A t length the gra - dd assault has taken place ! The British standard floats triumphantly over the walls and citadel of Delhi. The stronghold of the rebels was completely in our bands on the 20th September, and the spurious Emperor of INDIA, the mock Mogul, a fugitive from justice, if he has not already fallen into the hands of the • avengers of blood and treason. The insurrection has thus reached its culminating point. Hence forth the accounts will relate of the just vengeance inflicted on the mutineers and murderers. There may, indeed, must still be, outrages of a terrible chlraciper, but they will be the acts rather of disjecta membra, than of a formidable body—of scattered banditti, than of an army, capable of opposing an organised resistance to any consider able English force. There will be parties, living by plunder and rapine, ready to commit any atrocity ; but they will be skulking robbers, daring only against the helpless, and flying before the face of authority. It cannot be supposed that this great achieve ment was accomplished without fearful loss to the gallant assailants. During six successive days the awful struggle was protracted. Aud the exulta tion with which we should otherwise hail the glorious event, must be largely tempered with re gret for the mighty dead, for those who have nobly sacrified their lives in the cause of their QUEE' and country, and in the punishment of the infamous miscreants, who have raised their felon hands against helpless women and innocent chil dren, but shrunk: like flogged hounds before armed men capable of defending themselves, and ' 3 , 1 turning the tables against the trait)rs. They have, however, had noble fates, and their memo ries will long remain enshrined in the hearts of their countrymen. Their relatives and friends, too, will have a mournful pride in speaking of the gallant and brave, who sacrificed th e i r lives, in the triumphant onslaught against, Delhi. The contest was necessarily a fierce The assailants felt 4-' themselves as instruments in the hands of an avenging DIIITT, whose laws had been profaned a n d v i oiatzi —not a craven thought could enter into hearts steeled to achieve a glorious victory, or to nobly relinquish their lives. Oa the other side, tile rebels litera:ly fought " with halters about their neek4." They well knew that no mercy could be the spurious cower, expected, they possesse d excited by despair. The conflict lasted from the 14th to the 20th September, and it was not, until the latter day that the victory was completely and irrevocably achieved_that Delhi was actually in the possession of the British troops. It is said that 50 officers and GOO men, had been killed and 1 4 wounded during the desperate struggle. We fear one. that even that number will receive large additions before the final accounts are completed. Indeed, the Times' correspondent speaks of Vie British loss on the 14th September alone as 600 killed and wounded, and there must have been a long catalogue of casualties, during the five succeeding days of strife and bloodshed The accounts from Calcutta, Per the Nubia, state that on the 14th September the troops en tered the breach near the Cashmere gate, without serious opposition ; advancing along the ramparts to the Cabul gate, where resistance was very ob stinate, and our loss severe, and that we were ad vancing gradually within the city. The enemy seemed retiring over the bridge, and the guns were turned on them. That from Bombay by the Pekin confirmed the intelligence per the Nubia, adding that Delhi was completely in our possession on the 20th Sept. (the anniversary of the battle of the Alma !) ; the loss on both sides very heavy, but particulars not known ; while from another quarter, Vienna, we learn that Delhi was attacked on the 14th, and taken on the 20th, and that the English remained masters of the whole city. The latter, which was communicated by the Austrian Government, stated that " the King and his two sons fled in female, and the women in male dis guise ;" and that later accounts stated that the King had been taken. It also announced the amount of our loss as 40 officers and 600 soldiers killed and wounded thus corroborating the tidings communicated to the Foreign-office, and which appeared in our last edition of yesterday. We also learn that Otrritaaes force had reached Cawnpore on the 14th, and had crossed the Ganges on the 19th to relieve Lucknow. No for midable opposition had been offered to this im portant movement, there being only a skirmishing with advanced posts. There had also been letters from Lucknow to the 15th or 16th reporting all well. An assault on the sth had been repulsed by the garrison with great loss to the assailants. From this we may anticipate that the next mail will convey the glad tidings of the complete relief of the gallant garrison, and of the numerous non combatants who had received shelter and protec tion, under their care. A load of anxiety will thus be removed from the national mind. At Agra, too, all was quiet up to the 19th, so that in all the more important points everything was going on as well and satisfactory as could possibly have been desired. There have been some trifling manifestations of furthar disaffection. The following are the most important :—" A conspiracy having been dis covered among the gunners of the 21st Regiment of Bombay Native Infantry, they were disarmed at Kurrachee on the 14th of September, the men having organised an extensive plot to murder the European inhabitants. Eighteen of the conspi rators were summarily executed, and twenty-two transported for life. At Shikrapore, in Upper Scinde, a disturbance occurred on the 23d of September, the Native Artillerymen having seized the guns, but were soon beaten off by the loyal portion of the troops. An attempt was also made at Ahmedabad on the 15th of September to create a mutiny among the 2d Bombay Grenadiers, but the ringleaders were seized before they could carry out their designs." We also hear that Saugor and Jubbulpore were threatened by the Dinapore rebels under KOOEIC SINGEL. We may, however, trust to the energetic Major EYRE, to render a satisfactory account of this miscreant. We also learn that a wing of the 4th King's Own had arrived from the Mauritius, and been despatched to Kurrachee. A portion of her Majesty's 05th had arrived from the Cape, and the rest daily expected. All is quiet in the Punjaub and the Deccan. The Bombay and Madras Presidencies also tranquil ; and her Ma jesty's ships Sanspareil, Shannon, Pearl, Penelope, Basle, Himalaya, and Adventure, are at Cal cutta. The steamer Thebes arrived at Galls with Dart of the 38th Regiment, on the 31 of October. The only alloy to our satisfaction is the follow ing :—" A body of insurgents, who were threaten ing Gaya, had been dispersed by a small force, chiefly composed of Sikhs, under Major Bartray. The rebels had, however, crossed the river in his rear, and, reaching the town in the evening, had liberated the prisoners from the gaol, and took their departure next morning. A small number of Europeans who were entrenched in a bungalow, were not molested." But this is slight in com parison to the glorious result so ardently looked for by every English heart—the destruction of Delhi, the overthrow of the octogenarian usurper, and the all but certainty of the speedy relief of Lucknow. Since writing the above we have received from the Foreign-office the names of the officers who were included amongst those injured more or less se verely in the contest. It will be seen that Gene ral nezonsoN, Major JA. cos, and other well known officers, are amongst those whose names will be entered on the rolls of Fame, and who will find a monument more enduring than brass in the memory of their grateful country. The bullionist organ has made a great disco very. It announces that " the entire suspension of specie payments by the New York and Boston banks is the most satisfactory announcement that could have been looked for," and that, "had the step been taken a fortnight earlier, an immense amount of ruin might have been averted e r This is a candid and a valuable admission. It shows that even the Times itself has abandoned the OVEZSTONE or MERCATOR doctrine, that " a re laz-ttion ought only to take place in the last ex tremity, when the danger of general confusion had become imminent." It now begins to see the error of its ways, and warned by the New York ex ample, where the banks have fallen in consequence of the reckless sacrifice of the commercial com munity, perceives that the panic may be permitted to go too far—that the moneyocracy may be in volved in one common ruin with their intended victims—" the Engineer hoist with his own petard." Surely, then, the same remedy which, according to the Leviathan, has proved so effectual in New York, might be judiciously applied at this side of the Atlantc. It tells us that there the effect of the suspension " was instantaneous." Every one seemed to feel that the ordinary channels of business would forthwith be restored,'and that from that moment the progress of recovery wou ld commence;" that "everything was going on quietly, and that all excitement had passed away." Adding as a comment that " this result was per fectly natural. Tao inconvertible paper of the banks would now circulate at a value in propor tion to the discreti , in with which it might be l i sau a e tll d ;7 b o d l s e a w pppoasr.in: it to be kept with in close its, there is no reason that it should fall much, f m The a b ove can fe2sion embodies all for which the anti-bulli euista have asserted that have long contended. We issued within With inconvertible paper money discreet limitg ' and on abundantly sufficient security, th ere will be no danger of its falling much, if at all, below falling would be a far more eftPaere.tu. a fact,n mode i f ts p r s e o . venting the continuous drain of gold, th an any ruinous increase in the rata of discount, however to the internal trade and commerce of the country, while the former would have but a very trivial effect thereon. That internal trade was never more prosperous than when there was an adequate supply of inconvertible paper money, and that notwithstanding the depressing influences of economy, taxation, and heavy Government loans. Here, too, the game is beginning to produce its results. The Liverpool Borough Bank, although perfectly solvent, had been obliged to apply for assistance to the Bank of England. The claim being perfectly legitimate, and the security unde niable, was favourably entertained by the Direc tors. But on what conditions ? Simply that the Bank should wind up its affairs, and discontinue business ! ! Here is an establishment with 950,0001. of paid-up capital, and a reserve fund of 101,202/. compelled to discontinue business. Great banking facilities will thus be withdrawn from the Liverpool community, and there is nothing to supply them. The Bank of England seeks to swallow up all the minor establishments, to render its own mono poly still more grinding and oppressive - to the people. Other large failures are also reported, and it is impossible to say to what an extent matters may proceed unless a Government letter, similar to that of October, 1847, be forth with issued. And then, when all the mischief has occurred, when the panic has reached its extreme point, we shall have the Times com placently announcing that, "Had the step been taken a fortnight earlier, an immense amount of ruia might have been averted." Is it not time that the people should take matters into their own bands, and not submit as helpless victims? If Government will do anything, well ; if not, there may be a monetary revolution, of which it is impossible t , ) predict the results. The Earl of Lincoln arrived in Dover-street on Satur day, from Wilton House, Salisbury. The Earl and Countess of Stamford and Warrington arrived in town from Enville Hall, Staffordshire, on Thursday last, and left on Saturday for Bradgate-paik, Leicester, for the hunting season. Sir Edwin and Lady Scudamore Stanhope, of Holme Lacy, Herefordshire, have left Maurigy's Hotel for Hastings. We regret to hear that the Right Hon. Joseph Napier is confined to his bed at Hawlewood.- Enniskillen paper. Colonel de Salis and Captain Phillips, Bth Hussars, left London on Sunday last for Marseilles!, en route fir Bombay. THE PRINCE CONSORT'S HARRIERS.—This excellent pack have had several days' private hunting in the neighbourhood of Windsor. LONDON MODEL YACHT CLUE.—The next general meeting of this club will be held on Tuesday, Nov. 3, at Anderton's Hotel, Fleet-street. THE SUSPENSION BRIDGE in ST. JAMES'S-PARIC.— Yestsrday the new suspension bridge erected across the centre of the lake in St. James's-park was opened for public traffic. The National Bank of Belgium has fixed the discount of accepted bills at 5i per cent. ; of non-accepted bills at 6 per cent. ; and of Treasury bills of all dates at 5i per cent. The Committee of Mexican Bondholders have re ceived advices from Mr. Whiteheal, of the 19th tilt., from which it appears very doubtful whether matters will have been sufficiently advanced by the time that the next packet leaves to expect any remittance sent by her for the dividend fund. OLYMPIC THEATRE.—Last evening a new oomedietta, entitled "Deadly Reports," by Palgrave Simpson, Esq., was produced here. The incidents are of some what too improbable a nature, coupled with the exceed ing temerity of plot, to call for more than a record of its partial success. Letters from Naples'state that a palace is in prepara tion for the reception of the King of Prussia, who has advised by his physicians to pass the winter in Italy, but according to the latest account from Berlin the journey is unavoidably postponed, the King probably not being strong enough to travel so far. THE IRISH MILITIA.—The Waterford Artillery are now quartered in Kinsale Barracks. Tbe regiment at present is only about 400 strong, with 200 women and children. The Louth Cork permanent staff now occupy Bandon Barracks. The North Cork Rifles, at present stationed at Fermoy, are under orders for England. Acoording to the last accounts from Persia, consider able damage has been caused by shocks of earthquake, particularly in the .A.dherbidjan. The small town of Tesong has been almost entirely destroyed. In Georgia the Kour left its bed and inundated the country and several towns on its banks, A Berlin correspondent says that the best understand ing exists between the Queen of Prussia and the Prince, but that it is not the same with the Princess of Prussia, who has been requested not to appear at Pttsdani. " The liberal views of her royal highness, so openly ex pressed since 1848, have given great offence to the gam. WEST KENT REGISTBATION.—The revision of the lists of voters commenced at Sevenoaks, on Wednesday, the 231 ult., and terminated at Greenwich, on Monday, the 12th instant. Sutjoined is the result as furnished by the Secretary of the West Kent Liberal Registration Association :—Liberalclaims admitted, 613 ; Tory, 361 ; Liberal gain on claims, 252. Struck off Mr. What. man's poll, 266 ; Mr. Smith's 202 ; Tory gain on objee tions, 64 • total Liberal gain, 188. TEE NATIONAL GALLERY.—Yesterday the picture newly purchased at Venice for the nation—Paul Vero. flue's "Family of Darius at the feet of Alexander after the battle of fssus"—was—with several other recent acquisitions, chiefly of the Tuscan school—exhibited to the public at the National Gallery, in Trafalgar -s=quare, on its re-opening. The paintings of the British school are also again open to inspection at Marlborough-hou se . DEATH OF ALEXANDER LAING, THE SCOTTISH SONG WRITER. —The Montrose Standard says :—Alexander Laing, the author of many beautiful Scottish lyrics, breathed his last on Wednesday morning at Brechin. He ventured on the publication of his pieces in one volume under the title of " Wayside Flowers," and this has gone through two editions, and a third is now in progress. His "Archie Allan," "Mary, the Maid of Montrose," and the "Braes of Mar," entitle him to rank high among our Scottish writers." EAST KENT ELECTION.—The Sussex Gazette says :-- "The Liberals at the next election will direct their ar. tillery against Sir Brook Bridges, and the attitude assumed by Sir E. Daring and Mr. Knatchbull Hugessen of active hostility will render it necessary for Sir Brook's friends to buckle on their armour, or he will be thrown. The Conservatives, however, must stand shoulder to shoulder; there must be no division ; it must ba for Deedes and Bridges' they must vote, and no plumper' to secure a favourite candidate." TEE BATTLE •3 BALAKLAVA.—Yesterday being th anniversary of the batik of Balaklava, the officers who were engaged on that occasion dined together at a spl did banquet at the London Tavern, Covers were laid for 50, and the chair was taken by General Sir James Scarlett, K.C.8., supported by the Earl of Lucan, 1C.C.8., Lord George Paget, C. 8., Colonels Douglas, Hodge, C. 8., Conolly, Lew, Mayow, Wardland, Shute, and Hartopp ; Majors Jenyns, Brown, and Manley ; Captains George, Sandeman, Giynn, Hunt, ece. ; Sir G. Wombwell. The Paris letters mention that the idea of a suspension of specie payments by the Bank of France finds nurnor. one influential advocates, who are determined to urge it strongly, in preference to an unlimited rise in the rate of ' discount, should affairs get wor.-e. The question is alleged even to have been discussed at a sitting of the Bank. Except as a remedy for internal and uncontrol lable panic, when it is demanded as a temporary protec tion for the majority against the in:nority, the step wou:d be one of such flagrant dishonesty that it may be hop -d it will be summarily discarded. The Government, it is said, are determined not to sanction it. At pre sen t, so far from there being any serious pressure, the best paper can be negotiated at a half per cent, below the Bank rate of 7i per cent. The movement on the subject there fore may obviously be attributed to the hopes of igno norant speculators on the BOUN..—Titnes' City Article. THE WRECK OF THE ONTARIO. —Oa Saturday even ing Mr. Press, coroner fir Noriolt, held an inquest at C tistor, near Great Yarmouth, on the bodies of Mrs. Balfour, the wife of the captain, and of a seaman from the unfortunate Ontario of S Aida Shields, lost on the Barber Sands, with nearly all bade (23 in all), in the gale which vi-ited the eastern coast on Thursday nig and Friday morning. The bcdies, which were much disfigured, were viewed by the juryin the life-boat house at Caistor, and a verdict of "accidentally drowned" was returned. The jury at the same time exprassed a strong opinion as to the neglected state into which the lite-hoat at Caistcr has fallen. Mrs. Bali nir was washed a-bore from the Ontario in her night-dre-s, and a portion of the crew were probably in their berths when the ship struck an the sand. The eastern coast has not been visited with such a fearful gale for many years. THE FORTHCOMING MICHAELIUS TBELIC —The lists of rules in the common law courts for the forthcoming Nlichaelmas Term, corninencin; on Monday next, have ju,t bean Ex iibit.ol, and died ise the gratifying fact that. there are only 74 in the three C Aarts-35 in the QueetA Bench, 25 in the CDMMOU Plea'', and 14 in the Excile quer. The Chancery vacation will terminate on Tnur,- day next, when the several officas will resume business, the common I,tw vacation having ended on Saturda Y rove in a good do.l of business in the Chancery and chinnion law courts. The reforms sf late years lave simplified the mode of proceAre, and the result has been an accession of business. At common law there is no cessation in the long vacation, except in pleadings. Under the new Bills of Exchange Act, unless a judge gives leave to appear, an action can be coruniencad and concluded in the vacation. In the Court of Chancery there is a cessation except on pressing matters. It is said that a little more expedition in the offices of the examiners would be a public benefit. The registration appeals from the courts of the revising barristers will be heard by the Common Pleas in the term. The Lord Chancellor will receive the judges, etc., at his residence, on the first day of the ensuing term, to breakfast, amt. then fornially opens the courts. LATET NEWS. F ALL DELHI. GREAT LOSS OF LIFE. The following telegram was received at the Fo reign -office (through the Commissioners for the Affairs of India) on the 27th October, (this day) at 10.30 a.rn. Delhi was assaulted on the morning of September the 14th, and the northern part of the city taken. On the 16th the magazine was stormed ; and on the 20th the whole city was occupied. The King and hie sons escaped disguised as women. The attack on the 14th was made with four columns, one of which, composed of the Cashmere Contingent, was repulsel ; the other columns were successful. An entrance was first effected at the Cashmere Gate. An advance was then made along the ram parts to the main bastion and Cabul Gate. The resistance was very obstinate, and our loss was computed at 600 killed and wounded, includ ing 50 officers. KILLED. The following names have been received : Major Jacob, Ist Fusiliers.

The mutineers of the Jodhpore Legion defeated the Rajah of Jodhpore's troops, killing the General on the 9th of September ; and taking three guns, they then joined the rebellious Thakoor of Arrah. General Lawrenc3 proceeded, on the 18th Sep tember, with a detachment from Beawr, and at tacked the rebels. He compelled them to take refuge in the town of Gya, but found the place too strong for an assault to be risked, acid accordingly fell back on Beawr. Captain Monk Mason, the political agant in Jodhpore, was killed. in endeavouring to join Gan. Lawreuce's forc3. The Bombay Government has snit up her Ma jesty's 89th Regiment, and oth)r European troops, to the Northern Division, to enable Gen. Roberts to reinforce General Lawrence. INDORE AND GWALIOR. Malwa is btill in a disturbed stita ; but nothing worthy of note has occurred. In Gwalior, Siudia btat ed t) be raising a force of 10,000 men for the purpose of intercepting the fugitives from Delhi.;; A portion of the Mhow and lud.ore rebels are reported to have crossed the Chumbul. SCINDE. Th 3 company of Native Artillery at Hyderabad having b. en suspected of disaffection was disarmed on the 9,h of September, and the guns secured. The 21st Native Infantry at Kurrachee was dis armed on the 13th of September, information hay ing been given by two native officers of an intended outbreak. Conspiracy is believed to have been con fined to a few men. Twenty-five deserted, but have teen ahn:st all taken and executed. . _ At Shikarpore on the 21st September, a Subadar and a Havildar of the 16th Native Infantry were arrested on suspicion of plotting a rising in that regiment. Ou the night of the 23d of Sep tember, elev en m en of the Native Com pany of Artillery seized the guns ; they were not joined• by others, and the guns were retaken by a Company of 16th Natiy Infantry, the rest of the Artillery Company, and the police ; four of the mutineers were killed, and the rest got away in the dark. The Bombay Government has sent a wing of the 4th Foot, just arrived from the Mauritius, to Kurrachee.
