the cobweb* of Conventionality will be I brushed away- by the besom of Truth," sad my literal cxpenences narrated in defiance of all the ro mantic nonsense ever talked about the island by honeymooning couples, or people with even less ex cuse for folly. Arriving then at Ryde, after a four hours' jour ney, including the sea passage, from London, you find the Ryde population gathered at the head of a particularly overgrown pier, and your first notions are that Hyde is • superior kind of Ramsgate. Thia is not the case; the regular inhabitants are thoroughly " genteel," retired navy officers, or their widows and families, forming the principal portion of the resident population, while the visitors are a special clam—the yachting men, their admirers, imitators, and would-be ensnarers. Their craft, per fect in the neatness of their rig, and the general cleanliness and trimness of their appearance, lie off the pier ; while on the pier, whenevet not actually on board, are to be met the members of thesquadron. Pleasant it is to see those old gentlemen, whom you knew only as Pall-mall pacers, Regent-street loungers, and club-window fillers, now turned out in snits of heavy blue, with the club button, stiff glazed wads-awakes stuck on their poor old white heads, sad with their mouths and nostrils endeopen, to gasp at and inhale that fresh air which is to give them health and strength for the next sea are's campaign. Pleasant is it to see the paths swells vainly endeavouring to assume a nautical roll, a laisan-aller air, vainly endeavouring to drop the buckram of swelldom and the haw haw hauteur, which is now supposed to be a requi site qualification for a gentleman, and which, by the wa,v is much oftener assumed and carried further catty an ennobled manufacturer or a tuft-hunting lawyer than by the descendant of the Plantagenets. The seeker of quiet and rest will not remain at Ryde, which is necessarily towny and feebly gay; he will do better to proceed at once to Veotnor, the coach for which place starts from the end of the Ryde pier, and which he will reach after a two hours' drive on a regular old.feshioned stage coach, behind four excel lent horses, and through the most lovely scenery— Beading, gandown, Shank lin, and Boncliurch—three mean lovely spots, but I would recommend Ventoor for headquarters, inasmuch as it is much more central, and, while thoroughly quiet and retired, possesses accommodation in shops and other necessaries of existence such as the other places have not. For those who want rest of mind end body, who are thoroughly done up with their twelvemonths' Lard work, and who fly from London requiring quiet, though unable to bear dulness, Ventnor is exactly the place. You will have heard that the heat is insupportable here, that there is no air, fro., IL:c.; believe it not, for though sheltered from the east wind by the large hill in whose shadow it is built, the town is open to every other breeze, and on any of the surrounding cliffs you can always obtain air enough to render a beaver-catcher accessary for your hat. - Established here, then, you will eery well while away a few days in bathing, walking, idling, and criticising your neighbours, whom you will find to be my superior to the ordinary run of watering-place frequenters, consisting principally of families, and among them are to be found many foreigners. Ventnor is not a single-man's place ; there is no pro menade, no band, no set hours for doing anything and meeting everybody, and, to tell the truth, there are very few pretty girls. We abound in children of all shapes and sizes, in fresh young blooming mammas, venerable silver-haired grannies, papas stout and middle-aged or young and dashing, and round-hatted griffins in the shape of old maids innu merable, but of nice girls there is a lamentable scarcity. This, however, though a serious one, is Ventner's only shortcoming, fur it has beautiful scenery, excellent bathing, capital shops, and pure air; is easily arrived at and departed from, and is, in short, as good a specimen of a pleasant, quiet meted@ place as it has been my good fortune to meet Here, indeed, you might verily pass the entire time you have allotted yourself for holiday-making, were it not for those terrible people who insist upon your seeing the " lions," and some of whom arc to be found is every party. Away, then, to St. Law rence. where there is a well of flabby, lukewarm water, tasted and pronounced " delicious" by every tourist, fur dire conventionality's sake; past titeephill Castle, • modern castellated building with a kind of " property" posters gate and a general act-drop Grieve and Telbin-ish appearance; past pretty Niton, where there is a lighthouse, to " go up" which I declined, to the astonishment of my fly-driver, as it is evidently a recognised duty of visitors; past the whole length of that wondrous Cndereliff, unlike anything in the world wakes it be slices of broken pound cake with thin layers of jam between them, to Illackgang. Here is the celebrated Chine which, of cone*, you will intend to go down, and to you I can but repeat the memorable advice of Punch to persons about to marry—" Don't." It isa greet labour, with no result ; no, dine quietly at the hotel, where they will treat you capitally ; after dinner stroll, cigar in mouth, to the edge of the rent rock, and, looking on worn and bested persons who have been rewarded for an hour's toil by the sight of a fissure in a hill's side, you will thank me for this advice. Other places to be seen are the Needles, Alum Bay, and Carisbrook Castle. There is no coach or public conveyance to Alum Bay, and you most ac cordingly hire a carriage and make • two days' trip of it, sleeping one night at the Needles Hotel, at Alum Bay. or at Freshwater, where you have the choice of two hotels. Everybody has seen pictures and read accounts of the famous Needles, and each succeeding writer about them has piled a small piece on to the agony of wonder and delight indulged in by his predecessor; but to speak the simple truth, I must enact Sir Charles Coldstream over again, and declare that I "sew nothing in them." Two large pieces of rock sticking up in the sea at a short distance from the land, broad at the base and jagged at the top, and no more like needled than candlesticks, may be very wonderful objects, end it may be owing solely to my obtuseness that I am enable to perceive their beauty. Alum Bay, however, is really worth a visit. Thence doom all that parti-aolourefi sand which is made up into various shape., and sold in bottles, and the effect of the sunlight upon the red, yellow, green, brown, and slate-tinted rocks is very beautiful, reminding one strongly of the sunset on the Grands Motets, as seen at the Egyptian-hall. The route from Alum Bay to Cariabrook take* you past Farringford, where readies Allred Tennyson. The house strode No far back as to be invisible from the road (which must be a great comfort for the laureate, Mho would else have innumerable visitors poking their !ods, as I did mine, over his privet hedge.), but the grounds—. A cameo red garden. Close to the ridge of a noble down— looked Tiny pretty and tbm. ughly English. In another verse of the poem from which I have quoted, the Invitation to the It :v. F. I). Maurice, he exactly describes the situation of Farrint: l l— roves of pine ea either To bred the blest of svintir, 4 • And farther on, the hoary Casio' Tumbles a banker .a clad% .ad se•J. Everyone well acquainted w ith Tennyson's writ ing will have noticed how the spirit of the scenery which he has depicted has changed, from the "glooming fiats," the "level waste," where " stretched wide and wild the waste enormous marsh," which were the reflex of his Lincolnshire observation, to the beautiful meadow and orchard, thoroughly English ruralities of the " Gardener's Daughter" and "The Brook." Many glimpses in the neighbourhood of Farringford will call to mind descriptive pussies in these last-named poems. Those who have seen Warwick, Kenilworth, Battle, or any of our stock "show" castles and abbeys, will not think much of Cariabrook. There is, of course, the regular business of keep, battlements, 11:c., but nothing specially remarkahle, except swell, 300 feet deep, the water from which is drawn by a large treadwheel worked by a donkey. Never was ass so ignominiously treated or so held up to the morn of the lookers-on as this beset, which walks into the wheel and starts its treadmill with an evi -1 dent notion, while not varying its position one inch, that it is m aking vast progress and getting over a great quantity of ground. Cariabrook is, moreover, the home of martyrdom, and the moment an unfortunate stranger sets foot in the place be is marked out for destruction. More over, hie the animalcule in the microscope at the Polytechnic, fight among themselves the touts on the outside of the Castle wall, warn you of imposition which, they meet, will be practised upon you within. There is a curious anomaly at this place ; the gate is opened to you, and the principal portion. of interest ere described in the usual cut-and-dried nasal twang by two young ladies, perfect ladies in dress and address, with round hats and the tightest fitting Jouvin glove., who tout for your shilling, and take it too, with all the greed of old house keepers at show-houses. Such are a few of my impressions of Vectis—a place which I hope often to look back to with plea sant recollection amid "the dust and drouth of London life," to which I am returning. Y. THE DRAMA. SURREY. A " new grand romantic play," called Ambition : or, the Throw mud tee Tani, wee produced with ilUM•121111 'u M. at this theatre lan *anis& The heroine is Cathe rine Howard, the uofortunate Queen of Henry the Eighth, whine history is treated after a very original fashion. Cathe rine is a beautiful damsel of low degree, privately married to Ethehrold, Rol of Derby, • courtier, who haa fallen in love with her and made her his wifo, while she line In retirement doormat of the rank of her husband. The King, who has already got rid of four wave., having sea her by accident, after his fashion falls doleally la lees with her, and give. Rthelwold a confidential corwairion to bring her to court. The Earl endeavours to keep his wife from the King by giving ber • ilaping draught which throws her into • rate resembling death, sod be her buried for the ass (like Juliet) in his emu family vault. The lady, however, takes • different dew of the matter from her husband. Raft of ambitions theme, her conjugal love is swallowed up in her eager de sire to become a Queen. Thy engraving parkin utterly depraves ber, and ea at length gains bee object of obtaining the King's had, abler having sides vowed to get rid of her husband by the sacrifice of bis life The husband escapes ; and, after her marriage with the Kira, haunts her on all °canons like as avenging spectre, and at l ength bring. her to the ecaffold. On the eve of her execu ,ion she bribes the executioner to disappear, in the desperate hope of gaining time to implore the King's mercy; but ber husband appears and destroys this hope, by announcing that he himself will corm Ibrward and do the duty of hadantaa. He appear. accordingly on the =gold, having Ora swallowed poison. in order tat he may f,llow to the tomb her whom he still love. At the moment when he is to strike the blow, be rushes from the aaffuld exclaiming that he cannot do it, and immediately falls sad supine. Catharine utters a scream of joy for her rape ; but, to bee horror, the fugitive executioner, who hoe been pursued and brought back, suddenly makes his appearance, and es be mounts the scaffold the curtain falls. Thaws are only a few of the principal incidents of this most wild sad extravagant drama, which will certainly not bear criticism. )(eas•red, however, by the ruburbea solo- dramatic stands d, it is entitled to • (evadable judgment, kr it is latter written than ems► things getwmily are and eons of the incideets end situations are effective and startling. The performance, too, ia above the common run of melodramatic acting. /4r. Creswirk's acting, In the part of the Earl of Derby, is more than melodramatic ; he frequently display. tragic genius of a high order. Miss Khania, who personated Catherine Howard, hoe likewise considerable tragic power, but her action is violent and exaggerated. Mr. Buil Potter looks and ode bluff King Ilia very well; and the subordinate puts are respectably sustained. The gloominesss of the subject is attempted to be relieved by some comic owns,, in which. knot of cttisena, ales the manner of Shalispeare, make their comments (meant to be humorous) on the state of affairs. They are dull clowns, huwevir, and make up for their lack of wit by language which I/1 often offensively grans and even in decent. The piece is got up in a manner which deserves the highest proles, and is, indeed, one of the most splendid spatulas we bare our um in this theatre. The house wee crammed to the doors ; the applause wee lucemat, and the curtain fell mill shoots end aeclesetioes.

The employers of labour were strongly urged to encountge th;. novenn set, by prnmottng and &deeming the interests of throe young men who had occupied their leisure butts by regular attendance at the classes. A discussion took Soo co the different points advanced by Mr. Buckrooter. In which Mr. Courtauld. the Rev. Mr. Davie, and other leading gentlemen sod working men, took part.

The following is an extract from a letter of an after in the Thd Bengal Native Infantry, one of the very few that have not yet mutinied. The headquarters of tho regiment mat Jamelpore ; there an only have been a de tachment at Jet • town near the Bhutan frontier, 62 mike north of " Jelpinorre, July SO. " We have been • little unshed lately in coneequence of a v mnovery that there were some 12 or 16 men in the regiment • tie wen dispelled to mutiny, and, if ble, kill theft Ai . m. We et alter arteeted the ringWde s, tried them by coertemertial, sad sent them to the gaol heavily ironed. '1 be paving OS of irons in almmt the greatest indignity n Itch ma be offered to a high mats thipoy, so we naturally telt anxious during and after the priori*. How ever, ell wait smoothly, and they are now on their way to Calcutta. After this we breathed a little more lively, but the sequel will show how nearly we brought the storm on our own heads. A day or two after information was broght us lity a faithful Popo) , that two men bad been to him, regretting that they could 094 get up a party to attack the officers at man; they sneered themselves as ready to do so if they could induce three more to join them. Our informant pre reload to join them. The next day they got their party eugnientA to sin, end made their arrangement, for that very evening ; they were to have • boat wetting on the river, which runs elms under the mesehonse, to arks • dash at the officers while at droner, jump into the heat, end strii Ito Photon. They dared not trust themselves as this es the regiment would not join therm We beard a ll this just se we were going to a grand entartainmeat given by our regiment to the Inegular Cavalry. We thought it better to go, and we therefore went. We remained three boars in the midst of them all, knowing that some few were miatemplating oar murder In the evening.. Up to this time we bad bed no opportunity of coneninag a• to what wee to be done ; in het nothing wee settled till I stunted my horse, and went down to the lines in • tremendous storm of rain. I had the whole parry arrested. They were taken up by &Nye, guarded by them all night, and pecked off by them in • boat next morning for Calcutta " This means to prove fully that we may rely on the regi ment as a body ; they never would Imes imprisoned their own companinne had anything hie a mutinous spirit been rife among than." PHILLOUR. The following particular, regarding the 3rd Bogs! Native; lafsatry stationed at Phi Lour are from the dicer commanding. who entered disservice in 1820, end hats sever boa out of India since • " Simla, July 23. "ne 'manta in the paper. regarding the mutiny mks yea anew on oar awning; 1 therefore send a line to say w• ate safe here. It would take a volume to tell you all we have gems through. •• 1 mold have marmged my own regiment had not the thew regiments at Jullundur—vie., the 6th cavalry, 36th sad filet Native Infantry, mutinied, and bales back on us. The telegraph wires were cut, so I got no information of the Jullundur corps coming our way till they were aimed on our parade. I got my family and the familia. of all the European. then in cantoomente off to the fort, which had latterly been garritoned by 100 men of her Msjeety's Bth Feet. "On going to parade I found the officers mold not pt the men to turn out and form in any numbers, and as feet se they got • few here and there others went beck to the lines. Seeing the CY@ was hopeJees, we retired to the fort, myself and °the officer" ou foot. Our men had always said, ' Happen what would, not One of us should be hart while they lived.' This is all I cen say for my men ; they kept their word, fler, bed thry liked, they could have mur dered every ma, woman, and child before I got them out of the cantonments. 011 reaching the fort I found everyone este. A few days after, the &wiles of all officers were ordered off to the hills, and I arranged for my wife and children coming hen. A few days later I got • letter from the general, 'eying that ea the fort was garrisoned by her Iffmeety's corps, be wished the command to rest with the officer of that regiment, and as my carps woe gone I might proceed on leave, so I followed my family.

For day. before the mutiny all but a few who would not see knew what was coming, and I asked Rajah Man Singh to take charge of the women and children ; which he at mice agreed to do. " Soon after the beginning of our troubles an order came front LACIRIOI/ to arrest Man Singh —. 0— was at Imbed, end he carried out the order in spite of my urgent rememennote and written protest. I gut penniasion to release him just in time, and started the ladies off to Shaligonj. Mos. Lennox and her daughter, Mra. Morgan, and Mn. Mill (she intended to go at lint), remained at Fyeabad. The very next night I think the tr oops mutinied. The Invokes (15th Irregular Cavalry, one troop) were very bed—mated to murder every officer. The Artillery and 6th Oede Irregulars were aim bad; the 22nd Regiment Bengal Native Inhintry the least bad of all. After a long altercation It was determined that the officers should be allowed to go. They went off in boat., but just opponte Begamganj they were seen by the 17th Regiment Native Infantry, mutineers from Armighur, who gave chase, and here poor Goldeey, Bright, and a sergeant appear to have been shot, Mill, Currie, and PllllOl. drowned, having left the boats and attempted to escape inland. The rest of the part got to the Tehaildaree of Kuptamguni, where they were well treated, and received 50 rupee. to prosecute their journey to Goreckpore. At a large bazaar, called Malts dews, a large body of armed men sallied forth, and, without the slightest provocation, nit the unfortunate fellows to please. Here English, Lindesay, Cautley, Thomas, and Ritchie, with two marginate, fell. One Artillery sergeant (Boehm') alone escaped. Another party — U' Brien, Gordon, Canon, Anderson, and Percival—clianged their boat and got a covered one at Ajoodbia ; they lay prdo, and were not Warned by the 17th Regimeet Nstivelafantry. Hiding in the daytime and travelling at night, they managed to reach Gepalpore, in the Goruckpore district, where a power ful Ilajah took them under his protection and for warded them to Dinapore. A third party consisted of Morgan and his wife, Fowls, Ouaeley, and Daniell. They were robbed, imprisoned, and suffered great hardehipe, almost starvation, but they, too, eventually es caped. I wait now return to my own party. The troops mutinied on the night of the Bth, but did not tome down to the city till the morning of the oth of June. Orr and Thur. bare slept at toy gateway—Bradford, being obstinate, slept at the Dilkocelia. We had about 100 armed invalids. We tried to rains levies, and with Men Singh's co-operation, might have succeeded. As It was, we failed.

We at first intended to go I. Shabgunj, but, fearing the sowers, who were most bloodthirsty, I turned off as soon aa we got out of sight and made for 'tamper*, but finally went to Goerreh.

The following letter is from a gallant young hero, who only four years ego wee • pupil in the Edinburgh Academy : " Camp Wore Delhi, July 19. " My dew Jack—Here we are, still going on in the same way, besting back the Psndies' attacks; and this is all we ,an do until we get reieforoements. You must have seen accounts of their rush into our tamp on the 9th; it was a very bold thing; eu much so, that when they were in they were taken quite aback at their audacity. Illy guns were ridden over before I could get them into action, and I was very nearly polished off, Tombs wiring my life by potting • Bandy who was in the act of splitting my skull. I Ina down on the ground, regularly done up, wit bout a single thing to defend myself with. I have got great kudoe for my conduct. This is it : the storm went, and off I started with my two guns to a position laid down for them, when, to my astonishment, through an opening on my right, only 60 yard. of, dashed a body. of cavalry . Now I tried to get my gun. into action, but only got one unlimbered when they were upon me. I thought that by charging them I might make a commotion, and glee the run tittle to load. So in I went at the front rank, cut down the first fellow, slashed the nest acmes the fee se hard as I could lick, when two Sowers charged me. Both their horses crashed jou- mine at the same moment, and of course both horse and mrelf were nest II) tag. We went down at y such • pace that I escaped the cuts made at me. one of them giving my jacket en awful slice just below the left arm—it only, however, cut the jacket. Well. I lay quite mug until all the beggars had ward over nA., and then got up and looked about for my sword. I found it full tee yards off. I had hardly got hold of it. when three fellows re turned—two on horseback. The &at I wounded, and drop& him from his horse; the seemed cher= me with • lanerroel pat it adds, and awiW an awful gash en the head sad face. I t t I had killed p hi r rn e : ye aparently he must have clung to hie for he dim . The wounded Man then came up, but got his ski I split. Then came on the third man—a young active fellow. I found myself getting very weak from want of breath, the fall from nip horse having pumped me considerably, mud my cloak somehow or other had got tightly fixed round my throat, and was kindly choking me. west, however, at the fellow, and cut hint on the ehoulder ; but some ' kapra ' (cloth) on it apparently turned the blow. He managed to seise the hilt of toy sword, and twisted it out of my hand; end then we had a hand-to-hand fight, I punching his head with my flsta., and he trying to rat me, but I was too clues to him. Somehow or other I fell, and then was the time, fortunately for me, that Tombs came up and shot the fellow. I was so choked by my cloak that more I could not until I got it loosened. By-the-bye. I forgot to say I fired at We chap twice, but the pistol snapped, and I was so enraged I drove at the fellow's head, miming him, however. Then, when I got up, Tombs wady, eager to get up to • mound near us that I only picked up my sword and followed him. After being there some time we came down again to look after the unlimbered gun which was left behind. When we got down I saw the very man Tombs had saved me from moving off with my pistol (the brute had only bean wounded and shammed &ad). I told Tombs, and we went at him. After a little slashing and guarding on both sides, I rushed in at him and thrust; he cleverly jumped aside and cut me on the head, knocking me down, not however stunning me, for I warded hit next cut when down. Tombs following him up made him pain, and up I jumped and had a slash at him, tutting him on the left wrist, nearly savoring It. This made him turn round, and then Tombs ran him through. He very nearly knocked over Tombs, for be cut through his upend porde, but fortunately did not even cut the skin. I fancy I am indebted again to Tombs for my life, for, although I might have got up and taught, mill I was bleeding like a jig, and of course would have had a bad chance. One thing, however, If Tombs had not been there the second time I should have fought more carefully. It was the wish to polish off the fellow before Tombs could get up to him that made me rush at him in the way I did. I wanted awfully to bone the swords of the men I killed se trophies, bat I was getting very faint and had to come Into my test as fast as I could end before I got the wound bound up the swords had been looted off. I lost an awful lan .f blood, as two veins were cut through, but I fancy it did me good, keeping off infiaimma- Moe. The wound was a beautiful one, just as if it had been done by a razor. It was four Inches long, and down to the skull, a line being left on it ; so I had a marrow escape. However, if I live to see the end of these mutinies, I shall have good reason to thank the • Sower, • for their charge, Tombs' name and mine having been sera up to the Governor-General by the Com mander in -Chief, the latter recommending us ' worthy of the highest honour for distinguished bravery and gallsntry.' isn't this doe, old boy P —worth a cut on the hes& I think, especially a. it has healed up, and now I only require to recruit my strength to he fit for duty. This I hope to be in a week or two. Wounds on the head, they say, tell on one some time after they are healed and, as the sun is not to be resisted at any time, I ass afraid I shall not be allowed to try the effects of it for some time yet. If these horrid Cora bineers had only charged, the • Sowers' would have caught it in style. Our cavalry, lam sorry to say, have not dis tinguished thenmelem, though they have itad some good opportunities, but never one like that morning. They would have got these fellows In flank, and sent them to awful grief, ineread of which they bolted (cowardly hounds), leaving not only me and nip guns to look miter ourselves, but their offi cers also, who ehouted to them to charge.—Your affectionate brother, "J.
