Other telegrams were last night received at the Foreign-office, at the East India House, and from the correspondents of some of our morning con temporaries. The public despatches, and some of the others, will be found in another part of our impression. They do rot materially alter, al though they cast great additional light on, the intalligence contained in The Sun of yesterday. We know more now about the proceedings of General HAVELOCK and his truly gallant hand. The telegram of yesterday only announced that he had " defeated the rebels at Abipur-al•Gunge, on the 29th and 30th of July, taking nearly all their guns," and that " he expected to reach Luck now on the 31st July." The natural interpre• tation of this obscure and confused statement was, that the conflict of the nth and 30th July had- taken place at Bithoor-al-Gunge, the strong hold of the miscreant NENA SAHIB, who was pursued up to Bithoor by HAVELOCK. It now appears that the cowardly assassin had not ventured to meet the victorious troops, even with all the advantages of an entrenched and for tified position. He had fled before them in dis may, and on•the 17th July his Fort was occupied without even an attempt at resistance. The san guinary rnffians • who embrued their hands in the blood of women and children would not dare to meet in fair fight armed men, although less than onc-fifth of their number, who were trebly armed in the justice of their quarrel. Of course, the fortresa.was completely destroyed, and no less than 1 3 pus . were captured, an important addition to our•artiliery, and a still greater loss to the rebels. °ll t i ltat occasion NENA. SAHIB escaped. But his in kru°'ati Career was rapidly drawing to a close. 11° * ;uld " NasiblYhope to escape the avengers of blood—the ministers of a stern justice that were tracking his footstep, and determined to inflict exemplary justice o n the most guilty of all who raised their felon hands against those whom they were bound to protect by every tie of honour and leanly feeling. It is said that after his fli , ht from Bitboor, ho destroyed his entire family and then, committed suicide. This is by no means improbable, and it would j u stly be regard e d af , higrial act of retribution tliat w.)t - tbl strike terro r into the whole body of the rebel. wa4 nearly a fortnight after the capture and diitruotion of Bithoor that_the bait' 3S of the 29th ancl 30th July were fought. C3lonel NEILL bad • joined on the . 22d July, and it was at 'Buper El'Ounge, about 18 miles from Cawnpore, Du the road to Lucknow,- that they encountered the mutineers more than 10,000 strong, whoin they completely defeated and put to flight, taking 15 guns. This would make no les3 than 28 cannon captured from the enemy, a most important achievement under the circumstances of the case. It would seem also that anothet battle had taken ?lase the following day, in which HATELOCK had again triumphed over his opponents. It is more than probable that these vicenries were gained over the besiegers of Lucknow—perhaps assisted by some of the fugitive troops of NENA SAHIB. If this conjecture be well-founded, but little re mained to be accomplished for the complete re lief of Lucknow, and the rescue of its gallant gar rison and the fugitives who had there sought shelter and protection in the dark hour of danger and distress. Colonel NEILL had remained at Cawnpore while General HAVELOCK was marching on Lucknow. This adds additional confirmation to the belief that the work had been virtually completed, or he would not have left such valuable auxiliaries behind him. There is one ambiguous passage relating to Cawnpore. The telegraph received at the War- Office contains the following passage Cawn pore butchery confirmed. No authentic details." This probably refers to what had already been known in this country respecting the execrable breach of faith of the Mahrattan fiend. After the time, when it had been re-occupied by HAVE LOCK, there would have been no opportunity for the rebels to have massacred the English, nor, we regret to say, more victims to be destroyed. All that fell into his hands had been involved in one common destruction. There were very conflicting rumours respecting Agra. In the account that reached the Foreign Office on Sunday evening it was stated that "at Agra the Europeans remain in the Fort, well able to hold out, but anxiously awaiting relief 1" In that received last night the announcement was —"Agra—Nothing important since battle of sth July." But another telegram, from Mar seilles, says—"lt was reported that Agra had fallen into the hands of the rebels." This would indeed be a terrible catastrophe. As we have already stated, there were more than 5,000 fugi tives, many of them women and children, exclusive of the garrison, and their de- struction would have been a fearful blow. We shall, however, have the mail itself to-morrow, and shall then be enabled to examine more closely the evidence on each side. From Delhi we have fuller tidings. We learn that there had been sorties on the 14th, 18th, and 23d, which had been repulsed with great loss to the reb: is ; unfortunately there had been 500 killed and wounded on our side, amongst whom was Brigadier-General CHAMBERLAIN, severely wounded on the 14th, but doing well. Matters were, howeyer, rapidly approaching to a crisis at the head-quarters of the insurrection. On one side the troops under VAN CORTLA.NDT were approaching, from another those under NICHOL soN, while _HAVELOCK'S were to move onward, after the relief of Lucknow had been accomplished. These will be truly valuable reinforcements, suffi cient to warrant a general assault. Sir COLIN CAMPBELL, too, will probably be there ready to participate in the toil and glory of the achieve ment. • We referred yesterday to most of the remaining intelligence. We do not regard the mutiny at Rola pore of the 27th Bombay Infantry, as indicating a general disaffection amongst those who have hitherto remained faithful to their salt. It must be remembered that it was in the Southern Mahrattan country that it took place, and we believe that there were many Mahrattan Musul mano in the ranks, who regarded the miscreant NENA SAHIB, as their legitimate chief. The great bulk of the Bombay army are, however, low caste Hindoos, and there has as yet been no reason to doubt their fidelity. Madras had continued llyal and free from disturbance, and the reinforcements arrived at Bombay, will terrify the conspirators and prevent the explosion of any plot that may have been entered into. If Agra be only safe, we shall continue perfectly satisfied with the news —which, taking all things into consideration, is as good as could reasonably have been anticipated. Sugar, Mr. SPEAKER—is said to have been the commencement of one of PITT'S most famous orations in the House of Commons. Cotton, Mr. Bunn—may be described as the exordium of the latest and one of the most remarkable of the Rev. Dr. LIVINGSTON'S many admirable discourses in reference to the evangelisation of Africa ; and the extension to the population of that vast continent of the double blessings of Civilization and Chris tianity. The date of this really notable discourse was Wednesday, the 9th instant—the rostrum for its delivery was the platform of the Town Hall, at Manchester—the occasion for it, was the public reception there and then given to that distin guished Traveller by the representatives of three very important mercantile bodies, viz., the mem bers of the Chamber of Commerce, of the Commer cial Association, and of the Cotton Supply Asso ciation. The sympathy expressed by the men of Lancashire in the elevating and harmonizing de signs of a practical philanthropist like Dr. LIVING STON, cannot for one instant be regarded by any rationally reflective observer as the mere compli mentary utterance of an empty and frivolous demonstration. It constitutes, we doubt not, in his own view, perhaps of all the most substantial encouragement he has yet received since the period of his return home, to find an universal welcome accorded to him upon the hearths and in the hearts of his fellow-countrymen. An encou ragement even more exhilirating and inspiriting in its way than that directly afforded by her MAJESTY'S Government. For the frank and cor dial extension of that right-hand of industrial England proves incontestibly to Dr. LIVINGSTON that he has already insured to himself the cc operation of the mercantile world of this country in all his future enterprizes. And that aid in particular is to him, and to such as him, one of the very first, or, as the phrase absurdly is, of the very last importance. Dr. LIVINGSTON himself distinctly avowed as much on Wednesday, when replying to the congratulatory Address of the President of the Chamber of Commerce and Ma nufactures. Ho declared that he was so fully convinced of the elevating tendency of lawf u l com merce, that be proposed (of course in reference to Africa) to devote the next few years of his life to special efforts in that direction ! Meaning that, upon his return to the scenes of his former perilous adventures, he would strive assiduously to forward in every possible way the development of commercial relations b. - tween the British Isles and the African continent. As a missionary he sees that with lawful commerce the believer in Christianity may the most readily diffuse among the people of those arid and hitherto O scarcely accessible regions, the benefit influences at once of religion i'and civilisation. Ha is, there fore, eager to ret urn to the land of his former labours, to . the pathway trodden in his earlier piigrimage—is e „h ig the badge of trade as his scollop shell—leani ng npon no broken reed, but upon th e good and s t a l wart staff of commerce. Naturally enough the 'cute men of Lancashire are thereupon all curiosity to know the precise " terms " befor e it, na ture of the --ens—term s accordins to which they have really st.tws mo merit a most encouraging prospect of fillin g t h eir 3 thst they are gratifyin g pockets at the very tral their benevolence. They want forthwith to know .r-ftx.....-:.,sitr N, LO,NDON, all about it. They want to overhaul the samples, to weigh them in the balance, to test them by all the rapid and refined tests of their mercantile experience. SDr. LIVINGSTON is, therefore, at once, good humouredly but searchingly catechised. Mr. CHEETHAM, M.P., stands before him on the plat form like an embodied note of interrogation. The travelled missionary is called upon to evidence before an attentive audience of merchants and manufacturers, powers of memory in some respects more extraordinary than those formerly displayed by GEORGE BIDDER, or those now-a-days exhibited by poor purblind JACQUES WINCKLEE, the Swiss calculator. Dr. LIVINGSTON has recollections, however, to fall back upon vouchsafed to not one other man among all the millions of his contem poraries. He can laugh to scorn every system of Mnemonics, however ingenious. He can snap his fingers in the face of Major BENIOWSKI and his competitors. He has witnessed sights with his own eyes that to behold once is to remember ever afterwards. Recalling some of the more curious among his many strange remembrances, he begins his recital. It is the country traversed by the great Zambesi River that he is describing—the fruitful African regions traversed by that Silent Highway and irrigated on either hand by the waters of its numerous tributaries. He talks of pasturage there, the grass of which flourishes to such an astounding height that when he rode through it, seated upon the back of an ox, he had to hold his hands above his head to keep it out of his eyes ! He tells of wheat grow ing there the ears of which extended from his waist to the tips of his fingers ! The soil where these Brobdignagian blades of grass and corn abound, he describes as fertile almost beyond the limits of credulity. All it requires, he declares to be simply this—that a slave woman with a little hoe should make a little hole in the ground, drop a few seeds in and push back the soil with her foot. As a consequence of which, he says, there is a crop of wheat four months afterwards ready , for the sickle I This simple operation of the hoe and the toe of the slave woman answering all the purposes of subsoiling, ploughing, draining, lim ing, and manuring ! It is for all the world the realization of the land of plenty once wittily de scribed by DOUGLAS JERROLD as a region so rich and so sympathetic to the toil of the husbandman that you had only to tickle it with a hoe and it laughed into harvests ! So it really is with Africa all along the verdurous course enriched by the fattening current of the Zambesi. There—Dr. LIVINGSTON tells us, not upon hearsay but from his own personal knowledge—abound twenty or thirty different kinds of fruits altogether strange to the palates of European epicures ; fibrous pro ducts finer and stronger than flax ; elephant-ceme teries of ivory I countless apiaries full of beeswax! iron ore, copper ore, even malachite Mr. CHEETHAM asks him a pertinent question very much like the humourously impertinent one CHARLES LAMB put to a correspondent of his, to whom he was writing all the way to the then re gion of the penal settlements in Australia—" Do you grow your own hemp ?" Well, replies Dr. LIVINGSTON to his Querist—lf the Africans don't grow hemp they grow a number of fibrous•-plants, and among them buaze, the fibie of which is worth from 501. to 601. a ton. Above all says the great African Traveller they grow cotton— And from cotton Commerce ! And from Commerce—Civilisation and Christianity. A magnificent prospect opens before our ima gination at those suggestive words —a pros pect glorious for Africa, for England, for the whole Eastern Hemisphere. In talking thus we are not simply dreaming dreams, we are talking of what is actually practicable, of what we believe to be at this moment to be within reach of our grasp, within the limits of realization. May the project be indeed and very spedily . realized ! Then will the noblest earthly recompense have fallen to the lot of an earnest and true philan thropist. ROYAL VISIT TO. NVENTWORTEI-HOUSE —The Sheffield independent of Saturday last states authoritatively that the Queen and the Prince Consort will honour the Earl of Fitz Nilliam with a visit at Went worth-hour?, near Rotherham, on their return from Scotland, on Thurs day, the 15th of October next.

CLOSE OF THE NATIONAL GALLERY.—On Friday the National Gallery, Trafalgar-square, and the Vern"n and Turner Collection of Paintings at Marlborough House, Pall-Mall, were closed to the public until Monday, tile 26th of Oct., when they will be re-opened. ANECDOTE OF THE iliascrate TELEGBAPH.—I think the most curious fact, taken altogether, that I ever heard of the electric telegraph was told me by a cashier of the B ink of England. " Oace upon a time, then, on a eel.. tain Saturday night, the folks at the Bank could not make the balance onme right by just 1001. This is a seri ous matter in that little establishment : I do not mean the cash, but the mistake in arithmetic ' • for it ecTasione a world of scrutiny. An error in balancing has Leen known, lam told, to keep a delegation of clerks frJur each office at work sometimes through the whole nig'it. A hue and cry was of course made after this 1001., as it the old lady in Threadneedle-street would be in Vie gazette for want of it. Luckily on the Sunday morning a clerk (in the middle of the sermon, I dare say, if the truth were known) felt a suspicion of the truth dart through his mind quicker than any flash of the telegrail itself. He told the chief cashier on Monday moning that perhaps the mistake might have occurred in pack ing some boxes of specie for the West Indies, which bad been sent to Sau . .harnpton for shipment. The sug gestion was immediately acted upon. Here was a race —lightnilig against steam ! and steam with 43 hour.' start given. Instantly the wires risked whether such a vessel had left the harbour ?" Just weighing anchor,' was the an , wer. 'Stop Ler,' frantically shouted the elec tric telegraph. It was done. Have up on deck cer tain boxes marked so and so ; weigh them carefully.' They were weighed ; and one—the delinquent--,sae f l ii oo u ootik n l.r d i :avier by jest one -packet of a hundred soy. rcigtA -than it ought to be. Let her go,' said the mys . eious telegraph.

TU'ES DA in E_VENINGI . SEP iiEWBET, T 15, 1857 SUICIDE FROU WATERLOO BRlDGE.—Yestesday morn ing, about four o'clock, a man dressed like a mechanic precipitated himself into the Thames. At low water the body was found, and taken to Lambeth Workhouse to be owned, and for an inquest. The Stock Exchange Committee have appointed Tues day, the 223, as settling day for the National Gnaran teel Manure Company, but the shares are not to be marked - in the official l►st. The several shares of the Eastern Counties Railway are henceforth to be quoted as stock. COLLISION OFF GRAVESEND.—The Lord Mayor yes terday received a communication from Mr. C. W. James, the principal harbour-master, stating that at four o'cl c'rc that morning the screw steamer Fyenoord, of Rotter dam, and the tug Sampson, belonging to the Shipowners' Company, had come into collisio❑ in Gravesend Reach, and that the latter vessel was sunk outside the coal-hulk Magnet. M. Jullien (says the Musical World) has left London to repose from his labours, and renovate himself for the winter season at her Majesty's Theatre. Always active, however, even in the holidays, he visit Vienna, to conclude an engagement with the popular Jetty Treffz, whose immortal " Trab, trab" is once more to fascinate a London audience. Sours KENSINGTON MUSED .—During the week ending Sept. 12, 1857, the visitors have been as follows: —On Monday, Tuesday, and Saturday, free days, 2,997 ; on Monday and Tuesday, free evening', 5,863. On the three students' days (admission to the public, 6d.), 367 : one students' evening, Wednesday, 102. Total, 9,329, Intelligence from China, via Kjachta, give a deplora :le picture of the condition of Pekin and the southern provinces of the empire. Commerce has almost ceased, and the wretchedness of the people is augmenting daily. The Government has issued iron money to pay the em ployes, and to purchase corn, whilst it requires the taxes to be paid in silver. THE CHINESE IN AIISTRA.LIA.—The number of Chin a men in the district of Ballarat East, according to the last census, is 10,000, of whom six are married to women of European descent. It may not be unicterest ing to k now that the naajerity of the ladies claim Scot. land as their birth-place.—Australian, and Arm Zealand Gazette.. THE PRESS OF AIISTRALIA.—The total number of newspapers now issued in the Australian colonies amounts to 81. Victoria has six daily and 38 weekly and biweekly ; New South Wales two daily and 18 weekly and bi-weekly ; Tasmania five daily and three weekly and triweekly ; and in Western Australia there are four weekly journals.—Australian and New Zealand Gazctte. _ _ The Journal de Constantinople states that the Porte has granted a concession to Messrs. Price, Larkins, and Joyce for a railway from Sameoun to Sivas, a distance of 250 miles, through a very fertile country. The capital is to be 4,000,00001., with a 7 per cent. guarantee from the Turkish Government. It is intended to construct the line in three portiocs, the second of which will ter inmate at the copper mines of Tokat. According to a circuler of Arles Dufour, of Lyons, the French silk market continues heavy, owing to the natural tendency to reaction from the late exaggerated rise, and the general decrease in consumption. The period, however, is approaching for the receipt of the AMeican orders for the spring trade, as well as those of the European manufacturers, and as the latter are be lieved to have completely exhausted their stocks a partial revival is anticipated. The Star of Peace has arrived from Australia with 91,522 sovereigns, and the Sardinian with 4,965 ounces of gold, valued at 19,850/. The George Marshall is also reported, but the gold by her is stated to amount to only 2,1301. The Atrato from the West Indies has brought 174 0001., of which 90,0001. is gold. The Tagus from the Peninsula has 3,120/., and the Arabia from New Yo k 11,0001., making an aggregate receipt yesterday of 301,6321. ADDRESS TO THE WIDOW OF THE LATE BISHOP OF LONDON.—Yest:rday the family of the late Bishop of London took their departure from the episcopal palace at Fulham. Prior to leaving, an address, signed I.y all the inhabitants, was presented to Mrs. Bionafield, ex pressing ". their grateful and respectful regard to Mrs. Blomfi U on the intended removal of herself and her family from the palace, which they have now occupied for nearly 20 years." DEATH OF AN ATTEMPTED MIIRDERER.-00. Saturday Mr. Bedford held an inquest at Millbank Prison, on the body of George Dickinson, aged 56, a convict therein. It appeared that deceased, who was formerly an afileent tradesman in Leeds, was received into the above prison on the 7th May last, under sentence of transportation for 20 year , , for having attempted to murder his wifo. He died on Monday night last, the cause of death being cancer in the stomacl•. Verdict—Natural Death. In the general business of the Port of London during the past week there has been moderate activity. The number of ships reported inward was 206, being 54 less than in the previous week. These included 26 with cargoes of grain, rice, &c., 6 with cargoes of coffee, 11 with cargoes of sugar, 3 with cargoes of fruit, an-I one from Shanghai wit's 7,120 packages of tea and 995 bales of silk. The total number of vessels cleared outward was 120, including 12 in ballast, sboAiog an kcrease of four. The Inverness Courier says :—" His Grace the Duke of Leeds, after enjoying the sport of deer-stalking last week in the Colen Forest, paid a visit to Shieldaig of ApplecrosA, a part of his estate. He was waited upon by a deputation of the Free Church party, supplicating his Grace for a ulterior' a free church and manse. The Grace at once offered them a free gift of the same. During his visit he also pciated out to his factlr a house belonging to his Grace which he wished to be immedi ately repaired and converted into a school for the use of the village children." THEFTS UNDER THE GALLOWS.—There were four cases of robbery from the person at the execution of Captain Rogers, at Kirkdale, on Saturday. In one case Edward Smith was charged before the Liverpool magistrates with stealing the silver watch of Alexander Martin, bet as there was no conclusive evidence, the prisoner was discharged. There were three charges against a lad named Smith, upon all of which he was committed for trial.

FRIGHTFUL ACCIDENT AT BATTERSEA BRlDGE.—Yes terday morning a shocking accident occurred to Wm. Smith, a labourer employed in the repairs of Battersea Bridge.

When e x t r i ca t e d front his situation it was discovered that both his legs were fractured severely, and he had also received severe contusions on the head. He was conveyed to St. George's hospital. THE FLOATING ISLAND ON DERWENTWATER.—This remarkable phenomenon was seen for the first time this year on Thursday week , and is much larger in appear ance than has been seen for several years back, its lougth being about 30 yards by 10 broad ; and it is somewhat remarkable that it should invariably appear in Septem ber, as we find in 1849 it appeared on the 13'h, in 1850 on the 22d, in 1851 on the 27th, and in 1854 on the 13th, but on all these occasions it was only visible for a few days, being submerged in consequence ,of heavy rains, but if fine weather continue it may probably re midis visible for a longer period.—Kendal Mercury. THE LICENSED PORTERe AT DOvER;—At a meetiug of the Dover Lecal Board of Health, en Tl.uredity, the master of the porters, named Griggs, Evil a porter named Baker, were suspended—the former for tines months and the latter for one month. Tae offence of Griggs was that he had omitted to enter in tho report book a complaint against Baker, who had insolently refused to carry a passenger's luggage to Waterloo crescent. The mayor observed that, in the course of the investigation, a sad want of discipline and order had been found to pervade the body of licensed porters, and that the hoard, if they acted upon his suggestion, would promptly set itself t) the task of remedying the same. A MAGISTRATE FINED FOR SHOOTING WITHOUT A GAME CERTIFICATE. — At ttle Hamilton wadyleisiburiyl full etySe bn s e :-.io ch ns on Saturday last (before of magistrates), Mr. J. T. Senior, one of the magistrats of the county, residing at Broughton Hall, near Ayles bury, was charged with shooting without a game eerti ficefe, whereby he had rend red himself liable to a penalty of Si. It was proved that the defendant 'was seen to fire at a covey of four partridges, and that he Wounded one of the birds. The defendant's soliciter admitted the fact that N. Senior had no game certifi cate, but said it was entirely an accidental omission on his part. The fact was, that he had made application fur the certificate to the old assessor instead of the new - one, and that was the lesson he was not in possession of one. He submitted that, as there had been no intention to defraud, a very moderate fine would be sufficient. Captain Hamilton ordered the defendant to pay a flee of 51., including costs. PAINFUL CATASTROPHE, — The tidings reached Edin burgh on Sunday of a very afflicting casualty having taken place at Dunbar the prievous afternoon, whereby Mr. William Wilson, of London, and three of his family lost their lives. The family had recently come from London to enjoy a few weeks' sea-bathing, and several 6f them were on the beach on Saturday afternoon. Two of the youngest, it is sad, went in to bathe, when tl.e rough sea brcetning too much f r them they were in danger ef being drowned, when the father and eldest brother rushed in after them ; but all of them perished in the waves. The distracted mother, too, it is added, endeavoured to fo low them into the water to give her vain assistance, but was only saved by being forcilly drawn back again. The eldest daughter Helen was 18 years old, the younger Alice 14, nod the son James 18. The father's body hal not been recovered on Saturday evening. YOUNG LADY ATTACRED BY A BEAR.—Such of our readers as have j ) fined i n any of the rummer excursions to the Flat Helms, will have doubtless hail their notice attracted by a hear of some size, which is kept tethered by the nwrier cf the hlaed. On Monday last a young lady of eaten, was on the Helms, walking in-compeny witn a gentleman, when she unfortunately approached too (deed to the brute, whose tether was of c onsiderat Ls leneth, and was attacked by him with great ferocity, The bear fastened his teeth in her person, threw her down, and hugged her with great violence. Her screams and the s h ou t s o f th e g entleman who was with her attracted others to the spot, and efforts were imme diately used to i n d uce th e b e ast, to release his victim. This proied a work of some difficulty. One gentleman broke his umbr e ll a t o pi ece s in belabouring him, while others tried the effects of blows and kicks upon the head, but all was in vain, until Mr. Hazard, of the Hot wells, made use of a heavy stick which he bad with him. Miss -- was brought home to Clifton in the , steamer, and has since b een , un d e r the care of Mr.•Greig, sur geon. We are t o ld that the same bear tore a man's hand a short time previously. Surely something ought to be done to protect the voyagera from violence.— Briseol Mmury, LA.TEsT NEWS THE MUTINIES IN INDIA. REPORTED CAPTURE OF AGRA BY THE REBELS. SUICIDE OF NANI SAHIB.

An order arrived this afternoon for the making of grand preparations at the Tuner:es for the re ception of a personage of the highest rank (the Emperor of itussi.t). The Imperial Guard, which was not under orders to return from Chalons until the sth of next month, will commence iti march from that place on the 25th inst., and will arrive at Paris on the 28th. It is whispered that the German potentates have forbidden any of their subjects to accept the medal of St, Helena. It is said that tie institution of the Waterloo medal in England Ills suggested to. the Emperor Napoleon the idea of striking medals commemora tive of the battles of Marengo, Austerlitz, Jena, and Wagram, and of conferring them on the survi vors of the old army who were present at tho© battles.

It observes th.tt it was from Central Asia to the "north of British India—from the midst Of its innueusl populations that iu ancient times came all the people who invaded Europe ; that the warlike spirit of those nations is not extinguished, and the creation of powerful states has alone restrained them in modern times: Now these people are acquainted with the riches of the English possessions in India, and it is to be feared that, as soon as the news of the insurrection shall have reached them, they will put themselves in movement, and thus create fresh difficulties for the possessors of the country. According to the beille, Persia, in spite of her desire to remain faithful to the English alliance, cannot restrain those armed multitudes ; beside', adds this journal, the Government of the Shah of Persia will not hear of the march of those nations on India until they will be already in movement.—lt is unnecessary to say that nothing whatever exists to justify these previsions. The Augsburg Gazette learns from Batavia that a revolutionary spirit begins to manifest itself in the Dutch possessions in the East Indies. An expedi sion is about to be sent by the Dutch Government against the Radschas of Lidak and Takaip, who reside in the island of Timor (one of the Moheels). The correspondent observes that the insurrectionary spirit seems to prevail in Eastern Asia from the 50th degree north latitude, to the 20th degree south latitude. It is necessary to state that the German correspondents take an extremely unfav ourable view of the state of affairs in India, and they rarely fail to state that the whole truth does not find its way into the papers published in India. A letter from Vienna of the 10th, in. the Cologn,3 Gazette, states that the ambassador of France, Baron do Bourqueney, had a conference the pre ceding day with Count do Buol, and announced to him officially that an interview would take place at Stuttgardt in the second fortnight of this month between the Emperor Napoleon and the Emperor of Russia.

It appeared from the evidence of several wit nesses that, between one and two o'clock on Friday last, the deceased left the Camden-town station in a second-class carriage to proceed to . the Euston-s quare C 'ation. ' On the arrival of the tram at the latt er s t a .' tion, the deceased was found at the bottom of the car riage in an insensible state, and ho shortly a ft erwards died. Mr. Risdale , sur g eon, said ke had made a post morm, te txamiaationr and found that the aorta principal artery that diffuses t he through' the tl , e system from the hosrt , was considerably diseased, which would account for his . very sudden dissolution.

That well known nautical drama, the "Pilot," $ l7 O revived last night with great splendour of scenery, de' corations, and appointments ; and although the present generation has so thoroughly lost the recollection of the American war that the ridicule of the Yankee army seems now to be somewhat of an impertinence, th e piece proved to have intrinsic merits enough in its vijkl to render its restoration to the boards'of the Aderpin highly popular step. Mr. T. P. Cooke appeared one ° more in his original character, that darling of all th e seafaring gods, Long Tom Coffin ; and he danced with a scarcely impaired vigour his once famous ho rn -pipe,, sang with unimpaired spirit, if w ith a somew h a t vfen°: ened voice, that well known bit of maritime philcisopb , about the " tiles and chimbly pots." Ono other song incident to the part he also sang, which, in our opiD lo it would have been better to omit, namely, that w herein Long Tom hints at a number of scarcely decent eqtill ° ' ques a propos of his courtship. The heroinemf the even• ing was Miss Mary Keeley, who looked charming .enough as Kate Plowden, and displayed just that ture of feeling and sauciness which is considered t he proper attribute of "the lass who loves a sa ilor." Il e, song was encored, and her duet with Mi ss Arden at the end of the first act was also lnudly applauded. S r ' Wright was hardly at home in the Yankee Captai n ' but be contrived to extract from the part a great deal, fun, which appeared to be very acceptable to the an‘, l . l : ence. Mr. Selby looked and acted the c h ara cter of Coots on pilot with great effect; and wh en Mr. Co% on being called before the curtain announce d the Pine" for repetition till further notice, the intimation was Iv ceived with unequivocal marks of approbation. SURREY, t - The dramatic season proper commenc e d yesterday at the. Surrey with "The Bird in the Hand," a play vill' eh had had a great success in the previous season. Shepherd on this occasion sustained his original a, 14 :, ratter with improved effect ; but Mr. Creswickle 1 3150- was filled by Mr. Basil Potter, who showed himeell a promising pupil in that particular school of acting. ": entirely new faces, Mr. and Miss Eburne, also nlall a l their appearance in the parts of the disinherited predig and his wife, and received so favouracle a reception as to lead to the belief that they will before long becotoe estaulished favourites with the Surrey audience. 14 , i8 0 8 Chalmers, an- importation from Dublin, played the prix' cipal female part in the play, and had a satisfaet° T) reception. The, novelty of the evening was a b ur lesql on the " Traviata," written in the broadest style ! transpontine exaggeration, and transferring the sce n e '" „ Piccadilly and Cremorne. When we Kty that the Cot sumptive heroine was personated by Mr. Widdicon" the reader will most probab'y guess the rest—trelne ry dons Crinoline, excruciating paroxysms of cougbill varied by an occasional sneeza-L.a new reading, a i l introduced with great effect—and the well known drin", ing sons, given in a.style which Piccolotnini might I ,t l . vain attempt to equal. There was a good deal of latig° ing at parts of the burlesque, but whether it wee, tbA: the audience were not familiar with the original, o r On; their sensibilities were wounded by seeing it thus turne.us into ridicule, the piece hung fire on the whole, a11,, d .„ 1 not likely to have a very long run. The Christy x l f,, strels performed twice during the evening, and were, usual, loudly and deservedly applauded.
