I can best describe the aspect of affairs at that station by extracting from a letter received this morning from an occasional correspondent who has been through the entire campaign. He writes: "We are doing literally nothing at present. Since the 6th inst., a fine force of Europeans has been sitting down, taking it pretty easy. The why and the wherefore is a puzzle to everybody. Some say Sir Colin and the Governor-General are not quite of the same mind as to the best course and plan of ope rations to be pursued ; but our chief (Sir Colin) keeps things very close, which of course is all proper, and no one knows anything about future plans till the time for moving arrives. However, lam of opinion that you may put our inactivity down to want of supplies and carriage. There is a wide difference between the results of the first battle of Cawnpore and the second ; a contrast exists as striking as that between the generalship displayed on the first caw sion and that exercised on the second. When we had barely elapsed after the action before supplies came pouring in from the districts round about, balms was brisk in the city, government paper sold well, and confidence was restored. Now a change indeed has come over the some. The city for a week after far Colin's triumph was almost deserted, natives have lost all confidence, nothing is brought in, no supplies of grain, cattle, or carriage are forthcoming, scarcely any business is doing. I am not surprised at the present state of things, for what with our execrable generalship in allowing the Gwalior force to take possession of the town, and what with the excessive brutality of both parties towards the native inhabitants, I think any native would be wanting in common prudence to place anything valuable in a station where he has been maltreated alike by friend and foe." Before proceeding further it will be necessary to correct one or two errors which crept into my account of General Windhiun's engage ment sent home by the last mail. That ars count was written on the authority of three letters from the scene of action. But, composed hur riedly, and before the idea of the writers had had time to cool, they were contradictory in their de tails. The plain facts of the case are as follow : General Windham had been left with a force of from two to three thousand men, receiving daily additions, in command at Cawnpore, whilst Sir Calls mowed the Ganges to relieve Lucknow. It was known that the Owalior Contingent were advancing from Calpee. Sir Colin was therefore anxious te relieve Lucknow and to return to Weeper* in re& dent time to meet the enemy, and crush him. But on the 26th Windham, having heard of the advance of the enemy, moved out eight miles along the meal in a due westerly direction to meet him. At a pima called Bhowsee, on the Pandoo Noddy, ha met their advaaoed guard, consisting of 3,000 ma. I abed kelf of whom were regulars, under Scour Singh. Windham attacked and beat them, after a severe contest of an hour and a half's duration, taking three guns. We pursued them for about two hours, their cavalry covering their retreat. In the course of the pursuit the Sowers attempted to charge the 34th ; but these latter threw themselves into a square, received the charge, and then poured in each a terrible fire that almost every saddle was entptie& Oar . troops then returned nearer Cawn pese, and encamped in a plain, bounded on the north-east side by • brick-kiln, and on the south west by a thick cover of trees and brushwood, with the city in their rear. The position was about the Worst that could be taken up, for beyond the brush wood the country was full of ravines, up which sad under cover of the brushwood the enemy could advance to within a few yards of our position. It timed out as might have been anticipated. The enemy, who were excellently served by their spies, hand out the weakness of our position, and, making a detour in the night, appeared on the morning of the 27th drawn up close to our left flank. Mean while Windham, leaving his camp standing, had advanced in the direction in which he was expecting them, when he was surprised by a galling fire being opened out on our left flank. He at once formed up, and endeavoured to make head against the enemy, but his position had been turned, and if the enemy had had a leader they might easily have interposed between our troops and the station at Cawnpore, in trenched camp, and all. Happily, they did not attempt so daring a manoeuvre, but contented them selves with a very heavy fire. Our guns were re plying to this when intelligence was brought to the General that the enemy were in possession of our gasp. Windham started off at once with a small de- Imiiment to repulse them ; it was a false alarm, but dime simultaneously with his departure for the map our troops gave way, and retired towards the lntrenchment. The rebels, so unaccustomed to 'a backward movement on the part of European troops, hesitated at first to follow, suspecting a " ruse," but they soon regained their senses, and followed up our disheartened troops. Brigadier Wilson, with the 64th, Havelock's corps, came out to cover their retreat. The rebels, however, took possession of the standing camp, and everything it contained. That night the enemy, up to this point composed of the Gwalior Contingent force and Boour Singh's rabble, were joined by the Nana Sahib and his brother. They advanced direct upon Cawnpore, obtained posses sion of the city without firing a shot, and prepared to invest our intrenchment. They formed an are round it, their left resting on the Ganges, flak centre at the protestant church, and their right en the city, at the point where it touches the Mal. On the 28th, at early dawn, they opened a timer doss fire from their left and left centre against the intrensireemt. Under cover of this they unshed a strong party against the Aes=mreme. In this were stored 11,000 rounds of car tr idges, the mess plate of four QOM% regieerate, par erten' chests, and baggage of all descriptions, besides shoes for ten thermand men. Several private individuals had taken out their property the evening before, but in the confusion of the retreat the General bad no time to attend to it. The consequence was, that when attacked next day by overwhelming nem laws, the Ameemblpromes, and all the above mentioned Mm, Ml into the bands of the enemy. Having whined this raceme, the enemy, now in • gsmdo• of the Grand Trunk-road, on which they Owed their guns,. moved down, forming an seats angle with the river, towards our retrench ment. Their flanks being protected, they were able to concentrate their rudest shot on ear llesmati eat M Our men, who had been were coassematly driven bask eaw lif i rrarde the tomesat. But in the Adam nth aide a deugeatte and mast game allbat IS retrieve the hater at the day. A mg. detAteat of =odes Oeptain Wright, bedlam ' the ahogel, forming an °drat in front d the enemy's left. fleeing the enemy advenews he placed his men in skirmishing order and endescoured to check them. Whilst he was thus employed the main body of the corps, reduced to about 300 milli under Brigadier Wilson, came in sight. Accustomed to Havelock's tactics the Brigadier pushed on under a most galling fire to a small rising ground, whence he could command a view of a battery of guns, which were doing terrible execution on our centre. He pointed out the guns to the 84th, and gave the order to charge. Ranged behind the enemy's VMS were 2,600 of the choicest Owalior troops, flushed with victory. On these the three hundred of the 84th rushed. Their charge was irresistible. Already three of the guns were spiked, they were preparing to do the same by a fourth, when the rebels, recovering from their surprise, took heart and came at them. Than ensued a terrible 100 of officers and men. Captain M'Cres, who had spiked two guns with his own hand, was cut down whilst endeavouring to spike a third. Colonel Wilson was mortally wounded by a rifle bullet through the left breast. Captain Morphy was cut down at the guns. Lieutenant Parsons, of the let Fusiliers, had the bone of his right arm shattered. Major Stirling was shot. Lieutenant M•Ainnon, and Lieutenant Gibbons, were left wounded on the field. No British soldiers ever fought better; but what could 300 men do against nearly 3,000? They wereleft unsupported, ..nd finally alter . sellieiriug marvels, a smali roam, cut their supported when this), had taken the guns, the Owalior rebels meat have been defeated, for they were cut in two, and they could not have withstood the simul taneous charge of two thousand British soldiers. Inste►d however of directing the attack on one part of the enemy's line, General Windham contented himself with isolated sorties. Their partial success showed how much might have been effected under • bolder plan. The troops returned that evening to the intrenchment dispirited, and almost savage. They had left several wounded on the field, and they had lost confidence in their leader. All were downcast, when providentially Sir Colin Campbell rode into Cawnpore. His countenance, as he crossed the bridge, was very stern ; but when he reached the intrenchment, and found that the stores which had been accumulated with so mach labour had disappeared in one night, he was pet reedy furious. l'ew would have cared to change places with the defeated Generals. All sorts of stories are current as to the manner and language in which the gallant veteran gave vent to his indig nation ; it were needless to repeat them; he soon showed by his acts the opinion which he had formed. General Windham was transferred to the command of the Umballah division; General Dupuis, who commands the Royal Artillery, was removed to Dumdum, near Calcutta; the command of the sta tion of Cawnpore was bestowed on Brigadier Inglis, who bad so greatly distinguished himself in the defence of Luchnow. But ificTolin did not content himself with any half measure. On the 29th and 30th, whilst he crossed over the ladies and wounded of the Lucknow garrison, he attacked the enemy's right, and completely occu pied their attention. From this time till the 3th, daily skirmishes took plans, in which the enemy's Are did little damage. On the latter date the ladies and wounded were started for Allahabad, and on the fol lowing morning Sir Colin prepared to drive the enemy out of Cawnpore. Covering his movements with a very heavy fire, the Commander-in-aid marched the main body out of the intrenchment, leaving a small force there, and took ground to his left until he found himself perpendicular, as it were, to the right flank of the enemy, who on this point occupied the line of the oinal. He then changed front and marched down with great rapidity on the enemy's flank, covered by his guns. The rebels were totally anpeepared for an advance in this direc tion, and after a resistance of lees than an hour, in whisk they ingteted upon us only a nominal loss, they fled in every direction. How they fled and were pursued Brigadier Grant's column was oo rectly describ ed in my last. From this date up to the 17th, from the cameo explained in the early part of the letter, all was quiet at Cawnpore. On the 17th, a brigade, under Brigadier Walpole, started northward for Etawali, and Sir Colin himself was to leave about the 22nd for Futtyghurh. A tele graphic despatch which arrived yesterday announces that he did march on that day. It is probable that no sooner has the Drab—that is, the country lying be tween the rivers Ganges and Jumna—been thoroughly cleared, then Sir Colin will march into Oude on its south-eastern extremity, whilst simultaneously columns from the north under Jung Bahadoor, and on the south-west under Brigadier-General Franks, will penetrate into the country. In my last I mentioned that Colonel Lo 'a column, threatened by fifteen thousand men, had retired on Jannpore. The enemy, however, has not been sufficiently adventurous to pursue it, and General Franks is now advancing with reinforcements of two thousand Europeans. His force will be divided into three columns, one of which will penetrate into Onde by Azimghur, a second by way ofJawipore, and a third by Allahabad. Entering at these points, they will march upon one centre, and then sweep up towards Sultanpore and Lucknow. Jung Bahadoor'aoolnmn of ten thousand Goorkhas was at Segowlie oa the 21st inst. It was to attack and retake Garuckpore on the 28th, and then to march direct upon Fyzabad and Lucknow. This latter city would then be attacked on four sides (as General Ontram still holds the Alumbagh). Its capture would follow as a matter of course, and then the allied army, sweeping up through Seetapore, Shabjehanpore, and Itohilcund, would complete the subjugation of this aide of India.

The important service of guiding Sir Colin Camp bell in his advance to Lucknow was performed by James Cavanagh.

I however spoke so confidently of imager, and treated the dangers so lightly, that he at last yielded, and did me the honour of adding that if I sacoesded in reaching the Commander-in- Chief my knowledge would be a great help to him. I secretly err/need for a disguise, so that my departure might not be lowan jo my wife, as she was not well enough to bear the prospect of an eternal esperallon. When I left home, about 7 o'clock in the evening, she thought I was roe on duty for the night to the mines, for I was worldng as an sadstant field engineer, by order of Sir Jarmo Wpm. By half-part 7 o'clock my disguise was completed, sad when I entered the room of Colonel Napier no one in it re cognised me. I was dressed as a Balms* or as en Irre gular soldier of the city, with sword and shield, native made shoes, tight trousers, a yellow Bak koortith over a tight fitting white muslin shirt, a yellow-coloured chists sheet throw round my shoulders, a craanrooloured turban, end • whits waistband or kuniurbtmd. Ny face down to the shoulders, and my hands to the wrists, were coloured with lamp black, the cork used being dipped in oil to cause the colour to adhere • little. I could get nothing better. I had little confidence in the disguise of my features, and I trusted mare to the dartoesm of the night; but eir Jams Output kfe MI" seemed sods I, tad, after Wig provided with • small double-barrelled pistol, and a pair of broad pyjemahs over the tight drawers, I proceeded with Hunoujee La to the right bank of the river Goompty, running north of our entrenchment, accompanied by Captain Herding* of the Irregular Cavalry. Here we undreamed and quietly forded the river, whirl wee only about et feet deep, and about • hundred yards wide at this point. My courage failed me while in the water, and if my guide bad been within reach I should perhaps have pulled him back and abandoned the enterprise. But he waded quickly through the stream, and reaching the oppo site beck went crouching up a ditch for three hundred yards, to a grove of low trees on the edge of a pond, where we stopped to dress. While we were here • man came down to the pond to wash, and went away again without observ ing us. My confidenoe now returned to me, and with my tul. war resting on my shoulder, we advanced into the huts in front, where I accosted • matchlockman, who answered to my remark that the night was cold, "It is very cold, in tact, it is a cold night." I pared him, adding that It would be colder by and bye. " " After going six or urea hundred yards further, we reached the iron bridge over the Goompty, where we were stopped and called over by a native Ater who was seated in an upper storied house, and semasd to be in command of a eavali7 picket, whose homes were near the place saddled . My guide advanced to the light, and I stayed a little back in the shade. After being told that we bad come from Mun dy:et (our old cantonment, and then in the possession of the I enemy), end that we were going into the city to our homes, be let us proceed. We continued on along the left bank of the river to the state bridge, which is about eight or nine hundred yards from the iron bridge, peeing unnoticed through a number of Sams end matchlock men, tome of whom were escorting proms of rank in palankeens preceded by torches. Reerceming the ()empty by the stone bridge, we went by a sentry unobserved, who was closely questioning a dirtily dneeed salve, and into the Moak, or principal street of the city of Lookoow, which was not illuminated as much as it aced to bs previona to the siege, nor wee it so crowded. I *Med Against several armed men in the street without being spoken to, cad only met one guard of seven ilepoys, who were amming themselves with some women of pleasure. When issuing from the city into the country we were challenged by a chowkeeder, or watchman, who, without stopping 91 1 / 2 merely sated who we were. The pert of the city traversed that night by ma seemed to have been deserted by at haft a third of its inhabitants. I was in peat obits when we reached the green tleida, into which I had not been fir eve mentha. Everything around us smelt sweet, and a carrot I took from the road-ride was the most &Won I had ever tested. I gave vent to my feelings in a conversation with Kunoujee Lall, who joined in my admiration of the province of Chide, and lamentation that it was now in the hands of wretches whose misgovernment and rapacity were ruining It. A further walk of a few miles was accomplished in high spirit'. But there was trouble before es. We had taken the wrong road, and win now quite out of our way in the Dilkoonah Park, which was occupied by the enemy. I went within twenty yards of two guns to me what strength they were, and returned to the guide, who wee in great slum and begged I would not distrust him because of the mistake, as it war caned by his anxiety to take me away from the pickets of the enemy. I bade him not to be frightened of me, for I was not annoyed, as such accidents were not unfrequent even when there was no danger to be avoided. It was now about midnight. We en deavoured to persuade a cultivator, who was watching his crop, to show us the way for a short diernaos, but he urged old age sad laminae', and another whom I peremptorily told to ems with us ran off screaming, and alarmed the whole village. We neat walked quickly away into the mud, run ning under the Charbegh, in which I fell several time, owing to my sheen being wet and slippery and my feet aces. Th. ahoy were lard and tight, and bad rubbed the akin off my Me and cut Into the flesh above the heels. In two hours more we were again on tke right direction, two women in a village we pared having kindly helped us to find it. About two o'clock we reached an advanced picket of Sepoya who told us the way, alter asking where we had come from and whither we were going. I thought It refer to go up to the picket then to try to pees then observed. Karam* Lall now begged I would not press him to take me into Alumbagh as he did not know the way in, and the many were strongly posted around the place. I was tired, and in pain from the shoes, and would therefore have pre ferred going into Alumbagh, but u the guide feared attempt 1121r it, I desired him to go on to the camp of the Commander in-Chief, which he said was near Bonnie (a village 18 miles from Luclmow) upon the Caw:more road. The moon had rims by this time, and we could see wail ahead. By 8 e'elock we arrived at a grove of =ego tress, situ ated on e plain, in which a man was eingbig at the top of his voice. I thought he was a villager, but he got alarmed on hearing us approach, and 'stubbed us, too, by calling out a guard of twenty-five &goys, ell of whom asked questions. Kunoujee Lai here lost heart for the first time, and threw away the letter entrusted to him he Sir Colin CampbelL I kept mine ode in my turban. We satisfied the guard that we were poor men travelling to Baron* a village two mike this side of the Wars camp, t inform a irked of the death of hls brother by • I shot from the British mitrimehment at Lucknow, and they told tea the rood.

Camp, Alumbagh, Nov. 24. Isms Cseaneen. LETTERS PROM INDIA. The following is from a brave and skilful officer who has been in close attendance upon Sir Colin Campbell throughout his operations in Oude and the Doab : CAWNPORE, Du. 16. Truly the mass of ruins from which we extricated this brave garrison spoke mast eloquently—far more so than words can express—the severe nature of the ordeal they had passed through. In spite of all detraction, the acts of the Indian army proclaim its worth. Faithful to their trust, heroic in action, and enduring under the greatest difficulties, its officers have shown to the world that it is not from the want of the soldier's best qualities that this great misfor tune has fallen upon the country. . . I nuat tell you what has been done since we left Lucknow. While we were yet many miles on the other aide of the Ganges we heard the firing of heavy artillery, and concluded that the Ciwalior Contingent, and other rebels ,joined to that force, had made an attack on our position here. This hurried our movements. With all our wounded, and women, and children we made a forced march of nearly 30 miles, and arrived at the opposite bank of the river on the 28th tilt., and with a portion of the force, two batteries of artillery, crossed on the 29th, and took up a position to facilitate the crossing of the families, &c. All were safely over the next da. At this time the rebels were in possession of all y the city and all the cantonments to the north west of the canal, and kept up a continual fire on the intrenchments and our camp, which was very insulting. But Sir Colin's purpose was the mfety of the wounded and families above all other considera tions, and he, therefore, merely kept down this fire— which continued more or less so long u we remained there. However, on the 6th he was ready for an attack, and we moved out in the early forenoon in splendid order—turned their flank, drove them from their first position, and soon broke them into flight— passed their camp, and pursued them with artillery and cavalry for twelve or fourteen miles—captnred all their guns, all their camp and property, and immense store of ammunition. At the same time a portion of our force obtained possession of a mast important post, which greatly tended to subsequent successes. On the Bth, a detachment left is pursuit cif &portion of the enemy that re treated by another road, came up with them, and took them completely by surprise in the bed of the river, preparing to cross their artillery into Oude, captured all the remainder of their guns—l 3 in number—without a casualty on our part. This was an immense swims. It has oompletely broken up this rebel force and dispersed them. We have since been halted here. Sir Colin is, of course, much pleased—he has gained all his objects, and at the least possible sacrifice; and he owes all to his own excellent management of his troops, and his skill in selecting the line of operations. He is very careful of his men, and, if apparently slow, the results jus tify all he does. One learns a lesson in soldiership under such a general, and I have had the good for tune to be continually at his aide throughout all these and the Lucknow operations. . . . The campaign hitherto has had very important re sults politically. . . • Our communication with the Upper Provinces is almost suspended. Occasionally messengers bring down letters, but no regular post can be established. It will be a chief part of our next operations to en deavour to open up this communication. . . . In all the actions I have been close to Sir Colin. What a noble old soldier ! He is so cool under the fiercest are ; so thoughtful of his men, and anxious about carrying them into danger, but so collected when his plans are formed, and so gallant in leading them on. It is a fine sight to see this old man at such a time ; full of energy and enthusiasm, yet calm and collected as possible. . . . I have written so much ►bou t him that you will suspect me of hero-worship. The fact is there is something very captivating in his manner. . . GENERAL THOMPSON, M.P., ON INDIA. [The following letter, addressed by the veteran Corn Lair Reformer to the Manchester Guardian, with • view to correct some misconceptions as to his views on the Indian question, is a valuable testi mony to the merits of the Company's government.] gin,—ln times of beat, nothing is more common than not to know friends from foes. In some letters of mine to Bradford, one passage of which in parti cular is handled rather severely in a leader in your journal of 16th January, examination would have shown that instead of being directed against the great and able men whom you so justly defend, the whole was designed for their unprincipled oppo nents, for whom no language can be too strong. For two centuries and a half the East India Com pany and its servants managed India with the pru dence characteristic of commercial men. All the troubles which from time to time arose were the work of other people. In opposition to the resist ance and remonstrances of the compouiy, the elements of mischief were gradually, introduced ; and now comes the explosion, which it is ingeniously attempted to charge on those whose lives were one continued attempt to hinder it. If you should admit this letter in your next, I shall be happy if the effect is to direct the attention of your great commercial community to the im portance of rallying round the But India Company in the coming struggle.-1 am, &c., T.
