COUNCIL

I agree with Lieut -General sir P. Grant that the
duties of the Commander-in-Chief ()mist present be meet
efficiently and usefully discharged at the seat of Govern-
ment.
I think that this will continue to be the case—cer-
tairly until a larger European force shall have been
collected in the north-western provinces, and probably
as 1 ,ng as the ferment amongst the native troops and
the people continues to be so widely spread as it is at
present, leaving it uncertain where the next violent out-
burst may take place.
I am of opinion, however, that, as soon as the course
of events shall tend to allay the general disquiet, and to
show to what points our force should be mainly 4.
rented, with the view of crushing the heart of the rebel-
lion, it will be proper that his excellency should con-
sider anew the question of his movements.
His excellency's experience and high authority will
then, in all probability, be most usefully employed in the
disturbed districts, or their neighbourhood.
For the present there will be the greatest advantage
in.his Excel ency remaining at the seat of government.
Jane 22, 1§57.. COINING.
I. think so too. Till we see our way more clean)', his
Excellenby's authority will be most usefully exercised at
the Presidency.

June 22, 1857.
I concur in the above remark by Mr. Dorin. There
my, I think, much force and truth in the fourth and fi!th
paragraphs of his Excellency the Commander-in-Chiefs
memorandum of this date. J. Low.

June 22, 1857.
I quite agree.

Fort William, June 24i, 1857.
Sir,—ln continuation of my letter of the 20th instant,
and with reference to a memorandum by the acting
commander-in-chief, dated 22d instant, I am directed to
acquaint you for the information of Sir Patrick Grant,
K C.B , that the Governor-General in Council concurs
with his excellency that the duties of the commander-
in chief can at presebt be most efficiently discharged at
the seat of Government.
2. When the course of events shall tend to allay the
general cii=quiet, and to ,show to -what points our f( reel
ahoull be mainly d!rected, with the view of crushing the
'keit 9f the rebellion, it will, in the opinion of his Lord-
ship in Council, be proper for his excellency to consider
anew the question of his movements.

then, in all probability, be mo-t useful'y employed in

HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE.

Another grand "extra" performance, at low prices,
was given on Saturday evening at Her Majesty's
Theatre, and met with the same success which attended
the preceding ones—that is, every corner of the vast
salle was filled, and money refused g the doors.
The evening's entertainments %AN " La Traviata,"
with Piccolomini and Giuglini in the principal charac-
ters, and the last act of " Lucia," in which Giuglini
pereonated Edgardo.
Such familiar performances need no criticism ; but
we may state that the hero and heroine of the evening
were in the best possible voice, and exerted themselves
most zealously throughout.
Tne enthusiastic admiration of the audience was fre-
quently attested by overwhelming applause, recalls, re-
demands, and every other customary form of ovation.
but was most vehemently expressed when the principal
artiste sang " God save the Queen," Piceolonaini taking
the solo verses. This grand and unusually energef
execution of our national anthem called forth a tre-
mendous demonstration of patriotic feeling and loyalty ;
and the cars ballibina was sdte'ally honoured with
hearty and prolonged cheering from all parts of the
house.

We understand that the Queen has been graciously
pleased to command that M tjor-General Havelock shall
be promoted to the honour of being a Knight Com-
mander of the Bath, and that those other distinguished
officers, Wilson, Neill, Chamberlain, Nicholson and Van
Cortlandt, shall be made Companions of the Order.
THE QUEEN'S RETURN.—It is now expected that the
Queen mil visit the Ein of Aberdeen at Haddo Howe
beforo returning to England from Balmoral. The pre-
sent arrangements are said to contemplate Her Majesty's
travelling across the country on the 13th, and leaving
on the 14th, either by re-zroesing to Bancbory, where
the Royal train would be in waiting, or driving eight
miles to Old Millrum, where the Court would enter on
that short line leading into the Great North of Scotland,
and proceeding thence through Aberdeen and the
Scottish North-E tstern Rail way to E linbnrgh. Had lo-
home is about 40 miles from Balmoral and 18 from
A berdeen.
THE ACCIDENT ON TUE GREAT NORTHERN RAILWAY.
—John Jackson, Gf Bourn, labourer, whose arm was
amputated on Thursday night, has since died, makipg
five persons who have lost their lives by this accident.

THE, NEW SHERIFFS.—This afternoon Mr. Alderman
Lawrence and Mr. Allen, the newly elected sheriffs of
London and Middlesex, attended at Guildhall, and took
the oaths as sheriffs of L .nder. O❑ Wedr.esday they
will proceed to Westminster and be sworn in as sheriffs
of Middlesex.

RAILWAY FARES IN AUSTRALIA.—The tariff of fares
on-new colonial railways may be cnneidere I of some
little interest in this country. We find the charges en
the Geeleng and Melbourne line, just opened, to be at
the rate of 311. pr mile first class, 3d. pPr mile sec nd
alas., and lid. pir mile fur third class. Return tickets
are also issued on the English plan at about a fare and a
half.—Australia); and New Zealand Gazette.

expected that will tell us the proceedings before

Delhi, at Lucknow, Agra, and Cawnpore. We
shall know whether we have fresh massacres to
deplore, fresh degradation to avenge—whether
much required reinforcements have arrived, or
whether red-tapism has again deeply injured the
cause of British supremacy in the East !—whether
the gallant acts of HAVELOCK and his worthy
col'aborateurs have been neutralised by the civi-
lians at headquarters, who persuaded Lord CAN-
NING not to accept the aid tendered from
Nepaul? A slight turn in the balance may be of

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—Sept. 26.

MANSION-HOUSE.—SIR R. W. CARDEN AND
THE MAYORALTY.—On Saturday, Mr. Humphreys,
the solicitor, applied for a summons against a perz.on
of the name of Thomas Rose, at the instance of
Alderniau Sir R. W. Carden. Sir R. W. Carden,
asyour lordship is aware, is the next iu 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 for him in
the Guildhall of this city.

The Lord Mayor—This is a very similar case to
one in which the Bank of London recently pro-
cei ded against two persons. I have read the
clause in the act, and I feel that if what you state
is corrcct, I can have no difficulty in granting a
sum 01011..

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 ask me for a summons, with a distinct
undersianding that you will have witnesses to prove
what you have stated.
Mr. Humphreys—l am so told by Sir R. W.
Carden.

The Lord Mayor—l do not like the Mansion-.
heust justice-room to be made the place for settling
electioneering schemes, but if such proceedings as
you .have mentioned go on they must .he stopped.
Mr. Humphreys—l assure you that you have not
a greater enemy to these electioneering schemes
than the person who now add, eqes you. I would
not make an applicltiou for a summons, or any-
thing else, unless I was determined to carry it out
to the end.
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.
Mr. Humphreys—lf your lordship pleases.
The Lord Mayor—Do you think. it is a matter
that preses ?
Mr. Humphreys—Oh, no, I do not think it
presses.
The summons was issued, and the caso will be
heard on Friday next. _ _ _

THE CHARGE OF FRAUD AGAINST MR. JEFFRES
AND LORD OLINTON.—Mr. Alfred Jeffree and Lord
Charles Pelham Pelham Clinton again appeared
beforo the Lord Mayor in discharge of their recog-
nisances, in answer to a suwmons which had been
o.)tained at the instance of Mr. Francis William
S-ockwell, a mining and sharehroker, 75, Old
Broad-street, and which charged them with having
conspired and combined to cheat and defraud the
complainant of the sum of 500/.
_

After the examination of a number of witnesses
the summons was dismissed. 801 l Lord Clinton
and Mr. Jeffree announced their intention of pro-
ceeding against Mr. Stockwell.

BY THE QUEEN.—A PROCLAMATION
For a Day of Solemn. Fast, Humiliation, and. Prayer

in Scotland.

Victoria It.—We, taking into our most serious consi-
deration, the grievous mutiny and disturbaoces which
have broken out in India and putting our trust
in Almighty God that ho will graciously bless
oar efforts for the restoration of lawful authority
in that country, have resolved, and do, by and with the
advice of our Privy Council, hereby command that a
public day of solemn fast, humiliation, and prayer be
observed throughout that part of our kingdom of Great
Britain called Scotland, on Wednesday, the 7th day of
Oct. next, that so both we and our people may humble our-
selves before Almighty God, in order to obtain pardon
of our sine, and in the most devout and solemn manner
send up our prayers and supplications to the Divine
Majesty for imploring his blessing and assi tance on our
arms for the restoration of tram guilty ; and we do strictly
charge and command, that the said day be reverently and
devoutly observed by all our loving subjects in Scot-
land, as they tender the favour of Almighty God :—Our
will in, therefore, and we charge that, this our procla-
mation seer, ye forthwith proceed to the Market Cross
of Edinburgh, and all other places needful, and there,
in our more and authority, make publication hereof,
that none pretend ignorance : and our will and pleasure
ic, that our solicitor do cause printed copies-hereof
to be sent to the sheriffs of the several shires, stew-
arts of stewartries, and bailiffs of regatities, and their
clerks, whom we ordain to see the same published ;
and we do appoint them to send copies hereof to the
several parish churches within their bounds, that upon
the Lord's Day immediately preceding the day above
mentioned, the same may be published and read from
the pulpit, immediately after Divine Service.
Given at our Court at Balmoral, this twenty-fourth day
of Septesiber, in the year of our Lord, one•thousand
eight hundred and fifty-seven, and in the twenty-firA
year of our reign.
GOD SAVE THE QUEEN.

WESTMINSTER.

A FORMIDABLE 11EIIIAN.—Richard Mamba, a tall,
powerful fellow, was placed at the bar, cbarged with
attempting to stab a woman with whom he cohabited,
and with committing a series of savage assaults.
Police-constable John Edwards, 151 B, said that at
2 o'clock yesterday morning he was called to the New-
road, Chelsea, to take the prisoner into custody for at-
tempting to stab the woman with whom he cohabited.
The knife was wrested from his hand, and he was taken
into custody, but on arriving at Wharton-street said,
with a disgusting oath, that no policeman should take
him. He then threw complainant down, and gave him
two severe kicks with his thick boots in the stomach.
After the charge had been taken at the station-house
prisoner rushed upon complainant, and seiz'ag him with
both hands by the stomach squeezed him until he
shrieked out with pain.
William Seymour, 19G, B, said that he want to the
other constable's assistance, when prisoner threw him
down and kicked him violently. He laid across the ac-
cused to endeavoured to take his chose off, whea he
kicked him violently on the bead. Prisoner was drunk.
Mr. Paynter—Why did not you strike him with your
truncheon. In your struggles with a drunken savage
you may be disabled for life ; your truncheon is given
you to defend yourself with, and should be used on such
occasions—a slight blow with it across the shins when a
man is kicking in this savage way, or a blow across the
arms when he is striking with his fists, might make him

desist.
Policeman—l had net a truncheon with me. I was
merely passing off duty.
James Page, 147 B, proved that the prisoner kicked
him twice on the head and twice on the stomach. Wit-
ness endeavoured to persuade him to walk quietly to the
station, and he promised that he wool], but the very
moment he was released, he rushed upon witness, threw
him down and again kicked him.
Prisoner said he was drunk and knew ❑othing about

it.
Mr. Poynter—Where is the woman with whom be
cohabited.
Policeman Edwards—After we bad been beaten about
she refused to come to the station to charge him.
Mr. Paynter (to prisoner)—How long have you been
in this parish.
Prisoner—All my life—l am an Englishman.
Mr. Paynter—lf you are an Englishman yon should
not be a savage. You are committed for three months
to hard labour in the House of Correction.

HER MAJESTY'S TREATER.

Another grand "extra" performance, at low pricer,
was given on Saturday evening at Her Majesty's
Theatre, and mct with the aramo success which attended
the preceding ones--that is, every corner of the vast
salle was filled, and money refused at the doors.
The evening's entertainments were " La Traviata,"
with Piccolomini and Giuglini in the principal charac-
ters, and the last act of " Lucia," in which Giuglini
personated Edgardo.
Such familiar performances need no criticism ; but
we may state that the hero and heroine of the evening
were in the best possible voice, and exerted themselves
most zealously throughout.
The enthusiastic admiration of the audience was fre-
quently attested by overwhelming applause, recall, re-
demands, and every other customary form of ovation,
but was moat vehemently exrressed when the principal
artists sang " God save the. Queen," Piccolomini taking
the solo verses. This griatd and unusually esergeti3
execution of cm; national anthem called forth a tn.
mendous demonstration of 'patriotic feeling and loyalty ;
and the cars bambina Was specially honoured with
hearty and prolonged cheer ing from all parts of the
house,

We understand that the Queen has been graciously
pleased to command that Major-General Havelock shall
be promoted to the honn,ur of being a Knight Com-
mander of the Bath, and that those other distinguished
officers, Wilson, Neill, Cha•mbcrlain, Nicholson and Van
Cortlandt, shall be made C otwanionss of the Order.
THR QuEmes RETURN.—L; is now expected that the
Queen will visit the Earl of .Aberdeen at Haddo Home
before returning to England'. from Balmoral. The pre-
sent arrangements are said to contemplate Her Majesty's
travelling across the count r. 7 on the 13th, and leaving
on the 14th, either by re-avcssing to Banchory, where
the Royal train would be in waiting, or driving eight
miles to Old Malrurn, whem the Court would enter on
that short line leading into tb a Great North of Scotland,
and proceedin, thence 0- a ou4h Aberdeen and the
53c)ttiAh North-Eastern Rai' v .ay to E linburgh. Iladdo-
honFe is abaut 40 miles In on Balmoral and 18 from
Aberdeen.

FOREIGN SUPPLY.

Beasts'
Sheep ani lambs 1,680
Calves
Pigs

Compared with some pnvions weeks the show of foreign
stock in to•day's market was only moderate. Some of the
beasts and sheep sold at high prices.
From our own grazing districts the arrivals of beasts
fresh up this morning were tolerably good in number, but
their general qualify was by no means first-rate. Most
breeds were in good request, and, in some instances, the
primest Scots, &c., wore rather dearer—the top figure br-
ing ss. per Sibs. ; otherwise, the beef trade ruled steady,
at full pi ices.

The arrivals from Lincolnshire, Leicesterelaire;and North-
amptonshire amounted to 2,500 short horns ; from other
parts.of England 300 of various breeds : and from Ireland

We were again very scantily supplied with sheep, in the
condition of which there was no improvement. Nearly all
breeds were in good request, and last Monday's improve-
ment in value was well supported. The primest Downs
sold at quite 5s Gd per Sibs.

There were very, few calves in the market, and tho veal
trade ruled brisk at 4d per 81bs above the currencies paid
on Monday last.

We had a steady demand for pigs at very full prices.
The supply was only moderate.
