The Express. — 1863-10-21 (London, England)

INDIA.  We have received files of journals from Bombay to the 29th, and from Calcutta to the 18th Sept., with telegraphic reports from Calcutta through Bombay to September 25. The P. and 0. S. Benares, with the English mails of the 26th August and 3rd September, arrived in Bombay harbour on the 24th of the latter month.  The 3rd Baths had been despatched from Labors ou an urgent requisition by telegram from Murree, to Sittani, the seat of disaffection on toe northwest frontier.  Otders have been issued to stop all leave of absence to officen of corp. stationed in the Punjaub for the prasent, owing to the disaffected state of the frontier.  The Governor-General was to leave Simla on the 15th October for Sealkote, where he would hold a darhar and proceed thence to Peshawur. He was to arrive about the middle of January at Lahore, and there hold his council.  The • alleged to be the Nana Sahib turns out to be a gooro, or high priest of the Mahrattas ; and he now awaits the final orders of government for his disposal. There is a good deal of excitement on the subject, some blaming the government for allowing themselves to be "sold," some laughing at its ridiculous position : some maintem that the prisoner deserves hanging for acting as a decoy to divert attention from the great Grit minaL  At Ellichpoor a murderous attack bad been made on Mrs. Maoqueid, the wife of Captain Maoquoid, of the sth Regiment, H.C. The buy (for he is only about 18 or 20 years of age) who committed it had been taken on trial as a servant, and had been iu Captain Macquoid's service about three weeks or a month, but was discharged about two or three days before the ocenrrenoe happened ; he took his pay on the let, and left without any apparent reluctance. The neat morning the ruffian walked into the house 'about 6 o'clock, and taking Captain Macquoid's sword, proceeded upstairs to the bedroom, where he attacked Mrs. Macquoid when asleep, and before she managed to escape inflicted several severe blows and cute with the back of the sword. One of the cute divided the bone of the left arm completely, and another severed the small bone of the right leg just below the knee joint. Every time she attempted to rise he brought her down with a cut. The ayah happened to come in at the time, and gave the alarm ; the ruffian immediately lied out, but was pursued by Captain Macquoids horse-keepers, who were armed with spears. He was kept at bay in • muddy ditch near the cowpound, and there after a little resistance, he was so severely pierced that he died almost instantly.' His body wail burned by the authority of some oue of the station officers. The principal cause which is ascribed to the man for committing theta fiendish act is, that he was some days previously ordered to be slippered for haviug smoked ganja in the vicinity of the lady's bungalow' and he took advantage of the gentian:lase.; absence to have his revenge. The Indian papers are much oorsipied with the coming Crawley trial. ThePoolui Oteareeratates that 52 non-commissioned officers and privates of the 6th Dragoons were going home ou the court-martial hominess, besides several officers. Major Champion proceeds in charge of the official documents couneeted with the cam, and also as a willows. The Tunes India and some other papers of character maintain that. English opinion has been altogether misled, and that Ociionel Crawley will come well out of the "investigation.
