LONDON, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 14.

AGOORDING to a Telegram which will be found
in another column, Lacknow wen entirely in the
hands of our troops on the 19th of March, and order
was beginning to be re-established in Ouds. The
townspeople and villagers were beginning to resume
their occupations, looking to the British Government
for protection. The principal landholders had ten-
dered their submission, and it had been accepted.
MN. Oat and Miss JACKSON were safe at head-
quarters; sad the admission of the insurgent
Talooirdan to terms, would seem to imply a oonvio-
tion on the part of the English authorities that their
revolt had not been stained by wanton massacre,
and a hope that other European fugitives might yet
be brought in.
The disturbances in Hindustan cannot, however,
even yet be regarded u at an end. Owing to
the detention of Sir HUGH Roer's force before
Bangor, the circle of troops intended to be drawn
round the mutineers and insurgents congregated in
Lacknow had not been completed. It is estimated
that some 6,0,000 of the enemy have made their
*soaps into Robilcand or Bundelcand. True, they
would seem to have left most of their artillery
behind them, for 117 guns are said to
have been captured in the city ; still 60,000
desperate men with their small arms, scattered over
the country, may give a vest deal of trouble. More-
over, there are said to have been about 30,000 men
in front of Sir Hum Rosa in the vicinity of
Jhansi on the 21st of March ; and at Botch also,
which General Roman only reached on the 11th
of the same month, a considerable body of rebel.
were assembled. Everything, in .short, seems to
prognosticate a kind of Pindaree warfare among the
jungles during the hot months, and the consequent
loss of many a good soldier on our part.

non the answer given last night by Mr. Ms-
itsti.l to the question of Mr. Wpm regarding OUS
diplomatic functionaries at Turin, we learn that it is
not tie intention of the present Government to visit
with any mark of their displeasure the conduct of
Sir ;axis HUDSON, but that they have recalled
Mr. inn= lie England, and inflicted upon him
the pemshy d Glacial suspension. In other words,
the Mir If the Minister is overlooked, while that of
the Ihmeatary if Legation is severely punished; and
the man of ducal connexions is reprieved, while the
man of lees fortunate family pretensions is con.
dunned. Great services, said the CHANCRLLOR
of the ESC'S:MOVER, cannot be obliterated by
a single fault. We agree in the sentiment, and
concur in the exoneration of Sir Jams HUDSON.
Bat precisely because we agree in the senti-
ment, we mut altogether repudiate the par-
tiality of which Mr. ERSKINE has been made the
victim. No man in the diplomatic service, of his age
OS standing, has truer or better services to plead in
extenuation of an isolated inadvertence than the
gentleman who has filled for several years past the
office of Secretary at Turin. It is no disparagement
to an upright and excellent Plenipotentiary to say,
that the mat onerous portion of the functions of
the Legation there have been performed by
the second in command. The utmost confidence
and harmony has, we believe, subsisted between
them; and to this may in a great degree be attri-
buted the vigour and consistency, combined with
urbanity and caution, which have characterised the
Legation during a period of ne ordinary diMenlty.
Every real friend to the maintenance of English
influence in Italy would have regretted the removal
of Sir Janis HI:UsON from his pat; every such
friend will regret the removal of Mr. ERSKINR.
Technically we do not affect to justify the deviation
hem literal accuracy into which the latter wee
006 1y: betrayed, when rendering Lend
Cumannon's despatch of the 29th l)evembear
into the form of a nets to be presented to the
Piedmontese Minister kir Foreign Affairs.
Neither should we :rouble ourselves with any poig-
nant concern had Lord kistezanuar, as chief dis-
ciplinarian for the time being of British diplomates,
felt called upon to record his displeasure at the
fault, and to warn the Secretary who copied
a draft without comparing it, and the Plenipo-
tentiary who signed a note without reading it, that
such errors must not be allowed to happen again.
But, under all the circumstances of the case as it
stands, we own that we view with mingled feelings
of distrust and disgust this new offering of a scape-
goat. In Imperial as well as in local affairs,
and in the conduct of States as well se that
et individuals, the tendency of an set and its
intention are both to be considered. Lord MAUR&
star violates the rule in both ways. Mr.Enstina's
error of transcription might, in his lordship's opinion,
have led to national embarrassment, but he cannot
for an instant suppose that it was wilful or inten-
tional. As regards the act, therefore, he looks only to
the possible consequence, and utterly ignores the
moral intent. But when dealing publicly with the
tried and faithful servant of the cotuitry, Lord
HALILLSBURT does just the reverse. Professing a
desire only to maintain rigidity of discipline, he
publicly disgraces one of the only two men in Italy
on whom we have hitherto relied for the main.
tenant* of British influence there. Re utterly disre-
gards the tendency of his act, and pedantically relies
upon its officially assumed intention. Now, we
