jesty's 84th Regiment, 70 ladies, 120 women
and children of her Majesty's 32d Regiment,
and the whole European and Christian population,
including civilians, merchants, shopkeepers, engi-
neers, pensioners, and their families, about 400
in number, were butchered in the most
heartless manner, and with every circumstance
of aggravation, that made even death
itself a blessing anxiously desired by our
unfortunate countrywomen. The court-yard was
swimming in blond. The ►omen and children
had been stripped naked, beheaded, and thrown
down a well. The children being flung alive
over their murdered parents, only four are said
to have escaped. On the 29th of July 15 guns
were captured by HAVELOCK, en route to Luck-
now, as we have already stated, and on the 30th
other successes were achieved at Buper- Gunge. The
rebels were probably the hesiegers,of Lucknow, as
NANA SAE& a fugitive troops had, after the destruc-
, ion of the fort at Bithoor, dispersed, after destroy-

ng their arms, and, after the suicide of their
Leader, to their respective homes. There could

be but little doubt that the relief of Lucknow
would be accomplished, as had been anticipated,
on the 31st July, and that HATELOOK would then
be at liberty to march on Delhi or Agra as seemed
most advisable.

The rumours respecting the capture of Agra
by the rebels do not appear to rest on any
satisfactory foundation. We may therefore hope
that this awful catastrophe has not taken place,
and that the 5,000 fugitives have not been sub-
jected to the tender mercies of the bloodthirsty
insurgents. Considerable anxiety must neces-
sarily be felt as to their fate. But we cannot see
whence the force could come that would be
sufficient to defeat 500 British troops holding
a strongly fortified position. The rebels under
NANA SAHIB had sought refuge in flight. The
mutineers from Neemuch, discouraged by the
warm reception they received, had joined
the rebels at Delhi, and the other roving
bands were tolerably well accounted for. We
shall therefore hope for the best, and discredit
the appalling report until bettor evidence is forth-
coming to sustain it.
The news from Delhi and other quarters is in
accordance with that contained in the telegrams,
which we have already noticed.
The pressure on our space prevents us from
offering further comments. We may, however,
refer to the large extracts we have given,
as well as to the summary from the
Bombay nines, which will give full information.
It is to be hoped that the fate of Delhi will soon
be accomplished, when the troops now before it
are reinforced by those under HAVELOCK, VAN
CORTLANDT, and NICHOLSON, and the brave and
energetic Sir Cormr is on the spot to direct the
whole against the devoted city, and to inflict con-
dign punishment on the treacherous wretches who
were " unfaithful to their salt," and turntd
against those by whom they were fed and kindly
reated.

in no way connected with the Government, ar e
willing and eager to give an active support to its
authority at the present time, by sharing service
in the field with the troops of the Queen and of the
East India Company.

We have remarked that mutiny in no longer
confined to the Bengal army. The infection has

reached our own Presidency—our own troops.
In consequence of the moat scrupulous withhold-
ing of intelligence on the part of Government,
the community is kept in a constant state of
painful suspense, and of liability to alarm and
panic. There is no good reason for this scrupul-
ous secresy, as the Queen's and Company's troops,
the civilians and the Europeans unconnected with
Government, and the loyal portion of the native
community, are really strong enough to put down
any attempt at insurrection. It would, therefore,
tend greatly to the peace and quiet of the timid if
Government would allow the press to receive and
publish the intelligence from different parts of the
Presidency. We know that mutiny has broken
out in the 27th Bombay Native Infantry, stationed
at Kolapore. The only particulars that have
reached us regarding it are, that a portion of the
regiment mutinied on the Buckree Eed—the Ist
inst. When -the officers were assembl4iin the
billiard-room after mess, a Jamadar rusWiss, and
gave them warning that the men were coming to
fire on them. They immediately repaired to the
place of rendezvous previously appointed ; but three
young officers, ignorant of the place or bewildered
in the darkness, went astray, and were taken and
murdered by the mutineers. The mother of the
Jemadar, an old woman, went to the house of Major
Rolland, the commanding officer of the regiment,
at the same time that the Jemadar went to the
mess-room, to warn the ladies of their danger, and
afford them an opportunity of making their escape.
No sooner had the ladies effected their escape than
the house was surrounded by the mutineers.
Disappointed of their prey, they revenged them-
selves on the faithful old woman—her fidelity cost
her her life. A number of the rebels were seized ;
the rest made their way to other parts of the country.
They have.since:returned, and there has been, ob-
stinate fighting there ; but we have not learnt the
result. Belgaum,lDharwar, Rutnagherry, Sattara.,
and other places were thus thrown into great ex-
citement. Our reports from these places, are, how-
ever, so conflicting that we do not feel justified in
attempting any statement regarding them. The
eollector of Sattara, Mr. Rose, a man in every
stespect equal to the occasion, has thought it
advisable to send the ex-Ranees and the adopted
son of the late deposed Rajah to Bombay, and
they are now in confinement on Butcher's Island,
a depot of the Indian navy.—A plot was dis-
covered at Poona, concerted between the Mohlvies
of Poona and Belgaum, for the massacre of
the Europeans and Christians of those stations.
Letters were intercepted at the Poona post-office,
which contained fulldetaile of the'conspiracy, and
which enabled the authorities, tim dy advised, to
shun the coming evil. The Moulvie of Poona, with
several accomplices from that station, are now pri-
soners on board the Hon. Company's frigate Ac-
bar, awaiting their trial at the next criminal vs-
, sions, for high treason. Arrests have also been
made at Belgaum and Ainnecinuggur of parties im-
plicated in this Mussultnan conspiracy. Matters
had proceeded so far in Poona, that arrangements
had been made, and materials prepared for blowing
up the arsenal. The community of that station
have suffered great anxiety for several days. The
authorities have disarmed the natives of the can-
tonment bazaar ; but left those of the city, the
most to be suspected, in possession of their arms.
From the principal out-stations, the women and
children are being sent to Poona and Bombay under
military escort. Our own city is perfectly quiet, and
our citizens free from any serious apprehensions of
evil. There was considerable alarm, occasioned by
reports of the worst kind, at the time of the Buckree
Eed ; but those whO experienced it have been fully
re-assured. The community have the most entire
confidence in the wisdom, vigilance, and firmness
of the Right Hon. the Governor, -who is the com-
mandant of the garrison, and who has left nothing
undone in the measures which ho has adopted t
prevent an outbreak, or to crush it the instant it
should be attempted. His lordship is fully alive to
his serious responsibilities at the present crisis. Ho
has made every possible preparation for the accom-
modation and comfort of the additional troops ex-
pected from England, and has retained in Bomltay
her Majesty's 331 Foot, the Dake of Wellingtoa's
Regiment, just arrived from the Mauritius.
India has received a blow, from the effects of
which she will take long to recover—a check to her
career of improvement and progress which will re-
tard her for many years to come. A large district
of the country has been, as it were, sowed. with
salt ; public buildings and property of every
kind have been destroyed; public treasuries have
been spoliated, and no sinews of national im-
provement, as Ivell as of war, have been cut ; the
minds of many have been unsettled, and affected
with disloyalty ; a vast multitude of precious lives
have been sacrificed, and amongst these the lives of
the greatest and wisest men in the land.
COMMERCIAL. —Our money market has, du- ing
the past fortnight, Le3orne somewhat ea,-ier, and
the banks have reduced their rates of interest 2 per
cent. all round. Government securities hive not
improved in value, not withstanding the recent
notification to receive one-half Four per C:n.t.
paper and one-half cash, into the Five per Ceut.
loan. The business transacted in the export mar-
ket has been to a pretty' moderate extent ; and
freights continue firm.

A proclamation, dated the 10th of July, has ly2en
issued by the Government of India, offering rewards
for the apprehension of mutineers and deserter,, or
for giving information which will lead to their
seizure.

Khan was quietly disarmed on the 14th inst.
July 18.—There are no further tidings from the
camp before Delhi.
Private letters confirm the accounts of the heavy
loss inflicted on the rebels on the 14th. From too
great eagerness in the pursuit our gallant soldiers
got under grape and even musketry range of the
walls of the city, and our loss was, consequently,
greater than it might otherwise have been-171
killed and wounded.
July 20.—The cable across the Sutlej has got
out of order,and there has been no telegraphic com-
munication with Umballa for the last 36 hours.
July 21.—The telegraphic communication with
Umballa is again open, and by a short message re-
ceived yesterday there appears to have been another
affair with the mutineers at Delhi on the 18th
instant." Particulars are not given further than
that our loss was small, and the enemy as usual
driven back. They made a show of turning out on
the 18th, but retired again very shortly within the
city walls.
Our troops before Delhi have now been engaged
in no less than 22 conflicts with the mutineers,
who have poured in from all quarters, to aid the
rebel cause.
The mutineers have invariably been discomfited
and forced to may. As soldiers they have proved
themselves despicable, and, whatever their num-
bars, they will only venture to fight from under

and. Menzies, Grenadier Company, and F. Stewart,
Light Company, all on the 11th July.
The following is an extract of a letter from Nag-
pore, dated 27th July
"The Kamptee Field Force arrived at Seonee
on the 22d, and halted there until until the 26the
to enable the D Company of Artillery to join
them. They were then to push on to Jubbulpore,
restore order there, and then (Major Erskine ac-
companying them) to proceed to Saugor and Jhan-
si. All issiniet at Jubbulpore as regards the Ben-
gal corps,there, who are supposed to be staunch to
the back-bone, to use the favourite Bengal phrase.
Some of the Zemindars about Jubbulpore are giv-
iug trouble, and will be the first to receive the re-
ward of their misdeeds."
An officer writes from Allahabad as follows on
the 29th of July :—" Havelock's force left Ailaha-
bad „on the evening of the 7th, the rain pouring
down in torrents ; and after it ceased raining the
heat of the sun became so intense that several of
the force were smitten down by sun stroke. Of the
78th three died from this cause, viz., Quarter-
master Sergeant Tulloch and Privates Gibbs and
Menzies, of the Grenadiers. When the brigade
were about 50 or 60 miles from this they found
the enemy drawn up in great numbers, and occu-
pying a strong position to oppose the further pro-
gress of our little force. Before the action com-
menced, General Havelock addressed the 78th
thus—' Highlanders, when we were going to
Mohemreh, I promised you a field-day. I could
not give it you then, as the Persians ran away ;
but, Highlanders, we will have it to-day, and let
them see what you are made of.' At it then they
went, and our men did show them what they were
made of, for after several hours' hard fighting the,
rebels fled, and our fellows charged and captured
11 guns at the point of the bayonet, together with
some ammunition and treasure. After -this
affair, the brigade recommenced their march, and
coming across the scoundrels a second time, gave
them battle, dispersed them, and captured four
more guns. When within six miles of Cawnpore,
they came across the enemy a third time, drawn
up for battle, and again fought them, but this Was,
the hardest fight of any they bad hitherto engage°.
in. The mutineers, however, fled, after a fierce
encounter, leaving us in possession of the field, and
14 guns ; we cut the rebels up fearfully, and might
have done still greater execution, if we had any
cavalry that could be relied upon. After the action
was over, General Havelock disarmed and 63'
mounted the native cavalry, and made coolies of
them for refusing to charge when ordered. It is
likely they will be hung. General Havelock gave
our men great praise for their bravery that day. ,
° Upon the Highlanders and our old friends and
fellow-campaigners, the 64th, fell the brunt of the
battle, but the 64th suffered most. Eierything it
quiet in this place, but we are all on the alert and
prepared for an attack, as there is every reason I°
apprehend one from the inhabitants, who do not
seem to relish the summary manner in which vrie,
hang numbers daily. Our regiment is scattered sil
over the province.'
The following is taken from a very interesting .
letter dated Cawnpore, the 18th of July, from the '
pen of an officer of the gallant Ist Madras Fusiliers'
It gives a full account of the proceedings of'llle-
regiment during an eventful period :
,c As we are to have a quiet day to-day I will try
and write a somewhat longer letter than usual.

LAHORE, JULY 29.
There is no news from Delhi, where all remained
quiet up to the evening of the 27th. Much rain
had fallen.
The total number of Sealkote mutineers and camp
followers, sent in by the Jusreuta authorities (of his
Highness Maharajah Goolab Sing) amount to 572.
An emeute took place in the jail at Googaira, on
the night of the 26th instant. The prisoners rose
en masse and overpowered the sentries inside the
jail. The guard outside, however, killed and
wounded about 50 of them, most of the latter mor-
tally. Eighteen prisoners managed to effect their
escape, owing to the darkness of the night.

GENERAL HAVELOCK'S VICTORY.—
SUICIDE OP NANA SAHIB.
The following message from General Havelock to
the Commander-in-Chief in Bengal, dated 20th
July, was supplied by Government to the Calcutta
press, and appears in the papers of the 23d July :
" General Havelock has retaken Cawnpore, de-
feating Nana Sahib in person, and taking two siege
guns. The news previously received of the massa-
cre of the garrison is too true, and the twenty-five
ladies whom Nana Sahib retained as hostages, on
allowing the remainder to go into the boats, were
murdered by him a fevi days previous to General
Havelock's arrival, and their bodies thrown.down
the well of the assembly rooms, from whence, at
the time of the general's letter being despatched,
they were being taken up and buried.
"Nana Sahib's followers appear to be deserting,
him. He has fled from Bithoor, which was occu-
pied yesterday without resistance. Thirteen guns
were found in the place. His palace is in flames,
General Neill has joined me with a strong rein-
forcement of British soldiers. Lucknow quite safe
for the present."
In the papers of the 24th July, the following
message from General Havelock to the Commander-
in-Chief, dated 21st idem, ins published :
CAMP CAWNPORE.-
"I am free to cross the Gengei. Nana Sahib's
force at Bithoor is entirely dispersed. We have
brought from the place 10 guns and a number of
animals, set fire to his palace, and blown up his
powder magazine. A portion of my troops and
five guns are already in position at the head of the
road to Lucknow. The whole army is full of hope
that we shall soon be united"m the left bank."
CAMP CAWNPORE.
" We had a little sharp work coming up to this
place ; the first at Futtehpor,?, where we had nine
12-pounder guns opposed to us, as well as two 24-
pounder 'ems, but by the will of Divine Providence
we took the whole from the insurgents without a
single scratch among the Europeans ; but as for the
N. I. Cavalry I cannot speak well. They had seven of
their men cut up, velizerh was their own fault, as
they did not charge although the order was given
three times, and when they did charge among the
enemy they fired their carbines over their lards.
They are all now disbanded, so we have no more
trouble with fellows of this kind.
" The second encounter we had was 20 m;lss on
this side of Futtehpore, where wo had 17 lined and
wounded, but the enemy lost four times as
many. There:we took four guns, and the same
evening we had another brush with them at Pan-
doo Nuddy,' where we took three 14-pounder guns
without any loss of life amengst, us, but only
five or six wounded. The fourth and last fight
we had was about two miles out of Cawnpore,
where we took seven large 24-pounder guns and
howitzers. We had very severe firing from the
fort of the enemy from two p.m. till seven p.m.,
when we had in killed and wounded about 150
Europeans and Sikhs. The loss of the enemy we
cannot tell, but we afterwards came across a house
where 300 sowers and sepoys lay wounded, and we
saw a tank full of dead bodies. We had to encoun-
ter about 12,000 of the enemy with only 2,000 Eu-
ropeans and Sikhs • the latter behaved most gal-
lantly, and lost ten killed and wounded. The same
evening of this affair we encamped outside of Cawn-
pore, and next morning we entered the town
straight to where we heard that 175 ladies and chil-
were confined, but on our arrival there, awful,
awful to behold, there was a'l their clothes, Are.,
strewn about the blood-sta'ned ground. The
place was a paved court-yard, and there were two
inches of blood upon the pavement; and from the
report we got •from- the residents of the place it
appears that after we had beaten the enemy the
evening previous, the sepoys and sowers entered the
place where the poor victims were, and killed all
the ladies, and threw the children alive, as w,-11 as
the dead bodies, into a we',l in the cowl *rind. I saw
it, and it was an awful sight. It appears from the
bodies we saw that the women were stripped of
their clothes berare they were murder ed. We have
picked up three iwomen who had fled and were
prAected by a native. We lost poor S. Carr,
he was shot dead from his horse in a charge
we had to make among 300 to 50) infantry.
After he fell, poor fellow, he was hacked about the
head to such an extent that we could hardly re-oe
Dime him. The moul vie of Allahabad was killed at Fu•-
tepore by our shot. Yeeterday we went with a small
force into Bithoor, where the Nana Saheb was,
and walked into his palace without firing a shot.
We fired the whole of the place, and burnt the whole
of his houses and property and took 15 guns from
there. The Nana has drowned himself, with his
family. • He had an intention of going to Lucknow,
but when he got as far as the river, the cavalry and
infantry deserted him. They are all gone oft, aft
