THE FALL OF DELHI.

BIBMINGI3AM, Tuesday.—The short telegraphic de-
spatch announcing the capture of Delhi, which arrived
in this town shortly after 6 o'clock yesterday evening,
was welcomed with the greatest enthusiasm. The news-
a2ents, by whom it was received, immediately comma
nicated the fact to the principal hotels, the theatre, the
town-ball, the concert-rooms, and other places of public
amusement; and upo❑ its announce►nent, the various
audiences gave the intelligence a hearty and cheating
welcome. Later in the evening The Sun, containing the
official intelligence, arrived by express, and added to
the excitement.

N OTTIR GHAM.—The intelligence of the taking of Delhi
arrived in Nottingham about 9 o'clock on Monday night,
by electric telegraph, and was received with the greatest
enthusiasm. The " firing "of the bells of the various
churches in the town prociaimed the joyful news to those
of the inhabitants who were not previously acquainted
with it. The information was received by the manu-
facturers and merchants assembled in the Commercial
Exchange with a cordial round of applause. The arrival
of The Sun confirreed the fact, and the telegram was
posted outside the various newspaper offices, thereby
satisfying the inhabitants of the correctness of the state-
ment. Flags waved from different buildings in the
town, and the news has imparted an intensity of joy,
which, considering that no one doubted the certainty of
Delhi being taken, could scarcely have been expected.
The feeling in the town is that the mutineers should be
visited by a strict retribution.
LIVERPOOL—EarIy on Tuesday the bells of various
churches in this town rang forth a merry peal, and con-
tinued to do so throughout the day, on account of the
fall of the city of Delhi. Many of the shops, too, dis-
played large banners, and the ships in the docks and in
the river also exhibited their gayest bunting. The
intelligence was communicated on Monday night to the
audience at the Theatre Royal previous to the com-
mencement of Professor Anderson's performances, and
was greeted with three cheers.

By 20 minutes to the appointed time (2 o'clock) the
jockeys had weighed out, and the number of the
competitors was announced in the Ring. It was,
however, about 20 minutes to 3 before the starter
dropped his flag. The delay was caused principally by
the " fractiousness" of Fanny Gray and the impatience
of El Hakim. Fanny repeatedly lashed out with her
hind lege, and once hit Tricolour and gave El Hakim
a "stunner" on the head ; the horse, however, did
not seem affected by the kick. After much wheeling
and turning about, the signal was given and an admi-
rable start effected. El Hakim and the Plush colt, who
were slightly in advance when the flag fell, were the first
off, but on the horses getting into their stride Madlle. de
Chantilly and Whistling Willie, the latter perhaps with a
slight lead, went to the front, closely followed by Peeping
Tom, Queen Bess, Gilliver, Odd Trick, Moisstissima, and
Artillery, as nearly as could be determined in the order
named, with El Hakim, Plush colt, Cerva, Tricolour,
Kestrel, Rosa Bonheur, Saunterer, Fright, M, Dobler,
and Bird-in-the-Hand running nearly " level," and at the
head of a ruck which stretched in a long line across the
course. The foremost horses maintained their relative
positions to the Duke's stand, where the shifting colours
showed that the "tailing" had commenced, At that
point a "crack of a whip" caused Whistling Willie
to lay back his ears and atop as if he was shot,
leaving Mademoiselle de Chantilly with an undis-
puted lead ; Artillery, Gilliver, Peeping Tom, Queen
Bess, and others who had shown prominently in
the race disappeared one by ens from the front
Cyrene, who had been hidden in the ruck, now coming
to the front, Saunterer and Cyrene went on in close
pursuit of Mademoiselle de Chantilly, who was passed
by Odd Trick midway between the Duke's Stand and
the winning-chair ; Mademoiselle, after running second
for a few strides, gave way successively to Mosstissima
and Saunterer. From the time of Odd Trick's taking
the lead the result was scarcely in doubt. Re had been
" ridden" at the Duke's Stand, but this jockey soon
found that he had his opponents safe, and sending him
along, won easily by two lengths Mcestissima beating
Saunterer by a neck only for second place ; Cyrene was
fourth, about three lengths from the third and half a
length is advance of Mdle de Chantilly, who was fifth ;
Bird-in-the-Hand was sixth, Tricolour leading the next
lot, which was widely scattered ; Babylon (who with his
stable companion, Prioress, never showed in the race)
was absolutely last.

MADAME TUSSAUD'S EXHIBITION.—Among the many
interesting figures contained in the Royal Group, none
surpass either in life-like appearance or admirable
execution the portraits of the Emperor and Empress of
Austria. His Imperial Majesty is represented in the
uniform of an Austrian General, decorated with the Star
of Maria Theresa and the Golden Fleece. The Empress
is in a most splendid court dress, decorated with numer-
ous splendid jewels.
GOVERNMENT IN THE ENGLISH COLONIES.—A return
yesterday published shows that the system of local
Parliamentary Government has been adopted in the fol-
lowing colonies of the empire, the grants of the mother
country towards the charge f civil government being in
each case annexed—viz., in North America—Canada,
3,500/. ; Nova Scotia, nil ; New Brunswick, nil ; Prince
Edward Island, 1,4001.; Newfoundland, nil; Bermuda,
4,0501.; and Vancouver's Island, nil. In Australia—
New South Wafee, Victoria, South Australia, Tasmania,
and New Zealand, nil. In the West Indies—Jamaica,
3,5001., 7,2001.; Bahamas, 1,2001.; BarbaJoes, 4,5501,,
9001.; St. Vincent, 1,3001., 9001.; Granada, 1,300/,,

serrat, 5001., 4501.; Dominica, 1,3001.,' 1,800/4 St.
Christopher's, 1,3001., 1001., 9001.; Nevis, 5001., 450/.;
and the Virgin Islands, 8001., 4501., 1781. And in
Afrioa—the Cape of Good Hope, 40,0001. The large
grant to the Cape of Good Hope is only a temporary
, one, for the civilisation of the barbarous Oaffre tribes.

The Journal de St. Petersbourg of the 18th inst.:
contains the following official notice :
" Since the re-establishment of peace some
doubts have arisen relative to the navigation and
commerce of foreign countries in the Black Sea.
In order to remove all uncertainty in this matter,
the Imperial government believes it right to bring
the following to the knowledge of the public, and
especially of foreign merchants :—As the Treaty of
Paris solemnly proclaimed, the ports and waters of
the Black Sea are open to the mercantile marine
of all nations. Free from every obstacle, commerce
in the ports and waters of the Black Sea has been
subject only to sanitary customs and police regu-
lations, conceived in a spirit favourable to the de-
velopment of commercial transactions. Such are
the objects expressed in the Treaty of Paris. The
imperial government, as far as it is concerned, in-
tends scrupulously to conform to them. But the
maintenance of sanitary customs and police regula-
tions, however liberal the spirit in which they are
conceived, requires measures of surveillance, and
along the Asiatic coasts of the Black Sea these are
doubly necessary, on account of the internal con-
dition of the Caucasian provinces.
" Some establishments of quarantine and customs
exist at Anapa, Soukhoum-Kale and Redout
Kale. These three points are the only ones at
present open to foreign vessels. If; In future, cir.
cumstances allow of the establishment of customs
and quarantine authorities at other parts of the
same coast, and the admission of foreign vessels,
notice of the same will be given to merchants ;
meanwhile the approach to the ports, bays, and
harbours of the Asiatic coast, with the exception
of Anapa, Soukhoum-Kale and Redout-Kale' is
prohibited by foreign vessels. To establish the
regularity of this destination, foreign vessels will
be required to procure a vise of their papers by
Russian Consular agents.
" The imperial government has no intention of
impeding in any way the development of lawful
and regular commercial intercourse. It is in the
interest of the sanitary state of its coasts much
more than from fiscal considerations, in the interest
of public order, which is as beneficial to foreign as
to national commerce, that the imperial govern-
ment will watch over, as it has a right to do, the
maintenance of the restrictions above announced.
Every attempt, therefore, of for.ign navigators to
communicate with the coast,- excepting at Anapa,
Soukhouw-Kale, and Redour-Kale, will provoke
on the part of the Russian authorities the measures
of repression decreed against smuggling and viola-
tions of sanitary laws. Those who expose them-
selves in this manner must bear the consequences
of their conduct."

A Vienna letter of the 20th in the Augsburg
Gazette says that Baron Werner, who is charged
with the ad interim, administration of Foreign
Affairs, had informed the Russian Ambassador,
Baron de Budberg, that the Austrian Cabinet con-
sidered the recent resolution of the Russian govern-
ment, to open only the three ports of Amapa, Souk-
houm-Kale, and Redout-Kale to European com-
mercial vessels, not in accordance with the treaty
of Paris relative to the Black Sea. The letter adds
that it was probable that a representation to the
same effect would be made by the Austrian ambas-
sador at St. Petersburg to the Russian cabinet.
