THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, AUGUST 17, 1850. LITERAT LIRE. TEN YEARS IN INDIA ; or the Life of a Young Officer. By Captain A. Hervey, 40th Regiment of 111adras Infantry. 3 Vols. Notwithstanding the great number of works which have been written on India, Captain Hervey's " Ten Years" possesses to a certain extent the merit of novelty. Not desiring so much to render his obser vations interesting as to make them useful, the author has, in ensuring the latter object, effected the former also. No guide-book could possibly be more valu able to the young voyager, and few travellers' tales could prove more entertaining to the general reader than the very minute and interesting details re corded in the ten years' experience of Captain Hervey. The minuteness of these details it is that constitutes their principal and most valuable attraction ; for example, in the opening of the first volume the advice respecting the voyage out and the first landing in India is calculated to be of immense ser vice to the inexperienced, because, instead of general ising, it enters into particulars and what to many may seem very trivial details. Thus the Captain notes down for the benefit of his voyaging comrades — It is a very foolish thing to unpack your guns, rifles, or pistols at sea. When once subjected to the sea air, the rust accumulates in a wonderful manner, and all the subscquent care bestowed on them will not keep them clean. Both my guns were much injured by the exposure, and I regretted afterwards ever having opened them." Again, on arriving at his destination, the strati , ger is strongly warned against engaging any of the eager crowd of servants seek ing masters, who gather round ; ,the unwary, and with prostestations innumerable boast of their own honesty and devotion,:—" Spose, jar, you yemploy the me, I be very good servant for master! I die for master! Spose master want shoes ; I make 'em from my roan ishkeen ! and master want to drink, I give my roan blood ! I poor man, sar, but I honest man too, sar"—such an address being,:of course, nothing less than a pre'ude to a system of fraud and thieving, it the " honest man" b 3 so fortunate as to meet with a credulous dupe. It is, however, quite unnecessary to enumerate the many most useful and most amusing hints which are here to be found collected. Any persons about to follow the author's example cannot do better than examine the records of Captain Hervey's experience as a necessary preparation to entering upon ten years in India on their own ac count. On the other head those, who, staying "at home at ease," prefer crossing the Line only in ima gination, will find in these three volumes a very plea sant and interesting introduction to the various pecu liarities of manners and customs, and scenes and inci dents which characterise a life in India. The style of the whole composition is of that easy and colloquial character which at once places writer and reader upon friendly and familiar terms. COURT CIRCULAR. His Excellency Count de Mensdorff-Pouilly and Count Alphonse de Mensdorff-Pouilly took leave of the Queen and Prince Albert yesterday morning, on their departure for the Continent, and left Bucking ham Palace at ten minutes before ten o'clock for the London-Midge terminus.

COWES, ISLE OF WIGHT. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) COWES, AUGUST 16. ROYAL YACHT SQUADRON INTELLIGENCE. THE CLUB CUP. This match did not close till nearly three o'clock this morning, when the Arrow, Thomas Charaberlayne, Esq., came in, followed by the Freak ; then came the whole fl(eP, of yachts, cracking on with a spanking breeze. THE DUKE OF MARLBOROUGH'S CUP. This was the most interesting match that has been witnessed hero for years; till within two minutes of the yachts coming in, no one could tell which would be the winner. The contest was between the following fine schooners:— The Destiny, 107 tons, William Wells, Esq. The Titania, 100 tons, G. R. Stephenson, Esq. The Wyvern, 205 tons, Duke of Marlborough. The Mirage, 126 tons, Marquis of Ormond. The Ballerine, 117 tons, John Davenport, Esq. They started at eleven o'clock, with a fine breeze from the N.N.E., the Titania taking the lead, which she kept till they had got back to the entrance of the Southamp ton river, when the Wyvern seemed to have the advan tage, and they all passed the stilling vessel nearly to gether; the first being only one length ahead of the second, the third not being halt a length astern of the second, and the fourth having her bowsprit its whole length over the third. Club time as follows: h. m. s. ... 5 26 50 ... 5 28 20 . . 528 30 ... 5 28 40 ... 5 30 0 Destiny ... Titania ... Wyvern Mirage ...

The half-yearly meeting of the shareholders of this company took plack yesterday; at the Euston Station, for the purpose of receiving the report of the direc tors, and on other business of the company. Sir Harry Verney, the chairman of the company, took the chair at two o'clock, and the minutes of the last meeting having been read and confirmed, Mr. E. WTATKIN (the secretary) read the following report of the directors:— " The accounts which accompany this report show that the sum of 1,033,4691. 6s. sd. has been received in calls, loans, &c., and that 1,031,7904 6s. 10d, has been expended on the construction of the railway. " The directors are happy to announce that the Bill for a deviation of the line between Islip and Oxford re ceived; the Royal assent on the 17th May last, and that they contracted for the works authorised by that to be constructed on the 3d August, on satisfactory terms —one of the conditions being that the line from Islip to the Banbury turnpike-road, within 2 miles of Oxford, shall be ready for opening on the Ist of November next. " In accordance with the intimation to that effect con veyed in their last report, the line from Bletchley to Banbury was opened, under the management of the London .aud North-Western Company, for passenger traffic on the Ist May last; and it is now being used also fur goods and mineral,.. The station accommodation for the heavier kind of traffic, however, is not quite completed, but it is rapidly proceeding. The directors propose to open the Oxford line as far us Islip on the 16th September next, and to open further to the Ban bury road on the Ist November next. Tho remainder of the line will be completed and opened early in the sum mer of 1851; and so soon as this has lawee effected the formal 1 -use of the undertaking to the London and North-Western Company will be duly executed, and the proprietors of this company will thenceforth receive out of the funds of the leasing company the dividend gua ranteed to them by their Act of Parliament. " The directors have to report a threatened violation of the Oxford and Rugby Act, 1815, prejudicial to the inoirests of this company, a violation all the more to be deprecated, n= it seems to have been countenanced by permission of the Railway Commissioners, given possi bly under a misapprehension of the circumstances. Tho (lite:lora have remonstrated with the Railway Commis sioerrs, and have again urged upon the Great Western Cconpeny the preparation of those means of junction, and facilities fo. interchange of traffic which Parliament pro videri for; hitherto however no positive measures have taken place." _ Tik. CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report, regretted t►he disagreement which had taken place between this company and the Great "Western Cornpany, but he believed that in the course that had been adopted the directors had done the best they could for the proprietors and the public. After some discussion, the report was agreed to. The auditors were re-appointed. A vote of thanks was unanimously carried to the Rev. Mr. Freemantle, a gratuitous chaplain on the line of the works of the company; and also to the secretary and the chairman, and the meeting sepa rated. NORTEAMPTON AND BANBURY. The half-yearly meeting of this company was held yesterday at the Euston Hotel ; Mr. E. H. Farwell in the chair. The report stated that the circumstances of the company remained exactly in the state which the directors reported to the last meeting, and until the effect of the Railway Abandonment Bill just pawed has been duly weighed as affecting the interests of the company, the proprietors cannot determine the course which may be best fur their interest to adopt. In the meantime the directors will continue to give their best attention to the interests of the company. The accounts showed that 28,3211. bad been received, and 2,8981. expended, leaving a balance of 25,4231. On the motion of the CHAIRMAN the report was adopted. Mr. GEACEI said they were greatly indebted to the directors for the prudent course they had adopted in not proceeding with the undertaking, and thus avoid ing an expenditure which might have been unprofit able, and otherwise injurious to the interests of the shareholders. The proceedings terminated with a vote of thanks to the chairman and directors. NORTHERN AND EASTERN. The half-yearly meeting of this company was held yesterday at the Bithopsgate Station ; Mr. R. Pater son in the chair.

The half-yearly meeting of the company was held at,Cork on Wednesday;; Major Beamish in the chair. The report stated that the result of one year's work ing of the half of the line between Bandon and Bal lintiassig had been encouraging, and that the other half of the line, to Cork, was in satisfactory progress. Applications made for 1,080 forfeited shares, at 121., would enable the company to more than meet its lia bilities. The whole line, on a revised estimate, would cost 250,0061., or only 10,0001. above the original es timate. The receipts for the last half-year had been 1,6961., and the expenditure 845/. THE TWELFTH OF AUGUST. This day, so important in the calendar of British sports, was throughout this district so sultry, that none but eager sportsmen, anxious to make an early bag, aired to expose themselves and their dogs to the intense heat. The following extract from a letter, by one a a party who were up by peep of dawn, graphic ally describes their movements, representing, we have no doubt, the feelings and experiences of many others " out" on the moors :—" At two o'clock on the morning of the 12th inst., we rose, after rather a rest less night, disturbed by dreams of wet and foul wea ther, which delusion we were glad to find arose from the dripping of a cistern in the passage adjoining the room in which we reposed. At the hour of rising the morning was darkish, but one hour after our hearts mercury suddenly rose on observing the beautiful broad streaks of the pale grey horizon, tinged here and thire with a deep warm orange colour, which gradu ally and imperceptibly but steadily chased away the heavy leaden clouds of the former night, half threaten ing rain. By this time—three o'clock—the exciting cro ee of the cock grouse could be heard all around, as if in defiance, giving the cry of forwards.' At three o'clock we started, and having not forded but waded the river, in order to invigorate our limbs, we ascended the opposite steep bill, cast loose, and in a few minutes had a steady point off all hands. The birds lay well, and suffered accordingly. At half past five a very warm close mist surrounded 119, indicating the heat of the coming day, which mist in its turn was dispelled by a broiling sun. No wind, and of course no scent. The dogs ranged well, but running clean over the birds, which frequently and in great numbers got up close behind our heels, and in the very spot the dog had crossed but a moment before. By eleven o'clock, from the great heat, the dogs were completely grueled, and we were obliged to call a halt for two hours. The birds were very numerous, in large coveys, and without an exception stronger and in better condition than last year. We subjoin a few notes of the 12th :—Col. Crack low, at Lairg, had fifteen brace and four bares. Mr. Phillpott, at Clune, twenty brace. A Mackenzie, Esq., nine and one half brace, at Balmaduthy. Captain James Wardlaw, at Dalmigavie, shot fifty-one brace, all good birds. Mr. Williams, at Corrybrough, twenty-two and one half brace. Sir John Carnac, at Dochgarroch, nine and one half brace. At Balma caan, Mr. Stewart, keeper, shot eleven and one half brace yesterday in an hour and a-half. At Moy hall, Donald Macbean, the Mackintosh's keeper, killed sixty-two brace, one pair of teal ducks, and four hares—all with one gun, and over two dogs.-- Inverness Courier. FATAL LEAP FROM BLACIEFRIARS•ERIDGE.—Yes terday morning, about four o'clock, a woman, apparently about thirty-five years of age, but who at present is unknown, mounted the parapet of Blackfriars-bridge, near the second arch of the Surrey side, and plunged head forruost into the river. In her de-cent her head came in violent contact with one of the piers, which fractured her skull and caused the brain to protrude from the ears. :der thighs and legs were alq) fractured and several ribs were broken in consequence of the poor creature striking the abutments of the bridge. Mr. Ware, the night pierman, instantly put off in a boat to render assistance, but a Lambeth liOltertnan, who was navi gating a barge laden with straw , was passing under the arch at the moment, and who had a narrow escape of being killed by the woman falling dose to his head, managed to lay hold of her and pull her ashore. She was then alive, and a stretcher having been procured she was forthwith re moved to St. Bartholomew's Hospital, where everything was done for the unfortunate woman that; the nature of the case required, but without any beneficial di' a:t, and in the course of ten or twelve hours death terminated her sufferings. The deceased, it is supposed, committed the rash act owing to destitution. The only articles of w.!aring apparel she had on were an old Orleans (green) gown and a cotton chemise. She bad a pair of old boots on but no stockings, and the body appeared in a very emaciated condition. Lord Stanley arrived at the Angel Ann, on Wed nesday night last, where he remained until the following morning. He then proceeded to view the racing stud of Mr. John Scott, A righurne..Doncoster Chronicle.
