not to have imperilled the safety of the station,
and the destinies of India, in deference to the
whims of a senile valetudinarian. Everything that
can be urged in favour of General LLOYD, tells
with fourfold force against *the authorities. If
he could not lead his troops, and could only give
instructions from a safe distance, those who plaqed
and retained him in so important a command
are justly responsible to the nation for
his shortcomings. If he could be "most
useful on board the steamer," leaving
to others the task of following up the mutineers
by land, he ought not to have been retained in
the position which he occupied. His defence is
the inculpation of the Government. The respon-
sibility must rest somewhere, it cannot be ban-
died about from quarter to quarter. Great mis-
chief has been occasioned to the nation, and it
must be fully expiated by the real delinquent, or
delinquents, whoever he or they may be.

THE FOTTEGHUR MUTINY.
The following account of the Futteghur mutiny
was drawn up by one of the survivors. It is dated
Cawnpore, Sept. 13 :
On the 3d of June Information was received at
Futteghur, that the troops at Sha,hjehanpore and
Bareilly had mutinied, and that a body of the mu-
tineers, consisting of an infantry and cavalry corps,
were marching into Fatteghur. This caused great
anxiety, as the 10th wire known to be mutinously-
disposed, for they had even out that as soon as an-
otker corps arrived they would rise and murder all
the Europeans, only 'paring their own officers.
That night a consultation was held, and it was con-
sidered absolutely necersary to send off the ladies
and children to Cawnpere, and as boats had been
secured it was settled tint a start should be made
at once, as it had been before agreed that it was
impossible to hold the fort, and it was at that time
thought that the river was quite open. All was
settled, when several gentlemen said that unless the
magistrate accompaniee them they would not leave
the station. He agreel to go •, accordingly the
party started at I a.m. an the 4th, and got on very
welt that night. The next merning we were joined
by some of the officers of the 10th, who reported
that the 10th had mttinied, seized the treasure,
abused the Colonel, atd fired on one or two of their
officers, and that there was little chance of any of
those who had remained behind having escaped.
We accordingly proleeded on our way, and when
opposite the village Koosomkhow were fired upon
by the villagers, but only one of our party was
slightly 'wounded. The next day we had not gone
far when a report reached us that the Oude
troops were • crossing one of the ghats a_ few
miles below. The boats were anchored tin in-
formation could be received from the man at the
ferry ; when he came up he said it was false, so
a consultation was held to know what was best
to be done, and as the party was very large it
was agreed that it would be safer to divide. Hur-
deobuksh havingoffered Mr, Probyn protection, with
any of his friends, it was settled to go to his fort.
About 40 European§ availed themselves of the pro-
tection offered. The remainder of the party pro-
ceeded to Cawnpore, as no intelligence of the mu-
tiny there had reached us ; and I may hero antici-
pate the narrative by stating that the whole of the
party, ainouuting to about 126 souls, who went
down the river were foully murdered by Nana
Sahib at Cawnpore. Arriving within a few miles
of Dhurrumpore (about 10 miles from Futteghur)
we learnt that the Colonel had induced the 10th to
return to their duty ; that though they had the
treasure in their posse Pion, all was going on much
ad usual. Accordingly Mr. Pronyn and two officers
rode into Iruttegnur to ascertain the state of
affairs. After remaining two days Mr. Probyn re-
turned to Dhurrumpore, where he and his family,
with Mr. W. Edwards, collector of Badaon, even-
tually remained under the protection of lieredo-
huksh. _ _ . _

THE MAGAZINES.

Colburn,'s New Monthly. —Thera is a story by
the author of "Ashley," called " The Pines." It
is a continuation of the tale commenced last month,
but it is so arranged that it will interest one who
has not read its predecessor. This is an ingenious
contrivance of this clever author, as strangers
taking up the magazine are not puzzled to make
out the antecedents of a narrative. A sensible
article is 'net, with on the subject of "Demoralising
French Literature." It refers to a work by Eugene
Poitoux on the topio. It is a question that ought to
be considered, as it is one of great importance,
and the reflections here made are very salutary
ones. "Our Sermon" is an admirable contribu-
tion, by E. Rowell, on some affecting incidents
that occurred at the massacre of Cawnpore. " Our
Contemporaries" is an interesting sketch of the
history of the "Press" of the present day, founded
on a recent French work. It contains a useful sum-
mary of general information, and its tone is alike
removed from flattery or prejudice. " The Baths
of Lucca," and "The Swedish Voyage round the
World," are continued ; and the Eastern crisis is
considered in a poem possessing the solemn title of
" India's Dark Hour."

The Mechanics' Magazine.—This excellent serial
progresses with vigour. It is of a more scientific
oharacter than any other of its class, and one of its
distinguishing features is the scientific nature of the
articles and correspondence, many of which would
be as interesting to the amateur as to the practical
man of business. It is a clear proof of the advance-
ment of scientific knowledge when a publication of
this kind is regularly issued at so low a price. We
trust it will continue to meet with the public en-
couragement it merits.

Knight's English Cyclopcedia. Part 57. Bradbury

and Evans.

The excellent biography of this Cyclopcedia is
drawing to a close, and will, when completed, be
one of the most compendious and extensive in the
language. The introduction of living persons; and
of all the celebrities of antiquity prevents any
omission of importance, and as a work of reference
it will be invaluable. The biographies are usually
written with moderation and fairness.

Knight. Bradbury and Evans.
The twenty-third part of this useful history

The woodcuts are numerous and of a superior kind.
Among them is a portrait of Henrietta Maria, from

Magistrate—What was your former employmen

Prisoner—l hays been a lecturer on teetotalism,
sir, and also a Sunday school teacher in the neigh-
bourhood of Mile End. I don't know how it was,
sir, but I gradually slid away from that happy
course, and, and—here I stand, justly charged with
a robbery. Oh, it is a sad change.
Magistrate—A sad change, indeed, if your state-
moot is a truthful one. Your employer has ex-
pressed a desire not to press the charge against you,
but I feel it my duty to remand you for a week.
The prisoner was removed to the cells, still in

approved of the amount) to direct the paymasters of
their depots or staff-officers of pensioners to pay to the
soldiers' wives the amount so left, also the three shillings

be a great boon to the soldier and inflict no additional

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

TATTERSA LL'S—MONDAY.
Bookmaker and backers of horses almost made a

therefore, was not remarkably heavy on either side. Mr.
' T. Parr, Mr. Bates, of Bolton, Al r. Thornhill, and a
large majority of " gentlemen sports/Den," are the prin-
t cipal winners on the Cambridgeshire. The complaints
ithis afternaon were " few and far between," aed they
'were principally directed against those gentlemen who
Iliad neglected to send in their accounts, and who evi•
dent/y intend to winter on them.
Between the interval of paying and receiving attempts
were made to resume speculation, but they were attended
with little success. The prices which we have given

to be exiled to the Canaries, were not to be sent off,
but to be brought to trial. The Ministers had

to examine into the question of the press.

LONDON, TUESDAY, NOV. 3, 1857.

India is at present the subject to which the
public mind is necessarily directed, almost to the
exclusion of all other topics of minor interest.
We cannot, then, feel surprised that it should
form the leading topic in the vacation addresses,
by which the members of both branches of the
L'igislature endeavour to keep their names before
We public during the Parliamentary recess. Men
of all parties, of all shades and varieties of political
opinion, have spoken out boldly and unequivo-
cally—and, we may add, with extraordinary
unanimity, on this point. First crush the rebel-
lion, and inflict condign punishment on those who
have not only proved unfaithful to their salt—
turning the weapons with which they had been
entrusted against their employers—but have im-
brued their hands in the blood of women and
children, under circumstances of the most horrible
cruelty and fiendish atrocity. Then place tie
future Government of India on a stable and satis-
factory foundation, so that one of the brightest
jewels in the British diadem shall remain untar-
nished, and that everything practicable may be
elected to promote the welfare, happiness, and
prosperity of the people, and render them contented
vith.our rule. These are the objects to be ar-
rived at, and although there may be some differ-
ences of opinion as to the means best calculated
to achieve such important results, few, indeed,
concur with the morb:d. sentimentality the
pseudo-humanitarianism of Lard CANNING, or his
umbra, Mr. J. P. GRANT, or desire that there
should be any interference with the victorious
generals, while carrying out the stern behests of
retributive justice.

Among the many speakers on this interesting
und important topic was the Earl of SHAFTESBURY,
who, on Friday, presided at a public meeting at
Wimborne, Dorset, for the purpose of raising
additional contributions for the relief of the suf-
frera by the Indian mutiny. The occasion was
appropriate, and it is due to the Noble Lord to
Pay that he "improved" it very felicitously.
Tie opinions of such a man as Lord
SHAFTESBURY are worthy of notice, not
merely because be is a Peer and the Lord-
Lieuttnaut of a county, nor that h• is closely
connected with the Premier, but because he is a
man the purity of whuse motives and general
Ailanthropy are beyond question, and, still more
so, because he is a recognised leader amongst a
large and influential section of the community.
The Evangelical party, as it is generally termed,
look up with profound respect and esteem to the
Noble Earl. He may be regarded as giving ex-
pression to their views and feelings ; and we
rejoice to find that his sentiments are in unison 1

GERMANY.

The Frankfort journals publish the following ex-
. tracts of the minutes of the sitting of the Diet :
" In the sitting of the Diet of the 29th ult. the
president made known officially to the assembly
that the representatives of the States of Lauen-
bourg had appealed to the Diet relative to the pro-
tection due to their constitutional rights and con-
formably to the treaties with that duchy. The
representatives of Austria and Prussia took this
communication as their starting point, and entered
into a detailed explanation of the negotiations
which had been carried on with the Danish govern-
ment relative to the Duchies of Holstein and Lauen-
bourg, and the unfavourable results of those nego-
tiations. They added that their governments did
not think it right to leave the question in such
an undecided state, and that consequently they
placed it in the hands of the Confederation, is
order that it might be examined and a decision
come to on the subject. It was decided that the
matter should be referred to a special committee,
to be appointed at the next sitting. The repre-
sentative of Hanover, on the same occasion, also
made a declaration (already known from other
sources) relative to the duchies, to which was at-
tached the following proposition :—To cause an
examination to be made by a committee of the
obligations imposed on the Danish government by
federal rights and the negotiations of 1851-52, and
their accomplishment or non-accomplishment. In
the event of its being found that they have not been
accomplished, that the Danish government shall be
requested by the Germanic Diet to do so as regards
the duchies of Holstein and Lauenbourg within a
certain delay."

NEW MUSIC.

John Brown ; Poetry and Music by Charles
Mackay. The .North Carolina Rose ; by W. H.
Montgomery. English Vocal Duets.—" Musical
Bouquet" Office, High Holborn.
The reading public has already welcomed "John
Brown" to their firesides ; and the musical public
will be glad to learn that the said John Brown
now appears garbed in round and flowing
melody. There is much of the hearty old
English school in the style of the air, and we can
pronounce the song to be a genial production, in
every way worthy of its talented author. The
" North Carolina Rose " forms an agree-
able addition to our stock of nigger
melodies. Simple harmony marks it through solo
and chorus, which, with the aid of a few chords on
the piano or guitar, yields a pleasing effect. The
Vocal English Duets are " got up" in a manner
which reflects the highest credit on the proprietors
of the "Musical Bouquet." To possess the good and
beautiful music of such works ai "I know a bank,"
"When ali ale farm we keep," "Time has not thinned
my Flowing Hair," "All's Well," and numerous
others of the same order, at the rate of a few pence
each, is a great boon to lovers of sweet sounds.
Indeed, the whole of the music issued from this
office is of a most excellent class, comprising the
productions of the first masters, ancient and
modern, and presented to the public accurate in
substance, elegant in form, and cheap in price.

ROYAL SURREY GARDENS.

Yesterday afternoon the adjourned meeting of share-
holders in this undertaking was held at the King's
Arms, Westminster. Mr. Holmes in the chair—
to receive the report of the committee of
investigation appointed on a fornter day. The report,
which was a very lengthened document, condemned this
conduct of the directors. It was then moved
that the report be received and entered en the
minutes, and that it be printed and circulated amongst
the shareholders. An amendment was moved
as follows :—"That inasmuch as the continuance of ttia
difference between the directors and certain shareholders
is damaging t• the prosperity and i❑jurious to the inte-
rests of the company, and as four additional direc-
tors have been added to the board, making
seven directors in the whole, that the present
directors for the company, via., Messrs. Bai❑, Coppock,
Holmes, Johnson, Land, Lee, and Todd, be requested.
to make such provisional arrange'ments with title
creditors of the company, and for letting the gardens,
at they may deem expedient, and that they be re-
quested to report the result to an extraordinary general
meeting to be called for the purpose as early as conve-
nient.

Mr. COPPOCK said that if Mr. Coombe, or any other
competent person, would pledge themselves to pay the
amount at which the gardens were valued, he would
willingly refer the matter to arbitration ; but as it was,
there was nothing to refer, becaule be had never bad a
single penny from the concern. He had a great stake in
the matter, and had been a great loser, and he was not
going to be driven out by the noise and clamour of por-
eons who only represented one share. He cautioned thw
shareholders that the mortgagees night come in and sell
in a few days, if some arrangement were not come to.
As to the value of the gardens, he bad contracts for
their sale from 14,0001. to 20,0001. He considered that
they would all have their money if they chose to work
with unanimity, and they should have their money
before he touched any, bet he would not be bullied by
men whom he despised. He promised them that he
would do all in his power to help them in getting their
money, and therefore he supported the amendment.
The amendment on a show of hands was lost,
on which the directors demanded a poll. It
was ultimately arranged that the poll should be taken
on that day week, in accordance with the terms of the
deed, and at the Gardens from 3 to 6 o'clock in the after-
noon.

A motion for the removal of Messrs. Coppook,
Bain, and Holmes from the direction was carried, on
which a ballot was demanded and granted, at the 6a153,3
time and place as the other.
The meeting, which was of a stormy character
throughout, terminated shortly before six o'clock.

NEW MUSIC.

John Brown, ; Poetry and Music by Charles
Mackay. The Korth Carolina Rose ; by W. a
Montgomery. English Vocal Duets.—" Musical
Bouquet" Office, High Holborn.
The reading public has already weleomed "John
Brown" to their firesides ; and the musical public
will be glad to learn that the said John Brown
now appears garbed in round and flowing
melody. There is much of the hearty old
English school in the style of the air, and we can
pronounce the song to be a genial production, in
every way worthy of its talented author. The
" North Carolina Rose " forms an agree-
able addition to our stock of nigger
melodies. Simple harmony marks it through solo
and chorus, which, with the aid of a few chords on
the piano or guitar, yields a pleasing effect. The
Vocal English Duets are " got up" in a manner
which reflects the highest credit on the proprietors
of the "Musical Bouquet." To possess the good and
beautiful music of such works as I know a bank,"
"When alittle farm we keep," "Time has not thinned
my Flowing Hair," "All's Well," and numerous
others of the same order, at the rate of a few pence
each, is a great boon to lovers of sweet sounds.
Indeed, the whole of the music issued from this
office is of a most excellent class, comprising the
productions of the first masters, ancient and
modem, and presented to the public accurate in
substance, elegant in form, and cheap in price.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SIRS—The return of Michaelmas, which may be consi•
dered the termination of the farmer's year, has induced
me to send you the result of the average prices of wheat,
barley, and oats, for 52 weeks up to that time, viz. :

Wheat s9s. 4,1 d. per imperial quarter.
Barley 43s. 3id. ditto.
Oats

Some years ago I prepared a return commencing with
Christmas, 1845, so as to embrace the period affected by
the late Sir Robert Peel's Corn Bill, passed on the 26th
June, 1846, showing the averages as well as the highest
and lowest prices of wheat in each year ending Michael-
mas. I have continued this return up to the present
time, and as it may prove interesting to many of your
readers, I beg to annex a copy.-1 remain, Sir, your
obedient servant,

LONDON, TUESDAY, NOV. 3, 1857.

India is at present the subject to which the
public mind is necessarily directed, almost to the
exclusion of all other topics of minor interest.
We cannot, then, feel surprised that it should
form the leading topic in the vacation addresses,
by which the members of both branches of the
Legislature endeavour to keep their names before
the public during the Parliamentary recess. Men
of all parties, of all shades and varieties of political
opinion, have spoken out boldly and unequivo-
cally—and, we may add, with extraordinary
unanimity, on this point. First crush the rebel-
lion, and inflict condign punishment on those who
have not only proved unfaithful to their salt—
turning the weapons with which they had been
entrusted against their employers—but have im-
brued their hands in the blood of women and
children, under circumstances of the most horrible
cruelty and fiendish atrocity. Then place the
future Government of India on a stable and satis-
factory foundation, so that one of the brightest
jewels in the British diadem shall remain untar-
nished, and that everything practicable may be
effected to promote the welfare, happiness, and
prosperity of the people, and render them contented
with our rule. These are the objects to be ar-
rived at, and although there may be some differ-
ences of opinion as to the means best calculated
to achieve such important results, few, indeed,
concur with the morbid sentimentality the
pseudo-humanitarianism of Lord CANNING, or his
umbra, Mr. J. P. GRANT, or desire that there
should be any interference with the victorious
Generals, while carrying out the stern behests of
retributive justice.

Amon the many speakers on this interesting
and important topic was the Earl of SHAFTESBURY,
who, on Friday, presided at a public meeting at
Wimborne, Dorset, for the purpose of raising
additional contributions for the relief of the suf-
ferers by the Indian mutiny. The occasion was
appropriate, and it is due to the Noble Lord to
say that he "improved" it very felicitously.
The opinions of such a man as Lord
SHA.FTESETTRY are worthy of
notice, not
merely because he is a Peer and the Lord-
Lieutenant of a county, nor that he is closely
connected with the Premier, but because he is a
man the purity of whose motives and general
philanthropy are beyond question, and, still more
so, because he is a recognised leader amongst a
large and influential section of the community.
The Evangelical party, as it is generally termed,
look up with profound respect and esteem to the
Noble Earl. He may be regarded as giving ex-
pression to their views and feelings ; and we
rejoice to iincl that hil sentiments are unixol2

FRANCE.

PARIS, MONDAY.
In consequence of Sunday (All Saints' Day) hav-
ing been kept as a strict holiday, not one of the
Paris morning journals has appeared.
" Since the departure of the troops from the
Camp of Chalons," says the Courrier de la Cham-
pagne, "works are actively going on there. The
Emperor has despatched M. Gautherot, the hydro-
scope who rendered considerable services in Africa,
to discover wells, and it is hoped that each division
will, in future, be amply provided with water. A
canal along the rivulet of Mourmelon is spoken of.
Some hundred cows are about to be sent to the
stables lately occupied by the horses of the Cent
Gardes, in order to turn the building to account.
Finally, brick ovens are about to be constructed,
which will replace the campaigning ovens (in cast
iron) used during the late assembly of troops."
General Renault, governor-general of Algeria ad
interim, went on the 29th ult., accompanied by Ad-
miral Fourichon and the prefect of Algiers, to pay
a visit to the Eylau, line-of-battle ship. He took
with him a considerable number of Aghas and Caids,
who were anxious to inspect the fine vessel which
had so much struck their imagination at a distance.
The Arab dignitaries visited every part of the ship,
and were loud in their admiration. A salute of
seventeen guns was fired in the usual regular man-
ner, after which two broadsides were given for the
gratification of the chiefs, who had expressed a wish
to judge of the effect of a full discharge of the guns
together. The whole party afterwards wont on
board the school-ship, where a distribution of prizes
to the native pupils took place. The chiefs seemed
highly delighted with all they saw.

SCIY OFFICE, Seven .'Clock.

LAUNCH OF THE GREAT EASTERN
STEAM-SHIP.

LATEST PARTICULARS.

Everything seemed to go off smoothly and hope-
fully up to about half past two o'clock, when the
launch had proceeded so far that her stem was
moved about four feet, and her stern six feet some
inches. The strain at this time was immense
—the chains were worked into a straight horizon-
tal line by the pressure. And thousands in boats
and steamers on the water, as well as thousands
in and about the yard, were wound up to an
intense interest.

All looked well—when presently a loud crash like
thunder burst upon the gazing wonderers—for one
of the chains snapped ! and the water was in a
splash of confusion. Boats and everything were
taken so by surprise, and manifest disappointment.
What's next to be done was the universal question,
but there was no one to answer at the moment.
However, nothing daunted by the accident, Mr.
Brunel gave his orders with a calmness and forti-
tude worthy of his gigantic mind. "It will be all
right yet !" or something to that purport was his
ejaculation on the misfortune being ascertained.
It appears that the strain was so great near the
hydraulic engine and apparatus that a cast-iron
wheel near the winch suddenly snapped, and the
winch turned round with such impetuous force as
to throw four or five men, who were working at it,
right into the air, whirling them some distance.
The poor fellows fell and. were dashed against
the planks and large timbers that were
lying about the yard—one, it is said, was
killed, and the others more or less hurt. But for
this untoward accident, it was fully expected that
the launch would have been completed this
afternoon.

The damage clone to the machinery may be re-
paired in a day or two ; but the tides will "take
off," as the sailors say, thus verifying the old adage
that—

" Time nor tide,
For no man will abide."

We regret most sincerely this sad haphazard
to a project so deserving of the most complete
success. But as Rome was not built in a day,
nor the Great Eastern in many long days and nights,
there is nothing to despair of. She will be launched
in the fulness of time, and Mr. Brunets grand
conception be crowned with surpassing and unex-
ampled glory.
The rain came on heavily after the accident. It
is now said the launch will be deferred until the 2d
of December.
