LONDON, TUESDAY, JULY 14.

Ws are not alarmists ; but we must confess that
the detailed news from India is of a graver com-
plexion than the telegraphic messages had led us to
expect. What those persons can mean who state
that "the crisis is looked upon as past" is beyond
oar comprehension. That the mutiny will be put
down we hope and believe ; but it has still to be put
down, and its suppression will cost both blood and
treasure.
Thirty-two regiments of the Bengal army, with
some companies of Artillery and Sappers and
Miners, have mutinied. The insurgent force in
Delhi is not composed exclusively of the Meerut
mutineers, and the native troops stationed at Delhi,
which made common cause with them. They have
been joined by revolted regiments from Nusseerabad,
Ferozepore, and elsewhere. This force has
not been driven within the walls after one
defeat only they have repeatedly ventured out
to give battle to the assailants. Nor is Delhi the
only point at which mutiny obstinately holds its
ground. Although quelled at first at Lucknow, it
bas since broken out there with greater violence ;
and Cawopore, at the time of the latest despatches,
was held in a state of siege by mutineers. The
disbanded men and deserters, too, form an element
of mischief calculated to awaken scarcely lees
anxiety than the banded insurgents actually in
some. They are disseminating themselves through
the country, apparently with the design to foster
and inflame any local discontents that they may find
existing among the ryots. Some straggling parties
are reported to have made their way to the neigh-
bourhood of Nagpore. If any considerable number
of them can contrive to penetrate into the NIZ AM'S
country, they may there find ample means of mis-
chief ready to their hands. An impression, we
know, prevails among many experienced Indian
officers that though the outbreak has been ostensibly
provoked by the fears of the /Bodo° Sepoys that
Government intended to assail the distinctions of
caste, it will be found that the Ilindoos have been
mere cat's-paws of Mabometan conspirators. How
this may be we cannot pretend to say ; but months
ago we were shown letters front a respectable Ma-
Itometan native of the North-west Province, in
which he expressed serious alarm on the score of
secret machinations among his co-religionists; and
the simultaneous movement of so many regiments
upon and the proclamation of a King of
Delhi. all point to one and the same conclusion.
We will await with patience the publication of the
papers promised by Lord PALM EASTON. We agree
with the noble lord, that whet Government is called
upon to publish is facts, not speculations. We trust,
however, that full narratives of facts will be pub-
lished, and that the story will be taken up at the
earliest indications of a mutinous spirit. There is
reason to believe that the Barrackpore outbreak was
not the first visible symptom of a bad spirit pervading
the Bengal army.

SiR ROBERT CARDEN deserves great credit for
the exertions he is making to expose the nefarious
proceedings of the Betting Offices. As most of our
readers are aware, these mischievous establishments

are placed under the ban of a ecru stringent law.
It was but the other day that one Meane,the ma.

sager of an establishment of this description,
most properly sentenced, by that able and vigorous
magistrate the Recorder of London, to three
months' imprisonment, for the proved offence
of keeping open an office of the kind. It
will immediately suggest itself that some
strong motive must exist for inducing men to I
carry on a traffic thus dangerous—a traffic in which
the chances of detection are so numerous, and the
consequences of detection so serious. A strong
motive does exist—that motive of filthy lucre which
is constantly found to lead men who live below the
surface of public opinion, to look down upon the
penal awards of law. In the case of this man Meaux-,

was retained to lead the prosecution, that is the

as the net profit of less than a year's professional
industry, will, of course, far outweigh the brief
ignominy of three months' hard labour.
The enormous amount of these flagitious gains
indicates, with lamentable cogency, the wide spread
of the social diocese on which these men flourish
They are the middlemen between the dopes and the
blacklegs--the bankers of that licensed hell, " the
Turf," which is at the present moment the source
and the scene of more widespread ruin
this any other temple which the folly of
Ineffildnd has dedicated to the spirit of
ipadation. The miserable feature of this Turf
gambling is that it now spreads through all ranks
and theses of society—nay, that it finds its mod
anima votaries among those whose position is Ur
mat dependent and whose means am the ma*

there is scarcely a village to be found without its
betting club ; and it has long been notorious that

among all the lordly patrons of the Jockey Clab. The
disease is moreover spreading rapidly. Already the
