THE MUTINIES IN INDIA.

We have received our advice. from India and
China, in anticipation of the Overland Mail, a tele-
graphic summary of which appeared in yesterday's
Daily News. The dates are :—Bombay, July 14 ;
Calcutta, July 6; Hong Kong, June 24.
The following is the summary of the Bombay
Times of July 14 :
In the last fortnight we have probably passed
the flood" of the insurrection, and may now hope
that our future advice. will be chiefly occupied with
a recital of the subsidence of this great rebellion,
and the restoration of order in the disturbed pro-
vipers. The truth is there are no more regiments to
mutiny, unless they are to be those of Bombay and
Madras, concerning the fidelity of which there is
not the slightest ground of suspicion. Delhi had
not fallen rap to the 27th June, the date of our latest
advice., vii Lahore. There has been a good deal of
fighting outside thewalls, the rebels being defeated
en every occasion with great slaughter, and it is
Milder of much congratulation that the apparent
hopelessness of their cease has effectually checked
the disposition of the mutineers at other stations to
proceed to their assistance. The only attempt which
has been made to reinforce them, seems to have been
on the part of the Nusseerabad mutineers, who were
cut up dreadfully on the occasion by General Bar-
nard's force. Whether any of them got inside the
walls or not we cannot say.
Daring the fortnight jut elapsed we have re-
ceived intelligence of the mutiny of the troops at
Moradabad, Fyubad, Seetapore, Sanger, Noncom
Banda, Futteghur, Mhow, and Indore ; and we pro-
ceed briefly to relate the particulars of each in so far
as they are known to as.

It is now evident that an arrangement existed
between the troops at Bareilly, Shahjehanpore,
Lucknow, and Moe-MAW to effect a simultaneous
rising. A glance at the map will show the proxi-
mity of these stations to each other, and the out-
break occurred at each on the morning of the
same day.

The mutiny at Hardily, which we reported in a
few words in our last iaeue,seems to have been attended
with circumstances of peculiar atrocity and treachery.
Only the day before their outbreak, the sepoys ap-
pealed to their officers to recal their wives and
families from the Hills, where they had been sent for
safety, and even to the last moment these miscreants
swore to protect their officer, to the death. The
regiments row en masse on Sunday morning, the Ist
of June, a 'hotted gun being fired as the signal
about 11 o'clock. The men at once rushed upon the
officers lines, and opened a fusiladc upon the
bungalows. Such officers as were able imme-
diately got on their horses, and made for the
rendezvous previously agreed upon amongst
them, the Cavalry parade ground. An ineffectual
effort was made to bring back the troops to their
allegiance, but the scoundrels opened upon them
with grape shot, and they had to ride for their liven.
The country having risen in all direction', it woe
with extreme difficulty, and only by a ride of 70
miles, that the little band at last found safety at
Nynee Tal in the hills, where they had previously
sent their families. Here the refugees are con-
gregated in numbers which will probably awe any
attempt to attack them, and as the place is of
very difficult approach, we may hope they are
in safety. At Morodabad the desire of plunder
seems to have prevailed over the murderous pro-
pinkies of these miscreants, and they gave their
of two hours' grace to make their escape, in
which they fortunately succeeded ; the whole of the
°Goers (29th Regiment) and the residents, with
their families, escaping to Nynee Tal the day after
the arrival of the liareilly refugees. We stated in
our last advice* that great fear was entertained that
the whole of the station of Shahjehanpore had been
maasaertd. We are happy, however, to learn that
a good many have escaped, but we ere unable as
yet to give the particulars. Our columns will be
found to contain elsewhere a list of the refugees that
were at Nynee Tal on the 12th ultimo, and there are
probably many concealed in the plain, waiting en
opportunity to join them.

The rising at Fyzabad occurred on the night of
Sunday, the Bth alt., the 6th Regiment Oude Irre-
gular Infantry giving the signal, which was imme-
diately answered by the 22nd Regiment Native
Infantry. They at once took porre•sion of the bat-
tery, and would not allow the officers to approach,
bat do not seem to have offered them any further
violence. Fyzabad is in the very heart of Oude,
and it situate upon • branch of the Ganges. The
officers determined to endeavour to escape by boat,
and were allowed quietly to embark. What fol-
lowed is thus related by one of the party :
