We take the following intelligence from the Calcutta
ffegliateuus of the 22nd of December :
" We hear from Goruckpore that Mummoo Khan and
Khan Bahadoor Khan have at last been sent to the
British authorities. They arrived at headquarters'
camp on the morning of the 11th, both so isckl that
they had to be carried in doolles. They were imme-
diately put under • guard of H.M.'s 54th, and will be
put in irons. Muinmoo Khan is a mild, effeminate-
loJking man of about thirty-five, and when in condition
probably was like • fat, well-to-do Baboo ; now, how-
ever, his body is nothing but bones, his face much
swollen from the Teraie fever: his hair is long and cut
square on the back of his head like • khitioutgar ; he
wears no hair on his face except a short iumutache. He
was very anxious to explain that he was not taken, but
had given himself up to Jung. He is a man of low origin,
having been a kind of chuprasse about the Ouch Court on
four rupees a month, until the Begins took • fancy to him,
and he was promoted to different offices through her
influence till he was at length made a Nawab. Khan
klaliadoor Khan was at one time • Sadder Aumer, and
• pensioner at Bareilly at the time of the mutiny. He
is an old, decrepid man of ieveuty, with • long white
beard. The mutineers amide him Civil Governor at the
mum time they made Bukht Khan their General. He
is a man of good family in Robilcund, and was much
respected by the natives. Khan Bahadoor Khan was
caught by Sir Jung himself on the way to Katinandhou.
Whilst out shooting they saw an elephant, and, nut
knowing whether it was a wild one or not, they went
up to it carefully and suddenly came on • small body of
men. One of them sitting on • bed got up and asked
Sir Jung what he wanted, on which he asked who be
was, and Sir Jung, on finding who he had captured,
immediately sent him under • guard to Captain Hill,
who sent him to headquarters camp at Dekarhe.
There is a native rumour that the Begun' poisoned her-
self immediately she heard that her lover was being
sent in, but it has not yet been authenticated. From
the best account there appears to be only about 1,000
rebels of all kinds retnainntg. Amongst them are ex
or seven chiefs who must be accounted for. 100 mur-
derers, under • strong guard, started on the 10th on
their way to Captain Chamberlain, at Lucknow, for
him to investigate and put on their trial."
A correspondent of the Times says.—" The Nana, it
is now known, died of fever some few weeks ago.
Asionsollah, his chief adviser in the Cawnpore massacre,
survived him only a few days. This is the wan who
travelled in England, and received such extraordinary
letters from English ladies—l have read a bundle of
them myself—and who believed, it is said, that their
slaughter would terriy England into the surrender of
India. Hunger, disease, and exposure did their work
on about • dosen more—among them Khoda Buksh, the
rebel Genir-al ; and Dabee Butsli, of (lends; Margot
Singh, of Bands; Purwau Sing. of Asinigurb ; Guoleb
Sitgh, of Burrs; Baines Madboo, of Shunkerpore ;
Khan Ally Khan, of Lucknow ; and Hurdeo Persuad,
Chuckladar of Hyderabad."
