ALLAHABAD.

At Allahsbad the mutiny broke out on the 4th instant ;
when the "loyal" 6th B.egiraent, which had volunteered
to proceed to Delhi against the rebels, only a few days
before, became the assassins of their own officers, and then
marched off to join the mutineers, after burning the church
and every bungalow in the place, and looting the Treasury.
The whole number slaughtered amounted to 26, and among
them we find the name of Captain Birch, the Fort Adjut-
ant, and the following officers :—Lieut. Innee. ex-Engi-
neer ; Lieut. Alexander, 2d Light Cavalry; Capt. Plun-
kett, 6th Native Infantry; Lieutenants Stewart and
Hawes, ditto ; Ensign Munro (doubtful) ; Ensigns Scott,
Cheek, Dodd, Smith, Way, and Smith (doing duty with
the regiment). The Irregular Cavalry and Ferozepore
regiment are said to have remained loyal, and the felt
being garrisoned by a few English troops is probably safe.
Not a European, however, remains outside the walls, and
the last accounts from the city portray the most frightful
state of matters there. A correspondent of the Phcenix
writes :---
I " Allahabad is in a most wretched state. All the houses
are in a dilapidated state from cannonading. Not a single
i bungalow has been left untouched, nearly all are burnt
down to the ground. Upwards of 3,000 prisoners have
liberated themselves, and are committing all sorts of out-
' rages. Not a single European or Christian remains outside
i the fort. It is to be feared that few have escaped. Mr.
' Archer, the Commissioner's head clerk, is the only person
saved in his and his 'brother's family. Peeroomull, the
great banker, has been plundered and his house is in a most
ruinous state. The Dacoita have obtained their object
everywhere by attempts at incendiarism first and while the
people were engaged in quenching the fire the dacoits made
away with the booty. The way from Gopeegunge and
Jhoonsee is occupied by a class of banditti who have plun-
dered innumerable people and made some of them return
I to Mirzapore with a rag only on their backs."

JULLUNDER.
At Julhinder the mutiny broke out on the Bth, but we
kn ,w little beyond the fact that the rebels were driven out
of the camp with considerable loss, and were being pur-
sued and cut up by a squadron of cavalry, some Epean
foot, and guns, and a body of horsemen belongin urot

6 p.m. At 9 p.m. all the men in the lines some distance
from the kutchery broke out, killed their quartermaster,
' and wounded the quartermaster-sergeant so severely that
he, wherever he is, cannot live ; slightly wounded the
havildar.major, and killed the kotwal of the city. The
officer on guard at the fort at the kutchery hearing the
shots, and having a guard of picked and trusty men, as he
thought, turned them out, and desired the golandauzes to
make the guns ready for business. They refused this, told
him they would not fire or allow the guns to be fired on
the regiment, and that all the officers and ladies would be
spared ; that they wanted the guns to get at the treasure,
now some two hours and a half march a-head. I do not
learn that any other persons were murdered, though some
bungalows were set on fire. About 27 persons reached
Ghazepoore yesterday in a terrible plight,after having toiled
over 44 miles of road. I learn also that some men of the
same regiment Escorted Major '..Burronghes, the officer in
command, to Ghazeepore ,_• he is very much respected by
the good men of them. What became of the treasure is
~t present unknown. Guns were heard during the night
of the 3d in the direction which the escort had taken,. bat
the troopers had promised the Sepoys to cut them to
oprns
if they came to seize the boxes, and they were to be joined
by a reinforcement of N more from the same regiment

- JHANSI:
At Jhansi, When) was stationed the left wing of the
12th Regiment of Native Infaniy, the mutiny broke out
on the sth inst. There is or wa4 an intrenched magazine
at this place defended by two guns, and the few Europeans
in the place made good their retreat into it for the time.
We hear„ yesterday, however, of the massacre of the
whale of these unhappy victims under the usual circum-
stances of atrocity which have characterised these fiendiah
murders throughout. Our correep.ndent writes from
liamptee,..Tune 20, "News has just reached us that the
Mutineers at Jhansi have taken the fort, where all the
Europeans bad taken• refuge, and murlered all, mon,
vvotur,n, and children. Among others Skene Deputy
Conamis,ioner, and his family ; Gorden, 10th Madras Na-
tive Infantry, Assistant-Commissioner, killed ; 21 of the
sc,undr,li. before they got into the Fort, killed hi:n. Jub-
bulpore still quiet, but the 52,1 Bengal Na•iige Infantry
there say, if they hear _of any European troops coming
there they will proceed to extremities. The officers sleep
in the men's lines--poor victims I Nothing hvi been done
there. All that we know concerning the rising at -jaun-
pore is that the cavalry regiment, atAtionad there had mu-,
tinie'l and murdered their commanding officer—LLiitenant
Afar .."

The disarming of the troops at CAlcntta. Bnivacknore,
and Mooltan was simply a measure of prudence, called for
unquestionably in the present emergency, and prob►bly
hastened at the two former places bv Governmental intelli-
gence which has not been made public. We simply know
that the ex-King of Oude is implicated in the business, and
has been arrested by the Government, and all his retainers,
some 700 or 800 men, disarmed. A fakir, wbo was sen-
tenced to be hanged at Catena I for tampering with the
troops, is said to have made the revelations which have led
to this important conviction, long entertained by us, and
now we imagine well ascertained.

BAREILLY.
• Tne mutiny at Bareilly seems to have been a very tragic
affair. All the bungalows are b Irnt to the ground, and
we are in uncertainty, up to the time of going to press, of
the fate of 40 Europeans known to have been there, of
whom nearly one-half were woman and children.

SHAJEEHANPORE.
The outbreak at Shajeehanporo seems also to have been
very bloody, and characterised by circumstances of peculiar
atrocity. It is said to have occurred on the evening of
Sunday, the Bth inst., during Divine service, when the
church was surrounded, and every man, woman, and child
murdered, a detachment of the mutineers being told off to
fire the cantonment and slay the people in the bungalows.
