Secretary to the Government of India, Military
Department.

With reference to these reward; the Governor-Oemeral
gamin another general order dated
ai 8 :
The colors and ma of e zegiamenta mot
rushy their fall of soknow pigment from a higher
authority than that of Governor-General in council ; but
it will be
her • government and the Hon. Court the=.dsaty of his lordship in coundl to ex-
press to rt of
Directors of the India Company, in the strongest
terms, the recommendation of them to that favour fur which
Mtijor-Osseral Biz James Outram so justly pleads.
• Meanwhile It is a gratification to the Governor-General
in council to direst, in a Beal order of this day, that the
rewards sad honours therein specified shall be at coos
awarded lo the saes,, and men of the two seevioes and to
the civilians respectively.
" This nodes newt not be closed without mention of those
toile weals who, little fitted to take part in such songs,
have ammeed so &awfully and discharged so earnestly their
tea el charity in ministering to rickness and pain. It is
likely that to themselves the notoriety of prates publicly
given may be distasteful; yet the Governor-Ostend in
council cannot forego the ploutun of doing justice to the
names of Birch, Polehaxopton, Barber, and Gall, and of
offering to those whose acts have so adorned them his tribute
of respectful admiration end gratitude.
" The history of the defence of the Residency of Lucknow
does not and with the narrative of Brigadier Inglis ; but no
full reports of the course of erects at Lacknow subarquently
to the junction of Sir Henry Havelock's force with the de-
fenders, or of the final and rff&dual relief by the advance of
the Commander-in-Chief, have yet Wu received. It is
known, however, that the success which has carried joy to
so men aching hearts has been clouded by the death within
the last few days of one of the first soldiers of India, Major-
Genera Mr Henry Havelock.
" The Oovernor-Oeneral in council deeply deplores the lose
of this able lender and truly brave men who has ban taken
from the service of his country at a ale when he can least
be spared, though not before he had won for hinumalf lasting
renown, and had received at the hands of his Sovereign the
gracious and prompt recognition of his merits.
