" In the meantime certain workmen informed the na tive officers and troopers of the 2d Cavalry that the Eng lish were digging a mine from the hospital in the direc tion of their (the cavalry) barracks for the purpose of blowing them up, adding that if they did not immedi ately leave and take their horses with them they would be blown into the air. Accordingly, without lose of time, the whole of the cavalry turned out and assembled on the parade ground with flashing eyes and clamorous for blood. not pay any attention to this request, and at once killed them, and hundreds of lower-class servants (cnahtura nees), &c., who wore English clothes, were shot and cut down with swords.

He belongs to the Ist Native Infantry, and is said to be a most intelligent man : " When the mutiny broke out at Cawnpore he was with three companies •f his regiment, the first, or Gillie Pultun, at Banda. On the breaking out of the. Sepoy at Bands Nujor Jewarree saved the life of a Mr. Punt can and his wife (Mr. Duncan was a writer and structed this Dian in English), by concealing them in his hut, and afterwards reporting to the Rajah that they were willing to turn Mussulonans. For this the Sepoy fell into ill odour with his comrades, and when the mutineers marched into Cawnpore the Nana took away all he had—about 300 rs.— and confined him with foul' more Sepovs in the same house with the Europeans. At the fight of Futtehpore ha was released by the Nana', went back to the Gundee Nuddee, and thence came over to the English. His account of the Nana's treacherous attack on the boats and the escape and recapture of one of the boats 'is as follows : "On the 9th the firing commenced as usual, and it was reported that the general had been wounded by a gun shot, and one English paper was brought by a man into the battery to the Nana ; in that paper was written on the part of all the gentlemen, We have become Hindo stanees, why do yow, having taken the magazine, fire upon us Give us permission, and we will go to Calcetta; and to kill women and children of our religion as you do is exceedingly bad, and such deeds were never com• mitted under any reign ;' but the Nana returned no answer, and the firing was continued as usual. "On the 10th June, as usual, the firing commenced from the 24, 18, .and 4-pounders, and one lady and one grown up young lady and three children were coming along in a carriage from the direction of the west, and on the road some one had killed the lady's hu , band, but, not considering it proper to kill women and children, had alloyed them to escape. However, the troopers of the 2d Cavalry caught them, and brought them into the pres_nce of the Nana, who ordered them to be killed at once, although the lady begged the Nana to spare her life ; but this disgraceful man would not in any way hearken to her, and took them all into fae plain. At that time the sun was ♦ery hot, and the lady said, The sun is very hot, take me into the shade ;' but no one listened. On four sides the children were catching hold of their mother's gown, and saying, Mamma, come to the bungalow and give me some bread and water.' At length, having been tied hand to hand, and made to stand up on the plain, they were shot down by pistol bullets.

"At midnight, Thursday, the 4th of June, the 2d Ca valry and the 11 regiment N.L, having loaded their muskets and pistols, proceeded in the direction of the officers' bungalows with the intention of burning them, and on arrival at the treasury and magazine they took possession of both and commenced loading the treasure, computed at 15 lace—some people say more—on carts and bullocks. When about 90,000 rupees remained to be removed, no carriage being available, the native offi cers gave the order t:) plunder it, and immediately the Sepoys and others carried off what remained. Having helpedithemselvee to as much powder and ammunition as they wished, the 2d Cavalry and let Native Infantry took violent possession of two iron guns, which Dhoondu Nana had with him in his camp, near the magazine; and with these they proceeded to confront the European offi cers,.and also showed a disposition to use violence to the Nana himself. „el HESTER AUTUMN' • RACES, 1857. xJ In consequence of her vajesty having appointed Wednesday, the 7th Oct' ber for a Genera Fast-day, I beg to inform the public that CHESTER RACES wlt' take pace on uONDAY and TUE-- DAY, the sth and 6th of )c'ober, instead of Tuesday and Wednes day, the 6th' and 7th, as he-etofore adieitised: _ _ Trainers will.' herefore observe that the Selling Stakes for the First Day's Rar es will close on Saturday next, and the others on Monday evening, between the bout sot six and seven. E. W. TOPHASf, Clerk of the Course. Chester, 28th Sept. 1857. " When the Nana's guns opened on the boat in which Wheeler Sahib, the General, was (it has now been fully ascertained from servants and others who were with the English party that General Wheeler was not dead before the massacre, but was put wounded on board th'e boats) he cut its cable and dropped down the river. Some little way dcwn the boat got stuck near the shore. The infantry and guns came up and opened fire. The large gun they could not manage, not knowing how to work the elevating screw, and did not use it. With the small gun they fired grape tied up in bags, and the infantry fired with their muskets. This went on all day. It did not hurt the Sahib log much. They returned the fire with their rifles from the boat, and wounded several ~f the Sepoys on the bank, who therefore drew off to wards evening. The sepoys procured a very big boat into which they all got, and dripped down ~he river upon the Sahib's boats. Then the Sahibs fired again with their rifles and wounded more Sepoys in the boat, and they drew off and left them. At night came a great rush of water in the river, which flawed off the Sahib's boat, and they passed on down the river, but owing; o the storm and the dark night they only proceeded three or four Icons. In the meantime intelligence of the Sahib's defence had reached the Nana, and he sent off that night three more companies of the native regiment (let Oude Infantry) and surrounded the Sahib's boat, and so took them and brought them back to Cawnpore. then came out of that boat 60 Sahibs and 25 mem- Sahibs and four children—one boy and three halfsgroivn girls. The Nana then ordered the mein-Sahibs to be separated from the Sahibs to be shot by the Gillis Puitun (Ist Bengal Native Infantry) ; but they said, We will sot shoot Wheeler Sahib, who has made our Pultun's name great, and whose son is our quartermaster ; wither will we kill the Sahib-log. Put them in prison.' Then said the Nadire Pultun, What word is this Put them in prison ; we will kill the male.' So the Sahib log were seated on the ground, and two companieS of the Nadire Pultun plaoed them-ely' a over against them, with their muskets ready to fire. Then said one of the mem-Sahibs—the doctor's wife she. was, I don't know his name, but he was either superintending-surgeon or medical storekeeper—' I will not leave my hus hsnd ; if he must die I will die with him.' So she ran and sat down behind her husband, clasp iog him round the waist. Directly she said this the other !nem-Sahibs said, We will also die with our hus bands ;' and they all went and sat down beside their husbands. Then their husbands said, Go back,' but they would not. Whereupon the Nana ordered his sol diers, and they going in pulled them forcibly away, seizing them by the arm; but they could not pull away the Doctor's wife, who there remained. Then, just as the Sepoys were going to fire, the padre (chaplain) called out to the Nana and requested leave to read prayers before they died. The Nana granted it. The padre's bonds were unloosed so far as to enable him to take a small book out of his pocket, from which be read ; but all this rinse one of the Sahib-logs, who was shot in the arm and the leg, kept crying out to the Sepoys, 'lf you mean to kill us, why don't you set about it quickly and get the work done ? Why delay ?' After the padre had read a few prayers he shut the book, and the Sahih-log shook hands all round. Then the Sepoys fired. One Sahib rolled one way, one another, as they sat, but they were not dead, only wounded ; so they went in and finished them off with swords. After this the whole of the women and children (that is, including those taken Out . of other boats), to the number of 122, were taken away to the yellow house, which was your hospital. This was the Bithoor Rajah's house in the civil lines, where I and four more Sepoys were confined, and where I had the opportunity of talking to the sergeant-major's wife. After this. when we (Sepoys) were taken down with the Nana to Futtehpore, the women and children were taken away to the house where they were afterwards murdered. " ' Were any of our women dishonoured by the Nana or his people ?' None that I know of, excepting in the case of Gen. Wheeler's youngest daughter, and about this lam not certain. This was her circumstance. As they were taking the mein-Sahibs out of the boat a sower (cavalry man) took her away with him to his house. She west quietly, but at night she rose and got hold of the 'owar's sword. He was asleep ; his wife, his son, and his mother in-law were sleeping in the house with him. She killed them all with the swan', and then she went and threw herself down the well behind the house. In the morning, when people came and found the dead in the house, the cry was, Who has done this 1' Then a neighbour said that in the night he had seen some one go and throw himself in the well. They went and looked, and there was Misses Baba, dead and swollen." Our correspondent adds NIANCUESTER ART TREASURES EXHIBITION. NORTH LO;cDON" RAILWAY.

" At that time the Nana was present, and told the Sepo3s he was on their side, and that, although as far outward appealanoes showed, he had come to assist the officers, yet from his heart and soul he was the deadly enemy of the English. " On the 11th of June the firing commenced ae neesl, but when the balls from the aide of the rebels were fired, some fell on the parapet, and some passed over the bar rack altogether, and sometimes in the barrack. At that time the gentlemen remained inside the bomb-proof house, and whenever the rebels' firing was very severe they answered it by firing one or two rounds of grape, which killed 10 or 12 sepoys ; in fact, during the whole day they fired one or two rounds, and at midnight about 20 European soldiers made a sortie on the 4-pounder, which was placed on the western side of the battery under the command of Eman-00-Doolab, son of Aga Meer, and having spiked the gun, returned. That night two Euro pean soldiers were killed, and every day the Nana and Etnan-od-Doolah, through fear, went to the Lala Bagb, and the sepoys of the regiment that day killed a burton wale, and lace of rupees and property were plundered. None dare say to the Sepoys, • You villains, what are you doing 1' and one lady, the wife of Mukan Sahib, merchants, who had for four or fire days been hiding under the grass of her bungalow, came out of the bunga low at evening time, and was discovered. She bad through fear changed her appearance by putting on an _Hinclostanee bodice, and folding a towel around her head. She was taken before the Nana, who ordered her to be killed. The writer of this journal having gone in person, saw that the head of that lady was cut off and presented as a nazir (gift of royalty) ; and in the place where hun dreds of Christians, and ladies and children were killed, in the direction of the Takhano, a crowd remained, and a Rampoori trooper, by caste a Mussultnan, of the 2d Irregular Cavalry, remained in the presence of the Nana, and killed these innocent ones ; and whenever an order was given to slay anybody, that same trooper used to slay them.

" After this the Nana remained with"the Sepoys, and they all elected him their commander ; and on that day (Friday, sth June), the Nana went inside the magazine and released all the prisoners, amounting to about 400, who were ironed and fettered ; and gave the order that whichever prisoner was willing to follow► him should arm himself with gun, sword, or pistol, as he liked, and if any of them preferred going to their homes they could do so. At that time hundrds of prisoners, and citizens, and Sepoys, belonging to the Nana, and to the company, joined together, and each man took from the armoury what arms he wished ; and, having sent a great quantity of property to their homes, the 21 Cavalry and Ist N.I. formed the intention of going to Delhi ; and their inten tion was to present the treasure and ammunition to the King, who is sitting upon the throne at that city, and remain in his service.

These last-named regiments had been from the first displeased. and on account of the cartridges had shown anger ; but they had not the slightest intention of causing a disturbance. However, the 2d Cavalry and Ist Native Infantry went down armed to their parade ground and called out the native officers and sepoys. After a lengthened debate among men of different persuasions, the Mussulmans having joined together, proclaimed tha'. if these two re giments would not jointheM they would be outcasts from their religion and useless, and said, We will cut off each other's heads and sacrifice our lives upon this very spot, and you will bring dishonour among yourselves.' At length, after much debating, they brought these two re giments over to their own way cf thinking, and made preparations to go to the village of Kullianpoor, where the 2d Cavalry and lsi Nati ve I n f antry, and Nana Dhoondu Pant were encamped. Several bad sepoys formed a plan to kill the officers of their respective regi ments. At that time several officers, bareheaded, fell at the feet of the sepoys and begged their lives, and many sepoys showed them mercy and let them go, when they made off and sought the protection of the hospital or intrenched camp, while the tvvo.regiments, the 53d and 56th, having armed themselves, accompanied the muti neers to Kuilianpoor. 4 ' When Nana Dhoondu Pant saw that the three native regiments and the 2d Light Cavalry bad completely thrown off their allegiance to the Company and were thinking of going to Delhi, ho, with joined hands, repro- Rented to the native officers that it would not be correct to proceed towards Delhi until they had entirely de stroyed the officers area European soldiers and womenand children of the Christian religion ; and that they should, if possible, by deceiving the officers, accomplish this grand object, or that they would be good for nothing. The native officers and sepoys approved this speech, and took counsel to kill all the Christians, and, plun dering as they went, on Saturday, the 6th June, they returned to the soubadar's tank, near the Gwat Tola, and having placed a 24-pounder on the western side of the English encampment, at the distance of 508 yards, and one 4 pounder to the northern side, and one 4-pounder to the southern side, commenced firing upon the hospital, in which about 100 gentlemen, military and civil, and about 200 European soldiers, and, more or less, 100 bandsmen, of the Christian religion, for fear of their lives, bad assembled. At that time in the city of Cawnpore it was as if the day of judgment had come, and when the Sepoys of the infantry and troopers of the cavalry, the jingling of whose sword scabbards and the tread of whose horses' feet resounded on all sides, pro ceeded with guns of various sizes, and ammunition, from the magazines, through the Gwat Tola, which forms part of the suburbs of Cawnpore, towards the intreoched camp, I, the writer of this journal, was present and saw this with my. own eyes, and heard what was going on, and bodies of Sepoys, both Hindoo and Mussulman, were, shouting. From one side the cry came, Victory to Rajah Chuod ;' and some were calling out, Snout, ye faithful army, Allah has routed the Kafirs !' in facto every one was saying whatever came upmost in his mind ; and all the shops in the city had been closed for several days, but in whatever shop the Sepoys entered to ask for sugar, or goor, they plundered everything belonging to the citizen that they could find, so much so that plunder and oppression was the order of the day. Every violent man did what came into his mind, and the troopers got possession of a note, the interest of which amounted to 25,000r5., belonging to Einan-00-Daulah and Bakir Alee, eons of Nsiwab Aga Meer, and plun dered very much property and cash and supplies, and also took these two men with them to render assistance, and gave them possession of a battery ; and one troop, or thereabouts, left the cantonments and proceeded to tho buildings in which the civil and revenue and judicial courts were held, and commenced firing them. At that time the state of the cantonments was such as if the people were surrounded with fire, and no citizen had lope left of his life or honour. In fact, they spoiled and destroyed the whole of the courts ; and in the other direction, from a'l three sides, guns were fired at the English entrenchments to that extent that the ground seemed to be turning upside down. At first the Europeans fired round shot and grape upon the three batteries with great effect, killing two troopers and six Sepoys ; and when the sun became very hot the Euro stens ceased firing for about three hours, and the whole night the firing was continued, and many round shot fell upon the parapets of the rebels' battery, and also round shot fell on all sides of the barrack ; nevertheless, the Sepoys and troopers proposed to discharge 10 24- pounders, and take the entrenched camp by storm, and kill man, woman, and child.

The moon shone bright and clear, and not a cloud n's' seen throughout the whoh, expanse of heaven About 11 o'clock I had my bed brought out as usual, where the sentry was pacing up and down, a.,(1 lay down in nay clothes, having tnereiy changed my coat fora dress ing-gown. I had not been half an hour on my bed when two guns were fired, at intervals of a few seconds, by Walker's battery ; this was evidently a preconcerted signal, for immediately after several shots were fired in the direction of the cavalry lines, and bungalow aft , r bungelo.v was set on fire. I assembled my night guard at once, and wautcd them to accompany nic to C.,p tain Laurie's house, where I expected to find some whom I intended to eicort towards the fort or fortified square. The Naick,' (or corporal), said there was no use in going, that we should be killed by the cavalry, and strongly advised ins to retire. I was going over myselr, when I saw the Naick of Capt. bl• Donald's guard running towards me ; he was in a great state of excitement, and taking hold of ma by the arm begged me not to go that way ; the mem log ' (ladies) he said had all fled, and the place was now filled by the inatine,rs. I saw sumo natives running about and presently several shots were fired not far from where I was standing. 'Cbullo, Sahib, golee chulte' (`Come along, sir, the balls are flying about ') ,aid the Naick, who now entreated me to leave the place or I should be killed. Seeing that the affair had at, last become seriou', I desired nay 'syce' (or groom) to saddle my horse and bring him over to the fort. The Naick said For G id's sake, Sahib, don't go to the fort—fly at once into the country.' I asked him what he meant. He answered, all the fighting will take place in the fort.' All right,' I said, am going to fight too.' Upon this he insisted on going with me, and called out to the two Sepoys of the guard to follow. They came immediately, and on our way to the f rt (which was only about 300 yards from our house) he told me that as soon as the bungalows were plundered and burnt the muti neers would attack the fort, in order to carry off the treasure. (We had about three lace of treasure in the fort, i.e. 30,0001.) I asked him how he knew that ; he replied Such is the report.'

"On the 12th of June the firing commenced as usual, and it was reported that from the direction of the Pen jab a number of Europeans were assembled. Immediately one troop of cavalry and two companies of infantry were sent to recinnoitre, when it was found that about 136 European soldiers and woman and children bad come in three boats from some station to the east, and when they heard that in every station disturbances had taken place between Ilindoos and Mussultnans they immediately took to their boats and started, with the intention of going to Calcutta ; but the troopers seized them all and took them to the Nana, who ordered that they should all be killed, and sundry Rampoori troopers of the ?Atli animal's of the 2d Cavalry, whom the Nan% kept with him for the cypress ptypoee, killed them all. Among them was a young lady, the daughter of some general. She addressed herself much to the Nana, and said, 'No king ever committed such oppression as you have, and in no religion is there any order t, kill wotuen and chile ran. I do not know what has happened to you. Be well assured that by this slaughter the English will not became less ; whoever may remain will have an eye upon you.' But the Nana paid no attention and showed her no mercy, and ordered that she should be killed, and that they should fill her hands with powder, and kill her by the explosion ; and in the two or three days during which these disturbances were going on, hundreds of boats were collected from east to west, and the order was given that without permission not a single boat should be loosed, lest perhaps any European soldier or Christian might escape in it, and from all sides the importation of grain was stopped, and it became very expensive, inasmuch as before the dis turbance 23 seers of wheat was sold for a rupee, and after three or four days only 12 seers were obtainable."

I was sorry to learn from him that he had been fired at by a Sepoy of the regiment immediately after he had given the order for the left wing to march to the fort. I looked upon this as a bad sign, for I had all along felt confident that the greater part of the regiment would stand by us. The fact of their not attempting to seize the mutineer who fired at Lieut. Rose shook my faith i❑ them very much.

Its perusal is particularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of their phys cal c-ndition, arid who are conscious of having hazarded the bor Ith, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is eatitlet.. It to obsolutely necessary that all men should know that there are rinciples of personal management which cannot be violated with out incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret suc ceed thebeyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how those penalties may be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed, and how the evil and its consequences maybe avoided, and, above all, that there is scarcely any degree of phystc,d infirmity or functional derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure.

We are glad to be able to present our readers with the first authentic narrative which has been received in this country of the events at Cawnpore imme diately preceding the massacre of the garrison. This painful but singularly interesting document is thus described by the officer from whom it was received : " I am enabled to send you a translation made by myself of about one-half of a native journal kept at Cawnpore during the siege. It is, am afraid, in correct in some particulars, but it is in the main a true translation. It was written so badly that the natives could not read some of the words, and, I was obliged to omit them to make the translation readable without them. The names of the Euro pean merchants cannot be identified, but I have translated them as well as I could :—" " For some time back there was a report in Cam" pore that the Government would serve out to their army cat tridges which had been prepared in the bladders of pigs and bullocks (instead of paper, and that, these cart ridges had atrived, or were expected shortly, from Eng land. On this account the minds of the Sepoys, both Hindoo and Mussulman, having become estranged from their allegiance to Government, they formed plans for the destruction of the Christians. When the Govern ment officers perceived that the Sepoys disobeyed seve ral orders, the collector, Sahib Bahadoor, having taken several elephants belonging to Nana Dhoondu Pant, son of Bajee Rao Peishwa, deceased, went to the trea sury for the purpose of weighing out the treasure. At that time the Sepoys guarding the treasure said—' We will not let you take away the treasure ;' and although the collecto tried his utmost to load the treasure on the elephants the Sepoys would not let him take it away. The collector then said, 'lf this is your intention, nett Monday guards of European soldiers shall be sent to the magazine and treasury.' On hearing this the Sepoys and havildar and jemadar unanimously answered, This shall not be as long as we are alive, because in these two posts a gaard of European soldiers never was and never shall be placed; and, moreover, it the magazine or treasure should go on command we will accompany it.' "The collector then went away, and when the gentle men of the station saw that the whole of the troops were acting in oppte-ition to orders and had become mutinous, they sent for 300 or 400 cavalry and infantry, belonging to Nana aforesaid, from Bithoor, for their protection and assistance, and placed them near the magazine; and the Nana himself, with joined hands, told the judge, collec tor, and general, and other high officers, in whose attendance ho remained, that he would assist the Government to the greatest extent of his power, but at the time of the death of Bajee Rao Peish wa, which happened about three years ago, a por tien of the Peishwa's pension (one lac and 25,000 rupees per annum) to the amount of 62,000 rupees was due, and the Government confiscated the whole of it ; and although his son Dhoondu aforesaid solicited that a part of that pension should be continued to him, yet the Government officers answered him, We are the heirs of Bajee Rao Peishwa, you will not get a fraction.' Several of the officers appeared in a new light, and from that identical Dhoondu Nana solicited the assistance of his troops, forgetting the enmity of his heart. The officers, civil and military, when they perceived that the Sepoys had become unmanageable, and that tbere were daily Commotions among them, commenced digging a ditch and making intrenchments around the new hospital which had been built for the sick of three infantry and one cavalry regiments; and for the preparation of this iafnol wages r tr rf en our c r( h ai s. l o e ,e n dsf t oa, thousandsnuyintehris the waf .4e, rrpe iefid o r e f u„ ,dgti w ie;o o t i a) k nww t d n ae e sar n el l, employed,rt h e receiving iei completed,ng officers, a d a dc u di b ov toin e l and military, with 20Q Europeans, and women and chil- CURES (tt ithout Physic) of indigestion (Dyspepsia), Constipation, Flatulent y, Phlegm, all Nervous, Bilious, and Liver Complaints, Ily,teria, Neuralgia, Dysentry, Diarrhoea, Acidity, Palpitation, Ilearthar4, Headache, Debility, Despondency, Cramps, Spasms, Nausea, end Sickness (during pregnancy or at sea), Sinking Fits, Cough, A;thwia, Bronchitis, Consumption, also Children's Com plaints ate effected by 1 111 BARRY'S delicious REVALENTA AIZARICA FOOD, which restores health without purging, inconvenience, or ekpense, as it saves fifty times its cost in other remedies.

" On Sunday, the 7th June, the firing was commenced according to custom, on all sides, and about one troop of the 2d Cavalry having entered the Gwat Tole, com mitted a great deal of oppression upon the inhabitants ; and they seized Darogha Asim Ales Khan of Lucknow, who for several years had been erecting houses near the residence of the sous of Aga Meer, and told him, You have brought away plenty of money from the Lucknow people by deceit, give us a la. of rupees ;' and some oue said that certain Europeans and women were hidden in his house. On this, without further inquiry, a gun loaded with grape wars fired into his house, and two or three of his servants were killed. At last they took the Darogha prisoner into their camp, and wished to tie him to a loaded gun in the presence of the Nana, but the Nana let him go on the payment of 1,000 r., and sent him to collect ammunition in the battery on hundreds of bullocks and elephants, and carts and doolies, &c., and whatever he could lay his bands upon. The burning of the officers' bungalows now commenced, and the burnt laungabws became, as it were, a black line, and when ever an Englishman or European soldier or woman or child were found they were put to death. "On the Bth of June the firing commenced on all sides as usual, and one lady and child, Christian, were seized and brought before the Nana. Afterwards, ac cording to order, they were killed, notwithstanding that they represented they were faultless, and if it would please the rebels they might Slake them Mussulmans, if they would but save their lives ; but to do so did not come into the hearts of their executioners ; and in the city and gardens there was so much villainy committed that travelling became dangerous, and to kill a man was quite easy, and each landowner entertained 50 or 100 followers, and committed deeds of oppression and plun• dered each other. Some forcibly cut the grain out of the fields, and others were occupied in picking up plundered property which had been thrown down, and hundreds of as many Sepoys as p l undered money from Rejpoots were posted on the roads, ro bbi ng th e travel lersth: ; infact ; Government treasury, or any other property belong ing to Government, were all themsel ves pl un d ere d b y t h e if f is property any Sepoy m a d e th e s li g h test objec he was at o nce cause d t o iection landowners to gi ; re andu up sit upon the bed of death, and nearly I,ooor. on some, and on others 500 r , were found folded in %heir waist bands, and in the city the goods and chattels and cash of the Engish merchants were plundered to the following extent :—Greenwity, 50 lacs ; Game, 10,000 r.; Crump, 5 lace ; Mackintosh, 1 lac ; Green way, 40,000 r.; Reed, 10,000 r.; Marshall, 4,000 r.; Rirke, 50,000 r.; and many gentlemen, merchants, escaped into the entrenched camp with their money, and many other merchants thought that the troops would not offer them any molestation, kr if the Government became Hindostanee they would open their shops and sell their property ; but the Sepoys did "From time to time I walked along the ramparts, talking to the Sepoys and encouraging them to hold out' I explained to many of them the high reward (viz., 6,000 rupees to each native officer, 300 rupees to each non commissioned officer, and 100 rupees to each Sepoy), that Capt. Lloyd, Superintendent of Neemuch, had guaranteed to every individual among them who assisted in protect ing the treasure and fort and that if they behaved well and remained 'true to their salt' the Government would certainly reward them handsomely. Several of the men assured me they would die rather than surrender ; others said, they would hold out against infantry and cavalry, but if artillery attacked them they should be obliged to give in. I toll them the artillery had nothing but grape. shot, and that could not possibly injure the fort or them either. It was a magnificent but lamentable sight that presented itself to our view as we stood for nearly three hours on the ramparts expecting an attack every mo ment. Upwards of 40 bungalows and innumerable hay stacks were blazing away before us, the flames shooting high up in the air, aril brightening the whale canton ment and fort, and throwing a lurid glare round the country for miles. As we stood watching the conligra. tion and the de3truction of our property, uncertain also as to the fate of our gallant friends in other regiments, oh I how we wished fora few hundred of our own island countrymen that we might have sallied out and inflicted on the traitors a jest and terrible retribution. "About a quarter to 3 a.m, four men of the Grenadier company came up to me and said, Doet 1r Sahib, it is no use holding out any longer; we are not now under the orders of the Major, we are commanded by Prithee Singh, Subadar of the Grenadier' company. If you don't believe us,' they continued, come and see for yourself.' I went with them to the left rear bastion, where I found a large body of the regiment (at least 150‘ and Pirthee Singh at their head. One of the Sepoys said to him, The Doctor Sahib has come.' H e h a d j us t then been addressing some of the men, and turning round to me said, You had better all leave the fort be fore it be too late.' Another Sepoy, standing close by, said aloud, We are now under Pirthee Singh's orders.' I went back to report the circumstance to Captain M'Donald, but meeting Lieut. Rose (second in command) I reported it to him. He said "it was a bad business, and he would go at once and tell M'Donald.' A few minutes after the Artillery commenced firing again, and hearing a row at the gate I hastened down, and found that the party under Lieuts. Gordon and Davenport had mutinied and were forcing their way through the gate. Capt. M'Donald, Lieuts. Rose, Gordon, Davenport, and allnd myself, with Sergeants Nesbitt and Lane, tried al we could to prevent their leaving, but to no purpose; roost of the men had their bayonets fixed, and presently the whole regiment, nearly 700 strong, left the ramparts an d bastions, fort. We ct a n dsl slowly ffi y o e bu e t r s w steadilywere k forced taenon their bythewayoutofthe tide, and got separated. Two Sepoys of the Grenadier Company who were with me all this time insisted on my going away before the cavalry came down upon us. They said, ' Your lives are safe among your own men, but we cannot answer for the Artillery and Cavalry,' Seeing it would be madness to remain any longer, I and Dr. Gane left them. I should here mention that Dr. Gane ' of the Bombay serv i ce, was with us all the even ing; be had only that day returned from Nusseerabad, where he had seen the station in a blaze, and had now, unfortunately, a secon d edition, attended with more se- " * - Names of those we met at Barra Sadree. rious consequences as far as he was personally concerned.

We have no ne ws f or some da U ys, b ba a t h so A far as l2 we know it really seems that things are looking up at last. Gen. Nicholson has taken down to Delhi a strong force —some 2,700 men—of whom 1,100 are Europeans, and people in camp are confident and again talk of taking the place wathoot waiting for reinforcements from below. "We have so often heard of the enemy being dispi. rited, deserting, &C., while notwithstanding they attack us (the besiegers) as constantly as ever, that these stories must be received with caution : but they are now so uniform and constant that I think there must be some thing in them, and that the mutineers are not so plucky and confident as before.

Ala‘ , ;s7 though we had not walked above 5 miles, yet the grona ''' being heavy we were quite tired and half dead with thirst. We knocked up one of the villagers, an old man, and asked him for some water. Ile immediately brought us to a well where there was a cistern quite fall, and we ' ee both sat down and had a regular libation. I verily believe our guide thought we would never leave off irinking. I gave him a rupee (2s ), which pleased him -.-, mightily, and asked him to show us the head man of the village. This he did at once. We found him in a small fort, surrounded by some halfalozen men. I told him we wished to rest there for an hour or so, and asked him if we could do so. He said, ' Most certainly,' and re. i °aired us with great civility, had a place cleared for u immediately in his own house, and begged we would make ourselves comfortable. He sent for milk, chu pates, dalli, rice, and mangoes, and entreated us to eat. After partaking of some refreshment we lay down and had a nap. We were not destined, however, to remain long at rest. About 9 a.m. a party of the let Light Cavalry, who were scouring the country, arrived at Kussaunda, and insisted on having ' the Sahibs out, in order that they might saf ruro them.' (' Polish them off, kill them.' Mar dalo Feringhee' (Kill the Europeans) was their cry.) Dr. Gene and I would have stood no chance against these scoundrels, and we were indebted for our lives to the noble conduct of the Rajpoots of the village—viz., Jadoo Ram, Oonkar Singh, Kesree Singh, Motbee. and several others, who swore they would stand by us to the last. They said, ' You have eaten with us and are our guests, and now if yon were our greatest enemy we would defend you.' They nut us in a small dilapidated shed on one of the bas tions, and when the troopers demanded us declared we were not there. After mach altercation the troopers threatened to attack the village if we wet() not given up. The Rajpoots warned them to be careful. They said, ' Kussaunda belongs to the Rana (the Rana of Odeypore). We are his subjects, and if you molest us [ i n n e a w i g l l r e s a end 10,000trage, threatening return .' with we nt away gunsia the evening and blow us to pieces. "About one o'clock we were agreeably surprised by seeing an artillery sergeant (Sergeant Supple, an active and gallant soldier) walk into our little fort ; we thought F at first he was being pursued by the Cavalry, but he in formed us that he was in search of the Brigade Major. He told us also that Captain Lloyd, Captain M`Donald, and several officers of the 7th Gwalior Contingent, were at the village of Darroo, only three miles off. This was good news. He said be would gallop off and bring us assistance, and soon we were glad to see him put his horse out at full speed and scour across the country in the direction of Darroo. Had I been alone, being a good horseman, 1 would have got up behind and galloped off with him, but as Dr. Gene was with me I preferred remaining behind and taking my chance with him. Dr. Gene unfortunately laboured under the twofold disad vantage—first, of not being able to ride ; and second, not understanding the language. " Hour after hour passed away, and no assistance arriving from Darroo, we began to think that our i friends there were in as great a fix as ourselves, and . such we afterwards discovered was really the case. " In consultation with our Rajpoot friends it was de cided that we should go on to Chute Sadree, a distance of about 16 miles, that same night. They were afraid that the Cavalry would be as good as their word, and return with the guns. Accordingly we left Kussaunda .horny after sunset, escorted by several Rajpoots, and arrived at Chute Sadree about 10 o'clock. Our route lay through a dense jungle, and being on foot (for my horse was stolen by the mutineer.) we were a good deal knocked up by the time we arrived there ; and to our disappointment we were told that all the Euro peans had left an hour before for Burra Sadree, 16 miles further on. Our reception was cold iu the extreme; they did not want us to remain there a moment and would scarcely give us even a drink of water. I sent two men to inform the Kutnashdar that we wanted to see him, but they came back saying it was toe late, he would not ace us, but advised us to hasten on after the other Sahibs. There were lots of horses and camels picketed about, a couple of which we scanted to hire, but they refused to let us have them, they said they wool i cell them to us but not hire them. Considering the state of our finances buying was of course out of the question. Nettling remained now but to quit this inhospitable place, and push on for Burra Sadree ; our escort from Kussaunda left us, and in their place we got two laheel guides ; so, after remaining about 20 minutes in Citota Sa free, we pushed on for the next stage ; in about an hour and a-half we reached a small village in the heart of the jungle, called 'Bheeliya Keagon.' Here we received very great kindness, the Bheels seemed to vie with each other in their hospitality ; they spoke to us of the benefits they received under British rule and abused the mutineers in no measured terms ; the women were thoroughly indignant, and expressed a hope that vengeance would speedily overtake the traitors. We remained with the Bheels about an hour, and having pro cured a coupled of ponies started for Burra Sadree, which place we reached about 9 o'clock next day, and were de. light©d to meet all our friends of the 7th Gwalior Contin gent, Ist Cavalry, and Artillery.* The fate of the officers and families of the 72d and Staff was still a mystery. We were three days afterward delighted to hear that Oey also had also escaped, toghether with Dr. and Mrs. Hockin, Captain and Mrs. Laurie, and Major Burt in's family. At Burra Sadree we parted with our Bbeel guides, to whom we gave a few rupees, and in place of the pony I was fortunate in getting the loan of a spare charger, and Dr. Gene succeeded in getting a gharry. Tne whole party started from Burnt Sadree about two p.m. and arrived at Doongla about 7 p.m. Here we re mained two days, when we were joined by Captain Showers, political agent of M-ywar, who hastened from o.leypore with a strong force of the Rana's choicest troops, and determined on giving chase to the mutineers at once. Leaving, therefore, a strong guard to escort the women and children and sick to Odeypore, Captain Showers, accompanied by Capt. Sir John Hill, Captain v li olu D n ° t r e ' e a r i s d, s L ta ie rt n e t ,i Enexliatem' oLreleinugtinßpaurnrseusita.nFdrionrCelhfoattes Sadree Cepa. lal 'Donald proceeded to Neemuch with a party of Bheels, and at Chittore we were joined by Lieut. Step eton, of the Ist Cavalry. Neenitich, in the mean time, had been reoccupied by Capt. Lloyd, superinten dent of the dAbeict.t " We pushed on rapidly, in the best possible spirits, at the rate of 30, 40, and even 50 miles a day, as far as Jehazghur (or Jehazpore), bordering on the territories of the Jeypore Rajah, where we hoped to fall with 200 of the 83d Regiment and some Horse Artillery (Europeans). To our disappointm twe found th e y cou ld not b e spared et from Nusseerabad. , were at this ti me w ithi n an easy 4 march of the mutin an d I fi rmly believe if we had had 200 of 83d and ew 9 pounders we s h ou ld h ave smashed them all to pieces, captured their guns, and scattered them all over the country. The fact was the mutineers rushed from Neemuch in the greatest haste possible, a report having got among them that the 'gore log' (Europeans.) were close at hand, and the appearance at this juncture of a very small European force would have accomplished their destruction. To our extreme mortification we had to return to Neemuch without have ing struck a single blow. " At Jehazghur we rescued 3 European women, 6 children, and 1 sergeant, Mrs. Reid and 2 children, Mrs. Coar and 4 children, Mrs. Roberts, and Sergeant M'Carthy, who were flying for their lives from Deolee, the head-quarters of the Kotah contingent, the station having been plundered and burnt by the Neemuch muti neers. Poor Mrs. Coar's husband has since been shot by a mutineer, and she, in common with hundreds of others, has been left perfectly destitute. " Numerous were the hairbreadth escapes at Neemuch, and, considering the character of the outbreak, it was providential that many lives were not lost. One Euro pean woman (the wife of the sergeant above alluded to), and 3 children were unfortunately butchered at the come rnencement of the mutiny. The sergeant was on duty over the guns, and it appears had no opportunity of de fending his family. Happily no other lives were lost. " The Mahomedans throughout were most cruel, fero cious, and bloodthirsty; those of the artillery and cavalry were the worst of the let. Excited with bhang or ' hemp' they galloped about like fiends, intent only on bloodshed and murder. "A Mahomedan Subadar of the 72d Native Infantry persuaded the colonel and officers of the regiment, with their families, to take shelter in his house ; they were no sooner in than be fastened the door upon them outside, and sent for the guns. Fortunately a Hindoo Sepoy who remained ' true to his salt' broke open the door, and warned the officers of their danger in time to enable them to escape. " The Quartermaster-Sergeant's wife of the 7th Gwalior Contingent was attacked by some Mahomedans, and would have been killed but for some Hindoo Sepoys who came to the rescue and escorted her in safety to a village some miles out of the station. She afterwards joined her husband, and proceeded with the rest of the party to Odeypore. "The conduct of the Odeypore Durbar at this crisis was beyond all praise. The entered heart and soul into our cause ; indeed, had it not Bane appears to have been for his loyalty to the British Goiernnaent and co-operation with the authorities there is no saying what might been the aspect of affairs in Rajpootana at th present moment."
