June. second sortie made from the city was re-
pulsed with heavy loss; but on the 10th Of June,
which is the latest date from the camp before
Delhi, the rebels still maintained possession The
Epelish troops, even with the reenforcements on
the way, would hardly amount to six thousand.
Some important and interesting statements respect
ING tbefortfcations and seige Of Delhi will be found
in letter from London, which we print in another
column.
Meanwhile, Sir John Lawrence, commanding in
the Pupaub, receiving news Of the revolt by electric
telegraph, disarmed seven native regiments and so
maintained English authority 10 that quarter. Sir
Henry Lawrence, who had commenced disarming
some disaffected regiments before the Meerut
revolt, succeeded in doing the same thing in
Oude: but, as q general thing, though the irregu.
lars were mostly faithful, all the regular native
reo;meuts had mutnied or had been dssrmed.
There were, however, some advantages In this
General mutiny. The disafiected troops had either
scattered and vanished or had marched on to Delhi;
and the Queens soldiers, thus relieved from the
necessity of watching doubtful regiments were left
f,.s 70 operate in the field. Wherever conflicts
had occurred, the European troops had maintained
their wonted superiority; and, notwithstanding the
rebel force in Delhi far outnunbered them and
were abundaDty supplied with artillery, though
mot with art;llerymen the fall Of that city was
daily looked for Meanwhile, retinforcements were
arriving at Calcutta from Ceyon, Burmsh and
Madras Two regiments just returned from Persia
had made their appearance very opportuIely at
Bombay, and had been sent BY steam to Calcutta
the European inhabitants Of which city had been
organized into volunteer corps By way of defense
against an apprehended Mohammedan in'urrectiOn.
The troops on the way to China were to be inter-
cepted. while come ten or fifteen Thousand more
troops had been dispatched from England. But until
news arrives of the fall Of Delhi and the dispersion Of
the large rebel force there collected the authority Of
the English in India must be considered rather pro-
carious. If there was to be revolt, the EDSish,

THE STORY OF THE BATTLE

y soldier was wounded in one Of the
battles of the Crimea, and was carried
out of the field; he felt that his wound
was mOrtal-iiat life was quickly ebbing
away-and he said to his comrades who
were carrying him:
Put me down; do not take the trou-
bic to carry me any further; am dy-
ing"
They then put him down and returned
to the field. A few minutes after an off
/ Ger saw the man weltering in his blood
and asked him if be could do anything
for him.
" Nothing, thank you"
Shall 1 get you little water" said
the kind hearted officer.
" No thank you am dying"

Shall l write to your friends ?"

from Germany is a musical bed, which

Flaps it in Elysium." 1t Is an invention
Of mechanic in Bohemia, and Is so con-

soft and gentle air Of Alberto be played
which continues long enough TO lull the
most wakeful to sleep. At the head is
a clock, the hand of which being placed
at the hour the sleeper wishes 10 rise,
when the time arrives, the bed plays a
march OF Spontoni, with drums and sym
bals, and, in short, with noise enough to
Souse the seven sleepers.
