DESPATCHES FROM INDIA• (Prom the Gazette of this evening.) INDIA BOARD, Nov. 20. The following despatches have been received at the East India House, at various times, since October 13, 1857, and are now inserted in the London Gazette, in continuation of those published on that day : The Acting Adjutant-General of the Army to the Secre tary to the Government of India. Head-quarters, Camp before Delhi, July 6, 1857. Sir,—ln forwarding, for submission to the 'Governor- General in Council, the enclosed copy of a report from Major-General Sir H. Barnard, K.C.8., dated the 28th n it un o, relative to the attacks of the mutineers on the out posts of the force on the 23d idem, I am directed by the Provincial Commander-in-chief to add his testimony to that of Sir H. Barnard as to the persevering gallantry and endurance of the troops engaged, both European and Native, of which Major-General Reed was himself, for a portion of the day, a witness. 2. The endurance displayed by the troops throughout the whole day, under a scorching sun, and without food, the Provincial Commander-in-Chief considers to have been most praiseworthy, and well deserving the spacial com menlation the Government.--I have, &c., N. CHAMBERLAIN, Brigadier-General. Major-General Sir H. Barnard to the Adjutant-General of the Army. Camp, above Delhi, June 28,1857. Sir,—l have the honour to report, for the information of the Commander-in-Chief, that, on the 23d instant, the insurgents renewed their attack upon us ; and, owing to some religions feeling, kept it up during the whole day. Knowing they had come out of the town the day before, and had not been seen returning at night, I bacame anxious for the safety of a valuable convoy, which was to march into camp on the morning of the 23d, and sent a strong escort out to meet it. This was successful ; but the convoy had scarcely arrived in camp, ere my attention was called to the right or Hindoo Rao position, whera, during the whole of the rest of the day, the combat was main tained. The enemy basing lodged themselves in some loop-holed houses, and a semi and mosque, occasioned some loss ; and I regret to say Col. Welchman, of the Ist Bengal European Fusiliers, was severely wounded. The loss on the part of the rebels was very serious. I submit a casualty raturn.—l have, &c., A. W. BA.RNARD. Nominal roll of the officers killed and wounded : Lieut. Jackson, 2d European Bengal Fusiliers, killed. Colonel J. Welchman, Ist European Bengal Fusiliers, wonnded. Captain C. Jones, her Majesty's 60th Rifles, wounded, severely. Lieutenant Murray, Guide Corps, wounded. H. W. BARNARD, Major-Genera]. The Acting Adjutant-General of the Army to the Secretary to the Government of India. Head-Quarters, Camp before Delhi, July 9, 1857. Sir,—l have the honour, by direction of the Provincial Commander-in-Chief, to forward, for submission to the Governor-General in Council, copy of a report, dated the sth inst, from Brevet-Major J. Coke, Ist Puejanb Infan try, who was employed, on the 4th instant, in command of a detachment against a body of mutineers from Delhi.— I have, kc., N. CHAMBERLAIN, Brigadier-General. Brevet-Major Coke to Major Ewart. Camp before Delhi, July 5, 1837. Sir,—l have the honour to report, for the information of Major-General Sir H. Barnard, K.C.B , commanding the force before Delhi, that, in accordance with orders, the force as per margin, (2 guns sth Troop, Ist Brigade Horse Artillery; 4 guns 2d Troop, 3d Brigade Horse Artillery; 3 Companies 3d Bengal Artillery, and No. 14 Light Field Battery ; Squadron of her Majesty's 6th Dragoon Guards; Squadron of her Majesty's 9th Lancers ; the Guide Cavalry ; Head-Quarters Wing of her Majesty's 61st Re giment ; let Punjaub Infantry), marched at half-past two o'clock a.m. yesterday, to attack tho body of mutineers wh had left Delhi on the previous evening. On arriving at the junction of the roads from the city and cantonments, it seemed very doubtful whether the reb.ls would return by the right or left bank of toe Canal from Allipore; I therefore sent on Lieutenant Roberts by the main road to feel for the enemy, and Captain Hodson, of the Guides, to the tight bank of tie canal. I found the enemy were retiring by the Robtuck road to Delhi, but spread all over the country. On crossing the canal, a considerable body, with guns, were seen at a village about a mile from the bridge, when lat once proceeded to attack them. After a few rounds from their guns they carried them off in the direction of the city, before we could get up to them, which they were enabled to do, as they were on a road, whereas we had to advance over the open country, which was in many plaeus a swamp, through which our guns and troops could only ma';:a their way with much difficulty. A number of the enemy were killed who had thrown themselves into the village on our front ; the rest fled in evcry direction. The Cavalry of the Guides followed them with the greatest spirit, and succeeded in cutt'ng up some more of the enemy. It was useless to attempt any further pursuit, for the heat was great, and the European soldiers exhausted ; I flu refora returned to the banks of the canal, and allowed the men to rest under the shade of the trees. While I was bringing the Infantry back, the Artillery, by some misconception, returned to camp. During the time we were resting under the trees on the caws!, the enemy had collected their forces, and, coming up under cover of the canal, made an attack on the Infan try. We beat them back, and pursued them for a consi derable distance, but seeing there was a larger force col lecting behind them, I withdrew the Infantry, and took up a position that commanded the bridge, and, as I expected thi'y were bringing up guns, I soot into camp for artill -18/.7% Before the guns arrived, however, the enemy made a second attack, and were beaten back with considerable lose. Soon after, the artillery and cavalry came up, and followed the enemy, who again dispersed, and fled in all dir .cti I left the guns and cavalry at the canal bridge, and brought back the infantry to camp, where we arrived about 4 o'clock. There were about 100 of the enemy killed in these at tacks. I uclosed is a return of our loss, which was very small.

Heal-Quarters, Camp before Delhi, July 17, 1857. have the honour, by de.ira of the Provincial Commander-in-Chief, to inclose, for submission to the Governor-General in Council, copy of the Order issued this day by Major-General Reed, on quitting the Delhi fiell force. 2. I am further to inclose, for his Lordship's informa tion, a state of the force, dated the 16th inst.—l hc.ve, &c., H. W. NORMAN, Lieutenant. General Orders by Major-General Reed, Provincial Commander-in-Chief. Head-Quarters, Camp before Delhi, July 17 1857. Lieutenant-General Sir P. Grant, K.C.8., having in a General Order, dated the 17th June, at Calcutta, an Bounced his having assumed command of the Bengal army frona that date, Major• General Reed has ceased to exercise the duties of Provincial Commander-in-chief. Mlajor•General Reed having been recommended by his medical advisers to avail himself of a sick certificate to rep eir to the hills, as the only chance of recovering his shattered health, which has latterly prevented him from taking an active part in the field operation•, has made over the enmmand and charge of this force to Brigadier-General A. Wilson. It is with the greatest reluctance the Major-General has cone to the determination to take this step, but his duty to his country must he paramount to any selfish considera tion ; and being incapacitated himself for the post by disease and weakness, he has no alternative than to devolve his erduous duties upon another. Of Brigadier-General Wilson's merits it is unnecessary for lajor-General Reed to speak ; his judgment, gallantry anti conduct have been conspicuous since he led his small but victorious band from Meerut up to this day. It only remains for the Major-General ito congratulate the forces before Delhi on being placed under so able a conenander as Brigadier-General Wilson. 11. ejer-General Reed takes this opportunity of request in% head-inarters and divisional staff to accept his Als,__P:utt . ! o _ r the great assistance received by him and by his i n s Z,l .

In conclusion, the Major-General desires to express his thanks to the officers of his personal Staff for the uniform assistance he has received from them upon every occasion, and he only regrets he has not had more frequent oppor tunities of witnessing their distinguished conduct in the field; to Captains Lowe, Reed, and Turnbull, Aides-de- Camp ; to Assistant-Surgeon W.

THE DANUBIAN PRINCIPALITIES. A letter from Paris, dated Nov. 22, says :—The Divan of Wallachia unanimously adopted on the 19th the memorandum explanatory of the four re solutions of the Rouman people as agreed to on the 21st October last. The popular assemblies of those provinces seem to take as their model the French Constituent Assembly of 1789. This body, on the 17th of June, effaced the distinction between the three orders of the nation, and the States-General became a National Assembly ; the 23d of June was the term of the moral, and the 14th of July of the material, power of French Royalty ; and the 4th of August was the complement of the first Revolu tion. Moldavia has just had its 4th of August. In the sitting of the 9th, 10th, and 11th inst., the Divan ad hoe, on the question of the reforms to be introduced into the Principality, adopted unaui ineusly, and as the basis of tee new order of things, liberty in matters of religion, equality before the law, general partition of imposts, capacity of all citizens to fill offices of the State, separation of administrative from judicial functions, abolition of the privileges which constituted the ancient laws of the country, and, in a word, the application to Moldo-Wallachia of what are termed in France the principles of 1789. A few remarks on this point may not be out of place. They are intended to present some precise notions of the internal condition of Moldo-Wallachia to the present date, and to throw a little additional light on one important question on which a strong difference of opinion exists—namely, whether the Danubian Provinces contain, or not the elements of a free people. And, first of all, a few words on the history of the facts themselves. After the voting of the "four points" of the political programme, that is to say, union, self-government (auto no my), the sovereignty of a foreign Prince, and Constitutional government, one great difficulty presented itself— what, after all, was the duty of the Divan ? Con sidering their mission as terminated, should they have adjourned until such time as the Paris Con gress had pronounced its decision on these four points ? On the one hand common sense, on the other respect for the rights of the country, seemed to counsel such a line of conduct. Independently of the consideration that it was not regular to proceed to the discussion of organic laws before the Consti tution was adopted, the question of union or con tinued separation necessarily taking precedence of a'l others, it should not be forgotten that the Divans have, according to the Treaty of Paris, a consulting mission only., They consequently were bound, if they wished to maintain int ict the rights of the country as ratified by that instrument, to limit themselves strictly to the discussion of the political question, which, being part of the public law of Europe, is within the attribut s of the great Powers, without touching the domestic question, which belongs entirely to the governing authority, and is not subject to the control or intervention of those Powers, The acts of the Divans justify the observation of a high authority on such matters, namely that the General Assemblies of Moldo- Wallachia have not simply expressed their wants and wishes, but have enacted decrees. The European C.ammissioners, however, having urged the Divans to protract, irrespectively of the " four points," their deliberations on the divers topics relating to the reorganization of the provinces the Divan of Moldavia, out of deference to the Pow, rs, framed a list of demands, comprised in 12 -articles, to be appended to the " four points," but accompanied with the express declaration,-Ist, that these demands, submitted voluntarily and spontaneously to the Congress by theDi vans, should not be in any wise prejudicial to the aut noney or self-government of the Principality ; 2d, that in case the bases proposed by the Wallachian Divan were not identical, such eventual difference should not be used as an argument against the political union of the Principalities, which had been de manded by the unanimous vote of the represen tatives of both. Among the 12 articles alluded to there are several —such, for instance, as the organisation of the army with a - view to neutrality and to the combined defence of the territory of the Principalities (Att. 4) ; respect for the domiciles and personal liberty of th 9 citizens (Art. 8) ; separation of the executive and legislative powers (Art. 10) ; and responsibility of ministers (Art. 12)—which need no commentary, for they explain themselves. There ara others, however, which, to be understood, require some explanation ; and, as these explanations relate to ;he religious, political, and social organisation of the Rosman country, they may be given here. The provisions relating to religion are comprised in the sth and 6th Articles, which are worded thus : —Liberty of worship within the conditions of the stipulations with the Ottoman Porte. Establish ment of a Synodal authority concentrating in itself the direction of the spiritual affairs of the Roman Church. All forms of worship to be freely professed in Moldo-Wallachia—all, with the exception of the religion of their masters, or the pretended masters of the country—the Turks ! It is, in fact, declared in the 10th Article of the stipulations of 1460 that "no .Mussulman mosque shall ever be erected in any part of the Wallachian territory." Now, it this formal sdpulation be comp wed with the religious and political code of Islamism, in vir ue of which the erection of the mosque on the Dar-ul-harb (the territory of the infidel, in con tradistinction to the Dar-ul-Islam, the territory of Islamism) is regarded as the sign of conquest, how can the Turks pretend that they are the Sovereigns of the country ? That Sovereignty is, indeed, ex traordinary which refuses you the right to pray, to reside, or even to traverse freely your own States ! The declaration of the Moldavian Divan does more than merely record a pre-existing fact. By the establishment of a Synodal authority centralis ing the spiritual affairs of the Rounian Church it tends to place it iu a condition of complete indepen dence with regard to the great Church eaf Constan tioople, as has already bsen the case with the. Servian and Hellenic Churches. That independence, which has not occasioned a schism in Greek ortho doxy, is derived from it svery constitution. In truth, the various churches of the orthodoxcominunion, go verned by their respective Synods, are independent of and equal to each of her; each Preserves its tongue, its liturgy, and its discipline ; this dogma having been immutably fixed since the 4th Council of Corr staniieople iu 869. The Eastern Church has been administered after this manner to the present day in Turkey, in independent Greece, in the lonian Islands, in Russia, and in Austria, where the Ortho dox Serviena have an independent Patriarchate, of which the seat is Carlowitz. The unity of the orthodox communion is m iintained by the fraternal concord of these various Synods, and by their un varying difference towards the patriarchal church of Constantinople, the eldest sister of all, and the first in rank. This fundamental principle of orthodoxy, which assimilates it in some measure to Protes t tutism, is one of the causes to which may be attri buted the little progress of Rome is the East. The Roman Church tends to absorb nationalities, whereas the other not only contributes to their con servation, but even to their developni.ent. In Tur key the Catholic Armenians are hardly, if at all, regarded as Armenians. Up to the present time the Rouman Church, though independent of Constantinople, for the Me tropolitans of Bucharest and Jas•iy, as well as their Suffragans, are named directly by the ordinary Assemblies of the two Provinces,•without the inter vention of the Pat t larch, to whom they merely pay a sum of 3,000 duc its on their being enthroned, has not been c .insiderecl as forming a distinct Church, in asmuch as the Principalities thenaselve, being 'reckoned among the provinces of the Ottoman Em pire, did no:. fo:m a distinct State. If the union of the Principalities take place in conformity with the basis of the "four poiries," it is evident that the complete emancipation of the Church will follow that of the State,. One is the necessary consequence of the other. While on this point I may notice what has ofcen been said respect: ng the identity of reliziousdoct. ine giving to the Russians a power in the Principalities against which no other influence has a chance of ever prevailing: That statement is exaggerated. The Moldo-Wallachians, far from looking upon the Russ aus as their co-religionists, consider them as schismatics. They refuse to frequent their places of worship ; and, though there is a chapel in Paris for the use of the Russian Knba.ssy and of Rus sian subjects, the 'Rouinans who reside in this capial have built a chapel where they practise their own rite, awl where the Archimandrite, the Rev. Jo3aphat Inagoveaio, has regularly officiated since its foundation. The grounds on which the Ron mans found their dissent frofri the Muscovite Church were clearly exp!ained by the Archiman dr;te in an address delivered on the open ng of the church in 1854. With this ha.ty sketch I leave the Danubian Prot in - ms f. r the present, and turn to another ciunt'y, whe-e free institutions a 6, aft..ir years of trial, still struggling to in tintain their ground. From the Danube to the Ebro, the distanrl is not so gi e al people may suppose. If the English and Fre ich Governments d'ffer about Mo?d W,l_ they • per!'e:itly agree on all the affairs of Spain, present and contingent. Lord Howden is ab lit to i eturn to Madrid. His Lordship has been detain ,d hero some time by the Mexic an question, which still presents some difficulty, and even clanger; if left unsettled. It is unjerstood that Lord Howden is charged to show the Spanish Government the expediency of receiving M. Lafra ua (the Mexican Envoy), and thus allowing the mediation of England and France to proceed with out delay, as, beyond all doubt, there is a numer ous party on the borders of the United States and Mexico only waiting for au opportunity to envenom the quarr.l, iu order to turn it to their owu advan tap. While the British Minister at the Court of Madrid has instructions to this effect, the French Minister in Mexico will receive others to endeavour to persuade that Government to withdraw its pre tension of having M. Lafragua received at Madrid as an indispensable preliminary. It is hoped that this double action of Lord Howden at Madrid, and M. de Gabriac in Mexico, will prevent an ex plosion which will most certainly inflict much damage on all concerned, if the Governments of Spain and Mexico continue in their present ob-, stinacy, and allow so much danger to both to follow from a question of vanity and a point of etiquette. INDIAN MUTINIES. THE FALL OF DELHI. The following is from an engineer officer engaged in the siege : " Delhi, Sept. 28. " You will see by the date of my letter that the task in which we have been so long engaged is at last accomplished. Delhi was assaulted and a por tion of the city captured on Sept. 14. Our progress from this date was slow till the 20th, when the city was evacuated by the mutineers, and we found our selves in possession of the whole. Thus ended what I suppose future generations will consider one of the most extraordinary sieges in history: You will by the time this reaches you have learnt some thing more of the actual difficulties that we have hael to contend against than our last English letters show ; but you cannot have the same notion of the wonderful way in which our small force has been protected by Providence as we who have been par ticipators in all that has passed. You will hear a great deal, but there are small details which strike us so forcibly at the tirae of the occurrence, and these are so innumerable that the most careful nar rator will fail to tell all. There are so many cala mities have befallen us since May 10th that one felt tempted to look upon as irretrievable at the time, and which so short a time has sufficed to point out as the only remedies against evils of far greater magnitude. So often has our position seemed perfectly hopeless, and so wonderful have been our deliverances, that I cannot conceive the most scep tical man denying events to have been brought about by a power far above human. I will only attempt to point out to you some of the most convincing proofs of what I assett :—Firstly, when the mutiny broke out, see how Gen. Hewitt was blamed for his inactivity. The outcry was natural, and no one can deny that he was the most incompetent man that could have filled such a post. But let us for an instant suppose that some more able man had commanded at Meerut, and even that the mutiny had at its first outbreak at Meerut been quelled. Sub equent events and dis closures have only proved to us that the outbreak has been premature, and that had it been over- COMO at the time it would probably have come upon us at the appointed day with a force that none of us could have hoped to withstand. Secondly, let us take the fact that the mutineers on the 10th of May found the Watergate (to the south of the palace) open, when all others had been shut against them. I have heard many deplore this fact • but let us suppose it otherwise. Let us suppose that all the gates in the city had been closed, and that all ingress had been impracticable. The results, I think, must have been far more lament tble even than they were. The mutineers (I think without a doubt) would not have spent much time in fruitless ende avours to enter the city, but have rushed straight up to the cantonments, where they would have been joined by the Native Infantry regiments there quartered. Tne surprise would have been most complete, and under the circumstances few indeed, if any, of us could have escaped from cantonments, and with the prospect of the immense plunder in the city I do not think they would have wasted much time in effecting an entrance, which would then have been most easy, and how would it have fared with those in the city ? Thirdly, we have always lamented the delay in the assistance of the European force from Bengal reaching us. The event has shown how far more necessary these same Europeans were down-country even than up here. Fourthly, we have three times (previously b the 14th Sept.) been on the point of assaulting Delhi. This was very shortly after our first arrival here on June 8. On one occasion (June 12)wo had even sent out the advance column. I was the senior engineer with the column, and virtually had the command of it. My instructions were to advance through a por tion of the suburbs of Delhi (Kishengurage, Pabari pore, and those villages to the right of our position on re ridge) in close column, and when within 400 yards of the city walls to extend to the right and left in skirmishing order. The suburbs that I allude to, I must telt you, are chiefly com posed of loopholed enclosures and serail which you would think had been built expressly for defensive purposes. The streets are very narrow, and the dis tance that we had to traverse, to reach within 400 yards of the wall, something beyond a mile. Had this position been occupied only by the merest hand ful of the enemy (and there was nothing to prevent its being so without our knowledge), we could cer tainly never have forced our way through it, and had the merest handful of the enemy only let us pdss through to the extreme end of the suburbs and then attacked us and cut off our retreat, I really teink that hardly a man of us would have escaped to tell the tale. As it turned out, just as I was on the point of throwing out the skirmishers, an aide de camp Lode up to tell us were unsupported, and must make the best of our way back. Most provi dentially the enemy seemed to be in perfect igno rance of our movements, for not a shot was fired at us till we had almost reached camp again, and were vary nearly out of range of the round shot from the city walls. On reaching the camp we learned that the project had miscarried, owing to a misconcep tion of orders of Brigadier Graves, in command of the second column. Loud were the abuses heaped on this unfortunate man, who seemed (and, perhaps deservedly so) the butt of everybody's censure. Of course, everybody attributed to him the loss of such a seemingly good opportunity of taking the city. I think few would venture to say so now. IViy own (and I think the general) conviction is that our force, so contemptibly small as it then was, would have been completely lost in such an immense city, and, unless the enemy had been most completely panic-stricken, would have had little chance of holding any temporary advantage that we might have gained in the first rush. I could enumerate instances of the same kindjwithont number, but it would try 3 our patience. I think few can ponder on all that has happened and imagine that our work in India is done, and that Providence has altogether forsaken us. " We opened our trenches on the 7th Sept., and the way in which we accomplished this was one of the most wonderful parts of the siege. Our attack was divided into two—the right and left. The right was directed against the Moree Bastion, and the Litt (to which I was attached) was directed against the portion of 'he walls netr the Cashmere-gate and church. If you can recollect the ground at all you will remember that opposite Ludlow Castle, where Mr. S. Frazer liveJ, towards the river it was occu pied by gardens. The distance between this posi tion and tee city is very small, within easy range of grape shot from No. 2 Bastion, against which the thick brushwood was no protection. Breaking" ground so c'ose to the walls was a b dd manoeuvre, which few circumstances would justify, and one which we fully expec ed would co et us many lives. Judge, then, of our surpr S 3 to find so trcely any notice whatever taken of our proceedings. It is the more remarkable, as there seemed to be no attempt at secrecy on our part, and we could hear the enemy's sentrit son the ramparts. Our working party w a an excessively large one, and hal the enemy taken canneoa precautions, for they could not have been ignorant of our presence, they must have hitt c ted. very heavy losses , if they had not entire'y stopped. our works. Vigilant,. however, as we have always fiund teem , this first night God seemed to have blinded their eyes to all verse of danger ; for, with the exception of one shower of grape and two or three round shot directed at us, which injured no oae, they fired away at our bat teries ou the right as usual. In the morning they acted very differently, for they commenced, and through the day kept up, a very hot ,fire ; too late, however, for we had managed to obtain pretty t ood shelter by that time, and our first battery on the right was not only finished, but armed and hard at work breaching. You would think that af.er the experience of our first night they would have al lowed us little pence in breaking fresh ground nearer the wall ; however, even then there was not very much fire, and it was only on the third night that they s clued to awake to a sense of their danger ; and from th it time they kept up a pretty steady tire of all sorts, including musketry, and we certainly list come men. You may fancythat the engineers h td little fine to them selves. I wts not in bed for four nights, and, as you may imagine, pretty well done up. There was only one battery (only 150 or 200 yards from the walls) to be finished, and it was the excitement alone that kept us awake. I had a party of her Majesty's Gist and Bth It-giments under me filling sandbag?. The fire was very hot, and I was anxions to get my men under cover in soma pity, where the eerth was softer to dig. I was I,admg them to the pit, wl en, the night being d , trk , fellinto one that I htd not seen, and sprained my leg and ankle so ,everely that I was obliged to be taken to camp in a dboolite There I lay du my beck HI the day of the assault. I don't think that anybedy in camp kne x fur certain the time of the assault till withi n two hours of the time. I was in my tent, away frour the mess, and therefore had no opportunity of hearing anything about it till the rattle of musketry told me that something was doing. Of course, stopping in bed was out of the question, and as my CAVALRY DEPOT. Paymaster John Stephenson, from the 17th Light Dragoons, to be Paymaster. BREVET.

At the Aylesbury County Court, on Friday last, an important case was heard, and the facts involved the point whether the owners of bulls are per mitted to turn them out without taking proper care that they could not break through the fences and herd with other graziers' stock. The plaintiff was Mr. Senior, of Broughton-hall, near Aylesbury, a magistrate for the county, and a well-known gra zier ; the defendant being Mr. Self, the manager of the Londoa and County Bank at Aylesbury. The action was brought to recover the sum of 191. 195., for damages from the negligence of the defendant. It was alleged that the plaintifi had at great trouble secured a pure breed of Devons, which were depas turing in a field adjoining Mr. Self's grounds, in which was a bull, which trespasso I on the plaintiff's grounds, and associated with his stock—in cense qu , nce of which the plaintiff said a most valuable heifer, the produce of the bull which had won the prize at Norwick, and had never been beaten, and a cow which he had bought of Lord Macclesfield, was in calf. He (plaintiff) said it was important that his stock should remain pure. He said he was offered 30 guineas for the produce of the heifer which was the cause of the action ; but, owing to Mr. Self's hull having committed the trespass, he sold the he for and calf (which ought to have been worth 401.) for 171. 10s. The witnesses stated that Mr. Self's fences were very bad. Mr. G. L. Brown, barrister, for the defence, contended that the case had nothing to de with the breeding of cattle, but was merely a little bit of private quarrel ling. It was said that there was an assumed likeness between the calf and its suspected sire ; but there was no daguerreotype, and of course no likeness could be proved. He contended, therefore, that there was no proof that the plaintiff had sustained damage at the defendant's h Ands. He called upon the jury to give the plaintiff the smallest conceiv able coin in full satisfaction for any conceivable in jury he had sustained. Various witnesse, includ ing Mr. Gadsden, the extensive auctioneer and valuer, and Mr. H. Phillips, the well-known dealer of Thame, were called on the part of the defendant, and they swore that there was nothing extraordi nary in the breed of the plaintiff's stork, and that the heit r and calf were not worth more than 171. or 181. Other witnesses swore (in opposition to what had been urged on the part of the plaintiff) that the defendant's fences were in. goo I condition. His Honour, Mr. C. Temple, summed up at great length. The jury retired, and after being absent about half an hour, found a verdict for the plain tiff—damages is. Immediately the verdict was announced, the court, which was densely crowded throughout the whole five hours the case lasted, rang with a shout the like of which had never, perhaps, been uttered there on any such occasion. It was, however, of coursg, suppresed by the offi cers and the judge. MT • Country Markets. CHELMSFORD—Nov. 20.

I had my doubts about my new charger, a very pretty little toast, and per fect in every respect except courage, being one of the most determined shyers that I have ever seen. However, I had no choice for it, so I mounted, and in due course of time I found myself at the Cash mere-gate. Our columns had entered, and one had even penetrated as far as the Bank, but being un able to withstand the murderous fire was compelled to retreat. It was with the greatest difficulty that I could keep my seat, for on reaching the branch roads outside the Cashmere-gate the bullets and shot of all descriptions were flying about like hail, and one which struck close to the hoofs of my pony - frightened him so that he became quite unmanage able. However, I got him through the gate, and a fearful sight it was that met my eyes. " Aportion of our troops had esc aladedthebastion. walls close to the gate; others had scrambled up two large breaches in the walls and bastion near Treasury. The remainder had entered at the gate itself, which had been blown open by one of our officers. The latter was really the hazardous duty of the day, and was most gallantly performed, though in broad daylight. The explosion party consisted of Lieuts. Home and Salkeld of our corps, a few sappers and a bugler of H.M.'s 52d. On their nearing the gate they found it slightly open, with a number of mus kets protruding at the opening. They were received with a volley, which killed and wounded a number. Still, however, they advanced, and fixed their powder bags on to the gate. Sergeant Carmichael, of the Sappers, tried to light the port-fire attached to the bags, but was shot dead in the attempt. After him Sergeant Burness, of the Sappers, tried, but fell, pierced with three bullets. After Sergeant Burners, Salkeld tried, but fell into the ditch, shot in the leg, which is broken, and in the arm, which has been amputated. Sergeant Smith, of the Sap pers, tried next, and he and Home between them happily succeeded without a wound. Seeing the portfire well a-light the whole party jumped into the ditch, and the enemy, little dreaming of what had been done, continued firing till the explosion took place, so you may fancy what effect it took. 20 of the mutineers strewed the road inside the - gate, not one of whom would it have been possible to recognise, and this was the first sight that met my eyes at the gate. Little wonder that Donald re fused to move ; however, finally he did, and got as . far as the centre of the main guard, beyond which nothing would urge him. It was perfect agony keeping my seat, and I would have given worlds to . dismount—but walking was out of the question,* it was anything but an agt eeable fix to be in. I felt how perfectly useless I was, and being the only mounted man theta in the open space, fully accounted for the number of bullets whistling past my ears. There was no help for it, so I had to make my way back to camp as I beat could, fully convinced of my own folly. You may imagine I ha I done neither leg nor ankle much good by the trip, and I had not many oppor tunities of seeing the remainder of the operations. We progressed slowly after this for two days, , but having obtained possession of the magazine con taining about 130 guns there could no longer be much doubt as to the result. The enemy, who had hitherto so stoutly resisted us, was losing heart, though he bad succeeded in beating us back with loss and kept us at bay at two or three points. Daily and nightly large numbers continued to leave the city till the 20th, when we found ourselves in perfect possession, and the entire city evacuated. Immediately on receiving news of the evacuation I started fur the palace. You can have no conception of the scene of confusion—Riflemen, Goorkhas, . Sikhs, and Punjabees quarrelling over their plunder —and such plunder to quarrel about ! Old counter panes, dirty blankets, tin and copper pots and pans, sepoys' red coats, baskets, papers, packets of tinsel, bottles of rose water and otto of roses lying here, there, and everywhere, and the whole place in a state of squalor and wretchedness passing all de• scripiion. On turning into the gardens in front of Douglas's stables I found myself alone. I cannot tell you what a scene of desolation presented itself to my eyes. The garden had been an encamping ground of the sepoys, and everything bore witness to its having been deserted in hot haste. The.tents were still standing, but it seemed as if everybody had taken his armful out of the boxes, and without caring for what might drop, had made the best of his way out of the place. The stillness, too, after the noise and riot I bad just quitted, was really appal ling, and I stood at the foot of the stairs stupefied as with a heated atmosphere and unable to move. I was roused by hearing three cheers from the apart meni s above me. . . . We have captured the King, his two sons and grandson—the three last (among whom was Mirza Mogul Bay) were most deservedly shot before they ware brought into the city, where their badie3 were exposed in the Chandney Chouk." The following letter has been addressed to the Editor of the Times:— " Sir,—l send you a copy of an extract of a re- ) port, dated September 17, from Colonel Baird _ Smith to Major-General Wilson, which has,- not yet, I believe, appeared in any of the papers, and its publication will be not on l y most gratifying to the parents and friends of the g allant men mentioned therein, but will bring to the notice of the public the real facts of that desperate duty of blowing up the Cashuaere-ga'e. You have already prominently mentioned Lieu'. Salkeld's name, and 1 am sure Lieut` Home's gal lant and cool conduct on tthat memorable event equally deserves the encomiums of his countrymen; indeed, all of that party proved and showed them selves noble and gallant fellows. But Lieutenant. Home's name appears evidently to have been in advertently omitted in the Brigad'ef's report ; hew" , ever, Col. B. Smith on questioning one of the Bur vivori learnt that Lieut. Home was of the part - Y, whereupon Col. B. Smith ordered Lieut.-Home tO make a report on the subject, when, of course, the whole came out ; and the following is.a copy of the 13th paragraph of the Chief Engineer's rer rt ' which will speak for itself how ably and efficien'll that duty was performed by Lieut. Home and Sal keld's party on the 14th of S.pt. last : " Par. 13. The ga'lantry with which the explosion party, under Lieuts. Home and Salkeld, performed the desperate duty of blowing up the Cashmere -gate , in broad daylight, will, I feel sure, be held to justify 11 1 ° in making special mention of it. The party was compe seu/ in addition to the two officers named, of the followi n g —Sergeants J; Smith and A. B. Carmichael, and Cor poral Burgess, Sappers and Miners ; Bugler Hawtho rne ! her Majesty's 52d, 14 native sappers and m i n ers, 14 / Punjab ditto, musters covered by the fire of her Ma jesty's 60th Rifles. The party advanced at the do uble towards the Cashmere-gate. Lieut. Home, with Ser geants Smith and Carmichael, and Havildar Mahor, all the sappers leading and . carrying the powder bags, f,°l - by Lieutenant Salkeld, Corporal Burgess, an d s portion of the remainder of the party. The advan ced b party reached the • gateway unhurt; and found that part of the drawbridge had been destroyed ; but passing across the precarious footway suPPl ie powder bags against the gate. The wicket was open, sod by the remaining beam., they proceeded to lodge their, powder bags against the gate. The wicket was open, a nd through it the enemy kept up a heavy . fire nPe n them. Sergeant Carmichael was killed while by ing hit powder bag, Havildar Mahor being at the same time wounded. The powder being laid, the advanced party slipped down into, the ditch to allow the firing party, under Lieut. Salkeld, to perform its duty. While eadeavoutiug to fire the &Jorge Lieut. Salkeld was shot through the arm and leg, and handed over the slow match to Corporal Bur gess, just as ho ha - l' successfully accomplished the onerous duty. Havildar With Sing, of the Sikhs, was wounded, and Ramloll Sepoy of the same corps was killed during this part of the operation. The demolition being most succe=sful, Lieut. Home, happily not iir.uude.l, caused the bugler to sound the regimental call of the 52d, as the signal for the advancing columns. Fearing that amid the noise of the assault the .sounds might not be heard, he had the call repeated three times, when the troops ad vanced and carried the gateway w:th complete sue' ces. I feel certain that a simple statement of this devoted and glorious deed will suffice to stamp it as one of the noblest on record in military history. The perfect success contributed most materially to the brilliant result of the day, and Deutenante Home and Salkeld, with their gallant subordinate Europeans and natives, wdl, 1 doubt not, receive the rewards which valour before the enemy SO dig" tinguiithed as theirs has entitled them to. .
