Regiments of Bengal lnSntry muinied on the 18th
Of NAV at Nussecrabad, in the bombay presidency,
oose IN the dominions of the Nizam, beyond the
Vindbva mountains and the Ncrbuddha river.
Tbe;r example was not followed by the
Bombay army, which to man remains true
"to the CompaDy's salt " as the phrase runs
among them. The Nusseeraoad mutneers, alter
REFUSING the loyal Lancers, abandoned the station
and marched away, as it was said, in the direction
of Delhi; but We learn by the supplement of The
Bombou Times that they had turned southwark aud
tried TO excite a revolt in the NiZams dominiOns.
Should they succeed in this attempt now, when the
Nizam has just died, they might become more dan
eerous to the East India Company than their com
rades higher up, at and around Delhi, where
among all the active chiefs, not One except the
small Rance (Princess) of Jhans has made common
cause with them In the Punjaub, the danger was
oreaf enough but il was met by energetic measures.
On the 18th of MAY, the 57th and 45th Infantry
mutnied at Ferozepoor, on the Sutlel, but after a
two days combat they were dlsarmed. AT Null
tan the Sepoys have been prevented from breaking
out into open violence only through the vigilance Oh
the authorities: at Mcean Nicer, three regiments
(he 10th Goth and 49th) had to be disarned on the
idtb of NAV; still the seditious spirit was not yet
broken, for the last dispatches from Lahore (June

were able 10 reach Delhi, where, by the inexplica-
BILE delay of Gen. Arson, the rebel troops had suffi-

strength Their long impunity shook the loyalty OF
most Of the regiments, some OF whom as Tor IN

at Kurnaul, the expedition against Delhi was hurried
On, and the English troops had great success Oh
the 9Th in battle offered by the rebels, who lost 20
guns: still, on the 18th the town was not yet taken
However though there cannot be any doubt as to
the ultimate result the Bengal army has ceased TO
exist, about 81 regiments having mutinied or been
disarmed up to the last dates and great uneaslness
prevailing as to many more OF them. mus tnere
are but very few native troops who can be trusted,
and the defenses of India are in precar0us state
Sir Colin Campbell will have great task to per-
tolm, viz: to reOrganize not only the East India
Companys army, but all the military system in
India.
The best account in the English papers about
these events is the following summary when chP
from The Morning Chronicle:
at will be remembered that the last Overland Mai
brought intelligence that the mutneers Of heerut,
after committing the most horrible crimes there mar
ocrpg the Europeans and their families aud burning
distance by small body of European troops. The
narrative Of events proceeds as iolloSs At Delhi,
the mutineers arrived the InsrniDg OF Monday the
nth May and the native infantry regiments there at
54,b and 74th Regiments. The artillery sd Company

the movement most reluctantly but eventually con-
septed TO act with them. The puppet Ming was theh
