a little too much prejudice, in favour of the old Bengal system, may still linger among men in office It may still be thought that the old system was good, but failed because improperly carried on, as perchance owing to some accidental spirit of disaffection or fanaticism, that will work itself out and is not likely to trouble us again. We have heard men speak thus of t h e present c isis. Or as a religious ferment that must work kelt' out as suddenly al it ,first appeared. We do trust that their eyes are opt ned to the full extent of the gigantic evi!s a disaffec'ed untrustworthy Native Army can wake, and incleei hare waked, in this country. Let no Sepoy ever be trusted agstin ; or, it trusted, let it be only so far that a European ssldier, with a bayonet in his hand, can look after him The system under which the Bengal army has existed, is rotten to the care : its disease is h.- curable, let no man try to renovate or re-establish it. No ci - eibt when driven out of Delhi and one or two strongholds, that the various bands of mutineers seem inclined to defend, the greater part of those that escape will take refuge in Oude, and there will be enacted the last (we trust it may come soon) scene of this strange eventful history. The Punjab, though full of discontented soldiery and men bred to the practice of arms frmn their youth, educated in an a , moephare of political disturbance, war and vio'ence, was calmed in six months, by the energetic manner in which the disarming order was carried cut. So effectaslly was this done, that in many places, the beasts of the field begin absolutely to encroach on the limits tf civilized men, and the deer of the jut gle might be seen grazing in the newly rising crops Let a similar plan be carried out throughout India. We are aware that the present disturbance has been caused not by armed villagers, but by Sepoys ; no matter, we say, disarm the whole—Sepoye as well as peasants. It may appear a ggantie labour, but it you'd not prove so. Sueh men as Sir H, Lawrence and Sir H. Wheeler, with a regiment of European Cavalry, and one of Irfentry, • and a troop cf Horse Artillery, would disarm the popula tion of a hole 1 rov nce, Sepoys and all, in a month o• two. The operation might be carried out in different provinces at the same time, and if this is done, with God's blessirg, by the . end of .he next cold weather, aye and before it, India wilt be at rest. It may heave for a time with a swell of indgnation like the ocean after a storm, but the motion will hs a gentle one, compared with the fury of • the tempest that is rsgirg, and will ma , k merely the s lent and gradual subsiding of excitement and passion. CALCUTTA GOVERNMENT DESPATCHES I The Calcutta Government had furnished the following ,I• infor ma ti on t o t h e j ourna l s of that city : 1 AGRA, SEPTEMBF R 9rn.

The latest I authentic news from th e Ch um b u l , up to the Bth of September is, that the mutinous Infantry. Cavalry, and guns had not yet cro‘Fed—that their advanced guard con tinues at Dholpore, with two guns ; that at prw.ent, of the two streams between Agra and the Chumbul, nne is cer ,tainly unfavourable, and that the boats have been destroyed. BENARP, &pr. 16-u. Letters from Major Lumaden, at Candahar, on the 13th of August, reoort that his party was all well and was well treated, and that Herat had been completely evacuated by the Persians. " All well in the Bangor Fort on the 4-h September. The daks from Rewah, of the 14th ; from Dumoh, of the sth; and from Nagpore, of the 11th, were received at Mirzapore on the morning of the 16ch, all right. The last letter from Captain Osborne of the 121, from Rewah, reports that all was quiet. At Nagpore the litkurram has passed off, Hyderabad most peaceful " LUCKNOW. A letter from General Outram, dated Kurreem, 11th September, states, " I have just received a note from Cawn pore of this date, front which I extract the following : • We had very good news from Lunkno w yesterday, a fierce tcannonade at gun-fire, and towards noon the enemy ex pleded amine; but by soma mi=chance it went off just :under the feet of those advancing to atiack, killing, it ie said, nearly 400. The garrison then made a sortie, which ,ccmpleted their discomfiture.' " CAWNPORE AND LIICKNO`iv. A letter, dated Cawnpore the 3rd Sept , contains the following :—" The ne we •we have from Lucknow is vary 'good : we have often communication with them. A man ;came in yesterday; they are all as jolly as they can be under the circumstances; they appear to have plenty to eat, though no luxuries. Fighting goes on daily of course, but there is no chance of a further assault, as the niggers got such a lesson last time. I hope we shall relieve them , beLre the.2sth, certainly.. We have now, I should th'nk, 1,500 Europeans. The cavalry only numbsrs 80, but is 'to be made up to 100. We have a battery of horse and one of FoJt Artillery, and six 24-pounders drawn :by elephsntg, besides soma mortars ; and when the 90th and 5 h join us, as they will about the 12 h !or 15th, we shall be able to give the blackguards 'something they do not expect. I (eel, and indeed we all feel, very hopeful of Lncknow. The people are gradually turning towards us; they begin to see it is only a Ma- Itommedan affair, which would not suit them. A Mr. and.hlrs. Probyn and two children came in two days ago from Futtobghur, and also a Mr. Klmondstone ; they have been staying with a man in Oude by name Harder Bax, who brought them in himself, and is ready to join no whenever we make a movement into R3hilcund. He says 'that nearly all the llindoos will join us willingly, when they see us advancing " A letter from Havelock's camp 'states that two of the _mutineer regiments have sent in to the General, offering to lay down tit- it arms if their lives were spared ; the reply was, that no over t ures from any rebels could be entertained, but that if they gave ocular demonstration of their Sincerity, that is by fighting their brother mutineers, their case would be taken into consideration. One of these repentant regiments is supposed to be the 22nd N 1., 'who generously offered to ass et their caws from tho the Government Treasury at Fyzsbaci, and who, it will be remembered, spared their officers. The Ghoorkhae being en one side and the Europeans on the other, with the King, and Ally Nock) , Khan not coming up as was promised and 'fully expected long ere this, they appear to hive taken a sudden fit of loyalty again, as they now find that their 'visions of double psy and two hundred bighas of land in Oude promised to each Sepoy, has been merely figurative ; attempting to grasp these, they have lost the Company's 'regular pay and batta." The following was an intercepted letter to the Barrackpze Brigade, and more particularly addressed to ono regiment there Oh! ye warriors greet ing! We expected great things from you; you have, how ever deceived us ; we consider you as the nose of the army, but you gave up your arms without fighting; however, it is not too late to retrieve your characters ; it is true you have no arm., but hasten up, and Rata will give you arms ; you will, each Sepoy, get 12 rupees per month, and 200 bighas of land The King of Delhi has ordained that no More cows shall be killed in the land ; should any one intercept this messenge-, curses will be upon his head ; if a Mahomedan he will cat pig, if a Hindoo he will eat cow; the King of Delhi sends salaams, d says the enemy outside the walls number ten thousand ; after we have conquered them, we will coma to Calcutta, to try if the Yeringhee-'can fight." The messenger wan, however, seized by an officer of the 70th N. I , and was hanged ; no doubt heavy curses are on the Feringhee's head— what is he to eat, for he has, I suppose, no objection either to pig or cow. D INAP ORE. A. correspondent, writing on the 11th September, says : "I wrote you last from Dinapore, where we landed Captain Toogeed, whe was dangerously ill ; weighed and proceeded,' as the 1:g has it. At Beier there ace abut two hunered Sikhs, a few of whom have horses, and are to be mounted ; there are also two rmall guns—regular plaything 4; one of native make, and likely to do more harm to the ginner who attempts to fire it than to the enemy Reached Ghazeepore on the Bth, end took in all the coal we cou 7 d get—only 400 maunds ; all cehrr steamers will have to use wood. They are strengthening a place here All yesterday was spent at Benares, where we beard that the Rewah Rajah's troops had mutinied, and after confining him in the Fort, had gone off to join Boner Sing, who was said to be at Banda with the Dina pore fellows. These IN ayes, it is thought, contemplate a docent on Ntiraz spore and Allahabad. The Lieut. Go vernor still remains at Benares ; perhaps he may be detained there, on business of the utmost importance, unt , l a house can be got ready for him at Allahabad. The Noel left this m ornieg, dawnward 'sound ;' relieved le_r of the ammunition. The Madrassas are to remain at Benares for the presEnt. I met several wagons bringing in troop) from Reneegunge, and it is stated that, at an avarap. nearly sixty men arrive daily. Now about the Fore It is a very strong place, but owing to a number , t spots which had to be taken in, it has become so extensive as to require fully three regiments to defend it. There are three lines of ramparts ; the second appears to me the strongest. It is really surprising how quickly this Place has arisen, something like what we used to read about the Russians at Sebastopol. The city bounds it on one side, deep and broken ground on the second, the Barns on _ the third, and the Ganges on the fourth. From this it could always be relieved. Oa the west there is a amund, almost on a level with the ramparts, but this can ee commanded easily. Th e di s t ance f rom t h e c ity is also !!f THE N ORTIIERN TIMES.=-LIVERPOOL, THURSDAY, QCTOBEII 29, 1857 very great, and I doubt if 10 inch mortars c nll even reach some parts of it BENARES. Dates are to the 17 h September. A regiment of Gow-khas arrivad there the former day with treasures from Tuanpore, and they would take back guns with them. It is found to be no easy matter to enforce the order to European women and children to leave these parts. At aChunar there are some hundreds of women, some of whcm bre old, blind, infirm, who will only be put on board teamers by force ; and whe, e are they to go on are val in Calcutta? Who is to maintain them ? It is all very well for civilians and military men in staff employ to keno their wives in Calcutta, while they live here; but how is a clerk, whose pay is 50 re. a month, to maintain his wife iu Calcutta Many such men have no friends there ; where are their unfortunate wives to go to ? The government should not only provide for a passage down, which is a simple and easy enough matter, but shouli, in all fairness and humanity, maintain the families of all persons who are unable to maintain two estab lishments. On the 4th, six hundred men, in cluding Eyre's battery, marched fJr Cawnpore, and on the following day, or the day after, six hundred more men, under Sir J. Oatram, left. The whole are to be at Cawnpole to-morrow, and we hope at Lucknow by the 15th at la`est. Lis believed that there is no intention to r tain Lucknow, bat as soon as the women and children and treasure are safely out of it, to leave the place, and employ our troops in the North West. Major Haliburton's company of Highlanders left a few days ago for Allahabad, and must have just been in time to go with Sir J. Outram. The river is again rising, but it witrnot probably again attain the enormous height it reached a fortnight ago, when considerable portions of the road to Rajghat were two feet under the water. down to the 30. h, our least date from that place ; but we have felt it to be but prudent that measures should be taken fir our protection here, and accordingly we have formed ourselves into a Vuluntear Corps, which, nearly all at the station, including the Chaplain and Missionary, have j )ined." CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. MONDAY. The October session of the Central Criminal Court was opened on Monday morning More the Right Hon. the Lord Mayor, the Reco der, Alderman Hale, Alderman Lawrence, and Mr. Allen, the newly-appointed Sheriffs, Messrs. Millard and Parker, Under-Sheriffs, bee. The first edition of the calendar contains the names of 155 prisoners. The Recorder, in his charge to the grand jury, said that although there had been a longer period than usual since the court was last assembled, that was not sufficient to account for the number of prisoners that ware contained in the calendar, and he was also sorry to say that not only in respect of number but also with regard to the gravity of the charges contained in it, the calendar of the present session was unusually heavy. There were no less than five charges of murder and two of manslaughter, together with a number of other serious cases. The first case of murder before hint was that of a woman named Bridget Ravennah, who was charged with destroying her child by administering some narcotic poison to it, and it would seem that the prisoner was proved to have purchased laudanum and to have administered something to the child from a bottle, and that death appeared to have been undouet edly occasioned by laudanum ; and if these facts should be made out to their satisfaction, he apprehended they would feel it to be their duty to return a true bill for murder. His lordship then referred to the other charges of murder, and said that in one cf the cases, in which a woman named Maria Clerk was charged with the murder of her child by drowning it, there might be a question whether the prisoner was in such a sta'e of mind at the time as to render her criminally responsible. The grand jury, however, was not the proper tribunal to take that subject into consideration, and it appeared to him that if the frets were laid before them, as they appeared in the depositions-, it would be their duty to find true bills ire all the cases. The only remaining else to which he considered it necessary to allude, was a charge of misdemeanour agaiest a per on named Thomas Pint Fto-e, who was charged under the statute of the 6th and 7.h Victoria, with having, during the progress of the last election for the offire of Lord Mayans in the city, endeavoured to extort money by a threat of publishing a certain printed paper, with intent to ob•ain money from the gentleman who was d sirous of being elected to the office. His lordship then called their attention to the terms of the statute, and said that before the grand jury would be justified in find ng a true bill against rho defendant, they must be satisfied that his o' , ject was to extort money or to procure some effi'ee, and if they should thiule that he was merely actuated lay a feeling of disappointment and revenge at not obtaining the office of agent at the election,• that would not amount to the offence comternplated by the statute, and they ought to ignore the bill. The grand jury then retired, and the court proceeded to dispose of the'husiness of the orrsion. ~ L LEGED CILUZLTY AT SEA.—Mr. Yelmson William Doyle, the master of the chip John Sugars, surrendered to take his trial, upon an indictment which charged him with a series of aggravated assaults uporeßehert Bastwick, an appren tice on board tho same vessel. Mr. Bodkin, Mr. Clark, and Mr. POand conducted the proseetztion, on behalf , of the Board of Trade. Mr. Sergetanit Parry was specially retained, with Mr. Lawrence and Mr. F. K Lewis, for the defendant. Bodkin- having brieflk opened the case, several witnesses were examined on behalf of the prosecution., two or three cf whom were neeroes, and one an Austrian seaman, and from their 'evidence it appeared that the John Sugars sailed from Hartle pool on a-voyage to Ceylon, in the month of May, 1856 and that the &ceased, who was a la-I fifteerryears old, was ono of the apprentices, and acted as cabin-bote s on board the vessel. According to the evidence of the witnesses, very soon after the 'vessel sailed, the defendant assaulted the lad with very great violence, and that he else 'compelled him to walk about the decleat night with a heavy capstan bar in his Jrnd, carried as a gun, and deprived him , by this ineatree of his rest. It also appeared than on the 18th of August an alarm was given that they boy Bee:wick was overboad, and he was drowned, Led -his ,body was never recovers!. This not appeaeingon the log-took, coupled with the omission ofAny statement that means were taken to save the boy, it appeared had led to the present prose cution being instituted. These witnesses were subjected to a very searchingersess-examinetton by Sergeant Parry, and it ap peared evic'ent from the answers given by sonneof them that there was a good deal of ill-feeling against the defendant on board the vessel, and it appeared that when she arrivedat Point de Gallo complaints water made of their conduct, on 4: one or two , of them were imprisoned, and they afterwards deserted from the John Sugars, and-one of them also aanitted (het he had deserted from another vessel, called the Tamar. It ales" appeared that they had threatened that they would duck the defendant, and that there had been disputes between them upon the subject of the wages due to them, and she defendant wee summoned . ' before a magistrate. It was likewise admitted-that at the time the poor lad fell overbo!rd he was engaged in cleaning the cabin, and that he had to get water in a bucket from the ride of the ship, and that he might, have fallen overboard from' accident while so engaged. It alto appeared that the moment the alarm was given the ship was put about and kept near the spot for more thare•an hour, and that the defendant had a life-- 'buoy in his hand, but as the body-of the lad was' never seen et was, of course, use-less to throw it into the water. Mr. Serjeant Parer, in the course of a very able speech to the , jury, called their attention to the fact that thocrew of the vessel was com— posed partly of negroes and foreigners, who were evidently Actuated by Yin ictive feelings towards the defendant, and be said that his instructions were that-there was no foundation for the charge against the defendant, and that it had-been trumped up, by the witnesses for their own purposes. Three or fear witnes-es were called for the defence ) and some-of them eon— tradicted the evidence given for the prosecution as to what occurred upon the occasion when the assaults were alleged' to bavo been committed.. The defendant also received a good Character for humanity and kindness of disposition from several` witnesses, ; one of them, a merchant ship-cap air, named -Scott who said it was a ver y corm:sari- punishm en t inflicted upon ap , prentices on board ship to make them carry a capstan-for twoor three hours, and that it hail often been isfi c ed upon himself, and that he would rather have had the rope's end. (A laugh ) The reason for this was, Ire said,. that it was over sooner. (Renewed laughter.)': The Recorder then summed up, and the jury,,after a short deliberation, found-the defendant guilty upon the third count in the indictment,„ which charged him with having.comenitted a common assault. Tho Recorder having directed the defendant to be pl seed- in the dock, pro c{ eded to piss sentence upon him, and, in so doing, lie observed that it was of course, very necessary that discipline she:Rid be preserved on board ship e and the Court would be very sorry to do anything that was likely to interfere withahe authority of the earnmander,of , a vessel, but, at the same time, it should be known that every boy or other person engaged on board ship was under the protection of the law, and that every excess o f authority would me e t with punishment. He was grettified to find that the new statute, which directed that the log of every vessel, upon its arrival e shou'd he submitted to the examination of a competent officer,_ who had thus anopportunity of causing inquiry to.be wade into the circumstances connected wilt any act of personal violence that appeared to.have been committed on boarkeither by the captain or any other officer, was very likely to,havo a very salutary effect, and- he- hoped that the present prosecution would tend to make its provisions mere extensively crcu,lated. It should, be known by all persons in the poeitionrof the defendant that every ace of violence was enre to be inqurecl in•o, at whatever distance from the shores of the country it might have been committed. In the present case it appeared that in a moment of excitement he ha 1 assaulted this unfortunate boy in a very violent maener, and if the joy had convicted him upon any other more serious counts ia, the indictment, he should eermin:y have inflicted a much more actions sentence than the oac he•was about to pronounu. The jury had convic.ed him of one assault on'y, but there was too much reason to suppose that this unfortunate boy had suffered a series of acts of violence at his bands, and there was also etnisidera.ble ground for believing lb it ha had been driven to the act of self-desttnctian to escape from the violence to which he had bean subjected. He then sentenced the de6telant to be imprisoned in Neutga.te for three months, TUINDAT. (NEFORE THE RECORDER.) THE CHARGE OP LIBEL UPON ONE OF THE DIRECTORS OF TIIS SMIARINE TELYGRAPII COMedfir• Thomas Diamond Evans and Henry Thorn surrendered to their hail, charged with a misdemeanour in publishing on the Bth • of August a certain libel reflecting on the character of the lion. F. W. Cadogan, Vice-Chairman of the Submarine and European Telegraph Company. In another count they were charge f wi.h, having offered to prevent the publication of the same ; and a further count for having conspired to injure the character of Mr. Calog,an. The def!altint Evans, it will be recollected, was formerly in the service of the company, and the letter in ques ion was written and sent to the Times for publication in answer to a letter from Sir J. Carmichael, the chairman of the company, rela7ive to an Indian telegraph message, denying, in the moat emphatic terms, that the company had ever betrayed the trust reposed in them by the public, or had ever tampered with, or delayed any message entrusted Utthern fur transmission. Evans pleaded a justifica tion under Lord Campbell's Acr. Mr. Sergeant Ballantiee, Mr. Bodkin, Mr. Giffin], and Mr. Griffiths, prosecuted; Mr. Sergeant Parry defended Evans; and Mr. Robineon defended Thorn. M. Ballantine said that this was a charge of a somewhat peculia r charact er , an d i nvo l ve d c i rcumstances t h at seldom arose in a criminal court. The two defendants were charged with having published a libel reflecting en the chat acter of Mr. Cado , , ; an, and beyond that they were charged with having conspired to publish the libel with a view of extorting money, or of abstaining from doing it, also with a view of obtaining money. To those charges Evans and Thorn had pleaded not guilty; and in addition Evans had ph aded a justification, viz , that his statewet is were true, rnd were published with a view to the public interest, and not from private or malignant motives. The jury would have to deeide first, whether the letter in question was a libel, and whether Evans justification had been made out ; furthermore they would have to determine whether or not the libel was po,bli3lied bona fide, and for the benefit of the public, or for the purpose of extortion. The defendant, Evans, was formerly in the Company's service. The defendant, Thorn, was only known to them as Captain Thorn, of the Prince's Club, Leicester-square. The learned counsel then referred to the circumeances connected with the libel, ehich arose out of a telegraph despatch forwarded from India in August last, which caused much excitement at the time in political and commercial circles, especially in relation to the funds. The learned Sergeant then rea I the following letter comprising the libel : "TO THE EDITOR. OF THE TIMES, " Sir,—l beg to say I was superintendent of th' instrument room of the Submarine Telegraph Company from November 1852 to 1854, when I resigned ; that dieing the above period one of the directors of the company—the Hon. F. W. Cado. gan—was in the habit of visiting the instrument room, and waiting in the hoard room daily —say, from three to four o'clock, and I had special instructions from him to send up all mess ages of importance, and as a consequence, I can mention ono from Lord Stratford de Radcliffe to Lord C arendon, dated Constan tinople, Dec. 3, received via Brussels, when, within half-an hour after the message had been seen by the Hon. F. W. Cado gan the funds fell Q per cent. Mr. Cadogan suddenly quitted the office, and almost directly afterwards we received a message from Edenheim, London, to Jacquemar, Paris, touching the particular fall. There could, I assure you, be no possibility of these parties having obtained information, only through us, and lam passitive that no clerk quitted the offices. That the Iron. F. W. Cadogan frequently looks at the contents of the forwarded and received continental messages. At that time the Hon. F. W. Cadogan gave instructions to forward news to his private residence, and on one occasion I recollect the con tents of the Indian telegraph, received per Austrian Lloyds, addressed to the Times, being forwarded to Mr. Cadogan. Another time I forwarded a despatch to Mr. Seymour Clark, by order of Mr. Cadogan. Again, on arrival of important con tinental news, there occurred a rise or fall in the funds for the moment, and the result was that about noon a rush was made to the office by the fist stockbrokers of the day. Mr. Cadoga❑ being in the instrument ramie, said to me, ' are you busy I replied in the affirmative, when Mr. Cadogan took up the pack of messages (25 in number) which was lying by my side, and taking out from near the bottom of the parcel a message from Rothschild of London to Rothschild of Paris, placed it on the top of the pile, and requested ins to give precedence to it. I told him that all the messages were sent out in the order they were received, and to alter the arrangement was doing the public a great injustice. He desired me to do- so,-and I obeyed. This can be prayed by the film of messages, at on the original message will bo found a note of mine, made at the time, in ink. I have not stated a single fact which lam not able to prove by the officers or servants of the company, and by reference to Ray diary. I will content myself with the foregoing: staternent, vrhieh you will, no doubt, see completely answers the paragraph in Sir-J. Carmichaera letter, and will, also, prove to the chair man and directors of the company, and to the public; that you do not hazard opMions based on rumours. (S gned) "T. D. E TANS " The - learned Serjeant, having alluded to some other facts said that although the Hen. Mr. Cadogin- might, if he had so chosen, have avoided being examined upon the allegations contained-in the libel, he would not do so ;he entirely denied the allegetions, and courted the fullest inquiry. Samuel - Trigg, wine merchant, Mark-lane—l- know the defendant Evans, aed also the directors of the company. About the 4 h of August I met the defendant Evans, who asked me if , I had seen the letter in the Times from Sir J. Carmichael, and said he was going to see Mr. Sampson, of the Times, an! that he was going to answer it. I met, him again upon the Bth at the• iilackwall Railway station, and said, " I have not seen that letter of yours in the Times ;" and ho said he was gong to see Mr. Sampson about it, to know if it required any alteration. He added that he had got the letter in his-pocket. Witness took it and read it. Cross-examined—Evans had said h had' been ill at Gravesend Tha statement was made to me at a public luncheon-room b Mark-lane. I had not seen Sir J. Car michaera letter. lliarmaduke Blake Sampson, examined by Mr. Giffard.— I manage the City eorrespondence-of the Timm- Upon the sth August I saw the defendant EVans ; he said he had cause to contradict a statement in the Times the previous day which appeated in a letter from , Sir J. Carmichael. ffe. stated that Ile had been in the service of the Company. Wit- ness ariked whether lee had been discharged, and ho said ❑o, and produced a testimonial from the Company. I told him he must put what he had to say into a letter. Upo❑ July the 8.1) Evans and Thorne called again and said he had prepared the letter and that all it contained was true, an I under his own knowledge. Witness 'ingested that some alterations shoal! be made in the letter, and they were made in the defendant Evans's own handwriting. From some remarks from Captain Thorne, I thought he wished the respensibility of theletier to fall upon the Timm Cross-examined —I told Evans th t I could not deal with a letter of seal importance without seeing Mr. Mowbray Morris, the managertof the Times, at Printing-houae-square—Lhelieve Evans had been in communication with Mr. Morris. Witness hid never given orders that during Stock Exchange hours tel.seaphic messages from the Cloatinent should- not be delivered. '• The Hon, F. W. Cadegen examined by Mr. Balldntine— ', Was one of the promoters of what is now the Submarine Tele ' graph Compaq. The defendant Evans •was superintendent of the room in, which the submarine messages weie received a❑d despatched, but was discharged Borne time since. All govern . 'merit messages upon private matters are in •cipher— Witness never interfered with the despatch of messages or directed one •to be sent before auo.her. lie had neerecollection of the mss sage from Lord , StratfordelOßedcliffe to Lord Clarendon. The various allegations-in the libel were then put to the witness in exarnination,,and in answer he generally:, denied the truth of them. The only messages which he had sent privately to him were some in reference to the killed and wounded in the Crimea, his brother being engaged in that war. Many of these messages did not arrive at his private house until after their pub•ication in the usual course. He never sent a message to Mr. Seymour• Clarke of the Great Nerthern Railway Company, nor did he know him. He never gave the precedence to any message but one, and that was not a business one_ On Satur day, the 8-h of August, he saw Captain borne at his (witness's) house, 1,3 G, Piccadilly—(Thorne said he was a friend of the defendant Evans, who was laid up with indisposition at Graves end) —on the subject of a letter that was to appear in the Times, From circumstances that, had come into his mind, he saw the defendant in the presence of Lady. Cadogan. Thorne handedhim the leteer, and he read it out aloud, and then handed it back to Thorne. Witness requested to have a copy, and Thorne said he must leave to consult some friend first. Ultimately he promised a copy. Miring the- interview Thorne repeatedly said that he had heavy pecuniary, engagements with. Evans and with gentlemen at that (: he west) end of Lonc:on, and that it must be mauifestly to his (witness's) interest and the interest of the company that the Latter should not appear. He said the matter had been left entirely to him and he was certain the letter would not be sent to the Times except through hint. He then went away, and by arrangement same back at nine o'clock, and after some objections obtained a copy, Thorne brought on the subject of money neck and; heels, Witness then communicated with the managars of the Times, and put the matter into the hands of his solicitor. Thorne did not state to him that ho had been sent by Evans. Re once or twice requested that the interview should be private and confidential, but witness purposely abstained from Leaking any answer. Cross-examined Sergeant Parry : He was, a director of four other companies --the European Telegraph, Company the Railway Signals Company, an association kr establishing steam ferries on the Thames, and of a patent foe transporting material to the army. Evans had the superintendence of the instrument room, and witness was constantly in it. Ho should thus have an opportunity of seeing the top message of each pile, if he did not look further. (Laughter.. Frequently h did ace others, and sometimes his attention was drawn to them. The Government cipher was a co:lection of numerals, sad he apprehended that no one knew them except the government officers. As a question of degree, he sh mid say he wee more in the instrument room than any other director, but he never heard that there were comp'aints that he was too frequently in the instrument room. He had gone into the instrument room and+ looked at the file of received, and forwarded wessagea, without saying anything to anyone, but he did not think he had done so frequently. He had seen the messages as a super, intendent or any other officer would. He constantly real the messages. At certain hours of the day there were scarcely any other messages than those between London and Paris with regard to the purchase or sale of stock. He read those messages amongst others. Once he authorised a message of Rothschild's to hive precedence, but he did not know what that message was. To the best of his belief it was destined for some long distance. He had all Rothschild's messages that had been seat through the company. [A long discussion here too place in reference to the production of messages of Rothschild, dated the 3rd and 4th of February, 1354, and they were handed down to Sergeant Parry, with a view to ascertaining whether they bore the mark alluded to in the libel. Such a mark was not found, and it was then arranged that Sergeant Parry should have an opportunity of inspecting ell m essages sent through the company on those days ] He gave precedence to Rochschilds message, because he thought ho could do r e without injury to the public. Probably in this case he personally handed the message to the superintendent. Ile did not know over how many he gave that message precedence. He did not know whether the chairman or di:actors knew that he gave a message priority. On a second occasion, wh en th e chairman was present, another application for priority on the pert of Rothschild w as mad-, but the appli ca ti on was refused, because it bud on it a quotation from the state of the funds, and was not therefore to - be considered a private message. Be (witness) knew a person named Wollaston, but his belief was that he never in his presence gave precedence to a message. [inn learned counsel mentioned several cases, but the witness said he had not any idea upon the subject.] He had never, after giving a message privately, gone directly to a stockbroker's office. Ho had been for many years past in the habit of speculating in shares and in the fitllos, Ile Mien% have gone from the telegraph office to his stockbroker's two or three times a day. He had never gone direct from seeing the messages to his stockbroker's, for the purpose of giving orders for purchases or sales. Ho did not know that the Daily News had given instructions to its correspondents not to send important, messages through the Company during Stock Exchange hours. Baron Rothschild had frequently complained of the detention of, his messages beyond those of other people's, and lie (witness) may have gone to the file to asc.,rtain at what time the message arrived. He was very intiznatz with Baron Rothschild, bat he had never sent any messages on to him to Gunner bury. On one occ , sion (a Sunday) ho sent a boy with a note to Baron Rothschild, at his house in Piccadilly, with directions that if he were not in town it was to be forwarded to him at Gunnersbury. With the exception of extracts from lists of killed and wounded, he had never betrayed any message sent through the companYt He had never betrayed any private message. The message to Baton Rothschild on the Sunday was a private message, and was forwarded by a telegraph-office boy because he had no ono else to send. He gave precedence to Baron Rothschild's message because it was to a distant part, and if it had not gone then it would not have reached that night. It Wad not a com mercial message. Lady Adela Cadogan corroborated the evidence of her husband. Mr. Mowbray Morris produced a letter left at the Times office on the 10th of August. The letter was the libel complained of. He had had communication with Mr. Evans prior to that time with regard to the letter. He had had occasion to complain of the use made of the Times :telegraphs, and .7dr. Cadogan replied, taking the whole of the responsibility on himself. Evans distinctly stated that he had never given Thorne authority to show the letter to Mr. Cadogan. This was the case for the prosecution. Mr. Serjeant Parry then proceeded to address the jury for the defendant Evans. Ho said that the task that had devolved mean him on the present occasion was one of no ordinary character, and he could not perform it without feelings of great anxiety and pain, in consequence of the very peculiar character of the inquiry. His client had had the boldness to put upon the record a plea of a very extraordinary and minimal character, and one that was very difficult of proving, and since the statute under which the indictment was framed had become law. he believed thole were only three instances in which mach a plea had been pleaded. It was une doubtedly a vary bald step to take Loamy that charger of this kind were true, but he hoped to be able to satisfy the jury by the evidence ho should lay before them that the plea was an honest pica, and the defendant had Daly stated that which was perfectly true, and that ho was actuated. by no ocher motive than to protect the public from what was undoubtedly a most dangerous and unjustifiable proceeding on the part of any person in the position of the prosecutor in this case. This was a painful course for him to be compelled to take, but he had no alternative. Mr. Cadogan was undoubtedly a person' of high position ; he was a member of the bar, the son of a peer, and most highly coanected ; and a man in such a posi- - lion must no doubt feel most acutely the consequences of an adverse verdict on the present occasion ; but the jury must not forgot, at the same time, that the coneeluences were equally as important to his client Mr. Erans, and ha should be a traitor to his duty if he did not act up to the instructions given to him; and produce the neces sary evidence to allow that the defendant had 'Taken tho truth and that he was justified in' the course he had taken, and there was not the aligatest pretence for charging him with endeavouring to extost nosey by impresser means. He would ask the jury, in the first place, to look at the position of the prosecutor. By his ownshowing, ever since the year 1848 he had been living by speculating in the funds and shame : (Ser geant Ballantine and Mr. Bodkin here both very eagerly exclaimed " No, no.") He did not mean that he had got his livinwexclusively by those means, but it was evident that he had been engaged in , large speculations of that kind, and it did not appear that he had any establishment of his own but resided with his father. (!'he counsel for the prosecution here made some exclamation of dissent.) He maintained that fre was stating exactly what the evidence wee- upon the subject, but he was not surprised that his learned friends did not feel carite so comfortable upon this enbject as they would wish. (A laugh.) Ho was sure the jury would not doubt for a moment that the real parties in the present cause were Mr. Cadogan and the defendant Evans, and that it was a farce to suppose that the prosecution had been instituted for the purposes of justice. If; as had been stated by his learned friend, Mr. Cadogan was so very anxious that the whole truth should be told, why had he instituted a criminal proceeding like this when he knew the mouth of the defendant would be closed, and why had he not brought an action for libel, when the def ndant could have been examined upcn oath as w.ll as himself, and the jury would have decided which of the two was speaking the truth ? By the course of proceeding that Mr. Cadogan adopted, the mouth of the only person' who was able to give the jury information was closed. It vase true that Mr. Cadogan had to day told his own story, • but the jury would observe that not one of his coalirectors had bean•called to confirm• any portion of the evidence As to the. charge of extorticn, it appeared to him that there was not a • tithe of evidence-to show that Mr. Evans was any party to what might, perhaps, hive been an act of indiscretion on the part of Thorne, and as to. the delay ine making the charge, it was clear that it was the letter of Sir Jaime- Carmichael, which appeared in the Times ; thnt.had induced the defendant to come forward and • make the statement in question. He was unwilling to say anything harsher injurious of a gentleman in the position of Mr. Cadogan, but he mint do his duty by his client, and he was compelled to ask the jury to consider the probabilities of the mi t e ) and whether it was not. extremelp likely that a person •in his position should have acted in. the manner represented by the defendant. It might, perhaps, be said, that a gentleman in the condition of life of Mr. Cadogan wits very unlikely to have acted in such a manner ; but, unhappily, their eaperience late- years taught them. that persons in the highest position and supposed integrity, had committed frauds. of the meet disgraceful character. Mr. Cadogan had no obvious means of living. Tine, he. was the director of several' com— panies, all, as it appeared, carried on tinder the same roof, and this might be a very respectable occupation, but the jary must see that it was a position which placed him •in very great temptation as the deptear chairman of a telegraph company.. It was a career followed by needy men. It was no use blinking the ma ter, s and it was a career which sometimes led.' to ruin, and sometimes undoubtedly also to great wealth, but he had no hesitation in saying that it was not a- satisfaeory thing to see the deputy chairman of a telegraph company carrying on large speculations in funds and tharee, and that it wee a position in which it was clear, to say the least of it, he was liable to great temptation. Mr. Cadogan might possibly have acted as the most honourable mans, but still his career was that of. a needy speculative man ; and he would put it to the jury whether any, man engaged in such proceed ings ought to have the entire control of a telegraph through which messages-were continually passing which might have the most important effect upon tt e speculations in which he was engaged. The subject appeared to hint one of the greatest possible importance, not only to the public but to the share holders in the company, and he could not halp•thinking that very little confidence would bo placed: in a company where the chairman was proved to have been in the con stant habit of, looking at all the important messages that arrived, and that even. if Mr. Cadogan should succeed in convicting. his client on the present occasion, he would certainly not clear his character to the world, although he might fancy he had- done so to his own, eyes. The learned Sergeant then referred to the admission made by Mr.- Cadogan that he had given priority to a message sent by. Baron Rothschild, and he said it was impossible to doubt that his doing so was a great derelica• tion of duty, and he reminded, them that when a second similar application was made, when Sir James- Carmichael was present, the permission was refused. The prosecutor had also admitted that he had been in the habit of looking at the messages sent by Baron Bothschild, which he clearly has no right to do, and there could be very little doubt that his object was to further his own speculations, for. it was well known that many speculators would be glad to give, a thousand pounds to know what course this firm was pura suing in their stock operraions, and whether they were buying or selling, as it might be the means of making a fortune in a. day. The learned sergeant concluded a very eloquent and able speech by stating that he should call witnesses to prove the justification that had been pleaded by his client, and expressing a confident op , nion that when the jury had heard the evidence he should lay before them, they would say the, at all events, there was so mush doubt in the matter that they would not be justified in convicting the defendant upon the present charge. Mr. Robinson also made an able address to the jury on behalf of the other defendant, and he went weir a good many of the topiesthat had been urged by Mr. Sergeant Parry. He con tended that, so far from there being any evidence that the• detendaats intended to suppress the letter if they were paid to: do so, the evidence proved the direct contrary ; and ho urged' that it Thorne went to Mr, Cadogan on the Bth of August for the purpose of extorting money, it was not very likely that he would have permitted Lady Cadogan to be present, at the interview. Dr. Young, a physician, of Gravesend, was then called to prove that, from the 4th to the sth of August, the defendant Evans was ill at that place, and that ho kept his hed the greater part of that time. At the cone'usion of the examination of this witness, the trial was adjoui ned. THE VERDICT. By British and Irish Magnetic Teegraph. Yesterday, this case was resumed, and the jury, after an absence of an hour and a half, returned a verdic' of gu ilt / against the defendants—Thomguil'y of attempting to extort money, and Evans guilty of having acted in concert with him. Tne jury found, further, that the libel was not justified, the defendant (Evans) having failed to prov e the whole of the statements contained in it, When called up for sentence, b o th d e f en d ants emphatically den i e d the;r, guilt. The sentence o f the Court was, that they sitcom! eaoh be imprisoned and kept to hard labour for a period of twelve calendar months. NAGODE. The rebels who passed up in this direction some ten days ago are (2nd Sept.), we hear, still at Banda; they consist of the 7th, Bth, and 40th regiments (at least what Mejor Eyre's gallant little force left of theni.) They are supposed to be waiti g for the party which ascended the Kutra Pass the other day, and which party, we are told, were so hard up for ammuni that they kindly proposed taking Nagode cn route to Delhi. in order to send the 50;h to br:ng their megazine and treasure, and all go together to Delhi , a very nice arrange ment ; but when the rebels had gat within six miles of Rewah, and the Rajah of that place had told the Political Agent, and tit) other cffie.ers there, to leave, as he could not protect them, and he himself had sent his zenana, and the towns-people and their women, to a place of safety, they, i. e, the rebels, in the, to us, most myste rious manner, turned round and went back again. The party is supposed to consist of the Ramgurh Battalion and Kooer Snig'a rabble, and is reported to be about 4,000 strong. They still, I behave, have a hankering after the Nagode magazine and six-pounders, and talk of coming this way. The nig'st before last, a native went up to a native officer of the 50th, and raid that the' Bhahghur Rajah would be much obliged if he would bring the Regiment to help him to fight the Punnah Raj ih (who is our ally). The native officer put him. in con finement, and the next morning he was told that he would be strung up He did not tell all he knew ; he said that there were two other men with him, and the. they had the paper for the regiment to sign : these two men are not to be found, they having ran away directly they tholght the place was getting too hot for them. I believe the Shahghur man offered 15' re. a month to the Sepoys, and all setts of chances to any one General Outram hopes to be at Lucknow on the 16 la, and the gar. icon can, we hear, hold out till the 20th I hear that a portion of a Bombay N. I. Regiment at ?dhow has mutinied. This may account for the non-appearance o the Bombay troops in these parts." HYDERABAD. The M hurrum has passed, and there has been no disturbance. Solerjung paid devoted attention to pro , ide security for the Residency, by posting numerous guards within the city and is the suburb between it and the Residency, and at all places of great resort. ehumshool oomrah, on the last day of the ceremonials, had the rear of the Residency occupied by a guard of 130 horse and foot, to prevent insurgents from the city making a detour upon the Residency from that si4e ; the political effect of this not very strong support was good it showed that this respectable man Was with us. The Residency has been fortified in a manner, and they were prepared with their means, such as it was, to make a stout defence. The Residency was not to be abandoned ; our prestige mint not be lowered, especially here, for though 20 000 were to beat 500 of our men, the prevailing opinion would be—and they will become presumptuous from it, that their city contains a class of soldiers superior to the English. Colonel Davidson has been vigilant, and carries along with him the sovereign, and the minister, and the highest noblemen, the relations and counsellors of the sovereign, Shumshul-comrah. Solariung's devotedness to provide for the security of the Residency was seen in the incessant attention paid to this object, and in the judicious arrangements made by him fur that purpose. He has intelligence enough to understand that the permanence of the sovereignty in the present dynasty, depends upon the continuance of the alliance with the English, and in its possessing, I will not say a paramount,. a directing iefluence in the State. I wish this could be better understood here than it is. We have the example , before the accession of the Nizem. 00l Moolk to the Musnud of four sovereigns being assassinated in the short space of 13 years. The Brigadier, Colonel Coffin, is placing. himself in a strong posture of defence, and otherwise making good arrang meats to meet such difficulties as map occur incidentally. Twenty-eight guns are placed in position at tha Artillery Barracks, which are being en trenched, and where we have 184 European Artillerymen, ann other guns are posted e'sewhere. A f,tv Enfield rifles, which were lying idle in the arsenal, have been made over to the 3rd European le fantry, and, what is better than all, the Eurcpeans are being taught to ride ; they have already been taught gunnery ; so that in case cf necessity, they might assist in the management of the Horse Artillery Battery. It was impossible that the repeated defections of the regiments in Bengal, trusted by their officers, should not put us upon our g iatel, and make us resort to extraordinary precaution, although events iu the end might show that they were unnecessary. R&NEGUNGE. Captains Oakes and Birch, with the Sikh, and , a local band raised hero, are close on Purril(a ; their presence in their respective districts is all that is necessary to restore order, as they will be ,backed by the mass of the poople It was the budmashcs and released prisoners, led by some of the rascally Gutwals, who plundered. ASSAM. The fearful rebellion has cast its dark s hadow over our hi therto peaceful valley, although as yet we are spared its d read reality. The first intelli g en ce th a t a con spi racy h a d b een discovered in Upper Assam came upon us like a t hunder-clap, and immediate and energetic meaures were Judiciously adopted at all the stations, and the crisis, we now trust, has passed. Colonel Hannay has entrenched himself with his Goorkhas at Debrooghur, and sent off hi s Hindoostanee eer oys to Jorhat, where there are no Europ3an residents Actual mutiny has not broken out at any sta tion, tut all feel that they are on a v,,leano. All is out wardly quiet just now, and every ono tries to feel secure, although great alarm actually exists, for there is not a European solder in the province. It is said that Kooar Sing is the instigator ('f the plot discovered here. The Indies have left Nowgong for Gowhstty. There a Volun teer force has been formed. consisting of the residents and some few natives in htli position. We are hoping a steamer may s.on be up, and that things may be kept on till then but our position is certainly very shaky. In Assam the 2nd battalior, containing fewer Up-country meu. is said to be most trustworthy. The Ist Battalion, who lately volunt eere d, 2,;-e said to be dangerous Re sidentsin outposts of Upper Assam ates fl tting, and tea cultivators droppin g down stream. We lea-n that in Lower Assam, a Volunteer Guard is raised, &mong whom some of a batch of now rifles are distributed for service Au occasional steamer would useful in many wars. The bezfors and other places are full of luchae, bankah Jawans, and bad chaps of sorts. LOWER ASSAM, A letter, clWed 30th September, says: —" A short time ago, the ‘`.'ep iys here were detected sending away their families from the lines. This looped iiuspicions, and they were immediately ordered to bring them back again. It is probable that they did it from some apprehension of dan ger themsfilve , , but more likely some cf their number had been planning mischief. Now, many of the Hindottanees among them, are asking for their discharge, and are going. et% But the corps at Debrooghur are, according to report, in a much worse state; I should say i n open mutiny, but as we have no means to coerce them, or even to disarm them, the authorities ve cbliged to overlook a great deal. They have talked openly cf replacing the Raja on his guddec _again, and conquering the whole province for him. The magistrate of Seebsagor thought it advisable to invite all the tea planters in his district to the station, but five or six of them have come down here, leaving all their property and their large stock of new made tea, unprotected. We may ally day hear of the revolt of the troops at Debrooghur. They were quiet SINGBHOOM. A letter from Singbhoom, dated 2ad September, mentions that the Rajah of Seraik.lah has kept all quiet and peace able in that quarter. All workmen had returned to their labour, and it was evident that the Natives were now beginning to think that the B itish rule would st.ll reign supreme iu India as heretofore. The Madras troops were hourly expected. It is reported that they are to pay the Rajah of Pachete a visit, with the view of ascer taining upon what grounds he declined the restoration of his title and hmors, so generously and disinterestedly proffered to him by the Nu wrab of Great Benevolence ; however, this man is mischievously inclined and should be looked to. POONA. Two native la 'els in the neighbourhood, widows of a deceased Rejah, contrived to plot and plan all sorts of mischief in th. it palace, where the darlings considered themselves quite safe ; however, one fine morning the palace was surrounded by troops, the Political walked in, sent a message to the ladies that carriages were in readiness to convay them to Bombay, and off they were packed, and at th's moment they are enjoyirr the sea breeze on a small Nand in the harbour, called Butcher's Island, a station for the s ilors of the Indian , Navy, where youngsters go to be taught gunnery. AG RA. The following from the Fort,. dated Agra, 6th Bep•ember ;7, In my letter yesterday, I told you it was rumoured that a force of insurgent s were com b s* here horn Gwalior, but that I did not credit the rumour; however it 'urns out to be quite true; for we have received authentic informa tion, that 800 men, with two guns, crossed the Chambul durirg Friday, and that as many thousands; with twelve or fourteen guns, including mortars and howitzers, were on the other side. Of course it is impossible to conjecture with certainty, whether or not they intend attacking us ; but the general impression is, that they will do so, wi h the view of making a diversion in favour of the mutineers at Delhi, as by coming here, they will draw to this quer er the British troops, which otherwise would proceed from Cawnpore to Delhi. They are said to consist of mutineers of the G walior Contingent, of Holkar's men, and our own Regiments from Indore aid thereabouts. The Chatnbal is 36 miles off, and it is supposed the enemy will first attack and rendezvous at Dholpore, the Rajah of which. place pretends to be favourahle to us. He sank all the boats on this side of the Chumbul, but the enemy are said to , have collected, with some diffieulty, forty on the other bank. My own ides is, that the enemy will pro ceed to Bhurtpore, capture that place from our ally, its- Rajah, and garrison themselves there, where they will be able to make a strong resistance, should Colin Campbell, Havelock, or Nei 1 attack them; and in the meantime they can harass us considerably, by sending detachments oc- casionally to our ne . ghbourhood. Moreover, in the event of the ger ison of Delhi being driven to extremities, they might fight their way to Bnurtpore, and by coalescing with t'eetroops there, contin e to &ire us a great deal of trouble. ALLAHAB AD; The following is from Allthabad, datod September 9 : " A friend has just come in and reported that five regi ments of infantry and two- of cavalry had arrived from the westward, and taken position at a p . aee called Monza. Acunta about twen y miles from us. The Tehseeldar of Saroun, a place ten miles hence, across the Ganges, with his "Amlah," meny of them wounded, came in this morning from their district. The Tehseeldar of Karee, sixteen males across the Janina, has come in with the-treasure in his charge. M'Gowan, our postmaster, has sent me for perusal a report from Bhowanee Darn cf Sohagee dietrie., about 30 miles west across the Jumna, Surbaroker, in which he states the treasure sent to Rewah has been returned ; a large party of mutineers t-ad left Kheeree (36 miles from us) for Kuttra where the Rewah Troops under Hinds met, engagel, and were worsted by the mutineers who, after dispersing the Rewah troops, were advancing on Rewah. This is a serians matter, and we pause for confirmation or contradiction of the report. After sending 1;300 men with General Outrank-to reinforce Cs' metal Havelock, we have but 170 left in our garrison, of whom one half are in hospital. OFFICIAL DESPATCII Head Quarters, Skinner's House, Delhi, Sept likh. The assault of Thlhi took plaee yesterday morning, soon racer daybreak, and the storming was entirely surcessful.
