Louis Napoleon style ; he has given a warning
to the Friend of India, that his license will be taken
away if he again transgresses the narrow limits
assigned him. We wish his lordship had the courage
to take another leaf out of the French Emperor's
book by marching out the traitors, of whom he has
a list, and shooting them on the maidaun. One
such example would be worth a hundred lectures to
the press.

MADRAS.
(From the Madras 4 reeneem of July 11.)

On Saturday evening, the 27th ult.—the day be.
fore the steamer left—Madrea was thrown into a
panic by the arrival, in great haste, from the
Mount of a company of Horse Artillery and six
guns. Many gentlemen and ladies drove into
the fort, several made for the Mount, and hundreds
of the inhabitants rushed to the arsenal. It was
said that the Commissioner of Police had received
intimation of an intended rising among the Ma-
homedans of Trip Scene, but as nothing of an official
nature has been said about the matter people are
still in the dark. The Horse Artillery has been
picketed before Government House since the 27th
alt., arms have been sent to the Club, troops
are stationed at other parts, and places of

rendezvous have been appointed ; but u very
little, if any publicity, has been given to the

last-mentioned fact—from a mistaken idea that
by so doing alarm would be excited—the advan-
tages of such a measure will, in case there should
be any necessity for using them, be confined to
a few. But notwithstanding all these prepara-
tions there is every reason to believe that we
are perfectly safe in Madras, and they are or
should only be made on the same principle that
prompts a careful man not to be unprepared for
any poesible contingency, however remote it may
be. On the 9th instant the Volunteer Cavalry
and militia assembled on the island for the first
time at a little after gun fire. The scene that was
presented was a very lively one ; horsemen gallop-
ing here and there, and bodies of militia-men
marching about in various directions. Large num-
bers of the fair sex assembled to witness the opera-
tions which were, however, not of a very interest-
ing nature, consisting as they merely did of the
distribution of arms and the arrangement of the
volunteers into their respective divisions. The
natives of all creeds and castes held a public meeting
the other day, at which they expressed their detes-
tation of the fearful crimes that had been com-
mitted in the north-west, assured government of
their loyalty, and adopted an address to that effect.
The address is now being signed by the native com-
munity, and therefore has not been presented to the
governor.
