in the toil, has participated in the trials, is stimu-
lated to fresh exertions by the:knowledge that the
efforts to which he contributed have been spoken
of at " home." But the grant of 1001. a year to
Gen. HATELOCK, representing the Brigade, will
disgust these gallant soldiers. Why not give him
a Peerage and a pension, or even the Grand Cross
of the Bath ? How often have they been given
for less important services ? But something more
should be given than mere honorary tokens. Why
not give him the command of a regiment—of the
Bth Highlanders, for instance, who would hail
with delight such a colonel ? It is true that there
sno vacancy just at present. But the PRINCE
CONSORT is colonel of the Grenadier Guards and
of the 60th Rifles, and one of these might be re-
linquished for a time—not the Grenadier Guards,
the pay of which was made treble the ordi-
nary amount as the reward for extraordinary
services. We scarcely expect an act so graceful
And so conscientious, which might be recorded in
he same columns that announced the sums given
by Income-tax defaulters to the Treasury as ex-
piations for the wrongs they had committed.
But some effort should be made, something
done, to show that the avengers of the Cawnpore
massacre are not forgotten, and that there is st'll
feeling at home for those who, by almost super-
human exertions, have vindicated the honour of
the British name !

A very important meeting takes place this day.
The Autocrat and the Emperor ALEXANDER and
Louis NAPOLEON fraternise at Stuttgardt, under
the auspices of that respectable Gentleman Usher,
the King of WURTEMBERG. The interview may
be one of a very common-place character, or it
may be fraught with consequences of vital im-
portance to the peace and tranquillity of Europe.
It may be a mere recognition of the recent impor-
tation into " the family of sovereigns," who a few
years since was not deemed a suitable match for
one having blue blood in her veins—a distant
relative of one of the German despots.
Times have, however, changed, and England is
now to be snubbed, not France. We have proved
impracticable, and would not accept a share
of " the sick man's" assets, however liberally
tendered, and therefore, according to the
policy of PETER, another attempt must be
made—one, too, in a totally different direc-
tion. England and Austria at present stop
the way, and we know not which vehicle may
be ordered to move on by the imperial police-
men. We may probably expect the first notice,
for there is the Indian difficulty, which might in-
duce the belief that we could not vindicate our
own position in a case of emergency. The
parties may, however, reckon without their
host, should they attempt to act on such a notion.
Notwithstanding the Indian Rebellion, we can
still find men and money, all the personnel and
materiel of war, by land and sea, on any adequate

occasion.

It may be that the interview may be for very
beneficial purposes—that the Emperors may be
deairons of diminishing their standing armieP,
and applying the necessary expenditure to the
development of the natural capabilities of
the Nations under their respective sway. It
will, indeel, be truly fortunate if such be the
case. We have, however, seldom, if ever, heard
of the consultations of monarchs being for the good
of their subjects. They are generally devoted to
the best mode of bridling public opinion, and
placing " Kingcraft" in the ascendant ; of
crushing some exhibition of independence, or
enforcing more stringent regulation•. Should it
be otherwise, it will at least have the claim of
novelly to recommend it. We trust it may
be so ; but we confess that we distrust all such
proceedings, and "fear the Greeks even when ten-
dering gifts." A meeting is also appointed between
the CZAR and the Emperor of AUSTRIA. That
will, probably, be to procure the assent of
the latter to the arrangements previously entered
into on the part of Russia and France. It is not
a very dignified position for FRANCIS JosErx,
but as it is the best he can obtain, we suppose
that he must be contented with his lot, and eat
his leek with all possible equanimity.

Why are railways such an everlasting topic for
grumbling ? That ordinary shareholders should
grumble seems reasonable enough ; their dividend .3
in the majority of cases would make any invester
complain ; in some cases next to nothing, and on
• the average hardly above 3 per cent. But what
the travelling public have to grumble about it is
hard to understand. The report of" Captain
GALTON to the Committee of Privy Council nc.w
lies before us, and it is impossible to glance at it
ever so cursorily, without renewed astonishment
at the vastness and general excellence of our rail-
way system. It is not to be expected that news_
paper readers will trouble themselves to wade
through columns of statistics, we will, therefore,
present them with some of the principal facts.
To begin with that of the cost; of course the great
standard for sums of money, short of infinity, is
our National Debt—the amount authorised to be
raised for railway capital is but the trifle of ten
millions short of half that almost fabulous sum of
money I The capital actually raised is nearly
three hundred and nine minims The number
of miles opened, 8,635, may not appear abso-
lutely very great, after such enormous figures,
yet they would traverse the principal width of the
island nearly thirty times ; and " Bradshaw " is
witness that such a network of iron roads is to be
found only in England.
It is, however, when we look at quantity and
quality in regard to passengers and goods' tralfi3
that we are struck with the prodigious magnitude
of our present system of travelling and carriage.
Nearly ONE BLINDER') AND TIIIRTY MILLIONS of
passengers travelled last year by railway I All of
these were whirled along at from twice to four

rather more than nine and one half millions of
tons. Railways carried last year the enormous
total, in round numbers, of SIXTY-FITE MILLIONS
or TONS of merchandise of all kinds, be-
sides the large amount of nearly 10,500,000
head of live stock ! The saving of interest on
money from the rapid delivery of goods, also from
its not being necessary to keep over-large stocks
when goods can be so quickly transferred, must
be a great economy of capital ; but even in regard
to mere amount of tonnage, the railways of Eng-
land now far outvie her commercial navy. The
receipts under this head alone wore more than
13,000,0001. during the year.
It would be satisfactory to know that those at
whose cost this vast engine for commerce, and for
pleasure too, was constructed, were receiving a
fair remuneration for their outlay. This, how-
ever, as we have already stated, is far enough
from being the case. Preference shareholders, of
course, have no reason to complain ; but the ordi-
nary shareholders in perhaps the largest com-
mercial concern in the country do not get the pre-
sent interest of Consols for their money. There
seems, however a fair prospect of some improve-
ment in this respect. Not only is the manage-
ment of Joint-Stock Companies attracting greater
attention, and becoming better looked to, but the
sources of Railway profit are increasing and ex-
penses are diminishing. The report gives ample
details, from which we gather that, omitting
unimportant fractions, while the number of
miles open has increased four per cent.,
the receipts for goods traffic have increased
eight per cent. ; the receipts for passenger
traffic have also increased seven per cant. ; the
increase of passengers carried has been eight per
cent. Concurrently with this increase of receipts,
the working expenses, as compared with them, have
diminished one per cent. as compared with the pre-
vious year. These facts seem to indicate that the
lowest point of depression has been reached, and
that more careful management, combined with in-
creased traffic and receipts, will soon materially
improve the prospects of railways. The Report
observes, that "the steady increase in the net re-
ceipts, in a greater ratio than the increase of the
capital invested, is evidence of sound progress."
Some curious facts, illustrative of the effect of
raising or diminishing fares, are stated by Capt.
GALTON. Both in England and Scotland a dimi-
nution in the first-class fares, has been followed
by an increase in receipts from first-class passen-
gers. The raising of second-class fares has bee❑
followed by little variation in the receipts; which
must indicate, of course, fewer second class pas-

sengers, they having been probably attracted by
the lower first class fares. They may, however,
have resorted to the third class; since the average
fares for that class have also been diminished,
with a large increase in the receipts ; this in-
cludes, however, excursion trains.
It would appear, therefore, on the whole, that
increase of fares has not increased revenue, while
lowered fares have been followed by a corre-
sponding advance in the receipts. This is en-
couraging, because the wider the basis of support,
even were the net revenue the same, the less
liable would it be to fluctuation. There is per-

haps an apparent partial exception in Scotland.
Third class fares have been raised there, and the

thixd class receipts have risen also. But from
this must be deducted a diminution of the receipts
per mile for second class passengers ; probably,
therefore, the effect of raising the Scotch third
class fares has been a loss of what might have been
gained from the working classes by lower charges.
The aggregate receipts from all sources of railway
traffic are about equal to the receipts for the Cus-
toms of the United Kingdom ; both are in round
numbers 23,000,0001. The coincidence is cer-
tainly a singular one. The railways have by ju,t
35,000/. the advantage of the Customs. The re-

ceipts from goods traffic are now 2,858,0001 in
excess of those for passengers.
We see very plainly from the report how much
we must have sacrificed to mismanagement or haste
in the construction of our railways, and probably
more than by anything to the interested Parlia-
mentary opposition, and the avarice of landholders.
The cost per mile of the English railways is much
the highest ; but the average cost of all has been
35,4591. per mile for the railways open. The
average cost of the independent lines of railway
for which ads have been obtained since 1848, and
which are now open has been only 9,568/. per
mile—little above one-fourth of the former sum
To the landed aristocracy of the country we owe
the larger part of the extra cost of railways. We
see in Mr. SMILES' Life of STEPHENSON, that in
January, 1856, out of 286,000,0001. invested
in railway property, 70,000,0001. or about one-
fourth had gone to the landholders ! Row this
went, a single fact may explain. For the Lon-
don and Birmingham Railway the fairly estimated
value of the land was 250,0001. The amount
paid, after the first bill had been thrown out by
the House of Lords, at a cost of 32,0001. to the
company, was about 750,000/. Perhaps in no
chapter of their history do landlords cut a sadder
figure than in their opposition to railways. They
not only opposed them in Parliament, at a ruinous
cost to the promoters, not only compelled them to
make detours involving costly cuttings and tun-
nels, causing a gratuitous waste of millions, but
even after an enormous price had been obtained
for laud on the ground of injury to the property,
if the companies wanted more of the same laud
they were frequently charged an advanced price
on account of the increased value given it by- the
railways. Of all parties benefited by railways
the landlords have the largest share. Besides re-
ceiving as a body the value of the land in the
increased value of their property, they and their
lawyers have probably received in hard cash a
sum of not leas than SEVENTY-SEVEN MILLIONS
sterling.

His Royal Highness the Commander-in-Chief and the
Duchess and Princess Mary of Cambridge and suite, iu•
eluding the Lady Geraldine Somerset, Lord Burgher-b,
Baron Knesebeck, Ct 1. Clifton, Cul. Mande, &,u., arrived
at the Royal Ship Hotel, Dover, on Thursday, from
Calais and Paris, in the new mail packet Pi ince Fie le-
rick William, specially ordered for the service. Captain
Stuithett attended their Royal Highnesses across the
Channel, and they were received at Dover tinder a salute
from the heights by the Admiralty Superintendent, Com-
mander M'llwaine, and a guard of honour furnished by
the 25th Regiment, commanded by Col. LP ssonP, aecom•
panied by the excellent band of the regiment. After
dinner at the Ship Hotel, to which Captain Smithett
had the honour to he invited, the Royal Duke and his
military attendants proceeded to London. Their Royal
Highnesses the Duchess and Princess Mary of Cambridge
and suite remained at Dover on Tnursday night, and ar-
rived in London yesterday afternoon. The Commander-
in-Chief and his aides-de-camp have been on a vLit to
the Imperial Camp at Chalons, and have been the guests
of the Emperor in the Said.
We have reason to believe that at the Privy Council.
held at Balmoral yesterday a Royal proclamation era,
issued, setting apart a day for national humiliation acid
prayer in consequence of the unfortunate events ariPitig
from the Indian mutinies. The day selected for thi,
ourpose would in all probability be Sunday, the 4tli of

WYLD'S GREAT GLOBE, LEICESTER-
SQUARE.

DIORA.MA OF DELHI.

Mr. Wyld, who, in his capacity of chief national car-
tographer, has issued several maps of extreme utility and
finish, illustrating the arena of the stupendous struggle
now being waged in our Indian territories, has further-
more produced at his celebrated establishment in Leices
ter-square, a splendid pictorial representation of the
bead-quarters of the great rebellion. Delhi, the imperia)
city of Mahomedan tyranny in Ilindoetan, is presented
on the canvass in the vivid hues of reality, and the spec-
tator is enabled, by this admirable work of art, to rea-
lise the position and the peculiar features of a place) of
such painful celebrity, the very name of which, at the
present moment, excites the most intense sensations in
every British breast. The principal view is taken
from the cantonments of our army overlooking the city,
and affords a perfect idea of its great fortified
strength. 'We see the red granite wall by which
it is surrounded, forty feet in height ; the famous
seven gates facing to the different provinces of the once
Mahomedan empire of India ; the Grand Canal run-
ning through the city ; the Jumna River ; the Musjeed ;
the English Church, and Magazine (she scene of young
Willoughby's heroic act) ; Roshur•ud-Dowlah, cr Nadir
ibah's MoSque ; the ruins of temples and grand to sibs,
hickly strewn ; and the decaying palaces and castles of
ancient Delhi. Views are likewise afforded of the
Chaudin Chunk, or thriving main strset of the modern
own, with its shops and bazaars ; and cf the King's
Palace, with its famous marble hall, together with the
ielimghur, or fort ; the river Janina, and the bridge of
coats, since destroyed by the rebate ; in fact, an agg,re-
;ate of all the salient characteristics of this important
fortress city. A. museum of the people of the East,
with figures, life siz e in original costumes, arms, &c.,
tends to complete this most valuable and interesting
illustration of the Great Mutiny, which, both while
traitors man the walls of Delhi, and after they shall
nave been held once more by British supremacy after
this most critical and fearful phase of war, must, with-
out doubt, prove to be one of the most attractive exh i-
hitions ever opened in the metropolis. '

RELIEF FOR THE INDIAN SUFFERERS.

MANSION-HOUSE (THIS DAY.)
At a meeting of the committee, held this day, the
following resolutions were unanimously adopted :

1. That the object of this committee is to relieve, as far
as may be practicable and necessary, the distress caused
by the mutinies in India.
2. In so doing, care should be taken not to supersede the
the assistance which ought to be given by the Government,
by the established Widows' and Orphans' Funds, or by
the relations of the sufferers ; but to supplement it to the
extant to which it falls short of a just measure of relief.
3. Compensation for losses as such, will in no case be
given.
1. Subject to the preceding conditions, the efforts of the
Committee will be specially directed.
Ist. To enable the sufferers to live with frugality in
their respective states of life until other moans are
available,

21. To provide for the maintenance and education of
children in cases in which it has been interrupted by
casualties arising out of the mutiny, add in which it can-
not be provided for from other sources.
3 To assist the sufferers to come to this country or to
go to India, when the circumstances render it proper that
they should do so, an i the means of paying for their pas-
sage cannot be obtained trom any other source.
4th. To afford reasonable aid, by loan or otherwise, to
officers and others who have lost their equipments, furni-
ture, or other property, by the necessity of sudden fliv.ht
from their stations or the destruction of their dwellings,
when, without such aid, they would be involved in pecu-
niary embarrassments. •
sth. That relief according. to these principles be given,
without distinction of religion or nationality, to every
person of whatever rank who has a just claim upon the
sympathy and assistance of the British people.

MUSIC ON THE CONTINENT.

(Faou A CORRESPONDENT
WIESBADEN, SEPT. 23.

The administration of the gambling society at these
bates, discreetly resolved that Apollo, Terpsichore,
Teespis, and Diana, should be called in to assist Plutue
on the season's wane, and announced their intention
of celebrating the last weak in this month, by what they
chose, in deference to Anglo-Sax in example and phra-
seology, to term a grand felt 'al, consist'net of a con-
cert, a ball, a theatrical representation of Wagner's
" Tannhauser,'; and a serf of Esping hunt. The first
of these attractive pities came cff most successfully last
night, when Felicien David conducted in person we'l
selected portions of his much admired compositions " Ls
Desert" and " Chrietophe Culemb." Herr Steger and
Fraulein Storck severally distinguished themselves by
the chaste and classical manner in which they sang airs
from the " Zeuberflote " and " Fidetio ;" and Felix
Godefroid excited general admiration by his clever per
formance on that difficult instrument, the harp.
Ilanders great hallelujah chorus was also exceedingiy
well given by the S. Cecilia and Maniiergesane
aesoc.ations of the town ; althoueb, of course, the result
was not comparable to the ttueendoue effect at the
Handel Festival iu the Crystal Palace.
But the great star of the evening was Servais, the
Emperor of violoncells players, who executed two pieces
of his own composition, a fantasie on S'eeavonic mele-
dice, and a caprice on Doniztti's " La Figlia del Ree-
gitnento," with a brilliancy of instrumentation, which
drew down thunders of applause from the large and
critical German audience, that " madethe welkin ring."
It is hard to properly demeibe the various super-excel-
lent merits of this eminent artist, who should be often
beard by the best judges to be appreciated as be de-
serves. His playing combines all that is possible to
imagine to be within the scope of the highest musical
genius and the most indomitable perseverance to accom-
plish on his instrument. The purity of his intonation,
and the power, rapidity, and expression of his bowing and
execution, are not to be surpassed. At onetime you might
suppose yourself listening to the grand tones of the
solemn organ ; at another, to the dulcet breathing of a
flute ; and at a third, to the hand of Tnalberg, or a
Liszt, disentangling the intricacies of a most complicated
passage on the painoforte.
Everything is done with wonderful ease and precision,
and neither effort nor labour are perceptible. In short,
to listen to this most finished artist, is a treat of the very
highest order to all true lovers of music, and it is much
to be regretted that ho has not been' induced to revisit
England, subsequent to his astonishing progress and
perfection since his last appr:arance in London many
years ago. I sincerely trust he may be tempted to again
favour the British isles with his presence. The autumnal
weather still continues marvellously fine, yet the Ger-
man watering places are now thinning fast, and at the
cleee of this Wiesbaden Festival, Paris, and the English
metropolis may look to the speedy advent of the children
of Albion for the winter.

THE DECORATION OF THE VICTORIA
CROSS.

(From the London Gazette of Sept. 25.)
WAR-OFFICE, SEPT. 25.
The Queen has been graciously pleased to signify
her intention to confer the decoration of the Vic-
toria Cress on the undermentioned officers and non-
commissioned officer 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 January, 1856,
on account of acts of bravery performed by them
before the enemy during the late war, as recorded
in connection with their several names, viz. :
Lieutenant Christopher Charles Teesdale, C. 8.,
Royal Artillery ; date of act of bravery, 29th of
September, 1855 ; for gallant conduct in having,
while acting as aide-de-camp to Major-General Sir
William Fenwiek Williams, Bart., K.C.8., at
Kars, volunteered to take command of the force
engaged in the defence of the most advanced part
of the works, the key of the position, against the
attack of the Russian Army ; when, by throwing
himself into the midst of the enemy, who had pene-
trated into the above redoubt, he encouraged the
garrison to make an attack so vigorous as to drive
out the Russians therefrom, and prevent its cap
Lure ; also for having, during the hottest part of
the action, when the enemy's fire had driven the
Turkish artillerymen from their guns, rallied the
latter, and by his intrepid example induced them to
return to their post ; and further, after having led
the final charge which completed the victory of the
day, for having, at the greatest personal risk, saved
from the fury of the Turks a considerable number
of the disabled among the enemy, who were lying
wounded outside the works—an action witnessed
and acknowleiged gratefully before the Russian
Staff by General Mouravieff.
Sergeant Joseph Malone, 13th Light Dragoons ;
date of act of bravery, 25th of October, 1854 ; for
having stopped under a heavy fire to take charge
of aiptain Webb, 17th Lancers, until others ar-
rived to assist him in removing that officer, who
was, as it afterwards proved, mortally wounded.
Sergeant Malone performed this act of bravery
while returning on foot from Vie charge at the
battle of Balaklrava, in which his horse had been
shot.
Captain Henry Mitchell Jones, 7th Fusiliers
(late) ; date of act of bravery, 7th of June, 1855 ;
for having distinguished himself while serving with
the party which stormed and took the Quarries
before Sebastopol, by repeatedly leading on his
men to repel the continued assaults of the enemy
during the night. Although woueded early in the
evening Captain Jones remained unflinchingly at
his post until after daylight the following morning.
Captain Thomas Esmond°, 18th Regiment ; date
of acts of bravery, 18th and 20th June, 1855; for
having, after being engaged in the attack on the
Redan, repeatedly assisted, at great personal risk
under a heavy fire of shell and grape, in rescuing
wounded men from exposed situations ; and also
while iu command of a covering party two days
after, for having rushed with the most prompt and
daring gallantry to a spot where a, fireball from the
enemy had just been lodged, which he -effectually
extinguished before it had betrayed the position of
the working party under his protection, thus saving
it from a murderous fire of shell and grape, which
was immediately opened upon the spot where the
fireball had fallen.

THE REINFORCEMENTS FOR INDIA.

(From Tltacker's Overlani News.)

The following is a complete and corrected list of
the transports which have sailed for India with
reinforcements of troops to supress the Sepoy mu-
tinies ; also the vessels engaged to take out the
last ordered to India, and now embarking. The
dates and numbers having been corrected from the
official list, and the detail of officers embarked
added to each detachment, will account for any dis-
crepancies from the previous statements, and makes
the information in its present form complete.
Those vessels named as destined for Ceylon touch
at Point de G-alle for final orders. The movements
of these vessels of which we have auy tidings are
given in the footnotes.
From the totals given by this list it will be seen
that 77 vessels have already sailed for India since
the news of the revolt first reached home, con-
veying to the assistance of our countrymen a force
of 29,235 men ()flail ranks of Cavalry, Infantry,
and Artillery ; and that a further force of 5,000
men of the Cavalry, Infantry, Artillery, Engineers,
and Field Train will embark almost immediately
for 'the same destination. As the vessels which
first left these shores have now been out close upon
90 day=, we may calculate with some thgree of
certainty that, in addition to the 14,000 reinforce-
ments already tinfied at Calcutta fi oat China, the
Cape, and Mauritius, relief from England will now
daily arrive, and that during next month a force
of over 9,000 men wdl be landed and sent up the
country, to be followed in November by nearly
18,000 men, and in the following month, Deeem.
ber, by nearly 18,000 more, including the 5,000
now embarking ; so that by the close of the year
we shall have increased the British force in India
by at least 48,000 well-seasoned and disciplined
troops of every arm iu the service :

THE MEETING OF THE EMPERORS
OF FRANCE AND RUSSIA.

The following telegraphic despatches have been
received :

STITTTGARDT, SEPT. 24.

The Emperor Alexander arrived here at four
o'clock. His Majesty was received by the King
of Wurtemberg at Feuerbaoh, the station nearest
to this place.
Prince Gortachakoff accompanied the Emperor.
On his arrival at Carlsruhe the Emperor re-
ceived the compliments of the Grand Duke of
Baden.

STRASBURG, SEPT. 25.

The Emperor Napoleon set out this morning
at eight o'clock, accompanied by his suite and the
local authorities. The people saluted his Majesty
with enthusiastic acclamations from Strasburg to
Kiel.

The Emperor will breakfast at Baden, at the
residence of the Grand Duchess Stephanie.
He seemed deeply impressed by the welcome re-
ception given him by the population of Alsace.

STUTTGARDT, SEPT. 25.
The Emperor Napoleon arrived here this after-
noon at half-past four o'clock.
The King of Wurtemberg received him at the
railway station and conducted him to the Palace,
where they were immediately joined by the Em-
peror of Russia.
Contrary to all expectations, the Empress of
Russia will join the party to-morrow.

PARIS, FRIDAY EVENING.

The Milan Official Gazette expresses the satis-
faction of the Austrian Government with the
meeting of the Emperor of the French and the
Czar.

It says that the Czar made the first overtures
for a meeting with the Emperor, and that the
latter would make no promise till he bad Ex-
plained to Queen Victoria at Osborne the motives
and purpose of his visit to Germany.
The fact of the interview being sought by the
Czar (says the Gazette) is sufficiently shown by
his taking a journey from St. Petersburg almost
to the frontiers of France to effect his object.
