DEkTn OF .THE HERO OF LUCKNOW.
General Sir John Eardley Wilmot Inglis, tho
hero Of Lucknow in the Sepoy rebellion, died
on the 9th Of September, at Hamburg, Germai
nv. It will be remembered that this officer
was in command Of the garrison at Lucknows
and defended that position with d very small
force Of English soldiers, already enfeebled BY
privation and the disease Incident to hostile
climate, against an enormously dispropoytioned
force Of mutineers. For that noble defence he
was made knight Commander Of the Bath.
Subsequently he was appointed to. the com
mand Of the British troops In the. lohfsn ISL
ands; but his health, shaken by the lohg anx'
ie,y and desperate privation, of Lucknow, lan-
guished until bis medical advisers thought it
their duty to recommend that he should try

On the 10Th inst, Commodore Renshaw
attacked the rebel batteries at Galveston, Tex.
and, after brief combati ''repossessed" .he
town. The rebels, who undertook the de-
fence Of the place, behaved almost as cowardly
as Moore and Lowell. They did not stop to
fire dozen rounds. The American flag was
raised over the city, which is now held by a
couple Of gunboats. :.
Some days afterwards he rebels approached
the city, for the purpose, as was thought, oil
plundering it, but the people went out to NEE,
them, and the thieves fed.
AT last accounts the railroad bridge was un
touched, and the citizens of Galveston were
living in comparative safety.

his right hand upon log Of wood, took a
sharp axe and deliberately cut it off just below

still not satisfied he struck again, taking it of

Our advices from the army of The,
Potomac. IN. .l:---.-.-s,rss- udvance IS
being pushed forward very rapidly,
and with the utmost success. General
Pleasanton occupied Uppervillo on
Monday afternoon, after spirited en-
gagement of about four hours, in which
we had none killed but several wound
ed. This is only tour miles from Ash
by's Gap, which the rebels were en-
deavoring to hold-all the other Gaps
this side being in our possession. There
was some force of the enemy in front
of Smokers Gap, on the left bank of
the Shenandoah, apparently intending
to dispute the passage of our forces,
but we do not learn that any fighting
occurred there. There were rumors
that the rebels were again cndeavor-
ing to cross into Maryland at Dobbs-
vile, but they proved to be entirely
unfounded. In fact we hear from our
special correspondents, that the gener-
al impression in the army was that all
the apparant movements of tho enc.
my were merely feints, to cover the
retreat of the main rebel army towards
Gordonville, it being pretty we'll as
certaincd that it was on the cast side
Of the Blue Ridge, moving in that d.
rection.
Meantime the news from Gen. Sig
els army is Of the most significant and
important character, leading us to
hope that the flank of the enemy has
been successfully turned, and that
they will not be able to escape with
out great, and probably a decisive
battle. Our cavalry OH Monday eve.
ming drove the rebels out of Thorough.
fare Gap, and Gen. Schurz's Division
advanced and took possession of it.
The other divisions of Sigel's force,
under Stahl and Van Steinwehr were
within supporting distance, and oul
cavalry also held Budsland Mills, AL
die, and the country between the lat
ter point and the front of Gen. Sigel'l
advance. 1t has also been ascertained
within day or two that the fine di
vision under Gen. Sickles, is advanc
ing along the Orange and Alexandra
Railroad in the direction Of Gordons
vile.
Gen. Sigel has been indisposed dur
