LONDON, FRIDAY, DEC. 25, 1857.

Another telegram has been received at the
India House in reference to the recent proceedings
before Lucknow. It corrects the dates, and gives
some additional particulars respecting the conflict.
It was on the 12th November that Sir Court
arrived at A.lumbagh, and on the 13th the fighting
commenced, two guns were captured, and the
fort of Jellabad destroyed. On the 15th Sir COLIN
occupied Delkosah and Martiniere. These were im-
portant points, which the rebels attempted to regain
but they were repulsed after a sharp struggle.
On the 16th he made further progress, crossed the
canal, took Seeunderbagh, and carried Samuch
after a severely-contested fight. Oa the 17th
communications were opened with the barracks.
The mess-house was carried by assault at 3 r.ar.
The troops occupied the barracks, awl CAMPBELL
met OUTRAM and HAVELOCK. It must have been
a glorious spectacle to behold the interview be-
twee❑ these heroes, after the faithful performance
of their arduous duties.

The list of killed and wounded is scarcely so
great as might have been anticipated. We have,
however, only the account during two days, the
16th and 17th, and we fear that there will be a
heavier drawback to our triumph. It appears
that four officers have been killed, and that Sir
Com; himself, who had previously enjoyed an
almost miraculous immunity from steel and lead,
was wounded, but only slightly. The 93d
must have had sharp work. Captain DALZELL,
was killed, and many of its officers wounded.
Its exploits in the Crimea, where it formed " the
thin red line," which could not be broken, have
already been th• themes of story, both at home
and abroad, and now there will be additional
laurels for the brows of the gallant Highlanders.
The men who astonished the Russians at Balla-
clava must have appeared as very Rustarus to the
Sepoys and their camp followers.

A demonstration had been made by the
Gwalior rebels against Cawnpore. General
WINDHAM, the hero of the Roden, was, however,
prepared for them, and, when they retired on
Calpee, had taken the initiative by marching to
attack them. Their position is by no means
enviable under the circumstances.
a At Delhi 24 members of the Royal Family
have been executed under the sentence of a mili-
tary commission or court-martial, as it might
more ptopetly.,_
be termed. It is only to he re-
gretted thati: tlie chief caitiff—the Brummagem
Mogul—did n(4Briethe fate of his relatives.
The incomprehensible leniency hitherto exhibited
to the principal delinqueet
we fear be ver
injurious to British interests in, inaii4 , y
Col. GERARD, another of our irittun
has perished at the hour of triumph. Re niet; tube,
Joudpore rebels on the 25th Nov., near xarnocd,
and defeated them with great slaughter and loss
of all their guns, but his own valuable life was
sacrificed in the fearful discharge of his arduous
duty. • It was a noble end, and his grateful
countfy will strive to alleviate the sorrows of his
surviving relatives.

In the neighbourhood of Agra Colonel RIDDELL
and Major OLD had been completely successful,
having cleared the tillgour districts, and dispersed
a body of the Rohilcund mutineers. Brigadier
