TIIE LATE MUTINY—GENERAL ORDER.
(Fi-om the Bengal Hurharti.)
The general orders of the Commander-in-Chief re-
ceived yesterday afternoon contain the official announce-
ment of the finding and sentence of the court-martial on
the mutineers of the 64th Regiment, with the Com-
mander-in-Chief's remarks thereon.

REMARKS BY THE COMMANDER-IV-CHIEF.
"It is with the deepest sorrow that the Commander-
in-Chief promulgates to the army the foregoing charges
and sentences against thirty-eight sepoys of the 64th
Regiment Native Infantry ; buti however deep the feel-
ing of regret on hisl4:xcellency's mind, it is his determina-
tion to vindicate the discipline of the army, by causing.
to be carried into effect, on the principal culprits, the ex-
emplary and just sentence passed by the Court, and by
sulu-cting the remainder of the prisoners to other severe
punishments.

" The chief cause of this disgraceful mutiny
appears to have been the disappointment of the,
men at not receiving a much higher rate of pay
than they were entitled to by regulation and
the orders of Government ; and it • is shown in
evidence that they were promised certain specific advan-
tages. This point will form the subject of further serious
investigation. But the Commander-in-Chief eannat too
earnestly impress upon the army at large, that no hope
or expectation of pecuniary advantages, from whatever
quarter held out, can for a moment justify the military
act of refusing to receive the regulated pay ; and most
especially that there can be no possible extenuation of
open and violent mutiny, such as has occurred at Shikar-
pore, whatever may be the circumstances of the case.
" The firmness and management of Major-General
Hunter, in restoring this regiment eventually to a sense
of its duty, have met with the highest approbation of
the Commander-in-Chief. A proffer of pardon having
been made to the regiment at Sukkur, on condition of
their giving up the ringleaders in the mutiny, and bring-
ing them to conviction, which has been fulfilled, his Ex-
cellency has now only the painful but necessary task of

disposing of the sentences jassed by the court.
" The sentence of death on the following prisoners,
sepoys Sewsahai Sing, of the 3d company ; Juggernauth
Doobey, of the Bth company ; Sewumbar Pandy, of the
Bth company • Kamkissoon, of the 3d company ;
Bieruth Sing, of the 3d company ; and Sewpaul Sing, of
the Bth company, will be carried into effect, by their
being generally hollered by the neck till they are dead ;
under instructions whichi will be transmitted to his Ex-
cellency Major-General Sir C. ,T. Napier, G.C.8., com-
manding the troops in Sinde.
" The sentence of death on the following prisoners,
sepoys, Bholar Sing, grenadier company, Morewunt
Sing, and Purrusram hisser, of the lst company, Bul-
kurrum Sing, of the 3d company ; Chine Roy and Kun-
nio Opudeah, of the sth company ; and Ramyad Sing,
of the Bth company, is commuted to imprisonment, with
hard labour, for life, in each of their eases.

" The sentence of death on the following prisoners,
sepoys, Dhunput Sing and Bhowanydeen (Ist), of the
sth company ; Pulwan Sing, Ramhouse Opudesh, Sew-
buccus Sing, Meer Khan, Mahabul Sing, Pursaud Sing,
Ulleebuccus Khan, and Munsraje Khan, all of the Bth
company, is commuted to imprisonment, with hard
labour, for thirteen years, in each of their cases.
" The sentence of death on the following' prisoners,
sepoys Shaiek Moharan, grenadier company, Shaiek
Dhamoo, Bbuggun and Juggoo, of the 2d company;
Ilurdeal Sing, of the 3d company; Shair Khan and
llingha Khau.of the 7th company, is commuted to im-
prisonment, with hard labour, for ten years, in each of
their cases.

" The sentence of death on the following prisoners,
sepoys Goolab Sing, Madarbux Khan, and Ghunsam
Ovvustee, of the 6th cornpan3 ; Sea rattan Sing and Shaiek
Mucdoombux, of the 7th company, is commuted to im•
prisonrnent, with hard labour, for seven years, in each of
their cases.

" The sentence of death on the following prisoners,
sepoys Dishram and Kassee Sing, of the 7th company,
and Sownaraiu Hisser, of the Sth company, is commuted
to imprisonment, with hard labour, for five years, in
each of their eases.

"The Commander-in-Chief is pleased to direct the
discharge of Bissoon Sing, sepoy, of the 7th company,
notwithstanding his acquittal : because he is proved to
have instigated other men to demand increased pay, and
because his character is bad.

" The foregoing order is to be read and explained at
the head of every regiment, troop, and company in the
Bengal service.
"Di order of his Excellency the Commander-in-Chief.
" J. R. LUMLEY, Major• General, Adjutant-
General of the Army."
