It was anticipated that there would be 11,000 trustworthy men before Delhi by the 15th of August, three:days from the date of our last ad vices, and that the grand attack would be hazarded about the 20th August, so that we may learn the result by the next mail. We must not, however, feel any undue impatience for the downfall of the Rebel City. At present it renders valuable ser vice by attracting the great majority of the muti neers, and enabling them to be crushed almost at a single blow, whenever that blow can be properly aimed against them. At Agra all was well in the Fort on the 11th August, and there were abundance of provisions. Relief was of course anxiously looked for where there was so large a proportion of non-comba tants, but we hope and believe that there is but little danger of our women and children encountering a fate similar to that of the refugees at Cawnpore. There is but little to be dreaded while our men can fight, and famine does not assist the efforts of the rebels. That is our chief, our only dread for Lucknow and Agra. If provi sions hold out we have but slight apprehensions of the prowess of the besieging miscreants, al though numbering 50 to 1. • There has been some slight disaffection mani fested by a few soldiers of the Bombay Army, not, however, sufficient to induce us to doubt the fidelity of the general army. The Mohurrum has passed over quietly in that Presidency and in Bengal : so far as advices have been received many execu tions had taken place for treasonable practices. The utmost vigilance and severity were rendered necessary by the circumstances of the country, and the many conspiracies in operation. The formation of the Naval Brigade, under Captain PEEL, R.N., to proceed so far inland, was a valuable experiment, from which we augur important results. A similar body earned for themselves before Sebastopol the thanks and gra titude of their countrymen. They were then, however, near their ships ; now they are to go many hundreds of miles inland. We have no doubt, however, that they will sustain the honour and furnish new and irresistible proofs of the efficiency of British seamen. LATEST NEWS THE MUTINIES IN INDIA. OFFICIAL DESPATCHES. The following telegram was received at the Foreign Office from the British Vice-Consul at Trieste, Sept. 29, 2.10 a.m. From Calcutta, Aug. 23, 1857. From G. F. Edmonstone, Esq., Secretary to the Government of India to the Hon. Secret Com mittee. Wednesday, the 7th of October, has been fixed as a day of national fast and. humiliation. We may well humble ourselves for the disasters that have occurred, but we may be permitted to doubt if a lessening of our resources is the way to repair the evil. There has been gross mismanagement —great mittakes have been perpetrated—and the people are therefore to lose a day's work when they will have extra demands to meet. Lord PALMERSTON some years since obtained well merited praise for the judicious answer he returned to the demand of ceitain Scotch Ministers who me morialised the Government for a similar fast. He showed them that it was more fitting to adopt proper means to prevent disasters than to mourn over what was inevitable ; and yet the same Lord PALMERSTON, who ought to be the general director and manager, seems to have altered all his pre vious views, and to have entered on the course which he previously deprecated. It is true that he was not present at the Privy Council at which the proclamation was resolved on. Another influence might have prevailed, overruling his judgment, and deciding in opposition to the nominal head of the Government. But he is the person responsible to the people, and he has to answer for the "loss of a day"—a serious matter when wages are to be deducted, and the scanty resources of humble householders diminished by the one-sixth of the earnings, or sixteen and two-thirds per cent. of the available week's income. It was supposed that a Sunday would have been selected, chiefly because no loss would have been thereby sustained, and also because there would not have been so great temptation to change the fast into a feast, to indulge in amusement rather than sorrow. Men will not, cannot be made religious by Acts of Parliament or Royal Procla mations. It must be their own natural impulses on which they act, and they will feel more dis posed to resent than to obey the direction. Those who cannot afford the loss of a day's wages will not accept the order in a very amiable spirit. Far better would it have been to devote the day's earnings to the relief of the Indian widows and orphans, to have applied the money, now irre vocably sacrificed, to feeding the hungry, and clothing the naked, to succouring the sick and needy, or rendering assistance to all who are in any way afflicted in mind, body, or estate. The Mawworm faction has, however, triumphed for the time, and we may possibly ascribe the result We have many telegrams relating to the state of affairs in India. They are, indeed, deeply in teresting, coming simultaneously from Calcutta and Bombay, and being far more copious than those usually given. The remonstrances of the ss have thus proved beneficial, and we may look forward to further improvement. The first name on every lip will be that of HAVE- Locx—the first thought of every heart, that respect ing the proceedings of his " handful of heroes." It was known by the last mail that after a succession of triumphs he had been compelled to retrace his footsteps, in order to leave his sick and wounded in a safe position, where they could obtain the as sistance so urgently required, and where the cap tured guns which could not be rendered avail able, might be secured against any probable con tingency. He did not long remain in the enjoy ment of the ease so nobly earned, and so much required. Although his force had been " reduced by exposure, fatigue, sickness, and constant fight l'ag," he only rested a few days. He again started on the 4th of August, despite the over whelming odds he was compelled to encounter, en, route for Lucknow. Two battles were fought, in both of which he was suc cessful, capturing the guns of the rebels. Bithoor had been reoccupied by 4,000 men and five pieces of cannon ; and though his re turn to Cawnpore was only on the 13th August, be had again routed the mutineers and taken the stronghold, which, as the residence of the mis creant, NANA SAHIB, is greatly thought of by friends and foes, on the 16th. He was, however, Compelled to await adequate reinforcements before he could attempt to relieve Luck - now, which wa still placed in jeopardy, and where the gallant - BANKS had shared the fate of his distinguished leader—Sir H. LAWRENCE. To move onwards, Under existing circumstances, would be an act of nn/pable folly, almost of insanity—leading to the 'certain annihilation of his followers, who bad been reduced to 900 in the formidable trial; they had encountered. It is feared that he could not receive the indispensable reinforcements be fore a fortnight from the date of the last espatches. The fate of Lucknow must be am t ter of the deepest solicitude during the interval. The great, indced almost the only danger was th e failure of provisions, which were not sufficient for that sought r e f uge i n the the numerov.s fugitives citadel. to the absence of Lord PALMERSTON from the court circle. The resolution was adopted in the north of Scotland, not in the neighbourhood of the metropolis of the United Kingdom. Had the Premier been present we believe it would have been very different. The members of the Council in attendance were the PRINCE CONSORT, Earl GRANTILLE, and Lord STANLEY Of ALDERLEY. They are alone entitled to credit (!) or censure. It is, however, strange that members of the Cabi net of which Lord PALMERSTON is the head should take a step so diametrically opposed to tho pub lished views and opinions of their leader. COURT CIRCULAR. Notl'iing certain is said of the reported suicide o f IiANA SAHIB. It is incidentally mention e d tb'At the assailants of Lucknow are under his coal .Mand, and it is therefore possible that a fictitious rumour obtained currency, and that the atrocious miscreant was stilll "cumbering the earth" at the time of the last advices. BALMORAL, SEPT. 27. Her Majesty the Queen, accompanied by their Royal Highnesses the Princess Helena and Prince Arthur, and attended by Lady Churchill, drove out yesterday af- ternoon. The Prince Consort, accompanied by Prince Alfred, went out deer stalking. Earl Granville has left Balmoral. Despatches were rcceived at the Colonial-office yes. terday from the Governor of Bermuda. At Delhi matters remain/in state quo, but there was every reason to hope that a fow days would greatly alter the stat'e of affairs. General Nicuorsorr had actually arrived on the 12th of Aurgust at the British Camp, and his troops were expected on the following day. Several sorties have been made by the rebels, but in every instance our brethren have vindicated the honour The official journal of Berlin announces that Prince Frederick William of Prussia had left for Weimar. The Due de Grammont left Turin on the 25th for Paris. The experimental squadron of Admiral Trehouart arrived on the 24th at Mahon from Barcelona. Its officers were most cordially received by the population. The Swiss journals state that the Swiss legation at Paris, by order of the Federal Government, recently asked the French Government if Swiss officers would be allowed to attend the camp at Chalons ; and the Minister of War replied that though no official reception would be given to any foreign officers at the camp, all who might go wonl I be certain of being well receive 1, and of having every facility afforded them of witnessing the " The relations between Switzerland and the Grand Duchy of Baden," says a letter from Berne, " are becoming every day more friendly, and it is permitted to hope that the animosity which arose from the insur rection of 1848—when the Confederation gave an asylum to numerous refugees from Baden, and even to a battalion nearly complete of the Body Guard of the Grand Duke—will soon have ceased.

SURREY THEATRE. An adaptation from the French drama of " Catherine Howard" was produced at this theatre last evening under the title of "-Ambition; or, the Throne and the Tomb." The drama is one of painful interest, the most effective portion being the last two'acts, when the ven geance of the wronged husband, Ethelwood, is attaining it 3 terrible climax. The two principal parts were ade quately sustained by Miss Eburne and Mr, Creswick, the tatter of whom played with great power, and elicited lavish applause. King Henry was well personated by Mr. Potter. These performers received the honour o' a call on the falling of the curtain. The raise en scene of the piece is excellent, and the lovers of the deeply tragic will derive much enjoyment from witnessing this new production. MISCELLANEOUS. lord Clarendon's message, dated. 13th July, to Consul at Marseilles, and Sir C. Wood's, dated 14th, to Consul at Cagliari, received. Upward of four hundred seamen and marines and twenty officers of Her Majesty's frigates Shannon and Pearl, have been formed into a Naval Brigade, and detached to the Upper Pro vinces. The brigade is furnished with ten 68- pounders, and two or three field pieces, taken from the above vessels. All left Calcutta on the 18th instant by steamer. All quiet at Nagpore and Hyderabad. By latest accounts the Punjaub quite tranquil. The 14th Native Infantry at Helym, who refused to give up their arms, destroyed. The 46th Native Infantry and wing of 9th Cavalry mutinied at Sealkote, and killed three or four officers, the ma jority finding shelter in the fort. The mutineers were attacked by Brigadier Nicholson on the 12th, and again on the 16th, and hardly any escaped. Their spoil fell into our hands. The revenue in the Punjaub has been paid to the last farthing, and the most loyal spirit pre vails not only among the Sikh soldiery, but the population generally. The only apprehension is a failure of funds. At the end of September or October, the Government will give its attention to this ; meanwhile the local authorities have invited advances on loan for one year at 6 per cent.,—result not yet reported. G. F. EDMONSTONE, Secretary to the Government of India, RAVEN. Trieste, 11'40, a.m., Monday. The following Telegram was received at the Fo reign Office, from the British Vice-Consul at Trieste, September, 29, 2.45 a.m. DELHI. The mutineers made great preparations for an attack on the 31st of July, the eve of the Bukree ied festival, but nothing occurred beyond some desultory skirmishing. On the evening of August Ist they attacked the right of the British position, and maintained the contest through the night, and up to the afternoon of August 2d. Our loss was very slight-10 killed, and 3G wounded—the men being kept well under cover. C Apt. Fravers, 32d N. 1., serving with Lokos Rifles, was killed. On the 6th of August, the enemy's cavalry, supported by artillery, attacked the Metcalfe House picket, but not in any force. Lieutenant Brown, 33d N 1., attached to the Kumaon bat talion, was killed ; Lieut. Venion, artillery, and Lieut. Temple, Kumaon battalion, wounded. Oa 7th August, skirmishing, with cannonades at intervals. A powder magazine of the enemy exploded this day, with a loss, it is rumoured, of 500 lives. On the Bth of August, a battery, constructed.by the mutineers to enfilade our guns, was destroyed. Skirmishing was kept up for during that and the next three days. Our troops suffered very little. On the 12th, guns established outside Cash mere Gate were attacked by a force under Briga dier Showers, and, after a sharp contest, taken. They consisted of one 24 pounder howitzer ; two 7 and one 6-pounder. Our loss was severe, 112 killed and wounded : among the wounded were the following officers :—Lieut. Sheradff, 2d Fusi liers, ,dangerously ; Brigadier Showers, Major Coke, severely ; Lieut. Lindsay, Horse Artillery ; Lieut. Mansell, Engineers ; Captaiu Greville, Ist Fusiliers; Lieut. Owen, Ist Fusiliers ;Lieutenant Jones, 70th N. 1., slightly. Brigadier-General Nicholson arrived in camp on the Bth of August iu advance of his force.' His troops were expected on the 13th and all would arrive by the 15th, on which date the army be 4 fore Delhi would number about 11,000 men. Further reinforcements, it was computed, would, early in September,.increase our numbers to 15,000 men. It is generally expected that the assault on the city will take place on the 20th of August. The King is reported to be sending his Zenana (his harem) to Rhotuck. AGRA. All well at Agra, Cawnpore, and Lucknow. The greatest anxiety is felt regarding Lucknow. General Havelock, after crossing the Ganges, de- feated the enemy at Oonor on the 30th of July. Oa the 31st he attacked the enemy in a very strong position in the town of Busserat Gunje, and again defeated them with great slaughter, and took all their guns. His own loss was 88 killed and wounded. Ho then retired on the captured artillery. On the sth of August he again ad vanced towards Lucknow, and gained two more victories. On the sth and on the 12th he then found the enemy strongly entrenched in their positions, and numbering 50,000 men. Finding it impossible to cut his way to Lucknow, in the face of such a force, General Havelock was com pelled to retire to Cawnpore and to wait for rein forcements. in the meantime, the position of the gallant garrison of Lucknow is most precarious. M tjor Banks, who has acted as Commissioner since Sir H. Lawrence's death, has fallen, but the date of this melancholy occurrence is not stated. The facts above statA are drawn from new: - papers and private letters, but they are believed to be substantially correct. No official account has yet been published. BENGAL. A party of the Behrampor© mutineers has be sieged Arrab, and a detachment of H.M.'s 10th and 37th Regiments, advancing to relieve that place, was drawn into an ambuscade, and suffered very severely. Arrah has since been relieved by a force under Major Eyre. BEHRAMPORE. The 631 Native Infantry and 11th Irregulars were disarmed Ist August. CALCUTTA. The mutineers in lower Bengal have again caused great alarm in Calcutta. The Governor- General's body-guard has been disarmed. Appre hensions are entertained of a rising at the Mohur rum Festival, but careful precautionary measures have been adopted. Lord Elgin has arrived in Calcutta, and the Hon. J. P. Grant has been appointed Lieut.- Governor of Alkhabad, and Sir James Outrain to the command of the troops in the Patna aid Cawnporo districts. PUNJAUB. The 26th Regiment, which mutinied at Meeat Meer, has been almost entirely destroyed. All remains quiet in the Punjaub and Sutlej States up to August 14. General Cortland has possession of Sandi and Hissar. H. H. Maharajah Goolab Singh died on the 2i of August. In Ajpoutara States, Nusserabad, it had been NEEMUCH. There has been a disturbance at this place, of which the particulars are not fully known. Twenty-one troopers of the 2d Light Cavalry have deserted. ABO OH. The detachment of the Joudpore Legion, 50 men, at this place, have mutinied, and are sup posed to have joined the Thakoor of Rowa, an outlawed chief, who is plundering villages and sealing cattle in the Seroi country Mbow, and the Bhopol contingent has mutinied at Sehgre. Colonel Burard reports the whole of Western Mahwa to be in a very disturbed state, and that a large body of men are collected at Mundisore. BOMBAY. GIIZERAT.-With the exception of symptoms of disloyalty, immediately suppressed, in the terri tory of th 9. Rajah of Mundisore, tranquillity has, been preserved in Guzerat. KHOLAPORE. The mutiny in the 26th Regiment has been suppressed ; 30 of the mutineers have been exe cuted others are undergoing their trial. The headquarters of the regiment at Kholapore and the detachment at Rutnagherry, have been disarmed. The detachment of European troops thrown into Rutnagherry, Belgaum, Dasnear, and Sawunt Whasree, have preserved tranquility in these districts. At Belgaum three men have been ezeouted for treasonable practices, ono of them a sepoy in the 29th N.I. In Bombay itself, the Mohurrum has passed off quietly. MADRAS. The Bth Madras Light Cavalry has been dis armed, for refusing to proceed to Bengal. HYDERABAD. All quiet at Hyderabad up to August 3 ; some apprehensions were entertained that the Chamea see Raj ►h of Sherapoor was meditating rebellion, but arrangements have been made for crushing him.

With their present company, and good pieces like the present, this management may defy com petition. No stars , are required •at this house. The theatre was crowded to the very roof. Mr. Nelson Lee was called for, _and addressed the audience in a neat speech, telling them what he had in store. This gelid, - man, we believe, writes the pantomimes for nearly every theatre in London. CREMORNE GAR DENS. Notwithstanding the unfavourable state of the weath , and lateness of the season, a considerable number of rt. spectable persons responded to Mr. Simpson's appeal last night in aid of the national fund now being raised for the relief of our. suffering brethren in India. At the lowest calculation theie could not have been less present than ten or twelve thousand individuals, and the scene was one of great enthusiasm. The excellent juvenile band of the Duke,of York's School attended, by permission of the commandant, and their martial appearance, not less than their effective performance, created considerable interest. The various places of amusement were exceed ingly well supported, and if any preference were notice able, it was in the Cirque, where the performances of the Zuigliani family and of Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Adams seemed recognised in a marked manner. The latter talented artistes, who throughout the season have given such satisfaction, left Cremorne two or three weeks since, but returned purposely to aid the noble cause of the evening. Indeed the readiness with which the whole of the performers attached to this popular place of amuse ment tendered their gratuitous services for the occasion deserve especial commendation. The general arran;:e rnents were admirable, quite in keeping with those which have always characterised the management of Mr. Simp son. Everything was orderly and well conducted, and not the shadow of ground was afforded for complaint at the manner in which the mass of visitors retired from the gardens and repaired to their respective homes an hour or two after midnight. The pyrotechnic display, on al: unequalled scale of splendour aild brilliancy, gave gene ral satisfaction, and the lust artistic effort of the pyro technist, exhibiting in vivid colours the words, " Success to our Cause,'! was the signal for an outburst of enthu siastic applause, which plainly told how the spectators sympathised with the sufferings endured by the European residents of our Indian empire, where the recent acts bf barlaarity have been perpetrated. Mr. Simpson has done himself much credit by devoting the entire proceeds of this most successful fete to the fund now so promptly and generously created by the nation ; and there cau be little doubt that, through his exertions, a very large additional sum will be placed at the disposal of the com mittee. DEBUT OF MR. CHARLES MATHEWS AT THE BROAD• Way THEATRE.—CharIes Mathews, the eminent English comedian, whose name and reputation have a world-wide extent, made his first appearance after many years' ab eence on the boards of the Broadway on Monday night. Time has bot very sensialy affected Mr. Mathe ws' powers. Eie is still the same light, easy, airy gentleman be used to,.be when, in company with Vestris, his late wife, he played in the old Park Theatre. His utterance, how ever, seems slightly impaired, probably by the loss of his teeth. In his admirable Bono he was very indisticct, and, many of the best points, were en tirely lost on the audience. A. peculiar charae ter;stic in Mr. Mathews' acting is the constancy with which he keeps the attention of the audience fixed on himself. Not a motion, not a gesture deer he use, that has not a point in it, and this is true under circum stances when his position in the piece is subordinate a. , Well as when it fills a prominent place. Mr. Methewe' talents were exhibited to great advantage on Monday night .— in — his own farce, "Patter versos Clatter," in which he drew down the plaudits and evoked the mirth of as large a house as ever the Broadway could boast of. There was not a spot unoecupied from the parquette to the gallery. There was one' serious drawback to the enjoyment of the evening, and that was the bad ventila don of the theatre. The temperature was about equal to that of the boiler-room of a steamship, and the odours were hardly describable in language. Mopes, in the comedy of " Married for Money," it strikes us, is net Mr. Mathews' best character. In fan, there, is only one scene in the piece in which his talents have play ; and if it were not that he was well supported the performance would have been rather tame. , Mr. Mathews was called out after the comedy, and was very warmly received. A speech veal demanded ; but greatly to the disappointment of the audience, Mr. Conway, the stage manager, came out and made a speech about him- . self and his great success in Europe, and his gratitude for the reception he met with from the audience—though he was not called out at all—all of which seemed rather incomprehensible to the auditory. At the close of the farce, however, Mr. Mathews responded to the call, and begged to be excused from making a speech ; briefly thanking the audience, at the same time, for the flatter ing reception he had met with at their hands.—Neiv Yorh. Herald, Sept 16. The Elector of Hesse, on the 24th, gave a private audience to Count Karnicky, the new Austrian Minister at his court, and the count presented his credentials. THE MEDITERRANEAN TELEGRAPH. LIVERPOOL. Monday.—The steam-tug Blazer, of 150-horse power, belonging to the Liverpool Steam Tug Company, has been selected to assist in laying the telegraph cable be tween Cagliari, Malta, and Corfu, and is at present re-1 ceiving on board, from the works of Messrs. Newell, Birkenhead, about 30 tons of the cable, with which she will sail . next week. The Blazer is well ridapted for this work, having stowage room for coal for 12 days' steaming. HERTFORDSHIRE REGISTRATION.—The revision of the register for this country was completed at St, Alban's on Friday last before Mr. S. C. C. Fish. Mr. J. F. Bonteins appeared throughout the county as general agent for the Liberals, Mr. Henry Edwards for Sir Henry Meux, who is now a supporter of the Govern ment, and Mr. Passingham for the Conservatives. The following is the result of the whole revision .—Liberal clams allowed, 214 ; Conservatives struck off, 157 ; total, 371. Conservative claims allowed, 164; Liberals struck off, 136 ; total, 300. Liberal gain, 71. This is exclusive of 43 votes made by Sir H. !Vieux on his own estate, which are not cr_sunted on either side: THE LONDON AND EASTERN BANKING CORPORATION —Yesterday at Ipswich Vice-Charceller Sir W. Page Wood heard the arguments in support of the petition of Messrs. Stuart and Duplex, shareholders in this unfortu nate concern, praying that an order absolute might be granted for winding up in Chancery. Before the hearing his Honour expressed a strong opinion on the inexpedi ency of making such motions in vacation, on the ground of expense and inconvenience to the p:,rties interested. The facts of the petitioners' case were then discussed at great length, and, at the conclusion his Honour, without calling on the other side ford reply, declined to make the winding-up order as prayed, observing that there) did not appear to him to be a single ingredient in the case to warrant his so doing. The equities of the case seemed to him to have been settled among the great body of share holders without judicial intervention, and he did not think the petitioners had made out a claim to justify compliance with their prayer. The petition was therefore dismissed. It represented only - 200 shares. THREATENED ENOROACHMeNTS ON BLACKHEATH The Greenwich District Buard of Works and vestry have resolved upon opposing what is justly considered an encroachment upon the rights of the public, and which threatens the preservation of Blackheath as an open space for their recreation. Almost in the centre of the heath the foundation of a church has alrea - ly been corn menced, and which it is considered, if allowed to 'be erected, will prove the forerunner of a neighbourhood springing up, by residences being built on surrounding open spaces. The Dist riot Board of Works of Greenwich, on the motion of Mr. Richardson, one of its members, is seeking the co-operation of the authorities of the district of Piumstead, with the view of memorialising the Metro politan Board of Works to prevent the erection of the church being proceeded with. There is another part of the heath even more objectionable still, aed wh'.ch it is now being attempted to obtain a purchaser for a very short lease in order to secure the erection of resi dences, and which is known to visitors as the Poiet. From no part of the heath ate more magnificent views of the surrounding metropolis to be obtained, but as this land (consisting of about three acre:) reverts to the Crown at the end of about 40 years, and a protest has been 'entered against bui!dings being erected thereon by the authorities, it is ve r y questi enable, per haps, whether a purchaser of the ,prerecwthle,ns saorttsent ht will be obtained. At the present time r is directed to the necessity of providing Public parks, and securing pure air to the inhabitants of tais densely crowded metropolis, it certainly behoves the authorities to secure intact the open spaces a ! re ady existing. Some years since an attempt of a similar nature was Made to erect certain residences in Greenwich -park, but which was frustrated by the o pp osition -of the inhabitants, and it becomes them now equally to be on the alert, to pre , vent their heath being taken from them piecemeal GENERAL HAVELOCK'S COLM ' General Havelock, after pushing on half-way to Luckno.w, and defeating the insurgents two or three times in the Oude province, was compelled by the weakness of his force, reduced by expo sure, fatigue, sickness, and constant fighting, to withdraw to Mungutwar, six miles from the Ganges, and ultimately, on the 13th August, to recross with all his force to Cawnpore, where he now is; Bithore having been meanwhile reoccu pied by mutineers from Sangor and others, num bering about 4,000, with five guns. General Havelock attacked it on the 16th, and carried the position, capturing two guns. His force is re duced to 900 men, who are worn out with fatigue and need repose, and he considers that to advance on Lucknow until reinforced would be.to court annihilation. Adequate reinforcements it is feared cannot reach him in less than ten days or a fort night from the present time, Her Majesty's sth and 60th China troops having been, moreover, here detained below, in consequence of the dis- • ,urbances in Beshar. No news later than 22d ult. from Luckpow, but by more recent native account the garrison were holding out well, and it is believed that they have managed to lay in additional provisions. General Havelock expects to be attacked simul taneously by the Muds (Dudes) insurgents from the left bank of the river, as well as from the side of Futtebpore, where boats were collecting, and from the direction of Calipee, where Gwalior mutineers, strong in artillery, threatened to cross and form a junction with the Oude rebels. A steamer has been sent down by the General to destroy the boats at Futtebpore, but his force is too weak to oppose the passage of the Wumna (Jumna), at Wipe% The Oude people are making aggressions on our villages to the north of the Ganges, and it is feared that communication between Allahabad and Benares may be inter- r up ted. Delhi is still in the hands of the insurgents. Our accounts extend to the Bth of August. There appears to have been severe fighting on the 30th of July. The Ist and 2d instant, when the enemy, reinforced by troops from Neemuch, attempted to carry our position, they were repulsed as usual. Their loss is said to have exceeded 3,000 men, including 900 of the Neemuch force, who did not return to the city after the failure on the Ist, and they are reported to be really dispirited. On the Bth their powder manufactory in the city was blown up by a shell, and about 500 artificers are believed to have been destroyed, together with a large quantity of sulphur and saltpetre. They have been for some time short of English powder, and of fusees, and the supply of gun caps is said to be failing ; they daily manufacture pow der of inferior quality. The Kumaga Battalion of " Goorkhas" reached Delhi with treasure, am munition, and stores, on the Ist, and a reinforce ment of 1,300 Europeans and 3,000 Punjambeel, from the Punja.ub, was expected to arrive on the 15th. Retrograde movement is now not thought of, though at one time it was talked of. No fight ing since the 2d inst. AGRA, &c. News from Agra received up to the 11th inst. All well in the fort and plenty of provisions. Garrison consists of 3d European Regiment and a European battery, both very weak. The whole Christian population is within the fort. Relief from the eastward urgently called for. There is a want of funds. Allyghur occupied by an agent of the King of Delhi. Goruckpore has been abandoned by the civil officers, with the whole of the Goorka fgrce. They were ordered on the 11th to hold both Goruckpore and Azimghur if possible, other wise to bring the whole force to Azimghur and hold it, instead of moving on Allahabad as they intended. NATIVE STATES IN CENTRAL INDIA -BUNDELCUND, RAJPOOTANA, &c. Colonel Durand, the officiating agent, was last heard of on the 31 inst. Holkar is believed to be quite loyal, though appearances were against him. Of Scindia we have no trustworthy infor mation ; it is certain that he has taken the Regi ment of the Gwalior Contingent into his pay, but with what purpose we do net yet know. At Chore, in the Bhopal State, the Bhopal Contin gent is reported to have seized smne guns and a howitzer, and to have raised the Mahomedan standard. Amjchra Rajah revolted, and took possession of Mehidpore ; be has been partially coerced by Holkar. _ _ The chief of Jhabooa has behaved well in pro tecting Captain Hutchinson, the Bheel agent, and the other Europeans ; he has been thanked. T►ie Rajah of Rewah is thoroughly true, and is aiding us in every way. The Punnah chief and others of Bundlecund are believed to be loyal. The conduct of the Jye pore and Bhurtssoro Sirdars is reported by the Lieutenant-Governor to have been very questioL able. All the other native states in Rajpootana were all right, and Ajmere quiet on the 31st ult. BENGAL AND BEHAR. Major Eyre, with 3 gnus and about 150 Earc peans defeated the rebels under Kover Sing on the 12th instant, and relieved the Europeans who had been for some days besieged in a small house at Arrah, and with the aid of 50 Sikhs had gallantly defended themselves. Kover Sing has fled over the hill towards Rohtas. On the 19th he was at Akburtore Eteas Ro hasgurh ; his brother Amur Sing, was in the hills flanking the Grand Trunk road, and i❑ it 4 neighbourhood there is insecurity, consequently all quiet, however, between Benares and Sher ghotty. Seven lacs of treasure at Gya have bun brought into Calcutta by the collector, Mr. Alonz Money, with the aid of a. few Europeans, and about 100 Sikh soldiers. The stations of Chupra, Chumparun, and Mo zufferpore, which the civil officers had abandoned by order of Mr. Taylor the Commissioner, have been reoccupied, and tranquillity may soon be restor2d. Since the last mail Lift the sth Irregu hr Cavalry, in the Santhal district, are ea route to Arrab, and it is not known where they now are. A party of the Dinapore mutineers has been heard of about 18 miles south-west of Murz tpore, as making for the Jumna somewhere about Ct'l pee, with the intention probably of joining the Gwalior mutineers, and ultimately the Oude in surgents. Some Rewahtroops-750 infantry, 300 cavalry, THE IMPERIAL MEETING AT STUTTGARD. The Constitutionnel at length pronounces its opinion on the interview at Stuttgard, and comes to the conclusion already formed by the principal otgans of the European press and by the public, ;hat an essentially pacific spirit presides that inter view, and that the general interests of European states will be consulted by the two sovereigns. We reproduce the views of the Constitutionnel with the remark that its reflections on the attitude of the German press are ont of date, for the announce ment of the approaching interview at Weimar has relieved any apprehension or destroyed any hopes that may have been entertained by certain Prussian end Austrian journals, and has led to a complete change in their views and language " The solemn meeting at Stuttgard attracts at the present moment the attention of Europe, and creates in certain points of Germany an emotion which appears somewhat of an exaggerated cha racter. This emotion may nevertheless be readily conceived. The meeting of the two Emperors could not fail to awaken instinctively certain recol lections which half a century has not effaced from the memory of nations. • Certain analogies, rather apparent than real, the resemblance of names and places, have enhanced the illusion which a gloomy policy has been pleased to foment. A portion of the press of Germany has in the last few days undertaken to revive past reminiscences, to lend a certain fallacious character to the Stuttgard inter view, and to prepare resistance to its results. It has been asked whether Stuttgard is not to be con sidered as another Erfurt, and where another Alexander and another Napoleon are not about to shake hands over the head of Germany. It would be waste of time to reply to thee fears, or to prove how great is the difference between the times, the circumstances, and the peisonal character of the the two Emperors. Napoleon 111. and Alexander 11. have, it is known, inaugurated their reign by a common idea—peace 1 Their ambition is directed to pacific triumphs, to theprogress of their subjects. In their ideas, the interests of nations rise superior to the satisfied pride of governments. The fatality of war- which they were compelled to undergo tended to enhance their inborn moderation and-wisdom. This should suffice, in our opinion, to calm these imaginations that have been too deeply excited ; for why, amidst so many interpretations that have been presented, should not the one be preferred which is so naturally indi cated by the past ? Serious and numerous diffi culties of a nature to compromise the peace of the world have arisen within late years. More than one of these difficulties has been happily an d glo riously surmounted by means of a powerful spirit of corciliation ; but some are still in existence, and fresh ones have arisen. Several countries of Eu rope are in an unsatisfactory state, and are deli vered up to erailirrassments which may attract the attention of th sovereigns. Events have, more over, taken place sufficiently serious to appeal to their high solicitude. No one can anticipate the . results of their secret conference ; but the policy which inspired the peace of Paris has, we imagine, offered sufficient guarantees to authorise unlimited security in the future. Should the traditions of a policy inspired by suspicion and jealous suscepti bilities still exist id the councils of Europe, it is to be supposed that the spirit which has presided the Stuttgard interview will remain as a salutary elc ample. The inspirations of that ancient policy maY be detected in the suspicious and uncharitable inter pretation given by certain journals to the meeting at Stutgard, at a time when past events teStifie u with sufficient eloquence to the real signification of hat interview." THE HEALTH OF OUR TROOPS IS 11VDIA. It may be gratifying to the many who are not volunteering their services for India to learn that, with ordinary precaution, the heat of the climate can not only be endured, but its effects made ill' nocuous by a judicious mode of living. It is with a view of warding off some of the blows which are inflicted on the heedless that we offer few practical remarks, suggested by many year s ' campaig ing and marching from Calcutta to SW ber. Avid the sun in the middle of the day as, much as you can in all seasons ; a difficult rule JU$ now, but obey it whenever you can. Let your tur ben be ample, choose the larger sort, it fo!ds grace; fully round helmet or czacko, and should come well down over temples and neck. Whenever you Wear, the forage-cap in the sun, place your handkerch ief inside. Drink as little water as possible. at all times. When tliirs'c, overpowers you in the field , moisten your lips with a little dilute , l spirits from your canteen (all wear them, from the General to the trumpeter) ; repeating the same whenever most needful, you will remain fresher than those around you who gulp off their little store at a single draught, and afterwards suffer bitterly for it. It is the knowledge of having a reserve which keeps thirst away more effectively than anything else. Cold tea, without milk, and perhaps a small addi lion of spirits, is a fine thing to take on in the can teen. Drink spirits, but moderately, and diluted with water. Never touch raw spirits, or your liver will soon tell a tale. Beware of excess as you value your life. Ycfl may often recover, but not one drunkard as Ye" has escaped in the long run ! If you have not sufficient control over yourself to be moderate, abstain altogether from spirits , although your health will probably not be so goody,. the enervating climate exacting a stimulant to a ss/0 in digestion and secretion. Eat plenty of curry and rice, every day of your life if you like, you cannot eat too much of it. • Avoid fruits and slops, especially in the hot sea son, but eat guavas whenever you can get the o: 1 1 as they have excellent medicinal properties. Avo,r. the common ghee and wiler bullock's-milk of the bazaars—your health will' be all the better for the abstention. 0 Take a cold bath as often as you can • a .. weathers, twice a day if you like. This is Y°l*". best preventive against colds and rheumatism, 8° prevalent in tropical climates. Wear flannel on your chest and abdorueT Flannel and curry are the two best soldiers' &low: in India. Look to good boot, wet feet have &I l k more mischief than the sword. Spend your .1•61 rupee on a yard of English flannel, or a pai r English boot, of which you must certainly ta'" out two stout pair. Country boots will do in dry weather in quarter* but you cannot march in them without gettiul sore feet, and the leather admits the water like sponge. Do not take out a single article of light cloth with you, but plvnty of warm. You will find oil! to your utter surprise, that in the coldest moot"; you will shiver more from cold in the nor th-09 than you ever have done at home. a La-t, not least, be always cheerful in mind, 91 1 16 look forward with faith and trust.
