A correspondent of the lirarluars writes u fol.l
lows from the entrenched camp at Cawnpore :
6. Barr. 30.
"By mid-day of the 22nd, the 'tail' of an army'
—meld I can assure you the tail of an army of 8,000
E a long one—has dieappeared. Since
that day no is
vestige of news from them has reached
us. They ploughed away through the tide of
rebellion which overflows Gude but the waves
have closed again and we have no means of
bearing from them or communicating with
them. Yesterday 100 men, natives sent to hold
Mama and keep the Lucknow road open, were cut
up by the rebels almost to a run. To-day ear
nos-
sada have returned with 'no newel' We have
heard heavy firing, and it is smeared that they
have reached Lucknow, but nothing is certain.
Yesterday the superintendent of polio at Bithooe
was murdered by the rebels and several of our police
also slaughtered. Will our rulers dare still to talk
of mercy ? More to-morrow.

" While I write, the manes frees the ramps (a
of oar entrenched camp are nada( the banks
of the Ganges reverberate with a salute announcing
that Lucknow is in our hands. It seem that
although many eossids have been despatched from
General Havelock's camp, the enemy have kept
up such a strict blockade in the rear of his
fares that to paw was imposeible. Even now
they are in great force at Oonao and Basratgunj,
and we expect to move oat to night with 300 men
and two guns to escort provisions intended to
meet them on the road. We fear the force mast be
' running short, as they took with them only fifteen
I days' provisions, and ten days have already elapsed.
Under the able superintendence of Captain 'ropey
our fortifications are fast progressing towards com-
pletion, we have a large number of gun. mounted
and ammunition galore, and we are training
some of oar aptest infantry men as gunners, that
being a branch of the service in which we are short
of hands. Our sick are very rapidly decreasing,
and daily our strength numerically is increasing ;
and although we know that the rebels
are gathering in hordes in the rear of
Bithoor and the surrounding villages, still we feel
almost as ;revere from attack as you do in
Calcutta. The day after to-morrow I export, we
shall welcome our brave fellows and long-suffering
countrymen from Lucknow. But it has coat us dear,
very dear, for the odds against us were tremendous.
The moment I can obtain details you shall have
them."
