LATEST FROM DELEU.

PALACE, DELHI, Oct. 15.
I wrote to you from Meerut on the 28th ult., en-
closing a list of casualties and giving a few smal
scraps of information—perhaps a little more may
not prove altogether unacceptable.
The ex-Ki,ig, wl:o is living in a snail house
within the Pala:e walls, is to be brought to trial in
a few days for aiding and abetting the mutineers.
Living with him is his favourite wife, Zeeuut Mahal,
and her son Jumma Bukbt, a lad of about 17 or 18
years old. Two of the King's sons, the Princes
Mirza, Buektawur Shah and Mirza Mendhoo, were
tried last week for aiding and abetting the muti-
nee's. 0113 of them was appointed colonel of the
11th Native Infantry, and the other of the 74th ;
they were tried by- a military commission of five
officers, with Brigadier-General Chamberlain as
President. Evideoco was produced before the
Court, principally documentary, consisting of re-
ports, returns, &e., bearing the prisoners' seals.
showing that they exercised command of their regi-
ments and acted. In their defence they pleaded
total ignorance of ties intention of the Sepoys to
mutiny, and sail that when the Meerut mutineers
first reached IMIn on the 11th of May they (the
Princes) thought it was a Russian invading army !,
They were then summoned to an audience by the
King, and a few days after were appointed colonels
of regiments at the iequcst of the Sepoys them-
selves.

The Court, however, found the prisoners guilty,
and sentenced them to death ; aud, accordingly,
yes'erday, they were shot, by a party of the 60th
Rifles. Detachments of Rifles, Artillery, Sappers,
and Goorkhas were present, and n great number
of spectators. The bodies were cast into the
Jumna River.

The city continues empty of all its former inhabi-
tants, though many are attempting to negotiate
with the prize agents for the ransom of their houses
and property. It is supposed a large amount of
prize money will be collected. Nothing as yet is
known as to whether this place is to be retained as
a garrison or not. The country is about settling
down and the people becoming wonderfully civil.
A. force is out, under Brigadier Showers, "punish-
ing rebels and bringing them to a sense of their duty
and allegiance. I mentioned in my last that two
Engineer officers were to receive the " Victoria
Cross." I regret to say Lieutenant Salkeld has
died of his wounds ; the other, Lieutenant Home,
was unfortunately killed by an explosion when
destroying a fort near Bolundshuhur. They are
deeply lamented. At Meerut all is quiet.- Hero
the sick and wounded are improving, as the
_cold
weather is setting in.

The 17 ienna Gazette says :—" Count Valentin
Esterhazy, the Austrian ambassador to St. Peters..
burg, woo has been on leave of absence .for six
months, has just returned to the capital. He has
requested the government to appoint him to some
other embassy instead of that at St. Petersburg,
and it is thought probable that his wish will be
complied with."

HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE.
GREAT CLASSICAL CONCERTS.
A HAYDN NIGHT,
A MOZART NIGHT,
A BEETHOVEN NIGHT,
A MENDELSSOHN NIGHT, and
A WEBER NIGHT.
M. JULLIEN has the honour to announce that, in cause-
qnence of the great number of persons unable to obtain admis-
sion during the last performance of the " Indian Quadrille,"
Le has made arrangements to postpone his departure for the
provinces, and to give a few more concerts at Her Majesty's
Theatre. The great and unprecedented success attending
the " Indian Quadrille," and the other works lately pro-
duced, has prevented M. Jullien giving those classical nights
which he was the first to introduce to the English public,
and which have always been received with such distinguished
favour by musical amateurs and the public generally.
In order to comply with the repeated requests of his nume-
rous patrons, M. Jullien has arranged for a SECOND SERIES
OF CONCERTS, which must necessarily be of very limited
duration, owing to his departure on his provincial tour
shortly before Christmas. They will commence TO-NIGHT,
December 1. It is M. Jullien's intention to give, during
their continuance, a " Haydn Night," a " Mozart Night," a
" Beethoven Night," a " Mendelssohn Night," and a "Weber
Night." On these occasions the first part of the programme
will be selected solely from the works of one of these great
masters. The second part will be varied as usual
Madlle. Jetty Trail's, and M. Edouard Remenyi.
THIS EVENING (TUESDAY, December Ist), will
be produced the New Grand Descriptive Composition,
by M. Jullien, entitled THE INDIAN QUADRILLE,
and GENERAL HAV ELOCK'S TRIUMPHAL MARCH,
performed by M. Jullien's Orchestra, assisted by the drums
and fifes of the Grenadier Guards, the Coldstream Guards,
and the Scots Fnsilier Guards ; and a Grand Chorus, " Rule
Britannia," and "God Save the Queen."
M. Jullien has the satisfaction of announcing that he
has succeeded in retaining the services of that popular
vocalist, Madlle. JETTY TREFFZ. At the close of this
Second Series of Concerts, Madlle. Jetty Treffz will leave
London for Vienna, M. Jullien having been unable to
induce her to stay, even for his provincial tour. Soloists
of the highest celebrity are also engaged for each of the
Classical Nights, including the celebrated pianiste, Miss Ara-
bella% Goddard, and the Hungarian artiste, M. Edouard Re-
inenyi, solo violinist to her Majesty.
The magnificent decorations which were prepared for the
Bal Masque will remain during the continuance of these Con-
certs. The whole theatre will be ornamented with wreat,'s
and garlands of flowers, in gold, silver, and colours. The
decorations have been prepared by Messrs. Chabot and Co.,
who were c' arged with the decorations for the grand ball at
the reception of the E.aiperor Napoleon 111, at Stuttgart,
and who were engaged, at a great expense, for the express
purpose of arranging at her Majesty's Theatre a display which
will be seen for the first ti ne in this country.
M. Jullien feels confident that he will receive, for his Second
Series of Concerts, a continuance of that distinguished pa-
tronage and support which have already been so freely ac-
corded to him.
The Concert will commence at 8 o'clock.
