INDORE.  The following is an extract of a letter from Lieutenant A. R. Hutchinson, Bheel agent and Political Assistant to the Governor-General at Bhopawur, -, clearly proving Holkar's fidelity : " Mhow Fort, July 26.  " On the Ist July the troops at Indore revolted. The Resident and most of the English inhabitants eFlectet their escape; but the clerks of the telegraph - kpartment and in the offices, with their families, ettft.re .1 fearfully ; 34 Christians were murdered in col I blood. The details of this revolt I have not herd. On the 2d July, at 3 p.m., a servant of Colonel Stockley's arrived breathless from Indore with.the awful news that Holkar had turned against ns, and that the European residents had been murdered. My escort, consisting of 30 men of the Bheel corps, was in itself insufficient for any defene, so I determined to take them to IndurpOre, and there to make a stand. I accordingly left de ir Bhopawur with my wife and child for Indurpo:e. It was a trying hour, but we committed ourselves to God. At Indttrpore we found people in the greatest alarm and excitement. The men— about 200 of the Bheel corps—seemed determined , to defend the station with their lives ; so, after wri ins to the Resident at Baroda for aid, we ret red for the night. At 2 a.m. of the 3d I was awoke by an express from Dhar to say that some Ma' ocriedan troops there had revolted, and were in irching in force for the destruction of Bhopawur. I went to the lines to ascertain the temper of the snarl, but to my bitter disappointment there were only some 30 left, and thaw by their manner sgetned anything but willing to defend us. Seeing this, we had nothing left but to disguise ourselves mid. fly. Accordingly, at 4.a.re. of the 3d, Mrs. biltockley, four children, and an ayah got into a common cow-cart, C---, baby, myself, and ayah into another, Dr. Chisholm on horseback, and we )eft ID durpore with the intention of making for the JAbwA territory. " 1 hoped to reach Para at nightfall, where I bad (*Jared my servants to Meet me. We travelled all day, which was, most fortunately, cool. At 2 P.m. we halted to rest. As we started two men ' carne from the village Charawna to inquire who we were. Our servants said we were Parsee merehants going to Baroda. On we went again, and acit„B P-in. we were startled by the news that a party r 443 and foot hail just arrived from Amjheera ~ a " caDture. At this terrible news all Mrs. with .un.3°72lants deserted her, but ours remained and to and myself determined to keep -watch, ..,jass_ to defend ourselves to the last. el terrible night ; but God had mercy ups '" us and brought us deliverance from our ene)n'e:, for during the ni,,,,htthe Bheels (we were in the 'el :11, wa, territory) gave the alarm to•,.thlie nearest_ statiou, and daylight saw a pityeuoeid Para, under Soojan Singh, who rescued horse from took us to Pora ; however, to . "tilY the Arnjliei ra pole, he insistA on our showing..what property we had. Our carts were accordingly searched. I °Herr d a horseman to go to Jabwa, and to ac_ qii tint the chief with our situation ; we went Pp rt. At 4 p.m. a deputation arrived from Jabwa eyeort us to that place. The head man of a village where we halted gave us his own dinner, and we sinyto I again at 10 p. nn., escorted by 100 Bheels.
