A brigade raw._
greatly disappointed us, as we were led to expect
that the old garrison would be sent back to Cawn-
pore. Here we are, without clothes for oar half-
starved men, and not half tents enough, each regi-
ment having to 'supply several pickets with a pro-
portion of two captains and three subalterns to com-
mand them ; and our reduced force, weakened by
bad living in Lucknow, is to keep Alum-
bagh against any attacks from the enemy,
who are numerous and now confident. They
have already commenced playing upon us
with their guns, an earnest of what we may
expect after a short time, when they have
had time to get their guns in position. However,
all is for the beet. lam daily expecting my Eng-
lish letters of the 13th October mail ; the papers I
have already seen. It is very gratifying to see the
kind and liberal spirit evinced by the public in get-
ting up the Indian relief fund. The mutiny seems to
be the all•absorbing topic in all the journals, and I
suppose will continue to be so as long as it affords
such panful interest to all classes. You will have
heard of the death of General Havelock. He died
at Dilkooshah, the country palace of the King in
the Martiniere, after a few days' illness, of dysen-
tery. The other brigades started from here for
Ca;vnpore this morning. I saw Utterton, of the
Ord, yesterday, and was very pleased to see him
spin so little altered.
We have had a large addition to our officers and
men within the last few days. We now sit down
some 18 to mess, and can muster about 600 on pa-
rade—a small regiment certainly, but our losses have
been heavy, and some are still away on detachment
duty. I escape all the drudgery—s. e., picket duties
and parades, and am always mounted and accom-
pany the commanding officer on field service, and
wry about orders, &c., for him. It was in the act
of delivering an order to the commanding amour
from the staff that my poor animal was shot. My
saddle and holsters, cloak and plaid, &0., were all
lost I and at the rate inch things are selling fir now
at auctions, they are worth more than I gave for
theeiginally. I hope, however, to get
lion for 'he horse when I make a formal
for it.

forfeit-box. _ _

iiresCireme stated that her mother received a few young
ladles ea boarder scholars, and they kept a box in which the
pupils had to put small some of money as for-
feits if they spoke English during the day or broke
I say other rule of the house. The box was full a short
time since, and one of the young ladies drew her attention
subsequently to the fact that it was nearly empty as the box
was exceedingly light. They frequently noticed 'that money
MS taken out of the box, and at last she determined upon
marking some pieces. These were alas taken, and still they
were unable to detect the culprit. However, on Monday
night, they marked • threepenny-piece and a fourpeony-
piece, sa wall as sixpence-halfpenny in coppers. The money
was placed in the box, and on the following day the three-
penny-piece was discovered to be missing. She then deter-
mined upon examining the servant., as she could not
tell whether it was the cook or the housemaid who had taken
the money. Both of them readily consented to be searched,
sad upon searching a work box in the kitchen, which the
prisoner said belonged to the cook, but which proved to be
the prisoner own property, they discovered several marked
which bad been taken out of the forfeit-box
ea e former occasion. Upon searching the prisoner's trunk
they found in a purse the marked threepenny

property of some of the young ladies M the house. The pri-
soner at first denied the robbery, but afterwards said she get
the money oat of the box by means of a penknife.
Mr. legbase asked what was done with the forfeit money.
Miss C said the money-box was only opened once
every half year, end there was no doubt the contents would
ham been given to the poor.
Mr. Ingham inquired if any character had been received
with the prisoner.
Moe Cameo said unfortunately there had not. They were
in want of a servant, as the cook was ill, and they engaged
the primmer.
The accused, who seemed to feel her position most
acutely, admitted taking the money.
Mr. Ingham said he would remand her for a week is
order to ascertain if anything was known against her.
