STAMPED 5 D .] THE PERSIAN EXPEDITION. (FROM THE CORRESPONDENT OF THE TIMES.) BUSHIRE, JUNE 28. Sir James Outram and-Staff reached Busbire on the 12th from Bagdad, and on the 14th Sheikh Mohsin Khan, Sirhang, deputed to visit him by the Serkesseekslay Bashi, waited on our General at the Residency. The day following the Envoy was re ceived with due honours at the camp, where he was introduced by Sir James to Brigadier-Gen. Jacob, who succeeds him in command of the Persian expeditionary force. The greatest cordiality ex isted between all partie, and subsequently a re turn visit to the Fenian camp at Borazgaun was despatched by General Jacob, consisting of Lieut.- Colonel Trevelyan, of the Bombay Artillery, and two or three other officers. All was quiet at Mo hotnerali ; no Persian forces bad returned to that place, which was still held by the Chaah Chief on behalf of the Shah. The Hon. Company's sloop Falkland was anchored abreast the Northern fort, but the Clive had moved lower doWn the river for a change- of air. The crew of the latter vessel had suffered severely from fever, while that of the foi trier were comparatively healthy. This is attri butable rather to the wretched accommodation for the seamen on board the Clive than to any other apparent cause. The men of the Falkland were in . the habit of landing every day, and seemed to be on the best terms with the Arabq. Sir James was ordered to India immediately, owing to the disturbed state of the Bengal Presi dency, and was further directed to despatch as many, troops as possible' to Bombay ; General Jacob was also directed to proceed to India without delay ; but Sir James argued justly, that while our force remained on the Persian soil a com mander of General Jacob's renown and ability was absolutely requisite for the full efficiency and morale of the continued occupation. The Poonah Horse, however, were spared, and despatched to Bombay yesterday. The force now left at Busbire is a 3 follows Cavalry ... Artillery E European Native • ... 1,200 202 ▪ ... 3,739 ... 214 Infantry... ... ... Sappers ... ... ... 5,431, with 12 field-bitlery guns. The troops, with the exception of the artillery abovenamed are all natives. _ It is currently reported that great sickness pre vails among the Persian troops at Borazgaun, and that the Commander-in-Chief is anxious 10 break up his camp there. Several Regiments are urgently required to enforce the payment of Government tribute in the direction of Beibahan, where the people are paid to have refused and re sisted all demands made upon them by the Shah. Rumour has it that the Persians are playing us false as regards Herat, and that the commander of that plate will refuse to evacuata it, even if ordered to do so by the Shah. At present there seems no foundation whatever for the report, and so far the Persians have acted in good faith in ful filling the treaty. There is no knowing, however, how the mutinies in Bengal may affect the Court of Theran, and to what extent extr ineous in fluences may be plied to prevent the desired con summation. A serious question then arises —viz., how far it is desirable to maintain so large a force at Bushire when its services may be imperatively required in India ? Should Persia officially refuse to evacuate Herat, it would be undoubtedly less desirable to remove the force than before the an nouncement of such a breach of the treaty. But by remaining at Bushire that force, without strong 1. reinforcements (not likely now to e available fora long time), could do nothing but hold its present position. Yet that position, as far as I see, could be maintained without the force, which, if need be, might be despatched for service in India at once. Carrack could be retained by a regiment and one or two cruises s, aided by a war steamer or two, and the latter might effectually blockade Bushire and prevent the occupation of the town by a Persian army. Mohammerah, iu like manner, might be given up, and the cruisers there be removed for service at Karrack. Unless I vastly mistake the signs of the times, a pretty quarrel is brewing be tween the Turks and Persians anent the boundary question ; at all events it is not likely' that the former will allow the Persians to re-erect the fortresses upon the Shatt-001-Arab which have been detholished by us. Their .erect;on under any circumstances was in violation of the treaty between the two countries, and their existence might have cut off at any moment the Turkish trade ou the river from the Gulf to Bassorah. Moreover, by all accounts the Persian army in Arabistan is said to be so utterly disorganised, and the State finances at so low an ebb, as to render it morally certain that the Persians cannot re-establish themselves in force there for some time to come. What I would counsel, therefore, under present circumstances, should Herat not be surrendered, is this—remove our forces from Buahiro to India ; garrison Karrack, blockade Bushire and the neigh bouring forts, and keep the Persians from ()mapping the former place, should they attempt it, by occa sional shot and shell from the blockading squadron. This course, while it will render available for India the British force now in Persia, will be a sufficient threat and punishment to the Shah until we are able to take more effectual measures for the chas tisement of such a breach of the treaty. Of course, our hope is that Persia will see it to be herinterest to render unnecessary any such hostile procee lincrs on our part, in which case we hope to hear thattlie announcement of the evacuation of Herat will .be ma le to Mr. Murray on his arrival at Teheran, looked for about the Ist of August. In 15 days the news of the same could be transmitted to Bushire, so that on the 15th of AuguSt the whole British force may evacuate Persia. KURRACHEE, SCINDE, Jury 13. The Berenice arrived here on the 2d inst., with tho Persian state prisoners, the ex-Governor of Bushire, the Deriah Beg, and their suites, who proceed this evening to Bushire in the steamer Lady Canning. Everything is quiet in Sciude and in the Punjab, and no fears are at present entertained of any out break in those quarters. ..- .. . :z; Ilfir 4.UI fAI I : - &4 :NS'' ' .• 64 ''',..:3, - ~,__. , at : r A ~...,.„. , -,-,, ,4 , , 0 „., ',re • 114 -fr o ill ep iFkill i g : — 7 , ,-. ....;-- - - ~, ',,..

Yesterday a very extraordinary " Conference" of Mormon apostles, elders, and priests, some of whom are fresh from the Salt Lake Valley—the Mormon "Zion," to which all these "Latter-day Saints," as they style themselves, are eventually to be gathered —was held in the Adelaide Gallery Casino. On the platform were Pastor Russ, tke o President of the London Conf e rence, who presided, and around him were Elder Orson Pratt, Elder Benson, the presidents of the various provincial conferences, and a number of Mormon celebrities. The services commenced at ten o'clock. After the opening devotions, the various provincial presi dents addressed the meeting. Elder KiesEY, President oftheKent Conference, Mated that there were about 50 "saints" in his district, which was " the most pleasantest part of the country," and prosperity attended the labours. The people paid tbeir tithes and other offerings cheerfully, al.hoUgh they were very poor. They supported no fewer than 13 elders, who " saw high to high, in hall matters, hall the time." The audience gave faint moanings of approbation, and every now and then buret forth into a loud " Amen," when the speaker uttered hopes and prayers for the prosperity of their society. He com plained, however, of some of his people that they were not what they ought to be, and had "given the elders rotten eggs instead of fresh ones." He referred to the opposition they had had to encoun ter, but expressed his gratification that the Govern went -of this country would secure to them the free 'dem of vionhip. Elder DAVIS, president of the Essex district, slid his people paid-their tithes and offerings cheer fully, and had contributed 301. towards the ex pense of the tracts (601. worth) which had- been' sent them for_ distribut'on. They supported nine travelling elders. and they had preached in 86 dif ferent places. He rejoiced in persecution, because it " caused the work to roll forth." Elder JOHN HYDE , president of the Reading As ti ict, gave but an indifferent account of the "saints" in his district.- They numbered, he said, between 350 and 400, of whom, however, only some 250 were, in- his opinion, "saints of a high order," and the rest fell under his- severe condemnation. He gave a touchily: , description of the poverty of his people, who, he said, had only 11s. or 12s. a-week, yet they paid their tithes . and other offerings cheer fully. They -were very " obedient" to the com mands of the Church, and had contributed, in spite of their poverty, about 501. for the purposes of emi gration to the Silt Lake Valley, the Mormon State of Utah. He complained of a number of them that they had refused to be re-baptised, acco•ding to some recent "command of God" (that . is, an order from Brigham Young and Co.) to that effect. He said that those who bad fallen off from the Church, now spent more in a week than their tithes and offerings would have come to in a fortnight. He concluded by regretting" that they had net been able to " establish new causes"—that is, to gain new societies—in any place within his district ; but they would go on in faith, and he hoped they would have better success. (Loud cries of "Amen.") Elder Ross said he could testify that these repre sentations as to the state of the districts were cor rect. He was glad to see those people, although so very poor, contributing of their scanty earnings towards the Emigration Fund, and he said " God bless them." (Loud cries of " Amen.") He hoped they would all strive to get to -the land which God had appointed for his people. (" Amen !") • The audience then sang a hymn to one of those fine old psalm tunes which have been for ages the admiration of the Christian Church. We cannot, however; compliment the Mormonites on the pecu liar poetry of their psalmist, or upon their ideas of time and time, for the Chairman had to request them to follow the "leader " of the singing—a country lad of 18. Elder BEINARD &vow, of the Southampton Con ference, next addressed the meeting. He rather complained- of some of his people as being " half hearted," but said :there was a very general dispo sition amongst them " to go home to Zion" (i.e. the Mormon State of Utah). He complained bit terly of the newspaper press of this country for ex pesing, the villany, profanity, and licentiousness which prevail at the Mormon head-quarters, but he did not condescend to disprove any single state ment which has been made. He contented him self merely with a general denial. He did not enter at all into the question of polygamy— a question in this country reserved only for the fully initiated. Elder HATcII. a juvenile Yankee orator, president of the Sheffield district, delivered a lengthened ha rangue on the advantages of Mormonism, and con demned, very severely, every other sect of religion ists as being "iu darkness," ke. He described London as the " Babylon" of the Scriptures, and dwelt touchingly on the self-denial of the Mormon it's, who, he said, had " throwed away their pipes and pots, a d were a temperate people." He- said several times that he felt "fust-rate," and that the Mormon doctrines made them all feel " fust-rate," and made tliem "g od-looking people"—an asser tion that was s'rikingly contradicted by the coun tenan-ces of a great number of the saints present. Touching the emigration, he said that those who stayed in " Babylon" (London) would partake of the plagues which were sore to fall upon it, or elee he was a f4l-e prophet. (Moans:of approbation from the saints, ant smiles from the general auditors.) Seeing the incredulity of some of the audienc-, the speaker invited those who disbelieved him to "stay here and try it on," an invitation which many seemed perfectly willing to accept. A service of a similar kind was held in the after noon, but the principal meeting was in the evening. The " saints" re-assembled at half-past six, in full force. The room Was nearly full. In the M tt rim the apost'es, elders, priests, and members had partaken of refreshments, in the shape of tea, Arc. ; and as the room was exceedingly warm, most of tl - .e men, including one of the apostles on the platform, preferring "ease before elegance," appeared in their shirt-sleeves. There was a number of babies in the room, who took a very active part in the proceed ings. Judging, however, from the complacency with which both speakers and hearers seemed to regard their interruptions, it would seem that their presenc3 was not unusual in Mormon gatherings. A large number of the mothers were young girls apparently under 20. The youngsters contributed materially to enliven the proceedings, some by laughing and others by crying. Several lads in their shirt-sleeves were occupied during the "ser vice," if service it can be called, in circulating large white jugs, apparently containing water, among the auditory, which were handed about, each tak ing a he try poll, and then returned to the juvenile "saints" in the shirt-sleeves to be replenished and circulated again. The whole affair bad a " free and easy" kind of air, quite foreign to English no tions of religious services, or even of public meetings on week days of an ordinary character. The celebrated, or rather the notorious "Orson Pratt," occupied the whole of the evening in a detail of the history of the Book of Mormon, the Bible of the Latter-day Saints. He described how the angel of the Lord appeared to Joe Smith, or, as he called him, Smeth, when he was quite a lad. How the said angel pointed out to Smith where he would find, in a mountain three miles away from his residence, a box of plates of a metallic substance on which were engraven the records of tire ancient inhabi tants of America, who were descendants of the Israelites, a n d had come over miraculously to the American continent 600 years before Christ, and he described the miraculous " translation: of the re cerds. The speaker, however, did sot go into all the details ; he did not, for instance, tell the people, what the Book of Mormon affirms, that they went over from Asia to America in a vessel which was "like unto a dish," and which had " a hole at the top thereof," and "likewise a hole at the bottom thereof." The speaker might well say that the con veyance was a "miraculous" one. We cannot fol low him into all the absurdities of this oft refuted story ; suffice it to say that his principal point was the necessity of a further revelation, such as the Book of Mormon ; and in urging this point ho re ferred to the " various readings" of the differen` versions of the New Testament, and, calling them " errors," he argued therefore the necessity of a more complete revelation of the Divine will, which he contended was the Book of Mormon. He forgot, or purposely ignored, what every one now admits, that these " various readings," though very nume rous, affect no vital point either of fact or of doc trine. In notrcing the various parts of the world to which Mormon missionaries had been sent, he said that the only country in which they had been un able to make any impression was India. Their missionaries there had been persecuted severely, and had been forbidden to preach at any of the military stations. But the "voice of the Lord' had recalled all the missionaries from India before the recent out break, which he regarded as a " retribu tion" of P rov id ence ; and he predicted, although he was very sorry for what had occurred in India, similar calamities for England, if she refused to ac cept the Mormonish missionaries. The " service" concluded with a hymn, and a col ection was made on each occasion. THE INDIAN INSURRECTION. duces some discontent, for Hindoos as well as Bud hists dearly love the countenance of the sovereign power to their religious ceremonies. All this time education is beginning to making itself fit. The wonders of truth become:more and mere irresistible, and then comes slowly impinging upon Brahmi nical consciousness the rapid spread of new idols and opinions among the hitherto b'goted Bengalec s, and their consequent secession' from Hindooiem. The Brahmin has become more ready to fraternise with the Moslem. But hitherto the Government has kept itself rigidly aloof from teacher and dis-. ciple. Its 'apparent want of sympathy with co - nverts has attracted animadversion in England, and it is at length forced to interfere by enacting two laws—one to release the Hindoo widow from the cruel fiat of perpetual celibacy, the other to pro tect the convert from Hindooism from the spolia tion of his property. The Hiudo law, it must be remembered, prohibited the marriage of Hindoo widows, and •disinherited the seceder fionr the Hindoo faith. These last acts caused, doubtless, a deep sensation, and formed assuredly a strong argument for the Moslem to bring forward iu urging the.Hindoo to repel the threatened down fall of his creed ; and when the unfertimate cart ridge affair occurred the match was ail - died to a mine which had been long silently loading, and the Mussulman was enabled to put his diabolical machinery into movement, se-Are of the co-opera tion of the flindoo. That his p'ots have not suc ceeded in phaking the Government is cause of thanksgiving to God. I do not think that the true character of the Alatiomedan has ever been duly appreeiated in India. Whereier this infernal sect has-teen suf fered to congregate hatred and disaffection towards Christianity and the British rule have been kept alive, and simmering, as it were, like a cauldron over a fire. Moorshedabad (comparatively clo , e to Cal cutta) his always been a nest of lurking traitors, Patna and Dacca hotbeds of fanatic discontent, and in Delhi and Lucknow at no time has it been safe for an unarmed European to be found alone. Et is ferVently to be hoped that Government will now see to the utter dispersion of this dangerous crew. At the best they are but usurpers in Hin dostan, and it behoves us to destroy every trace of royalty or nobility to which they ley claim, and which they ever have made and ever will snake a nucleus for bloody murders and rebell!on. That the Government of India will be all the stronger for this temporary derange ment, I feel cer tain. Its (Bengal) officers will have learnt the true value of " high-caste" men, and we shall have regi men's formed of really hard-working and useful soldiers, instead of the conceited scoundrels whom we have been for years pampering and spoiling— villains who refuse before the enemy to dig a trench because the shovel is an ignominious tool for the " Khetree," and who make themselves useless from inanition on service because a Brahmin may not eat cooked food with his accoutrements on. Away with the rabble ! and in enlisting Sikhs, GlioorlEas, and Doshads, let us get that Anglicised feelin.: , into our reginients which makes the Bombay and Ma dras armies more really useful than the Bengal troops, though inferior perhaps in both physique and morale. And, finally, let Government, heed less of mob orators in England, refrain from extend ing to the dark, designing Hindostanee the same liberty and equality that it confers on th British subject. Moat especially I refer to the " li'eerty of the pre - is"—an act of Sir C. Metcalfe, which was a real boon when limited to the English newspapers, but a most pernicious error when extcnied to men dacious natives. The assertion that these disturbances arise from the inefficiency of the Bengal military officers is founded apparently on the fact that they were ori ginally restricted to the native soldiery, but those who reason thus seem blind to the fact that for treason to. prosper it must do so through the army. No human being would be so rash as to commence a revolution through the instrumentality of-unwar like peasants ; and, in the same way, no Zemind tr, Nawab, or Rajah was prepared to raise the standard of rebellion till he had seen Government stripped of the means of immediate retaliation by the d'saf fection of its native army. That only a few have now done so is probably owing to the fact that the most powerful among them are the best informed, and foresee in the vast resources of the British Go vernment an effectual barrier to their secret wishes It has struck some also as a significant proof of inefficiency in the Bengal Government th it Bom bay and Madras have not joined in the mutiny. That the reins of discipline have been held tighter in those presidencies than in Bengal, where too much consideration and forbearance have been prac tised to all classes, cannot be denied, but it is quite unfair to attribute to that alone the tragedy which is now ena ting. We must make allowances for the difference of materiel of the several armies. Time Madras and Bombay men are not equal in physique or in morale to the up-country llindos tanee, and would probably under no excitement have shown the daring wh;ch the Bengal mutineers have evinced in the face of Europeans. Atrocities certainly wore once committed by the first-named in Vellore, but the outbreak there was quite unlike the organised resistance shown at Delhi. Me'reover, the seeds of disaffection may not probably have been cast to the south of Bengal, where the machi nations of treason have been restricted for r« aiolla time alone can divulge. And, lastly, it alone can reveal whether foreign. Powers have had any hand in this dreadful but impotent outbreak. But God forbid that the blood of the innocent children and the helpless women that has flowed so wantonly from the unpitying knife of the Mussulman shou'd hereafter be laid at the door of the Christ an. Blood of the innocent Uselessly as lavishly has it streamed to the feet of the se who never knew mercy ! But, praise be to Heaven, we can with the Psalmist exclaim, "Thou halt girded me with strength unto the battle ; Thou shalt throw down mine enemies under me." Vengeance is Thine, Oh God ; uplift Thine arm for the orphan, the childless, and the widow ! MAJOR. DEATH BY MISTAKE.—An inquest was hell on Satur day by Mr. Carter, at Rotherhithe, on the body of T. Mills, who was in the employment of Messrs. Curling, wholesale druggists. The deceased on Saturday last poured some tincture of colchicum that was in a large stone bottle into a jug, and drank it, supposing it to be Caps wine. He was attacked a ith symptoms similar to diarrhce t, and a medical man who was called in treated him for that comp'aint, not having been informed that he had drank the tincture. He died on Sunday morn ing. Verdict, accidental death. EXTENSIVE FILM—An extensive fire happened in the premises belonging to Mr. J, R.

IMPORTANT CAUT I O N a g ainst the f e arful dangers of spurious imitations :—The Vice -Chancel for Sir William Page Wood granted au Injunction on the 10th March, 1854, against Alfred Hooper Nevill s for imitating .• Du Barry's Revaleuta Arabica Food." TO THE EDITOR OF TILE TIMES. Sir L—Amongthe many co n j ec t ures made respect ing .the cause of the Bengal mutinies an assertion has more than once,appeared, stated in pretty pod.- Live terms, that it is the inefficiency of the ofhcers and their want of sympathy with the natives under them which have led to the deplorable results the papers now teem wilt • It is not simply to refute this assertion that I now write, b4cause events have already proved its fallacy. It has now come to light that the muti n y i s , in fact, an insurrection, foinent"d by the de p-laid intrigues of 'those who have suffered by recent acts (Atrictly just and legal of themselves) of the Indian Goverment, and springing from convictions which no amount of popularity in regimental officers could have com bated or neutralised the effects of. It is not, the, fore, I repeat,.so much to refute the above asser tion that I address you as to offer a few ob3erva tions on a fact I am ready to admit,—the want of sympathy. between British officers and the Sepoys under them,—and to leave you and your readers to decide whether such a want of sympathy is cre ditable, or the reverse, to the former. In the "good old days," when the pagoda tree bore fruit and the voyage from' England to India was a business of six to eight months, the "Com pany's servant" settled himself down in his Presi dency as in his future home. He ate, he drank, and was merry, and when sated with the rough companionship of his niessraxtes (for a precious rough set were our. forefathers) he looked about for domestic_ enjoyment ; becau e English ladies were in those days few and far between, he hetook - himself, in nine cases out ten, to the buns of the land, an .I in their arms furgot more and more the ties that should bind him to his home, the restric- • tions that should be ob-erved by a gentleman, and the duties that are imperative on the Christian. Sir, picture to •you3elf an Indian of the old school. He is lolling on his sofa or on two chairs, arrayed in shirt and pyjaulai aline (though it be long past noon), under a punkha, close to .a tatty, a hooka in his mou t h, a jorum of .brandy-and-water in his hand, and his " beebee" by his side or squatted on the floor, with a host of her native re lative?,- and a rising brood of calf-skin-coloured children 'around. _ _ Let the_ years p iss, and look at the Indian officer again through the medium of the _overland passage, the medium of quick and frequent intercourse with his mother country. He may b© dissipated, deep in his-taitor's boAs—but he is au Englishman in appearance, though of the fast sort ; and he would just as soon think of congregating with jackals as passing the livelong clAy with Nauch gi r l s an d t h e i r relations. _ _ It is easy to see that the first specimen must be the favourite among the natives, but whether it be desirable to gain native affection by returning .to such a happy state it must remain for society and the public to decide. • I have.illustrated, of course, extreme cases; but a mean would give, I. suspect, a result morelavt,ur-• able to the Indian officer of '1857 tl'iat the one of 1817. Men now go out to India with ,some ednca tion ; even cadets who come out direct pass some examination ; while among those who have been through Aduiscombe and Chatham, as well as among members of the civil servicP, persons will be found of acquirements second to none. This was not the case in former years. Our forefathers were for the most part coarse and uneducated. The sol dier could drink, swear, and fighf, and the. civilian was a mere tradesman. And, though the rough and-ready style of their arts may excite admiration in some, I do not believe they possessed a jot more &ID energy than their more polished succes sors. The" vast improvement of late years in the tone of the C ,mpany's service, in the style of its mem bers, and especially among its military officers, has been universally remarked and commented upon. And it is.strange that people should now seek in that very improvement the source of evils so dire ful as these murderous mutinies. Yet such is the fact, and these comnaentaters do indirectly desire the British officer in India to retrograde in these times of improvement, to divest himself of English ideas - and habits, and to relapse into the disgusting condition I have above endeavoured t) depict of an " Old Indian." It is unfortunate that advancement and improve ment and closer connexion with a pe)ple among whom our lot is east cannot go hand in hand ; but it is not the less a fact The Hindostanee, be he Mussulman Or be be Hindoo, is a creature to whom change is unknown ; - lie is a perfect fixture. ' and as lines springing frOfrotha point, and n ot parallel, di verge more the more they extend, so after years wilt place a wider gulf between this peculiar peo ple and the English who rule over them, and to tax the latter with ire fticiency for results which the Almighty alone can govern is unjust to the last de gree. From these remarks, imperfectly as they are wo:ded, is it not easy to sLe that the volcano which has now burst forth must have exploded in the common course of events ? When we first took India, or, more historically speaking, when we first conerienced to reign there as masters, tardy com munication with England una nglicised the minds of our officials. We gave in to the natives. We adopted in a Measure their habits, their idea, their dress. We never thought of educating them. They uneducated us. But when theirresistibla advance ment of later years el read into the laud, when edu cati n, lade by lit le, forced its way into those realms of ignorance and conceit, there remained to the darkened Hindoo or the bigoted Mussulman but one of two cours-ls-t i become a convert him self, or to get rid of the instruments of conversion. . As regards the Hindoo, this will be re tddy under stood when it is known that the " Shastras ? " Hindoo Scriptures, are not confined to religious Subjects, but are a code embodying the entire Hindoo system of astronomy and geography ; that there is scarcely a passage in our exposition of those sc'ences which does not utterly refute the " Slristras ;" and that therefOre to teach that the earth is a globe, that' it is divided into so many continents, that it revolves around the sun, or that an eclipse is occasioned by the shadow of a heaven ly body, is as much to strike at the root of the Hin don faith as denying the existence of the Messiah would be to call in question the Holy Bible. In proof of this assertion I have only to point out the notorious fact, that the educated portion of the Bengal race consists at present of men who are of no religion,-,that .is, of no revealed or traditional, religion, but either Deists or *Materialists. These gentlemen adopt partly the European dress, driVe about in gay carriages or gigs, drink freely of cham pagne, and partake, anathema maranatha, of beef steak and oyster since ! • The recent rapid increa-e of this class must have long ago struck the bigoted uneducated Hindoo with appr,:hensions of the ap s proaching downfdl of Hintlooisme and when, in addition, it is borne in mind that the GoVernment of India, determined to deal. evenhanded justice to all classes of its subjects, recently passed a law re scinding the Hinds() law which deprives a convert from Hindooism of all succession t r heredit pro perty, and thus released him from the talons of the Brahminical prieetho)d, it is not difficult to under stand that every Brahmin in the country was ripe fur an effort to check the inevitable iinpending fall of his religion. - As regards the Mussulman, he who does not know that the followers of this perseasion have ever to a man burned with hatred - against us knows little of that, portion of our Indian subjects. So bitter is this enmity that it is matter of wonder it has not long ago overcome the want of unanimity for which Orient'' ,ls are not ( - 1, and, instead of burst ing forth in some - grand explosion, has contented itself hitherto with afew frantic but limited emeutes, as in the case of the Moulavies in Bengal and the Moplas in Madras. S.) far we deal with facts ; beyond this is mere conjecture, which inquiries already set on font in India will establish or refate ; and these conjec tures rar.ge themselves thus : From the time of his first subjection to the Bri tish rule the Mahomedan, like a wounded tiger in his lair, or a baffled spider in his web, has lain smouldering away, so to say, with fiendish hate, and a fierce longing fur revenge, strengthened* . by the deep enmity towards all other creeds taught him by his faith. Forming, however, but a portion of the populaeion of India, and having ages ago rendered himself odious to the Hindoo, from whom no co-operation could be hoped 'for, he . has re mained comparatively tranquil, biding his time— watching how long the Christian and the Hindoo would resid ic eq t uietly together. After an interreg nums former does nothin g b u t scra p e together rupees and acquire territory—the neces sity fur ameliorating what we possess getting irre sistible —the first move in the right direction is taken by the aboiitOn of Suttee. The Mussulman we cati fancy pricking up his ears at this, but for so horrible a rate t)iere are few advocates among the Hindoos, and the measure passes quietly. It is Government from all connexion with the villarious followed after some years by the withdrawal of idolatries of Juggernauth.and of Gyajeo. - This pro- TRANSPORT OF TROOPS TO INDIA. A proposal has been made to the East India House by the European and American Steam Com pany, under the management of Mr. Croskey, cal culated to facilitate the periodical transport by the overland route of such reinforcements to India as will be necessary throughout the next six or nine months to keep the attny up to the amount to which it has now been raised. The company possess eight powerful screw steamers of an average capacity of 2,377 tons, and it is suggested that four of these should ba employed to estab'ish a foitnightly com munication from Southampton to Alexandria, and the remaining four to perform the service from Suez to Boml.ay. Each vessel could take about 1,100 men, and a supply at the rate of 2,200 per month could thus be continuously kept up, the troops reaching Bombay within forty-five days ' from their leaving this country. Owing to the shorter duration of the voyage, it is represented that for every thousand men despatched 12,0001. would be saved by the adoption of this route as compared with that by the Cape, while an advan tage will be afforded in enabling the Government tq send home invalids, both civil and military, with the greate s t com f or t and expedition. The chief re commendation of the offer seems to consist in the uniformity of the size of the vessels, so that the number of troops landed at Alexandria would in each instance find precisely the same accommoda tiou at Suez Four of the fleet have lately been . taken up by the India Company and are now on , s uppos nag their way to Calcutta v i a the Cape and, the present scheme to be assented to, instructions would be transmitted by the overland mail on the 10th inst. for these not to return to England, but to go to Suez at such periods as to be in readiness to meet arrivals a cross, the isthmus from this side. The ships of the company are the Golden Fleece, ,Lady Jocelpi, Queen of the South, Hydaspes, Indiana, Argo, Calcutta, and Jason.

Sullivan, R.N., 1:014- any'° official inquiry into the hrs of ,the Peninsular and Orir , ntal Steam Navigation Company's ship Erin, of 850 tons burden, which was wrecked on the cast coast of Ceylon, on the Gth June last, wino con veying her Majesty's mail, treasure, specie, and a large cargo of opium, to the amount of 200,000!., from Bombay to Point de Gallo and China. ~~. Mr. Cumberland attended from the Board of Trade, and Mr. Stenning, of the firm of M'Leod and Stenning, of Fenchurch-street, appeared on be half of the company. Mr. Cumberland stated that the ship left B ,m -bay on the Ist June for Point de Galle and China, and continued her proper course until the 6th June, when she suddenly struck. The main que:- tion for inquiry was now whether the proper sound ings had been taken and such measures adopted as might have saved the ship. Francis Bayley said--1 am in the service of the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Com pany, and am 29 years of age. I have a certificate of competency froth the Board of Trade, dated Aug. 7, 1852. I was captain of the paddle steamer Erin belonging to that company. I have been five years in the service of the company, and master of the Erin since Jan. last, haviag previously com manded- a steamer from Sept., 1856, to Jan., 1857, belonging to the company, on the Canton river. Before that I was chief officer of the Erin for two yews first between Bombay and China, for twelve months, and afterwards from Hung Kong and Kur rachee. I Lad made the same voyage about 12 tiwcs before between Bombay and China and Point de Galle. On the Ist June last I sailed in the Erin from. Bombay at half-past lin the afternoon having trea sure and a cargo of opiuM, valued at 200,0001., on board. The ships also carried the mails, and ere were eight or ten passengers. The crow consisted of 42 Luca's as sailors, and six Manilla men as steers men. There were four European officers, four en • gineers, and four firemen. This was the proper complement of men, and the ship was in good older and properly equipped. On the sth of June, at noon, lat. 7 deg. 25 min., and long. 77 deg. 53 min. 30 sec. E. was the actu 11 position of the ship. We steered from that point S.E. by E., southerly true course. The compass course was S.E. by E. E., and the deviation was about 6 dog. E. At 4 p.m. I again made observations, and the longitude by chronometer gave 78 deg. 17 min. 15 sac. E., and latitude by account 7 deg. 1 rain. 0 sec. E. We were then going from 9to 9i knots. At 9 o'clock p.m. I observed the meridian altitude Ursa Major gave lat. 6 deg. 36 min. N., the longitude by ac count being 78 deg' 57 min. E. It was then a parti cularly clear night, the moon near the full, and I could have seen the land for at least 10 miles off at that time. I left orders with Mr. Baynton, the officer of the watch, to call me if it came at all hazy or thick, or if he saw anything, and also to call nie between half-past 2 and a quarter to 3 in the mo , r ing. I left the deck between halt-past 9 and 10, and was awoke about a quarter to 1 by the ship striking. My cabin was on deck, and the door partly opm. I was on deck in an instant. The engines were going at full speed. There was then a squall passing, and I saw the land ou the port beam. I called out, " Hard a-port," and the officer of the middle watch, Mr. Giegory, then came to me and said, "It is coin ing up thick," or some such expression. This was after the ship sti uck. She was also striking violently at the time. Not more than two or three seconds elapsed between my hearing the ship strike and going out upon deck. The engsnes were stopped at once. I afterwards went on the p tddlebox and triA t get her off, bnt she was hard ant fast on the rock. John Cluirles Ba,ynl on said—l am in the service of the Peninsular and Oriental Navigation Company, and third officer on board the Erin. I have been rather more than two years in the service of the company as third offic?.r, and before that time I served in various sailing vessels. I have a certificate of competency from the Beard of Trade, dated June, 1854. I sailed on board the Erin as third officer from Bombay On the Ist of June. 0 Friday, the sth June, I recollect compa'ing my observations shortly after 12 o'clock with the c ip tain's and second officer's, and my longitude was 7 deg. 58 seo., varying three miles to the eastward. All the officers work by different chronometers. The second officer's observwions were the same. Our latitudes agreed. My watch ou that night was first watch—from 8 to 12. At 9 o'clock p.m. I saw. the captain on deck with his instrument. Tice cap tam toll me to look out for a star. The captain left the deck atout a quarter to 10, and gave me orders to keip a strict look-out and call him immediately if it came on at all thick, and to pass the same orders to Mr. Gregory, who would succeed we at the next watch. The captain gave me orders to steer S.E. by E. half E., and to call him at a quarter to 3. Teat come I continued steering during my watch, to wards the remainder of which by constant inspec tion I found that -that course was steered. I am certain that during my watch that corns° was not varied, fur I went to the wheel about every ten minutes. We had a standard and bin nacle compass on board. I had not compared them that day nor during my watch. We were steering by binnacle. The log was hove every hour from Bto 12. The ship was going at an even speed of from 9 to 9i knots per hour. The weather was very fine during the first part of my watch. The sky was clear until about 11, with bright moon, and light fresh breeze from. the north-west. All sails were set, and the engines on at full sped. Between 11 and 12 it became overcast, the ino:m and stars being obscured by clouds. Thera was no haze. This was the state of the weather until I left at 12 o'clock. - In that state of the weathr, in my opinion, I should have seen laud on that par ticular coast six or seven miles off. I was relieved by Mr. Gregory, and transmitted to him the orders I had received from the master, making him repeat them afterwards. I then left the deck. John L. Gregory, third or supplementary officer, who was not sworn, was next examined, and of er he had made his statement, Mr. Trail, Capt. Sullivan, and Mr. Cumberland retired fur a short time, and on their rauin to court, Mr. TRAILL said he and Capt. Sullivan bad 1141 some conversation with respect to the inquiry un der consideration, and had come to the conclusion that the certificate of Capt. Bayley with hiA (Mr. Train's) report should be forwarded to the Baird of Trade, when, in all probability, reference would be made to the conduct of the third superior officer. 4 Ll'a4 ADVENTURES OF A CILCULATINGt Pll EIV OMENON. At the Marlborough-street police-court on Satorlay a half blind young S xi.4s presented hiiwelf to Mr. Beadon, to thank him for the assistance he hal given a few days ago. This young man was found by a ser geant of the police wandering about the streets in a eta' of bewilderment and destitu'ion ; and as the readiest means of getting at his story, the sergeant brought him to Mr. Albert, the interpreter of this court, who, having questioned him, immediately brought him before Mr. Beadon, who elicited these facts : The young foreigner's name is Jacques Wincliler, of Zuricb. He arrived in this country about a fortnight ago, with the view of giving-public specimens of his calculating powers. He had 'met with a person who induced him to believe he could carry out his views ; but that person robbed him of all his property, his little stock of clothes and money, and what was of more con sequence, of a packet of letters to persons of scientific eminence here, of the addresses of whom he retained no recollection. Being utterly without means to procure a bed, he had wandered about the streets at night for more than a week, and must have perished from actual want because unable to make his condition properly known, had he not m et with the police-sergeant proposed to give immediate proof of his powers. Sums of mul t iplication—eight, ten, twelve The young foreig ner fi gure s, by four, six, and eight figures, were calculated men t a lly with unfailing accuracy ; cube roots, six places of whole numbers, and as many places of decimals. were extracted with facility ; and such appeared to be his aste nishing power of mental calculation and mnemonic satisfied tenac ity, that whenever a doubt about the correctness of a ny solution was hinted, he instantly repeated the whole ed o h n y , this hav younging inan were sories of figures, and went over the calculations again. Mr. himself eofno th o a o t oi t ua he oo powers possessed order, directed ss. to be given him from the poor-box for his present necessities. On Saturday the young man stated he had not been able to discover the addresses of aoy of the parties to whom had received letters of introduction ; his hopet , , therefore, of interesting some influential person to patro nise hun so far as to enable him to give public specimen of pis powers of mental calculation were complete!), blighted. In, the course of conversation, th e young foreigner said he became blind some years ago from over study, and wh le blind he cultivated his ca lcalating powers to their present extent. He ha d now,ever, very lin- Iperfectly, recovered his vision. His chief inducement for coming to England was the kiud notice which had been taken of his case and powers by Mr. Charles Dickens in the Household Words. Mr. Beadon gave the young foreigner 5 .. more, and advised him to make application to the directors of the Polytechnic, or some other popular and scientific institu ti. — ELECTION EXPENSES IN ESSEX.—The election auditor for Maldon has just returned the expenses of Mr. T.
