IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF LORD3.—(This Evening.) T,:e LORD CHANORLLOR took hie seat on the woolsack at 5 o'clock. The Bishop of CHICHESTER presented a petition from the clergy of his diocese against the Divorce Bill. The Bishop of OXFORD presented a similar petition from the clergy and dt anery of Maidenhead. The Earl of ALBEMARLE postponed the presenta tion of the petition from the King of Oude, from Friday next until a future day. THE MEERUT MUTINY. The Earl of ELLENBOROUGH said that in come queues of the recentdisastrous intelligence received from India, he rose to put a question to the noble lord oppo s:te. A few evenings ago he put a question to the Go vernment as to the measures they intended to take to rrevent a great ,calamity that was then threatening. He bad asked whether any instructions bad been sent out to India to assure the natives that there was no intention on the part of the Government to interfere with the exercise of their religion. He received no reply to that question. In the newspapers of the day he had learned that a proclamation bad been issued, which stated in the strongest terms that fact. But what WAS the date when that proclamation was issued? It was made known on the 16th of May, when the mutiny had fully developed itself— when a proclamation was made by the mutineers de claring a new King of Delhi. Now, the Government bad ample notice in India of all the dangers that were c ,ming upon them, for as early as the 22d of February there was an incendiary fire near Calcutta. From. that period, and for three months, there was evidence of t`.3 d saffection in the army. On the 25th of February the 19th Regiment mutinied and was then disbandei. Oa the' 6h of March the 54th Regiment mutinied, and a system of revolt had spread over the country. On the 31 of May Sir H. Lawrence, having reason to suspect an outbreak, came upon the disaffected regiments unawares and had them disbanded and made prisoners. That officer had acted with the greatest discretion in tauing these steps. But what was the case at Meerut ? An officer of the name of Hewett—an untried man--was in com mand at that place—where was General Anson, the commander-in-chief, all this time ? He hoped he bad still some regiments faithful to him ; but the accounts just received were most deplorable: - Their lordships must recollect that the present was a most severe season in India. He was afraid that at this moment we could not depend upon the regular army of Bombay. The Irregular 3 might be depended upon, and the assistance of corns of the native princes might be looked for, but that was all. We must not disguise from ourselves the fact that we were carrying on three wars in Asia upon a peace establishment. The noble earl then condemned the sending of so many men to China to assist Sir John towring. We bad now a war on our hands which required as great a force as it was possi ble to send out quite as great as that which until lately raged in the Crimea. He recom mended the sending out to India a great military force— that this country should be placed under arms, and the militia embodied to protect the peace at home. He wishell to ask what measures were to be adopted to reinforce the army in India, and place us at home in security ? The Earl of GRANVILLE said he did not think it would be wise to pronounce' any opinion upon the sub ject that the noble earl had• brought forward until the arrival of the next-mail. The aspect of affairs in India was no doubt serious, but he thought from the observa tions of the loble lords great and unnecessary alarm would be excited.

Mr. COBBEIT asked the President of the Poor Law Bard if he knew when the report of the board, which was laid on the table of the house on the 12th day of March, would be printed ! Mr. BOUVERIE said that the report had been print-d for Borne time, but the delay of its being pre sented arose with the stationery office not receiving the necessary orders for furnishing it to the house. That had now been remedied, and the report would be pre sented forthwith. POSTAL COMMUNICATION WITH AU& TRALIA. Mr. H. BERKELEY asked the Secretary to the Treasury what arrangements had been made to supply the interruption in the Steam Postal Contract Service with Australia, in consequence of the accident to. the mail steam-packet Oneida, and whether the mail duo in the next month might be expected in the proper course at Snez, or by the long sea route by Cape Horn. Also, whether it were true, as formally stated in the Sydney newspapers, that the same portion of the machinery of the steamer Oneida which broke down on her passage with the first mail, between King George's Sound and Point de G elle ' had been previously damaged whilst she was employed as a Government transport, and patched up with iron plates at Glasgow before her departure upon the Australian mail service ; further, whether such damage was re ported to the Government by the Admiralty Surveyor Sir C. WOOD, in the absence of the Secretary to the Treasury, said that the Emu had taken the place of the ' Oneida to bring home the mails, but it was impos sible for him to answer what arrangements bad been made for bringing home the next mail, because that depended on the arrangements that had been made at Sydney. The Oneida was surveyed by an Admiralty surveyor, and was reported (as we understood Sir Charles to say) unfit for service, and how it vias she was taken up for the service he was unable to state. INDIA. • On the motion for the house going into committee of 63ply, Mr. DISRAELI called attention to the intelligence just received detailing an outbreak in India.

In my letter of the 11th I mentioned that a tele graphic message had that afternoon arrive 1 at Bom bay from Agra, to the effect that the 3d Bengal Light Cavalry, stationed at Meerut, was in a state iof open mutiny. The report soon received ample confirmation, and worse was to follow. For several day 3 the intelligence from the north-west told of nothin g but revolt and murder. As was to be ex pect?d, much thus reported has since turned out to be untrue. Stations said to be disturbed are found to he perfectly quiet, and eminent public servants a serted to have fallen victims to the soldiery are preserved to their families and to the State. Other facts there are, too, of a cheering nature—the steadi ness and promptitude of the Lieutenlnt-Governor, the loyalty of the native States of Central India„ the failure of the outhreak in its attempt to spread over and occupy a very extended area. Neverthe less, after making allowances for these legitimate sources of comfort, the occurrence is one of the gravest moment. At the two great stations of Mee rut and Delhi the whole of the native troops have broken out into mutiny and plunder. From the former place they have fled or been expelled. The latter, where no European troops were quartered, remained, at the date of the latest accounts, corn pletely in their possession. I will endeavour t ) digest into a continuous nar rative as much of the fragmentary intelligence that has been day by day rushing down from Agra as has been proved, or may be reasonably conjectured, to be true. At the commencement of this month the native force at Meerut consisted of the 3d Light Cavalry and the 11th and 20th Regiments of Native Infantry. Among the cavalry the question of the greased cart ridges, which had previously been mooted at Bar rackpore and other stations, was freely agitated. The result of the movement was that 85 men of the regiment refusing to handle the cartridges, found themselves in the early days of the month tried by court-martial, and sentenc3d to various terms of impriEonment with hard labour. On the 9th their sentence was read out on parade, and the offenders marched off to gaol. Up to this time disaffection bad shown itself only through incendiary fires in the lines, hardly a night passing without one or more conflagrations. But on the 10th it appeared at once in all its unsuspected strength. Towards the evening of that diy, while many of the Eu ropeans were at church—for it was Sunday—the men of the two native infantry regiments, the 1111 and 20th, as if by previous conceit, assembled together in armed and tumultuous bodies upon the parade ground. Several officers hurried from their quarters to endeavour to pacify them. Colonel Finnis, of the 11th, was one of the first to arzive, and was the first victim of the outLrealc. He was shot down while addressing a party of the 20th, which is said to have been the foremost regiment in the mutiny. Other officers fell with the Colonel or in the terrible motrents that ensued, for the troopers of the 3d Cavalry poured out of their quarters to join the insurgent infantry, and the whole body, now thoroughly committed to the wildest excesses, rushed through the native lines of the cantonment, slaying, burning, and cl , slroying. Every house was fired, and every Englishman, woman, or child, that fell in the way of the muti nears was pitilessly massacred. Happily, however, many of their officers and their families—the great majority, I hope and believe—have already escaped to the European lines, where they took refuge in the Artillery School of Instruction. Mr. Greathed, tlae Commissioner, and his wife were saved, it is said, by the fidelity of their servants, who assured the assassins that their mas ter and mistress had left their house, though they were at the time concealed in it. The mutineers set fire to the bungalow and passed on. The names of the victims lam unable as yet to give with certainty or completeness. This, however much to be regretted, is, in the present confused state of things at and around Merut, inevitable. A list was published here yesterday, emanating from Agra, and said to be "from au thority,.though open to correction." 1 will copy it in extenso presently, when I have written of the occurrences at Delhi. While the main body of the mutineers were thus destroying the houses in the native lines, some of their number proceeded to the gaol, broke it open and' released the prisoners of the 31 Cavalry. Which regiment had furnished the gaol guard on that day is not stated ; but as we hear of no resist ance and r•o loss of European life at that point we may pre - mme it was one of the native corps. Mean : - while the European portion of the brigade was called out and marched down to the native lines. It consisted of the Carabineers, the Ist Battalion of the 60th Rifles, and Artillery, horse and foot. But they were too late to save life or pro perty, and night falling fast, they were un able, we are told, to inflict any serious loss on the insurgents, who abandoned the station and betook themselves to the open country. Some of them— how many we know not, but probably a large body —made the best of their way down to Delhi, dis tant some 40 miles. The garrison of this city was entirely native. It consisted of three regiments of infantry—the 38th, 54th, and 74th, and a company of one of the native battalions of artillery. On the arrival of the mutineers from Meerut the whole of the infantry force ran t) arms, and forced, we are told, the reluctant artillery to join them. The latter stipulated for the safety of their officers, all of whom accordingly have reached Meerut. The infantry showed no such good feeling, but attacked their officers, though with different degrees of in veteracy, the 38th being the worst. Tnen tice in surgents ran riot through the city, which was en tirely at their mercy, and the bloody scenes of Meerut were reproduced in the streets of this ancient Mogul capital. How many Eng lish lives have hero been lost will in all pro bability not be fully known till the day of retribution has arrived and the place is again in our possession. Many are already known to have escaped, as will be seen from the list already re ferred tr), and which I will now subjoin. But it is feared to be only too certain that Mr. Fraser, the Commissioner, has fallen, and Captain Douglas, Commandant of the Palace Guard, and Mr. Jen nings, chaplain of the station, with his daughter and many others of all degrees, including Sir Theo philus Metcalfe KILLED AT MEERUT, 11th Regiment Native Infantry.—Colonel Finnis and Mrs. Chambers. 20th Regiment Native Infantry.—Captain and Mrs. M'Donald, Captain Taylor, Lieutenant Henderson, and Ensign Pattie. $d Light Cavalry.—Lieutenant MaeNabb, Veterinary Surgeons Phillips and Dawson, and Mrs. Dawson and children. 6th Dragoons.-1 private (name unknown).

Raving thus got rid of All the English in the city, the insurgents proceed to proclaim some off. shoot of the old Royal House Sovereign of India, and in this position, with the town and its treasure at their disposal, but, as we shall presently see, no further rising or influx of mutineers to assist them, they await their inevitable dcom. But to revert to Meerut. On the evening of the 16th occurred the murder of Capt. Fraser,' whose name appears in the list. This officer was cornmeal. , dant of the Bengal (Native) Sappers and Minerok . He was marching down from the headquarters of his corps at Beorkee to Meerut, with_a body of his men. On reaching their destination the Sappas fell out among themselves, probably in discussing the propriety of following the mutinous example that had been set them, and when their commanding officer attemptei to compose their quarrel one of their number shot him through the head. They then broke and fled, but were pursued by parties of the Carabineers and 60th, and for the most part killed or captured. Since thii occurrence Meerut has been tranquil. Fears being entertained that the convent at Sirdhana with its children's school might be attacked and devastated, a party was sent out from Meerut, which brouglit in all ttre nuns and children to a safe asylum at the station. It remains to mention how the intelligence of the mutiny was received at other stations in the north. west, and what steps have been taken towards the punishment of offenders. At Agra, as from its proxia mity to Delhi might be expected, public excitement at first ran high. But great as was the emergency, Mr. Colvin, the Lieutenant-Governor, proved him- Of equal to meet it. On the morning of Thursday, the 14th, when the popular ferment was at its height, and the wildest rumours were abroad, Mr. Colvin harangued the whole brigade of the station, the European soldiers as well as the native, on the parade-ground. By all—no less by the two native regiment., the 44th and 67th, than by the European artillery—his address was received with applause. Even after he had left the ground the cheering of the Sepoys continued long and loud. The effect of this happy speech was shortly felt throughout the whole of the city, which settled down again into a state of quiescence that has not again been disturbed. At Etawah, a station further down the Jumna, half a dozen of the mutinous 3d Cavalry were cut to pieces by the police and a small party of the 9th Native Infantry. At Allyghur the 9th Native In fantry arrested a mutinous agent whom they found in their lines, and handed him over to the com manding officer. At Benares, and throughout Ben- gal, all was and has remained quiet. At Lucknow the mutiny of the 7th Oude Infantry preceded by some days the emeitte at Meerut, but it was checked by the firmness of Sir H. Lawrence and the loyalty of the rest of the brigade, and the Regiment dis persed at the flash of a lighted port-fire, and has ceased to exist. Since then, down to the 18th, the date of our latest news, the city and district have been tranquil. Indeed, the insurrection in the North-west may, I hope, be said t) be confined within the walls of Delhi. Within these walls it will be—very possibly has already been— beaten down awl trodden out. One ef the first acts of the Lieutenant-Governor was to issue the vigorous proclamations which I enclose, placing under martial law the districts around Meerut and Delhi, to the eastward of the Jumna, warning all landholders and others from joining the insurgents, and announcing that prompt vengeance would overtake all past or future delinquents. These are no vain threats, incapable of being car ried into execution. The great blow will be de livered from the North ; but by all the great roads in other directions troops have been closing in upon the doomed city. The Sirmore battalions were at Boolundshuhur, on the east, the Agra Bri gades, strengthened by cavalry and artillery from Gwalior, advancing from Muttra on the south, the troops of the Jat Rajahs of Bburtpore and Ulwar moving up on the west. From the north-west were pouring down the horsemen of the Rajahs of Putteala and Jheend, while the great road from the hill stations by Kurnaul and Meerut lay open for the march of the Commander-in-Chief. General Anson was to leave Umballah, whither he had re. paired in haste from Simla, on the 18th. He had brought with him from Kassowlie her Majesty' 75th Regiment. At Umballah he found the 9th Lancers, the Ist European Fusiliers marched in from Dugshaie, the 4th Light Cavalry, the sth and 6th Native Infantry, and two troops of (European) Horse Artillery. The whole of this force he would, it was expected, take down with him to Meerut, where he would find the Carabineers, the 60th, and a strong force of artillery, and taking them with him would advance at once upon Delhi. .The city lying upon the further or right bank of the Jumna, and being connected with the left bank by a bridge of boats only, which the insurgents have doubtless destroyed, it is possible that some time may be oc cupied in conveying the troops across the river. But before many days are past we shall, I suppose, hear that retribution as signal as merited has been dealt to the insurgent soldiery. I pass to the Punjab. I wish we could feel sure that this the latest acquisition of British power in the North-west would escape the contagion of mu tiny. At Ferozepore, however, disturbances have arisen, and there are rumours also of the existence of disaffection among the regiments cantoned at Meeau Meer, the military station at Lahore. In both cases the offenders, I should mention, are neither Bengal Regulars nor Punjab Irregulars. The Lahore Chronicle of the 15th itst., received to-day, gives an account of the plans adopted to check the spirit of insubordination in the Punjab at a council of war held at Peshawur Major-General Reed, commanding the Peshawar sion, assumes the thief military command in the Punjab. His head-quarters will be the head-quarters of the Pun jab Civil Government. A moveable column will at once be formed at Jhelum, consisting of her Majesty's 27th Foot from Nowshera ; her Majesty's 24th from Rawul Pindee, one European troop of horse artillery from Pesbawur, one light field battery from Jhelum, the Guide Corps from Murdan, 16th Irregular Cavalry from Rawul Pindee, Ist Punjab Infantry from Bunno, Ku maon battalion from Rawul Pindee, a wing of the 2d Punjab Cavalry from Kohat, a half company of Sappers from Attock. The necessary orders for this column have been issued. The column will move on every point in the Punjab where open mutiny requires to be put down by force, and officers commanding at all stations in the Punjab will co-operate with this column.' Such is the position of affairs in the North-West and the Punjab as represented by the latest news received to-day. Here the local Government, secure in the fidelity of its sturdy little-low-caste Sepoys, has found itself able to lend no small assistance, when compared with its means, to the embarrassed Government of Calcutta. The 64th and 78th Regi ments returned to Bombay from the Persian Gulf en Saturday and Sunday last. They found everything ready for their tranship ment when required, from sailing vessels to steamers, and were immediately sent round to Cal cutta. The Ist European Fusiliers are by this time well on their way from Kurrachee to Mooltan by the Indus, and the Ist Belooch battalion is ordered to the same stat►on from Upper Scinde. Madras also has furnished its Ist Fusiliers. Would that we had a dozen more English regiments. Pity that the Himalaya, the Retribution, the Transit, and the rest, are not bound for the Sandheads instead Hongkong. The quarrel with the lethargic, Chins man might keep—not so that with the explosive Bengal Sepoy. News of the Shah's ratification of the treaty with England reached us from Busbire on the 15th. More of the troops will yet be down before the rains in all probability, and will be cantoned at the sta tions near Bombay. We shall be glad to have them, as we have our riots, or rather our riot, and our rumours of riots. At Broach lately a fierce fight took place between those ancient foes the Mussul mans and. the Parsees—if, indeed, that can be called a fight, übi tupulsas ego vapulo tantunt, for the forme r had it all their own way. Irritated, accord uroesseb, of m t u h ss e u ir im m a o n s a q accord ing to their own account, by an act of desecration one e e committed in table Parsee , daefidliedsrepthue principal fire-temple in the place, murdered the c hief priest and another man, and more or less se verely wounded several others. A similar riot was apprehended at Surat, and the Government sent off a wing of the 9th Native Infantry in hot haste to join head-quarters at that stator). Rumours are floating about that the anticipated disturbance did Ili i 711 1 1001 i 1131. 1031 3 83f i 101 7 22A li Di LINES LEASED AT FIXED RENTALS.

WILLOUGJIBY cared attention to what he call,d the gigantic stock jobbing transacLions of tt , e ancellor of the Exchequer with the Savings' Bank funds. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER denied that he had been guilty of gigantic stock broking trans actions in connection with this fund, and said it was vt ry easy to give an unpleasant name to a ything. He contended he had acted legally in what he had done, having only followed the example of former Govern ments in varying the securities. PERSECUTION OF .PROTESTANTS. The trial of three Protestants, MM. Massy, Rambaud, and Ledoux, of Tonztc (Cnarente-Infe rieure), for having been present at-a meeting con sisting of more than twenty persons, hell without authoriswion of government, was published some weeks ago in the MessengBr. M. Massy was more over charged with having publicly insulted a care, and with having turned the Roman Catholic reli gion in`o contempt. The Siecle now offers a de • tailed account of the proceedings which led to the above trial, and which places the matter in an en tirely new light. According to that journal : Country Markets. verting to the struggles we had ha I to maintain in In d a, to the late Russian war, t r the Perkian war to secure India, and to the outbreak in China, he 50.i,1 that we found that the existence of our Indian empire was impaired not by any foreign attack, but by in teri.al enemies in a form that could not have been exp€,ctA, and we bad learned within the last 24 hours that the ancient capital of the Mo2uls was in possession of our insurrectionary and rebellious troops, and los asked for an explanation from the Government. There would be but one feell.,g in that house and the country, viz., that of a determination to support the Government in any emergency the critical state of affairs in India required to secure peace and tranquillity in that coun try, and he asked if the Gove'rnment was preoared to carry those feelings adequately into action. He asked for an explanation of the cause of these calamities, which had not been of a sudden character. There find been for a long time rumours and the occurrence of perplex ing difficulties in that country that could not have been lost on those in authority, and he wished to know if the Government had been forewarned, and Ie wished also to know whether this outburst had arisen from political or religious considerations, or from maladminis tration of political affairs, or fanaticism. The right honourable gentleman then entered into details con nected with the administration of affairs in India, and asked if it were true that the Governor• General of India bad resigned his high office. It was the duty of the Government to take the first op portunity to express to Parliament the cause of this outbreak, and the course they intended to pursue to check the evils contemplated. Mr. V, sArrd denied that the Russion war was undertaken mainly to preserve India, and said that the Government, feeling confidence in the house, bad come to the determination of sending out European rein forcements to India, and next month be hoped 10,000 men would sail for India. The Court of Directors on the receipt of the news had come for Nerd for 4,C00 men which had been granted, and ha hoped in the course of next month 14,000 men would be despatched, part how ever for relief and the others in addition. He, denied thar India was imperilled by this disaster, and he hoped soon to sea the outbreak put down. He felt proud in the manner in which the affair had been managed in India under the circumstan es, and everything that could be done had been done to check the outbreak, and the last advices showed that General Anson would soon be at Delhi with a strong force, and he hoped the next mail would ,show that ample retribution had been taken on the mutineers. It was impossible at present to attribute this outbreak to any particular cause, whether arising front religious feeling, the constitution of the army, or from poli , ical feelings, and he assured the house that no applicate - nsi had been made to the Indian Government for an in crease of force in anticipati.o f such an ontbreale, The right hon. gentleman, after referring to Borne matters likely to have an effect in facilitaeing the in surrection, said that no disagreements had taken place between the Commander of the Forces in India . an I the Governor-General, nor had Loid Canning given the least intimation of his wish to resign, and, from what he (Mr. Smith) knew of that noble lord, he was not a man likely to ahiink from the dis charge of his duties, or the responsibility attaching to his office, in a case of emergency like this. The despatches received from the Governor-General showed that he was under no apprehensions for the future, but that, on the contrary, he exoressed a confident hope of being able to quell this lamentable outbreak. He (Nlr. SLeit9 also expres-ed his belief that there was nothing to fear of a permanent character. The subj , ct then dropped. " M. Massy bad been invited by M. Rambaud, a far. mer, to visit him and to read the scriptures to his family. On the day appointed, M. Massy, not having a horse at hand, gave up the projected visit. But he subse quently met M. Ledoux, a tradesman, who offered to drive him to the house of Rambaud. On arriving there, they found that the family, after having waited for some time, had dispersed in the field, and were engaged in their usual occupations. But the youngest son ran off to fetch his parents, and fn the meanwhile a considerable crowd of persons, numbering more than a hundred, flocked into the house and courtyard in order to listen to the words of M. Massy. Tne latter, surprised at the number around him, demanded the cause, and was then informed that the curd of the parish had on the preceding Sunday announced from the pul pit that a leopard, devouring all that it encountered, was prowling about the country ; that the ferocious beast would probably appear in his parish, but that be should decidedly go to to meet on its arrival ; then, drop ping the metaphor, the curd added that the leopard was a landowner of the name of Messy. The crowd bad consequently assembled in order to witness the encoun ter between the curd and the leopard. M. Massy con tented himself with reading, without comment, the 23d chapter of St. Mathew, in order, as he said, t 3 prove to the audience that religion is holy in spite of the faults committed by those who teach it. A person present asked M. Massy if he believed in the Virgin ; upon which he replied: The miraculous cmception of out Lord Jesus COrist is a mystery I worship ; no woman bas so many claims on our veneration as the Virgin Mary, because she was chosen by God to conceive the Saviour of the World.' But,' said another party, we are told that the Protestants believe that the Virgin had other children, and that she did not always remain young ?' M. Massy, in reply, read the chapter of St. Mark, where it is recorded ,that Jesus bad four brothers, named James, Joseph, Judas, and Simon, and several sisters, and he reminded his hearers that, at the time of the crucifixion, the Saviour nas thirty three years of age. In returning home M. Massy met the curd, who thus addressed I have already said, and I repeat to you, what Ste Polycarp said to Maricon ; You are a demon vomited from hell for the misfortune of the country.' A lively dispute fol lowed, but the provocation was not on the side of M. Massy. We have not the honour of belonging to the Reformed Church, but the religion to which we de be long orders us to protect the weak from the strong, the oppressed from the oppressors ; it teaches us to look upon every man as a brother, without inquiring into his religious belief, and to respect liberty of conscience and of worship. For these reasons do we struggle against all aggressive tendencies, from any quarter that they may proceed. We are the antagonists of every intoler ant clergy." all 10 100 100. 2s'd 108 20 20i 100 100 100 100 I MI I I
