A FAMILIAR VOICE FROM THE ToMBs.-
At public dinner following the Essex
County Agricultural Fair in Newburyport,
Mass, on the 1st inst, that defunct politi.
clan Caleb Gushing made another spasmo-
die effort to turn round in his coffin. Hav-
ing been invited to deliver some remarks
befitting SO festal an occasion, he alluded
TO the Kansas difficulty as "petty from
tier squable," unworthy of the national i'm
portance which had been given to it. This
alluslon (says the Boston Transcript was
received with mingled applause and Kisses,
showing that large portion Of the audi
ence did not regard the matter so lightly
as the ex-Attorney General.

left Allahabad the English troops before
Delhi were scarcely able to hold their own
although always beating the mutineers in
every attack, they had slightly receded
from their original position. 1t takes near
ly so days for troops to get to Delhi from
Calcutta. Mr. Hay thinks the news of the
mutiny at Dinapore is bad news, because
it shows that the communication between
Calcutta and Delhi may be interrupted.
There is one thing, however, to be consid-
cred; the mutineers have no guns in the
neighborhood.
Mr. Hay thinks the issuing of the greas-
ed cartridges to have been great mistake.
The intelligent leaders of the mutineers
well understood that the creased cartridges
were withdrawn, and that the Government
explanations were satisfactory; but the illit-
crate natives never were convinced that
the outrage on their religion was discontin-
ued. The writer asked Mr.. Hay if he had
any doubt as to the ultimate defeat of the
mutineers. He said he had not the slight
est doubt of their defeat. There are about
2l,ooo European troops now up in the
Northwest Provinces. The Sikhs, he be-
lleves, will be faithful; at least they have
no sympathy with the Mahommedans and
Hindoos. The missionaries who were kill
ed in Delhi were English church missiona-
ries. MIR. Hay believes that four of his
brother American missionaries, with their
families, were massacred by Futtyghur.-
Mr.. Hay is connected with the Presbyteri-
an Board.
