SPORTING INTELLIORISCR.

A SPECIAL EDMON at the N =PRESS;
esetairdag the results of the day's Races, ia pab-
Behold every evening during the Spatting Season, at
six o'clock.

THE more detailed accounts just received from
the seat of hostilities in India confirm the conviction
that the great and terrible drama of insurrectionary
war has lost whatever unity of plan and purpose it
might once have pearlised, and dwindled down into
• confused and disconnected eerie. of isolated efforts
—the marauding feats of partisan leaders, or the
stubborn resistance of feudatory *hie& Central
India has been the principal theatre of the compli-
cated movements which, during the fortnight covered
by the last despatches, have exercised the activity of
war eceassamiers and signalised the valour of oar
talooPlL

of Tarn*

The marches and _
Torn, the ablest of the insurgent leaden
who still keep the field, resemble in their
intricacy and rapidity the doublings of sole
beast of chase, still contriving, against desperate
odds, to elude an overwhelming force of pursues,.
This active partisan, in has endeavour to beak away
into the wilds of Rajpootana, was enomminrok
may be remembered, by General Roinztra, and b.
hated with considerable loss. His position them
appeared desperate. Further advance in the only
direction where a reasonable chance of escape lay
was out of the question. Nothing remained bat to
fall back en the Chasibul, to re-cross that river if
possible, and then to make what head he might
against the different British detachments which wen
sure to be speedily on his track. He had htat
his gags—he had last his treasure ; so hey►
less did his position appear that Genital
ROll3lll, falling back on Nusseerabad, Isft
to one of his lieutenants the task of intercepting him.
Colonel PAM, the officer to whom this duty fell,
failed in accomplishing it. TANTIA TOPES, unen-
cumbered with baggage or artillery, made his way
over mountains and across riven (in six days he is
said to have crossed as many stream), and fiaally
succeeded in placing the Chumbul between himself
and his pursuers. Though he had thus secured Imme-
diate safety, he had done no more. He was without
stores, guns, or treasure. It was necessary to obtain
them. Jahlra Penn, a large and wealthy city at
no great distance from the point w►ere his pause
was effected, offered the means of supplying his
wants. The place was attacked, and carried
after a short resistance. Forty pieces of new
artillery, with abundance of ammunition and warlike
stores, fell into the possession of the captor*, and the
wealthy bankers and merchants of the place were
only allowed to escape an indiscriminate plunder on
payineut of a fine of 100,0001. turrlA Tome had
again an army, a perk of artillery, and a treasure
chest. His movements, however, were closely
watched. It was on the 27th of August that he
had made his successful dash at Jahlra Paten. On
the Ist of September, the movements of the British
compelled lira to evacuate it, and he again 00012-
mowed a system of marching and counter-manhing.
By eonaiderable dexterity he contrived to sleds
attack till the 15th of September, when General
MICHEL came up with him, put his forces to instant
rout, and took 30 of his gees. The last intelligence
left it doubtful in what direction this wily adven-
turer was about to seek the means of mischief or
escape, but the probability seemed to be that—in
sportiag phrase—he would run to earth in the
mighboarhood either of Ihansi or Sanger, the dis-
tricts from which he first drew the materials for his
turbulent and predatory career. It seem not un-
likely that his race of mischief is all bat run out, and
that we shall speedily receive intelligence of the
final suppression of the Owalior fugitives and their
leader.

The day before his defeat by General Mlaritt.,
TANTIA Toren had been joined by the disordered
beads of Kari Btison, who had just escaped from a
destructive melanght made on them by Colossi
Roacareon, to whom bad been entrusted the task
of following cep these fugitives—the late garrison of
the insurgent fortress of Powree. The relics of this
force were them mixed up with the broken bands
under TANTIA Torts, and the routed host seemed
mowed with speedy extermination by the combined
movements of General NA Plait and General !Cam.,
to the immediate junction of whose columns no
obstacle was opposed. In Rohilcund the brilliant
affair of Captain BROWNE, who without guns attacked
and almost annihilated a very superior force
of the insurgents well provided with artillery; and
some exploits, scarcely Is. dashing, of Lieutenant
Posen and other. in Central India, complete the
narrative of our successes in the field.
la Oude and Behar there were no military opera-
tions to report. Lord CLTDS was maturing his
preparations for the final campaign, which has ere
this commenced. In °ode we are still told of nu-
merous forme and an imposing array of artillery
ready to take the field against the British Army of
re-conquest. The general, and no doubt the yell-
grounded, belief is India was that this force was
formidable only in semblance; that in reality no
effective resistance would or could be offered to the
masterly combinations of the British Commander-ia-
Chief ; and that organised insurrection in Gude would
terminate at no long period after the serious business
of the campaign commenced.
