TUESDAY, OtOTOBEZIS, 1857.

THE DAY'S NEWS.

Additional telegraphic despatches have . been
received-from India. That received by the GOvern-
meet brings C deutta dates down to the. 10th Sept.,
but no neAlt of a later date than that received by
Bombay. Considerable arrivals of troops were
taking place. It would. appear, however, that
Lucknow was thou ht to be secured. Advices from
that city to the 2nd September state that a second
sortie had taken place, and that the British had
captured two guns ; and, what was of much more
consequence to the beseiged force, .a large :quantity
of provisions. This latter would prove of great
value to the already half-starved population of the
beseiged city—for half-starved they must have been
by the -second day of September. , The list of.
mutinies contained in the former despatches, and:
corroborated by those which we publish to-day,
des 3s analysis. The 10th Light *Cavalry are said
to have mutinied aL Ferozopore. 'klflie.rt the 45t1.,
and 57:h resisted the order to march to their lines-
on the 113. h May, the 10th Cavalry attacked them,.
in codunction-with H. M Gist, and cut up great,
numbers, but it was disarmed long since,, having
been at last infected with the spirit of revolt. The
35th N.I. liroke out, we are told, at (Ghazepore, but
they mutinied- at Nowshera in July, and seiz'ci
the fort of .Murdaun, in the Puojaub, a thousand
miles distant, ,The.slst were disarmed at.Pashawur
in May, and we are told that they have mutinied
again in the last days of August, Theißombay
mail left on the 17th Sept., and the telegram %an-
nounces the mu-tiny of the 2nd Bombay Cavalry on
the 12 h August. Surely, Government might
enable Vice-Consul West, and Acting ConstV-
General Green to keen an army list, and a copy of
the Overland newspaper • published in
each Presidency, ,As a Lottlion eotem-
porary remarks :--1--The miserable jumble of
old news and foolish conclusions, which well. nigh
make up the• entire despatches, is calculated to.
make us-the-laughing stock of continental nations."
The Globe of-last -night says that " the news is
eminently satisfactorv--qaite as much so as we
could reasorw,dbly expect" So says the ministerial
ergau It is stated that the civilians of the
Suprem,l
.Counl3il, indigne.nt at Sir Colin'a pre-'
sumption, in imagining that he knew more of
military matters than they, had reported to the.
India House 'hat he bad arrived full of " fire, zeal,,
and ignorance:l". Such dissensions are reinou3,:
and must be put an end to. The Times thinks
that the news is •"_sufliciently satisfactory.' We.
only hope that the public at,large will also think
so:, but we are very dubious.of it.

There is furth-er particulars of that most.
extraordinary affair in. London. .It now seems that.
the' contents of the carpet bag could not have,
been the work of medical. students. Some of the
London jeuraals hope not, for the credit of rho.;
body of men—evidently thinking -that it would be
preferable that a murder-had.been committed and
the body mutilated in such aananner as we have
already described, than that the least stigma should
be laid at the doors of those modest and
retiring youths. whO are at present walking.' the
London hospit&s. It appears that .every medical
man who has examined ,the remaius.is confident
that the mutilation has ;,been .perpetrated by no
professional hand. The murder is -connected, as
our readers will discover from our report; with a
man and a woman, who appear to have come from
some place in the immediate neighbobrhood of
Asley's'Ampitheatre, or Westminster bridge. It
is to this spot that the attention of the police will
be closely directed, but it is right to add that they
have been making inquiries Ia a locality much'
nearer to the Middlesex side :of Waterlooebridee.
The opinion gains ground that the :viatica of the
tragedy had come from the 'provinces, and that
the hag in which his remains werodiscove,red was
his own property. -Meanwhile, -the alleged. dis-
covery of a human head in Marylabone may shed
additional light upon this horrible affiir. The
inquest was opened yesterday, at which. tha me-
dical officer of the ,police force and the toll. keeper
at the Waterloo bridge was examined.
We have to rzeordahe decease of another of the
celebrities of Englathi. Earl Fitzharainge expired(
at Berkeley Castle, elatteeetershire. on _Saturday,
after a protractod illnein It will be recollected
that the Earl was thrown from his horse -while out
hunting in February het, when his lordehip ,sus-'
tained same trifling contualons. Ile was, however,:
so shaken that he never entirely recove,red from.
the efficte of the fall, having been out but once
for a carriage airing since the. accident. Tha
decertsed was the eldest eon of ;Frederick Augustus,'
.s'h Earl of „Berkeley, by Mgr', daughter of Mr
William Cole., of Gloucester, aael.was born Dacen
ber 26, 1788„and was consequently in his 7Let'
year.- 0u the aleath of his rather, in 1811, he
claimed the ern-ideal of Berkeley. but the claim,
was refused by the House of Lords. ;the validity of
the alleged marriage of the Earl and.Counteue, of
March 30, 1783, being decided as not ,roved, after
an interesting end protracted iequiry,, that of the
May; 1796; being the one valid. In - 1831,
Colonel Berkeley was 'created a peer !under the
-style and title of B-iron SeagraVe (of which ancient
barony itis father, the flail Earl of 133/Leley, was
co-heir), .of Bar ieley C-iaJe, County G-lotteester,
and in August, 1841, was fa,rther advanced b'being
created Earl Fitzhardinge, By his death illose
honours beeeme extinct, the Earl being un-
married.

The Rev. Dr. Livingstone addressed an aggre-
gate meeting of the LeedF, Bradford, and Halifax
Chambers of Commerce, at Leeds, .on Saturday.
There was a very largo attendance., including
Lord Vitount Goderich, M.P. The address of the
Rev. Dr Was many respects a reiteration of his
former statements. The Dr. said that the high
lands in the interior of Africa had ehcep upon
them, but he did not know that their hides had any
wool upon them. The only wool that he saw ap-
peared to be upon the back of the peals. Whether
this go a'a
.wool would be valuable in manu-
facture remained to be tested. He had, how-
ever, seen some sheep with wool, but the woo:
did not appear to be very fine But our
readers will learn all particulars from the rev.
doctor himself. He is to be in Liverpool tc-day,
and will attend a meeting of the members of•the
