were promptly pursued by a cavalry brigade under
Colonel Greathed. Nothing has been sines heard
of them. Although a partial menmunication has
ban reopened with Agra, it is supposed that they
have made their way to Owalior, where they will
be received with open arms by the mutineers of
that city. On this head, however, the Bombay mail
will nammanly give you much later intelligence
than say I sea med.
In my het I Whims' you that General
Havelock had commenced crossing the Ganges
at Cawnpore an the 17th September, and that
he completed that operation on the 19th. H.
had been previously joined by Sir James Outrun,
his senior, but that *Meer, influenced by a feeling
of delicacy, deelined to 11•110.116 the command, or in
any way to interfere with General Havelock's sr-
rangelands. He expressed, however, his intention
of accompanying the force as a volunteer, and in
that capacity attached himself to the Volunteer
Cavalry. The heavy guns and baggage attached
to the force were crossed over on the 20th, sad ea
the 21st the general prepared to attack the enemy,
entrenched a little beyond the old part of Goma
He had with him about 2,600 men of all arum, a
forte which he divided into three brigades, two of
infantry under Brigadier Neill, and Campbell, and
one of artillery under Vinust Byre. The Volunteer
Cavalry, about 160 in ember, nominally under the
command of Major Barrow, were actually led by Sir
lames Ostrom. The attack was made on the
enemy's trent, whilst his right was turned : he very

Since writing yesterday, intelligence has arrived
that Colonel °roadbed's column same up with •
portion of the rebels at Boolandshuhur, about 23
miles from Delhi, on the right bank of the Jamna, on
the 28th ult. An action reseed, in which the rebels
were defeated, losing 150 men in killed alone. On
ear side the loss did not exceed 50 in killed and
wearied. It is farther stated that the great body
of the rebels had reached Muttra,aad were PmParTII
to throw a bridge of boats acmes the henna, with
the view, it was imagined, of making the best of
their way into (hide. There was very little doubt
bet that Colonel Oreathed would have dealt with
them satisfactorily before their purpose could be
effected. I sin sorry to tell you we receive
no satisfactory accounts from Locknow. The go-
