This Company has been formed for the purchase of the Freehold Landed Estate of 152 acres, together with the Ma chinery, Plant, and the Coal, Ironstone, and Minerals, there under, as also under 119 acres of land adjoining, embracing live seams of first-rate coal, together nearly 900 acres, adapted for house, gas, coke, and manufacturing purposes. The property is situated in the parish of Whittington, near Chesterfield, on a branch of the Midland Railway, and near the Chesterfield Canal. The colliery is raising above 750 tons per week, which is con tracted for by highly respectable firms, whilst the machinery is capable of raising 1,000 tons per week, and as soon as the lower seams are reached, the outlay for which is provided ter in the capital of £60,000,. at least 2,000 tons per week, inde pendently of the ironstone, will be raised. The present returns from the Land, Colliery, and Iron stone, after all deductions, will give a net profit of 16 per cent. to the Shareholders ; and when the workings are ex tended (within two years) nearly double that profit may, be relied on. By the arrangements for the purchase, £20,000 remain on mortgage over a period of years, and not more than £2 will be called up for the first twelve months, and £2 during the second year, beyond which it is not expected further calls will be made. • Full particulars, together with the valuations and estimates of Messrs. Jeffcock and Walker, Haslehurst, and others, and the calculations of an experienced Mineral Agent, will appear in the prospectus, which, with Forms of Application, may be had at the Offices of the Company, and the respective Solici tors and Brokers, to whom applications for Shares are to be addressed.

FUNCTIONAL WEAKNES pin reference to the INFIR MITIES andDI SORDERS of the GENERATIVE SYSTEM; tracing the Origin of these distressing afflictions to causes which vitiate the very fountains of Life and prematurely de stroy the vigour of Manhood. With Practical Observations on the Cure of these Diseases, and on the extraor4ipary re storative power of LOCAL GALVANISM in Spegliorrhcea. Impotence, and Sterility, in which cases it is app e without pain or danger, and is frequently successful without the aid of medicine. BY SAMUEL LAWERT, M.D., 37, BEDFORD-SQUARE, LONDON, Registered Licentiate of the London Society of Apothecaries, Doctor of Medicine of the University of Erlangen, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society. &c. An erroneous impression exists that public announcements on these disorders emanate only from unqualified persons, but as the new Medical Act provides that none but registered practitioners shall assume any medical title, those that are legally qualified can readily be distinguished —a point of great importance in cases where secrecy, confidence, and skill are equally requisite. In the new edition of ' Self-Preservation,' facts of para mount utility are brought together—facts appealing to the prudence of all who are sufferinfr, from affections which in volve the enfeeblement and ultimate loss of those powers without which man forfeits the dignity of nature, and sinks to the most pitiable depths of physical and moral degradation. In cases where the vital essences have been weakened by the influences of tropical climates, by pernicious habits, indiscri minate excesses, improper diet,'` hardship, or by injudicious treatment, the means of cure adopted by the author, in con junction with the application of Local Galvanism, have gene rally been found successful, even in cases where recovery had been pronounced impossible.

The more Mr. Owen Meredith is read and understood, so much the more will he be pronounced to be one of the very best poets—if not the best—of the present age."—Bell's Messenger.

Mr. Kelly is the proper man to tell it well, for through him it can tell itself. When there, he is not only in the scene, but of the scene. The adventurous' spirit of the men who made the colony itibis own spirit. He has been at home in California, at home in Australia, and he is now on the way to British Columbia.

Just Published, price is., free by Post for Fourteen Stamps, QECOND LIFE : or ELECTRICAL NERVOUS /..3 FORCE ; a MEDICAL WORK, intended for the special perusal of all who are suffering from the various forms of NERVOUS and PHYSICAL DEBILITY, and the distress ing ulterior consequences to which they lead ; with practical Observations on the great Curative power of ELECTRO GALVANISM in the treatment of these Disorders, by infus ing tone and vigour in constitutions relaxed or debilitated from various enervating causes. Illustrated with Cases com piled from the Note-book of a Registered Medical Practi tioner of twenty years' standing. Unlike many vaunted restoratives, Electricity is one which commends itself to the medical man as being accordant with the soundest teachings of physiology. By the most obvious indication it admits of being shown that the Electrical and Nervous energies are identical ; hence, that when the latter fails, the former can take its place, and that when, from irre gularities of any kind, the nervous system has become debili tated, paralysed, or exhausted, and the patient brought to a condition little short of total prostration, then by the action of Electricity, imparting certainty and efficacy to medical treatment, he can be re-invigorated, and his health re-esta blished to a de2'ree almost warranting the designation of SECOND LIFE.

The accounts which are received from various parts of Oude are, with one exception, most favour able. 'Forts are demolished, the revenues are paid, the new proprietors have entered upon their estates; but the people will not give up their arms. To their old matchlocks, rusty worn-out guns, and indifferent swords and shields, spears; bows, and axrows, we are welcome;. but their precious percussions, their fowl ing pieces, rifles, and superior kinds of firearms, their fine Guzeratee blades and poniards, are hidden, watched over, hugged, and secreted beyond all power of investigation, punishment, or coaxing. One day our police find three or four cannon in different wells, another they dig up a brass field piece from under a barn floor ; then they find a nest of swordblades in the house thatch, or a box of muskets under an old wall. It is calculated that on the Ist of l as t S e pt em b er there were in the possession of this agreeable population not less than 1.200 pieces of artillery of calibre varying from 12- pounders to 1-pounders. The larger guns are of iron, and are of foreign manufacture or of native make superintended by Europeans in India, and their loss is irreparable, for Asiatics have lost the secret of casting iron guns or shells or shot, but they cast brass very skilfully, and can turn out brass guns of all sizes up to 6-pounders with ease, and numbers of harmless brass shells. The cost of a well made matchlock is about 305., and the village smiths in Oude are skilled in their manufacture, but choice sword blades are made mostly in the north-west, and the local armouters' work of this kind is not much prized. The bows are used by the Passies, a large class of the population, who guard the crops and flocks of the villages, and diversify their avocations, like true agriculturists of the older types, by occasional raids and dacoitees. The bowmen are strong and skilful, and can send an arrow right through a man's body at a distance of a hundred yards, but they are only formidable to bad matchlockmeß: All cheap arms are readily given up, but it is ion before the lum berdar can indicate the retreat of his ancient flint " Mortimer," or some native " farkilling" matchlock, or the tulwar wherewith he smote Ram Bux in the great fight three years ago, or at any time since he could wield a sword when the Government collector sought to sweep away their crops. And then, though not afflicted by cutaneous disorders, they are most remarkably fond of brimstone, and hide it in quaint little pots, as reserves for a future day. Charcoal lives in every tree, the soil abounds in nitre, and the art of making an explosive compound from admixtures of those ingredients has been handed down in the villages from times far ante cedent to the earthskaking discovery of Friar Bacon. There are great differences of opinion as to the population of Oude. No attempt has ever been made by the Governments of Lucknow to take a census of the people, and the estimates of our officers range between 5,000,000 and 8,000,000, the calcu lation of the Gazetteer, which is only 2,500,000, being universally rejected as quite below the real population. When Major Barrow was commissioner of the Salone district, which is about a ninth part of Oude, he found the population by a careful census to be 750,000 souls. Of these the males, owing to the dreadful infanticides systematically practised by all the Rajpoots, are in great excess of the usual proportion, and it may be safely assumed that there are in Oude 2,000,000 of male adults, of whom each carries an arm of some sort or other. There ought, then, to be 2,000,000 firearms, swords, daggers, bows, spears, &c., in the province. As yet we have succeeded in getting only 333 cannon out of the assumed number of 1,200. We have only 121,000 firearms, 400,000 swords, and 27,000 spears out of the two millions we require, so that there is much yet to be done ere the people are disarmed, and the police must be active and honest to collect these, and to prevent the illicit manufacture of others. But with the forts we are more successful—they cannot be hid ; and so out of the 900 forts computed to be in Oude no less than 631 have been already demolished, and 233 are reported to be undergoing demolition ! Here Lis [England of the 19th century running a muck at England of the 12th century ; the new civilization warring against the customs and man ners of its ancient progenitor—the offspring swal lowing up Saturn. With all this there comes a strange frame of mind upon the people; in fear and perplexity, they seem to be awaiting the event which is to force them to become Christians. Of the belief in our intentions to convert them no act or saying of ours can divest their minds. Strange to say, such forced conversions as they seem to be looking for are not at all unusual, or rather were not unknown, in 0 ade ; and it has been recorded that the Maho medans here made many converts to their creed by the simple process of surrounding a village and threatening to kill all the inhabitants unless they embraced the true faith. To save their lives the males went through a ceremonial which is supposed to assure their orthodoxy, and the females, very Ruthlike in such matters, became Mussulmans like their husbands and kinsfolk, but though the Hindoo thus became a Mahomedan, and never could be come a Hindoo again, he and his being cut of to all eternity from his race, he preserved all the customs, traditions, and many of the rites of his former faith, with which he wove a curious theological life in the woof of his new belief. There are some peo ple here who think the Queen could make many millions of Christians here " by proclamation" or by " Act of Parliament," and would advise her MajeAty to try the evangelising process, if she were Unfor tunate enough to have such councillors. It is unquestionable that the efforts of learned mis sionaries, well versed in the native languages, acquainted with the dialectis of the Hindoo and Mahomedan, zealous,pious, and patient, would meet while the people are in this state of mind, with an amount of success which would be as surprising as it would be gratifying. And here let me observe that these much reviled natives show a temper and moderation which we do not find among self-styled Christians and civilised nations nearer home. So long as a Christian minister can argue with a moulvie or a pundit with patience and ingenuity, he will be listened to with interest and respect ; he will be permitted to expound the Scriptures, and to warn his hearers against the errors of their faith,'provided that he refrains from insulting, contemptuous, and irritating language ; but if he be a mere ignorant illiterate zealot, with out any qualification (temporally speaking) except a knowledge of Hindustanee and good intentions, he may be exposed to the laughter, scorn, and even abuse of the crowded bazaar in consequence of his manifest inability to meet the subtle objections of his keen and practised opponents. From what I have heard I regret to state my conviction is that no considerable success, as far as human means are concerned, can be expected from the efforts of those who are like the ancient Apostles in all things hut their inspiration and heavenly help. The differ ences between Christian missionaries—the Roman Catholic, who tells the natives that the Commis sioner, the Collector, the Judge, and the chaplain are not Christians at all, and that he is the only true teacher—and the clergyman of the church of England, and the Scotch Presbyter, and the Ameri can Episcopal Methodist, and the Baptist, and the Unitarian, do not present a very encouraging front to the Hindoo or Mussulman would-be neophyte. Come what may, the present aspect of the country indicates that peace has come for the present. The storm is over. Those who have escaped its fury are with anxious eye scanning the clouds, fearful to trust themselves to believe in the calm. Nor can the people accuse the British Govern ment of any harshness now, though they may be inclined to dispute the validity of the grounds on which we seized the country. There can be no question that, notwithstanding the corruption of the Court and the tyranny of the landholders, the people of Oude loved their King and were attached to their aristocracy. As Lord Canning pointed out in his despatch, the small village proprietors proved quite powerless to help either the G o vernment or themselves. The broad wave of the popular feeling carried back on its crest the members of the old shipwrecked race, overwhelmed the intruders whom our Courts had placed in their stead, and left the Talookdars in possession of the lands from which we had ousted them, under the pretence that . they had acquired them by force or fraud. If we cannot restore the Royal family of Oude to the throne on which a long race of Nawab Viziers sat as our firm allies, our ready friends in time of need, every ready with crores of rupees and such help as they could render us in trouble, we can at least endeav our t o turn to account the atta chment which is asserted to exist on the part of the people towards th e i r c hi e f s by intrusting the latter with some share in the ad ministration of the country. A l an d e d ar i s t ocracy w ith ou t any power is a dangerous anomaly in India, or out of it. Although Mr. Wi ng fi e ld, th e new C o mmissioner, will no doubt give a fair trial to the system inaugurated by the m iti s sa pi e nt u of Robert M `Montgomery, it is much to be regretted that the services of the latter will be lost to Oude at this critical moment. But Sir Sohn Lawrence leaves PRICE 4 D . STAMPED, SD. Lahore for England in a fortnight, and unless the arguments of his successor, Mr. Montgomery, who will start on the 15th to meet the great Punjabee before he leaves the scenes of his immortal labours and triumphs, convince that clear hard head, Sir John Lawrence will go home a determined opponent of any measure which shall confer the semblance of power and authority on the native gentry, and he will leave behind him many able men who are already standing aghast, or raising the voice complaint and protest against such daringinnova tions on the policy of many years. Although many of the Talookdars, great and small, broke into open rebellion and long resisted us in the field, the conduct of the Government of Oude has been marked by clemency and generosity —two words and qualities odious to many in India. Whatever the threats of the Proclamation, Lord Canning has certainly used the powers of confisca tion very sparingly, and Major Barrow's settlements of revenue with proprietors who are placed beyond all fear of change or dispossession for years to come, now amount to the sum of 8,914,209 rupees, on a revenue of about 12,000,000 rupees per annum, of which 4,142,190 rupees have been already collected. The Rajah L onee Singh, whose estates are not yet confiscated, is waiting his trial, as he not only fought against us; but permitted British subjects, ladies and children, to be treated with indignity when they sought for shelter on his estates, and betrayed the Seetapore fugitives to the Lucknow Government The State trials of men who would have been most certainly hanged at once if they had fallen into our hands a year ago will be interesting. The Nawab Of Furruckabad is to b e tried at F u tt e h g hur by Mr. Batten and two other judges, and he will be allowed counsel for his defence. Several native officials supposed to have been banged have com e t o lif e and . are under trial, but does not appear who their representatives at the executions were. In Oude the capital sentences and punishments inflicted by the civil authorities are few indeed, and evince the spirit of clemency by which the restoration of our rule has been characterised, and may be held in some measure to account for the speedy tranquilisa tion of the country. . The total number of capital sentences carried into effect in Oude is only . 28 . . All the convicted were great and notorious crimi nals. About 120 were sentenced to transportation, 50 were flogged, and 90 were acquitted. In con tinuation of former returns I forward a copy of the latest weekly report relative to the disarmaments. It will be seen that the distrust of the sepoys still defies experience and promises. Including the Oude regiments there could. not have been less than 50,000 sepoys belonging to this province, and, as suming that one half of them were killed or died of wounds and disease, there is still a very large mar gin between 25,000 and the 6,000 who have sur rendered to us. Granting that many thousands have returned secretly to their homes, and are hiding all over the province, there must, neverthe less, be upwards of 12,000 or 14,000 sepoys at large, of whom the larger part are probably in the Nepaulese territories or in the Terai jungles. Only 496 acknowledged soi-disant mutineers have ap peared before our officers all over Oude, but of the 4,900 sepoys who have presented themselves with leave certificates it may be fairly assumed that one half, at least, were fighting against us. FEB. 1. The 9th Lancers and 79th Highlanders remain in their dusty, sandy plain near the Chuckerwallah Kothie, the latter close to the very spot where they encamped when Outram crossed the river and led them on in their first movement towards the final checkmate. They are to be stationed at Lahore, and they will thus traverse a large portion of India before they reach their cantonments. The 9th Lancers will volunteer before they start for Eng land, and for three days the canteens will be open gratis and the men served with liquor ad libitum if the old practice be, as I hope it will not be, observed. It is not fair to the soldier to ensnare him, or to secure his services by such means. If he elects to enter another regiment, and to continue his mili tary career in India, let him do so with all his faculties about him, and let him not be able to say, " I was drunk when I took the bounty." There is no artificial stimulus requisite to make a man remain here if he is sober, intelligent and moderately edu cated. In the new European regiments he is certain of becoming a valued non-commissioned officer in a very short time, and if he is saving and industrious he has a fine career open to hint in the lower branches of the public service. The life of a dra goon in India is a course of absolute luxury com pared with his duties in England or any home station. The furloughs of the civil service are opened. But what is the use, if the Peninsular and Oriental do not take compassion on us ? Will no one hear the cry of those poor starlings who are piping, hot with apprehension of the coming heats, " We can't get out ! We can't get out !" and liberate us from the cage ? The " Great Eastern" to the rescue ! Not all the curry in Calcutta, nor all the prawns in the Ganges, nor the kuskus tatties in Hindostan, nor the claret cups of all the clubs, nor all the pun kahs in Bengal, or the pickled mangoes of Bombay, nor humps of ox nor brawn of boar can tempt one who served last summer under canvass to risk another, unless the civil service or a fat brigadier ship with its magic four 3's a month, binds him by golden links to the burning, deadly soil. FEB. 2. I am told that Lord Clyde reviewed or inspected the 79th Highlanders this morning, previous to their departure to-morrow on their long march of ' 60 odd days to their station at Lahore. I hear that his lordship made the regiment a farewell speech, in which he attributed the position he now holds to his Sovereign's favour, and his peerage to the High land Brigade. Lord Clyde might, however, have taken some credit to himself for his long career of meritorious service, and his gallantry, professional attainments, and great sagacity. No one knew of the inspection, except the members of his lordship's personal staff and the Chief of the Staff, and one or two others. Even the Quartermaster-General of the Army was not made acquainted with it, and Col. Taylor, commanding the regiment, did not know they would be inspected till late in the previous evening. Young Lord Dangan left the head-quarters camp last night on his way to Bombay, having failed in his object of seeing active service, except such little affairs as those of Doundhia Khera, Mejiddiah, and the scamper of the Raptee, and consequently losing his chance of establishing a claim for a brevet-ma jority. The army is inundated with brevet-majors, and a very high authority has designated a modern war as "a machine for evolving brevet-majorities." We must not make military rank and rewards too cheap, and at the best brevets are bad in principle. The only army in the world save our own in which brevet rank is known is not one to follow in any way—l mean that of Spain, where there are some times 20 field officers to a regiment. As far as lam aware, brevets are not known in the army of France, or in those of Austria, Prussia, Russia, Denmark , Sweden, Sardinia, or Turkey. As to clasps, medals, ribands, and deorations, we are in a fair way of rivalling the Russians. Some of our officers have not room on their ample left breasts for the display of their many coloured harvest of ribands from the field of glory, and, as our medals are very solid affairs, the ingenious jeweller drives a small trade in making decorations in petto. FEB. 3. The policy of Lord Canning in reference to the relations between our Government and that of Nepaul has been, however tardily inaugurated or divulged, most successful in its effect. Jung Baha door has been obliged to solicit our assistance. Orders have been despatched by Sowars to Briga dier Horsford to cross the Raptee on receipt of the despatch, and to enter Nepaul to co-operate with the Ghoorka troops in reducing the Sepoys who have sought refuge. As Lord Clyde has had a re turn of his indisposition, and is now so unwell as to render any application to business undesirable, I presume that General Mansfield in issuing those orders acted on the instructions of the Supreme Government. For my ownpart Iregret much that I shall be unable to see this strange and interesting country—the relays of Sowars will traverse in some 30 hours a space which it would take me six or seven marches to accomplish, burdened as I should be with tent and food, so that making the utmost haste I could not arrive on the Raptee for four or five days after the column had entered Nepaul. In consequence of the march of Horsford's force the pass of the Raptee will be left open, but the Ist Bengal Fusiliers, who were at Byram Ghat, expecting the route for llugshai, near Simla, will be sent on to take their place, and the Kumaon Battalion, from Bareach, will probably move on to support them, for it is necessary to guard all tho bridges and ferries for the present, lest the despe rate Sepoys and outlaws known to be hugging the Terai should make a rush to get away to their homes or to plunder unprotected villages. The indisposition of the Commander-in-Chief is caused by a kind of bronchitis—an aggravation of the cold from which he h as b een suffering for some days, produced, no doubt, by his exertions yesterday, and by wa n t o f p recau ti on aga inst the effect of the raw air. To-day the dust is flying .in clouds, und er visitors axe corni ng the influnenee of a high wind. APPETITE AND INDIGESTION IMPROVED.

Her Majesty's steam transport Rhadamanthus, Master-Commander Sturdee, laden with steam gear for Portsmouth, having failed in the attempt to leave the basin at Woolwich on Friday last, in consequence of the low tides, yesterday proceeded on her voyage. The store transport Dee, Master-Commander Pullen, was yesterday undocked at Woolwich, and admitted into the fitting basin to complete repairs. From the paucity of accommodation now available in the shape of store vessels for the transport of machinery, the wharfs at Woolwich are encumbered with steam gear awaiting the means of transport, to the amount of about 3,000 tons, and which is daily increasing. Orders have been issued by direction of his Royal Highness the Commander-in-Chief to the military authorities at Portsmouth, directing a board of offi cers to assemble and report upon the present mode of supplying the troops in that garrison with their groceries, vegetables, &c. The Urgent, screw steam troop ship, went into Portsmouth harbour yesterday from Spithead, and landed her military and naval invalids at the north jetty, - - _ _ _ - Ii is reported that Captain H. Eyres, C. 8., of the St. Vincent, 102, ordinary guardship at Portsmouth, will, on the completion of his flag time on the 21st inst., pay off that ship, which will b e recommis sioned as a training ship. The command of the " ordinary" will, it is also said, devolve upon a commander. The following officers have taken up their com missions and appointments, and joined the Hero at Sheerness—viz., Lieutenants John T. Swann and Henry Davies ; Mr. Charles Newton Streatfeild, mate ; and Mr. Julian W. Bradshaw, surgeon. The steam vessel Locust, Lieutenant-Commander John B. Field, left Sheerness yesterday for the Channel Islands, to remain for further orders on communication with Commander Edward G. Hore, of the steam vessel Dasher, the senior officer there. Commander F. H. Stirling has been appointed to the Hero; and Mr. George L. Carr, Master, addi tional, to the Exmouth. THE AR ZI/Y. Colonel Phillpotts, Royal Horse Artillery, has arrived at head-quarters, Woolwich, from Bombay, in order to assume the duties of his appointment in command of the brigade of Royal H orse A r till ery at Woolwich, in succession to Colonel Maude, ap pointed to the constabulary force in Dublin. THE MILITIA. --- The Royal North Down Regiment of Militia, now at Aldershott, is to be disembodied on the 31st inst- [ADVERTISEMENT.] —Holloway ' s Ointment and Pills. — Shortness of breath, colds, coughs.—Thousands of testi monials can be produced to prove the power possessed by these corrective remedies in asthma, incipient consumption, and all disorders of the chest and lungs. The Ointment, well rubbed upon the chest and back, penetrating the skin, is absorbed and carried directly to the lungs, where, in im mediate contact with the whole mass of circulating blood, it neutralises or expels any impurities which are the foun dation of consumption, asthma, bronchitis, pneumonia, &c. All pulmonary complaints are thus easily cured. The asthmatic chest, tightened to suffocation in foggy, damp weather, is liberated by Holloway's Ointment and Pills, which alike cure the short, dry, consumptive cough, and the heavy expectoration attending bronchitis, • 4. The messengers started wi t h e desputo hes and orders for Brigadier Horsford at 12 o'clock fester_ day, and will reach him-by-riding night anct day in the course of this morning... It would seem that the rebels, accordi r,g to the official reports of the Nepaulese authorities to their Government, were in force ate several points not far from the magazine at Pewthana. The se; VYS and soldiers paid for such grain and animals, fo Nits and sheep, as they required, but their camp fa Rowers, like our own, were disorderly, plundering seotin ai cis, when_ severities could check, and se theso latter by their violence and robberies had driven the Nepaulese villagers from their homes . The general in command had applied for aid, as he had only 400 or 500 sepoys of the revenue department available for the protection of the people. It ap pears that the Begum is somewhere in the neigh. bourhood of the rebel camp, for she has made efforts to open a correspondenc e with the Maharajah, but the Nepaulese have refused to forward her letters. The fortress of Doonia Gurree commands the inner passes, and the soldiers stationed there have be en ordered to let neither Begum nor followers enter. The Nepaulese Government have acted with per fect good faith so far, and appear determined to adhere to the threats and promises of their prods mation. The sepoys are described as being despe rate, " If we must die let us die by the hands of the Ghoorkas rather than those of the Feringhees." I understand that the Maharajah of Nepillal (Dhiraj) has exp resse d to,Lord Canning the high sense he entertains of the generosity of the British Government in permitting the rebels to .find 'an asylum in his kingdom, and of the honour done to Nepaul in treating it as a powerful neutral State. He goes on, however, to express his apprehension that if the British troops do not enter Nepaul and. co-operate with the Ghoorkas in expelling the 4 enemy, the latter, thinking Nepaul a safe place o' shelter, will assemble in such thousands as to re ,_ quire a large army fa their destruction. Hi s M. Jesty's reasoning t- very clear, for 't' ne Ghoorkas act against the rebels there can be no misunderstanding on the part of the latter as tot he nature of the asylum. The Rajah of Nepaul, ho y_ ever, obviates all doubt by a formal demand f hat the British troops under Lord Clyde should c( xme and kill the rebels, but that they shall not kill c%) ws or bulls, or hang any rebels inside his territory. J frankly acknowledges that his force is not sty ffi ciently strong to prevent the rebels making atta, on the British territory, and so that he cannot p ro perly respond to the confidence expressed by the Governor-General in his previous letter respec ling the security of the frontier. The Maharaja} i ex presses great indignation against those unfai Chful Sepoys who not only were " untrue to their salt, but showed no mercy to British ladies-and child .1. en." But he warns the Government that all opera ions must be concluded by the 16th of March, or the malaria of the Terai will terminate them by killing our,troops. In conclusion, the King, in considera tion of "my faith and religion," asks the ritish Government to issue orders to the troops hot to ssize upon women and children and take the m away forcibly, but let them remain in Nepaul, or g p where thew please. Although the Maharajah expresses great detes tation of Dhondia Punt (Nana Sahib) he ( foes not seem to have taken any step for his seizur B, though he says he has warned him that he can ueceive no asylum in Nepaul. .
