EDNIONSTONE. Al I ahabad, March 3, MS.  The following is the proclaniation issued by Lord Canning, upon the fall of Lucknow, to which reference was made in both Routes of Parbament:—  PRoCLANUTION.  ' The army of his Excellency the Commander-in-Chief is in possession of Lucknow, and the city lies at the mercy of the British government, whose autholity it has for nine months rebelliously defied and resisted. ' This resistance, began by a mutinous soldiery, has found support from the inhabitants of the city and of the province of Onde at large. Many who owed their prosperity to the British government, as well as those who believed themselves aggrieved by it, have joined in this bad cause, and have ranged themselves with the enemies of the state.  'Thee have been guilty of a great crime, and have subjected themselves to a jost retribution. • The capital of their country is now once inure in the hands of the British troops.  'From this day it will be held bye force which nothing can withstand and the authority of the government will be carried into every corner of the province.  'The time, then, 'has come at which the Right Hon. the Governor-General of India deems it right to make known the mode in which the British government will deal with the talookdars, chiefs, and landholders of Oude and their followers. The that care of the Governor General will be to reward those who have been steadfast in their allegiance at a time when the authority of the government was partially overborne, and who have proved this by the support and assistance which they have given to British officers.

'A proportionate measure of reward and honour according to their deserts will be conferred upon others in whcse favour like claims may be established to the satisfaclion of the government.  'The Governor-General further proclaims to the people of Oude that, with the above-mentioned exception, the proprietary right in the soil of the province is confiscated to the British government, which will dispose of that right in such manner as it way seem fitting.  ' To those talookdars, chiefs, and landholders, with their followers, who shall make immediate submission to the Chief Commissioner of Oude, surrendering their -arms and obeying his orders,the Right Hon.the GovernorGeneral promisesthat their lives and honour shall be cafe, provided that their hands are unstained with English blood murderously shed. 'But, as regards any further indulgence, which may be extended to them, and the condition in which they may hereafter be placed, they must throw themselves upon the justice and mercy of the British government. 'To those among them who shall promptly come forward and give to the Chief Commissioner their support in the restoration of peace and order this indulge.,ce will be large, and the Governor-General will be ready to view liberally the claims which they may that require to a restitution of their former rights. As participation in the murder of Englishmen and English women will esolude than) who are guilty of it from all mercy, so will those who bare protected Euip.
