tions gracefully uniting the pock and the musician,
will add a fresh leaf to his already thickly-twined

favourite in the above list. There is something
quaint and expressive about it, teminding us of the
old English school of ditty, when "The Vicar of
Bray," " The Miller of Tetbury," and " Barbara
Allen," held honourable place in the baron's hall
and peasant's cot. We are so ple Ise" with these
specimens that we hope Charles Mackay will try

THE EAST.

-- -----
We have received Constantinople lett-ra and
journals to the 6h. Ou the previous day a coun-
cil of ministers had been held, to deliberate on the
choice of a new caimacan of Moldavia, but no de-
cision had been then come to. The diplomatic
body had been -consulted on the subject, and the
result had been made known by telegraph. The
news of the conclu?don of the treaty_ of peace
tweeu England and Persia had reached the Turkish
capital, but had not produced much sensation, as
the result was anticipa' ed.
'A letter from Alexandria of the 7th says
" The Viceroy has returned to Cairo from his visit
to the Soudan. In the course of it, he diminished
the taxes even below what the populations had
offered to pay, released 2,000 slaves, ordered about
100,000 feddars of land, which, from being exces-
sively taxed, had been left uncultivated ; to be dis-
tributed amongst the people, put an end to a host
of abuses, and nominated Orakel Bey, who is a
Christian, to the government- of the Senur. All
these measures have won him the gratitude of the
populations. The project of cutting through the
Isthmus of Suez continues to attract the Viceroy's
attention. The Russian consul-general, in a visit
to his Highness, complimented him on the support
he gives to that project."

PRUSSIA.
BIRLIN, March 17. Yesterday information
reached here by telegraph from Copenhagen, to the
effect that the final treaty for the redemption of the
Sound Dues had been concluded, and Baron von
Manteuffel took occasion, in the course of the sit-
ting of the Rouse of Deputies, the same morning,
to communicate the circumstance to the members
assembled. The Minister President made his an-
nouncement in the following worth
"Gentlemen,—lt is an agreeable duty which I fulfil
in informing the house that in the course of the night
before last a treaty for the redemption of the Sound Dues
was concluded and signed at Copenhagen. (" Bravo 1"
from all sides of the house.) As soon as it is possible I
shall lay before the house the papers connected with this
treaty, and I trust that the house will derive from them
the conviction that his Majesty's Government has been
at some pains to further the interests of the country as
far as it lay in its power."

SPAIN.
MADRID, March 14.—Gen. Prim is to undergo
at Toledo the punishment to which he has been
condemned.
The report of the removal of Gen. Concha. from
the chief command in Cuba is not confirmed, and
may be presumed to have had no foundation.
We hear nothing further of a pardon for Gene-
ral Prim. The get,eral opinion seems to be that to
giant it would be to offer a slight and almost an
affront to Narvaez, such as would indicate that his
influence was all but extinct, and scarcely leave
him any option but that of withdrawing from the
Ministry.

SUICIDE OF CAPTAIN BELL.

On Tuezday evening Mr. Wm. Baker held an
inquest at the London Hospital respecting the
death of Captain John Bell, who was found dead
with a pistol shot wound in his head on Friday
night last.
Emma Spencer, of No. 5, Victoria-place, Mile-
end-road, deposed that the deceased was the
captain of a merchant vessel named the Patriot
Queen. He had been lodging with witness since
June. He wag a single man, and his friends were
living at Dumfries. Deceased had latterly been
in a very desponding way, and had taken to drink-
ing spirits to excess. Deceased left home last
Friday evening about seven o'clock. He was then
very low and dejected. Witness heard of deceased's
death, but bow it occurred she could not say. He
was subject to attacks of brain fever, and 12 months
since he was out of his mind.

Thomas Gillies, of 27, Wellesley-street, Stepney,
slated that on the night in question he was passing
from Turner-street, Whitechapel, towards the back
of the London Hospital, when he saw the flash and
heard the report of a pistol. He hastened to a
spot facing the corner of St. Philip's Church rail-
ings, when he saw the deceased lying ox his back
with his arms extended. There was a double-
barrelled pistol near his left shoulder, and there
was a large wound near his left ear, from which
blood was oozing copiously. A young man came
up directly afterwards and picked up the pistol,
which was a very formidable weapon, being double-
barrelled, with a bayoziet at the eud. The deceased
had, to all appearance, committed the act himself,
and must have died instantaneously: .
Other evidence having been adduced,
The jury returned a verdict of temporary in-
sanity.

Tyrß. HOWARD, burgeon-Dentist, 52, Fleet-
street, has introduced an entirely new description of ARTI-
FICIAL TEETH , fixed without springs, wires, or ligatures. They so
perfectly resemble the natural teeth as not to be disiMvished from
the original by the closest observer; they will never change colour or
decay, and will be found very superior to any teeth ever before used.
This method does not require the extraction of roots, or any painful
operation, and will support and preserve teeth that are loose, and is
guaranteed to restore articulation and mastication ; and that Mr.

Howard's improvement may be within the reach of the snot econo-
mical, he has fixed the charges at the lowest scale possible. De-
cayed teeth stopped and rendered sound and useful in mastica-
tion.-52, Fleet-street. At home from ten till five.

The Independance Beige still hankers after news
of a mutiny in Bombay, an affects to sea its germ
iu the suppressed disturbances at Poona and Sat-
tara. It desires its readers to "wait for further
news" before they adopt the statements of the
English Press as to the tranquillity. of Western
and Central India. It farther says that " a
fact (?) not mentioned in the official communica-
tion, and which will be very sad if confirmed, is
already spoken of. Gen. Sir Colin Campbell, who
was sent in such haste to India to take the com-
mand-in-chief, and who was expected to march on
Delhi with the first European reinforcements that
it was possible to collect, had fallen sick on his arri-
val at Calcutta. Of all the news omitted by the
official telegraph this is the worst. We must wait
for its confirmation." [Such are the little kind-
nesses of our Belgian friends in our Eastern diffi-
culty.]

on romantic heights ou the northern or left bank
of the Ganges.

Deriving its name from its ancient appellation
Varanisi, from " Var," best. and "Anal,'' water,
it tAkes the first place in India for sanctity amonjit
the hundred of millions of Hindoos, whos, and
elect make it a sacred point to have bathed once in
their lives at least, from the splendid gha,uts of
Benares, in the all-hallowing and purifying stream
of "Mother G-unga."

To the traveller coming from the south, the city
rises from the ghauts or sloping approachei so as
to form a vast amphitheatre, presenting a noble
view to the spectator from the opposite side, which
is much lower than the northern bank, the river
being about 600 yards wide, but now, during the
rains, extending to the breadth of half a mile. T. .o
length of the city along the banks of the river is
about three miles ; its depth not more than a mile.
The population consists of about 200,000, most c.f
them Hindoos, awl the Brahmins alone are esti-
mated as form'ng one-tenth of that number.
They live on the superstitions and alms of the
myriads who yearly flock to the holy city on pil-
grimage, and may be daily seen performing their
ablutions at the foot of the beautiful ghauts, or
broad flight of steps of fine freestone' which line
the embankment of the river to the whole extent of
the city.

Above the numerous and crowded houses, which
are mostly built of stone, are seen the pinnacles of
innumerable small Hindoo pagodas, but above all
rises the beautiful mosque of Aurungzebe, built by,
him from the materials of the derneliAied Hindoo
temple Bind Madhu, to signalise the triumph of
Islamism over Brahminism.
A curious feature and obstruction of the narrow
and dirty streets is formed by the many fat and
lazy bulls who roam uncontrolled and unmolested
in the streets, procuring abundance of gratuitous
food from the stalls of dealers in grain and vege-
tables ; while troops of monkeys, equally sacred,
scamper over the houses, and make fearful razzias
from the shops of the confectioners and fruiterers.
These doings, and the many horrible and dis-
torted religious ascetic., who squat by the pagodas,
make Benares a sight to the new comer from Eng-
land, which baffles his comprehension, while it
exceeds all be has ever conceived in his wildest fits

LONDON, THURSDAY, !SEPT. 17, 1857.

Another telegram has come to hand, which
was received at the Foreign Office (through the
Admiralty), at 8.25 a.m. on this day. It states
that " Lord EL*IN reached Calcutta on the Bth of
August, in her Majesty's ship Shannon, accom-
panied by her Majesty's ship Pearl. These ves-
sels had 300 extra Marines and 300 soldiers on
board.

After the mutiny at Dinapore, a small force,
consisting of 160 men of her Majesty's 10th
Regiment, and about the same number of the
37th, was despatched to relieve some eight
Europeans, besieged by the mutineers at Arrah.
Thr, expedition was not successful, and our loss
'' cry heavy.
General LLOYD has been removed from his
command, and General OUTRAN' invested with the
command of the Dinapore and Cawnpore
divi-
sior,s.

The 63d Regiment of Native Infantry was
disarmed at Behrampore, on the Ist of August.
The 11th Irregular Cavalry and tho Governor-
Gene7al's Body Guard hive also been disarmed."
It will be borne in mind by our readers that
Vee Pekin, which brought the intelligence, al-
ready inserted in The Sun, had arrived at Suez
on the 4th inst tint, and that it contained the
iamlllY,y dates to the ,15Lh August. The mail
frori Calcutta was however wanting, and that has
kat arrived by the Bentinck. It does not how-
ever, add much to the information already
received from the scene of action. We cannot
conceive why Lord ELGIN should have returned
from China to Calcutta, at which place he ar-
rived on the Bth of August, in 11.M.5. Shanr.on,
accotripanied by H. M.S. Pearl, bringing 300 or 400
exf Cik marine,and 300 soldiers. It would seem i
Its if his mission had been fruitless, and that he
was refused a reception by the Chinese Eooperer.
It is strange that nc,thing should have been said
ea this very interesting and important topic.
The parties, however, entrusted with the duty of
condensing information at Suez, exhibit a singular
reticence, as they invariably pass over without
ti..e slightest notice, matters on which public
anxiety is greatly excited. We must, of course,
wait for further intelligence before we can speak
with any certainty on the subject. It certainly
looks like a total failure of the mission, and we
sly 11l be prepared for a confirmation of that impret.
"sion. The 300 or 400 marines and the 300 soldiers
will be a valuable reinforcement that must be
acceptable under any circumstances. It may be,
too, that Lord ELGIN, finding that nothing could
achieved in China for the present, had come to

MARLBOROUGH STREET.

EXTRAORDINARY AND DARING ROBBERY.--A tall
well dressed young man, who gave the name of William
Ward, was brought before Mr. Beadon charged with
the following audacious and impudent rubbery :--
Madame Victorine Paul, tobacconist, No. 12, Sher-
rard-strest, Golden-square, deposed that on the previous
night, about eight o'clock, the prisoner came into her
shop and purchased a cigar. While she was giving him
a light., he looked round and said, "You have a fine
parlour there; will you allow me to smoke my cigar
there ?" She consented, and he went in. She went in
also, and he then shut the door. The parlour adjoined
the shop, and there was a door between. As soon as
she had entered the room the prisoner laid hold of her
by both her arms, and said ho had no time to stay then,
but woul come back at 10 o'clock. Hi, then wentout,
and she followed Lim into the shop. At that time she
had no suspicion that anything was wrong, but her
suspicions were considerably aroused, by seeing him as
soon as he reached the street, run away as fast as be
could. She then put her hand to her pocket, and missed
her purse containing 121. 5.. 6d. in gold and,
silver
money. She pursued the prisoner, chring out Police"
and " Stop thief," into Golder-square, where I.r.r.
Legros, a friend of hers, joined her, and ran after the
prisoner as far as Warwick-Street, where he was
stopped, and as soon as she got
Sheu again called outp, he said to her,
" let me go, here is your purse.
" Police," and a constable, 344 A, came up, and de-
clined to take the charge, alle4ing as his reason thht
prisoner was his friend. She insisted upon him doing
his duty, and be eventually arrested him. A great
crowd bad by that time assembled, and some thief stole

valuable gold watch from
,Mr. Legroe. The purse,
with its-contents; was her property.

prosecntrix's evidence, and added that while he was as-
sisting in detaining the prisoner his bold watch wort'
151. was at len from his waistcoat poclet.

Brady, 344, A, apprehended the prisoner from a
mob of about 200 people.: He searched him at the
station but nothing of consequence was found upon-him.
In reply t) Mr. Beadon, witness cloned saying t!,e
prisoner was his friend, or refining to take him
custody. Tae fact was quit) the reverse, the prisoner
was a man whom he had been long boking after.
Cole, 310, A, said the prisoner had been previou3ly
convfcted. •

The prisoner in defence said the charge was trumped
up by the woman, because he refused to make her a
present. -

BUENOS AYRES LOAN.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
SlR,—Various reports have circulated on this subject,
and some doubt expressed as to the bona fides of Senor
Riestra and his Government. Theyare not woll-founded.
The fact is 36,000/. ought to have been remitted to
-Messrs. Baring this year (1857). It is understood it has
not been so remitted. On the other hand, it is currently
reported Senor Riestra has ample funds, and is fulj
alive to the engagement he entred into as regards the
Active Debt. The formal approval of Congress is alone
wanting.- No doubt Caere seems delay, and unae•
countable delay too in all this. As nine months
of 1857 have nearly run out, the said 12,0001.
of 1857 may be added to the 48,0001. promised
in 1858, thus making a sum of 60,0001. Equa
to the full dividend of 6 per cent: a small surplus to
wards a redemption fund for next year.
.Now for the causes, or one cause, of all this. I gilts
it on rumour.

One or more very large holders of these bonds are
understood, in their anxiety for better conditions, to
have written out to Messrs. Baring's agent, unknown
to the distinguished-firm, to the committee, or to the
bondholders, and urging on bim to press for 3 per cent.
on all Deferred Bonds or Coupons, instead
of only 2, or any medium. This act, (no doubt
excellently well intended) is, it is -clear, simply
a terrible blunder, and besides being unjust to Messrs.
Baring, the committee and the bondholders, is equally
so to the agent, Mr. White, thus unfair to all concerned,
I give this as I hear it, but probably no great injury
will result in the end—and as to quarrelling with such
good intention, one is half disarmed—but a mistake it has
been, most assuredly on the part of some well-intentioned
persons.—l am sir, your obedient servant,

The interest which centred in the encounter between
tart, such turf celebrities as Blink Bonny and Ignoramus
crei.ted, an excitement which seemed to be shared in
common by the vast multitude that swarmed over the
course. Oa no former anniversary of the " St. Leger
Day" was the attendance so large. The weather, too,
wits beautifully fine, and not an incident of an unpleaPart
nature marred the proceedings. As the above detailed
account of the sport will show, both Ignoramus and
Blink Bonny were beaten, and John Scott again afforded
the public one of those surprises which have gained for
him the not inappropriate title of the " Wizard of the
North."
Imperieuse defeated Blink Bonny at Newmarket in the
spring, but her success was not so much ascribed to
merit as to an alleged " unfitness" in Blink Bonny.
Imperieuse afterwards ran at Epsom for the Oaks, and
was there almost distanced by Blink Bonny. Recently
at York Imperieuse ran twice, and was each time beaten.
Still Mr. Scott had-undiminished confidence in the St.
Leger chance of the mare, and to-day an additional proof
was furnished of the correctness of his judgment, and of
his wonderful training skill. Last year John Scott won
the St. Leger with Warlock, and this year be achieved a
similar triumph with Imperieuse, the importance of the
two victories being heightened by the fact of their being
obtained by animals that are called in turf parlance
" outsiders." Flatman was the fortunate jockey on each
occasion, but to his and John Scott's successes at Don-
caster this year must be added the Great Yorkshire
Handicap. Some bookmakers win, of course, but Mr.
Davis, we believe, " gets out" at a loss. Mr. Perry,
a geintleman on the Stook Exchange, is said to have
backed Imperious® for a large stake, a part of which
will be distributed amongst many persons ." in the
house." He is, however, a great winner.

THE MUTINIES IN INDIA.

The following telegraphic despatch, addressed
to Lord Clarendon, wai received at the Foreign-
office to-day, Sept. 17, 12.50 P.M. :
ALEXANDRIA, SEPT. 12.

general Havelock had advanced 25 miles from
Cawnpore, towards Lucknow, but, after defeating

The Shakawanti battalion was wavering, but
had not been disarmed yet.
Martial Law had been proclaimed in Behar.

Great uneasiness was felt in Calcutta of an out-
break during the approaching Mohurrun, and the
body guard had been disarmed, but allowed to
retain their horses.
