liciastsay to the Oovarnmiat of India.

Connell Chenille, the 16th Jute, 1858.

The Bombay Gazette has not yet seen fit to reveal
the authority on which this circumstantial, and ap-
parently malicious story was palmed upon it, ►ut it
is certainly due to the character of the Indian press
to make it known. The last advice, from the pro-
vince are dated Lucknow, 21st July, and inform as
that the policy of conciliation pursued by Mr. Mont-
gomery was slowly but surely detaching the Talook-
dare from the rebel side, and that the cause itself
will collapse, as soon as we are able to afford effi-
cient protection to those who openly declare for as.
We are disposed to yield fall credence to this assur-
ance. At present we are not in circumstances to

afford them protection, and we can hardly expect,
until our influence is dominant in the province, that
these men will expose themselves to the resentment
of the rebel leaders. The Begum is now besieging
Maun Sing in the neighbourhood of Fyesbed, for
his supposed leaning to dbr cause, and has offered a
reward for his head; and until the powerful rebel
foram which now hold the country to the north,
seat, and month of the capita], are confronted by oar
armies, the Talookdars will content themselves by
mere protestations of their deMze to return to
loyalty when they can do weakly. For the relief
of Marra Sing and to occupy Fyzabad, Sir Hope
Grant left Lucknow on the 21st ultimo, with the
following force:-Ist Madras Fusiliers, 2nd Batta-
lion Rifle Brigade, H. M. 7th Human, Hodson's
Hone, Ist Regiment Punjaub Infantry, with twelve
light guns and a heavy siege train.
We now hold the military road between Cawn-
pore and Imcknow ; the route on to Nawalgunge
beyond the capital ; and a strip of country a few
miles bread along the north of this line throughout
its extant. General Grant's advent* on Fysabed
will probably give as the command of that road
also, and little more can then be dons until the cold
weather permits the re-opening of the campaign.
It is not improbable that ere then the rebels may
lave melted away. The force which the Begun
was organising at Boondee she is unable to
retain, the men deserting in large numbers
leaving their arms behind them. The latter fact is
very suggestive. The rebel treasury we believe is
exhausted, and it is confidently stated that the mis-
creant Nana has been compelled, by extreme straits,
to aell his fames ruby of fabulous value to a native
banker for 10,000 rupees.

Ow contemporary prooseds, aeesediag to custom,
to attribute the delay in reducing this jungle rabble
to lad Canning's incapacity. It was an amnesty
that was to quiet Oude bur mouths ago, and now it
is an amnesty that is to disperse these Jugdeepore

and convert them into honest men:

They would Game to resist were tbsy certain of humanity.
They would quietly disperse could they be amazed that mos
would be looked after in their villages. But of this some
ars not certain, and others, who ham males& at the muldsr
of Europeans, know that for them the day of mercy is past.
The " uldtoate intentions " of the Govesor-General for the
one party an of no avail, and the other% if they emu hear
of them, will scarcely credit them. But a ith steady, quiet

ve may even clear Shababad in tha ra+Mi.

DoubUess, without say amnesty, we trust, to
stand in the way of hanging a fair proportion of
them, for their cold-blooded atrocities upon the
ryots of the district in the last two months. As an
instalment of this retribution, we learn by telegram,
dated 18th July, that a party of eight picked men of
Captain Rattray's corps being sent out to catch
Sungram Sing, his brother Raday Sing, and his
nephew and sons, met with entire moons. They
disguised themselves as mutinous Sepoys, and suc-
ceeded in bringing in Sungram Sing alive, and the
heads of the others :

Berm Beg having committed some murders In the
neighbourhood of Bee, and the road befog completely
closed by him, I sent out a party of eight picked men from
my regiment, with orders to bring in or kill degree Nag.
This party seceded most signslly . they disguised them-
selves se mutinous Sepoys, brought In Sungram Bing last
night and Med his tether (who is the men who committed
the lets murders by Eiangrum Sine. orders), b's sons,
nephew, and grandsons, amounting in all to nine persons,
bringing in their heads. At this capture all the people of
the south are much rejoiced. The hills for the present are
dear alveoli. I shall try Songrant Sing to-morrow.

It bat least doubtful whether an amnesty be the
right weepon with which to attack the daeoits of
our jungles.

RAJPOOTANA.

The Gwalior fugitives under Tenth. Topee did
not venture to advance upon Jeypoor in presence of
General Roberts, but turned southwards to Tonk,
where they managed to loot the town before the
Nureerabad force, which wu at their heel',
arrived. They now continued their flight in the
direction of Boondee, pursued by Colonel Holmes,
with a force of Cavalry and Horse Artillery de-
tached by General Roberto. By our last advice% the
General was still at Took on the 19th July, and
Colonel Holmes's detachment on the 17th was me
march behind the main body of the rebel., now re-
duced to 3,000 in number, and making for the
Chumbul. The 11-iend of India states that we
have been strengthening our Deccan station% in an-
ticipation of a visit from Tanta Topes. We have
heard no confirmation in Bombay of this, nor, we
may add, of the extraordinary announcement con-
tained in the same summary, that General Jacob has
occupied Quetta with his outposta.
