THE INDIAN MUTINIES. Tol.l3l.ess some people have shown, but I feel utterly disgusted with the whole army, and I only wish that I might get crders to go out with my regi ment, or alone with my company against some of these people, so that we could put the men to the test, .and see whether they rainy mean to stick to us or not, and end this state of. suspense. "I must leave off now, 4nd send this. If there is a row hero you m a y be sure I will stick to my company as long as we have any chance of their obeying U 3. I would give a great deal to see you all again, but I would give ten times as much to have a fair fight with these Lucknow or any other mutineer=, and our regiment standing to us firmly, so that we might keep our good name amid all the disgrace the Bengal army has now fallen into." LUCKNOW. - The following letter is from a civilian in Luck now:— " Michee Bhuan Fort, Lucknow, July 6. "Pressed by want of food and fuel, and reduced to the last extremity, a sortie was made on the 2d inst., in the direction of the enemy's camp. Their advanced guard was taken - by surprise and utterly routed, after two houre' desperate fighting. A con siderable quantity of provisions fell into the hands of our troops. This successful operation was con ducted in person by our gallant and noble chief; Sir H. Lawrence, at the head of 2JO Europeans, chiefly her Majesty's 32d Foot. Returning from the scene of action flushed with' victory, and boar ing the proceeds of their h ird fight for the relief of the poor sufferers in the fort, just as our troops reached the town the native artillery who accom panied the expedition suddenly wheeled round and opened a deadly fire from the guns on the unfor-• tunate 32d, and I. reg. etiob say that. before • they were able to recover themselves , and face •their-as sailants upwards of 60 men, rank and file, were killed and several -of our best office- s severely wounded—among the oflteers our gallant general, who was severely cut in the le2 by the splinter of a shell, and died this day at 4 o'clock of lock-jaw induced by the wound. The following officers' names I have been able to collet who were wound ed in the sortie and subsequent attack by the mis creant traitors ;--Major Case (since dead), Major Bell, Captains Lawrence, Cook, Wainwright, and Moore • •Lreu'enants M'Cabe, Brackenbury, Browne, Hill, and Charlton. We have been obliged to retire from the lines defending the town and to abandon our strong positions in consequence of these sad casualties, and to fall back upon this old fort, which we have very strongly entrenched, and shall be able to resist the enemy so long as we have provisions, which are expected fully to last (of course on a famine scale of distribution) for five weeks ; but we must not again venture beyond the walls, except it be to make one final and desperate attempt to cut through the hordes Of villains and thousands of well disciplined native troops drawn up against us in regular order of bittle. " The most painful consideration is the number of ladies and women and helpless people who have fled for protection to the •fort, and are now here. Upwards of 200 of these poor cr,atures are cram med into this narrow plice, where it is impossible to describe their sufferings. Death would be in deed a happy release to many of them, and it is enough to melt the heart of the hardest soldier to witness their cruel privations, while it is wonderful at the same time to see the patience andfortitude with which they are enabled ta endure the un paralleled misery of their position." MUTINY AT INDORE. The following are extracts from the private letter c f an officer present during the mutiny at Indore on the Ist of July : "A little after 8 a.m. on the Ist, Holkar sud denly attacked us at Indore. The artillery (nine pounders, procured for him by, the Governor- General's agent) and his infantry opened. They were posed by the opium godown. The miscreants cut down a number of poor telegraph people and dosed us with a supply of our own grape, furnished them from Mhow. My only cava'ry at the mo ment available were a few always kept saddled in the square of the stable yard ; the others, being in the Mehidpore cavalry lines, were in a measure cut off, and required time to saddle and come round. The Mehidpore infantry were neutral, and our own (Bhopal) nearly in as bad a sta'e. To strike a blow, and'an: effectual one, was of the greatest im portance, and iu doing this not a moment was to be lost. • Fleeing myself at the head of the few cavalry read', though nut .properly formed,.l led them against both the guns and infantry supporting each other, at first with something less than 20 men; the affair seemed almost hopeless, but our only chance. As I cast my eye back and found only six or seven, following me, and not in good order, much as I despise the Mahrattas as soldiers, I saw we could not by any po-s bility make an im pression. Still, at it I went—to draw rein or turn after giving the order to charge was too much against the grain. I came in for a large share of their most polite attention. .My horse was wounded in three places ; had to parry a sabre cut with the back of my sword, but God, in His', great mercy protected me, and the dastardly gunners threw themielves under their guns. Had I 30 or 40 good Sowats at the time, with their hearts in the right place, I would have captured their three guns, and have cut their 200 infantry to pieces, but what could h a lf a -d oze n do against so many `1 The foe then mov e d i n t o the plain in front of the flower garden, to blaze i n t o the Residency. I instantly moved up and atta c k e d with my 2 guns, the Subandar Sewlale and th e gunners behaving nobly, and drove them back, disabling, apparently, one of their Mills. " The rest of my cavalry now came up, asking to be led to the charge. but I, cou ld find no bugler, nor could I get the men into proper order. They seemed uncertain whom t o t rus t, who were friends . or who foes, and to le a d th em on as they then were would have be' destruction. Tbey would have been taken in flank by Holkar's numerous cavalry and overthrown. My infantry was re ported in a state of mutiny, so it was all up. decided upon retreating, drawing off the children and ladies before we were completely sur rounded. Althoogh we could have held the Resi dency for a few hours longer, we should Lave been unable to withdraw the poor helpless women and children, many of whom had to be put upon the gun limbers and waggons as all Holkar's force was pouring out of the city, and the rascals also. I covered the retreat wi.-1 till cavalry, and we made for. Mondlaisir, via Simrole Ghat, but we found that Holkar (anticipating such a move, from strong posts well provisioned having been formed there by --) had sent out during the night a very superior force to occupy the Ghats and oppose us in all pos sib'e ways ; and as our cavalry, without saying so, seemed not to relish leaving their families thus, and facing such strong posts, we decided it best to change our route ; but delay would be death, and we bad to continue . our march until we left the Maglioghur pass behind us, for had that been oc cupied we should have been in difficulties. Even then we could only ha't for au hour or so, as &in dial). and Holkar being one we had to look out for the Tuppa Pass. At last that was got over, men and cattle done up, the poor ladies and children bearing up wonderfully, or better, than that ; at Koorlee we rested for three hours and then pushed ou for Ash . a,' which we reached yesterday, 3d. Bow the weaker portion stood so much is*wonder ful. _ _ " July 8. " A large party left for Ilussinghabad a few days ago. The Begum (Bhopal) has clearly told us that the whole of India is now at enmity with us, that our remaining here is a source of weakness to her, and endangers the State and her ; we have, therefore, no opt,on but to de part for Hussinghab td, taking with as much of the contingent as choose to go, which will ba few. The what be remaind•r I leave here in charge of the Begum, and we trust to retain the contingent thus, who are angels in comparison. I lo,t everything at i E s n nd° orword aso id r it, everyb uto7e. To o can saym d ? Matters my heart heirt is heavy aie 'indeed horrible. The s th Infantry, Gwalior e ' did Contingent, murdered Dr. and Mrs. James, and Lieutenant and Adjutant_ O'Dowd ; the others, with a large party, are coming this way. Terrible rain, and so many poor women and young children exposed night and day to it." he found another prisoner, a Chri:Alan el.techist, formerly a Mahomedan, whom tLe Sepoys were endeavouring to torment and terrify into a recan tation. "The firmness of the native was giving way as he knelt amid his persecutors, with no human sympathy to support him. The boy officer, alter anxiously watching him for some timp, cried out, Oh, my friend, come what may, do not deny the Lord Jesus r _ _ "Just at this moment the alarm of a sudden attack by the gallant Colonel Neile with his Madras Fusiliers caused the instant flight of the murderous fanatics. The catechist's life was saved. He turned to bless the poor boy whose faith had sti engthen , d his faltering spirit. But the young mar:yr had passed beyond all reach of human cruelty. He bad entered into rest." CAWNPORE. We have been favoured with a copy of the follow ing letter fiorn Cawnpore, which is, we believe, of the latest date received from within that unfortu nate garrison. The letter was received on the 14► h of July " Cawnpore, May 24. "My dear Mother,-1 am very glad that the mail for England is not going just yet, for I should only be able to send you unsatisfactory news. I need not send this letter, however, for another week, and ,by that time I hope I may be able to tell you that the state we are in has come to an end. I wrote to --- and —by last mail, sending'separate letters, and am sorry to say that what I told you in my letter to the former was under instead of over the mark. There is now no doubt that at DA.hi all the three Native Infantry regiments went over to the townspeople at once, and nearly all the murders we have heard of have been confirmed, and some more added to the list ; while in some cases, especially the 20th Native Infantry at Meernt, officers were shot down by the Sepoys. Till within three days ago I thought there was little or no chance cf our having the same to tell of this station, but, although as yet there is a dead calm here, yet things do not look well. On the' evening of the there were rumours flying about of one regiment accusing an other of being on the point of rising, and 50 men of Her Majesty's 32d and a squadron of the Ist Ai another of the 2d 'Oude Irregular Cavalry all ..tktne into the station. They had come from tucknow, a distance of 50 miles, that day. " I heard all this at mess, and on going home afterward thought for the first time of loading my pistols and putting th'em under my pillow (in other houses they had been sitting up all night for some time past), and this I dill, turning in thereupon and sleeping as soundly as if I had been in T-- square. " In the middle of thenight I was only disturbed by a heavy thunderstorm, and my chum (Dowson) calling out that his door had been blown open, and he nearly blown out of bed ; so, recommending him to go to sleep, I soon showed 'him the way by example as *ell as precept. The next morning' it was raining, and Dowson went out alone to hear the news; he soon came back, telling me that we bad had a narrow escape in the night. It appears that in the middle of the ni g ht the General had received informati( n that all the native regiments intended rising ; he at once gave orders for the guns (we have a battery here now) to proceed at once to the barracks of the depot of her Majesty's 32d, now here. He also sent round notice to all officers and Europeans in the city and cantonment, appointing the barracks the rendezvous, and direct ing all ladies to be sent there at once. The order lies, in their excitement, I suppose, did not give this not'c) to a number of people, and left us out in the number ; and, although the Artil lery Barracks are close to my house, yet, owing to the storm, our watchman never heard the guns were off. Nearly all the ladies in the station were, however, turned out of their houses and hurried off to the barracks. The scene in the morning you can imag;ne. They were all huddled together in a small building. just as they had left their houses ; on each side of this the guns drawn up. The men had been kept standing by them all night through the rain, expecting an instant attack. There are few people now in the station but what believe this attack had been intended, and had merely been delayed on finding us well prepared. " T still put all trust in our Sepoys, and shall do so until I see they are unworthy of it. I had, of cDurse, intended that night, or any other time, on the first appearance of a disturbance, to go straight to my company, and, on hearing of all this flight to the barracks, D)wson and myself sent a hackery to take a tent down to the camp of our regiment, intending to sleep there for the future ; indeed I believe it to be the safest place, except the barracks, for there are a number of rascals in the city anxious for a row, that they may murder and plunder at their ease ; and they are likely enough to come roaming about cantonments now that they are nearly deserted ; but among our men I believe we are perfectly safe, and if they do mutiny we should, at all events, have the satisfaction of being at our posts. By that evening, however, an order was issued directing all officers to sleep in the line: or camps of their respective regiments, so we did not have it all to ourselves ; indeed, our command- ing officer had slept in the quarter-guard the night before. Since then Cawnpore has been in a per tct state of siege. _ All the ladies and non-com batants sleep in the barracks or in a chapel there is near them, in great discomfort, going home in the daytime for a little rest. Large stores of am munition have been brought from the magazine to the barracks (32d), where the artillery are still kept, and 10 days' provisions have been laid in here. There are now here 50 Artillerymen and over 100 of the 32d, while the native artillerymen are also kept at the barracks, as it is believed they will remain true, though, as it is a company of this very battalion who went over to Delhi, I don't see how these men could be trusted much more than the native infantry. I suppose altogether, with shopkeepers, &c., added to the officers, and 150 European troops, we should muster ( s upposing that we all leached the barracks) about 400. In addition to this there are two squadrons of Oude Irregulars, though as these men were only taken into our service last year when we took the country, I should not put much trust in them, in spite of their being s nt ov. r by the au: horities to assist us. " I send you a plan of the station ; you will see my house in the right hand upper corner. The Artillery Barracks near it are now, of course, de serted, all of the men being down at the 32d barracks : indeed, so are all the rest of canton ments ; at night everything is so' quiet it seems like a - large cemetery. " How tong this state of things will continue it is impossible to say, but if all goes well. I will con tinue my letter in a few days, and I hope by the time the mail goes out to wind it up by saying that we are all settled down once more. " May 31. "It is a week since I began this letter, which I have been keeping in the hope of being able to wind it up with some better news, but to-day I must send it off. I am sorry to say that here we are just as we were a week ago—people all in the barracks all night,' and nearly all day. They have surrounded it with a trench and earthen parapet, and have made all as ready as they can for a row here. In the meanwhile the Sepoys of every regi ment here declare they are true to their salt, and ask what has come to all the Sahibs in the station that they are in such fear. We native infantry facers show them we trust them by sleeping in their lines every night, and we have no proof what ever that they have ever intended to mutiny ; but, still, how is it is possible to say what they may do, when, in addition to what I told you in my last letter, we know that two native infantry regiments at Ferozepore have mutinied and been fired into and cut up by her Majesty's Gist, the Artillery, and 10th (, he last, natives, behaved well), while at Lahore three native regiments have been disarmed, and do duty without arms ? " In my last letter I told you that the 9th Reg'. of Native Infantry at Allyghur and two other small staVons between this and Meerut and Delhi were firm ; but they have mutinied, though without committing any of the Delhi and Meerut atrocities. "In one or two of the places they have quietly taken the treasure, and in the others gone off with out even doing that, simply telling their officers that they w ou ld s t ay no longer. By e ' far the worst news for us has, however, come in this morning by telegraph from Lueknow—viz., that ail the native regiments there, except the cavalry, have risen and the Brigadier . . . . and three other officers murdered. " All the other regiments now in Oude are, I am afraid, ceitain to go, and, with the irregular regi ments lately raised, there will be a tremendous force. After this, if the regiments here stand firm to their officers it will b 3 a miracle. lam sorry now that I did not send this 'eta Calcutta. I kept it, hoping to give you the latest news, and now I fear these rascals from Oude may be on the road and stop the carts. lam still sanguine ; but since the English have been India, except perhaps in the " Black hole" time, there can be no doubt that our power has never been in such danger. In the retrea' , from Cabul things looked bad enough, and after . the battle of Ferozeshah people thought the Sikhs would be in Calcutta, but then, and always hitherto, we have been fighting against open enew ie3 ; now we cannot tell who aro friends, who enemies, and the worst among the latter are the very men we have been giving arms to, and teach ing them how to use them. If I were in an Euro pean corps now I should be glad indeed to have a row with these rascals, and pay them off for Delhi and Meerut ; but no officer can look forward with any degree of pleasure to a struggle with men whom he lately commanded, and took a pride in, and implicitly trusted. "Thank Heaven, I am not one of the croakers here, and have never been troubled with the ner- ALL AHABAD. The following is an extract from a letter from an officer in the East India Company's service : " When the wretched 6th Regiment mutinied at • Allah ibad and murdered their officers, an ensign, only 16 years of age, who was left for dead among the rest, escaped in the darkness to a neighbour ing ravine. Here-he found a stream, the waters of which sustained his life for four days and nights. Although desperately wounded he contrived to raise himself into a tree duri ng the night for pro tection from wild beasts. Poor boy! he had ahigh commission to fulfil before death released him from his sufferings. " On the sth day lie was discovered, and dragged by the brutal Sepoys before one of their leaders to have the little life left in him extinguished. There COMMUNICATION WI TII INDIA. The following paper on communication with India . by way of the Euphrates Valley was read this week at Dublin by Major-General Chesney, in the Geographical section of the British Association fur the Advancement of Science. Major General CHESNEY read FIS fOllO : —The import ance of a rapid communication to Melia is now an admit ted fact by the whole of Europe. In reality it should have been son considered in past times, nor cae it ever be other wise so long as Indiaresaainsa dependency of Great Britain. Since I bad the honour of addressing the section on this subject at Belfast, in 1852, the question of our cprnmu nication with India by .the line of the EupbratePhas taken a much higher position than it then occupied in public attention.- But before going on to the few re marks wWch I wish to make to you on this subject, I should like to point out to you the various 'existing and. proposed lines of Vonte to India; in: . order that ynn may have clearly before your mind what it is that lam anxious to tionomplish by this Euphrates route, of ithich you have ;o ciiften heard. You al know our Img sea I.ne to India round the Cape. The red line on the map shows you the existing line by the Red Sea and Aden ti Kurrachee and Calcutta. The yellow lines shows the routes proposed by Sir Rowland Macionall Stephen son, and the one apparently preferred by Lord Pei merston. It passes, as you will observe, over the Balkan, the Taurus, and other mountain ranges, quite regardless of engineering difficulties. And the blue line is that which it has been proposed to carry out. You will at once perceive that if a direct line be drawn along the globe from London to Bombay or Kiirrachee, it exactly takes in the route by the Valley of the Eu phrates; consequent!) , this portion of the line has necessarily formed a part of all the various projects that have been advinced with a view to facilitating and shortening our communication with India, with one ex ception, brought to my notice in a paper read list year at Cheltenham, which line is supposed to go from Acre across the desert to Bussorah. The distances by the two overland routes are as follows : English miles. From London to the entrance of the Red Sea 4,3724 From the entrance of the Red Sea to Kurra chee, which will no doubt become the great port of India in place of Bombay 1,705 Total 6,0774 London to the entrance of the Persian Gulf 4,271 From the entrance of the Persian Gulf t) Kurrachee Total The difference in favour of the Euphrates Valey being 1,1044 rails. The great gain, therefore, is from the entrance of the Red Sea and Persian Gulf onward. From the Red Sea to Kurrachee we have 1,705 English miles ; whilst we have only 702 fr ini the head of the Persian Gulf to the same port, or less than one-half. In the one case we have the monsoon right ahead to wards Aden ; in the other it is nearly abeam to Ormuz I need scarcely add a difficult and dangerous navigation in the one case, and a perfectly cafe one in the tarer. It was this great difference in the open sea distance of the two lines which made so great an impression on his late Majesty. When looking at the map he at once said. "I sin a sailor, and can apprec;ate this great advantage," and up to his lamented death he warmly supported the Euphrates route. The completion of the proposed ar rangements would enable us to get over this distance and carry mails and passengers from London to Kurrachee in 13 days and a half, or less than half the time at present occupied in the transit by the Red Sea ; while by layi g down an electric telegraph line by this route, we niey, in 13 or 20 hours, be assured of the welfare of some friend or relative in a distant part of India, whose fate is now a matter of uncirtainty and anxiety. I should j ast point out to you also that the proposed railway will form a elle n of com munication with those lines up the valley of the Indus, &c., now in progress of completion in India, and wdl thus give us as direct a route as can be had between London and Labors. But the rapidity of rail and elec tric communication form but a small portion of the bene fits which, in a political, military, commercial, and so cial point of view, will result from opening up the Eu phrates Valley route to ludia. No country possesses atem ciations of such deep and historical interest as title. We have here the firsl seat of mankind—the sites of the four primps ual cities of the bible—the empires of Cyrus the Great, Cyrus the Younger, and of the great f. Lower of his step., Alexander, whose conquests and unparalleled marches of 19,020 miles-(according io a careful calcula tion which I have made) laid the foundation of that con nection of the east with the west which is now under consideration. The Romans, also, were alive to the great importance of this territory ; for after the empire of Seleucus had passed away, we read of the attempt of Crassus to conquer the country, and of the expedition of Traj in 51 years 8.0. Julian the Apostate followed in tie steps of Trajan, A.D. 331. He built a fleet on the banks of the Euphrates, descended the river, and, ac cording to Gibbon, encountered thei e a most terrfie hurricane at a spot answering to the present El Kahn above Anah : and it is remarkable that it was apparently nearly at the same spot that the expedition which I had the honour of commanding was visited by a similar and equally fearful hurricane in May, 1836. From the period of Julian, A.D. 363, we have no record of any great military expedition in connection with Western Asia until Napoleon conceived the idea in 1809 of trans p irting a force down the Euphrates with a view to the invasion of India. All his calculations and arratigemect were made for this end. His troops were to have been transported on rafts, constructed of timber cut down in the vicinity and on the banks of the river and sea coast. With a little of his daring we might do the same at this moment, and with much greater facility. The garricous in the Mediterranean might really spare 7,400 --eiz., 3,000 out of the 6,500 at Malta, 2,000 from the 4,000 at Corfu, and 2,400 might be detached from the 5,400 men stationed at Gibraltar. 2,400 might go through Egypt, and 5,000 could be cArried in a few days by Admiral Lyons's fleet to the mouth of the Oron tee. They would then have before them a march of 110 miles, with ample means of transport to the river. Pon toons, native rafts, and boats would carry the force down to the Persian Gulf in less than 15 days. Toere native vessels could be found to transport them to Kurrachee by a• safe and rapid navigation at this season. There have been various proposals at diff -rent times for open ing communication with India by the Euphrates valley. That which took the most practical shape was elaborated by Lieut. Campbell, then of theeß .yal Engineers, in 1843. His proposal and map were iii all essential points identical with those more recently proposed by the great engineer, Sir R. M. Stephenson. These and many other subsequent proposals, both French and English, have all now become merged in the company of which Mr. Andrews is chairman, and Sir John M'Neill, a man well known among you, engineer-in-chief. I was strongly pressed last year to join in the promotion of my favourite object of nearly a quarter of a century, and urged to proceed to Constantinople to obtain the uec esary finnan from the Sultan to make all necessary arrangements. Feeling that with the prospect of a railway a more care ful examination of the country to be traversed was !:lo sirable, I was accompanied by Sir J. MeNeill, civil engineer, and two assistant engineers. We reached Con stantinople by the route of-the Danube, opened negotia tions, and made all preliminary arrangements eat! the Turkish Government, and then proceeded to Syria in H.M.S. Stromboli, which was paced at our disposal by Lord Lyons in the kindest possible manner. Nothing could have been more fortunate for us, since she was commanded by an officer, Commander Burgess, who proved himself one of those men who seek opportunities of doing their country service, and he was warmly se conded by Mr. Albert, the master, as well es the rest of his officers and men. We examined carefully the coast of Asia Minor, where the Taurus touches the sea, in the hope of finding a practicable valley fur e future line tbroueh that country, and then proceeded to examine the coast for a good harbour. That of Alexandretta did not promise to answer on account of its m 'untains, im passable for a railway ; and the ancient harbour of Se leucia was also condemned as not affording sufficient depth o f water. But on the southern side of the Bay of Antioch a spot was selected by Sir J. MiNeill, admir ably adapted to form a safe and commodious harbour of refuge. It will be capable of receiving second-rate lire of battle ships, and will be as good as, or superior to, the harbour of Kingstown. The Tut kish Government has engaged to bear the whole expense of the construc tion of this harbour, estimated at from 250,0001. to 300,0001., and to carry out the works by English engi neers simultaneously with those of the railway. Tue spot chosen is three miles south of the river Orontes, arid six miles east of the old harbour of Seleucia.

It will vastly increa-e our power, by the speed with which troops may be sent to India, Persia, and to central 1 Asia, and it will bring in its train military, political, and commercial advantages ; and may I not add—it will extend the greatest of all blessings, by giving Christianity to millions and tnillicius of the benighted people. [PRICE 4D.

The harbour, when completed, will he capable of giving shelter to 30 or 35 vessels. The average depth of water will be from 20 to 40 feet. I have given these details in connexion with the proposed harbour., because I think you will agree with me that, irrespective of the route to India, a good harbour of r. fuge on the coast of Syria would of itself be of the utmost value and importance to all commercial nations. Our survey of the country and subsequent trial sections of the engiaeere extended from the coast to within sight of the. Euphrates, taking in the towns of Antioch sand Aleppo. Beyond the latter a'l engineering difficulties cease, the country presenting a hard dry level surface (ea led in Arabic Ka Jalide, flat and bard) most admi rably adapted fur a railway. And even be' ween the Mediterran an and Aleppo, the difficulties are such as would be considered small in this country. There will n t be a single tunnel, and only two cuttings of any con sequence. Two chain bridges over the Orontes will be necessary, but neither do these present any obstacle to the engineering science of the present day. The average expenses for the first part of this line (which will be the most expensive pertien of the whole) is estimated at 13,4841. per mile, and another portion, which also pre sents some difficulties, 12,7541. per mile. But as portiens beyond Aleppo fall very considerably below this aver-. age, some of them being estimated at only 4,693/ per mile, the average expense for the whole of this first • ec tion of the line from the harbour to the Euphrates has been calculated by Sir J. Mac Neill at 8,8581. per mile. Oe my return to Constantinople the terms of tho Can eef•sion were finally settled, but, owing to opposition from rival parties, they were less favourable than bad been previou-ly arranged. The Turkish Government gave a guarantee of 6 per cent, on the capital expended by the company, requiring from them a deposit of .exchange for tbe finnan, with the condition that' flie works must - be ochnneenceil within one 'e ;r. The expense of the whole line is estimated at 6,000,0001., but assistance from our Government on the first section only, or of a sum of 1,400,0001., since the railway, after reaching Aleppo, will require no assistance whatever. The assistance a ked—the whole amount of which is only 100,0001—to supply the interest to the share holders for three years, until tfie railway shall be in working operation, is more nominal than real, the object being togive confidence to the public, for which the Turk ish 6 per cm'. guarantee is not sufficient I fcund the Porte thoroughly alive to the great advantage likely to result to Turkey from the establishment of this line. The consolidation of the Sultan's power in distant provinces of his empire, the great trceension of commerce to•be expected, the centralisation of the system of govern men', thee , and many other considerations were strongly felt by the Turks. We found, indeed, the existing coin mercial returns in Syria most satisfactory. Without taking into account any increase, Aleppo alone and her commerce would suffice to support a railway thus far, and would yield a return of 8 per cent. to the share holders. 1,800 shares were at once taken in Aleppo, itself, and a petition was sent to the Sultan in favour of the railway. To the eastward of this city, however, a large additional trade may be expected ; indeed, a very ex ensive trade E x:sts, which would all flow into this railway. We shall bare Syria and Mesopotamia on one line, India and Central Asia beyond, with Kurdistan and Persia on one side and Arabia on the other. It is impossible to estimate the amount of traffic and com merce which will arise. It must be very large ;• it may be beyond what even England has ever seen or imagined --for there is no limit to the productive powers of these countries, provided capital and skill be there to turn to account the vast provision for their realisation contained in their noble rivers. The chief products at present are grain (which could be supplied to Europe to any extent), cotton of a very superior quality, which is already culti vated largely, but not yet cleaned, in the neighbourhood of Mossul, and would be grown much more extensively if any means of transport existed. Mr. Raseam, her Majesty's consul at Itlossul, tells me that 100,000 camel loads of cotton are now lying there for want of means of transport. Wool, also copper, anger, indigo, saltpetre, dyes of various kinds, bitumen, and various other products, are the present ordinary exports of Me, o potarnia. Their demand for our goods would be pro portionately large. At present the natives of Syria and Mesopotamia receive many other supplies from Russia, through Trebiz , nd, but tbeir markets would be supplied by Manchester, Sheffield, Birmingham, &c., if the means of transport were established. It is, indeed, impossible to estimate the changes in Euro pean countries by throwing open to them these sources of commerce and openings for colonisation. I bayed welt at some length on the commercial advantages to be ex pected from this line-e—although at this momenteven these muet yield in importance to the all engrossing desire for more rapid communication with India. This and tele graphic wires in operation would be worth anything to England at this moment. The means of rapid and cer tain transmission of mails and passengers to India ought alone to deride the public and Government in favour of this line. For the transport of troops and stores it would be of inestimable value. Few political °like's could be of more consequence to England than those which will be so thoroughly accomplished by this line. I allude chiefly to the consolidation and to the commercial and political rescuscitation of Turkey. We have expended lavishly money and lives ostensibly for this object, but without benefit to curselves, and without imparting any real strength to Turkey. By thi: line we secure the de fence of her frontier against Persia and Russia. History proves to you what a powerful influence has belonged at all times to the possession of the valley of the Euphrates. A. friend who is intimately acquainted with the East writes to me—"l was in these countries during the Rus sian war, and frequentle thought how different the posi tion of that power would have been if their army had been moved in the direction of the Euphrates valley, in stead of invading thePrincipatiesand European Turkey. Europe would have remained in a state of apathy, and public opinion out of England at any rate would have been for them. Had they reached Mossul under these cir cumstances they would have been in a country whose resources surpass almost any other in the world." This, or a very similar plan, was proposed to the Emperor Nicholas, by one of his generals, during toe war of 1828- 9. We may be thankful that it was not adopted. Dr. Sprenger says :—" If properly managed, the valley of the Tigris would soon be sufficiently prosperous to form the bade of a campaign to the south-east, or the same route that was taken by the Arabs when they con quered the valley of the Indus in the seventh century of our era. The straits of Ormuz are so narrow that the Persian Gulf might at any time be converted into a lake bebnging to the power which may be in possession of Bussorah. Europe is no longer the world and the true key to the possession of the world is the valley of the Tigris, and riot Constantinople, as it was believed in an cient times." These are a few, and still but a few of the great results likely to arise from the establishment of this line of communication. The subject is too vast to be embrainel in a paper such as this ; Out I trust I have said enough to give you an interest in the subject., and I may add to all its practical advantages, that to men of science, to :h 3 gei. I ro c' ast, the naturalist, the ethnologist, the arcl ss,logist, and many more, new fields of interest and investigation will be opened up, with which Europe has at present but slight acquaintance. The principal ot.jection with which my views on the importance of the Euphrates route are generally met is drea 1 of the Arabs. I think myself that this difficulty will be easily overcome by judicious management and a little foresight. They are a very singular people, uniting the ex' remes of good and evil in their characters. I have lived among them for many years, and have experienced both from them, the good and evil—the greatest fidelity and truthfulness iu most instances ; treachery and dishonesty in some others. I could tell you many anecdotes in illustration of :his, if titres permitted. Our chief difficulties with them would arise from their ignorance, the divided and some times hostile state of their tribes, and their blood feuds. But I know, from experience, that by moderation, tact, and truthfulness on our parts, these may be overcome. During the Euphrates expedition we never lost a single man by the Arabs. They carried large stores of muskets, powder, ammunition, and sums of money, amounting to 6,000/. and 7,0001., for usattetided byouly one iudividuul of our party, and in no one instance was there any loss to us. These undertakings were usually paid in advance and if the Arabs were prevented from fulfilling their en gagement?, the money paid was scrupulously returned to us. They are, indeed, as much alive to their own inte rests as other nations, and will soon appreciate the ad vantages which they will derive from the railroad by re gul tr employment of themselves and their camels and increased trade, If, however, they should show hos tility, contrary to all expectation, such arrangements have been made with the Sultan's Governmen t as will meet even this difficulty. It roust be remembetedouanlisto. that a body of workmen such as we must employ, am lug to 10,600 or 12,000, are already a considerable that de fensivelbra- element, and we should also recollectfect control.

It would be found that, notwithstanding their personal bravery and cunning, they are very much like wild beasts. No one has ever heard of tin army of tigers ; and so it would be with the Bedouins, who have never been united. Like wild beasts they would show desperate courage when irritated, but such ferocity can do nothing against discipline and calm resistance. As a proof of this, I may mention that there are some Kurdish villages below Mar din, in the midst of the desort, which, small as they are, defy all the power of the Shammoar tribe, and success fully refuse to be;taxed. Whoever possesses the Euphrates has the Beeouies in his pocket; for this cuts them off, and they cannot do without its water and otherresources. Those who really entertain fear of the Arabs forg et that a railway running through a fertile country is a vein of die. In le i•si than two years we should see tow ns and vile lages springing up on both sides of the line, and thou-. sands of those malteds settled in them , But it is on the:, TAVISTOCK ELECTION. THE NOMINATION, AND FALL OF THE HUSTINGS. Thursday being the day fixed for the nomination, at the appointed hour the candidates and their friends pro ceeded to the open space in front of the Town-ball. Here two separate erections had been constructed. One was fur the candidates and their supporters ; the other, which was destined we believe for the accommodation of the ladies, was nearly untenanted, owing to the unfavourable state of the weather. Tee rain was pouring down in torrents, and to this cause might be attributej the scanty numbers in front of the hustiugs. After the usual preliminaries had been pone through by the Port•reeve, who is here the returning officer, Mr. Gill proposed, and Mr. May seconded, the nomi nation of Mr. Arthur Russell ; and Mr. Nichols pro posed, and Dr. SLeman seconded, the nomination of Mr. Edward Miall. Mr. RUSSELL begged that his motives might not be misunderstood in presenting himself as a candidate for the borough of Tavistock. He was an untried man, and bad nothing to entitle him to the notice of the electors except the principles which he professed. He was opposed by a tnan of considerable standing as a politician, and tran scendent abilities as an orator. He (str. Russell) was connected with a large landed proprietor, and this bad been urged as an objection to his return, but it was an objection over which he bad no control. When he heard of the vacancy he thought there_ could be no offence in his offering himself to their notice. Let them look to the principles which had ever met the approba tion of this constituency. But it had bets urged that b h p e w n i n b s b t t o b o a t y i o r u a n g m a f o n r a h a s d e a n t o in k n P o a w r i h e a d in g e e natt. twenty-five, w as of it was doubtful if he would ever a ttain to years of dis• cretion. He had been for five years private secretary I to Lord John Russell, and he considered that this wag g them for the promises of a good training. he left the result in their ch ', wed with three rounds of sh a u l a ) pli p npi l d a ore u .r. : M e w : A s h a li i hw t eh w ho a Ta s dwil t ar Z nes e ck e o irni l ev ; ed p i practice of the constitution tkat whoeve r had the show of hands at the nomination was entitled to a seat in the echoice, gatheredat ae legislature. n dt h together, that were in force th is da y , he had not the sli g ht ost doubt th at he s hould ge eb if aelltoetehrid be in habitantseand their b decisionetfTavistock he o c f o e ut o f t l d s h ould be e freely r i b little doubt as to what that decision would be. The law, however, had provided another tribunal, and by its award they were bound to abide. He thought, at the eame time, that the wishes of the non-electors sl ould not be without their influence in deciding the fate of the present contest. And he had to congratulate them on one feature of this contest, that it was not a contest of opponents in principle ; and whatever might be the e • suit, the liberal party would not be a loser. It was not so much an opposition as a competition. It was a con test to decide whether the electors were indeed free to exercise their own judgment, or whether they were to be fettered, by a little "party agreement," from using their judgment between candidate and candidate. He considered that his campetitor had been too apologetic. It was no disadvantage to a candidate for Tavistock to be connected with the house of Russell. [At this stage of the proceedings down came the hustingss with a tre mendoue crash, and can didates and supp were pre cipitated to the ground. It is perfectly miraculous how they escaped ; but, except one man and two boys, who were below the hustings, and are now lying in a dan gerous state, we have not heard of any serious injury.] Mr. Miall added a few words more from the other platform, and The PC:I=IMM proceeded to take the s h ow o f hands, which he declared in favour of Mr. Miall. A poll was demanded. ,ilt will be seen that although Mr. Miall was not suc cessful, he fought a good fight. CLOSE OF THE POLL.
