alias Constance Brown, was examined yesterday after-
noon, at Marylebone police-office, charged with stealing
a diamond bracelet, the property of Messrs. Hunt and
Roskell, the particulars of which have already appeared
in The Sun. Nothing of interest occurred, The priso-
ner was remanded until Tuesday.
THE CH tRGE AGAINST MR. FENNING.—This gentle-
man attended yesterday at the Greenwich police-court,
to answer the charge of being concerned, with a person
unknown, in stealing a gold watch, the property of Mr.
I Wval, a wholesale cheeseninnger, in Deptford-highway.
Mr. B Akin, who appeared for Mr. Duval, said from in.
quirt' he had made he felt it his duty to advise his client
'to withdraw the charge. It was clearly a case of mis-
taken identite. The Magistrate ordered Mr. Fanning

ton will be ma.erially lessened by the new arrargemente.
One feveurable feature in the constitution of the con-
cern is the appointment of two inspectors, in accordance
with the provisions of the Joint-Stock Companies Act

Hanson being the persons named.
A prospectus bas been issued of the Asia Minor Cen-
tral Railway Company,—an und.-rtaking which has
been contemplated r a long tme past. It is to run
from the port of Samsun on the southern coast
of the Black Sea to S'vas, with a view to an ultimate
extension to Etzeroutn, the capital of Armenia ;
and the authorised sum to bs raised is 4,625,0001,
of which out-third is to be provided by the Otto-
man Government, who give a 7 per cent. gua,autee
on the whole. The proportion to be mmediately sub-
tcribed is 3,000,000 ,in 150,000 shares of 201., of which
the Ottoman Government take 50,000. Alt. surplus
profit beyond 7 per cent. is to belong to the proprietors.
The best feature of the scheme is that it is in the direct
route to the Tigris and the Persian Gulf. According to
resent calculations it is thought a cell of about one-
twelfth of the capital every half-year will meet all re-
quirements.
THE EXTENSIVE PLATE ROBBERY AT LORD FOLEY'S.

BRUTAL ASSAULT BY A DESERTER.—As Mr. Gann,
a farmer, at Beet ersea, near Colchester, was walking
along by the sea wall, on Friday morning, he was over-
taken by a man who begged of him. Mr. Gunn r fused
to give him anything, when the man snatched a pitch•
fork out of Mr. Gunn's hand, knocked him down, and
heat him about the hea t with it till he became insensible.
The man was soon after apprehended, and turned out to
be a deserter from the 38th Foot, named Richard
Cooper. He was t r ,ught before the magistrates, at
Colchester, on Saturday, but as Mr. Gunn was unable
to appear, being in a very precarious state, he was
remanded

A Posen ietter in the Post Arnpt Gazette says :
" All the roads of the kingdom of Poland are at
present covered with 'roops proceeding towards the
south and south-wese Trio number of armed men
in Poland is n.)w double what it was last year. It
apt'e,.rs certa n that it is the trcahles in Bosnia
which have led to this increase of troops." Another
letter from the same lace, in the Augsburg Gazette,
states that authentic documen, s prove that the
whole amount of regular tr.)ops at present in the

BOMBAY, APRIL 9.
The capture of Luckuow, by depriving the enemy

of a rallying point, has scattered the rebels, not
only over Oude and Rohilcund, whither it was ex-
pected they would fly, but southwards into the

districts of Ghorruckpore, Azimghur, and Juanpore,

so that we have now on our hands ox the eastern

shore of the Ganges valley a considerable number
of rebels to deal with, and in the last-named dis-
tricts very few troops to meet them.

We had hoped that by the judicious distributicn
of the forces under Frank,,, Jung Thhactoor, and
Roweroft at various points, the bands led by Mo-
humhee Hoossein, am muting to vvesal thousands
in number, would be thrown back to he Goomtee
and forced to j-in the Lucknow rebelsu their flight

northwards. Franks' victory at Sultaipore seemed
to have attains d that object ; but the roe's, instead
°flailing hack on Lucknow, reti red 'ast wird on Bel wa
and Fyzabad, crossed the Gogra near Rovcroft 's pos -
tion, and en gaged that officer. The rehelswere beaten
at Amora with great loss, Colonel It.wcroft with
only twelve hundred men having kind upwards of
one thousand. and dispersed an aray of 15,000.

But, after the action theinsurgent masses separated;
a part remained at Belwa entren4miAtits„ whilst
the remainder, by a movement to the westward,
down the course of the Gogra, threw themselves
across at Tando, and penetrated into the Ghorruck-
pore and Az'mghur districts, where they were rallied
by Koor Sing, the old arch traitor of Shadabad.
Elated with the possession of so fine a force, Koor
Sing resolved on a march towards Benares, by way
of Azinaghur, and on the 23d his vanguard was
within twEnty miles of that place.
The garrison of Azimghur—a wing of her Ma-
jesty's 37th, under Colonel Milman, and a wing of
the 4th Madras Cavalry—hearing of the approach of

a body of insurgents, wont out to meet them, and
came to action near Atrowba. The victory was
_ _

complete, but was dearly paid for. Colonel Milman
had committed the same mistake as Gen. Wind-
ham, at Cawnpore. Had he been content to wait
for the enemy in the entrenched gaol of Azimghur
ho would have been safe. There were ample means
of defence there. Colonel Milman, after his vic-

tory, retired slowly, hearing doubtless of the ad-
vance of a superior force. But the enemy came
down upon him in overwhelming numbers. Ho lost
his camp, and had to hurry into itzimghur, and
make hasty preparations for defence. Koor Sing
hastened to attack, and on the 24th had completely
surrounded our force and opened batteries on the
entrenchments. No time had been lost in the mean-
while in sending news of the disaster to Benares,
and the news arrived there late on the evening
of the 26th. Fifty dragoons were immediately
sent out in bullock carts, drawn bycoolies, towards
the scene of action. Telegraphic messages were

forwarded to Allahabad, and from thence
to the Commander-in-Chief at Lucknow. A
wing of the 13th and the depot of the 2d, Bays left
Allahabad by forced marches on the 27th for the
scene of the disaster, by way of Benares. The Com-
mander-in-Chief, on his part, took decisive and
rapid measures. On the 28th Sir Edward Lugard,
with the 34th, 84th, and 20th Regiments, the
Military Train, some native cavalry and artillery,
marched rapidly towards Azimghur. There can be
no doubt of the final result. Koor Sing will be
beaten, but great anxiety is felt in the meanwhile
for the garrison.
A letter from Benares of the 27th ult. says :
" I have another reverse to chronicle. Two com•
panies of H.M.'s 54th with Madras cavalry and 100
Siklv, and two guns, I believe, went out with
the magistrate, at a place near Suraon, between
Allahabad and Gobeegunge. As usual, our infor-
mation was most wretched, and which always will
be the case under the present system. The force
came up suddenly to a spot surrounded by a jungle.
A large body of rebels were comtetably settled
therein, ;;nd opened on us with six guns. After
sustaining the fire for au hour, we were obliged to
retreat with the loss of the officer in command of the
Madras cavalry, and very many others, killed and
wounded. Just fancy six guns under the nose of
the magistrate, and he altogether ignorant of the
fact. This occurred the day before yesterday."
Sir Colin Campbell had completed his arrange-
ments for leaving a garrison i 1 Lucknow and
marching against Rohileund. The corps-d'armet
which remains at Luchnow wiil coasist of the 23d,
38th, 53d, 90th, 97th, Ist Madras Fusiliers, 2d
Dragoons, Lahore Light Horse, and a powerful
Artillery under the command of Sir Hope Grant.
The rest of the army forming a flyiig column under
Brigadier-General Walpole, and corimanded by Sir
Colin Campbell in person, will go to Rohilcund.
Our news by post from Oude goes to the 30th of
March. By the 19th all organised resistance had
ceased, but such a vast area of houses could not be
hell by our troops without great inconvenience,
and the inhabitants were invited to return and ran-
som the rest of the town. On the 24th the Grand
Army began to break up, the Ghoorkhas marching
towards Fyzabad, and the siege of Lucknow may
be considered to have terminated. Our total loss
was about 70 officers and 1,100 iten killed and
wounded, that of the enemy it is impossible to com-
pute, but it could not have been less than 4,000
killed.
The following communications describe the events
subsequent to the siege

She shot a lancer dead with a musket from behind

March 22.

The town is being gradually cleared of bud.
mashes, and the civil officers labouring most ener-
getically to encourage the .peaceful inhabitants to
return to their houses and avocations.
March 24.

No doubt there has been great slaughter amongst
the Pandies, and it is reported that 3,000 have been
buried, still it is a great misfortune that so many
have escaped. Everyone is astonished at the quick-
ness with which Lucknow has been taken, and all
say that the whole business does not look like a
campaign.

March 25.

A lot of Zemindars of the surrounding country
have sent in their pugries i❑ token of submission,
and have expressed their readiness to do whatever
tho chief wishes.

March 26.
Jung Babadoor came into Cawnpore with a bri-
gade on the 27th of March.
Penny's brigade was fatal in part of Khasgunge,
keeping a look out on the enomy at the Kutchla
ghaut. It had been much weakened, however, by
