struck down dead by the heat, and many injured more or
less. Assistant-Surgeon Moore, of the Carabineers, was
mortally wounded. Lieutenant De Bourbel, of the same
regiment, lost three fingers cf his right hand ; and Napier,
of thfl Rifles, his leg Lieutenant Perkins, of the Horse
Artillery, was killed.

" SITU [MAX, JUNE 13.

" According to a letter from the neighbourhood of
Neemuch. Fablished in the Dombay. Times, all the officers
of th 3 mutined 72nd, with their wives and children, are
safe ; while the four officers of the wing of the Ist Cavalry
and two of the Artillery have fallen. Another account
states that Colonel Lawrence, the political ag :nt, effected
his escape, as also the superintendent of Neemuch, whose.
name I do not know. The troopers of the cavalry appear
to have been foremost in the mutiny. Every house in the
station has been destroyed.
" By the Calcutta papers of the 3rd we learn that the
mutiny at Lucknow was not so bloodless as I had believed.
The revolted soldiery were attacked by Sir Henry Lawrence
(with, I suppose, the 32nd Queen's and artillery), and
driven out of the cantonment with some loss. Brigadier
Handscomb is reported killed. Besides these regular
troops, ._;00 of the Oa 1e Irregular Cavalry are said to have
mutinied. To which of the three regiments they belonged
does not appear. They are said to have killed Captain
Hayes, their commandine, officer, but that officer was
military secretary to the Chief Commissioner. However,
be they who they may, it seems clear that they have mu-
tinied and made for Delhi, avoiding the volunteer horse
from Agra, who were out after them.
" MONDAY, JUNE 13, NOON.

" The mail has been kept open till this hour, and is
sow about to close. No further news from Delhi. Gene-
ral Reed was expected from Peshawar about the 9th, to
take the command from Sir H. Barnard. Sir Patrick
Grant has left Madras to succeed General Anson in the
command of the Bengal army only.
" The Bombay Times has published a telegraphic mes-
sage from Madras, to the effect that the Peninsular and
Oriental Company's steamer Erin, which left this port with
he China mail on the Ist inst., ran ashore on the coast of
Ceylon, between Galle and Colombo, soon after mid-
night f the 6th, and became a total wreck. The passen-
gers were saved and the mails and specie. The cargo,
consitzing mainly of opium, and worth £180,600, was
destroyed.
" The disturbed state of the North-west Provinces has
seriously affected the Bombay money market. A. feeling
of uneasiness, almost amounting to panic, has seized the
native capitalists, both here and at other places, such as
the rich city of Ahmedabad. Very large sums have been
withdrawn from the banks, and hoarding must be going
on to a great extent. Government securities may he said
to have been almost unsaleable. The Four per Cents.
were down as low as 811 ; the Five per Cents. could not
be sold at 98i ; to-day's quotations are 831 and 99
respectively, which, all things considered, are very high.
The Bank of Bombay has twice within the last fortnight
raised its rate of discount, each time 1 per cent., and it
now stands at 9 per cent. Exchange on London, 2s. tqd.

NEEMUCH.

"7th Gwalior Infantry.—Captain M Donald, Lieutenant

"At Hissar and Ilansi, two stations to the north west
(north-west of Delhi), the troops, consisting of the
Horreeanah Battallion and the 4th rregular Cavalry, are
said to have mutinied. A general massacre is asserted to
have taken place, but we may hope the report will turn out
to be geoundless like the similar one at Neemuch.
" Report from .Agra (on native authority only), that
there was a panic among the mutineers at Delhi, that 500
horse had fled from the city, and that the King was anxious
to throw himself on our protection."

We make the f )11)wing extr4ets from the papers:
THE DISTURBED PROVINCE 3

(From the Supplement to the Bombay Times of June 11.)
We are sorry to hear that some of the mutineers are
believed to have reached Nagppre, and that others w. re
penetrating still further soutb. 'l he object of these villains
appoars to bo to roach tho Nizam's, dominions), ',Ohara, doubt
less, they expect to succeed in their mission of strife and
bloodshed. The authorities were on the alert, however,
and would no doubt bring to a speidy termination the
career of any of the apostles of evil who should chance to
fill into their hands. _

We observe from the Calcutta Government Gazette that
the stations of Seen)le and Sultanpore, Benares, Gha-
zeepore, Chunar, Mirzapore, Juanpore, Goruckpore, and
Azumghur, are, as a temporary arrangement, placed
tinder the command of the Brigadier commanding at
Benares.

Orders for the march of the 3rd Cavalry Hyderabad
Contingent reached Auruogabad on the 9th of Jane, and
the regiment was to start immediately in the direction of
Malligaum. This fine body of men is to form a portion of
the moveable column now forming under the command of
Major-General Woodburn.
We have good authority for believing that, in so far as
the British provinces of Guzerat are concerned, no fear
whatever is entertained of their disaffection, and that the
rumour of a rising among the Grasias, noticed by the
Poonah Observer a few days ago (since contradicted by
it, however), is destitute of foundation. Whether the
Bheels and other hill tribes will remain quiet has to be
seen. They are not a race likely, however, to have any
very strong spmpathies with this movement, and the fall
of Delhi, now hourly expected, will, in all probability,
quiet the whole country.

We have received the following letter from the vicinity
of Neemuch, dated the Gth of June :
" Moorum, 18 miles east of Neamuch.
" All the officers of the 72, with their wives and children,
are safe and well ; likewise Dr. and Mrs. Hochin, Captain
and Mrs. Lawrie, and Lieutenant Williams, .1 the 21st
Regiment. Captain Lloyd and Lieutenant Ritchie have
also escaped. We hear that all the officers of the 7th
Regiment Gwalior Contingent have also escaped, but the
fate of the four officers.of the let Bengal Cavalry, and two
officers of the Bengal Artillery, is too melancholy to think
of. We have two sergeants with us, Taylor and Horne.
We are en route to Neemueb, with some Kotah troops,
under the command of Major Barton, and expect to be at
Neemuch on the 81.

" We hear that there is only one bungalow standing at
Neemuch."

Two squadrons of the 14th Light Dragoons and the 25th
Regiment Native Infantry commenced their march on
Monday evening for Mhow. They will be followed im-
mediately by the Nth Regiment Native Infantry from
Malligaum, a European Battery of Artillery from Nuggur,
a C )mpany of Madras Sappers and Miners with pontoon 4,
and a regiment of Nizam's Cavalry from Aurungabad. We
are told that 200 men of the 3rd Europeans are also to
form part of the force, and a troop of Horse Artillery ex-
pected down from Kurrachee Tne gallant 25th are said
to b 3 in the highest spirits, and the state of efficiency and
discipline of this carps has more than once recently been
the subject of remuk. The men have but just returned
from Persia, and are marching again. Government un-
questionably ought to reimburse these Sepoys for their
losses by the sale of their kit consequent upon such anusual
movements.
