COLONEL GREATHED'S PURSUIT or
THE REBELS.
(Front the Bombay Times.)
From the date of the occupation everything /no
been quiet and orderly around. We mentioned in
our last that two strong pursuing columns had left
Delhi to push their way southward. on opposite
s des of the Junane towards Agra.
Only one column, commanded by Colbnel Great-
bed, of 1,600 infantry and 500 cavalry, three troops
of horse artillery and 18 guns, in reality could be-
spared. It crossed over the river, and took the
direction of Allyghur, a strong fort situated in the
midst of swamps and marshes, about 50 miles from
each of the two great towns first named. They
halted at GbazeeoodeEmugger on the 25th, marching
on the 26th to Sekundrabad, where a vast amount
of English property, amongst which ladies' wearing
apparel was conspicuous, being found, the place wits •
burnt.
On the 27th they overtook the enemy at Behind'
shuhur, were the Jhansi rebels, with a large mass
of other insurgents, had taken up a strong positions
which they seemed determined to defend. Thi‘
position was well selected, and their guns and men
carefully concentrated. They were soon silenced b 1
our artillery, the whole band being driven from their
entrenchments, and immediately pursued by Or
cavalry. Some of their horse formed a line to coesr
the retreat and receive the attack of Watson's Irt.t
gulars, but were soon dispersed. The 9th Lemon
made a brilliant charge, and dashing down tee
street, where they suffered considerably, drove the
enemy through and beyond the town. The rebels
appeared to select and single out the . officers for
attack. Lieut. Blair was severely wounded in the
shoulder, as were more slightly Lieuts. Sarel and
Jones, and Capt. Best, of the Irregular Caleiri.
About 100 of the enemy were left dead upon thl
field ; seven light guns, with shot, all of haxarner7
iron, were captured, with 25 boxes of powder,
nianka
large quantities of musket ammunition. 'LI
enemy are said to have lost 150. Our casualties o
all kinds were under 50, there being six eificli°
wounded.
On the morning of the 29th -the force marched
on Malaghur, which they found abandoned, an
immediately prepared to blow op the fort. On ti.;all

storm of musketry fatal to almost every one within
its reach. Thus far we are merely giving, for 'l. I
sake of perspicuity, and in a corrected and amplifie;
form, the tidings forwarded by the last mail. Th
column here remained for a couple of days, in CO
mand of four cross roads, by which the inutise
might be overtaken, in whatever direction thee;
should appear. From this the wounded officers an
mete with all the camp followers that could DT
spared, were despatched for Meerut. On the 2
the force was once more on their way. The fol-
lowing day they reached Koorga, a distance of
12
miles. The enemy had been there but two days
before, but some eight or nine of their number
were taken and shot.
On the 4th they encamped at Soomlah, and on the
sth reached Allghur. This fort is situate in the
midst of swamps and marshes, about 50 miles frog
Delhi, as from Agra. Our troops were opposed hi
.ome Mahommedan fanatics and the rabble of the
town, by witom our adherent, Goobind Singh and hi°
followers had some time since been expelled. Thal
were quickly dispersed on ell sides, the cavalry ant
ting up about 400, and two 5-pounder guns hairltr4
fallen into our hands. Bourchier's battery, with the
cavalry, European and native, took a circle of tbe
town, leaving the church on the left, and scouril'ef,
the corn-fields and gardens, pushed on by tee
Cawnpore road to the 87th milestone. Here thei
opened out for skirmishing, and then swept back
again, clearing the villages and cutting down tul
enemy hid amongst the high crops of millet ael
maize. There were supposed to have been 400

very few of whom escaped.
On the 6th the force marched on to Akurabitsls_
another stronghold of fanaticism and revolt, ere
cavalry rapidly moving in advance. Theyis-
accompanied by Mr. Geo. Campbell, as CO
sioner, and succeeded in killing two distingulete_
rebel chiefs, Mungul Singh and Mehtab Sien,g_ll;
with about a hundred of their followers. 'the
guns were found loaded, and pointed towara_B,o

of powder and grape-shot, were captured.

escaped. At Muttra, Mynpoorie, and all :he other
forts and tewns around, they were signally repelled.
Greathed's column once more took the field, and
reached Mynpoorio on the 19th, where a large body
of the enemy were said to have assembled. Oa
reaching the spot, after a forced march of 22 miles,
they found the place abandoned, the Rajah having
accompanied the fugitives, his guns and about
20,0001. worth of treasure being found in the fort.
Brigadier Grant now took the place of Colonel
Greathed, required for other service. They were
now pushing on towards Ourle, expecting to be at
Cswnpore by the 27th, and would p-obele'y reach
Lucknow, largely reinforced, by the 30th. A
Portion of the rebels round Agra had established
themselves about the 20th on the further side of
the Kharre. Nuddee, a further portion of them
being at Futtehpore-Sikree, whittler the 3d Ben-
gal Europeans proceeded from Agra on the 22d to
meet them:- The main body of the Delhi fugi-
tives, retiring south-westward, were believed to
haveturned off from the Trunk-road about. Canouge,
and to have crossed over into Oude. A portion of
them had previously proceeded towards Bareilly,
and another had joined the Raees at Furruckabad.
Brigadier Showers's column, which left just after
that of Col. Greathed,2proceedeil to Koetub, and
after sweeping the country round for a week, re-
turned to Delhi on the 29th September. It started
afresh on the 2d of October and proceeded to Re-
waree, which it found deserted. The chief, Rab
Toolarani, not withstanding his professions of friend-
ship, had evacuated the fort, which was found
armed with 12 guns and mortars, all in position
on the ramparts, ready loaded. In the foundry
were two new brass pieces, just turned out. These,
together with a quantity of military stores and
ammunition, fell into our hands. The force on the
sth October was at Goorgaon. On the 12th they
reachediJanffoo Sata, where the horsemen of the
Nawab of Jhujjur, who had crossed the river, were
disarmed without resistance. The chief himself,
like his neighb urs, now anxious to show their
loyalty to the British government, were apprehend-
ing and making over to us all parties within their
reach concerned in the rebellion. General Wilson,
'hose health had sunk under his exertions, on the
28th September resigned the command of the Delhi
garrison into the hands of Gen. Penny, and alongwith Colonel Beecher, proceeded to the hills for
change of air. Two other sons of the King of
Delhi were on the 12th condemned by a military
commission to be shot the following day. 'The
Xing himself is to be arraigned, and it is to be
hoped that sufficient evidence of his crimes will be
found for his conviction. The principal traitors
amongst the Mohammedan gentry of Delhi were
being arrested, and would be brought to trial when
sufficient evidence against them was obtained.

GENERAL HAVELOCK AT LUCKNOW.
Considering the indistinctness with which, owing
to the difficulty of communication, the or erations for
the relief of Lucknow have been reported, we have
collected and here bring together the fragmentary
correspondence of the Indian journals bearing upon
the subject, although the leading facts are well
summarised elsewhere.
Mr. Sharer, whose information is frequently
quoted in letters from Cawnpore, writes on the 2d
October—" The great fight at Lucknow was on the
25tb, ''when the sick and wounded were left at
Alumbagh, and the main body marched on the
town, keeping to the right as much as they could,
but [not crossing the Gomtee, as had been errone-
ously supposed.
The following additional particulars regarding the
relief of Lucknow have been received in a letter
from Lucknow, dated 26th Sept,
" On the 25th, General Havelock's force, having
left the sick and wounded with a detachment at
Alumbagh, forced their way into the city under
serious opposition. After crossing the Cearbagh
bridge the troops skirted the city, to avoid the
enemy's defensive works, prepared through the
entire length of the main street, leading directly to
the residency, Still much opposition had to be
encountered, till we reached the residency in the
evening. Our loss was severe, estimated at from
400 to 500 killed and wounded. On the 26th the
troops were occupied in taking the batteries bear-
ing on the garrison, which were held till assaulted,
and continued till then to fire on the residency,
after our troops had, relieved the garrison the night
before. Ma y thousands of the enemy had de-
serted the city. The late King's sons had fled to
Fyzabad."
CAWNPORE, Oct. 3.
Stores under a convoy of 300 men are being de-
'Patched to Luckuow. The road between Luck now
and Cawnpore still infested by plunderers, who in-
terrupt our communications.
October 8, Sherer mentions the receipt of
letters from Lucknow dated 6th instant. General
Otr ram tow holds important positions in the city
itself. The strong post at Alumbagh has been
victualled and reinforced from Cawnpore.
October 10.—A letter.of the sth inst. states that
sa communication had been received from Lucknow,
intimating that in two or three days a portion of
the troops would return to Cawnpore with the
women and children. The Baillie Guard was greatly
strengthened, the enemy's works in the vicinity
destroyed, and all houses in the neighbourhood
"zed to- the ground. —Delhi Gazette, Oct. 14.
October 10.—All is quiet about this station,
though communication with Lucknow is still inter-
rupted by the enemy's horse on the road. Rein-
forcements are now beginning rapidly to arrive. Mr.
therer mentions that two or three bodies of our
men are between Allahabad and Cawnpore, on their
way Letra, Oct. 18.
October 12.—Besides the detachments before
mentionedir as moving upwards from Allahabad, her
Majesty's 93d was expected at Allahabad on the
21st. The detachment at Alumbagh is described
as well off in. all respects. They had returned to
Cawnpore 150 elephants for which they had not
sufficient fodder, under a guard of about 100 men ;
sO the obstructions on the road cannot be of any
4rength.—/Irofussiite, Oct. 20.
We learn from a letter from the camp at Alum-
bagh, dated Oct. 10, that a battle was fought at
Lucknow on the 24th September, by theforce under
General Havelock, and that the army then rested,
and on the following day marched on Lucknow
--(three miles distant). A garrison of 200 men, with
4 guns, was left behind to take care of the wounded,
.70 in number,. and to guard the whole of the bag-
gage of the force, about 900 cattle, 200 elephants,
and camels, drc , in proportion. The camp fol-
lowers, amounting to between 3,000 and 4,000
souls, remained in the camp, and these unfortunate
wretcheih who are in a state of starvation, are em-
ployed in the construction of the defences under
the superintendence of Lieut. Judge, engineer in
charge. Alumbagh signifies " the garden of the
world." The place is about 500 yards square, with
a house in the centre, and an ornamental tower in
each corner large enough to contain 20 men in each
tower. The outer wall is about ten feet high. The
garrison was-unable to communicate with the army
under Gen. Ontram.— Englishman, Oct. 20.
The correspondent of the Llurkaru, at Cawnpore,
Writes as follows :
" Entrenched Camp, Cawnpore, Oct. 16.
"This prolonged silence bodes no good, I fear, for our
brave fellows at Lucknow. Day after day glides away,
and still no news of them. The truth must out, and it
is this : that our force in Lucknow has been—whether
Wi8.17 or not I-cannot pronounce—allowed to be sepa-
rated, and each division is so hemmed in that, from the
overwhelming number of the enemy, they cannot rejoin
,each other. After the fight of the 25te ult. it appears
that our force held three distinct positions—viz , the
Sallee Guard, the Residency, and Alum Reel. Since
that time I have learnt that, after a severe fight, that
Pottion at the Residency were enabled to form a junction
with those at the Bailee Guard. Still, however, they are
separated from those lying in the Alum Bagh, and we
'lave no communication with either portion of the force.
41. few days ago 100 men of different regiments came
mi.escorting baggage, camels, elephants, &c., bringing
with them a letter from a friend of mine now lying in
'Llsick' /Ugh. I extract the following from it. " The
• Wounded, commissariat stores, officers' servants,
and baggage, are all left in this place—a large garden.
The force went on to Lucknow, which is three miles
from this, on the 25th ult., to relieve the unfortunates,
and which they succeeded in doing on the 26th, after
hard fighting and severe loss. Poor General Neill fel,
also Brigadier Cooper of the Artillery. They took two
days' rations with them, and we expeceed them to rejoin
128 again in two or three days ; but here is the 16th day,
and no signs of them yet. Captains Macbean and Free-
ling went with the force, and Gardener with them. The
efEcers took nothing with them but the clothes they
stood in. All their servants are here.
"This and the bare fact that we have no means of
communication with Lucknow, and are in complete igno-
rance 'of what is daily enacted there, will enable your
readers to judge for themselves in what position our
lirmY'at Lucknow stands. There can, I think, be little
doubt that they are in great straits, and it is the im-
_ perative duty of the Government to push !net. up here
• kuCraPidly as possible, artillerymen particularly. Cipt.
• 17!roby, our able and indefat gable staff officer here,
I bear, posted 60 bullocks at every station
between Ulla and Allahabad ; and this will enable the
Men to move up easily and rapidly. If Mr. Allen, too,
• the energetic manager of the N. W. Dak Company,
could be induced to sxtend his operations thus fir, it
would aid us materially. His agent here is just despatch-
ing several of the Dak carriages he has recovered to
Ailiebahad. The road is perfectly safe, and Ido not
think that much difficulty would be r xperienced in ob-
• !litting.cattle. If Mr. Allen should decide on making
the attempt, his success is certain. Outrun has written
"t 0 Ool.,Greatheff, whose column gained a vict_ry over
the rebels, the other day at Allyghur, to haFt,n to hi-
relief,, it is said that Greatbed is moving towards
1:3:13r,a, and so, for some days, no relief can be looked for
from that quarter. It is fr,,rn the East then—from
. Benares, and Calcutta, that succour must
148 ; and if it does not come speedily such a tragedy
rila7 Occur at Lucknow as would more than compensate
