BY SAMUEL LAWEBT, M.D., 37, BEDFORD SQUARE, LONDON, Matriculated Member of the University of Edinburgh, Flonorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, Sce., &c. The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con sequences resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses, which have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man hood, and premature decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any other class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is particularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of their physical condition, and who are conscious of having hazarded the health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is • ititletd. It is absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are Principles of personal management which cannot be violated with oat i n curring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret suc ceed the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how those penaltie , May be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may he removed, and how the evil and its consequences maybe avoided, and, above all, that there is scarcely any degree of physic ii infirmity or functional derangeinent to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure.

As it quite certain that the enemy are moving about the fords on the left bank of the - Ganges, between Fut tehpore and .Cawnpore, an ,ea- peditionary column has been ordered to set out to morrow from the force stationed betwee“lawn pare and Alumbagh to take them in the will consist of her Majestj's 3 ith, 38th, and 53d Regiments, one squadron of the 7th Hussars, - one squa4ron of the 9th Lancers, ono squadron of Hodson's Horse, one of Watson's hor6e, of one troop Royal Horse Artillery and one troop or bat tery Bengal Artillery, one 18-pounder, one 8-inch howitzer, and a company of Sappers and Miters. They will move off the road at a point near Bun nee, and proceed on a line inclining towards the Ganges so as to cut off the enemy, who will either have to cross the river, when in all probability they will meet Walpole's column, or seek refuge either by a circuitous rou!a back to Lucknow, or by fall ing back towards the north-west of Onde. There is news from Lucknow which prepares us to hear of an attack on Outram's force at Alumbagh to-mor row. The Begum's favourite, MUIliOO Khan, or his creatures, issued a proclamation stating that there were only 200 Europeans at Alumbagh, and yet that no one dared attack them euept Mumoo Khan. The sepoys, angry at this taunt) held a council of war, and it was decided that two and a half mont hs' pay should be given to the troops en2aged in the assault, wh'cla wasfixed forithe 16th of February, but the money is not yet fur hcorning. Tnere are 26,000 sepoys in the city, but the force of matchlock men, very formidable in. defending streets and houses, is enormous ; the . inhabitants and the men of various arms arrayed against us • constitute a total probably of 200,000 souls. The enemy had sent orders to Maun Singh to march into Lucknow to join in the fight, but that chieftain is at present on his estates, and it is presumed that he will not comply with the demand. It is unfortunate that we cannot give active support to those who are inclined to be n utral, for by so doing we should decide theM in our favour. The Rajab of Churkharee harbitherbo hell - out on our side, 'but very recently the Calpee , force detached a party against him, beat his troops in two engagements, took two of his guns, and forced the Rajah to retreat to his fortress and to pre tend to negotiate. Unless we can help him it is feared he may have to yield. [PRitikr 4b. 611A).A.P.Et, , . • - . . mander-in-Chief does not set an example to his officers by any extravagance in baggage. He lives in a small subaltern'sient, and his chief of the staff is equally moderate. I believe his E xce lle nc y's personnel is contained in a couple of small port manteaus, and during this short campaign he has slept on the ground among his men on more than on occasion without cover of any sort. He is ap parently in excellent health, although his labours are arduous and incessant, as he and his chief of the staff manage all the details connected with the disposition of bis force. and to a great extent dis pense with the usual services of Adjutant-General and Quartermaster-General. At present all the artillery, except a couple of guns, are beyond. the Ganges. Some small delay was caused by the briaaking of the bridge of boats, but the greater part of the infantry are- beyond the river, and are on the march to or are stationed between Cawnpore, Biinnee, on the road to Lucknow, and . the Alum ba4h. Meantime the enemy are becoming more and more uneasy, and, as we are closing uron them, the dissensions in L uc k now are aug mented. A night or two before my arr i va l a body of) 200 horse crossed the Gan ges upo n our l e ft, an 4 managed to get past our position, and have espaped, as it is supposed, to Calpee, where the remnants of the Gwalior Contingent are strongly posted on the right bank of the river Jumna. At first it was reported that Nana Sahib was w th them, but more accurate information leads me o t believe that the Nana is still on the left bank i of the Ganges, and that it was his nephew who get over. However, there is reason to think that thole Nana is manoeuvring with a body of 2,000 mnn, a large portion of whom are cavalry, to get tamer the Gauges either to join the Calpee enemy or tol fall upon the convoys which are constantly pass ink, between Agra and Cawnpore along the Trunk Road. If these sepoys at Calpee•qand firm, they arie likely to feel the action of the Bombay column under Sir Hugh Rose, which has already passed Saugor, and is clearing the country up to theJumna wiry rapidly. That there is inconvenience in leav ing these fellows behind us is very evident, but it cannot be helped, and at present they are watched nil front by a portion of the 88th Regiment. A convoy on the road towards Agra has been recalled, aiid Walpole's brigade will he sent in that direc tin to-morrow, so that if the enemy attempt to ceoss they will be soon and effectually disposed of. They have reason to dread our means of attack • some must appear to them almo-t miraculous. A short time ago a body of sepoys crossed the Ganges jtist below t, • junction wit:, is waters of the Grand Canal. The river was low, and they forded it with out difficulty, but, finding that there was a small fdrce waiting to receive them, they retired precipi tatelyafter a brief encounter, and prepared to re-fi , rd tllie river. As they were contending with its shallow _ . Fin: 16. It is rereated, certainly, that there wilt be an attack on Outram to-clay, and the natives have a bazaar report that the camp at Cawnpore is to be attacked. The hot weather is threatening us. The sick are to be sent c•ff without delay: The condition of the country, even in the districts within reach of our operations, is much disturbed. Our outposts are ever on the alert, and everyweek a small action of some kind or other occurs between our troops and the enemy. For instance, on the 4th of February the Sepoys from Calpee moved out and attacked the position occupied by the 88th Regiment, under Colonel Vaughan Maxwell, at Bhigneepore, but they were disposed of, with the loss of 80 dead on the field and many wounded, and were driven in confusion across the river by live c impanies of that regiment, two guns, 'Royal Artillery, under Capt. Talbot, and 50 Sowars under Lieut. Thompson (who was wounded), our loss being six wounded men, two dangerously. On the Bth of February, Mr. Hume, the -mag,istrateof Etawah, with his deputy, Mr. Maconochie, having with them 60 troopers of Alexander's Horse, 80 Erawah Local Horse, and 300 matchlock-men, with one 3-pounder brass gun, the troops being commanded by Capt. Alexander, attacked a foree of 1,500 men under Rouf Singh, with one gun, strongly posted near Anuntram, defeated them with the loss of 125 killed in the field, and captured their gun and all their baggage. Our casualties were 12 men killed and 18 wounded. , a;ater3, the officer in charge of rho canal suddenly turned down the sluice gates, and in a few mo *tits the immen-e body of water which had been drverted from its channel returned to its bed with tiny, and swept away 200 of the mutineers in its course. Ere this mail closes I hope to give you some intelligence of the operatic ns of Walp tie's column, as well as an account of the prep trations for the attack on Lucknow. There are reports of great dissensions in the city, but no one doubts that there will he a severe fight, unless the sepoys are driven out by our bombardment. Maim Singh his sent in an Englishwoman and her child who were in possession, and is making overtures for peace. There is a good deal to be said in his favour, and, although he has probably been playing a double dame, and trying to be fast and loose with us, he certainly in trying times protected our women and dhildr n, and up to September the 24th last year rendered us services. Sir Robert Garrett, who rrived here on his way to Umballa, is not able to det on at present, as the read is not safe. FEB. 13. To-day I went over the so-called intrenchments alt Cawnpore, which were held by Wheeler's g trri non fur nearly three weeks. It was a melancholy eight,—beyond description sad and desolate. The position, if such it can be called, consists of two lofty one-storied buildings, intended, I believe, to be barracks, divided into many rooms with out- Ward doors opening into corridors. There are two deep wel's near these parallelograms, which are at the distance of 100 yards or so from each other, and three detached outhouses on the flanks. These buildings are surrounded by the remains of a miserable trench formed by casting up the earth dug from the soil out on a slope towards the enemy. There is no ditch whatever ; the trench coulanever have been six feet deep, and, as the enemy were all round the station, these open trenches were en filaded upon all sides. The severity of the fire was excessive. Every square yard of the walls is per forated by cannon shot, the roofs are knocked to pieces, and in places have tumbled in en masse. No part f Sebastopol—not even excepting the range of barracks behind the Great Roden, is more battered and shaken than the barracks at Cawnpore. In one small space I counted 73 shotho!es, most of Which were through and through the walls. The party walls were perforated and battered in the same manner. It was a wonder how any one could live inside for an hour. At one angle of a room was written in pencil, "Below this mark young Wheeler was killed by a cannon ball, which took off his head. His blood and brains are - spattered on the wall below." Scraps of music-books and fragments of women's dresses still lie among the tiles, bricks, and filth with which the floors are covered. In another room the following inscription was written on the wall ; it is on the larger building in the corridor, between the fourth and fifth doors, facing to the south, on the side opposite the doors:— " Countrymen and women, remember the 15th oi July, 1857 ! Your wives and families are here, mi:ary I and at the niTo4al of pa,va,ges, who has lavished both young and old. Oh ! my child ! my child ! Countrymen, revenge: !" This is an evident imposition, and is the work of the same cr of a similar hand, in all probability, which penned the inset iption on the walls of the house where the slaughter took place after Have lock's victory. It need not be said that no atrocities or massacres had taken place at Cawnpore at the time and up to the date of Wheeler's evacuation, and the dates prove the falsehood of the inscrip tion, which is intended to onvey the impression that it was written by one of the women - who were in the place. I am therefore inclined to think that the inscription on the walls of the house where also, who the subsequent slaughter occurr ed was an im p osition theby anywal walls, and those t is scarcely possibl e that an y woman in such a scene o f m assacre could have calmly traced with firm hand the words, which for the first time were visible inasmuchrst examined i as ne dit every w ae nut' inch l s i e o e f n upon the walls long after Havelock's advance. A good deal of doggrel writing of various kinds is to be seen, not only on the walls of Wheeler's in trenched buildings, but on those of the bungalows ou the line of march. Just as I turned out of the building sad enough, the crash of a military band broke out close at hand, and, turning towards the road, I saw amidst a cloud of dust the gleam of our bayonets, and then long files of camels and elephants ; my old friends of the 23d and of the Rifles were marching towards the tote-du-pont, and I could not help thinking how different the scene all around might have been had those two regiments been in that place but eight months before—what horrors -averted, what bloodshed prevented, what suffering spared ! FEB. 15. Colonel David Wood, C. 13., commanding the Brigade of Field Artillery, arrived at the Camp of Cawnpore this morning. In company with the guns which came in with the brigadier were the 3d Sikh Cavalry Regiment, the efficiency of whom as cavalry may be best tested by the simple fact that they marched 70 miles in the last two days. They are hardy, active, resolute-looking fellows, well armed and mounted, clad in charkey or dust coloured tunics, with thick turbans on their heads, and equipped with sling firelocks, pistols, and sharp little, broad sabres. Of actual news the re is very aide, has : General Rose's column , from Bombaythebtsare entertained passed Saugor, where some doubts of the 31st Native by the Europeans of the fidelity extraordinary, inasmuch as Infantry, all the more eded and the position of affairs at present stands thus by the enemy, they stood firm when surrey tees. there are no such strong the g eolu u mn or the precise nature The exact site of s 1 believe, at present unknown of its movements ta a prehended that the General in Cawnpore, but itip some opposition from the may have to overcome i. men at one, if not at two points Calpee and Gwa tor and of the 42d Native Infarairrayn, for whose loyalty I Whitelock was at Jubbul on pore on the 9th h ear that General and that if, as was supposed, the enemy march . ow t h a t lor k column were still only , were likely to molest him in his march he m i g ht be delayed for a day or two in disposing of them. On the Goruckpore side of Oude the intelli gence to h O tfthe the , Gr Madraso at the other side of the river, but it was conide n tly believed that they crossed it yesterday (th e 14th o f on the went of show February), and, once in Oude, they were to move towards Sultanpore to co-operate with column in the movements towards Lucknow. .Till certain intelligence rea c h es the Commander la-Chief of the position of these bodied hie FEB. VT. As far as I can guess, the Commander-in-Chief, if all his combinations go right, will cross the.river from Cawnpore about the 25th or 26th, at which time it is hoped we shall hear of the advance of Jung Bahadoor's force in conjunction with the column under Brigadier Frankß, upon some point close to Lucknow, , and, if possible, on the north side of the river, so as to cut the mutineers off in case of ab At from our bombardment. The actual state of affairs as regards these combinations is, as far as I can judge on this, the last post-day for the overland mail from Calcutta, as follows :—Jusig Bahadoor was at Bustee on the 12th inst., and was expected to cross the Gogra yesterday, Franks's column was at Singarapore, on its way to Sultan pore, whence it was to co-operate with the Ghoorkaa werewho the river a k t e T ep an t da be h niin , leaving a division to watch the enemy in the stronghold. of b. t higher cross up,th expec tation of an attack, while the main body WAS pass ing the river lower down.- By waiting for these troop 3 the Commander-in-Chief will have 22;000 infantry around Lucknow, instead of 10,000, and will be able to present a front to the enemy on both sides of the Goomtee. Sir IC Rose's column was still, by last accounts, near Saugor, and the Madras column had reached Jubbulpore, but there were still some portions of it on the road. These troops are not intended to operate with the troops before Lucknow, and belong rather to the second system. of operations, by• which we expect to clear the country of the enemy in our rear, and to re-estab lish the authority of the civil servants of the Com pany. On the north and west orders have been sent to Major Coke to form a movable column of Sikhs, to which an English field battery will be at tached, and to march upon Roorkee. Brigadier Penny is engaged at Meerut in preparing a eJlumn fo active operations from that point ; and Briga dier Seaton wine stationed with an adequate force in Futtyghur, now tenable against any force the enemy may bring. We may thus hope to engage the • attention of our foes in Ruhilcund while the army is before Lucknow. Meanwhile Col. Maxwell, with the 88th, strengthened by an English field battery, is ordered to move up and down continually through that part of the Doab which lies between Cawnpore and Calpee, not resting for a day in the same place. The movable column under Walpole is moving up the road from Cawnpore to Delhi, nearly parallel to the Ganges, in ordtr to meet the Agra convoy f women and children, which reached Mynpoorie yesterday, and may be expected to arrive here on the 2d inst. On the other side of the Ganges the column under Grant is marching upon a place called Futtehpore (in Oude, and on the Cross-road from Oonao to Moordahabad), so as to take in the rear and disturb Cie parties at the gliauts or fords of the liver. When they reach Futtehpore they are to burn and destroy the residence of the Nana, who has resided there for the most part ever since the destruction of Bithoor, and, returning thence towards the Lucknow-road in time for the general concentration of the army at the Alumbagh, they will lay waste the three strongholds of a native cbief named Mirnseet Ali, who has been levying contri butions and receiving the revenue of the district on his own account for the last six months. Thus the country is covered with grand patrols, the enemy are perplexed, and the natives .impressed by the display of our power. . The attack on our position at the Alumbagh, which was to have taken place yesterday, has not been made, and we are told that the regiments in Lucknow are clamouring for their pay. That there. are some chiefs of considerable intelligence among the enemy, we have proof in the fact that they seem to be organising a sort of guerilla warfare, which may hereafter prove very troublesome, if they are not completely crushed be. fore the hot weather sets in. All our sick were sent down towards Allahabad yesterday, and all our guns are across the river. Orders have been given to blow up some buildings here which are the re sort of some fanatic fakeers and spies. The beat in the shade to-day is 85 deg. Outside the tent it is 106 deg., but there is no dust.

I was compelled to leave my last letter* un fin'shed in order that I might avail myself of the opportunity of joining the force in the field at Cawnpore, and oa the morning of the 4th of Feb ruary I crossed the dirty Ganges with infinite satis faction and left Calcutta behind me. Jostling through the swarming crowd of Hindoes, Mussul mans, and Coolies who filled-the railway station, I once more enjoyed that mild personal triumph which one feels in establishing one's-self in the pet conker of a railway carriage, and in a few minutes was traversing the flat and uninteresting district which lies on the right bank of the Gauges. It is too much, perhaps, to say that the district is quite uninteresting to a stranger. The green rice fields, the mud built villaees, the novel birds, the tro pical trees and vegetation, and, above all, the population, for some time attract and engage the attention ; but very soon the monotony of the scene—each grove so like its brother, and each village the model of all—that curiosity is satiated, and is succeeded by something stronger than indif ference. Far as the eye can reach on either side there are the same small patches of rich green amid larger expsnses of baked earth or banged-up water, trigged by little groves of dates, of cocoa, of palm, or by clumps of plantains. Beneath every thicker tope or clump of trees are the wretched looking cottages of mud, bamboo, and thatch in which the natives live. Tee snipe springs skirling from 'he ra trshes which fringe the railway hanks, and along the margins of the tanks staik snow-whi e egrets with long-crests ; the tamer paddy biid, wi looks like a bittern, may he seen investigating the contents of the worth-heaps in the t ewly-dried land ; snakes of various kinds, a large blue jay of beautiful plutmnage, and the saucy king crow, sit unmovingly ou the telegraph wires—th white buzz tid, tie common home kite, and mul-itudes of vul Ines hover over-head. A , whirling cloud of flying foxes d sturbed from their morn ng sleep wheel over the thick tope from which they have been roused by some native in search of a c ocoanut ; and the pretty green flycatcher darts from btancli to btancli incessantly. The hoopal, like our own rare specimens, a large blade and white Siegtisher, poised over a tank like a hawk on the sw , op ; innumerable claw-like rooks frequent the sides of the rail, and the long-winged tern an I the sandeiling are tiusy at wot k by the flooded fields. But at• this season of the year the rice crops are scanty and the tanks are not half full. The country has been baked by the arm, and with the exception of such patches as I have mentioned the whole surface of Bengal is like nothing so much as a vast brickfield. There are bricks by the million on all sides, and people busy making them. There are bricks in heaps, in mounds, in pile. , ' in blocks, all drying in the sun ; tlitre is the hard bare earth one vast brick in itself Water or mould a piece of it, and it be comes a brick in a few hours. And the people naked and biked too—it seems as if not much were re quired to, change them to their original element. The men square-shouldered, flat and thin-chested, hollow-thighed, big-kneed large-footed, lank-heeled, are wadieg about in the tanks, or making bricks, or carrying small loads, or engaged in some very obscure agricultural operation, or doing nothing with equal indifference. They have no clothing but a small piece of cotton cloth, frequently very dirty, wrapped round their hips, and the end brought between their legs. Some wear a turban of the same material ; some their natural coarse black hair • some a long tuft of the same substance, de pending from the back of the head ; others have the scalp half shaved, others again Lave the head shaven clean, so that it almost makes one shudder o see their shining black bald pates glistening in the broiling , sun. Some are blaCker than the darkest Ethiop, others are coloured like the tawny Moor. The, eis one who is busy engaged in pur suing small deer amid the folds of his scanty pan tal.ons—he has three white stripes over his nose, and a sort of 'necklace which comes round under the shoulder, and a stupid and ugly look in his dull, dark eyes; he is, I am told, a holy Brahmin. Another is washing his clothes—and he has no change of linen—ire the tank close by. Little chil dree, boys and girls, quite naked up to the age of six or seven, hurrah and toss up their hands after the fashion of our own juvenile population in greet ing a passing train. The womeii, though more decently clad, seem to be more+ wild and a.vage than the men. Their breasts and heads, and the body dove to the knee, is covered by a thin fold of calico, hut they have huge brass rings in their noses, sainirig ings of metal from the wrist to the elhaw, and thick hoops of the s me material round their aucles. Their highly polished, glittering little babies rile straddle-legged on their mothers' hips as the latter totter about with heavily-laden baskets on their he a -a, doing the work of men, or engage in the very common process of kneading dung gathered in the fields into cakes, to be dried and used as fuel. It is said that on fete days these wretceed-looking people come out in great finery. I can only regr , t that they have not more of those fetes—as yet I have seen none. Through such scenes one weirls for miles past dirty li tie temples of foul and loathsome deities, till we come to Burtiwan. Here we get out to look at the prison, and at the Rajah of Pitch te, who is con fined here on suspicion of treason. It was rainoui ed that his people were coming to rescue him, and Dr. Mouar, Inspector of Prisons, who was in the tour), wit! us, was coming to ascertain the truth of the report, in order that be might, be re- , moved to Calcutta if the magistrates found it was I well founded. The gaol consists of several brick buildings of only one story in height, and sur rounded by a high wall ; the doors are strong and clamped with non—the gaolers armed with cut lasses. On entering the prison we saw a number of men with leg-irons engaged in various ways in the open yard, making coarse paper, grinding grain, pounding bricks—au evil-faced race. We passed into ono of the rooms, and at once found ourselves among a number of brass pots, earthen pots , nar ghile b owls, and silver vessels, which lay on the floor ; inside, a young man about 30 years of age, with coarse sensual features, seated on the ground, was eating rice with his fingers out of a large dish. In front of him, at some distance, with folded arms, stood three domestics in an attitude of profound attention. The Rajah—for it was he—looked up angrily and demanded who we were ; nor did lie seem better pleased when Dr. Mouat told him his business ; but finding his highness so engaged, we at once left his presence. I was somewhat relieved from any feeling of sympathy when I was in formed that the gentleman hears a very bad cha racter in every way, and that he has long been " looked for" by the authorities. Thence we went to the women's ward, a small building, con sisting of two rooms, one opening into the other, with a little yard in front. Some 12 or 13 women of various ages were employed here pretty much as the men. Of these not less than eight were impri soned for murder, mostly of the children of others whom they had been engaged to destroy, and it was with some surprise I he ird that these har dened criminals were confined in the same room with women who were undergoing punishment for very trifling offences. Tile reform so much needed in the prison of Burdwan in that respect will, it is said, be soon in troduced. We arrived at Raneegunge, 120 miles from Calcutta, the point to which the railway has been carried, at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, having been about six hours on the road. All the daks, or post carriages, had been taken by the military au thorities, and there was nothing for it but to remain at the bungalow, which has spine pretensions to he considered as an hotel, till the afternoon of the next day, when, thanks to the kindness of the officers in charge and of the authorities, I was enaele to pro ceed on my way tot Benares. At Raneegunge com mences the system. of conveyance for which the In dian Government deserve very great credit, and by which a e were enabled to concentrate cur troops with certainty and comfort. The men were sent up doily in detachments of 150 or 200 by rail to Ra neegunge. There closed carriages drawn by oxen were provided f r them, into which theywere trans ferred and sent up country at the rate of 35 miles a -day. All along the roid bungalows were prepared, w here the d.etac omelets received their meals with the norm'', corn fort, and where they could rest if neeessary during • the day. These ar angements never failed on any nO casion. The accommodation sheds are clean and alley, and the cooking was excellent, so that the meta, many of whom had served in the Crimean war, arere loud in their expressions of prase. At present th a stream of troops has ceased, but I wits by Sri aeye - witness of the excellent preparations wade a ()apt tain Sadler and by the commissariat officers for tilt •) reception of part of her Majesty's 35th Foot, wl rich arrived there by rail the day after I came. Brigsslier Horaford is stationed in command, and the officers Yoave a small mess, the hospitality of which I have to acknowledge. The only thing worth seeing at 1 Zaneegunge was a camp of elephants, Gharry daks all ready at 4 p.m. Now, gharry daks convey no intelligible idea to the English. The words being translated, mean post carriages. • gharry is an oblong box provided with doors at each side, with slides and small Venetian blinds to keep off the sun, mounted on springs and four wheels, and drawn by one horse. Load for each gharry, 2001 b. of luggage ; driver with "Mail stop guard" on the brass plate of his belt, nothing else English about him ; a turban on his head, quilted cotton tunic, with sash round his waist, tight pan taloons of striped -yellow cotton ; bare feet, slip pers, and French bugle. The party started in four daks (pronounced dawks)—one with Major-General Sir R. Garrett en route to his command at Um balla ; another with his Aide-de-Camp, Major DAlas, and an officer of the Rifle Brigade ; and the other two charged with officets and self. Go along at a good pace over excellent road, about seven miles an hour ; change horses every five miles. FEB. 6. Amid a most migratory population, all on the tramp, trains of oxen, bamboo-built carts, buffa loes, camels, all going, towards Calcutta ' • road very good, through dead-flat country, which looks like the tied of some dried-up sea ; no hedges, no trees, but many bleached bones of all kinds ; inter alia, one human skull ; fields near at hand covered with broken cooking vessels and pots of brown earthen ware ; grass all burnt, earth baked and harl and full of fissures ; villages of mud very squalid ; on a vast plain in front of me a ridge of conical hills covered with votdure. At 12 30 arrived at Ni meaghaut, where there was a bungalow, a building of one story, of brick with tiled roof, portico in front, two rooms for reception of dak travellers, an., out-offices. Officers of oommisssriat and another in charge of convoy : arc stationed there, and kindly share rati , :ns. r. FEB. 'T. At Shergotty about 10 a.m., a large straggling market place. Rehels burnt indigo planters pro perty near this some months a. o. Country as we proceed consists of vast plains imbedded in frames ~f hills, and seamed with watercourses ; not one eighth is bearing cr , ps, or traces of them, accord ing to appearances, which, most likely, are deceit ful. See two wolves in a field and plenty of jackals in the evening. FEB. 8. Stopped at Nohutpore, where the bungalow had been sacked by the Dinapore mivineers—or as the native called them, " the Sepoys." The river is here spanned by a very fine and handsome stone bridge of unusual grace. Many detachments of our soldiers have stopped here and the walls are covered with their writings—one said, " Beware t there are quicksands in the river, one of our men just drowned there !" Two graves in the yard contain the remains of J. Coutts, her M.jes y's 78th Regiment, and of J. S+alworth, h r Majesty's 78th Regiment. The country beyond this station becomes much richer and be ter cultivated—a Sea of young corn and pulse, or grain. We are approaching Benares, and shrines are frequent by the roadsides, which are fringed with fine trees, mangoes, palms, the toddy tree, and others unknown to me even by name. i About 1.30 p.m. we come n sight of Benares, a long, straggling, Turkish-looking town on the left bank of the Ganges, which is here high and pre cip;tous. The river, which is filthy as usual, is crossed by a new bridge of boats. The water is very low. Streams of oxen and carts laden with cotton aro passing across, but just as we arrive the bridge is opened to let boats pass, and our gharris are detained an hour. Nothing very observable of the city from the bridge, except a mosque, with two fine, delicate minarets, about half a mile up the river. The passage and the bridge are under the fire of a very powerful and extensive work completed since last June by Lieut. Patrick Stewart, Bengal Engineers, and others, at the Raj Ghaut. This work dominates the river and overawes the dirty and rebellious town. The houses seem to be composed of the ruins of old houses stuck together with dried mud. The walls are covered here and there with frescoes of soldiers, elephant, and kings, which put one much in mind of the Nineveh-rooms in the British Museum. FEB. 9. Left Benares at 'T a.m. by dak as before. The country outside is one great sea of corn. The road side thronged with people, nearly all with theirfaces towards Benares. Many tanks by the roadside and small shrines and temples—some flindoo—with images of apes and animals of difficult anatomy stuck up for worahip. The pf ople nearly all carry long and stout sticks of bamboo, and walk at a great pace. Some of them carry bamboos balanced hori zontally on their shoulders, their brass pots at one end and a handle at the other. Family groups are frequent—an old man, thin and feeble, yet walking wonderfully well ; a young man, stout and well proportioned but for his hollowed thighs; a woman, with a child on her hip, and a 13,.1 and a girl of six or seven years old. As far as the eye can reach on all sides there is a vast plain, covered with waving green, about two feet high, dotted with rich topes of trees, dry rice grounds, patches of sugar-cane, and popies. All along the road are half-ruined houses at the distance of 300 or 400 yards apart, the high mud walls and enclosures offering strong posts for defence, the high thick mounds of earth round the tanks near the road being available for a simi lar purp, , se and in the h an d s of a resolute enemy most difficult to force. Travelled all day—the road thronged and almost impassable on account of the immense train of bullock hackeries laden with cot ton. It was night before we reached the bank of the Ganges, opposite to Allahabad. The watch-fires by the river's banks gave one the idea of a great camp—passed the GA, g s by a broad brid g e of boats, and drove to the d a k bungalow, which was full ; thence out to a common, where s ome tents were pitched, we were t o ld, for offict-rs, but they • were empty, and so we w en t to another small camp close at hand, where an enterprising individual had established a mess tent, and some small tents to sleep in around, and they © we reposed for t he ni.:4llt, though the jack a l s were n umerous and noisy. It was very cold during th e night in my tent, and I awoke shivering —our p ar ty consisting of Major - General Sir R. Garrett, Major Dallas, his Aide-de- Camp, a Rifle brigade officer, Mr. Sladen, Madras Fusileers, and a medical officer. Fzs. 10. Awoke by the familiar strains of the reveilles of our light infantry bugles and by great cold. By gray light saw the Mh Light Infantry, Lord Mark Kerr's regiment, turning out. They form the out lying, garrison of Allahabad, being encamped on the plains between the fort and the town. After breakfast drove over to the Fort, which is a large quadrangular work, situate at the junction of the Jumna with the Gange s , w hich is nearly at right angles. The two river faces parallel to the sides of these angles consist of high ornamented stone walls —the work, it is sail, of Akhbar, the other two sides towards the Doab having been added by our selves. It is a regular work, of considerable strength, and may be estimated as a first-class for tress. Few guns are mounted, but there is a large arsenal inside, a laboratory, &c. In the great square inside is pitched the camp of the Governor- General of India. His Excellency lives iu an ordi nary general's tent, and all th e principal officers attached to the machinery of State which he has carried with him are under canvas. As an evidence of the state of the country, and of the inadequacy of the military means at the disposal of Government to do all that is desirable, I may mention that the very day before we arrived the report of a cannonade was heard in the Governor's camp about noon, and soon after intelligence arrived that a chief at the other side of the Ganges, near Sura , m, had proclaimed his independence, and ordered a salvo to be fired by his guns in honour of his rajah. The Governor- General has not a man to send to chastise this in solence, nor can he give any acti ve suppor t to Mr. Mayne, who is struggling to maintain the civil au thority at Suraon. * Loat in Avg. is encamped some artillery on the march under Col. David Wood, and the place contains large sheds for soldiers en route. CAWNPORt, FEB. 12. The morning was just dawning, sharp and cold and gray as we approached Cawnpore. 110 , in vain for any evidence that we were on thel of to &great city, though I could see many trao p , the existence of a large camp. It was a , melancholy interest that I gazed with strai r i eyes at each site, known hitherto only by name, as one after another they were pointed out by my com panion. They were all masses of ruins. " Sea that long white building all riddled with cannon shot, and battered on every side, with the little broken parapet of earth before it ; that is Wheeler's intrenchment." Strange as it may appear, from the distance at which we were the whole range of these ill-fated buildings looked exactly like the 1 barracks, or what we called the" White Buildings" 1 of Sebastopol after the siege. The spot was ill chosen for defence—a long quadrangular block of houses on a level plain, without cover, and open to fire from numerous houses all around it. Had the magazine been selected the position would have been more defensible, and the enemy would have been deprived of the guns which they used with fatal effect. Bui; Sir Hugh Wheeler, like most old Indians, despised the enemy who appeared before him, or at all events he disdained abandoning the station as if from fear of anything they could do, and prepared to defend a position which he scarcely thought they would assail. We all know the sad result, which was brought home to us with re newed force when we filled the road from the house to the river with an imaginary procession of men, women, and children marching down to the boats, already covered by the ambushed guns of their cowardly and ferocious enemy. Our road .lay through a flat, baked, burnt-up country studded with trees. On our left lay the whitewashed buildings which Wheeler occupied. Before us, on the right as upon the left, we saw.after a few minutes' drive a scene of tremendous desolation— house after house roofless, windowless, shattered and rent in all directions, the porticoes and veran dahs lying in fragments before them in what once were their peculiar gardens-I . eng rangss of barracks, storehouses, large buugal , we broken up piecemeal, and covering the site with heaps of broken brick, earth, and dirty rubbish—church pierced by shot, and open to every sun ray, the huge rafters alone standing—Government and military Offices mere mounds of disintegrated masonry and the unsightly mud walls of uativeresidences—the stumps of trees, the withered branches of which were lying in every enclosure. Again I was reminded of the lost mistress of the Euxine, and, failing to find a parallel there for all this destruction, endeavoured to recall the descriptions by ancient writers of cities devastated by barbaric conquerors. Cawnpore, however, was only an extensive col lection of detached bungalows and offices spread over an immense space of ground, and here and there concentrated into piles of barracks, magazines, and offices. The utter ugliness of brick when de prived of its greatcoat of stucco, and the greater ugliness of mud walls in decay are there pi ilessly exposed by the hand of the marauder and by the cannot, shot. But fur the sad interest attached to these hideous mounds, which forcibly remind one of the unhoarded spaces in London where improve ment commissioners are at work, labelled "Rubbish may be shot here," Cawnpore would be a most vulgar, commonplace, aggregate of uninhabitable edifices. We drive on a little further and on our right, amid many broken bungalows, there is visible an enclosure with broken walls and shattered gate posts, in the centre of which is a heap of brick, mud, and white plaster about two or three feet high, scattered over 15 or 20 square yards of ground. Close to this heap there are some leafless trees, and on the topmast branch of one of these, just over the centre of the mound, with its foul plumage lighted up by the rays of the rising sun, sits a horrid vulture. A few yards beyond this mats of the ruins of what had once been a house there rose a ramp or sloping mound of earth from the level of the ground to the edge of a circular brick well, the top of which was covered in, and close by the well stood a monumental cross. It was scarcely neces sary for my companion to say, "There is the house and just beyond it is the well." We passed on by the blackened wall of au absurdly fine masonic lodge, and by the ruins of a very spacious building called the Assembly-rooms, just op posite the scene of the butchery ; by a house close to it, in which the Nana lived after the olcupation of the place by the Etepoys • ' and then though the remains of mud houses and bun galows, till we reached the ruins .of the Cawn pore hotel. Everything around us was dilapi dated—not a pane of glass in the broken window, the doors and ceilinizs broken, and here and there the holes made by cannon shot; but we were glad to find that some of the rooms were unoccupied, and that such things as breakfast and dinner were not unknown. Tie scene from the hotel—you must dismiss from your mind all associations con nected with the use of the word in Europe, so far as the outward aspect of the place is concerned — was curious, Ruins—ruins, nothing but ruins, amid which troops of vultures were gorging them selves, mingled with buzzards, kite', "adjutants," adjutants," and carrion crows ; a few tents pitched inside the compound by travellers en route, vast processions of carts drawn by oxen, and files of elephants and camels passing along the dusty plains which were swept continually by blasts that whirled before them clouds of fine earth, brickdust, and the pow dered sus face of the compounds. The first thing that struck me was the enormous number of natives in our service and the prodigious number of anima's in attendance on such a small fragment of our forts. There were, indeed, no less than 55,000 or 60,000 camp followers, servants, bullock drivers, elephant-keepers, grass-cutters, syces, and c amel men attached to this force ; and as yet what I have seen glee s me not the faintest idea of the impedimenta, animate and inanimate, of an Indian army. Before breakfast we walked over to inspect the site of the horrid butchery which has ren dered the sepoy mutiny infamous for over. The house in which it took place is now in ruins ; it was pulled down to clear the grounds for the guns of the tete de posit across the Ganges, and the very outline of the walls is scarcely traceable. It was originally built for and used as a zenana, an enclosed residence, with a court-yard in the centre, in which the stump of a tree *as still stand ing ; and off this open space were the rooms in which the massacre took place. The plaster of the walls was still lying about in patches, but I could not detect any trace of blood. Bits of cloth and of wonsen's dresses were still visible arnid.the rub. bish ; but there were none of the more painful tokens of the dreadful tragedy which had been enacted where we stood. Thole is reason to be lieve that the writing on the plaster, the purport of which . you know, did not exist when Havelock's force entered the place. I have spoken with officers who examined the walls, and every scratch in the side of the rooms, ant'they declare that the appeal to vengeance which is attributed to one of the wretched victims was not to be seen immediately after we returned to Cawnpore, and that it had been traced on the wall by some person who visited the place subsequently. I shall hereafter mention a circumstance which favours that supposition. As there was nothing left of the house but a heap of broken bricks and plaster and some few stumps of 'nick pillars, we walked a few paces further to the well in the rear of house, into which the bodies of the-slaughtered women and children were thrown by the murderers. It is now bricked over, and there only remains a small circular ridge of brick marking the wall of the well, which was not more than nine or ten feet across. Beneath rest the mangled remains of our countrywomen and their little ones, and standing there we could well realise the strength of that indignation which steels the hearts of our soldiers against the enemy. Within a few feet of "the well," surrounded by a small wooden paling, there stands a stone cross on a fiat slab, on two courses of masonry, the inscr i pt i o n o n FEB. 11. which tells its story ;-- Loft Allababad by train at 9 a.m. The bun g alows are all ruined here, and the place was only saved jesty's 32d Regiment, who were slaught e re d near this saved "In memory of the women and ch ildren c f he r Ma by Neill's advance.
