rear. General Nicholson was sent out against th e m with his division, and completely defeated them, capturing 12 pieces. It is — believed that the • flee.] assault on the imperial city will not be much longer delayed. Sir CALI Campbell, it is rumoured, has sent no orders to make short work of it, and General Wilson is not the man to retard the execution of such an order a single hem-. "The province of Behar, and the. districts around the cities of Benares, Patna, and Mirze pore are still in an unsettled state, but in all of them the Mohurrum passed without any decided manifestation of insurrection. At Benares, indeed, an imp' egnable fortress has beep erected near Raj Ghat on the bank of the river, commanding the whole city, so that the smallest demonstration could be most effectually quelled. That city is therefore safe. Patnah, too, has continued quiet. That it has remained so is duo entirely to the exertions of Mr. William Taylor, wbo overawed the natives by a judicious course of severity. " Sir Colin Campbell, it is believed, will leave for the north west ie about a month, and, taking up Havelock's force, will open direct communications with Delhi. There are several first rate officers in Calcutta waiting for employ, who will be glad to accompany him . 0 The past fortnight has been one of almost unequalled pressure in the money market, the Bank of Bengal having refused to dis count Court of Directors' bills with more than 60 days to run, or to make and renew loans upon government paper to the other banks. The immedia`e cause of these steps is be lirved to be the crippled position the Benk direc tors find themselves in by having advanced to a large extent upon Company's paper, without re serving a sufficient margin to speculators and others who have left the Bank in the lurch with the paper. not being able to take up the loans or to pay the difference between what it is really worth and the amount advanced upon it by the Bank. We leave our readers to judge of the wisdom and ability which govern the Bank of Bengal, and which has produced such a state of things. We have since beard that two if our local banks, which held a large amount of Court of Directors' bills, finding them inconvertible into cash, applied to the Government to pay them under discount, which has been granted under the special circumstauces,and will,no doubt, afford some rend to the fair-trading public, whose interests have been so ruthlessly sacrificed by the directors of the Bank of Bengal to the spe culators and jobbers in Company's paper. Exchange opened at 2s 21,d for first class six months' sight bills, and, in consequence of the pressure in the money market, advanced to 23 311, but closes a trifle easier. Tho Calcutta Englishman of the 9th September makes the following somewhat gloomy observ,a tions "We yesterday published news from Delhi to the 2Gth of August, by which it will be seen that Delhi still holds out, and that no positive date can yet be fixed for its reduction. With regard to other districts, so far from peace and good order being re , established, disorder and rebellion have extended to provinces which in June were perfectly tranquil. The greater part of Behar and the south-western frontier of Bengal are in confusion, and the im portant district of Goruckpore has been abandoned by the order of this Government. The garrison of Lucknow has not been relieved, and it appears unlikely that our troops can reach it before the end of this month The mutineers and insurgents, though contemptible in the field, are so numerous as to throw great difficulties in the wayof an advan cing force and the season in which every stream is overflowing and the country almost impassable is an additional obstacle to military operations. At this season, too, the exposure of a campaign inevitably produces much sickness, and our European soldiers have suffered severely from it, We expect some reinforcements during the present month, and by the end of October we may reasonably hope for the arrival of a force sufficient to put down rebellion in these provinces. Its fate in Upper India muss be decided by troops sent up the Indus and the Pun jaule levies. Order and obedience may then indeed be restored, and an entire new system adopted, whether military or civil. It is too soon to specu late upon the course that ought to be or will be pursued ; at present it is sufficient to record events which follow in such rapid succession, and which must ultimately determine the measures to be adopt( d. " We observe that the home authorities boast of the alight depreciation which the rebellion has caused in Government securities.. In the revolted eietricts Company's paper for the last three months has been sold at 50 to 85 per cent. dis count ! This, however, affords no criterion of public opinion, as much so offered may either have been plundered from its rightful owners, or been the property of these in open rebellion, to whom it was valueless. But here at the seat of Govern ment, and the centre of money transactions, the fall has been steady and considerable. Five per cent. paper has been sold at 12, and four per cent. paper at 2.1 per cent. discouna and no considerable sum could be disposed of even at a much lower rate. "The Bank of Bengal last week issued a circular to the other local banks, announcing that the directors have resolved upon declining to make any loans or opening cash credits on , deposit of Company's paper, and that all appli;ations for renewal of existing loans or cash credits must be submitted for the special consideration of tne directors. " This measure, at a moment when the approach ing Doorgah Pocjah hollidays naturally create an increased call for accommodation, will be product ive of serious inconvenience, and may be attended with disastrous consequences to the mercantile community and to trade in general. " The Bank of Bengal ought to have drawn in its horns the day after the news of the Delhi massacre arrived. But the geverntnent directors have acted like inexperienced navigators, who trust they can carry sail through what they deem and assert to be a mere passing squall, while more experienced seamen have already made all snug in expectation of the coming hurricane." MADRAS. We have received files of the Madras Atheneum to the 12th of September inclusive. The Madras Presidency was perfectly tranquil. THE NEWS FRCM CA.WNPOitE AND LUCKNOW. these took effect, but we advanced notwithstand ing. A 4 the enemy's infantry retired, a shout was got up on our side, the ll'ghlandera rushed on, and carried their right battery : the Fusiliers went far to the ti;tht and drove back their Cavalry and Infantry, but our left being on heavier ground, could not get on rapidly enough to seize any of the guns there, all of which were horsed. The Cavalry had so surrounded us, that the enemy's ronnd shot went over our heads, and in amongst them. We only got two guns, but we must hive punished the rebels severely, our 24 pounder play ing amongst them as they retired through the Gunj We now rested for a couple of houn, and then retired on Mun,gawar ; left that place early the following morning, and all crossed the Ganges by evening. This is the history of our fruitless attempt to re lieve Lucknow, and I fear our retirement will courbalance all the good effects of beating the enemy four times. Our force was cer'ainly very, very small, but it is wonderful what a few deter mined Englishmen can do. The more I see cf them the more confidence I feel in their invincibility. Fancy, all the damage the enemy's cavalry did us, was to cut off the beads of two unfortunate, coolies, laden with bread and tobacco. I hear there is a good deal of fighting among the Oude Talookars. A Moulvie, who deserved to be hanged long ago, reigned at Fyzabad for one day, and poor Colonel Goldney's Sheristadar was made Dewan. Many of our Thanadars and Omlah were traitors as well as the Sepoys, but they will all get their deserts ere long. We have got into a house here, but I am so accustomed to sleep with my clothes on, that I feel little inclination to take them off. From the 11th till.the evening of the 14th, I lived on com missariat biscuit, rum and one piece of cold meat. Thf're has been a great deal of cholera here, but it is abating. 18th August —Our ninth action came Off the day before yesterday at Bithoo-, when the enemy, principally Sepoys of the 34 - h, 42nd, and 38th Regiments, numbJsring between 3,000 and 4 ; 000, with two guns, had taken up a position in front of Bithoor, or rather a village to the west of it. Their position was naturally one of the strongest that mild be, but instead of making a defence in the rear, they made it in front of the bridge. Our right was towards the Ganges, an.; our left near a deep nulleb, to the left of which were houses and high ground. The space in front was tolerably clear, and the enemy oJcupi4d some topes and gardens and a village on their left. The road took a sudden turn to the left, where the enem)'a guns were placed. The rebels opened their guns on us, and some of their cavalry and infantry circled round our left ; we sent a few shots am -nn them, and they bolted. Our force then deployed into line, and on getting within GOO yards commenced to play on the topes occupied by the Pandies. A heavy fire was kept up by us for some time with our guns. The sharp crack of the musket and soft smooth sound of the Enfield Bale now b.!gau. On our men went and drove the enemy out of the gardens, topes and villages to the right. A few deter mined Jacks made a brave stand near the bridge, and others of them were bayoneted in the village. Our fellows were too tired to chase them, the day being very hot, and we had had a march of about 12 miles. The most eeraordinary thing is, that the enemy did not defend the rising ground and houses on . the south side of the ravine. They went right away, and we afLer them as fast as the guns could go; much time of course was lost in crossing the bridge, and we saw little more of them. The road was lined with houses and gardens, surrounded with muclembankments, and suddenly an attack was made from behind these mud walls on our baggage. A little of it was lost, and several of the camp followers killed. Some Sowars also rushed down at some stragglers behind the rear guard, and cut up four or five of them. The coolies, of course, bolted, and the blackguard villagers came and plundered the propery. There was not much lost, but some officers lost all they took with them We bivouacked, during the night to the scuth of the city. As it was found impossible to take the heavy guns on to Sheoroj pore, we returned here yesterday, having lost, I believe, about 14 'killed and 30 wounded. We took the two guns, and must have killed a larga number of the enemy; but it was impossible to tell the number of their killed, as the nullah was quite close to them, and I know from experience they make use of all dodges, the water among the rest, to conceal their dead. _ We have news of the Lueknow people up to the 14th inst. They are still holding out bravely, eLd the enemy's fire said to be much s!ackened. Another military correspondent writes on Aug. 6:— On the 4th, the cavalry were, at a moment's notice, ordered to reconoi•re for the enemy, and we marched on to Busserat G urj, where we found them. They were again throwing up a breastwork across the entrance, and as we came up, fired upon us We, of course, retired, but just as we reached the camp, we fund the column ready to advance. Well, back we went again, until we came to Unna,where we bivouacked in a tope of tree 3 for the night. The order was given to march at four am. Without sound of trumpet, all get up at three a In , and as day dawned we were in full march. Busserat Gunj, where we fought before, is about five miles from Unnao, and nine from this place. The morning was a vary dreary one ; rain fell in torrents, thunder pealed over cur heads, and the light ning flash d along the horiz3n. The remains of the battle of Unnao, oar severest action, were lying in flout of us, and on we went confident in our strength. We advanced beyond the village, and on the right of the road, within 600 or 700 yards of the place, I and another galloped up and saw the fellows swa-ming in the Gunj ; the noise they made screaming was hellish. They kept firing musketry and a fee , round shot up at us while our light guns and part of the Infantry moved through the fields to the right that they might take the enemy as he crossed the road. way across the Jheel. The enemy was evidently taken by sur prise, and I think at first imeg7ned that we were only a reconnoitering party. At last our guns opened on the Gunj, and at the villages to the north, one shot from our 24-pounder struck the breastwork about a foot from the top, sent the mud flying in all directions, and went down the street, carrying swift destruction to all in its path. Oar shells a'so committed great havoc on the flying enemy, and I never saw such horrid wounds as they died of ; some were literally torn to pieces, some had been dragged away-a short distance and these left. Many bodies I have no doubt, were thrown into the Jheel. In none of our actions have I seen so many bodies lying about the field .14Tu AUGUST —We have lately had very hard and not very fruitfal work (writes a Cawnpore corres pondent of the Englishman). After our second retirement horn Busserat Gunj, we lay at Munga war for four or five days, when on the 11th the order for the whole force to advance was given, but we knew not where we were going, or how long we were to be away. Well, off we started along that eternal road to Lucknow ; at Unnao we met the enemy's advanced picquet, and on going beyond that place, saw others of their Cavalry collecting from the Unnao field of battle, the broken gun carriages and guns. They made off on our advanc ing, and we went on about 2- miles ahead of the Infantry, until we got a good look at the enemy's new position, Their Cavalry, collected in cur front, and matchlock-men opened fire on our right. We were now diroctQd to retire slowly, and got back to Unnao after dusk, then sent out our picquets, and went dinnerleßs to bed on the wet ground. As the sun got up, and we approached the enemy again, our spirits rose also : it was a clear bright morning when the halt was sounded. We had crossed the broad plain on which Unnao was fought, and about 1,000 yards ahead, the enemy occupied a position of nearly a mile in length. They had five or six guns well placed, and sheltered by breastwork, the infantry in topes and houses and behind walls, and cavalry in numbers on each flunk. We deploy-id on the open maidaun and advanced in echellon from the right. Their guns fist gave us round shot, then shell, grape, eanister, and shrapnel; the fire was the heaviest I have been under, and considering that we had not the slightest shelter, it was extraordinary how little damage they did. The fact is, most of their round shot passed over our beads: we were so near. The canister and shrapnel also were too high, but of course some of The Gunj was immediately evacuate', not being, as for• merly, occupied by their infantry. The advance post of our force got across the Jheel by the road ; we could not go round it, but by the time the cavalry reached the village, the enetry's guns posted to the right of the road amongst the villages commenced to play upon us. They, however, made bad practice, most of their shot passing over our heads. On we went, clearirg out the enemy from the villages on both sides of the road, but principally on de right. Their guns being horse', retired and fired a' us ; and as all the villages ab6ut were occupied by their troops, infantry or ca%alry, we could not make a dash at them. The battle was very well gone through by ns, and very well conceived by them Our guns played on the villages to the right of the road and greatly cleared them for the infantry; but the great body of the enemy were encomped on a plain bey , nd the vil lages, where we breakfasted after our good morning's work There was cne fine, large, red tent bola ging to Nuw h Ally or some big-wig. The enemy's force is estimated at 13,0:0 Infantry, and 1,000 cavalry—it is said they had twelve guns, but I think they had only eight in action, and of these we took two. • After this splendid affair, the order was given to retire, much to our surprise. It is a thousand pities we cannot go on ; there is no doubt a large force against us, and cholera carries off its portion►daily. I cannot tell the exact number of our loss in tbis last action, but I believe we had only two killed, and 15 to 20 wounded. I felt, as every one must have felt, quite done up, for we were 30 hours in the saddle, with only a break of five or six hours for sleep ; but there is no use of talking of fatigue or hardships, for every ono in camp has a good share of these. THE lti ORTHERN TIMES. well, and the troops in the highest spirits. The companies of Stith Artillery and the Muzbee Pioneers, which had lately joined, are doing good service. At Rawul Pindee it has been found necessary to take further measures wi;l2 the two remaining companies of the 14 h Regt. N I. which had already been disarmed ; and Mr. Thornton, the commissioner, reports by electric telegraph that they have been safely lodged in the jail at that place. Contrary to all expectations, the 26th mutineers, instead of making for the ferries on the Sutltj are ascertained to have gone up the left bank of the Ravee, which they attempted to cross yesterday, after a march of nearly 40 miles. It is surmis©d that they are making for the Jummoo Territories, and if so, in all probability, few or none of them will escape capture. The hue and cry has been raised, rewards have been offered, and there is every reason to hope that the 26th will share the same fate with the 9.h Light Cavalry and 46th N I. mutineers. At Mooltan 1 Naik and 9 sepoys of the 69th Regiment N I. have been tried, convicted of mutiny, and sentenced to death, and blown away from the guns. A body of 500 picked men, and most of them old and trained soldiers, fully armed and equipped are to marsh from Lahore to-day, en route to join General Van Cortlandt, under whom they are to be employed on the police duties of the Sirsa, Hansi, and Hisser districts.

Six are reported to have " gone away" without medical certificates, or, as it might be said in sporting phrase, '• stole away " Of these five were on the General Staff, and at their heads we find Colonels Congreve and Curzon, on whose " noble service in the field" our cotemporary of the Bengal Hurkaru founded his complaint against the wrong done to them by the appointment of Co!onel Lugard as Adjutant General of H.M. forces. The mutineers of the 26th Bengal Native In fantry, who •fled from Meean Meer oa the 30th ult. up the left bank of the It?.vee, were almost entirely des'royed on the Ist inst some forty miles above Lahore . . About 500 of them had been killed, drowned, captured, executed, or otherwise disposed of, and this is supposed to have been nearly the full number of those who mutinied. September 13. (By Bombay telegraph) Earlier bulletins and Lahore dates from the 29th to 30th. General Nicholson's loss on the 25th was 17 killed and wounded. Took 13 guns. Lieut. Gabbett has since died of his wounds. Lieut. Elkington and Dr. Ireland are dangerously wounded. Mutineers in force attacked our pesi tion on the 26th, but made no impression and suf fered considerably. Our force is elated at the prospect of active operations against the city. We are clearing the ground and forming trenches for advance. On the 29th August some of the enemy's breastworks were taken eta rush with a loss of two men. The 51st Native Infantry at Rosh swat broke out on the 28th ultimo. They tried to seize the arms of a new Sikh Regiment, but were routed and fled. They are nearly all accounted for, and the balance brought in by police and vil lagers. Authentic intelligence has been received at Lahore having evacuated Herat. Lahore Extra of Sept. 3rd —No late news from Deihi, supposed owing to heavy rain on the 31st. Reported at Delhi that 22 carts left the city for Rewarrec with families of residents, and that numbers were leaving the place daily. The remainder of H M.'s 89th had arrived at Bombay. LIVERPOOL, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 1857. as Adjutant General of her Majesty's for yes. News from Cawnpore to the 29 . h has arrived, and is rather cheering as regards Lucknow. On the 30th, Outram left Benares .with a large body of troops for Cawnpore. We have just learned that her Majesty's 93rd, from England and Cape, arrived at Mauritius, in steamer Mauritius, and were to proceed direct to Calcutta. Extract of a letter from Allahabad, dated 3rd September Sir J111:103 Outram arrived here to-day, and proceeded up the Ganges with three steamers, to attack a stockade twelve miles distant." A private letter from Cawnpore received yesterday, mentions that further intelligence had been re ceived from the garrison at Lucknow, stating that they were quite well and be trty, and had no appre hensions whatever. They made another sortie, took and spiked two guns which had annoyed them greatly, and succeeded in securing lots .of provisions, The King of Oude's health is giving way under the strictness of his imprisonment, an i the anxiety of mind under which he naturally labours. Hie family are in great affliction, as they entertain fears for his life. A letter has been received from Agra, which reports that Mr. J. O'B. Tandy has been killed in a skirmish in the district. A telegraphic despatch from General Neill, re ports, " that the besieged at Lucknow undermined a house in which a number of G. z.es were located, who had given great trouble, and blew the whole of them into the air The garrison sallied out, spiked the 24-pounder, which had greatly annoyed them. took a number of bullocks, and brought them into their entrenchments. Killed at Cawnpore, Ensign Evelyn Chas. Hill of H. M. 32nd Regt., son of George Hill, Esq., late of Calcutta. Also killed at Cawnpore, Mary, the wife of Evelyn Charles Hill, Esq., of H. M. 32nd Regt The Mofussillite has the following : Authentic intelligence hat reached us that Ghose Mho med Khan, of Secundra Rao, at the head of 400 sowers and 200 infantry, has taken possession of Coel and Allygurh, and proclaimed himself soubehdar for the King of Delhi of the country between those towns and Allaha bad. He is collecting the revenue due to our government, and exercising other preregativet of royalty, including the levy of a tax upon the people of Coel, who heartily wish for the appearance of the Britibh troops to rid the district of the usurper and his rabble. No less than thirty-two General and field Officers serving with the Bengal army are known to have died or been killed since the publication of the last Army List on the 15:.h of April, viz.:— Generals the Hon. George Anson ; Lieutenant-General C. R. Skardon ; Major Generals Sir H. 31 Wheeler, and Sir H. Barnard; Colonels D. R. %life.; H. Sibbald, J. H. Handscomb, Goldie, Sir H. M Lawrence, A. Jack, C. G.

Townsend retired. To the long list of names already published of officers wounded before Delhi, are new to be added those of Lieutenant Colonel Seaton, 35th N. 1., and Drought 60th N. 1., the former seriously and the later slightly. A Benares letter of the 211. h ult. informs the Englishman, that an engagement between the Croorkhas from Gorruekpore and three or four Muasulmans took place north of Az;me ° uth on the 19. h idem. Three hundred were killed and wounded, after a severe contest. The report that Sir Jatnes Outram delayed the marching of the European troops sent on to join He velock's force is contradicted by the Ilurkaru. The Phenix states that cholera has been raging in General Havelosk's camp. Allehabad letters which appear in our Bengal contemporaries mention that a Hindu and a Mug sulman Golundauze, found filling their guns with mud and bricks, were hanged on the 25th ultimo ; that a fight between about 3,000 rebels and one of our gun boats had occurred at a fort between Allahabad and Cawnpore in which four or five of our people were wounded, and one hundred of the mutineers were slaughtered ; and that the gun boats returned to Allahabad without attacking the fort, as our force was too small, consisting as it did of only 29 seamen, 20 Madras Fusiliers, and 14 Seikhs . The Englishman mentions that on the withdrawal of the British from the district of Gurrockpore, the standard of the Prophet was planted, and the, place taken possession of in the name of the King of Oude. A Patna correspondent of the some journal writing on the 24th, mentions that Mr. Samuelle, the Commissioner, is very conciliatory in his man ner towards the Mahomedans; that the latter are apparently pleased, but maturing their plots; and that the Deputy-Commissioner Ameer Ali, is closely watched by the residents. A Cawnpore correspondent of the Phoenix, writ ing on the 23rd ultimo states that the rebels have thrown up a battery on the Oude side of the Gangs, opposite to Cawnpore. Calcutta, Bth and 9th Sept.—A. report reached us yesterday that a force is about to be sent to Assam, in consequence of some apprehensions entertained by the authorities there. We are glad to hear that the Commander-in-Chief is convalescent. He has had an attack of intermittent fever. Dinapore is all quiet. The fortifications of the Opium Godown and the European barracks are progressing rapidly every day. A letter from Raneegunge says that Capt. George Oaltts, with a detachment of Sikhs and Madrasses, has started for Manbhoom, where budmushes are plundering. A letter from the Government House at Calcutta, signed by Mr. Talbot, says : The substance of the information, however painful its character, has been given immediately after its receipt, except where there has been good reascn to ikubt its authenticity or accuracy. Such cases, especially cases in which there have been manifest mistakes or confusion of names, have been frequent ; in many instances the reports have been based on mere hearsay, and have proved very incorrect, and in some they have been altogether without foundation. Tho General is of opinion that no useful end, and certainly no real belief to the agDnising suspense endured by relatives and friends would be attained by publishing communications to the truth of which any reasorable doubt attached But although such reports will not be made public where they appear fairly doubtful, I am to add that any inquiries addressed to me privately will, as heretofore, be immediately replied to by the communication of whatever information may have reached the Governor-General respecting the persons to whom they reer, and of the grounds upon which the infor mation rests.

Too FAST.—John Muirhead, a gentlemanly-looking person, was charged with being drunk, and with assault ing the police. Officer 31, of 13irkenhead:foree, said—At seven o'clock the previous night, ho was turning the corner of South John-street, when the prisoner rushed against him with such violence as to knock him against the shutters of a shop, and he felt sore since in conse quence of the shock. Officer 559, said the prisoner knocked him violently against the shutters. He was drunk at the time, and running with violent fury against all whom he met. The prisoner said he was in a great hurry. but denied having done anything wrong inten tionally---it was a pure accident.. lie was fined £1 and costs. vv AN UNFORTUNATF.—WiIIiam Dutton, aged 19, was charged with having stolen a blue silk dress value £6. Mrs. Gorcland, of No. 3, Gloucester-place, Low-hill, stated that on Monday evening the prisoner called on her, and stated that Mr. Kirby, her son in-law, sent him to say that the carriage was waiting at the end of the street for her. She requested him to carry a box and parcel to the carriage for her daughter. He delivered the box at the carriage, but not the paieel, which contained the dress in question, but she did not see the prisoner after until he was in custody. Police•efucer 476 was called into the pawnshop of Mr. Hutchinson, Copperas-hill, where the prisoner was offering the dress for pawn, on Thursday evening. It appeared that the prisoner was formerly in a good position in society, but had fallen by misconduct to a low ebb. He pleaded guilty to the charge, and was sentenced to three months' hard labour. PLUNDER OF COTT. , :i —John Fe z.3im ins, John Mulhol- land, and Thomas Walsh, was charged with having stolen two bales of cotton, value .430, the property of Messrs. Philpot and White, from Messrs. Carnes's warehouse, Lightbody-street. Mr. Cough gave as much evidence as sufficed to have the prisoners remanded, in order to have the evidence perfect, and the prisoners were retnanded accordingly. TRANSFER or A For:T.—James Potter and William Tynan were charged by Mr. George Brumby, car owner, of 125. Great Oxford-street North, with having stolen a pony from him, value £6. Mr. Bruck defended the prisoner Potter. Mr. Brumby said the prisoners called on him the r revious day and asked him to look at a horse that was for sale at the Barracks, in Islington. He refused to go, when they asked him to allow Crosby, his foreman, to go, and he replied he could go. Subsequently the prisoner called on him and asked if he would sell a pony, but he declined. However, it appeared that, after the interview, the prisoners went to a stable of his in Fox street, took the pony, and said it to James Godfrey, of Hatton-garden, for £3 10s. Several witnesses were examined to prove the case, and all admitted (on cross examination by Mr. Bluck) that Tynan was the chief actor in the affair, and that he received the money. Po' ter accompanying all through. Mr. Bluck confidently submitted that his client ought to be discharged ; but His Worship said he would send both before a jury, and they were sent for trial. You MU,T LOCK ME UP I—James Crighton was charged under the following circumstances:—On Thursday night he went to Preacot.street Bridewell and insisted on being locked up• The officer refused, as there was no charge against him. The prisoner theta ran into the street and commenced knocking furiously at the doors of the houses in th locality, and, as he refused to desist, he was really locked up. He was find ss. CHILD DasErrioN.—A woman, named Mary Moodie, was charged with having deserted her chill, a " wee thing," seven months old. The poor little creature seemed to have been very badly treated, and as the case was proved by come witnesses, the woman was sent to gaol for one month. The child was ordered to be taken care of. PARTEIENON, GREAT CHARLOTTE -STREET, —Mr. Patterson, the attorney for the prosecution of the above house (a report has already appeared in our paper, of the facts), was in attendance, when the proprietor, John George Stoll, appeared with his attorney, Mr. Henry, to tender bail to the warrant. The recognisance of the defendant in £l,OOO was eteered into, fer his appearance at the assizes, to meet any bill of indictment that may be preferred against him. A FORTUNE-TELLER.- 7 4 short time since we published the details of a fortune-telling case, in which several females had been duped, by a man who pretended to tell fortunes. To-day we have to record the exploits of a female professor of the "black art." A little, ugly, half black-faced woman, named Catherine Foster, who resides at Mayeoek-street, Birkenhead, was brought up by detec tive officer M'Culloch, charged with haring obtained goods from various young females, on pretence of "telling their fortunes." The chief facts of the case were as follows :—The prisoner is in the habit of going about the town selling small jewellery, combs, and other things. Although this was nominally her "trade," fortune-telling seemed to be her business. The following specimen of her modes operandi, may be taken as an illustration of the whole. Mary M'Cubbin, a native of Dumfries, an int,resting-looking and artless girl, who might serve as a model for a portrait of Highland Mary, No. 2, stated that she was an upper servant in a first class house in Canning-street ; she gave the prisoner two dresses and a petticoat. Mr. Mansfield; What did yon give them to her for ? The witness answered with great simplicity, and a captivating smite, showing her ivory teeth to great advantage, and adding, an additional,rosy hue to her cheeks, why, sir, to do me a charm. (Loud laughter.) She was to charm me. (Renewed laughter.) Mr. Clough Was it not to charm your lover to marry you ? Poor Miss Mary M'Cubbin drew a sigh that must have come at the rate of 72 miles an hour through the auorta of her hear', as she sighed like an 2Eolian harp —yes, sir. The pour simple, verdant girl. then went on to tell a story about how the wily prisoner induct(' her to give the dresses and the undergarments. She came back and said the charmwould not do without some male attire. The poor girl expressed herd inability to furnish anything iu that line, when the prisoner proposed to relieve her by saying a suit of the masers best clothes would answer her put' pose very well. Now, Miss Mary M'Cubbin, although very verdant, was strictly ho.iest, and even at the risk of losing her young love-yer by the patent charms of the prisoner, she refused to comply. The prisoner said she was not very particular as regar led the clothes, the oldest clothes the master had would do. The request was still refused, and the wisoncr said she would manage to do without them, and went away promising to call on the next Saturday and make all right. She never called, however. Mr. Mansfield: And what did you do then? Girl : Why, I told the In:stress. (Loud laughter.) Mr. Clough : I dare say she could tell your fortune better than the prisoner? Girl : I'm thinking so, sir. (Laughter.) Mr. Mansfield : Well, you must be a silly, foolish girl, to think this woman could tell your fortune better than yourself. The officer said he had several other cases against the prisoner, but had not time to get up the wit nesses. Ile found a valuable ruffled shirt with the prisoner, thatlwas no doubt the property of some gentle man, obtain , d evidently from some servant girl, as a portion of the male attire which the prisoner alleged to be essential to her legerdemain and charming of lo''e-yers. She was remanded for a week. THE NEWS FROM DELHI. LAHORE, Is . r AUGUST —There were no telegraphic messages from the camp before Delhi yesterday. Private letters of the 29th ultimo state all to be LATEST POINTS OF NEWS. The Calcutta Englishman says :—A. report has reached us that General Havelock has had another encounter with the rads at Bithoor and taken thirteen guns, and the Nana is said to be wounded and taken prisoner. We hope this will prove true, but cannot vouch for its authenticity. We have been asked wllPthcr it is really proposed to send the 70th Bengal regiment to China We cannot answer this question, but if it is to be done, the sooner the better. We receive almost daily reports which we suppress, because it is impossible to authenticate them, and we are unwilling to give needless Hain to friends and relatives. The Ac countant-General warns the public against pur chasing certain Government Securities, amounting to three lakha and three hundred rupees, which stand in the name of that archfiend Nana Sahib. It appears that the scoundrel has managed to sell out all the Government promissory netts which stood in the name of the the Rajee Roo. The Madras A thenceum has a telegraphic message from Bombay, of September H, which says—The steamer England, from Cape, with a wing of h er Majesty's 89th arrived at Bombay to-day. The other wing and her Majesty's 95th expected imme diately. Colonel Lugard has been called from Bombay to Calcutta by Sir Colin Campbell, to act BEPORI MR.

The magistrates severely commented on persons soiling such fish, which might do an inarner.se irjuty to the health of the town ; and, as a warning 6o otheas,m]st be severly punished. She was fiord 56, including cos's. CAUTION TO BOYS USING FIEE-ARM..—Through the indefatigable ou.r.ions of those viazilantp,rlice-cfficers Nos 278, 76, and 697, several little boys were et:rammed for having discharged fire-arms, namely, tiny little brass cannons, in the public street?. Each of the officers in the cases Ewore to the offence, and the magistrates, after duly cautioning the juveniles not ?gain to be guilty of such an offence, as touching fire-arms or gunpawd.r, discharged all the cases. THE POLICR AND THE FAST DAY —Yes'erday a num ber of the publicans of the town were summoned by the police for having, contrary to the Act of Parliament, ke, t th it houses open for the sa'e of spirits on the day of humiliation and fasting, and for permitting drunkenness in their houses. This day should have been observed by the pu'aiicans the s:sue as the sabbath, but front the defences set up in each c se it would appear ,hat this was not generally unders'ood, and instead of closing their houses at eleven o'c'euc on that night th y kept them open until twelve o'clock, as is usual en the Wenesday night, th same as on other nights in the week. The magis'rate, in several of the cases, explained it as his opinion that such a mistake might have occurred, but still it was the duty of all to obey the law, bad as the law might be, while it was in exi4tetc-, and expressed a hope that before long it would be alter , d. For his part, he did not fast on. the day, and therefore could nut expect others to do so. On th t point he could say a greet, deal, but his duty was to hear the cases before him, and he thought the excuse of having no knowledge that it was wrong to be very reasonable, and dismissed the f Rowing cases : Godlrey Jones, of Stanhope-street; William Hanson, of Prussia-street ; William Mason, St. Vincent-street; John Horton, Gresn'and-street ; William Kelsbaw, Shaves brow ; Joseph Walmsley, Brunswick-road Thomas Meek, St. James '- street ; Richard H argreaves, of Islington; John of G.e t Crosshall-street ; and Jam s Russell, of Charles-street. In Vie case of James Shaw, of Scotlaul. road, it was proved that ho had willfuly per mitted drunkenness and disorderly conduct in his house, and haling been before fined, was mulct with the penalty of ten shillings and costa. Several cas a against beer hou-e keepers were also dismissed, for the same reasons. SLNDAY TRADING.—no following publicans were sum moned for trading on the Sunday, but as the police failed to prove the cases, thy were discharged :—Edward Snake, Belle-street, William N )dwell, Mersey-street, but Renaldo Chapel, of Regent-street was fined 2s. including costs. A number of beer-sellers was also . caut i oned for similar offences, and two eases were dimmed, pr fined in very mitigated penaltif 1. DISGRACEFUL SCENE 'AT THE .04C EX HIBITION.
