THE INDIAN MAILS.

SOUTHAMPTON, WEDNESDAY.
The Indus has arrived with the heavy portion of
the Indian, China, and Australian mails, Her
dates are—Alexandria, Sept. 23 ; Malta, 27 ;
Gibraltar, Oct. 1.

Her Majesty's ships Desperate and Caradoc were
at Alexandria waiting the arrival of the Siameze
Princes ; the Hibernia, Ariel, and Coquette were
at Malta ; and the Curlew wax at Gibraltar. The
Indus pawed the Ripon off Galata on the 28th ult..
and the Alhambra off Lisbon on the 3rd inst. The
Tamar left Malta for Alexandria with the Austra-
lian mails on the 21st ult.

Amongst her cargo is 379,546/. worth of Aus-
tralian gold.
She has brought home about 150 passengers,
many of whom are refugees from India. The
scene presented by their friends meeting these
passengers was one of overwhelming excitement.
Many burst into a flood of tears, and were deprived
almost of the power of utterance.
The Lady Mayoress of London, the Mayor of
Southampton, Mr. Alderman Andrews, and a num-
ber of ladies and gentlemen, went on board the
Indus to receive the refugees. any of the fugitives
were from Cawnpore, Allahabad, and other places.
in the upper provinces of Bengal. Numbers also,
have fled from Bombay, Madras, and Calcutta in.
alarm. About 40 children have come home in the.
Indus.

Amongst the passengers is Lieut. Chapman, whs.)
was shot by the mutineers at Benares. A bullet
went through his cheek and carried away part ,of
the roof of his mouth ; his speech scarcely in.tel
ligible. He is quite a youth, not above 19 years of
age. _ _

Another of the passengers is Captain Montague,
and his wife ; he belonged to the Irregulars, and
was in command of a company of Sikhs ; he is in-.
jured in the shoulder and side. He belonged to.
Gen. Havelock's army, and fought on the march
to Cawnpore. He lost his two children through
want and exposure while coming down the Gang es
from Allahabad. He knew Nana Sahib, and wan
present at a ball giv.:7: by him at Cawnpore about st
mo❑th before the A.: "ay broke out. It was Use
most magnificent bal.. 41 "Yrgiven at Cawnpore ; mil
the English were prey J, most of whom we're
afterwards mercilessly slaughtered by the scoundr el.
Captain Montague and his wife left Cawnpore be-
fore it was captured by the mutineers.
The passengers say that almost the only man that
escaped the massacre of Cawnpore has gone raving
mad. This is an officer, a Mr. Brown, who after
he got away suffered great hardships, and lay hid-
den in a nullah, without food, during three days
and nights. A Miss Goldie, a very beautiful young
lady, was taken by Na❑a Sahib to his harem, and is
believed to he alive now.

A lady named Collett came home in the Indus,
who escaped from Allahatiad ; she was one of thous
who got into the fort at that place for safety. Man y
of the ladies who have come home in the Indus have
their husbands now before Dtlhi, and scarcely ex-
pect to see them again.
When the plsiem-,fers in the Indus left Calcutta
only three thousand troops had arrived there since
the outbreak.

Unless Capt. Peel makes his way up the river very
quickly, and before the rains cease, it is scarcely
hulteved that he will get his guns up to Delhi ; but
if he cannot carry his guns beyond Allahaba. he
will, it is expected, push on for Delhi without them.
Should the water carriage fail, it would be extremely
difficult, on account of the badness of the roads, to
convey such heavy guns (one of them an 84-pounds r)
to Delhi by land.
Betwern. Cawnpore and Lucknow there we re
about 35,000 mutineers, and it is considered doubt-
ful whether Sir J. Outram will be successful in
passing up the Gogra ; the river is lined with forts,
well manned with mutineers. Outram's advance,
however, up the Gogra will, it is hoped, draw off
the mutineers from Havelock, and enable him pro-
bably to escape from the dilemma in which lie is
placed.
No fear is entertained but that the Sikhs will
prove true to the English in fighting against both
Alahommedans and Hindoos ; but unless English
troops arrive out soon in India, the Sikhs may,
after they have put down the Sepoys, turn against
the English.

Nana Sahib has resolved not to fall alive into the
handsalrkele
to be taken prisoner by the English.
tleynis believed by many persons at Calcutta that
as soon as the English troops arrive out in India,
the mutiny will suddenly cease. The Sepoys will
bury the u.oney and treasure they have obtained,
and lay down their arms. They are in the utmost
terror of the English soldiers.
Lucknow, it is feared, will fall before assistance
can come to it.

There were many English at Calcutta when the
Indus left that port who had had perilous escapes
from the Upper Provinces, and who are expected
to arrive at Southampton by the next India mail
packet. A lady is at Calcutta who has had her ears
cut of by the mutineers. One of the lady passen-
gers on board the Indus says that before she eseAped
a soldier's wife came to her one day and told her
with the utmost glee that she had killed a Sepoy ;
and this turned out to be true : the poor woman
had actually rushed upon a Sepoy, pinioned him,
and taken his life. Such is the fierceness and stern
resolution which the hideous atrocities of the Ben-
gal mutineers generated in the breast of a woman.
The Collector of Customs at Southampton, Mr.
Clarke, of the landing-waiters' department, and
Messrs. Obree and Knowler, of the tide-surveying
department, were early on board the Indus this
morning, acting under special orders from the go-
vernment to facilitate in every possible manner the
landing of the baggage of the Indian refugees. It
was ascertained that some of the passengers, brought
up gentlefolks' had lost everything in India ; that
ladies, whose husbands were officers, fighting in
India, on limited income, had made great sacrifices
to send their families out of that country. This was
communicated to the Lady Mayoress, and means
were taken to afford to many pecuniary assistance.
This was managed in the most delicate manner
