THE VICTORIA CROSS.

(From the Landon Gazette of this evening.)

WAR-OFFICE, JAN. 15.
111 The Queen has bean graciously pleased to signify her
intention to confer the decoration of the Victoria Cross
on the under-mentioned Officers and Men of her Majesty's
Army. who have been recommended to her Majesty for
that Decoration, in accordance with the rules laid down
in her Majesty's Warrant, of the 29th of January, 1856,
on account of Acts of Bravery performed by them in
India, as recorded against their several names ; viz. :-
78th Regiment—Lieutenant Joseph P. H. Crowe,
now Captain, 10th Regiment—For being the first to
enter the redoubt at Bonrzekee Chowkee, the entrenched
village in front of the Busherut-Gunge, on the 12th of
August. (telegram from the late Major-General Sir
Henry Havelook to the Commander-in-Chief in India,
dated Cawnpore, 18th August, 1857.)
10th Regiment—Lieut. Henry Marshman Havelock,
now Captain, 18th Regiment—" In the combat at
Cawnpore, Lieutenant Havelock was my aide-de-camp.
. The 64th Regiment had been much under artillery fire,
from which it had severely suffered. The whole of the
infantry were lying down in line, when, perceiving that
the enemy had brought out the last reserved gun, a 24-
. pounder, and were rallying round it, I called up the
regiment to rise and advance. Without any other word
from me, Lieutenant Havelock placed himself on
his horse, in front of the centre of the 64th, oppo-
site the muzzle of the gun. Major Stirling com-
manding the regiment, was in front, dismounted, but
the Lieutenant continued to move steadily on in front
of the regiment at a foot pace, on his horse. The gun
discharged shot until the troops were within a short
distance, when they fired grape. In went the corps, led
by the Lieutenant, who still steered steadily on the gun's
muzzle until it was mastered by a rush of the 64th."—
(Entract of a telegram from the late Major-General Sir
Henry Havelock to the Commander-in-Chief in India,
dated Cawnpore, August 18, 1857.)
9th Lancers—Privates Thomas Hancock and John
Purcell—" The guns, I am happy to say, were saved,
but a waggon of Major Scott's battery was blown up.
I must not fail to mention the excellent conduct of a
Sowar of the 4th Irregular Cavalry, and two men of the
9th Lancers, Privates Thomas Hancock and John Pur-
cell, wbe, when my horse was shot down, remain id by me
Throughout. Oneof theseinen and theSo war offered me
their horses, and,l was:dragged out by the Sowar's horse.
Private Hancock was severely wounded, and Private
Purcell's horse was killed under him. The Sowar's name
is Roopur Khan."—( Extract of a letter from Brigadier
J. H. Grant, C. 8., Commanding Cavalry Brigade of
the Field Force, to the Deputy Assistant Adjutant
General of Division. Dated Camp, Delhi, June 22,
1857.
