FYZABAD. The following extracts are from the letter of an officer holding civil charge of the district of Fyzabad, in the province of Oude, dated Allahabad, Aug. 4 : "Long ore this reaches you you will have heard all about this terrible emeute. It has been indeed an awful outbreak, and it is not improbable that things will get wo so before they get better. " I arrived at Fyzabad on the 9th of May, and hoped I had got steadily settled for a long time. On the morning of the lth June, Orr, Thurburn, and I had to ride for it. " We went on from bad to worse, getting more and more unsettled, and before long it became painfully evident that there must be a grand smash For days before the mutiny all but a few, who would not see, knew what was coming, and I asked Rajah Man Singh to tike charge of the women and children ; which he at once agreed to do. " Soon after the beginning of our troubles an order came trona Lucknow to arrest Man Singh G— was at FyzAbad, and he carried out the order in spite of my urgent remonstrance and written protest. I got permission to release him just in time, and started the ladies off to Shahgunj. Mri. L 'nnox and her daughter, Mrs. Moan and Mrs. Mill remained at Fyzabad. The very next night I think the tro)ps mutinied. The irregulars (15th Irregular Cavalry, one troop), were very bad— wanted to murder every officer. The Artillery and Gth Oude Irregulars were also bad ; the 22d Bengal Native Infantry the least bad of all. After a long altercation it was determined that the officq-s should be allowed to go. They went off in boats ; but just opposite Beguingunj they were seen by the 17th N 1., mutineers from Azimghur, who gave chase, and here pcor Goldney, Bright, and a sergeant kpear to have been shot, Mill, Currie, and Parsons drowned, baying left the boats and attempted to escape inland. The rest of the party got to the Tebsildarre of Kuptamgunj, where they were well treated, and received 50 rupees to prosecute their journey to Goruckpore. At a large bazaar called Mahadewa, a large body of armed men s tilled forth, and, without the slightest provocation, cut the unfortunate fellows t pieces. Hen English, Lindesly, Cautley, Thomas, and Ritch;p, with two sergeaot4, fell. One artillery sergeant (Busher) alone escaped. Another party—O'Brien, Gordon, Colli son, Anderson, and Percival—changed their boat and got a covered one at Ajoodhia ; they lay perdu, and were not observed by the 17th N.I. Hiding in daytime and travelling at night, they managed to reach Gopalpore in the Goruckpore district, where a powerful Rajah took them under his protection and forwarded them to Dinapore. A third patty consisted of Morgan and his wife, Fowle, Ouieley, and Daniell. They were robbed, imprisoned, and sufGrad great hardship, alcaos, starvation, but they, too, eventually escaped. I must now return to my own party. The troop. mutinied on the night of the Bth, but did not come down to the city till the morning of the 9,h of June. Orr and. Thurburn slept at my gateway— Bradford, being obstinate, slept at the Dilkoosha. We had about 100 armed invalids. We tried ,to tai leviosi and, with Man -Singh's co-operation,
