At The following is a list of saved, killed, and miss first there must have been 500 women and children, ing at Bareilly all starved out and afterwards ill-treated, sold by auction, and finally murdered. It is horrible to think of their fate. Four companies o f the 78th highlanders, viz., Grenadiers, No. 3,6, and Light, are the only ones with Havelock. Nos. 1 and 7 are at Allahabad No. 8 at Gazeepore, and the r est here (Benares) with Major Haliburton. They ex- Peet to move on in a week or less." The same journal, of the Ist of August, says : We are greatly rejoiced to hear that news of General Havelock having again beaten that ruffianly scoundrel the Nena Sahib, and taken his fort at Bithoor from him, scattering his forces in all directions, and taking thirteen of his gun.. This cowardly villain is now a homeless wanderer and a fugitive in the jungle, with a price set upon his head, and the 78th Highlanders on his trail. Gen. Havelock is, as well he may be, highly pleased With that glorious Regiment the 78th Hig lenders. In a speech that be made to them after the last thrashing he gave the wretch we have above al luded to; whose name it is pollution to mention More than is absolutely necessary, .Gen. Havelock said—' I have been in 27 fights, and never saw ,a regiment behave better. I will say more, I never amv a regiment behave so well!' It appears that in the fight which - took place near Cawnpore, which led to its re-capture on the 16th ult. and the first flight of the Nena, the 78th charged the guns three different times. No officers were killed, but of the men-17 were killed and wounded. Major otirling and three other officers of her Majesty's 64th Regiment were wounded." The Calcutta Englishman of 21st of July says : A plot was discovered here yesterday, and three of the worst characters in the town, and a banker with 8 lakhs of rupees apprehended. Letters of a highly treasonable nature were disco- Vered ; they purported to be from a certain great one,' and called on the inhabitants to rise and de stroy Messrs. Tucker, Gubbins, Lind, and all Europeans. The plan was, that these three were to raise the disaffected characters, and having made away with those I named by treachery or night at tack, were to polish off all the rest of us. The ban ker was mentioned by name as the person from whom they were to get funds, and in his house some 200 swords, guns, &c., were found.. Gubbins is trying to get some further information out of these prisoners, but I fear they will not peach. The banker actually offered the Darogah a government Promissory note for Its. 10,000, if he would allow him to escape. The Darogali played him a pretty trick : he told the banker he could not trust him, and that he must sign the note,.which he did, and was then taken away, note and all,- to Gubbins.

A letter from Sealkote in the Lahore Chronicle says : " All agree in saying, that at least 80 mutineers were killed this morning. Our loss is, I rejoice to say, not more than four •men of the 52d wounded. The thing was right well planned, and right well executed. • "My first and very brief campaign is over. It is more exciting and interesting a good deal than bear ing appeals. But I must get back to the old dry work. I will see that all is kept going fur securing the runaways, and then purpose making the best of my way back to Lahore. The Sealkote mutineers have indeed been frustrated in their plan. They fully believed that we bad nothing but a few irre gulars and police to meet them, and they were con fident of breaking through. Their discomfiture is complete."

JULY 15.—The enemy came out in force, about 9,000 men, with four guns, at 11 a.m. yesterday, with the intention of taking our batttr es. They fought under cover until 2 o'clock, when they came to the front, and were beaten back into Delhi. Our people, too eager, followed them close under the walls. The enemy opened fire with grape and musketry from the walls ; our loss in killed and wounded was heavy. It is a pity our people fol lowed them, as up to the time of their retreat, we hod only about six men hit. Major Turner, Artillery, wounded in the thigh ; Brigadier General Chamberlain, Adjutant-General, in shoulder; Ches t, r and Daniel, of Goorkhas, wounded ; Burns and Faithful, H. M.'s 75th, slightly—former on the knee, the latter in the arm. The above are the only casualties I can give you at present, and may be relied on as correct. The cavalry was not en gaged.—Lahore Chronicle, July 22. The following is a description of the action on the 9th July before Delhi :—" On the 9th instant, the mutineers turned out in: force and gave us fight ing all along the right front and right flauk. By all accounts they were perfectly mad from churns' on bhang' and fought more boldly than they ever did before. At one point, the mosque, in front of Hindoo Rao's house, where some fifty of the Guides were posted, the rebels left some eighty or ninety dead on the ground, many lying close to the walls ; here also the Guides lost some six or seven men. Oa all points were the, mutineers driven back with great slaughter, and their loss was con sidered as amounting to nearly 1,000 killed and wounded. From my own observation, end from what I have bean told by competent persons, I should say the enemy lost at least 280 killed ; the wounded were nearly all carried away, and many of their dead ; and next morning, to the right of the Lahore gate, looking from our lines, we could perceive large fires, which, we presume were caused by the Pandies burning their dead. The complete success of the repulse was con siderably marred by our allowing about eighty of their Irregular Cavalry to get into camp round the General's mound ; they actually rode nearly right through the camp, and tried to persuade a hative troop of Artillery to come away with them, but it was no go. When they were first discovered, Hill of the Artillery, and a rough rider, went in at them ; poor 'Hill got a severe sword cut on the head ; Major Tombs, who always seems to be in the thick of everything, shot the Sower down ; the Ist Fusiliers now turned out and shot down some of them. Captain Fagan, of the Artillery, got together some Artillery recruits, and some other men, altogether about 25, and followed them on foot, knocked over about 15 of them, and amongst others the head sirdar, a great swell in officer's ap pointments and a Cashmere shawl round his shoul ders ; the Sowars did not do as much mischief as they might have done in camp, but it was certainly a bold proceeding. In the confusion some wretched camp followers were shot by our own men, through mistake. On the whole, we have to re gret one officer of the Bth (King's), and of the whole force about 47 or 50 killed ; one officer of the Bth (King's), one of the Guides, one , of the Goorkas, Hill of the Artillery, and I believe Major Tombs, very s'ightly ; and #bout 160 men of all hands wounded. These fro dear victories, and the enemy can afford their loss, though five or six to one, better than we can. Rumour says they are running short of caps, which, if true, is good news. Some of the men say Jack Sepoy, at least a great number, were fighting with matchlocks and tul wars only. The fight commenced at about 7 a.m. and lasted till nearly 4 p.m., all our troops, native and European, fighting magnificently. Every soldier is looking forward to get inside those ac cursed red walls, which look us steadily in the face every day." MEERUT. A. letter in the Lahore Chronicle, dated July 13 Bays :—" All well here, the battle of the 9th ap pears to have ended in a complete victory over the insurgents ; upwards. of 1,000 of whom lay dead on the field. Our loss wastrifling, one officer killed and two wounded. . The Mabotnedans in Rohilcund are beginning to show what their intentions are ; they have already destroyed all the Hindoo triples in and around Bareilly. This fact alone should open the eyes of the Hindoo population of India as to what they might expect from Mahomedan masters. The Jats in this division are fully aware of what their position would become underosuch a rule. The Sikhs before Delhi aro said to b 3 be having splendidly ; and, together with the Goork has, are the admiration of the force. Would that the Commander-in -Chief had a few more of them with him. We hear from good authority that the Xing of Delhi wishes to make overtures to the Go vernment, and is getting tired of war, now that his army aro running short of percussion caps, and have to convert their muskets into matchlocks. The last shells fired frin the walls are evidently of an inferior character, they seldom burst, have port fires stuck in them instead.of fuses,. and the powder. is evidently of native manufacture. Should the native report be true, that Wheeler, with a large European force, is a few marches, off Delhi, the reign of the insurgents in the Imperial city is a short one. I believe I told you that Mr. Fleet wood Williams has been appointed pro tem. com missioner of this division. He has already done much good, and is without doubt the right man in the right place ; and it is ,h thousand pities he was not appointed before, as it is absurd to suppose that Mr. Greathed, who is with the army before Delhi, could have much influence over a district in a state of insurrection, with two almost impassable rivers separating him from the principal part of his charge." SATTARA. • SATTARA, July 31, 1857.—A1l appears quiet here just now, but the civil authorities are not at all confident that some evil disposed people are not still at work, trying to induce the disaffected to strike a Llow. . . . The Punderpoor prisoners have been tried, and I imagine will be hung, as`a guard of the 3d Europeans has been placed over them. One or two of them are rich influential men, and, hal not European troops been at this station, an attempt might have been made to rescue them. The Mamlutdar they killed at Punderpoor was said to be the best a,nd the one most attached to the British government in this colleotorate. Some anxiety still exists about Punderpoor, as a com pany of the 22d Regiment, under Lieut. Drum mond, Ihas been ordered out there on out-post duty. COMMERCIAL. ' BOMBAY, AUGUST 14. Our money market during the past fortnight has, as is usual at this season of the year, been some what easier, and the banks have reduced their rates of interest 2 per cent. all round, and unless unfore seen circumstances should arise we are of opinion that a further reduction in rates of interest must take place ere long. The Government Notification to receive one-half 4 per cent, paper, and one-half cash into the 5 per cent. loan, has not improved the value of either of these securities. We quote fours 82, and fives 92, few buyers.

On Sunday evening, Mr. David Urquhart, who is. at present sojourning at Lytham, visited Preston, in coin pany with a gentleman whose name our correspondent • ' could not learn, in order to address a meeting of the Fo reign Affairs Committee and their friends. There were about 40 persons present. Mr. Urquhart delivered a characteristic address, embellished, as usual, with violent epithets applied to his audience, and Englishmen in general, such as "you ruiscreants,7 "you scoundrels," "you idiots," "you fools," "you allowed this," &c. Being asked if an extension of the franchise would be an antidote tothe evils of which he complained, he entered into a speech of half an hour's duration, in which he said that the man who used the word " reform" was either a threefold idiot or a threefold knave ; and he talked about "restoring the ancient - constitution of England." 'Mr. J. J. Merriman, editor of the Preston Guardian . , who bad only casually come into the room, then rose, and at some length exposed the sophisms of Mr. Urquhart, who interrupted the•speaker, and said he "did not come there to be talked to, but to talk." The audience, however, insisted upon Mr. - Urquhart maintaining order, and Mr. Merriman proceeding with his address, Mr. Urquhart took up'his bat and retired in a state of indignation.—(A Voice, "There is-one mis creant going now.") (Laughter.) He was then fol lowed by hie unknown friend.—Mr. Merriman went on with his address, and demoliehed the fallacies of Mr. Urquhart. He was supported by another speaker, who asked the committee what was the practical and feasible antidote to the evils of which they, along with Mr. Urquhart, complained t He condemned the visionary scheme of "the Pharisee Urquhart," who certainly was not "as other men are,"' who was constantly be-slaver ing himself with praise, and denouncing as " heathens alt beside." He ridiculed Mr. Urquhart's conduct as suicidal and highly improper ; he came there to them for their co-operation, and then very paradoxically dubbed them "idiots, miscreants, and fools," with the greatest impartiality. After some further discussion, during which Mr. Urquhart was very roughly handled, the proceedings terminated with a vote of thanks to Mr. Merriman.—Mandiesier Guardian. HOW TITUS MANLIUS MACAULEIUS WAS MADE - A PATRICIAN. A LAY OF ANCIENT ROME. (Prom Puna.) The Consul Palmerstonius liath ta'a down his Debrett, And o'er its storied pages His anxious brow is set. Those are not age's wrinkles The Consul's cheek that plough, It is not time that sprinkles .That snow upon his brow. The wrinkles are such wrinkles As a Consul should display : " Up to a wrinkle" meaning Up to the time of day. And if the greys hairs mattered, Their presence 'twould explain To call them snow-flakes scattered To cool that hot young brain. The Consul closed the volume-- He closed it with a bang ! And he seized his slate and pencil From The wall where they did hang ; And straight he sat to ciphering, And out a sum he brought ; And bis sum was of six figures, And it ended with a nought. Then gaily tripped the Consul To the .rarium straight, And before Cornelius Levies He thrust the scribbled slate. " Check you, Cornelius Levies, These figures all and each ; All figures at thy finger-ends, Hest thou, save those of speech." Dry and a-dust, eat Levius, Scanty of words and slack : And he proved the Consul's figures, And the slate he gave him back. "Now, read off the sum total," And Levius read it through — From left to right, not right to left — Nought, two, eight, six, and two 1 So the united ages Of the Patricians stood, When Consul Palmerstonius Vowed they must have new blood.

CATTLE FROM THE NORTH OF EIIROPE.—The gross imports of cattle into Lowestoft barbour last week from Ilusuno, Frederickstadt, and Tonning tDuchy of Sobles w i g ) amounted to 1,024 beasts and 1,298 oxen. The North of Europe Steam Navigation Company's steamer, the City of Norwich, Captain Oliver, and the Tonning, Captain Russell, arrived on Friday ; and the Cumber land, Captain Ricers, followed on Saturday. The Cum berland brought 221 beasts and 220 sheep, and the other vessels having equally large cargoes, the stock was de spatched to town in five special trains, as they bad been consigned, al usual, to metropolitan firm.. A telegra phic message, received on Saturday from Lowestoft, states that a fourth steamer, the Royal Victoria, Capt. R se, was also expected to arrive in time to enable her cargo to be despatched to the metropolitan market. It ii probable, therefore, that the total arrivals will be as heavy as last week. The importation will continue for about six weeks, or longer, but they will be suspended • during the winter months. MONEY MARKET AND COMMERCIAL INTRT.T.TGENCE. I Shr. CITY, Two O'CLOCK. Accounts from Liverpool state that the Cotton 50 Market yesterday closed quietly, but firmly, and 13i prices of all kinds were a shade dearer. The sales St. were estimated at 8,000 bales. The Railway Share Market closed with a very dull appearance, and 25 25 prices were at a slight decline. There was not much alteration i n the rates of St. e xchange for three months bills, drawn upon the 43:- principal cfLies of the Continent, but a slight im -50 provement was apparent on Paris and Italy, and a :20 fractional decline on Holland and Hamburgh. On 10 comparing the price of gold at Paris and the ex- 10 change on London with the English standard, it E appears that that metal is about .37 per cent. e t . dearer in Paris than in London ; but is .12 per 20 cent. higher here than in He.mburgh. The ac- st. counts received from America this morning report 25 a further decline fir the rates of exchange on Lon- St. don, and it is therefore apprehended that the ship- 20 ments of specie, to this country will be conga- 10 • 'erably diminished. It is mentioned, however, that the crisis was past, and the cessation of remit- st. tances may perhaps be only temporary. A further s T arrival of nearly 100,0001. has been announced by st, the Anglo Saxon from Victoria, and ti appears that 1.0 the George Marshall, in addition to the 2,136/. in s t . gold dust, has brought 96,000/. in sovereigns. st. Further imports are daily expected from the at. same quarter, but as this is an unfavourable time of St. the year for quick passages they may come in more 5 2 slowly than is generally imagined. Although the NI exchange on Bombay is 11 per cent. lower, the silver 16 , market is firmer, and it is expected that the Ripon, n. on the 20th inst., will take out about 600,0004 in 3 that metal. 20 11 The English Stock Market opened with a firmer st. appearance, but there has since been renewed flat- St : neein consequence of a few sales. The accounts pc; from America and India have weakened the mar- .12 ket, and the limited speculation in progress is 25 for a decline in values. Very few purchases 25 for investment are now made, and there are Fe l several unfavourable symptoms iu the Continental t o money markets, which weigh upon values.

It is not correct, as stated by the Panama. Star and Herald, that Mr. S. N. Suiivan was dining alone when the deed was committed. He was in the company of another gentleman, whose account of the transaction is as follows : _ " LIMA, AUG. 17, 7 A.M. " The whole of Lima and Callao has been thrown into a state of utter consternation• by a most dastardly attempt to assissinate my friend Mr. Sulivan, in his own house, last evening a little before 7. I fear it is an assassination, for the doctors give no hope of his recovery. We were dining comfortably together when the steward rushed in through the bedroom, followed by the assassin, into the office, calling out ' Thieves !' and upon our jumping up and going towards the door we were met by . the villain, who, without saying a word, placed a blun derbuss close to Mr. Sulivan's stomach and discharged it, and immediately started off the way he came in, with out taking a single article. Mr. Sulivan staggered back into my arms, saying He's killed me.' Three pistol balls were taken out of his stomach and a half-ounce hall was cut out of the fleshy part of his back. As you can judge, we have passed a dreadful night attending• upon the sufferer, preparing bim for the worst , an d doing what was necessary as regards his last wishes in case the wounds are mortal. No reason can be assigne d for the foul deed, for he had no personal enemies, and the general opinion is that it is a political affair of the Vivanco party, at present in arms against the Castilla Government. Several persons have been seized, but it is not yet known whether they were of the party. The servants state that three other men remained in the back passage daring the affair. I have to be thankful that I myself escaped injury most unaccountably, for it the shot bad been made a yard or two off some of the bullets must have touched me. The excitement is natu rally very great here, for after this instance of coldblooded murder no one considers himself safe. It remains to be seen whether this will not be made a Government ques tion between Great Britain and Peru." The gentleman who gives the above account is a merchant of considerable standing in Lima, and had frequently acted as secretary to Mr. Sulivan, with whom he was on very intimate terms.

There were several of Monday's unsold samples of Eng lish wheat on offer here to-day ; but the supply of that ! grain fresh up was limited. Fine dry samples were in L moderate request at full prices. All other qualities moved off slowly at barely late rates. Foreign wheat sold slowly, yet prices were supported. Th s show of samples was tolerably good.' 1 Most kinds of bailey were in steady request, at, full quo- 1 tations. 1 Malt ruled dull, on former terms. Very few homegrown oats were on offer, but the sup ply of foreign was extensive. The trade ruled firm, at very full prices. B eans an d peas were quite as dear as on Monday ; but flour ruled rather heavy. • RAILWAYS._ Closing Pricer. this day aid RJJLWAYB. I 10 Ambg. Nottng. Bost. Eastn.

ROYAL SURREY GARDENS. Last evening a meeting of the creditors of the Royal Surrey Gardens Company, convened by the, committee of shareholders, was held at 23, Cannon-street, ,to con• sider the steps necessary to be taken to protect the mu tual interests of the creditors and shareholders. Mr. Coombes, chairman of the committee of shareholders, occupied the eh:VI.. Mr. Coppock, one of the directors of the company, was present. A statement - of- the lia bilities of the company, prepared by the committee, showed that the debts of the company amounted to 27,8731. 13e. 60., and were made up as follows i—Mort. gage bonds, including 2001. interest, o.7ool.,Messrs. Cox, Biddulph, and Co., bankers, 1,0001., rent 1811. 9e., tuxes, &c., 2051. 155., salaries, including 1,2501. owing to M. Jullien, and also the 5 001. dishonoured check, 1,8701. 12s. 3d. ; money advanced by Messrs. Coppock and Co; since the bankruptcy, 1,0011. lls. 3d., inctud• ing 2281., the Seacole fund ; general creditors on bill.' of exchange, 8,2781. 3s. 10d. ; on Tacconntil; ti63tl. 2s. 2d. The chairman said that there were three classes to deal with—first, the mortgage creditors, to - the -extent of about 14,5001. ; secondly, the general 'creditors, about 12,0001. ; and, lastly, the shareholders; "about 33,0001. making together about 60,0001. The creditors comprised two descriptions—those holding bills to the •eartent of 10,0001., and those who had none, but were owed money for goods they had supplied. On investigating the deed of settlement it was found that, the directors had no power to give bills in the name of the company, and, consequently, it was believed that they were indivi. dually responsible for the 10,0001., so given. If that were so the company would be relieved of a great debt • and then the consideration was what was to be done with the remaining creditors? The plan suggested by the committee was, in the event of their being successful with the bills of exchange, to pay off the other creditors with a composition of 2e. 6d. in the pound, and give them an interest in the gardens to the extent of another 2s. 63. in the pound, which would give thene.sp: in the pound before the shareholders received a farthing. He therefore proposed that the creditors should authorise Mr. Fleming to take counsel's opinion on the liabilities of the directors on the bills of exchange. I C long dia. cussion ensued, in the course of which it was elicited that the committee of shareholders, which included the chairman, Mr. Staff, Mr. Nicholls, Mr. Spetchley, Mr. Clout, Mr. Swan, and Mr. Fleming, held St shares be. tween them. Mr. Coppock, who addressed the meeting, stated that if the creditors and shareholders co-operated with the directors they would all receive 20s. in the and he cal led upon them net to accept the props pound, sition offered. He was the largest shareholder, and his claim against the company as a creditor was for 7001. money lent. He assured the meeting that he would not take a farthing until the creditors were paid In full. A great many statement.' and counter-statements were made, but we refrain from giving them, because a meeting of the shareholders will shortly be called by the directors when their answer to the charges that have been made will be laid before the meeting and the public . lotion for taking counsel's opinion on the liability of th way meeting till after amendment for r e abills adjournmentof of w A and res : the general meeting to be called by the directors; but the meeting broke up without coming to a decision on either. • THE CAPE MAILS.—SOLITHAMPTO/f, Tuesday.—Tbe first mail for th e C a p e c f G oo d Hope under the new contract with th e U n i on Screw Company , oomprising in all 50 bags for Port Natal, Capetown,' St. Helena, &c., were conveyed hence today in , the stesatiship DAae, Captain Strutt.

Lord C. J. Gordon having been sworn, Mr. Sargood said he appeared on behalf of 20 o the amount of u p wards of 8001. These creditors nom tradesmen of Bath, to whom the insolvent was indebted t pr i se d a great variety of tradesmen, including butchers, williners,drapers, wine merchants, and many others. Mr. Sargood then proceeded to examine the insolvent, who in in the course of his replies estimated the amount of his debts, as enumerated in the schedule, at 2,3901. Mr. Sargood pointed out several discrepancies in the evidence of Lord Gordon, and submitted that therefore the peti tion must be dismissed as untrue. His Honour stated his conviction that the objection raised by Mr. Sargood struck at the root of the proceedings. There was no intentional falsehood,, but still he felt.that the petition i was so manifestly, untrue that. be Was bop td to distnisi it.—Dismissed accordingly • . 113 a 31
