THE IMPERIAL MEETING AT STUT FGARDT. STUTTGARDT,. SEPT 25. The Emperor Lou'_s Napoleon arrived here this afternoon at a quarter to 5, after having kept all Stuttgardt on the tenter-hooks and tip-toes of expectation for a full hour and a half. The French Minister here, as well as Count de Montessuny, the French Minister at Frankfort, together with several of the Wurtemberg Ministers of State and Adjutants of the King, went out this morn ing by railway to meet the Emperor at the frontier 'ration of Bruchsal. During the fore noon, while all the world was talking and thinking exclusively of the French Emperor, the Russian Czar was driving about the town to pay visits to his relations in a simple barouche and a pair of horses, with his l ro'hei-in-law, the Prince Alexander of Hesse, seated at his right hand, and by this contrivance he passed everywhere unrecog nised by the people, which is the more feasible, as at a little distance his round fur cap can hardly be distinguished from the bearskin caps of the Wur temberg fekljagers, The Emperor of Russia was received yesterday as one of the family at an insignificant railway station outside of the town, without any guard of honour oor fuss of any sort being made with him, the King'a private carriage even being used on the occasion; but the Emperor Louis Napoleon has been received to-day at the terminus here in the town with all possible state and ceremony. Not only was the main station kept strictly reserved for the members of the 'Court, but also the street leading from the station to the Palace was lined with infantry and Lancers; this latter regiment very singularly, however, displayed at its head an Imperial eagle with the N, being a atindard it took from troops under the coin-- mand of the uncle in 1814, and was now parade] so juliciously before the eyes of . the nephew in 1857. An eye-witness of the interesting cere mony that took place at the terminus enables me to inform your readers and future historians'of the impor‘ant fact, that the Emperor Lodis Napo leon, on alighting from the railw?y carriage, twice embraced the King of Wurtemberg, who was waiting to receive him. This, doubtless, formed part of the French programme of the ceremoniee, but it certainly would not have been introduced of his own accord by the King, who is .an extremely cold, reserve], undemonstrative person. On thiE oc3asion all the members of the Royal family were present en grande tenue, with state carriage and . servants in gold liveries, but, unfortunately, as the carriages were not open, probably on account of the scorching heat and the dust, the carriages and the servants were all that the patient public git to see after two hours' waiting. The troops had hardly drawn off, after the cor tege of carriages c giveying the Emperor and his suite to the Palace had passed by, when a feldjager rode rapidly through the garden by the site of the Palace, and had hardly time to clear a space threugh the crowd when the Emperor of Russia drove up in a carriage and pair with his brother-in-law, the Prince of Hesse, and followed by a single adju -taut. My letter of yesterday has told you that the two Emperors would dine to-lay with their respective hosts seperately, and meet for the first time this evening at the entertainment given by • the Crown Prince, and it may be that this is true still ; but if it be otherwise, and the Emperor of Russia has come to dine with the King and his Imperial guest, I should be disposed to believe, from -the excellence of my authority for the ,former version, that His Russian Majesty has unexpectedly deviated from the arrangements that well-informed members of the Court believed yesterday to be still valid. It is possible also th it the visit is only one of formal greeting and a mark of attention to the French Emperor ; on . the other hand a more surprising deviation from the intended programme, which I have been enabled to already to an nounce to you by telegraph, consists in the a*proaching arrival of the Empress of R4lB6iR, which is now expected to take place to-morrow. It is also a novelty in the arrangements, that it should have been decided at length that the'Prince of Prussia shall come hither to greet the Emperor Louis Napoleon in the name of the K ng, his brother, for it had hitherto been understood that he would pay his respects to the French Emperor in his character of Military Governor of the Rhenish Provinces only, when the later should touch upon Prussian territory on his return homewards. The reasons that were hitherto supposed to have deterred the Empress of Russia born accom panying the Emperor hither, were stated generally to he questions of etiuette, a phrase which says nothing of itself, and leaves ,everything to be guessed ; at any rate they were certainly not political, and, with reference to her husband's wishes and intetests not very politic. She was assumed to have taken it very much amiss _ that the Emperor Louis - Napoleon 'should have decided to fix the meet . - ing to take place at Stuttgardt, rather than at the Court of her brother, the Grand Palm of Reese, with whom she has Leen staying hitherto. She was also supposed to object to meeting two persons who make so little scruple of admitting that they are parvenus, as the Emperor and Empress •of the French do. Those still closer initiated in the intimate gossip of the Grand-Ducal Court of Hessen ascribed her unwillingness to accompany the Emperor to other causes Which ever,,if any of them, may have been the correct reason, her scruples have at length been overe.omv, anti she will arive to-morrow. The Queen of the Netherlands (daughter of the King of Wurtem- berg by his first wife) with her - son, Prince Alexander, Prince Augustus of Wurtemberg, who has just received the command of the Third Prussian Army Corps, and the Grand-Duchess Helena, the 'sister of Prince Frederick, of Wur. temberg, have arrived here, on a visit to this Court, together with many smaller personages. Prince Gartschakeff, who accompanied the Etnpe ror hither yesterday, has had apartments assigned - him in the King's old Palace. Count Nesselrode and Count Kisseleff have bee❑ obliged to put up with ordinary hotel accommodation, for the Crown Prince's villa at Berg, where the Emperor is staying, is much too small to house any more than those who belong to the immediate family circle. In consequence of the Empress's approaching arrival, as it is understood, the ball that was to have been given to-night by the Minister of Fnrreige Affairs in honour of the distinguished diplomates now here, Gortschkoff, Nesselrode, Kisseleff and Wales/Ski, has been put off till to-morrow. • At eight o'clock this evening the King and his Imperial guest drove out to the soiree given by the Crown Pointe, in his villa at Berg, which was brit iiantly illuminated on the outside in a manner well fitted to show off to advantage the architectural beauties of the building. The road winding up to it in a-serpentine line around the mountain on which it is situate,was lighted by a row of Chinese lanterns along each side, and all along the tortuous wind ings of the road loading through the royal pall( towards the Crown Prince's villa, there were cable like torches placed at intervals, and flaring an un certain lurid light from high iron Cressets on the foliage of the trees, and the groups that surrounded them. In the royal park it was pleasing enough to see the brilliant equipages dashing along through the constantly alternating darkness and light, and then to distinguish their lamps winding up the mountain at Berg, between the double row of many-coloured lamps ; but the whole illumination of the Crown Prince's villa was outshone and eclipsed by a sheet of lights that was spread down on (hie side of the mountain, where a garden for public resort and amusement has lately been opened in connexion with a very extensive bathing estab lishmentsupp!ied by a most plentiful mineral spring. Here not only did the buildings of the establish ment form an extensive framework for the lights, but every terrace cut along the face of the declivity, and every path laid out over the side of the mountain, was marked by rows of lights, every grass plat was studded with artificial glow-worms, and the clusters of trees were turned to account as supports for festoons of lamps and Chinese lanterns. With the addition of Bengal lights, R 0113411 =dies, and rockets let off occasionally to light ut, for an instant the surrouniing masses of mountains looming in the distance, the scene was highly effective at a distance, but a nearer inspec tion brought to view thousands of forms flitting about the gardens that were neither forms of light nor beauty, but very plain homely Wurtem bergers, and moreover introduced the olfactories to a mixed odour from the fat burning in the' myriads of lamps, Wurtemberg..-tobacce, and wretched beer, that was far from perfume. This fearful consumption of tallow And fat in combustion was got_up regardless of expense by the proprietor, who is the Crown Prince's head gardener, in honour of the meeting of so many crowned h3ais at the elegant villa that overlooks the establishment, and accordingly the front of the building bore in brilliant transparency the initials W A.N K —King William of Wurtemberg, Emperors Alexander and Napoleon, and Crown Prince Karl. Yesterday evening the King and Queen of Wur temberg, with the Qae& of the Netherlands, occu pied a proscenium 13- ,- ,x at the performance of the French company now here ; the Emperor Alexander was present in the opposite box with the Crown Prince and Princess. Here again the Emperor Alexander fieur?d' only as a private guest related to the Royal family ; the State loge in the middle of the-first tier was not used, but will next Sunday contain the whole party from both palaces, on which occasion Balfe's opera' of the Bohemian Girl iA to be played ~as a gala performance under Kueken's direction'. After the play was over yes terday evening, the Emperor of Russia drove for some time about the town iu an open carriage. STUTTGARDT, SUNDAY, SEPT , 27 The Empress of lillS6dßilfi the Queen of Greece arrived here last night. Prince Luitpold of Bavaria is expected to day.. . The Prince of Prussia came to meet the Emperor Napoleon in Baden. The Emperors Alexander and Napoleon leave Stuttgardt to-morrow eveni - g for Dirmsta It. and very probably the latter will ftee - )lnpany the former to Weiuvr, and there met the Emperor of Austria and the King of Saxony. STUTTGA.RDT, MONDAY, SEPT. 28 The Emperor and Empress of Russia departed this day from Stuttgardt for Darmstadt. -,.._- INDIAN MUTINIES. • (con%) • The following is from a young otficer in.the Madras Fusiliers, stationed at Allahabad : Allahabad, August 2,1857. My dear --, I had hoped ere this to have been able to send you a description of my first battle; but, as luck will have it, here Lam 'leading a life of luxurious indolence, whilst the gallant Fusiliers are covering themselves with glory at Cawnpore. It was my fa'e to be, sent out -here three or four days ago, with a detachment of fifty men, to keep the inhabitants of this sacred city in order, .for the Mohnrrum; a grand festivaL of the Mahommedans, has just commenced, and it is expected ,that now, if ever, they will attempt to shake off Our yoke, and murder the hated Feringhees. You may imagine what arrant cowards they are , when fif t y men are sufficient to`lnep in check a population of nearly 80,000; it is true the fort is but.twir miles distant, and on the, first alarm a force would be dispatched to : our aid, but every man of us could be easily disposed of before it could arrive. When I came out here I was only second in command, but my senior received orders to return to the fort to-day, so that now "I am monarch of all T survey," and by next mail you may hear of law having distin guished myself in that delectable species of warfare • —street fighting. - We made a capture yesterday morning which rather astonished the weak minds of the natives. The authorities had received information that a number of the principal actors in the late distur bances here were concealed in the vicinity, and w e received orders to hold ourselves in readiness at daybreak to proceed to the place and make them prisoners. Our measures were taken with such secresy-that the natives were quitetff their guard, and we succeeded in capturing half a dozen " swells," and some sixty of their followers, without firing a shot. Alter securing our prisoners, We commenced a rogu!ar search for concealed papers and arms. and I wish you had been there with me to share the fun of diving into niggers' "sanctum sanctorumr," an 1 bringing to light all sorts of odd things I came across several precious stones and a number of robes perfectly stiff with gold em broidery, but I dared not touch them. However, I overcame my swuples so far as to carry off a copy of the Koran, and a curious doulle-pointed tnlwar with texts of the Koran inscribed on the blade', with two or three other things, which, some *of these days, perhapr, I may be able to send home to you A fter thoroughly ransacking the pi r'ce,we sent off the half-dozen "swells" under a sufficient escort to the fort, there to await their doom—banging, and tying the remaining sixty, at intervals to a long rope, we drove them back to our quarters in the city like so many cheep. Your quiet people at home would be surprised at the summary way iu which we string up the rascals ; but after the atrocities they have heed guilty of, no quarter ought to be shown them. My poor regiment has suffered fearfully during the short time it has been on service. We left Madras on the 1811 of May. upwards . of 900 strong, and now, between disease (ehietly cholera) and casualties in the field, we muster barely 700. We have.also lost t - :vo nffi3ers —one before,Cawnpore, anal the other in the sub sequent engagement in which one of our officers was severely wounded, his lower j tw being carried away by,a musket ball. Your revolver is my con stant companion now, and may yet serve me in good stew', but I must confess I much prefer a Colt's,—Your attached brother, * * * I am sorry to say, was young Richatdson, a fine gallant young officer of the Faghere, whom I had highly noticed at Benares for his gallan ry ; and young Seton, of the 61 Bengal Native Infantry, was wounded ; he was hit in tha lower jaw. He was an afle-decamp, and made so for his gallantry. The same afternoon the force was again engaged, and again defeated the rebels, taking all their guns—making a total of 20 guns taken, all of which they spiked, and completely gained the day. Notwithstanding this, on the 31st General Havelock returned to the bank of the river opposite Cawopose, where he sent to me for further reinforcements—requiring a battery, two r 24- poundere, and a thousand more European infantry. I have just wri . ten to him that there is half a battery coming on here to-day from Allahabad, which I send on at once to him. I can also send him two iron guns, but European infantry there is none to send him hero. If he waits fir that he must wait reinforcements from Calcutta and along delay, during which time Lucknow may share the fate which befel Cawnpore. The rebels, flushed with victory, will return on this, re-occupy Cawnpore, and I have no troops to keep them out. I must be starved out The influence, too, en Agra may be most disastrous, but I hope General Havelock, who has been so successful, will now advance again and relieve Lucknow, which is to be abandoned, the force -there brought in here, and by that time reinforcements will have arrived, ready to accompany General Havelock to Agra and Delhi. The European troops all wear linen blouses and caps; our regiment (the Fusiliers) wear blue ones, wh;ch in the native language is steel toppies; and the neel toppies are pronounce' the terror of all, with their Enfield rifles. They disperse cavalry 'beautifully. Two hundred of the 2nd Cavalry charged young Seton and twelve of our Fusiliers ; they sent them flying wil empty saddles. There is a repDrt just brought me that a Rajah has saved some gentlemen, ladies, aad three children from the Cawnpore massacre, that they are fif,y miles off, and that he will send therm in to me. The next mail will take all particulars. Each day may bring things to light, and my next letter I hope may convey satisfactory intelligence. SOCIETY FOR THE PROPOGATION OF THE GOSPEL IN FOREIGN PARTS. ANNUAL MEETING, LAST NIGHT. The annual meeting of the Society for the Propogation of ihe G..wspel in Foreign Parts was held in the Collegiate Institution, at half-past six o'clock, last night There was a numerous attendance in the galleries and body of the hall, and among the clergymen and other gentlemen on the platform were tho Lord Bishop of Montreal, Rev. D. ' Cronin, Bishop Elect of London, Canada West. the Venerable Archdeacon Jones, Rev. Rector Campbell, and the Revs. Dr Taylor, Dr. Hume, W. Badnall, W. H Fleming, W. White, T. Moeran, S. L. Ireland, S. W. Warr, J. W. W. Welsh, J. Lomas ' C W. Burton, T. Payne, Lingard, Power, Moore, C Wray, W. H. Denny, Wray, Hunt, Garrodi, W. Payne, J. North, B.:11, Morean, Moore, Butler. Powell, Satchel], Banner, Crump, King, T. D Anderson, H. Banner, Webster, Rounthwai e, it W. Preston, H Glazebrook, and E Falloan, ENV. The chair was taken, amid loud applause, by the Lord Bishop of Chester. The Secretary, the Rev. Mr. WAR; opened the proceed leg; with a prayer. Lordship. the CHAIRMAN, then expressed his grati fication at meeting that asFemblage, and introduced the miyobers of the deputation, the Right Rev. Dr. Pafford, Bishop of Montreal; the Right Rev. Dr. Cronin, Bishop ilect of London, Canada West, a newly founded di )cese; the Rev. Mr. White, and the Rev. Mr. Badnall. He observed that he thought they might promise them selves very interesting information as to missionary labours in variona• parts of the world. H a right rev. brethren from Canada would tell of what was going forward in those provinces which had been CO ling connected with the English crown by un broken ties of allegiance and fidelity, ties which he hoped never would be broken, and which he hoped their episcopal church would, through Christ, be the means of drawing further and tighter than they were before ; then again they should hear from other members of the deputation, some accounts, he supposed of the progress an 1 propec a of missionary work in Africa, that great continent which had been hitherto and still was so imper fectly explored, but which at the p event time had been made known to them far better than it was before, by that enterprising traveller and christian philanthropist, Dr. Livingstone. (Cheers.) The accounts which Dr. Lisiog stone had given, and the actual epecimens which he had brought to England of the natural productions of Africa, showed plainly that providence, kind to all, had scattered its bounties even there—had scattered the seeds f plenty there ; a d that by the rela inns of commerce end by the intercharge of mutual benefits, the vast con inent of Africa was capable of being brought into union and harmony with the great family of the civilised nations of the earth. To this they must look through a long vir.ta of years, but still he thought they might humbly look, in hope, forward to the time, however distant it might be, *heu European cisilisation should have penetrated, softened, and humanised Africa with its blessirg I, and with that gr ates - of all blessitgs, the light, the truth, and the salvation of the gespel of Jesus Cerise (Applause.) His Lordship then said : And now I should very gladly, for I know by experience how the time cf the meeting passes away, sit down at once, and leave the rest of the time to those speakers who have come here with the express purpose of addressing you; but before I sit down, my iriends, I wish to add a few words about the sad events wh ch have occurred recently in another quarter of the world—events which have filled all hearts wile grief and wide indignaticn, and which, also, for the time, have cast a gloomy shade over ore vast field of missionary lebaurs. I need scarcely state that I am referring to the perfidious mutiny, and the atrocoue cruelties which have so lately occurred in India. My friends, it is right for us, it is the first thing we ouglr to do, to humble ourselves before Almighty G id, individually and naion ally, under the sad and unexpected visitation—and we are about to do so But let me say, that in humble di pendence upoe God's blessing, it is also right that we shoul,l rouse ourselves, and nerve ou-selvea to meet the crisis. A noble spirit has been shown already in yo sr own town. Wren was Liverpool ever wanting in public spirit, or in patriotic spirit ? A noble spirit has been shown now, in the contributions which have been so prompt'y and so large'y made for the relief of the unfortunate sure ferers. I understand that, al e .dy. the contributions amount to £l2 000 - and, I have no doubt, that they will reach a muele higher sum. (Hear, hear, and cheers.) A noble spirit has been shown here ; and let me say that a ncble spirit has been shown in India, also, by our little handfuls of brave soldiers, who when bravely led, have either held at bay or scattered in flight she dastard rebels, although tenfold and one hundredfold superior in numbers to themselves. (Applause.) I hope that long ere th's, bat at least ere this, reinforcements have reached the little bands, which will enable them to carry on the contest on mere even terms, a d I think God's blessing wilt bring it to a triumphant close. (Cheers.) God g ant that our soldiers may be victorious, and may He a eo grant that they may use that victory with mode ration and with mercy. (Lend cheers.) My friends, I have no wish to speak with any effeminate softness about crimes which have made every manly heart burn with in dignant resentment. No doubt, when the hour of victory comes, there will be a severe retribution exacted for the crimes which have been committel. Only 1-t us hope and pray that it may not be more than a righteous retribu tion—that it may be the firm stroke of justice vindicating the outraged rights of humanity, rather than any barbarous reta'iation of sanguinary revenge. (Hear, hear.) God grant the victory to our soldiers, and grant also that that victory may nos be tarnished by any barbarity, any cruelty, any in'ant's blood, or woman's dishonour. (Hear, hear.) I trust and hope that, through God's blessing on the right ful cause, the mutiny will be crushed. I trust that our power will be re eatablished in India upon a more firm .and solid basis than ever it was before. I trust that it will be the happy privilege of England to civilize India—to christianize India. I say to christianize India. No real policy can ever forbid such efforts as this society is making —as the Church Missionary Society is making, for the propagation of the Go pel in India. (Hear, hear.) No reel policy can ever require the discontinuance, the aban donment, of these efforts. God forbid. What real policy requires is only this, that we shall not seek to make con verts by force, by compulsion, by the pressure of official authority or cons mine (Hear, hear) If this is the language of policy, it is also the Language and spirit of the G isper of J sus Christ itself. Its great commission is to make disciple s of all nations, not by force—that would be to make, re( t believers, but hypocrites. Its commission is to make disciples, not by 'force but by persuasion, by conviction, by example, by the Word of God preached to their ears through tne voices of the missionaries, and carried home to their hearts by the grace of the Holy Spirit—that is the Gospel rule—let 'it be the rule of policy also. (Hear, hear.) When it shall be the pleasure of Gud that peace and order are again restored to India, common, sense, common prudence would require this of ua—that we should not offer violence, that we should not of insult to the opinions of the native population, but it would not require us to discontieLe the preaching of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Sri 1, let the missionaries preach the Gospel there to those who are willing to hear. Still let missionaries be sent forth from England more than they have ever been before and I am coLfi lent that more and more will be ready to go in the face of all the dangers, and all tee. horrors there. (Hear, hear.) Let them be sent .ey to pr. ach there the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ in the spirit of peace and charity, and let those of our country men who really wish to aid the cause, aid it in that way which is for them the most effectual and the best, by setting be ore the natives in their own conduct an example of a Christian life Let us look forward with hope that when plea is restored, the voice of the Gospel will be heard more widely than ever it was before. Let it be the aim of us all to do wha ever is done in the spirit of gentleness and peace. Against that no policy can protest. That is the direction and the spirit of the Gospel of our Lord Jcsue Christ, and that is the mode of propagating the Gospel, which we may humbly live that G d will blet,s and prosper. (Hear, and applause.) His lordship then elcvently exhorted the m‘eing to assist, by every means at their command. the objects of the society, in the spirit he had pointed oat, and couclu led amid renewed applause. Oa the conclusion of his lordship's address, The Vematab!e Archdeacon JONES rose, and, with the permission of the Right Rev. Chairman, read the tele graphic news from India, which had not long been received in Liverp 01. He was listened to with painful interest. Tue Rev. Mr. Fneai NO, organising secretary for the dioceses or Manchester and Chester, moved the first reso lution, which was to the effect that the meeting desired devoutly to give glory to God for that measure of mercies with which it had pleased Him to bless 'he late labours of the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign ' Parts. He observed that those mercies were many, and that they were shown in the increasing number of their missiona. ies, in the enlarged sphere of their labours, and in the increasing support and sympathy which the society was receiving at home. lie made a passing allusion to the events which are now occurring in India, and expressed a hope that the ground which was now being sown with the blood of martyrs, as well as with the blood of English soldiers would raise up that glorious monument which was ever to be raised flora such , a seed-bed—the increase and growth of that everlastieg tree el life, and the spread of the knowledge of the un searchable riches of Christ, which alone are to be foand in • the ckspels. proof of the advance of the society, he mentioned that in America, since the establishment of th sc c'ety, the number of clergy had increased from 200 to 1800; in Africa, within 37 years they had increased from 15 to 3 bishops and 90 clergy; in India, from 1 bisbop to 3 bishops and 60 clergy ; and a proportionate increase had taken place in Australia, Borneo, New Zeal nd, Mauritius, and Ceylon, besides initiating missionary labours in Vancou ver's Island and otherquartere. Moreover, the income of the soeieiy last year amounted to £101,470, and in this year, up to the present time, its receipts were more by i 3,66 than in the corresponding reriod cf the previous year. In conclusion, the rev gentleman briefly detailed the ex periences of missionary labours which he had acquired at the Cape, while acting there as military chaplain in 1849 and subsf quent years. The Bight Rev Dr. FULTORD, Bishop of Montreal, seconded the motion By the resOution, he said, they acknowledged their thankfulness to God for the mercies which he had vouchsafed to them, but the expression of that thankfulness wes not all that was required f them—they were bound to show it by their futut e c snd ace. This was an age of great luxury in every department of life, an 1 how might all of them, by denying themselves some of those luxu res—come expensive article of d. ess or livinn—promote the glory of God, a m ud be doing rood to their souls, by ieroving themselves in that self-denial whish alone could make their charity sup has it ought to he. His lordship the' briefly traced the history of the church in Canada, and showed that its position in Montreal, which was the seat of Canadian Roman Catholicism, was 0113 weended with many diffi u'ties. Nevertheless, in the large church of Montreal last year the; collected £2 651, and in the next trgest church £1,763, and if they still sought fur some assistance from their brethren in England, it was not because his people were niggardly themeelyrs. (Hear, hear.) He had served in many churches in Englund, in rich rural parishes, in a mtucfacturing town, and in an opulent London cEstrica and he was bold to say he had never met any coegregation who were more ready and willing, according to their mcars, to give cut of their substance for works of piety and charity than his people in Montreal. (lleer, hear.) While Canada was flourishing as a whole, the members of the church in Montreal were a snail baud struggling through the difficuLies that snr roended th,m, and receiving wi'h t ankfulness, and looking with ccnti'lence ti their brethrm in Engler' 1 to help them yet a little while. Before they could dispense with that help. it was necessary that they sh ould have two things— a Collegiate Institution capable of training up and set ding forth native clergy, and also a strong garrison of mis sionaries. The first they already had in a sense ehat infant state, but the other they had still to collect, and they should therefore yet look to this coun ry for assistance. Er gland was great in her gore nmenr, great in her aristocracy, great in her people, bet ab:ve all, great in her merchants and her commerce. It was only by the expansive power of her great mercantile interest, that she could keep up with the progress of the people rid the world around her, and where, so much as at Liverpool, were they to look for the exemplification of that weer, powsr ? (Hear, hear) He believed that a Society sech as this, which had done so much—which had founded so many churches, and given them a permanence and stalnlis y—deserved t m support of the churchmen of Liverpool, and that it would find it. (Applause.) The rssolution was adophed, after which a collection was made, while Bishop lleber's magnificent hymn was being sung. The Right Rev. Dr. Caoxisr, Bishop Eicct of London, West Canada, proposed the second resolution, which entorced the necessity of increased missionary exertions He referred to the Indian muiny, and said that God never allowed such visitations to fatl upon any country but for some good purpose If they then regarded those sufferings as chastening; at the hand of God, it became them to inquire for what had they been chastised—for what had they as a nation—fur what had they as a church, for what had they as a people, been chastised thus grievously in India? (Hear, hear.) He thought the question was one which demanded the clearest and finest investigation, and that the question should be approached by them in the most prayerful spirit. (Hee-, hear) He thought there were some pr.-minent causes, which could easily be assigned upou which they could lay their finger at once, as bringing down in part, if not altcgather, that chastening upon the people and the church in India. He would mention, first the condi:tat of the country as a nation to India. Had Engisni, as a nation, perf firmed her Christian du y toward; India? Had England, as a nation, upheld the butter cf Christ in India? Hai England, as a nation, done all that in her lay to promote the know ledge cf the Gospel among the heathen troops of India ? Most assuredly, England had not done so as a nation. (Hear, hear.) Most assuredly, on the contrary, England had been unfaithful to her duty in that respect. Most assuredly, the government of India had impeded as mush as in its power lay the progress of the Gospel among the people ; and the very men from whom the evil was now coming —the very troops who had mutinied, had been protected by the Government. It was a false protection, and a wrong use of the expression, but it had been employed. Ttey had been protected by the Government from the efforts of the missionaries to spread Christianity among them. (Hear, hear.) Wae not that a cry ing evd ? Was not that a sin which they should con sider as one deserving of punishment? Let them not, however, heap all the blame upon the Government. Let them not seek to shelter themselves under that cause, and say that that was the only reason of their chastity ; had they by their christian conduct and christian graces shown that their religion was a better system than the dep•aved systems around them ? They had not, it was to be feared (Hear, hear) Xtheugh efforts had been mad° by missionaries, and by godly men as individuals, yet the mass of our people Caere had fo gotten God, and had not honored God in India. (Hear, hear.) Was not that to be regarded as a rause of the chas tisement which had come upon the land ? He believed they might trace the evils which had taken place there lately, the horrors at which the blooil ran cold, to these causes c )njointly—the unchristian conduct of the Governs ment in ignoring christianity in India, and setkirg to retard its progress ; and immorallty, the vice, and the un-Christian practice of many of cur people there. (Hear, hear) Let them view those things honestly and in the light of truth. (Hear, hear.) Let them speak plainly concerning 'hose events, and, humbling themselves in the very dust before God, let them entreat his mercy and say that they had all, government, church, and people. grieviously sinned (Hear, hear ) In conclusion, his Lordship gave an inter. sting ace unt of the cor dltion of the church in Canada, and particularly in his own diocese. The Rev. Mr. Wnere seconded the resolution in an address in so hich he gave an interesting account of the condition of society in British Caffearia, and the progress of Gospel labours there. The resolution was carried by ac lamation. The proceedings then eosed with a vote of thanks to the Bishop of Chestee, which was moved by the Rev. Rector CA NI PREM. and seconded by the Rev. W F. TAYLOR.

LETTER FROM GENERAL NEILL. TheAyr Observer has been favoured with the following extract of a letter from General Neill, dated Cawnpote, August 1 : I left Allahtbad on the 16th and joined general Havel Rk's force on the 21st, and found poor Major Renaud had been severely wounded. His horse was first shot under him, a bullet then hit him above the knee, forcing part of the scabbard of his sword into the wound, and causing much suffering. Amputation seemed to afford great relief, arid be appeared doing well; when he suddenly expired, comparatively free tem pain. Ho had done right well, and will b 3 sircerely mourned in the regiment (the Fas,leers), in which he was much respected and esteemed. Since I arrived hero I have been hard at work to get order re established. I hive now put a atop to the plundering I found going on, by re-organising a police. lam also collecting all the property of the deceased, and trying to trace if any have survived, but as yet have not succeeded in finding one. Man, woman, and child seem all to have been murdered. As soon as that monster, Nana Sahib, beard of the success of our troops and of their having forced . the bridge about 20 miles from Cawnpore, he ordered the wholesale butchery of the poor women and children I find the officers' servants behaved shamefully, and were in the plot, all but the lowest caste ones. They deserted their masters and plundered them. Whenever a rebel is caught, he is immediately tried, and: unless he can prove a defence he is sentenced to be hanged at once ; but the chief rebels or ringleaders I make first clean up a certain portion of the pool of blood, still two inches deep, in the shed were the fearful murder and mutilation of women and children took place. To touch blood is most abh3rent to the high caste natives ; they think by doing so they doom their souls to perdition. Let them think so. My object is to inflict a fearful punishment fur a revolting, cowardly, barbarous deed, and to strike terror into those rebels. The first I caught was a subadar or native officer, a high taste Brahmin, who tried to resist my order to clean up the very blood he had helped to shed ; but I made the provost marshal do his duty, and a few lashes soon made the miscreant accomplish his task. When done, he was taken out and immediately hanged, and after death buried in a ditch on the road-side. No one who has wit nessed the 'scenes of murder, mutilation and massacre can ever listen to the ward mercy, as applied to those fiends. The well of mutilated bodies —alai, containing upwards of 200 women and children—l have had decently covered in, and built up as one large grave. lam in the entrenched camp—a most miserable position. None but Englishmen could have held it for a day, and yet how nobly did poor Sir 11. Wheeler Mold out here. On the 29th General Havelock moved on towards Lucknow. He had not gone far before he came on a strong post of the enemy— about 20,000, with guns. He defeated them gallantly, and took all their guns, but sustained comidemble loss, Amongst the ntunbor, ALARM TN CALCUTTA.

Things are getting worse, and there is a probability of a proclamation coming out for all ladies to leave Calcutta.
