LONDON, MOND.I.Y, MAY 31, 1858.

The intelligence from India is still of a che-
quered character. In some parts all is coleur de
rose—matters are proceeding as satisfactorily as
could be anticipated ; while in others we hear of
reverses, accompanied by the loss of gallant officer's
and of many efficient soldiers. Such a state of
affairs is for some time inevitable. It cannot be
averted by any strategy. We are still contend.
ing against large numerical majorities. At
Delhi a large proportion of the mutineers and
rebels, who thought "discretion the better part
of valour," and were thoroughly cognisant of the
fact that "he who fights and runs away may live
to fight another day," escaped into Oude, and
co-operated with the Lucknow insurgents. There
• they hoped to gratify their sanguinary propensi-
ties, and to witness the destruction, and perhaps
something worse than the destruction, of the hated
Feringhees. But the self-sacrificing devotion of
HATELoon—the unflinching courage of OUTRAM—
and the skilful tactics, and brilliant strategy of
CAMPBELL, completely disappointed their anticipa-
tions. The fugitives at Lucknow were rescued. The
chivalrous brows had not worked in vain. At
the eleventh hour the inspiring notes of the
Hieland'i
safety and pibroch conveyed the glad tidings of
succour to the fugitives.
But more remained to be accomplished. Al-
though the fugitives
were preserved from the
awful fate to which they had been doomed, Luck-
now, the capital of the rebel state, still remained
in the bands of our opponents. The safety of the
fugitives, the helpless women and innocent chil-
dren, who had passed through an ordeal so terri-
ble, was the first care of Sir Comic. The modern
BAYARD would not risk a combat while their Safely
was dependent on the result. He accordingly
made a masterly retreat, to be speedily followed
by a more masterly advance. He returned
- to Lucknow, having completed the most skilful
arrangements for the destruction or capture of the
