THORLEY'S FOOD FOR CATTL E. -
It is only a short time since this singularly efficacious article
of animal diet first made its apr•earan:.e ; and alrea ,y its celebrity
is worlthwide. It has been a subject of wonder, and has nuzzled
many a brain to explain how this has been brought about. Yet when
we are acquaintel with a few facts concernin; the food, cur wonder
will cease. A few dayr• since, a gentleman, wrote, stating that he
had a horse which wa. a " perfect hag of bones " lle tried all kinds
of things to get the animal into condition, but in vain. He then
bought some of Thot,ey's food ; and he sayi the effect was wonder-
ful. The horse rapidly grew fat, and inthemrse of a few weeks, had
gained no less than 12 stones. Again we find at the late agricultural
shows a! Birmingham, Cardiff, &c., the animals which carried off the
higheA pr zes. had been partly fed with Thorley's food for cattle.
Such facts speak for themselves. and we are forced to t'ae conclu-
!ion, that its celebrity .arises solely trom its own intrinsic merits,
and the gre't demand for it can proceed alone from the good opinion
and testimony of those who have tried It. All nar,tes interested in
horses and cattle will do well to apply to 77, Newgate-street,
London, for a pamphlet which is snit post-free.

THE OPERATIONS IN INDIA.

(From a Supplement to Tuesday's Gazette.)
The Right IL,o. the G,vernor•Gtoeral is pleaiied to
direct the puhiicatifin of the following despatch from his
Exce lency the Commander-it-Chief, dated 811 May,
ISSB, reporting operations against the rebels in Rohil-
cond.

His lordship desires that his Excellency will accept
his hearty congratulations and thanks upon the clrnplete
ace implishment of all the operations projected for
Rohilcund.
The small cost of life at which success has been se-
cured to the forces under his Excellency's command is
again a source of the highest satisfaction to the Gover-
nor-General, w .ile the cheerful etalursnce by the troops
of the fatigue and exposure to which they have neces-
sarily been subjected of late is quite admirable.
The whole of Brigadier-General Jones's progress from
Roorkee to Bareilly has, in the Governor-Generale opi-
nion, been marked with a happy combination of energy
and prudence,

THE COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF TO THE GOVERNOR GENERAL.
Camp Baredly, May 8, 1858.
My Lord,—l have to report to your lordship that,
according to my intentions already announced, my head-
quarters were transferred to General Walp .le's Division
in Rohilcund on the 27th ult., the siege train, Jere,
having joined him on the previous day.
The tame had now arrived for Gen. Waloole'e division
to advance on Bareilly on the one sidS, while directions
were sent to Brigadier-General Jams, her Majesty's
60th Rifles, with whose movements your lordship has
already been made acquaintet, to move forward from
Moradabad in a like direction.
The late lamented Gen. Penny, C. 8., was instructed
to cross the Ganges with the troop as per margire's at
the same time at Nudewlee, to advance through the
Budaon district, and unite himself to the column an ier
ley immediate orders at Meraapdre Iletra, on the end
of the 6th March. from Feittygbrir.e - s
. Although this effiesr unhappily lost his life in a trilling
skirmish, the orders were literally obeyed, and the junc-
tion was effected as designed, under the orders s f Briga-
dier Jones, her Majesty's 6;b Dragoon Guards ; the
rebels who had so long occupied the ghtvs of the Ganges
above Futtyghur, and the district of Budaon, bav,ng re-
tired before him, and swelled the ma-s of the insurgeras
at Bareilly. During my advance Ernie Fattyghur towards
Bareilly, the detach -d parties of the enemy which had
previously occupied Shabjehanpre and the various large
villages along the tine of road, did not venture in a single
instance to ffer t esistance. Accordingly every town and
village was spared, and I advanced by regular marches,
waving ha!ted one day at Shabjehanpore to form a mili-
tary post at that place.
On the sth inst. a movement was made on Bareilly.
The information which bad been furnished me from vari-
ouson it was utterly impossible. In short, in Spite of the as-
sumed eq,ui quarters was most
ips
ofthecofllluinlcutg
portionoi:, and to
of place reliance
the popula-
tion, I have not found it easier to obtain information in
Rohilcund on which trust could be put, than has been
been the case in dealing with the insurrection in other
parts of the empire.
Very early on the morning of the sth, the advance
having been made from Furreedpore, the force consisting
of as per margin,l was formed in line of battle about 6
o'clock a.m. The first line cont-i® ed of the Highland
Brigade, supported by the 4th Seikhs and Belooch Bat-
talion, with a -heavy battery in the ceutre, with horse
artillery and cavalry on both flanks, under the respective
brigadiers and commandants.
The second line was wholly employed for the protec-
tion of the baggage and siege train, this precaution ap-
pearing to be necessary owing to the very numerous
rebel cavalry. The enemy, who bad come out from the
city with much boldness, and taken position on the left.
bank of the Nuttea Nuddee, having that stream in his
rear, fired his first guns about 7 o'clock a w.
His guns were well placed, advantage being taken
of the road along which we were advancing, and of cer-
tain sand bills. The horse artillery and cavalry ad-
vanced at the trot from both flanks, while the heavy
field battery, with infantry in line, pressed up along the
centre.
In a short time the enemy was driven from his guns,
the left part of our line taking position on the river,
while the right crossed the bridge and advanced about
three-quarters of a mile towards the town. The heavy
guns were rapidly passed over in succession, and placed
in a position from sshich they raked the centre of the
enemy's second line, which he had aken up in the
suburbs. A considerable distance had now been tra-
versed by the troops, and it became necessary to check
the advance to allow time for the siege train and bag-
gage to close up.
Abou', 11 a.m., great activity was ob,erved in the
enemy's ranks ; and, while the attention of my right was
occupied by a considerable body in the suburbs, the
most determined effort that I have seen made in this war
to turn and break through the left, was executed at this
time by the enemy.
Some old cavalry lines bad been occupied by a Seikh
regiment: Suo:. was the vigour with which this regi-
ment, a moat distinguished one (Major Wilde's), under
a mmand of Lb-a-. M`Queran, was 'attacked by a large
body of fanatical GI-ma..., that they gmve wry for a t:.v,
wi:;utt s. Tbe Guyz a., put. •ui,g tb. ir ad va•tage, u,fied
like madmen on the 42d H ghlanders, who had been
formed in line in rear of the village to support the
Seikhs as soon as the hostile movement was descried.
These men were al. killed in the very ranks of the 42d
Highlanders in a most desperate hand-to-hand encoun, eta
The 42d, supported by the 4th Seikhs and a psrt
the 79 Is Highlanders, then advanced, sweeping through
the various lines for about a mile and a-half, into the
cantonments, where they were placed in position for
the day.
W mist the Gbazee attack was going on en the left of
the first line, a very large body of the enemy's cavalry—
some 600 or 700 in nunater—comieg round our ex reme
left, attacked the baggage. They were quickly encoun-
tered by Lieut.-Col. Tomb's Horse Artillery troop, which
after the first advance across the river had been left to meet
snob a contingency, by her Majesty's Cirabineers (at t.
Dragoon Guards), the Moultanee Hor-e and infantry of
the rear guard ; their instant dispersion took place.
Tots was the last effort math' by the enemy. A short
time afterwards, the 79th and 92d were directed to seize
all the suburbs in their front, and the troupe were put
under shade as far as possible, the ac.ion having lasted
for about six hours, and the troops having been under
.111118 from two a in.
Early on the n,V, morning, the 6th inst., the who's
force advanced into the cauteeteeni. At the same time
I had the pleasure to bear Brigadier-General Jones's
guns on the Moradebad Hide of Bareilly. This officer
had obeyed his instructions with great judgment and
spirit, defeated a portion of the enemy on the Eth inst.,
taking twee guns; and finding hi ..self resisted in his
approach to the town on the Gth, took three more which
wrre in po-itiun against hint, entered the town, and
took three advanced positions without delay.
On the morning of the 7th, the town was finally le-
(awed and the Museulman portion af it, where there
were still detached bodies of Ghazeee remaining with the
intention to sell their lives as dearly as possible, was
cleared.
When I passed through Shajehanpore, I was informed
the Fyzehad Moulvie and the Nawab of the former place
were at Mohuaidee with a considerable body of men who
had retired froin Shabjehanpure, I thought it would be im-
politic to leave the oixtr ct of tbat name without evi-
oe,:ce of our pleseece; a post Was tbereloie formed con-
sisting of 500 of li.M.'e 821 Foot, a detachment of artil-
lery, with two 24-pounders and two 9-pounders, and De
Kantzow's Her: e, under the command of Lieut.-Col.
Hale, C. 8., 11.M.'e 82,.1 Foot. He was directed to hold
the large enclosure of the gao'. I anticipated that, as
soon as my back was turned, the Moulvie and the Nawab
wouid annoy him. This txpectation turned out ,o be
correct, and ins tee 3d lest, be was attacked and invested
by immense bodies of cavalry. The guns brought
against
him were of very insignificant calibre, and he
I writes that he had no casualties within his b treechmente.
Brigadier-General Jones marched this morning with a
force as per margust to his relief. The brigadier-general
has a discretionary power to attack Mohuindee atter the
relief has been effected. I have not as yet received
Brigadier-General Jones's despatch of his own operations
on the sth and 6:,h inst.. hut i,will be forwarded to the
secretary of Government for submission to your for ship
in due course. In the meantime, I beg to recommend
most favourably to your lordship the brigadi-r-general

immediate command. Their alacrity to meet the enemy
on all occasions is of course what your lordship exle'=A;'4
from them ; but I must not lose this opportunity of
bearing my testimony to the con tanfl displayed by all
ranks of the force in the performance of their duty
during the great and incessant heat of this season of the
year. It is difficult to speak too highly of that cheerful
endurance of 'intense fatigue to which we are indebted
fer the victories gained at a comparatively trifling loss
on the day of battle.
I beg to return my thanks to the officers of the staff
and officers commanding regiments and corps employed
during the campaign of Rohilcund, and to append a list
of their names.—l have, &0., Q. CAMPBELL,

THE HEAT AT CALCUTTA.

The following is an extract from the private let-
ter of a medical officer in India.- It is dated Cal-
cutta, June 11, 1858 : •
In the last fortnight every one has been in a hot-
air bath, the temperature rising occasionally in the
coolest part-of the house to 100 degs. Fahrenheit,
and the ground becoming so heated, that for hours
after the sun has set therels no perceptible change
in the temperature of the air. Some persons say it
was hot and dry iu 1851 ; but others, and among
these are old natives, a-sert there has not been such
a trying season for the last 40 ye3rs. In the upper
provinces they suffer from the hot winds, but they
have the adiantage of comparatively cool nights.
We have lost a serious number of men from apoplexy,
induced by the heated wmosphere or brought on by
direct exposure to the sun, There‘have been a great
twiny deaths among he peaale connected with the
shipping in the river ; their names seldom appear
in the kcal newspapers, for the victims are only
known iu a very limited sphere, and all within the
Circle become innate-that ly aware of them _decease.
Everyone is praying- for the rain. to come. It is a
mistake to suppose the natives bear such heat as
we have had lately with impunity. They cora-
pliin greatly of it, and have IlLir instances of coup
de soleil, their sun fevers, and other heat diseases,
just as Europeans have. Of course they are not
as frequent, nor generally so severe : cus,om, mole
of life, and teeir light muslin costume, jus.t pro-
'ecieg the skin, but leaving every movement of
the body free and llama', render them less liable
to such diseases, and moderate them when they
happen. Tney suffer from the eruption known as
prickly heat, old and young ; the only persons
among the natives said to be altogether free from
it are the coolies, and those of lower caste, who
wear no clothes excepting the cloth about their
loins. They are never known to have it. Per•
haps, therefore, the hydropathic treatment to
which persons who wear clothes are involuntarily
subjected (for take what precaution one may they
become so many wet bandages) is the real source
of this tropical plague, by artificially causing cer-
tain pores of the skin to contract, blocking up the
perspiration in their tubes, and so giving rise to
that itching, and tingling, and peculiar sensation,
as if one were wounded by little flights of Lillipu-
tian arrows, from which the " prickly heat" de-
rives its name. The skin becomes nearly as rough
as a nutmeg-grater, from the projecting locked-up
globules of perspiration, which seem struggling to
escape from the red irritated surface in their
neighhourhood. Farewell peace and rest when
this torment becomes at all aggravate) from any
cause. However, it is the le ,st of the evil conse-
quences of such weather as we have had lately. In-
deed, some persons argue that, like the mosqui,os,
prickly heat is a special provision fur our welfare—
goading us up to muscular exertiou, when, without
it we should be passively yielding and sinking under
the torpifying influences around us, with almost as
fatal a result as if we were resigning ourselves to
the deadly sleep induced by extreme cold. It is
satisfactory, perhaps, to see advantages even in
mosquito bites and prickly heat.
Atter the above was written, between four and
five o'clock in the afternoon of S rturday, June 12,
Calcutta was visited by a storm of thunder, light-
ning, and rain, leading many persons fondly to hope
that the rainy season had at last set in. -The tem-
pest was a fine sight from the house on the bank
of the river where I was staying. The sun was al-
toady declining towards the west, when the glare
becoming partly sof end and obscured, and the
muttering sound of very distant thunder, led me
to open the jeilmils (Venetian doors opening upon
the verandah), to look out and ascertain if there
were a chance of the much-desired rain coming.
Low down in the west I saw a clerk hank or clouds
seemingly much agitated ; and, judging 'Lore from
the mist preceding it than from the dark mass itstlf,
rapidly ad.ameing in the ctre.tti,ph where I was
z Very shortly alt. rwards the sue became
compleeely hidden. Then the tops of the tall trees
near me began to bend and to rustle, while the kites
and the crows whirled round and cried, as if enjoy-
ing the coming change. As the storm quickly c tine
on, there rose up on the opposite shore large
columns of dust toe ering above the thick trees and
tall palms, here and there altogether screening them
from view. The surface of the' hrTatt riv ere-whiche
before was smooth as glass, bee true covert cl with
waves and foam, and the boats, which had not al-
ready obtained shelter, were driven on wi h amaz-
ing rapidity. Notheag now could be heard but the
constant roar of the wind and the crashing of the
thunder. The dark clouds, or rather cloud, for it
now seemed like one huge canopy stretched across
the sky, drawn forcibly by some invisible attraction
towards the east and the south, hurried on, pre-
senting at its advancing margin a defined, clerk,
circular outline. Be) ond this margin there was the
bright sky, every moment diminishing in area,
but still without a cloud. For some time-no rain
fell. Before long, however. there fell a few heavy
drops ; then, just as the wind had advanced mighti e
seen the rain advancing from the opposite sht••re. It
was no longer the dust which obscured the sight of
the trees and houses, but the sheet of falling rain.
Then the water of the river iu a great degree ceased
to be broken into waves, but became white and
misty, lashed by the driving shower. And then it
came close at hand, refreshing beyond description,
cooling the air, the earth, and everything, and
beating down the clouds of dust which the storm
had raised from the dried ground till the air was
darkened, and rendered so suffocating that men and
animals were compelled to seek shelter from its in-
fluence. The trees, the shrubs, the grass seemed
to drink the moisture with avidity ; one might see
the drooping leaves revive aud gather strength as
the rain fell upon them. By the time the first vio-
lt.nce of the tempest was beginning to subside,
ti e
whole of the sky was overcast. Instead of the bril-
liant dazzling light which a short time before was
pervading the atmosphere, and reflected from the
white Bosses, the water, the trees, and every object
around, all was now of the same slaty subdued hue.
It is only in a tropical climate that such a contrast
between intense light and ordinary shade can he
visible, and the effect is proportionably impressive.
One is so accustomed to the universal brilliancy,
that its occasional absence, though agreeable
enough, is always accompanied with a certain
amount of depression and gloom. The rain of this
storm fell about an hour, aud then, as the light-
ning wed thunder grew more distant and fainter,
gradually ceased. No rain has fallen since, but we
have not had such intense heat as had been pre-
ceding it. It may be judged how welcome even
such a fall of rain as that I have described mast be,
when I mention that, before the storm commenced
the thermometer under the shade of the verandah
was between 95 deg. and 96 deg. F. ; while a short
time after the ruin had been falling it stood at 81
deg. F., a difference of nearly •16 degrees of tern-
pet& me. There is one circumstance connec ed
with storms in Lower Bengal that seems worthy
of notice. From the perfectly dead level of the
t
alluvial deposit w' ich constitutes the country, it
might have been imagined that a
the thunder wou
not have been FO loud or prolonged s 113 ad
lOra rocky
and mountainous countries. But the fact is not
so. I never heard louder peals, a greater amount of
reverberation, or more length,- n, d rolls of thunder
iu Switzerlaud, or in any other pert of the world,
than I have heard here. Whether this depends
upon intensity of the lightning or the state of the
a•mosphere I cannot pretend to say.
