CARDINAL 'WISEMAN ON TILE INDIAN

order of services for Suaday next, the day
appointed for humiliation—an indulgence being
granted to all the faithful who shall take part
in certain of the services for the intentions and
objects of the Jay's supplication.
In reference to the collections to be made, his
Eminence says,--
"As the pricsA who have generously offered to go as
chaplains to the seat of war, beyond a most inadequate
salary, are allowed nothing for outfit, or for the provision
of things necessary for religious worship, the proceeds of
the collection will be in part applied to supply this want.
As yet we do not know the extent of loss by destruction
of ecclesiastical or conventual property in India, but we
know for certain that several religious communities have
lost their all. While no doubt they will receive such
relief from public funds as is awarded to individual
sufftrers, we can easily understand that they will re-
quire special assistance in consideration of their re-
ligious state, of which, probably, no regard will be had
in the distribution of such funds. To these particular
wants our attention will likewise be devoted. Should
your particular charity enable us to go beyond these
special wants, any surplus would be thrown into the
general subscription for the relief of the distress in India,
towards which many of yon hive doubtless sent your
subscriptions."

POLICE INTIILLIGTNCE.—Sept. 26.

MUTINIES.

Yesterday morning a pastoral letter from Cardi-
nal Wiseman was read in all tha Roman CAholic
places of worship in the metropolis, on the subject
of the Indian mutinies, directing that next Sunday
be set apart by the Roman Catholic body as a day
of humiliation and prayer, and that a collection
should be then made for the objects specified. His
Eminence says :
" When lately, dearly beloved i❑ Christ, our country
was afflicted with war, we called upon you to pray to
the God of Armies for yid ry and for peace. They came
to ns in good time ; and, scarcely heeding these lesser
wars which harassed our Eastern frontiers in Persia and
in China, we believer? that we had before us a long period
of national tranquillity, and of cansequent prosperity.
"And now so soon again we have to invite you to
call aloud to the God of mercies that He would spare us
the afflicting and harrowing scones which have been, and
ase probably still, acted on our own trrritories, of which
those possibly dear to us, at least our own people, are
the victims ; and that Be would once more give back
order and quiet rule to the continent of India.
" Who will attempt to de: cribs the terrible calamity
which has overwhelmed us? 'Behold a litt►e cloud came
out of the sea like a man's foot,' and while he who be-
held it ' turned himself this way and that way, behold
the heavens grew dark with clouds and wind, and there
fell a great rain,' not, alas ! of refreshing waters, but
of gore in battle, and blood i❑ massacre. For truly bad
it had been merely war with its usual array of evils that
we had to deplore—had there been suddenly commenced
the conflict of brave men in honourable warfare, it would
have been enough to ss.dden us and to direct our t houghts
to supplication for peace. But here it has been the
sudden rising of an inemense army, subject as much as
our troops at home to the Crown of this realm,—armed,
trained, clothed, and fed by the power which there
represents it ; their rising by conspiracy, which has
silently and darkly included tens of thousands, to break
out openly like a plague in separated spots, under one
law of cruel perfidy and treacherous brutality. Almost
without exception, as you all have learnt, regiment
after regiment has murdered the officers who had led
them to battle, and who trusted in their fidelity, till
the volley was fired or the thrust was made which laid
at the feet of Cowards those who living had made them
brave. Far, transformed by that deed of treachery into
assassins, these hordes of sava.%e mutineers seem to have
cast aside the commonest feelings of humanity, and to
have not merely resumed the barbarity of their ancient
condition, but borrowed the ferocity of the tiger in the
jungle, to torture, to mutilate, to agonize, and to
destroy. Nay, if we hal imagined to ourselves the un-
checked excesses of .a fiendish fury by which legions of
demons let loose against a tribe accursed of God would
have marked their progress of devastation, the picture
would have fallen short of what has been perpetrated,
in a land that we called our own and thought that we
had blessed wita earthly happiness, on those whom many
around us know, whom some near us may have tenderly

MANSION-HOUSE.—SIR R. W. CARDEN AND
THE MAYORALTY.—On Saturday, Mr. Humphreys,
the solicitor, applied for a summons against a person
of the name of Thomas Rose, at the instance of
Alderman Sir R. W. Carden. Sir R. W. Carden,
as your lordship is aware; is the next in rotation for
the office of lord mayor of this great city, and an
attempt has been made to extort from him money
for the purpose of bringing voters to vote for him,
first, of course, to hold up their hands fur him in
the Guildhall of this city.

The Lord Mayor—This is a very similar case t
one in whit& the Bank of London recently pro-
ceeded against two persons. I have read the
clause in the act, and I feel that if what you state
is correct, I can have no difficulty in granting a
summon.

" It is not our duty of our wish to detail the horrors
of this overthrow of Indian civilisation, containing as
they do so much of what the apostle tells must not even
be named among us. Suffice it to say that no indignity,
no insult, no dishonour has been spared ; that nothing
which cruelty in its refinement or in its grossness could
devise or execute has been omitted from the black ca-
talogue of committed crimes ; that no regard has been
had of the sacredness of age, of the helplessness of wo-
manhood, nor of the innocence of infancy ; that compas-
sion, remorse, the ties of previous obligations, familiarity,
and friendship seem to have lost their hold on these
maddened contrivers of total ex ermination. And many
crimes there have been, ❑o doubt, too hideous for
revelation—scenes of lawless license and unbridled
brutality, of which no record has been kept save in the
reckonings of Him who wi.l one day brieg to light the
hidden things of darkness and amply repay them.
"At the contemplation of these scenes of horror the
mind stands aghast, and is filled with strange surmises
and perplexed %sith conflicting judgments,' till it merges
its terrors, its anxieties, and its shifting thoughts in the
depths of that ever consistent wisdom which can weave
the vilest of man's designs and the blackest of their
actions into a web of provilential mercies and of un-
stinted goodness. What expiation and what high reward
may have come to many who, with patience in faith,
have endured torments like to those of ancient martyrs?
—how large a new band of innocents may have been
welcomed in heaven by their forerunners of Bethlehem,
slain even through hatred and fear of the same Christ—
what a sweeping away of the old and rotten basis of
civilisation, that a juster and a purer reconstruction of
it follow, may hay e been practicable only by this
ravaging flood—what a purging of a foul atmosphere
of hidden crime for the shining of a warmer and a
brighter sun may have been effected by the unsparing
whirl of this tempest—in fine, what a second and re-
newed prosperity may be in store for that empire after
the marauders have rushed in and taken away all and
slain its servants,' and A violent wind has come from
the side of the desert and shaken the four corners orits
house, and it has fallen upon 1;9 children and they are
dead '—what, in fine, of beauty and loveliness God may
cause this new desert to bud forth ;—ell these things
He alone knoweth, but we may pray to Him to grant
and do,

THE REINFORCEMENTS FOR INDIA.

"Yet, however confident we may feel not only of ,
future but of present mercy, it is so covered with an
aspect of actual severity, so•mingled with signs of im-
pending judgments, that oar first thought must be that
of propitiation, and of calming the Divine ind gn ttion
which visits us and that distant dependency for trans-
gressions and sins, which if dimly seen by man may be
clzar to God's penetrating eye. So sudden, so unex-
pected, so overwhelming, and apparently so canseless a
calamity comes, no doubt, by the permission of God,
and has its reasons buried in his unsearcnable mind.
Hal it fallen upon our forefathers in Githolic days one
would have seen the streets of this city trodden in every
d'rection by penitential proceesiots of men and women
crying out aloud, like. David when pestilmce had struck
the people. And this is likewise our first impulse, to
turn to God in affliction and contrition of spirit, to hum-
ble ourselves beneath His mighty hand, to set onr faces
to the Lord God, and say to Him, To Thee, 0 Lord,
justice, but to us confusion of face,' and then to entreat
Hint to show us again the light of His countenance, to
scatter the gentiles who delight in war,' and rebuke
the wild beasts of the reeds.' For then, indeed, and
then alone, may we justly claim the mercies of the Lord,
when we have sought to a?pease His wrath.
"Such, then, is the double object which we propose
to ourselves in addressing you. If we have waited some
time before carrying it out, it has been because a day
was approaching which seemed especially suited to our
purpose. Accordingly, on the 11th of this month, a e
addressed a letter to each of our right rev. brethren in
England informing him of our intention to issue this
pastoral, and appoint the first Sunday in October as a
day of general supplication and collections for India in
this our diocese.
"On that day, known familiarly among us as 'Rosary
Sunday,' the church publicly thanks God for victories
gained over great Infidel Powers threatening the de-
struction of Christian nations. And these victories she
attributes to the humble supplications of her children,
c ,inciding in day and hour with the defeats of the ene-
my. Now, these supplications consisted mainly in the
recital publfcly of that very chaplet of our Lady which
that Sunday honours and suggests. Rigaged in a simi-
lar contest, let us have recourse to similar means, and

(Franz Thacker's Overland News.)

The following is a complete and corrected list of
the transports which have sailed for India with
reinforcements of troops to supress the Sepoy mu-
tinies ; also the vessels engaged to take out the
last ordered to India, and now embarking. The
dates and numbers having been corrected from the
official list, and the detail of officers embarked
added to each detachment, will account for any dis-
crepancies from the previous statements, and makes
the information in its present form complete.
Those vessels named as destined for Ceylon touch
at Point de Galle for final orders. The movements
of these vessels of which we have any tidings are
given in the footnotes:'
From the totals given by this list it will be seen
that 77 vessels have already sailed for India since
the news of the revolt first reached home, con-
veying to the assistance of our "countrymen a force
of 29,235 men of /all ranks of Cavalry, Infantry,
and Artillery ; and that a further force of 5,000
men of the Cavalry,• Infantry, Artillery, Engineers,
and Field Train will embark almost immediately
for the same destination. As the vessels which
first left these shores have now been out close upon
90 days, we may calculate with some degree of
certainty that, in addition to the 14,000 reinforce-
ments already landed at Calcutta from China, the
Cape, and Mauritius, relief from England will now
daily arrive, and that during next month a force
of over 9,000 men will be landed and sent up the
country, to be followed in November by nearly
18,000 men, and in the following month, Decem
ber, by nearly 18,000 more, including the 5,000
now embarking ; so that by the close of the year
we shall have increased the British force in India
by at least 48,000 well-seasoned and disciplined
troops of every arm in the service :

Mr. Humphreys—lf these things are allowed to
go on I am afraid, my Lord Mayor, that corrup-
tion will be the only thing known in the City of
London.

The Lord Mayor—lt is understood that this is
not an electioneering matter. You really come
seriously to atilc me for a summons, with a distinct
understanding that you will have witnesses to prove
what you have stated.

The Lord Mayor—l do not like the Mansion-
house justice-room to be made the place for settling
electioneering schemes, but if such proceedings as
yon have mentioned go on they must be stopped.
Mr. Humphreys—l assure you that you have not
a greater enemy to these electioneering schemes
than the person who now addieues you. I would
not make an application for a summons, or any-
thing else, unless I was determined to carry it out
to the end. .

break down the fierce rower of the enemies, and rescue
from their cruelty their helpless victims, and that He
will grant the consolations of patience to all sufferers,
and especially to those bereaved of their dear ones ; and
do not forget in your warmest prayers those many
spouses of the Lamb, the sisters of various orders who
have left their homes in Europe to instruct the children
arid nurse the sick of those barbarians. Great has been
our joy at hearing of the escape of so many of their num-
ber—an escape, in some instances, little short of mira-
culous. But we know not bow many more remain in
peril, and we are certain of some.
" En'reat, then, the God of battles to arise and scatter
His enemies, the enemies of His name, of His faith, and
of His very unwritten law—the law of humanity in-
scribed in every heart. He can give victory to our
,-tanilards and conquest to our arms. Bag of Him to
strengthen the hands of our soldiers and fortify their
frames against the poison of the swamp and the arrows
of the sun ; to fill their heats with the noble courage of
the Clinstian soldier, the chivalry of the valiant knight,
not with the ferocity of the Pagan, or the mere thirst
for slaughter of the savage. Liven not to the sanguin-
ary cries by which passions sufficiently natural And too
likely to be ir,fi caned beyond the verge of justice by the
horrible spectacles on which they wi l be fed arc urged
forward to still madder excitement. Remember that the
words ' vengeance' and revenge' were washed out by
the blood of Calvary frern the catalogue of man's as-
sumed rights ; that they are reserved to God alone, who
wil make use of man's justice, stern and inexorable, but
leaving loom stil for mercy to creep in, for the avenge-
ment of The own violated law. No, we must give a notle
example, which will show the very heathen that Chris-
tiaeity has a sacred power to conquer iu the soul even
the most mighty and most sweet of corrupt human
instincts.
" And pray ye thus for that peace which will not leave
a 'a ilderness for a kingdom, nor ruins for its cities. Let
the guilty he dealt with so that the land be purged of
its inquity, and then let just laws, and honest principles,
and fear of God, and large Christian views prevail, with-
out oppression of the heathen or unfairness to Christians,
that so once more the land may be clothed with abund-
ance and its inhabitants abide in safety. And thus shall
it be if God so direct the counsels of the nations' rulers
as to be wise and moderate abroad and at home, here
preventing religious strife, and there not fomenting
p litical convulsions, uniting all here in equality of state,
and winning back the confidence and admiration of the
stranger, that so this realm may lie staid in lastin
peace, and hold its high dominion undisputed over the
sea, and respected in every land."
Then is proscribed the order of prayer and the

The Lord Mayor—Upon that assurance I will
grant the summons. I think it better not to have
it heard till the election is over.

BOTANIC REMEDY FOR INDIGESTION.—The attention
of our readers is requested to an advertisement in our
paper headed '• A Fact for Physiologists," in which the
Nottingham Medical Reform Society propose to send
free to all applicants the Botanic Retnedyfor Indigestion,
Bilious and Liver Complaints, litely discovered by
Professor Webster, of Philadelphia.
[ADVERTIBEMENT.]—HoIIoway's Ointment and Pills
Matchless Remedies for Inveterate Ulcers.—Mrs. Ann
Edwards, of Gloucester, was a great sufferer for nearly
12 yea7s with several obstinate ulcers in the legs,
accompanied with a continual and preternatural dis-
charge, corrupting the entire system, resisting every
mode Of treatment devised by her medical attendant and
others of the faculty. Having heard of the numerous
cures effected by Holloway's pills and ointment, she was
induced to give them a trial, and to the astonishment of
herself and friends, was quickly and soundly cured.—
So!d by all medecine vendors throughout the world ; at
professor Holloway's Establishments, 244, Strand,
London, and 80, Maiden-lane, New York ; by A. Stampa,
Constantinople ; A. Guidicy, Smyrna ; and E. Muir,
Malta.
[AroaansxmaNT.]—SPORTS.MEN AND GENTLEMEN OF THE ARMY
AND NAVY.—S. and B. So'ontons, opticians, 39, Albemarle-
street, Piccadilly West. Observe—opposite the York Hotel.
—Portability, combined_with g eat power in the Field, Race-
course, Opera, and general out-door day and night powerful
waistcoat-pocket Perspective Glasses, weighing only four
ounces, each containing 12 and 18 lenses, constructed of
German glass, will show distinctly a person's countenance
two and a half and three miles. They serve every purpose
on the race-course, and at the opera-houses. Country scenery
and ships aro clearly seen at eight to ten mil's. They are
also invaluable for shooting, deer-stalking, and yachting.
Single ones, the size of a walnut, possessing the same great
power. Her Majesty's Coast Guards are making use of them
as day and night glasses, lu general use by gentlemen of the
Army and Navy, and by sportsmen, gentlemen, gamekeepers,
and tourists. The most powerful and brilliant telescop s,
possessing such extraordinary power that some, three and a
half inches, wi h an extra astronomical eye-piece, will show
distinctly Jupiter's moons, . Saturn's r ing, and the double
stars. With the same telescope can be seen a person's coun-
tenance three and a half miles distant, and an object from 14
to 16 miles All the above can be had of larger and all sizes,
with increasing powers' and are secured by Her Majesty's
Royal Letters Patent. Newly-invented Spectacle Lenses of
the greatest transparent power. The valuable advantage de-
rived front this invention that vision becomes preserved
and strengthened ; very aged persons arc enabled to employ
their sight at the most minute occupation—can see with these
lenses of a much less magnifying power—and they do not re-
quire the frequent changes to the dangerous effects of further
powerful assistance. Persons can be suited at the most re•
mote part of the World by sending one of the glasses out of
their spectacles in a letter, and stating the distance from the
eye they can read small' print with it, and those who have
not made use of spectacles by stating their age. Deafness.,---
A newly-invented ifistiument for extreme cases of deafn,ss,
called the Sound Magnifier, Organic Vibrator, and invisible
Voice Conductor, It fits so into the ear as not to
.be in the
least perceptible. The unpleasant sensation of singing ioisea
in the head is entirely removed. It affords instant relief to
the deafest pers us, and enables them to hea- distinctly at
church and at public assemblies. 39, Albemarle-street, Pic-
cadilly opposite the York liotel)

The summons was issued, and the case will be
beard on Friday next.
