somewhat peculiar circumstance. A claim had been made
on one of the overseers, who took the same down in writing,
and had stated that that wee all that was required ,• but upon
the list of rotas babe esidbited on the church doom It
was found that the names were omitted. The applicants,

lox toututs, Auu CST 12.—The following little narrative
of event. may be interesting to sotue few friends of the 73rd
N. 1., who have bete writing to us of late, to salt whether
we leave been kilted or not by mutineers . "Yesterday
,
at noon, we received intelligence that three desperadoes had
resolved to destroy the Europeans here, or die in the
attempt. The vines failed in the former, but partially
realised the latter alternative. Tweet them were anted, and
are now in the quarter-pull; the third shut himself up in en
empty house in the linm, and with sword, shield, and pistol,
revolved to shoot & Sahib, and make a hero of himself. The
%muter pawl earl a few native otheen sad the Wilder-

major marched down end surrounded his house. The whole
regiment turned out, and tried to keep away the officers
from delft( their lives. After a short parley, violent abuse,
and many threats, tho Brahmin scoundrel opened his door,
and walked out with drawn sword, shield on arm, and loaded
pistol. He celled on the men in general to destroy their offi-
cers and fight for their religion. The answer he got wu,
" Lay down your arms, or we'll shoot you." Several
officers here appeared on the scene, and some revolvers
were pointed at the mutinous rascal. The sopoye'
however, begged the officers to stand back, and three men
of the quarter guard stepped out, and shot the rebel dead
on the spot. The villain was a Brahmin, but not a man
in the regiment would touch his corpse, end the sweepers
can:wand threw it into the river Teems. The man who fired
the first shot lodged his bullet in the brain of the mutineer.
He wee also a Brahmin sepoy, and was made a Ns& on the
spot. The men were in high excitement, and many with
loaded muskets in their hands. The officers were in the midst
of them, and nothing could exceed the orderly behaviour and
apparent loyally of the whole regiment. While
they were
tturned out tLe sunset bugles sounded, and each com-
pany mumbled for roll call. The several companies were
marched together, and formed in close column, when the
colonel made theme epee hin English, which was well and
clearly translated by the interpreter, as it fell from the co-
lonel's lips. The men are in capital order yet, and the Jul-
pigoree officers expect to be able to weather the storm which
has wrecked so many native regiment., and which has
period through Julpigoree not without many and long conti-
nued dangers.—Engliakesen, Aug. 21.

SPAIN.

The l'aris Penes has the following somewhat im-
portant article on Spanish affairs:
It wall be remembered that the Spanish ministerial crisis
In Spain was provisionally put an end to on September It,
by the offer made to General Letsundi, and refused by him, of
the post of Captain (aural of Cute. But it appears that
the ministry ha. not given up the project of ousting Omni
Concha. Our letters of Sept. 24 say that the cabinet had
proposed Gaamd la Ilea a. his successor. The Queen did
not accept the proposal. The names of Generale Paris, Cor-
dova., and Hisserd ham bees eucreasively pronounced, end
all rejected. In the council of Friday, September 2f, nothing
wee done. Our correspondents, however, ensure us that
other names were pat forward by the ministers, and among
them thole of Count de Manuel, Count de Vista Hermosa,
and Count Laurent Sens, but these met with no more favour
*OM the Queen than the others. It is impossible set to see
in this persistence of the cabinet • settled purpose to bring
about a decisive solution, namely, either a rupture or • eon-
oeasu,n on the part of the croon. There are personal situa-
tions 'a the cabinet of an extremely relicate nature, and it
is even said that in the awe of Nsrvaea's retirement, the
Y•rquia des Mal, Minister of Foreign Affairs, would under-
take to form a new ministry, but merely for the
purpose of accomplishing a transition. Admiral F.
Armero has been spates of as a successor to
Name; but there la every reason to think that if the real
Leder of the conservative party there'd be compelled to kayo
Fewer, he would be replaced by • more important personage.
In noting these rumors, we feel it seems. y to protest that
we are animated by no hostility to the present cabinet. We
have repeatedly said that the task of the French rem is not
to interfere in the Internal affairs of • :riendly and neigh-
bouring nation like Spain. In recording the facts which are
p•seing we can only hope that Spain may not arffer in her
tranquillity or her interests.

Several English gentlemen and clergymen con-
nected with the Foreign Aid Society have arrived in Turin

laincy here of the Chareh of England.

HEE MAJESTY'S THEATRE.

Ml7llla

Mr. Lumley has commenced a series of " extra
nights," at prices reduced to the ordinary rates of the Eng-
lish theatres. The speculation promises to be a successful
one, if we may judge from the appearance of the house Let
night, every part of it being crowded by a seemingly much
gratified audience. Of the hackneyed Troeatere, which woe
the entertainment, there is nothing to be said now-a-days, nor
is there much to be said of last night's performance. Oinglinl,
In the part of klanrieo, was as Suer ever. We never
herd him sing more beautifully, or act with greater energy
and feeling. His great Cr, Ali, el, ton mlo," the gam of
the opera, was exquisite in voice,:delicacy of execidloc, end
truth of expression. Speeds, too, gave great eld to the
character of Leonora. This lady, notwithstanding IKON
physical defects, is an accomplished artist. The more Is
too high for her voice, which was consequently Mislead
beyond its proper compamend became occasionally shrN sad
wiry ; but this wen more than compensated by her ereelleat
style, and her dramatic force and passion. The Fart of the
Oottet de Luna was sustained by a performer new to the
Lowder public—Signor Aklighieri —who has a very
good baritone voice, end sang the favourite air,
"AI baleno del sun sorriso " to the satisfaction
of the audience. The striking character of Animas, the
gip" (the real heroine of the piece) was very feebly sup-
ecets4 by another new performer, a Signora Sondlna, who
is by no means at, either sea singer wen actress, to appear
la tl put in which We have been accustomed to Vierdot and
Alboni. The chorus and orchestra are much reduced in
strength, which was, perhaps, to be expected ; but they are of
reasonably good quality, and the conductor, Signor Arditi,
appears to understand his buslnme.
The Trariata to announced for to-morrow, and Lame di
Lammermoor ter Saturday. In both these pieces Piccolo.

-HAMMERSMITH.

Francis Adair, aged 17, the son of Major Adair, of Royal-
crescent, Notting-hill, was placed in the dock, before Mr.
Ingham, charW. with wilfully breaking a coal-cellar iron-
flap, belonging to Mr. Henry Boyle:, a gentleman melding at
No. 14, Royal-crescent.
From the evidenoe of the complainant end hie witnesses it
appeared that between 10 and 11 o'clock on Monday night
Mr. Boyle? heard a notes in front of his house, and upon
looking through his bedroom window he saw several young
gentlemen standing near to the opening in the pavement
leading to the coal-cellar, and the iron covering Cu off. He
could not distinguish who they were, but upon going outside
he recognised some of them as being the eons of neighbours.
The iron covering was broken end lying in the road. Ha
accused one of the young gentlemen of the damage, when the
prisoner stepped up and admitted that he had done it. The
prisoner was then given into custody, and the complainant,
at the elation, offered to relinquish the charge if he w
apologM, but he refused, and denied that he had taken the
plate from off the opening.
Mr. Martin, for the defence, declared that there had been
a misundi refueling in the worde uttered by the pt better. He
admitted that he had picked it up, and had thrown it into the
road. He denied having said he bad done it.
Mr. Ingham mid the case came within the meaning of the
Police Act, for it was an offence to leave open any vault or
cellar, es well am not having it properly secured. Ile (Mr.
Ingham) had no reasonable doubt that the priaoriez had
pulled up the iron covering finding it was not properly se-
cured, and bad thrown it into the road. He gave the pri.
meter the credit for admitting the fact in the tint instance,
and if he bad followed up that gentlemanly conduct by
apologieing and promising to repair the damage, nothing
more would have taken plant. He fined him twenty shinier,
and ho wished all the householders in that neighbourhood
to understand that Mr. Biller was also liable for his ser-
vants not having securely fastened the plate.
The money was paid.

BATA I, BOILER EXPLOIIIOI4

Yesterday (Tuesday) morning the boiler connected
with liarehills*.lane Colliery, York-rued, Leeds, the property
of Moors. ()amide Brothers, exploded at a quarter past seven, ,
and reeulted in the death of Mr. Joseph Garside, and in the
serious injury of the engineman (George Heigh), and • boy
names Charles Ceeno. The boiler war an old cylindrical one,
about 26 feet long by 2 feet 10 inches, the metal apparently
of very inferior quality. It wee tired from beneath, and
was supplied with wars through a suction pipe from a mud
well on the left hand side, when the engine was in motion.
1, was only fitted with the ordinary safety valve and float.
On Monday a leak was discovered in the boiler, and the
works were stopped to allow of the accessary repairs being
made, work bong resumed yesterday morning at the
usual hour. Nothing occurred to excite the attention
of the engine-man until about a quarter peat seven,
when the boiler exploded with a loud report, the greater part
of the upper portion being throws into an atijoinins: field,
whilst the bed was shattered to atoms, some of the bricks
being projected • distance of 100 yards. Assistance hoeing
been oUatned, the body of Mr. Joseph °melde was found on
the right of the boiler, in a frightfully shattered condition,
and it la supposed that lie had just arrived on the spot to in-
quire as to how the boiler was working, when he wee attack
by the part blown off and the debris, and killed instantly.
the engineman wee found near the mouth of the lire-box,
very much bruised and scalded, and the boy Crannws• found
in the mud well, also severely scalded, and only just alive.
The body of Mr. Gareide was in the first Instance removed is
the White Horse, and thence to hie own residence at Btu-
minions, Haigh and Crane being conveyed to the infirmary,
where they now be in a very precarious state. The boiler
was about 12-horse power, and the cause of the expineion is
nun to to have been a scarcity of wister.--ftecond Edition

THE BALE OF ARMS AT CALCUTTA.

(Prom the Hunkers of July 20.)

A contemporary, in drawing attention to the re-
port that • trednonan in Cekutta had lately add no less than
one thousand rifles to a single native, saya that surely the
matter is worth inquiring into. We cannot but coincide lathe
sentiment. The idea of an English tradesman—for we have
no doubt he is each- carrying on a traffic in weapons that he
must know are likely to be turned, not against himself and
the residents of Calcutta, but upon hie unfortunate and her
Wed countrymen la the North West, can only be equalled
by the tales which are related of our early etnfes with the
American King Philip and his successors, where there were
not wanting men who (being sate themselves) could make •
profitable trade in the blood of their sufficing fellow-country-
man, by the We of arms to the enemy.

A PALACE RAILWAY TRAIN.

The train which the company of the Eastern
Railway has presented to the Emperor, to go to and from the
camp of Chalons, is sine remarkable for convenience, .h-
-gents, and art. It ha in fact, quite a chef d' rtvre. The
following ie a teief description of it It C 0131.1661 of eight
carriages, united to each other by means of bridge,. The
first two are arrangrd for the of It of the suite of the Em-
peror, and form several solos and cabinets. The next is a
carriage destined for the kitchen and dining-room ; the latter
and its furniture are of srulptured oak ornamented with gold
the seats being of embossed leather. The next is arranged
as • terrace fur the purpose of viewing the country; a rich
balustrade in wrought Iron rune round it, and the roof to sup-
ported by iron pillars. An immense corbeitle offtoeTll occupte•
the middle. and is surrounded by a sofa Alto covered with em-
beamed leather. Rich Beauvais tapestries are arranged with
taste along the pitlare. The next, which is the imperial
=loon, is fitted up with great luxury. The ceilings are of a
white ground, with arabesques of flowers admirably painted ;
the panels are of a light green; the drapery and furniture
ore of light-eoloured tapestry work. By the aide of this
saloon is the boudoir of the Emmet., tastefully decorated In
light green. The next carriage fa fitted-up as two bed-
room; in the first, to the right and left, are two tede ar-
ranged in aleovee, with hangings in violet silk, and two
drawing-room., with all the necessary dependencies; the
other carriage is another bed-room, also with two beds, with
hangings in blue dement, and two d g-rooms, Then
are two carriages, like thee, for the officers on duty, set
apart for the ladies of the Empress. Externally
and internally the train ie decorated with the highest art, and
sat the floors aro in marquetry." On thXday of the inaugura-
tion of the line to the camp the Emperor shifted this Intorno-
tive palace with a good deal of interest, and on several occa-
sions expressed his satisfaction to the directors of the
company. Hi. Mejesty at first entered the train alone, bet
he soon called on the gentlemen of the suite to join him. In
pausing through the bedrooms, the Emperor said to Marshal
Ca*robert with a smile "These cannot interest you much,
since you never eleep.'l After having inspected the whole,
the Emperor took pones:don of the saloon, and there received
the mayor and municipal council of Chdlone, who were pre-
touted to him by the prefect of the department of the Marne,
and reed to him an addreee, to which his Mejesty replied in •
haw words,

SIR HENRY LAWRENCE.

(From the !Wooed littia.)
Vivid, after the lapse of many years, will be the
retellation of the throng of ems which have, during
the last kw months, succeeded each other ea rapidly. Long
will the soma= at Meerut and the defence of Luck-
now Sangallant fa the hearts of the Inglish le when their
power shall ones again have become eas.olldated and a fresh
policy shall have led to far different remits. Heady will the
nannortallet of the second centenary of Plumy, when be nee
himself surrounded by the tokens of western elvtlintion,
regret and yet admire the untimely death of Sir Henry Law-
mace. Gladly will he pay a tribute to the mmory of the
brave man of whose administration and by whose Isßname
so mach he. been done for India. For many a year will his
name be associated with Lucknow, and long wffi it be before
the natives of India wipe from their race the stain of the
blood of the Pacificator of the Punjaub, the large-hearted,
niuestyrnergied Lawnince.
Rattly hen it fallen to the lot of any man to lead so event-
fal • life, and still rarer has a life been spent so entirely un-
selfishl in the service of the state. In 1842 political egret
in ftffie and In 1861 resident in Oude, his career
bee been glorious throoghout. It is seldom that the same
yam penmen abilities fitted both for the forum and the
watt:. ; the calm gravity of the one is thought to be opW
to the daahing boldness of the other; but Sir H
then opponte qualifications, andemjsone
'br7,l7l7:l:lButlqj campaign, In the tattle of &brace, In
the Gni= at Chitlins and in the military defence of
Lischnow, as in Affghealstan or the Punjanb. The news of
his death ham been • blow to the heart of all who
have been long reddest la India, and the news
of his rail bee ever been told with beta heath
and moistened eye.
Full of noble and affectionate feeling, heroic and (milted-
medic es a soldier, ardent in his benevolence, unbinsed in his
liberality, a zealous cordial friend, • man of cold learning,
ancr experience, with the wisdom of a powerful, but
dm mind, hie history is more worthy of record than that of
Sir T. Munro or Sir John Malcolm. The eye which has rested
upon the lustre of the fame of the Statesman or the warrior,
Which has watched its growing progress and scanned it at its
meridian height amid the honours and applause of contempo-
rary devotion. 'seldom !becomes denied with it. posthumous
brightness. But the toes of Sir Henry Lawrence hes left no
to discover at last what inferior men have posts of higher In-
fluence, and how our country eases from its neglect, under
its despicable seniority system, of Its noblest, its loftiest, end
its most illuatrion son; thus his after fame will even be
greater than his living renown. It was his light that shed •
lustre upon the adminintstion, and now that it has been
quenched, the darkness will be perceptible.
