To inect this general feeling, this Society affords to all perms, of whatever class, travelling by Railway In Great Britain, and Ireland, the opportunityof insuring against loss of life by accident whilst so travelling, at the moderate premium of 10s. per cent., in one single payment, for the whole period of life, thereby rendering unnecessary the payment of Annual Premiums, as .:n ordinary Life-Assurance. EXAMPLE.—A person may by one single payment of 51. assure to his family or others the sum of 1,0001., to be paid in the event of his osing his life by railway travelling in Great Britain or Ireland.

On the same (14y Attok was still ours; but surrender to th!. enemy was then, we are sorry to say, very probable, as treachery was known to exist amongst the garrison. "The camp of his Excellency the Commander-in- Chief was, on the 20th instant, 18 or 20 miles distant from Ramnugger, proceeding less rapidly than had been originally intended, in consequence of the slow progress of the artillery and engineer parks, the arrival of which on the banks of the Chenaub is looked for with some impatience. "The second Cavalry Brigade, under command of Brigadier Alexander Pope, C. 8,, with the three troops of the 2d Brigada Horse Artillery attached to it, arrived at Goojranwallah on the 18th, and marched the next day on to Vizierabad. A flank movement from the right hank of the river at that place, sup ported as it might be by a similar movement on the part of Colonel Steinbach, along the left hank of the Jhelum, might succeed in bringing Shere Singh to I.ction with Brigadier-General Campbell. We have little hope, however, of such a movement being thought of. Sir,—ln the Times of Dec. 29, there is a letter signed " %V. Napier, Major-General, Colonel of the 27th Regi. went," in which a quotation is made from Tract No. 4 of the Financial Reform Association, followed by those wurds:—" In opposition to this statement I offer the foi -1 swing facts, ani call upon the public to say, what the honour of that association ran be which thus, knowing the truth, publi s h es th e f a l se; or w h a t i ts titl e to guide and instruct the nation, if in ignorance, arising from want oe duct inq dry, it scruples not to vilify and insult officers having the h onoura bl e c l a i m o f l ong and arduous services to the respect of the people." However desirous of avoiding personal argument the association may he (and that they are so their silence under repeated misrepresentation is a proof), they can• not allow a charge of publishing that which is " false," or publishing any statement, without " due inquiry," to he sande in such a form ms in the Times of the 29th of Deeembr, and pass uncontradicted, being well aware that any title which they may possess to public confi• dence must rest altogether upon strict veracity and care ful adherence to fact s oa t h eir part; while, on the other hand, it is evident in mi nor d eta il s, cons i dering all the difficulties of obtaining precise information upon every particular, errors may occasionally creep into their state ments; but the main facts being derived from authentic Parliamentary documents, aro correct, or, if otherwise, the fault does not rest with the association. 31 - IL COLBUR N'S NEWNOVELS BY DISTINGUISHED IVRITERS.

Policies Issued by lids Society have a twofold advantage :—provi sion for the fainly of the Assured, and an augmenting pecuniary available resource to himself, if needful, while living.

By the operation of the same princip'es, the Society is elabled to afford to the public a plan of Deferred Annuities far more advanta geous than any hitherto offered, whereby an individual, by the con• tribution of a very small annual, monthly, or weekly saving, may se cure either a comfortable provision for himself in advanced age, or, at his option, a large sum of money, or a policy to his family at his death ; while by giving to the purchaser, at any time, the power of borrowing two-thirds of all previous payments, it removes all risk of ferfe;ture from inability to continue premiums, besides affording an ample resource during sickness and want of employment ; and should the purchaser die before arriving at the stipulated period, two thirds of his payments will be returned to his representatives. The following Table Is a specimen of the great and varied advan tages which the judicious application of a small saving can secure through this Society. I. BENEFITS 11.

Mere exalted than mere passion, it soars high above every other impulse of nature, and is not only stronger than avarice, bat mere engrossing even than ambition. No man is exempt from its inluence, or can avoid its sway ; and business, pleasure, philo sophy, and divinity Itself become neglected under the enthralling Power of LOVE, which, unlike most things, increases in intensity with time, until it receives the sacred consummation of marriage. When union does not take place, however, this passion, this fervour, this golden tide of the manliest feelings becomes a deadly poison in the heart, which now darkens, as It before bright ened, all things upon earth. How is it that men, of most un changeable habits, will change at the very altar, and after a life time spent in the fulfilmem, of every engagement, snap the very con tract'asender Which should be roost binding to an honourable mind? It is the effect of conscience. The Lover, by enervation of early habits, or the results of secret disease, knows himself to be disqualified, and dares not enter a state which has been h.stituted by Divine Law for the fulfilmeit if important ends. The wretched condition of such a being must subsequently be beyond measure deplorable ! Loving and beloved, he entails the Most miserable disappointments on the object of his choice, and aeon hinsself a desolation the most horrible, when the simple possession of natural attributes would change the scene, and yield to both a life of u4 allayed happiness.

Time's cloelt. has struck —the act is o'er, And Forty-eight is now no more. Scarce had the dawn of Forty-eight Bee■ signalled by the dial-plate, When round all Europe, like a cloud, Dread elements were seen to crowd. Not only did our own blest isle Lose, fer a time, its peaceful smile ; Not only did the Briton hear, The fearful note of " danger near ;" But every throne was seen to rock Beneath the social earthquake's shock. The mighty nation of the Gaul (A scene more terrible than all), Beheld a king forsake his throne, And seek a country not his own. • Ah hapless France I thy land hath been A terrible—a fearful scene! Adown thy streets where armed men rode, Thy people's blood hath freely flowed; While nearly all the civil world In dread confusion has been hurled. Few years have seen events so great, Se marvellous as Forty-eight ; But happily we still retain Victoria's unmolested reign. Though civil broils awhile were heard, Our realm is now no longer stirred. Peace is restored—Britannia smiles, And order reigns throughout the isles. Commerce and trade once more revive, Ind promise speedily to thrive. MOSES and SON rejoice to say That still their Mart retains its sway ; While palaces and thrones decayed, They still were monarchs of the trade. MOSES and SON, amid the stir, Are firmer than they ever were; And like Victoria, they can say, They grow in confidence each day. Nor have they ever had to fear The changes of the bygone year. MOSES and SON, hi Forty-eight, Have met with favours more than great ; And multitudes have lent their aid In every branch of MOSES' trade. They feel their gratitude is duo For trading favours ever new. And action—better far than word— Shall liquidate the debt incurred. MOSES and SON, the coming year, In brighter colours will appear ; While all their energies combine In signalising Forty-nine. Their efforts to exceed the past, Throughout the ensuing year shall last. They could a trading tale disclose Surpassing far what you suppose. The capital at their command Shall place them on a higher stand; A thousand benefits shall show Thanks for the favours you bestow.

[ADVERTISEMENT.] ANOTHER ENLARGRAIENT OF THE WEEKLY DIS PATCH.—This Journal, at present the largest in exist ence —unrivalled for its early intelligence and uncom promising advocacy of the Rights of Mankind—will be enlarged, on and after Sunday next, the 7th of January, to sixteen pages, containing sixty-four columns, of the same size and form as at present, without any extra charge. By its zeal in the cause of progress, and its staunch devotion to the interests of the people, the Dis patch has become a terror to the upholder of abuses, and a powerful auxiliary on behalf of the oppressed, whose wrongs will always meet with sympathy and ex posure. Encouraged by their success, and anxious to extend the sphere of their political influence and social utility, the proprietors have resolved on the proposed enlargement of the Dispatch, which hereafter will answer the purpose of tour newspapers, and thus accom modate four readers at one and the same time. The columns of the Dispatch will still continue to be enriched by the powerful contributions of "Publicola," " Caus tic," " Censorius." Eliza Cook, and other writers emi nently distinguished for their literary attainments, and whose opinions have ever advocated the cause of the people, in opposition to tyranny and injustice. It may also be observed, that the poor man will always receive logal advice and assistance, as heretofore, from the Dis patch. A beautiful new typo has been cast, on which the Dispatch will this year be printed. An edition of the Dispatch is published at five o'clock every Saturday morning, fur transmission by the first train and morning mails, so that persons residing in towns 250 miles from London may receive it the same evening. To prevent disappointment, orders should be given early to Mr. Rich ird Wood, 139, Fleet-street, London, to whom post race orders may be made payable, or to any of the news venders, in town and country.

As the operations of the force of which Lord Gough is about to take command in person are likely to be for the present mainly on the line of the Che naub, we have designated it accordingly, as it will for some time to come, in all likelihood, occupy a very considerable share of our attention. In our last we mentioned the completion of the bridge of boats across the Ravee ' near Lahore. At this date the brigades of Gedby and Eekford, with the cavalry under Brigadier Cureton, had just crossed. The troops at this time encamped on the further bank of the Ravee, consisted of one light field battery; three troops of Horse Artillery, one of which was Euro pean, or 400 altogether, with 24 guns; one regiment of Dragoons, 500 ; two re g iments of Regular and one of rregular Cavalry, 1,500; with 1,000 European, and 3,000 Native Infantry—or a grand total of 7,000. O n the 3d of November the army received orders to advance in the direction of Vizier abad—Eckford's brigade alone remaining to guard the bridge. The 14th Dragoons joined them, and the whole force rested the first day at Baolee, fourteen miles from their previous position. On the 4th they had a march to Goojranwallah, upwards of twenty miles, over a dry, barren, sandy country. On the way, at a distance, they saw the appearance of a body of men which they supposed to be the enemy, and immediately gave chase. For five miles some 2,000 mounted troops were seen at a gallop or hard trot across the country, when it turned out that it was a portion of th e f r i endly troops under Lieu tenant Nicholson on their way towards Ramnugger that had been mistaken for insurgents. On the sth the tidings of the fall of Peshawur reached them, and here it was supposed they would stop until further reinforced, as the enemy were believed to be in strength close by. They pushed on, however, to Dadun-Singh-ka-Killah, between Viaierabad and Ramnugger, sixteen miles from each, and there awaited some way from the Chenaub the arrival of reinforcements. They had in the course of their ad vance experienced no molestation and seen no enemy, the villages appearing for the most part deserted. On the 9th General Cureton changed ground to make way for Eckford's brigade, consisting of the fourth company of the sixth battalion of artillery, and the 31St and 56th Native Infantry, expected on the follow ing day, as well as with a view of keeping a fine open plain in front for the reception of the enemy in case they thought fit to advance. On the 11th Brigedier- General Campbell arrived from Lahore, bringing with him the 36th and 46th Native Infantry. He had just been appointed to the command of the 4th division of the army of the Punjaub, to consist of Wheeler's Brigade, now also ordered up, with two regiments under Colonel Hoggan. As senior officer with the force he immediately took command, Brigadier Cureton falling back on a divison. Brigadier Campbell was accompanied by Brigadier 11 , neney, by Captain Burroughs, Assistant Adjutant- General ; Captain Bontein, Assistant Commissary- General ; and Captain Wheeler, Major of Brigade. a tr r c g h e e s.

They crossed the Ravee on the 12th, and reached camp without accident or molestation on the 19th. The Commander-in-Chief himself arrived at Ferozepore on the sth, and after three days' stay started for Lahore, where he arrived on the 13th, and encamped at Anarkullee, leaving the sth an d 6 t h brigades, c omman d e d by Colonels Mountain and Pennycuick, at Meean Meer. He had been visited by the Maharaja and chief men of the Durbar, but excused himself from detention on the score of haste. He crossed the Ravee on the 16th, moved on Find- Dad-ka-kote on the 17th, thence entering the Rechna Doab, and taking the command in person. He was expected to reach the Chenaub on the 21st.' He was accompanied by the pontoon train and heavy guns. On the 12th Brigadier Wheeler's force, 4,000 strong, now the second brigade of the fourth division of the army of the Punjaub, crossed the Ravee at Buttnee Ghaut on the direct road from Battala and Emeenabad. The brigade proceeded without inter ruption or annoyance, and reached General Campbell's camp on the 13th. On the 15th the brigade of Colonel Pennycuick, consisting of her Majesty's 24th, and the 22d and 25th Native Infantry, crossed the Ravee, with Major- General Sir J; Thackwell, and the head-quarters of the third division of the army of the Punjaub. On the 16th the bead-quarters of the second division fol lowed, under Major-General Sir W. R. Gilbert, with Cul. Mountain's brigade, consisting of her Majesty's 29th, with the 13th and 30th Native Infantry.. The grand convoy left Ferolepore on the 15th. , It was escorted by the 3d and 9th Irregular Cavalry and 15th and 69th Native Infantry. With thesd there were two 2 4 - pounders, eight 18 pounders, two 8-inch howitzers, with a number oflesser and 9-pounder and 6-pounder guns. Three elephants were hatrieSsed to each of the heavy guns, and did their work to ad miratiorr: There were about 800 bullock carts loaded with amtnunition, 100 rounds being allowed to each gun, with a vast quantity to spare. The keep of the elephants with the force costs about 181. a month each ; horses, about 3/. 10s. ; camels and bullocks, about 2/. Meanwhile General Campbell, abundantly reinforced with all kinds of troops, on the approach of the Com mander-in - Chief,with head- quarters,:changed his catn p on the 17th, mo v i ng f rom Dadun-Sing h-ka-Killah down the river t o A l l i pore, a village within eight miles of Ramnugger, at which latter place the enemy were still said to be in force. General Cureton had been fired upon on the 16th on reconnoitering Alli pore, which was said to be occupied by a strong body of Seikhs ; the Dragoons were ordered out, and a conflict was expected, when it w as found that during the night the enemy h ad found i t conv enient to decamp. A h eavy fi re of artillery was at the same time heard bey on d th e r i ver, the cause of wh i c h was i not known. O n th e morning of the 19th G enera l Campbell, a ccompan i e d by two light guns, a sq uadron of her Majesty' s 14th D ragoons, and another of t h e sth Light Cavalry, pr ocee d e d on a reconnoitring expedi tion in the direction of Ram nugger , passing to the left of Allipore. The bri ga d es of Pope and Wheeler had both joined ; thos e o f P ennycuick and M ounta i n, with the Command er -i n -C hief, were close at hand. His Excellency having t a k en the comman d i n person on crossing the Ravee, f or b ade all attempts t o bring on an engagement w ith th e enemy till h e arrived in the camp; this he expected to do on the 21st. Shere Singh was encamped beyond the Chenaub; he never seems to have been on this side at all since he first crossed on his way up from Moulton. He was said to hare some twenty guns and 15,000 troops under him of all descriptions, a third of them, at least, being very irregular indeed. Against this we have the following magnificent force, consisting, as will be seen, of above 20,000 men, with, at least, 60 pieces of ordnance, many of them of very large calibre. We have three regiments of,Dragoons and four:of European Infantry, all on their war establishment. It was ex pected that we should advance in two divisions, one by Ramnugger, the other by Vi z i era b a d ; when the forward movernentiwill occur, we must not, in these days of procrastination, venture to conjecture. The grand convoy only left Ferozepore on the 15th, and could not arrive before the 25th, and u n til then his Excellency will most likely take it leisurely.

On that day the General had gone out to meet and consult with Lord Gough on the plan of their further advance. The Commander-in-Chief would join the force the next day. The inhabitants of Allipore had refused supplies, and a small force with four guns had been sent to compel them to give up their stores, which proved to be very ample. Shere Singh would no doubt regret having allowed so much to fall into our hands. The country people com plained to our officers of the exactions made from them, and the zoolum (oppression) practised against them by the Shere's followers. The discharges of artillery heard in our camp on the 19th and 20th ap peared to come from a greater distance than formerly ; and it was confidently reported that Shere Singh was retreating. The troops were in high health and the best possible spirits at the expectation of an advance, which, it was thought, would take place immediately Lord Gough joined. The Delhi Gazette of the 25th November reached us yesterday evening, from which we extract the .. : .. . ,LATEST INTELLIGENCE. According to information on which we may rely, " The artillery and engineer parks, with Brigadier Penny's brigade, and the two corps of Irregular Ca valry of Brigadier Ilearsey's brigade, reached Lahore on the morning of the 20th without any material obstacle. In consequence, however, of some of the carriages failing they thought they would be obliged to halt for two days, and so it turned out, as our latest letters mention they were to resume their march on the 22d, so that, taking the same time and direction as the Commander-in-Chief, they will reach Ram nugger, whither they are to proceed direct, on the 30th inst. The number of small guns in the park is six 9- pounders and six 6 pounders. On the requisition of Sir Frederick Currie, Major Tait's regiment of Irregular Cavalry (the 2d), are to remain at Lahore to scour the country thereabouts, in company with a detach ment of infantry and two guns, until the arrival of the 13th Irregular Cavalry, ordered to Ferozepore, it now appears, with the view of marching on to Lahore. A letter of the 91st, just received, says that two horse artillery guns, two companies of her Majesty's 82d (? 53d) and f our companies of the 50th Native In fantry, with some Irregular Cavalry, were to march on the 22d in the direction of Ferozepore. As our correspondent adds that the object of the march was unknown, we should not be surprised to learn that the detachment had been ordered towards Pathankote, especially as we are told that Brigadier Wheeler had been directed to return to the Ravee with his dimi nished force." PESHAWUR. Major Lawrence was, at the commencement of the Moultan outbreak, one of those who most earnestly warned the Resident of the danger of hesitation and delay, and vehemently implored him to show, by de termination and promptitude, that we were prepared at any moment to deal with sedition wherever it might show itself. Ile was then one of five Euro pean officers at Peshawur or that neighbourhood, and hid immediately under him six regiments of infantry, four of cavalry, and thirty-six guns, about six thousand men in all, of whom two thousand were Mahomedans, and considered trustworthy. By the most admirable management, and the coolest courage and determinati on , he had ma nage d t o k eep t h ese men in a state o f subjection, notwithstanding the temptation presented them by each successive budget of tidings of the impunity and success of their countrymen. lie was pretty well aware that there was an amount of inducement to join the insur rection that their loyalty could not withstand. The Bunnoo defection was a severe trial to them—still more so our retreat from Moult= ; the movement of Chuttur Singh, and threatened junction of all the northern insurgents, was more than they could stand. On the morning of Monday the 23d ult., accordingly, the whole of the Seikh portion of the force broke into open mutiny, and on the following day, about nine at night, the Mahomedan regiment of Colonel Meer Jungee, the one on which Major Lawrence most depended for support, fired on the Residency followed by the artillery ; and as the report of the cannonade would quickly have brought down the Seikh mutineers encamped on the eastern side of the town, Major Lawrence considered that the time had come for vacating his position, and that he could do no further good by remaining. So, about an hoer after the commencement of the attack; Major Law rence and Lieutenant Bowle mounted, and with Mr. Thompson (the apothecary) and his wife, under an escort of fifty' Affghan horse, moved out to the gate at the south. All the Punjaubee coinpanieS inside the Residency compound were turning against them, andit was with some difficulty they got out at all. Five minutes more, and they must have fallen into the hands of the enemy. The whole party arrived in safety at Koliat, about ten A.M. on the 25th, where they have since remained unmolested. HAZAREIL Our native correspondent alluded the other day to some hostile operations of Chuttur Singh, under taken somewhere about the 18th or 20th of October, with the view of rescuing some Seikhs kept in check by the Hazareh country people. He added that he had succeeded in his object. The Seikhs, it appears, held a small fort in a valley under the position of Captain James Abbott at Sreekote (we do not know, but suspect this is the Kot ' of the maps about twenty-four miles to the north-west of the town of Hazareh). Captain Abbott beleaguered this fort, the name of which is Sumbulghur. Sirdar Chuttur Singh advanced to Chazee on the Indus, and thence sent a message to Captain Abbott, requesting that he might allow the garrison to leave the fort, and join his (Chuttur Singh's) force. The pro position was readily agreed to, and a safe con duct was guaranteed to the Seikh army. Chut tur Singh, however, had no real intention of giving up, the fort, and - sent private orders' to the garrison to remain in it, promising them to ad vance and drive Captain Abbott from his position at Sreekote, having in the meanwhile secured the neu trality of 300 of the Alulkeeas by seizing their families, whom they promised to spare provided that the men would not fire on his division. On the morning of the 18th of October, he advanced with all his force, at eight A.M., and commenced the ascent of Sreekote. lie was opposed by only 1,500 men, scat tered amongst the rocks and bushes, but his own troops advancing in close columns, suffered so severely, that at two P.M. he withdrew them, after losing, as we have already mentioned, 90 killed and 200 wounded. Of the Elazarehs, who so bravely stood the attack, only eight men were killed and 12 wounded. The garrison of Sumbulghur, seeing the defeat of their friend, set fire to the fort. After quitting it the magazine exploded, and the explosion injured one of the curtains. This completely reconciles the account given by the kassid (who of course could know nothing of the messages that had passed between Chuttur Singh and Captain Abbott) who was quoted by our Lahore correspondent, a❑d the accounts now given. Any person unacquainted with the correspondence would naturally suppose that Chuttur Singh had, at a great expense of life, merely rescued one of his garrisons from a beleaguering force. Maharajah Goolab Singh has supplied Captain Abbott with money, and is sending him guns, by which he hss been and will be enabled to keep to gether an irregular force, and that will be very ser viceable when our troops cross the Jhelum. We deem it fair to give publicity to the following commu nication recently received. Major Lawrence's extra ordinary success in keeping the Peshawur garrison so long in order against all hope, gives him in itself so strong a hold on the consideration of Government that he can afford to share the credit of all that has been done on the banks of the Indus with those to whom equal credit is due:— "I observed in a late number of your paper an edito rid notice of Major Lawrence's proceedings, and amongst other particulars an assertion that ho had secured the fort of Attok, and had seized or destroyed the ferry-boats on the Indus for many miles above and below the fort. I beg to inform you that the fort of Attok was secured by Lieutenant Nicholson, on his own responsibility, and without any orders from Major Law rence, who afterwards increased the garrison ; and that the ferry-boats were seized or destroyed by Captain Abbott's order, and by his people, of whom a party, under Sergeant Denton, unfortunately perished in the execution of that duty."—Delhi Gasette. SINDE. Our latest dates from Kurrachee come down to the 27th ult. There seems nothing of the slightest moment stirring on the Indus. The Golundauze, on their way from Kurrachee to Hyderabad, had been robbed of some treasure, otherwise they were moving on auspiciously. A wing of her Majesty's Sqa Regiment had been ordered from Kurrachee to Sukkur. They were to move so soon as carriage could be provided for them. We regret to hear of the death, on the 16th, of Captain S. Brown, senior captain of the corps—this being the third captain they have lost in as many months. The 29th Native In fantry was also ordered up from Hyderabad so soon as they could be relieved by a wing of the 24th, from Kurrachee, which marched on the 18th ; so that more troops, it seems, are still demanded on the frontier. iVe hear that it is probable the !2d Foot , ;II rrrYi, :ii,p,t,tehol to R - cri-tiellee to , the tith ; the 27th Native Infant ry ply the place of has been sent from Bombay to take that of tie Uth, , gone on to Hyderabad. The Advertiser of the 22d ; informs us that Mr. Pringle, accompanied by his ssistant (Lieut. Lester), intended making a tour through the entire provinces, and that they would leave Kurrachs-e about the Ist of December. The expectation of the speedy return of Major General Auchmuty to Kurrachee was general; but this we think not for some time likely to happen, as w e be lieve head-quarte-rs are to remain at Sukkur 4tring, the absence of the Horse field force on service. Time troops at Kurrachee were healthy, as were also the inhabitants generally. From Sukkur and Roree we have news to the 22d ' ult. Major General Auchmuty reached the latter s';ation on the 10th, and Brigadier D. Capon the former the day previous. The whole of the mortars and part of the siege train, at Sukkur, had been at the request of General Whish dispatched in boats under Captain Hicks, the commissary of ordnance to the field force. Nearly the whole of the field force had assembled. The first brigade, under Brigadier Dundaq, is said to have broke ground on its upward march on the 21st. The whole would be on their way by the 26th, and would be before Moultan by the middle of December. Turnbull's battery had changed their guns at Roree, and commenced their retrograde march to overtake the advance guard on the Bth. The pontoon bridge and its equipments were in boats made fast to the shore opposite Subzulkote. They were in charge of two European officers and one hundred sappers and miners; no instruc tions had reached them as to how they were to act, and it was thought probable they would re main in state quo till the force from Roree overtook them. None of the officers of the Roree force likely to supersede those of Moultan have been permitted to go on with the array. Major Scott, of the Engi neers, is, we believe, senior to Major Napier: so is Major Leeson to the officer commanding the Artil lery. We regret to hear that the latter is suffering from sickness. It seems singular that the Bombay Government should ever have imagined that officers sent up by them would be suffered to supersede those appointed fur special service by the Government of India, considering how little reason we have to ex pect that the supreme authorities will, under any cir cumstances, or on any occasion, give way in favour of their subordinates. General Whish seems to have been most urgent in his requests for aid from Sinde. It is probable he felt by no means comfortable, after the conduct of Shere Singh, with such allies as the troops under Edwardes, Leke, and Cortlandt, in his neighbourhood. The following extract from the letter of an officer with the artillery affords the best excuse we have seen for delay:— " With the field battery we can do much, but entering an enemy's country without them might provoke an attack by masses of irregulars, when to join Whish, and not skirmishing, must be the paramount object to keep in view. Partial actions, or little fights, are now worse than usele.s. Some good general actions remain to be fought, and must be won by us, and our troops must move and fight in masso.e. To scatter them over the l'unjaub will almost ensure defeat; a circumstance to be guarded against—even the smallest disaster—by able forethought and arrangements, so far as . practicable to be made." We seem by no means disposed to rely on the pro verb, " Never venture never win ;" the maxim, "to risk nothing," lately acted on, seems to have been followed by the usual consequent—" and gain no thing." The enormous force we are now throwing on the insurgents seems likely to prevent them mea suring swords with us in the field at all, this being :he very thing we do not want. One of our objects is to show them that, with a fair field and no favour, they have no chance whatever; that it is only in treachery and assassination —behind walls or in sta tions which they Lave selected and fortified—that they can hope for a temporary success. Of the upward march of the " advance guard" of the Roree army, we have the following particulars. The detachment, it will be remembered, consists of the 3d Bombay Native Infantry, 500 of Jacob's Horse, and Turnbull's battery of Native Foot Artil lery (Ist company 4th battalion). They left Roree about the middle of October, and had proceeded as far as Subzulkote, when the infantry and horse were ordered to stand fast, and the artillery to return to Roree to change their light field pieces (six 6- pounders) for heavier metal (four 9-pounders and two 18 and 24-pounder howitzers). They accord ingly retraced their steps, and having been provided with their new ordnance, again set out to rejoin' at Subzulkote, seven marches trolls Roree. In the mean time, an urgent request had been sent by General Whish to the officer commanding the detachment,' to push on with all speed to join his camp • this was; of course obeyed with alacrity and cheerfulness. They left Subzulkote on the 7th of November, and reached Neoshera on the 9th. Lieutenant Mere wether had been detached from the camp to join Major Jacob, who was in the saddle with 1,000 of his horse, in pursuit of the remains of the Bhoogtie tribe, and 1,500 Murrees who had crossed the border and threatened a foray on Kusmore and other towns in its vicinity. Lieut. Malcolm was bn his way from Roree to replace Lieut. Merewether. The roads -from Suk-kur all along to Bahawulpore, are described as excellent—so much so that a carriage could easily be driven the whole way. Water was good and abundant, and provisions of all kinds cheap and plentiful. The advancing force had found the days rather hot, the nights and mornings being cool and agreeable. There was scarcely any sickness in the camp. Dr. Malcolmson, who accompanied it, was indefatigable in his numismatic researches at all the towns passed ; and in an old Hindoo fort which he had discovered in the jungles, he had dug up several very curious and ancient coins of the times of the Dolorahs—at least 1,500 years ago. The towns were large and populous, the houses generally built of burnt brick. The soil was a rich alluvial, and in many places well cultivated. The language in common use was Sindee, but many of the inhabitants spoke Persian fluently. Game was abun dant. The country is described as being a dead level, with straggling low jungle. Bahawul Khan's territory commences at Subzulkote, where what may be termed Shale Proper ends, and the country from the former place to Uoch may be considered as neutral ground betwixt Sinde and the Punjaub. By the 12th tne detachment had arrived at a place named Khan pore, six marches from Fullpheladpore Ghaut above Ooch, where the Bombay column are to cross the Sutlej by a bridge of boats. Turnbull's battery was a few marches behind, but were making double strides to overtake them. Further instructions had been received in camp from General ‘Vhish, directing them to lose no time in joining him. The 3d had only ten men sick, and these slight fever cases. In the early part of their march many of the sepoys (upwards of three hundred) had been laid up with fever, but not a single casualty had occurred. Khanpore is described as a very large and populous town, the houses being chiefly p uc k a b r i c k-b u il t. The whole country is well cultivated, producing grain °fall kinds in abundance. It is from this part of the Bahawul Khan's territory that the greater portion of the supplies for the force now before Moultan is drawn. A large canal, or rather a branch of the Indus, passes close under the walls of the town; this is now running, with a strong deep current to the eastward, diffusing the advantages of a constant supply of water, for the irrigation of the country. The canal continues nearly full throughout the year, and during the inundation the whole country is covered with water. Boats of a large size were close up to the town, busily engaged taking in supplies of all descriptions for Moultan; the town of Khanpore is ten miles from the Indus. By the 17th they had been joined by Turnbull's bat tery," and had reached Chunnee Rhan•ke-Gottee, a large town ten miles from the left bank of the Indus, and one march from Ooch, when they had again re ceived orders from Roree to stand fast till further nstructions reached them ! The criers had been re- ceived, as might naturally be expected, with the deepest disgust by the detachment, who had hoped in six days more to have reached Gen. Whish's camp and sh ared in the toils and hon o urs o f the fight; they still cheered themselves, however, with the hope that orders from Lord Gough would speedily reach them directing them again to hasten forward to Moulton, without awaiting the arrival of instruction s from the rear. se Captain James, of the Sukkur c ollectorate, who had been deputed to collect provis ions and fo rage rr h e of th o town for cl the thou s Rorer force, was at Abinedpore on th e 3d N ovember. lie had taken quiet posse ssion of the fort, wh ich is described as a better one than the generality p met with in the sur rounding country, a:cribed as a tole rabl y g ood one, but the country t.

It was also necessary to remark at this point that while the public might suppose the sum of 315,486/.45. 4d. to be expended in clothing the army, as the common-sense reading of the estimate would lead them to believe, such was not the case. The following words were used:--" The colonels by whom the clothing is provided are in most instances general officers, who obtain the head colonelcies of regiments to provide the clothing as a matter of trade and profit. They are in the most literal sense of the expression, dealers in clothes. When a regiment goes abroad, becomes sickly, and is thinned by death, the clothing colonel to whom it belongs, and who remains at home, receives the money not required for dead or sick men, as his own emolu ment." Is this that which is "false?" Is this the insult? If it be false, it is worse than an insult. If it be true, those who profit by the system must bear its odium. It is true. Let us look at it more closely. Major-General Napier signs himself " Colonel of the 27th Regiment." A reference to Hart's Army Register shows that he "obtained his regiment" on the sth of February, 1848. Consequently, he has not yet had it one year, and may not know how much " emolument " (the military word) or profit (the trade word) he will receive. Circumstances, however, will guide him to form an estimate, or any one else caring to know. Is the 27th regiment serving in an unhealthy climate? And is its numerical strength being reduced by death? If reduced, how far is the number short of the full complement for which he has drawn clothing money? The latest official returns published are those of " Public Salaries," 1848, referring to the previous year. Turning to these, it is seen that the officer, a Lieutenant-General, who was then Colonel of the 27th, had his pay and emoluments re turned by the War-office at 1,214/. 45., the pay as Colonel being, fur such a regiment, about 5001,; the amount of emolument, or profit, out of the money voted by Parlia ment, under the head of clothing, as quoted in Tract No. 4, would be 714/. 4s. This regiment was evidently not at its full strength then, else the emolument would have been only about 500/ , which, with he pay of 5001., would have given the minimum income from this source of 1,000/. had the regiment been as much reduced as the 22d was in 1843 (Sir Charles James Napier's regiment), the profit would have been as high as 9421. 9s. Id. The pay of 500/., added to that sum, gave the clothing colonel, who then held it, the amount, according to the Parliamentary document, of 1,442/. 9s. Id. It is to be remarked that most of these general officers have other official incomes than the pay and emoluments of the clothing department. Several made " no returns," but as nearly as an average can be calcu lated, the emoluments from clothing are 75,0001. The estimate, as voted by-Parliament, is therefore this much more than necessary. And the pay of the clothing colonels is 86,850/. 7s. Gd., varying from 1,8001. in the household cavalry, to 5001. in the infantry of the line. This experience is likewise unnecessary; if Sir William Napier describes the duties of the colonels truly, they seldom see, may possibly never have seen, their regi ment; they have no control over the quality, pat tern, or issue of the clothing; in short they do nothing— they are permitted to do nothing. Yet, probably, in respect of them, as the board of general officers who inspect the clothing, and protect the regiments from having an inferior article imposed on them, the Major-General proves too much. No imputation is cast upon that board of officers in the Fi nancial Reform Tracts ; they are not hinted at. But as the Major-General chooses to appeal to their exis tence as a proof that a check upon the issue of cloth ing is established, it is not improper to point to the fact in return that eleven out of nineteen of the members of that board are in receipt of profits from clothing besides their pay as colonels, of sums varying from 5501. to 876/. each. General Napier's assertion, that the clothing in the British army is better than in other services, proves no thing. Be it what it may, it is worse by 75,0001. a year or thereabouts, than the country pays for. Its having been the same from time immemorial only tends to show the necessity for improvement. Another part of that statement which Sir William Napier pronounces in the Times to be "false," was, that in cases where no profits arise to the colonels, because of the superior quality of the clothing, allowances are made to them accordingly. The official returns bear out this statement to the very letter. The clothing is more costly in the Life Guards than in the Ist Dragoon Guards of the line ; and the pay of the clothing colonels is 1,8001. each. It is more costly in the Ist Dragoon Guards than in the 2d Dragoon Guards, and their pay is, in the former 1,1001., while in the latter it is 1,0001. The clothing is more costly in the cavalry than in the in fantry, and so 1,0001. and 900/. of pay is allowed in the former instead of 5001. and largo profits in the latter. Moreover some regiments, as the Grenadier Guards, instead of allowing a profit on their clothing, require, s: in the estimate, s p ec i a l a ll owance to t h e co l o nels, borne on the establishment, 1,0931. Bs. 10d. And as t he 1 1t h Hussars, who se scar l e t t rousers are extras, requireoo and obtain in the estimates suc h an item as the f ing :—" Allowances to certain c avalry regimen t s fro cover , deficiencies in the allowances for providing cl othing, &c., 1,8501." but which he referred to, and w ould It was such items as these that line d i t d h n p o r t ec q ed uo i t e g paragraphs, which Sir William Ns or ier d P publi o have the feE, 0 explain (and in doing so detached, to do duty by believe to be ' i ' c o h he did quote, ceased to have its , rwritten) that though a certain sum itself.

The tracts of the association, , di d not say they had, nor allude to them in any respect. But it mentioned quarter-masters of regiments as having a pecuniary interest in serving the soldiers with those articles. It might have mentioned others acting between the quarter-masters and the privates, but did not. It stated that the clothing colonels of cavalry regiments are also horse dealers; that they have a profit on colts and fillies purchased young, and fed at the regimental charge. The expression " horse dealer" may be unpalatable, but it is true. Those portions of the Major-General's letter stating how the soldier is encouraged to complain to the in specting general, and, if he heeds not, to the Commander in -Chief, of the conduct of his regimental supe riors, or to his commanding officers, of any other officer, do not come within the range of business before the Financial Reform Association. But if any soldier in the ranks be asked his opinion on those points it will differ altogether from that of Sir William Napier. A soldier who reports his non-commissioned officers to their superiors, or any of the re g ime n t a l officers to their _ ho superiors, is a " marked man." He makes to himselfi a bed of thorns, on which he must lie so long as i s n the regiment —so it is said. Sir William F. P. Napier concludes thus: " Such, air, is the system established for the protection of the soldier who has also the guarantee (no slight one in the British army) of his officer's honour as a gentlemen. Will th ose persons who have so wantonly and so recklessly assailed that system and that honour, make public their system t wards the poor labouring men, Women, and children, from whose ceaseless toil they derive their own riches? Will they publish a true detailed account of their truck system'? Will they state what oars, what money, what
