[ GRATIS.] PRINTED AND PUBLISHED BT SUNDAY, AUGUST 9, 1857. MR WILLIAM CLEMENT, 170, STRAND. [ GRATIS.] V THE GREAT MILITARY INSURRECTION IN INDIA. [ From the Bombay Timet of July 1.] It is extremely difficult to compress within the limits of our summary the details which have reached us in the last fortnight concerning the mutiny ofthe Bengal army. It must suffice to say that the rebellion is universal in that division of the Indian forces, and that it has been thought necessary to disarm the • erv corps ( the 70Ch Native Infantry) which was publicly thanked by the Governor- General in person for its loyalty only three weeks a « o, while the 6th Regiment Native Infantry at Allahabad, which had rivalled it in its expressions of attach- ment to the Government, has risen upon its officers, aud foufly murdered them. , , „ It is with deep gratification that we turn for a moment from the consideration of these painful events to notice the fact that not a symptom of disaffection has appeared as yet in the armies either of Madras or Bombay, which manifest the most perfect loyalty in the presence of this dangerous example; and which renel indignantly every attempt that has been made to seduce them from their allegiance by emissaries from the Bengal troops. A statement found its way into the Calcutta papers some time ago to the effect that the 10th Madras Native In- fantry had refused to receive the cartridges m Burmah, Out we have looked in vain for any confirmation of the news. Let our readers giance down the subjoined list of regiments which have either mutinied, or been disbanded or disarmed within the last two months, and they will probably better un- derstand the crisis that has overtaken us than by any comment Regt. of Native Infantry, disbandedat Barrackpore, April3. 7th Rest, of Oude Irregulars, mutinied at Lucknow, May 1. 34th Begt. of Native Infantry, seven companies, mutinied at Lucknow, May 5. , . , , ,, 3d Rsgt. of Light Cavalry, mutinied at Meerut, May 10. 11th Regt. ot Native Infantry, mutinied at Meerut, May 10. 20th Regt. of Native Infantry, mutinied at Meerut, May 10.

The regiments which have not openly mutinied have ceased to be trusted and are watched with much anxiety. The fall of Delhi, which is still delayed, and which we await with intense desire, will doubt- less do more to quench the spirit of this rebellion than any mea- sure that can be auopted by Government. The Delhi Raj has a powerful hold upon the memory of India still; aud while the city remains iu the hands of the rebels the country will be un- settled from the Himalayas to Cape Comorin. We are looking with much anxiety towards the Nizam's country, the 1st Regi- ment of Cavalry having revolted at Aurungabad, and a rising oc- curred at Hyderabad. Our readers are already in possession of the facts connected with the disbandments, disarmings, and mutinies of the troops indicated in the above list, as far down as the disarming at Meean Meer, and our attention must be mainly directed to the events connected with the remainder of the list. The following are the stations at which the troops have broken out into open violence up to the date ef our advices :— • Meerut ' Nusseerabad Jullundur * Delhi * Neemucli Azimghur Perozepore Benares Futtehghur Allyghur * Hansi Jaunpore Reorkee * Hissar * Bareilly Murdaun * Jhansi * Shahjehanpore. Lucknow Mehidpore We have indicated by an asterisk those stations at which the women and chifdren of our countrymen have fallen into the hands of the soldiery, and it is better to draw a veil over the barbarities they endured from these merciless fiends. At the remainder of these stations the officers were murderously as- saulted, the bungalows fired, and at most of them the treasuries looted. Our columns will be found to contain many detailed accounts of the Meerut, Delhi, Lucknow, Nusseerabad, and Neemuch massacres, reported in few words by last mail, and we pass on to the consideration of the mutiny at Benares :— At five o'clock on the evening of the 4th the brigade was ordered out for the purpose of disarming the 37th Regiment, who were known to be disaffected and in correspondence with people in the city. The men were ordered to appear on parade without their arms. Some companies obeyed and did so, but others refused to give up their arms and commenced firing at their officers. This appeared to be the signal, for the rest of the regiment then rail to the bells of arms; the guns, however, began to pour in the grape so sharply upon them, that they were glad to beat a retreat; only a few of the most determined rebels still kept up a fire from the right wing at the officers. The Sikh Regiment all this time remained quiet on parade, passive spec- tators of the scene, but at this crisis they loaded by order of Colonel Gordon, An ominous Ghange then came over them. The cavalry first turned, and then with the Sikhs poured in a delibe- rate volley on the officers standing around, three of whom fell. The artillery in return gave them a shower of grape, which sent them flying off the parade. About 100 of the mutineers were killed and 200 wounded; the rest bolted, throwing down their arms. The mutineers of the Sikh regiment tried to capture the guns, and were thrice re- pulsed with great loss. Only a few men of the irregular cavalry and Sikh regiment stood firm; all the rest mutinied; their dis- comfiture was complete, thanks to the bravery of 180 European soldiers, who defended the guns, and charged and shot down the mutineers. Eight only, instead of 35 as reported, of these brave soldiers were killed and wounded. The lives of the civilians and their families who had taken refuge in the col- lector's kutchery were saved by the presence and noble exertions of Soorut Singh, a Sikh prisoner. He it was who went among the Sikhs of the treasury guard, and prevented them from rising after they had heard how the men of their corps had been cut up, and by his influence they were kept at their post until the next morning, when the treasure was removed to cantonments under an escort of Europeans. The portion of the Sikh corps over the treasury remained staunch. Concerning the mutiny at Hansi and Hissar of the Hurreeanah Light Infantry and 4th Regiment Irregular Cavalry, we are without full particulars. Great atrocities seem, however, to have been perpetrated upon the unfortunate women and children who fell into the hands of the soldiers. We have referred above to the mutiny of the 1st Regiment Nizam's Cavalry at Aurungabad, which took place on the 16th inst. We are happy to believe that no Europeans were killed, however, and General Woodburn's moveable column, which fell in with the mutineers on the 23d, utterly routed and dis- persed them. The mutiny ofthe Bhurtpore Levies, under the command of Captain Nixon, and that of the Malwah Contingent of Mehid- pore, have come to supplement our difficulties. The former troops were supposed to be actuated by the best feelings towards us, forming part of the body guard of his Highness the Maha- rajah of Gwalior. " Immediately the news of the Neemuch dis- turbances reached Captain Nixon he set out with the Bhurtpore Levies, accompanied by Captain Gore Munbee, of the Bombay Engineers, who, though senior in army rank to Captain Nixon, waived all etiquette in the matter, and placed himself under that officer's command. They had only proceeded a couple or three marches, when the men refused to be taken against the mutinous Bengal sepoys, and set the authority of Captains Nixon and Munbee at defiance. These officers had to fly for their lives, and in doing so passed through districts where they were frequently fired upon by the insurgents, and, after many hair- breadth escapes, were fortunate enough to get safely to Bhurtpore, where they now are, neither of them having, we re- joice to say, sustained any injury." The infantry and artillery of the Malwah Contingent are said to have remained loyal, the cavalry mutinying on the march to Neemuch and murdering their officers, Lieuts. Brodie and Hunt. At Allahabad the mutiny broke out on the 4th inst., when the " loyal" 6th Regiment, which had volunteered to proceed to Delhi against the rebels only a few days before, became the assassins of their own officers, and then marched off to join the mutineers, after burning the church and every bungalow in the place, aud looting the treasury. The whole number slaughtered amounted to 26, and among them we find the names of Captain Birch, the Fort Adjutant, and the following officers:— Lieutenant Innes, ex- Engineer ; Lieutenant Alexander, 2d Light Cavalry: Captain Pluukett, 6th Native Infantry; Lieutenants Stewart and Hawes, ditto; Ensign Munro ( doubtful); Ensigns Scott, Cheek, Dodd. Smith, Way, and Smith ( doing duty with the regiment). The Irregular Cavalry and Ferozepore regiment are said to have remained loyal, and the fort being garrisoned by a few English troops is probably safe. Not an European, how- ever, remains outside the walls, and the last accounts from the city portray the most frightful state of matters there. A cor- espondent of the Phoenix writes:— „ ,, " Allahabad is in a most wretched state. All the houses are in a dilapidated state from cannonading. Not a single bungalow has been left untouched, nearly all are burnt down to the ground. Upwards of 3,000 prisoners have liberated themselves, and are committing all sorts of outrages. Not a siugle European or Christian remains outside the fort. It is to be feared that few have escaped. Mr. Areher, the commissioner's head clerk, is the only person savtd in his and his brother's family, Fee- roomull, the great banker, has been plundered, and his house is in a most ruinous state. The Dacoits have obtained their object everywhere by attempts at incendiarism first, and while tne people were engaged in quenching the fire the Dacoits made away with the booty. The way from Gopeegunge and J hoonsee is occupied by a class of banditti who have plundered innumer- able people and made some of them return to Mirsapore with a rag only on their backs." ... , At Jullundur the mutiny broke out on the 8th, but we know little beyond the fact that the rebels were driven out of the camp with considerable loss, and were being pursued and cut up by a squadron of cavalry, some European foot, and guns, and a body of horsemen belonging to the Allowallah Rajah. A correspondent of the Hitrkaru thus describes the mutiny or the 17th Regiment of Native Infantry at Azimghur:— . " On the night ef the 3d the 17th Native Infantry, stationed at Azimghur, mutinied. An escort of 80 Sowars of the 13th Irregular Cavalry brought in on that date seven and a half lacs at treasure from Gorruckpore; it was determined to continue its route to Benares, where the presence of some companies of the 10th Queen's would secure it to the Government. Some days previously the authorities— military and civil, had been occupied in throwing up a breastwork round the kutchery. This, however, was not quickly completed. The escort and treasure moved about six p. m. At nine p. m. all the men m the lines some distance from the kutchery broke out, killed their quartermaster, and wounded the quartermaster- sergeant so severely that he, wherever he is, cannot live; slightly wounded the havildar- major, and killed the kotwal of the city. The officer on guard at the fort at the kutchery hearing the shots and having a guard of picked and trusty men, as lie thought, turned them out, and desired the golandauzes to make the guns ready for business. They refused this, told him they would not fire or allow the guns to be fired on the regiment, and that all the officers and ladies would be spared; that they wanted the guns to get at the treasure, now some two hours and a halt march ahead. I do not learn that any other persons were murdered, though some bungalows were set on fire. About 27 persons reached Ghazeepore yesterday in a terrible plight, after having toiled over 44 miles of road. I learn also that some men of the same regiment escorted Maj. Burroughes. the cU/ icerm command, to Ghazeepore; he is very much respected by the good men of them. What became of the treasure is at present unknown- Guns were heard during the night of the 3d in the direction which the escort had taken, but tha troopers had pro- mised the sepoys to cut them to pieces if they came to seize the boxes, and they were to be joined by a reinforcement of 50 more from the same regiment from the Benares side. There has pro- bably been a fight for it— a day will determine all." The mutiny of this regiment is full of subject for grave reflec- tion. It is abundantly clear that the cartridge question had nothing to do with it in this case. The men were possessed with the lawless desire for plunder, and the officers were in com- mand of a set of undisciplined scoundrels, who were ready to shoot them or to cut their throats if they stood in the way of their realising it. The illustration which this incident affords of the state of the Bengal army it is impossible to heighten by any comment, and we place it as it is before our readers. At Jhansi, where was stationed the left wing of the 12th Regi- ment of Native Infantry, the mutiny broke out on the 5th inst. There is or was an intrenched magazine at this place defended by two guns, and the few Europeans in the place made good their retreat into it for the time. We heard yesterday, however, of the massacre of the whole of these unhappy victims under the usual circumstances of atrocity which have characterised these_ fiendish murders throughout. Our correspondent writes from Kamptee, June 20, " News has just reached us that the mutineers at Jhansi have taken the fort, where all the Europeans had taken refuge, and murdered all, men, women, and children. Among others Skene, deputy commissioner, and his family ; Gordon, 10th Madras Native Infantry, assistant- commissioner, killed; 21 of the scoundrels, before they got into the fort, killei him. Jubbulpore still quiet, but the 52d Bengal Native In- fantry there say if they hear of any European troops coming there they will proceed to extremities. The officers sleep in the men's lines— poor victims! Nothing has been done there. All that we know concerning the rising at Jaunpore is that the cavalry regiment stationed there had mutinied and murdered their commanding officer— Lieut. Mara." The disarming of the troops at Calcutta, Barrackpore, and Mooltan was simply a measure of prudence, called for unques- tionably in the present emergency, and probably hastened at the two former places by Governmental intelligence which has not been made public. Wesimply know that the ex- King of Oude is implicated in the business, and has been arrested by the Government, and all his retainers, some 700 or 800 men, dis- armed. A fakeer, who was sentenced to ba hanged at Calcutta for tampering with the troops, is said to have made the revela- tions which have led to this important conviction, long enter- tained by us, aud now we imagine well ascertained. The mutiny at Bareilly seems to have been a very tragic affair. All the bungalows are burnt to the ground, and we are in un- certainty, up to the time of going to press, of the fate of forty Europeans known to have been there, of whom nearly one- half were women and children. The outbreak at Shahjehanpore seems also to have been very bloody, and characterised by circumstances of peculiar atrocity. It is said to have occurred on the evening of Sunday, the 8th inst., during divine service, when the church was surrounded, and every man, woman, and child murdered, a detachment of the mutineers being told off to fire the cantonment and slay the people in the bungalows. Concerning the mutiny at Cawnpore, we are also in much un- certainty. Part of her Majesty's 10th Regiment and a battery of European artillery were fortunately on the spot, and a repe- tition of the tragedies at Bareilly and Shahjehaupore prevented. There seems, however, to have been several days' fighting, but the mutineers were eventually driven out of the place. Many on our side are said to have fallen. At Gwalior, all that we know is that the Contingent has muti- nied ; and, as this consists of seven regiments of infantry, two of cavalry, and five companies of artillery, the defection of this army is most serious. The Maharajah protected our ladies and the officers, who have all arrived safely at Agra. The soldiery demanded that they should be given up, but the Prince stood firm and rescued them. We have now got to the end of this terrible list, and feel that any attempt to heighten its significance by comment would be misplaced. The empire is passing through a most terrible crisis in its history, and we are looking with much anxiety for rein- forcements of European troops. We are informed that Lord Elgin has determined to direct all the troops for China to proceed to Calcutta. On the 7th inst. his lordship and General Ashburnham were at Penang. The de- spatch of a considerable force to China from home at this junc- ture is truly providential; and, as no difficulty will be expe- rienced in intercepting it, we hope to have the force soon in Bengal. Our Government ( Bombay) has despatched a mission to the Cape of Good Hope and Mauritius, under Captain Jenkins, to bring up as large a force as can be spared from those colonies to our assistance, and it is thought probable he may succeed in getting us a reinforcement of 4,000 or 5,000 men. We have intelligence that our 1st Fusiliers have arrived at Mooltan, and so secured the quiet of that part of til © Punjaub ; and her Majesty's 64th and 78th, which left this a month aa- o, at Calcutta; as also the battery of Madras Horse Artillery which sailed in their company. Sir Patrick Grant, who has been ap- pointed to the command in Bengal, arrived at Calcutta on the 17th ult. Our latest advices from Delhi are not encouraging. General Barnard was waiting reinforcements on the morning of the 17th, having repelled several sorties with success, and inflicted severe loss upon the rebels. The following despatch has been received from the general, relating the success on the 8th ult.:— " Delhi Cantonments, June 8. " SlE: The forces under my command marched from Alipore at one a. m. this morning, and on reaching Baidlee Soraee found the enemy strongly posted in an intrenched position, which I have the satisfaction to inform you we carried after an engage- ment of about three quarters of an hour, and proceeded to take up our present position, which we found to be over disputed ground the whole way, and finally a well- defended line of defence from the signal tower to the Hindoo Rao house. Our troops be- haved with thegreatest gallantry and persevering endurance, and after facing very determined resistance drove the enemy within the walls of Delhi. All this was accomplished by nine o'clock in the morning. Our loss has been comparatively trifling, only one officer being killed ; but I regret to say that officer is Col. Chester, adjutant- general to the army, who was esteemed by all for every qualification that could adorn the soldier. I have not been able to ascertain the particulars of our loss, or capture of guns, but I fear I cannot estimate the former under from 40 to 50 killed ; the number of guns taken to be about 16 or 18. " I do not in this hurried despatch attempt to recommend any one, but I cannot pass over the assistance I received from Briga- dier Wilson, whose cool judgment entitles him to an equal share of any merit that may be given to the officer in command. Prom the Brigadier- General and staff of the army attached to me and from the division staff I received every support, and from my personal staff, Captain Barnard and Lieutenant Turnbull, the most daring devotion. The conduct of the Ghoorka Battalion, the Sappers, and other native troops employed, was most praise- worthy. They vied with their European comrades in forward daring; the troops of the native contingents did equally good service, including those of the Jheend Rajah; and I cannot close this without especial notice of many gentlemen attached to the army in civil capacities, who not only accompanied us into the field, but did every service the extended nature of our position rendered particularly important in keeping up mutual com munications. " I hope to send you a fuller detail to- morrow. Our siege train is up, and I hope to open on the town without a moment's delay. " I have, & c., " H. BARNARD, " Major- General Commanding Field Force. " To the Commander- in- Chief." THE SIEGE OF DELHI. Delhi is still in the possession of the insurgents. Accord- ing to the latest authentic accounts, which were to the 16th of June, General Sir Harry Barnard was waiting for rein- forcements. Rumours of the capture of the city had indeed been communicated on two occasions to the Bombay Go- vernment by their agent at Indore, but these rumours were not confirmed. The Bombay Government received on the evening of the 23d of June the following electric telegraph message from Colonel Durand from Indore, dated the same day: " There was a very general report of the taking of Delhi, with great loss to the rebels. The superintendent has not received authentic news from Agra." The following electric telegraph message from Indore, from Col. Durand to the Bombay Government, was received on the 24th of June: " News from Neemuch of the 22d state that Delhi was stormed and taken on the 12th. Such of the mutineeii as remained alive took refuge in the palace." Notwithstanding these telegraphic despatches, the city had not been taken on the 16th of June. The accounts of the operations of General Barnard's force are extremely imper- fect, but some facts are ascertained. On the 8th of June, at two o'clock in the morning, he arrived at Delhi, when the rebels who were outside the city were attacked and driven from the position which they had occupied. They fled into the town, and the pursuit was so sharp that the gunners threw themselves off their horses, and left the field pieces standing in the sand. " The heavy guns remained in po- sition;" twenty- six guns in all were captured, and, in ad- dition, large quantities of ammunition and entrenching tools. The outposts were taken possession of. Colonel Chester, Adjutant- General, and Lieut. Russell, 54th, were among the killed. Our loss was about 150, chiefly in the 75th Queen's regiment. The army at the latest date was encamping in cantonments. A message from Major Lake at Jullundur, communicating this information to Sir John Lawrence at Lahore, adds:— The mutineers had guns in battery round the flagstaff, but we outflanked them on both sides. One | Dr. Batson, of Delhi, has turned up, and is now at head- column of ours marched down the trunk road, and another through cantonments. We work away with heavy guns to- morrow. This has been a brilliant afi'air. The guns of the mutineers were very well served, and the fire was very heavy. General Reed arrived just as the columns moved off, but did not command OH the occasion." POSITION OF THE BESIEGING ARMY. The advanced position of the army is Paneeput. The force under General Barnard is as follows :— Two troops of Horse Artillery, 9th Lancers, one squadron 4th Lancers, her Majesty's 75th Foot, 1st Fusiliers, six companies 2d Fusi- liers. The Meerut force which will unite with it is as follows :— ofh Carabineers, 60th Rifles, four Horse Artillery guns, a horse battery, two 18- pounders, 120 Artillery re- cruits, and some Sappers, Sirmoor Battalion. The 60th N. I. has proceeded to Rohtuk. A detachment of the 5th N. I. and a portion of the 4th Lancers have reached Saharunpore, and order is being re established. Regarding the internal state of Delhi, the news is con- tained in a letter to the Rajah of Jullundur from some one in the city. The Rajah placed the letter at the disposal of the Deputy Commissioner of Jullundur, Mr Farrington, by whom it has been translated. The reports that the King of Delhi had consented to the wishes of the rebels are con- firmed by this document, but it does not appear whether his consent was forced or voluntary. The letter also states that the King has given up his son to the insurgents, that he has nominated a native magistrate, that he summoned— the royal style— the principal men of Delhi to attend him, but that they feigned sickness and refused. The city is reported to be in a most distracted state, and to have defied the efforts made by the K; ng to restore order. " The civilisation of fifty- three years," says the news writer, " has been destroyed in three hours ; good men have been plundered, scoundrels enriched." The letter also furnishes a hint of the fearful atrocities which have been committed by the sepoys. " To- day," says the writer, " some fifty odd Europeans who had secreted themselves have been killed; they ( the sepoys) are hunting for more, aud if any be found they will be killed." When this letter was written there wee six regiments, one battery of artillery, and 500 troopers inside the city. Since that time many other regiments have mutinied and marched to the rebel head- quarters, so that their force must now be considerable. A news letter from the city of Delhi says that strict orders have been issued by the King to the Hindosfanee soldiery to slay all the Sikhs who may be met with; even men who from their countenances may be supposed to be Punjabees are to be slaughtered. A fakeer, called Sham Doss, endeavoured to raise an in- surrection in the territory of our ally the Rajah of Nabah, whose troops are with our army at Delhi. Major Marsden, the Deputy Commissioner of Ferozepore, proceeded against him with a wing of the 10th Light Cavalry and two guns, and some irregular levies of Furreedkota and other places, attacked and dispersed his men, seized the fakeer in a village, in which he had made a stout defence, and hung him. The conduct and gallantry of the cavalry is highly applauded. DELHI AND ITS DEFENCES. The Lahore Gazette thus describes Delhi: — " The city is surrounded by a high crenelated wall, in a deep ditch and glacis. At the Cashmeree gate only is there anything of modern fortification; here there is a simple bastion, with properly cut embrasures. It is inclosed, and forms the main guard. The city measures about two miles across, and is some seven or eight miles in circumference. On the east side the walls are washed by the Jumna. " The palace is in a commanding position ; and though the walls are not calculated to resist heavy artillery, yet the place could scarcely be taken without a breach being made in them, that is, if the garrison showed any skill lu its defence. " The capture of such a place is a simple matter of time, and its fall might be calculated to an hour; but everything depends upon the plan of defence adopted by the garrison. It is possible that they may risk a battle outside the walls; in which case, after their defeat, they might be followed into the city and into the palace, and so Delhi might be taken by a rush; but as our force is so very small, and such mighty consequences hang upon the success of our attack, the very greatest risk would be incurred by having our men exposed to musketry fire from houses, for a native's fire from a loophole is more than a match for a European in the open. If our force was large, we might afford to make a dash at the place, and it is just possible that events may even justify such a measure; but a regular siege, which cannot well fail, would be preferable. " The whole of the western side is one mass of native houses. To scale the walls would be easy, but no object would be gained by pouring our handful of troops into a sea of houses, with streets barricaded; heavy loss would un- questionably follow. " This mode of attack would be absurd, and would cer- tainly end in discomfiture. There are two modes of attack, however, which could not well fail, and one or the other must be adopted. " The first is to attack the palace at once from the river side, for the water until the end of the month is so very low, and so little more than a stream which is fordable, that it would create no obstacle worth mentioning. The batteries could be erected on the sand, and the camp being across the river would be safe. By shelling the palace and breaking its new wall, an assault could be made, and the fire of our guns would continue till our troops had fairly got in. " The shelling would have destroyed all cover, and pro- bably would have driven out the defenders, so that there is little doubt but that the assault would be successful. Having got possession of the palace, the city falls at once. There is, however, a chance of the river rising suddenly, when the batteries would be destroyed, so that this attack entirely depends upon the river and the probability of its rise. " The next and safest mode of attack, and the one that in all likelihood will be the one adopted, is to attack near the Cashmeree gate. The advantage is this, that our left would be protected by the river, a great consideration in a small camp. Our guns would soon render the main guard unte- nable, and to make a practicable breach in the wall between the Cashmeree gate and the river would be a very simple operation. Our advance would then be made in the open, and with little risk of loss from the fire of musketry from houses, for, owing to the explosion in the magazine, it is prob& ble that from the church to the palace all has been levelled. Our object, then, would be to breach the palace in its north wall, mortars all the time doing their work. To storm the palace would close the proceedings. " As the garrison have so few artillerymen, it does not seem likely that their defence is to rest in their guns. They will trust to musketry fire from houses ; in all probability, they have undermined all the gates, and their plan will be, to inflict upon us as much loss as they can while gradually falling back, when they will hope to escape with their trea- sure, dispersing in every direction immediately they leave the walls. It is scarcely to be expected that anything like a vigorous or a systematic defence will be shown, and for this very reason it would be most unwise to risk valuable lives, and run the chance of success by the sacrifice of a thousand men, when the same results can be obtained by a moderate delay, with a loss of perhaps not one hundred. Thus, while it is possible that the place may be taken by a coup de main, it would be better to do it leisurely, and surely, and there- fore the public should have no apprehension of failure if they do not hear of its being captured at first sight."

Three of the sepoys were a'so hanged.— Lahore Chronicle, June 6. AN ESCAPE FROM DELHI. The following is the copy of a letter from an officer of the 38th Native Infantry :— " Monday morning came, and the whole brigade paraded to hear the sentence read of the Barrackpore courts- martial. About eight o'clock the 54th were under arms, and marching to the city with two guns of Captain De Teissier's battery. The muti- neers from Meerut were then crossing the bridge of boats. The 38th and 74th had not long been under arms when news reached us that the 54th refused to fire; that Colonel Ripley and others of their officers had been shot or cut down. We then moved down the Artillery parade ground, where were De Teissier's guns and some companies of the 74th. Thence we moved to the Flagstaff Tower, where the midday gun fires, and formed line along the high ground. Proctor ( 38) had gone down to the Cashmere Gat e, where he was subaltern officer of the main guard for that week ( afterwards saved). We remained at the tower all day; the ladies and residents, some in their carriages, some walking, gradually flocked there. Dr Stewart had marvellously escaped from the city, and told us of the fate of Colonel Ripley, who was not dead, but removed to the Artillery quarter- guard, mortally wounded. It was so inexplicable to us why troops from Meerut did not arrive. Looking towards the city, we saw fires blazing, and heard the firing of heavy guns, which left us in uncertainty as to what was taking place. Dr Batson volunteered to disguise as a native and make his way to Meerut; the brigadier accepted his services. He took a sorrowful leave of his wife, and we have never heard a word of him since ( since . safe). Men rode in from the main guard and told us the troops would do nothing. Later I offered to go; ' Gibraltar' was fresh, though he, like us, had had no food all day. I hammered along, and got inside the gate— you remember there are two, the entering one was open ; the inner one, citywards, was closed. Our men, composing the guard and companies of the 64th and 74th hung about in knots; two guns were in position, pointing to the gate; a large knot of officers stood on the slope going up to the main road. I saw Procter, Dr Wood, Hyslop, Smith ( 74th), Reveley, Osborne, Captain Gordon Butler, Angelo Elton, and some others. Above was a group of ladies— the Forrests, Mrs Ironson, Fuller, Fors- ter, & c. While I was there the magazine blew up, it seut us hurry- scurry in every direction, for fear of the falling fragments, but no one was hurt. The saddest sight yet remained. By the gate, side by side, and covered by pretty ladies' dresses taken from some house, as if in mockery, lav the bodies of poor Cap- tain Smith, Borrowes, Edwardes, and Waterfield, and the Quar- termaster- Sergeant, some lying calm as shot dead, and others with an expression of pain and mutilated by bayonets and tul- wars ( swords). I had no business in the main guard away from the men, and soon after rode back to the tower. I could not look poor Miss W ( step- sister to Captain Burrowes) in the face; she had come in the carriage with Mrs H and Miss H . It was thought to make a stand at the tower, and the service ammunition was brought up from the lines, but we had only 19 Europeans, drummers, & c, besides officers, that we could count upon. The sepoys sooii showed the spirit which animated them, by firing on Captain De Teissier, fortunately only killing his horse. The sun was going down when Majors Paterson and Elton came in, stating that they had escaped from the main guard; that the sepoys were shooting down their officers, and all was confusion. We saw it was hopeless. The Brigadier ordered us to retire. First went the carriages, then the guns, next the 38th, and a portion of the 74th. I cannot say then what became of the carriages. As I brought up the rear our men fell in in column in order, but as we retired they streamed off right and left by hundreds into the bazaar, till at last the colonel and I found ourselves with the colours and a handful of men. We intended to make for a ford by the powder magazine, but our men showed that they were no longer under control, took the colours, and made for their lines. The colonel and I followed. We sounded the assembly, and there was a great hubbub. We implored the men to fall in, but they stood still and declmed. The colonel went among them, and begged they would shoot him if they wished it. They vowed they had no ill feeling against us. It was here I saw the last of poor Holland ( since safe). His horse had not been ridden all day; it came from his bungalow. I heard Holland exclaim,' Which way didthe ladies and carriages go P' Someone answered the Knr- naul road; and I watched him canter across the parade- ground to the bridge by the company's garden. If I had had a wife or child, or any one belonging to me in the carriages, I might have done the same; but as it was Idismounted, patted Gibraltar with a kind of presentiment of evil and sent him to my bungalow, and walked disconsolately into our quarter- guard. The colonel did the same; somehow the idea of flight did not occur to us. I got my bed down from the bungalow and my kit, aud went for some din- ner. Thenour men commenced urgingusto escape, but werefused, and I fell asleep. I awoke, and my bearer entreated me to go, and said that the ruffians were coming from the city. Peile was also in the quarter- guard. We each took one of the colours, and got as far as the door, but the men closed on us, and jerked them out of our hands. Firing commenced behind us, and the satisfaction of being shot by one's own troops is small. I met the colonel in the doorway and, seizing him by the wrist, forced him along over the parade ground to the bridge by our butts. It was quite dark. We reached it untouched, and scrambled on till we tell exhausted by a tree. Soon the moon rose, andcau- tonments m a blaze threw a glare on the colonel's scales; my scabbard flashed, and white clothing looked like snow. We crouched like hares, and thus passed all that fearful night, now running forward, now hiding in hollows and gaps, as voices seemed m qUr tragk< We kept parallel to the road which leads to the Shalismar Gardens. We crossed the Jumna Canal by a ford. anddraHkas perhaps we never drank before. The poor colonel was terribly exhausted; we had had nothing all day. Day broke, we were under a tree, and the colonel tore tbe scales off his coat and hid them in the bushes. I was bent on making tor the JAurnaul road, trusting to some conveyance meeting us, but the colonel was set against the plan, and we made for the Jumna bank We perceived abroken down mud hut at a little distance. Into this we crept and lay down; while there, as the sun rose, we perceived a party of sepoys and others advancing towards usi; they seemed to search the bushes, and the sun glit- tered on their arms. I cocked my pistol mechanically, but after two barrels I liad no more ammunition. The colonel had not even his sword I remember saying, ' Oh, colonel, deathis betterthan this horrible suspense;' God's hand was over us then as ever, lhe sepoys turned towards the river, as if thinking that we had taken the ford, and disappeared. Some Brahmins discovered us as they came to work. One took us to the village, and put us in a tope ( clump of trees), while he got us chuppaties ( bread) and milk. On the way Mr Marshall, the auctioneer and mer- chant, met us. He had quitted the quarter- guard immediately after the colonel and me, together with three others, but in the morning Marshall alone remained, and where the others are, alive or dead, we know not. After giving us food, our Brahmin friends took us over a ford of a branch of the Jumna, and con- cealed us in the long jungle grass on the other side. While there, another came to me, and said a party of fugitives like ourselves were in the grass at a little distance. I followed, and he led me some two miles, when I found a party of ladies aud owiers concealed. The first person I saw was Procter, and in my joy at seeing liim, whom I had believed shot at the main guard, I saw no one else. After the first joy of meeting him, 1 looked about and found Mrs Forrest, her husband, and three M, rs Fraser ( Engineers), Mr Salkeld, Vibart, and Wilson ( Artillery). I sent to the colonel and Marshall, and this made our party thirteen. With guns and swords, we thought our- selves a match for a chance straggling party of mutineers. The escape of this party from the mainguard was wonderful. During the afternoon it was determined by Major Abbott at the Cashmere Gate to send what ladies were there to cantonments. There were no conveyances, and they were mounted on the carriages ofthe guns. Who knows what spirit possessed our men ? They were suddenly dislodged, and a murderous fire commenced on all there assembled. There was a rush up the ramparts into the mainguard. Osborne was shot through the thigh. He said' I am not going to be murdered by these sepoys,' and led the way, throwing himself over the wall into the ditch below. Others followed. Mrs Forrest was shot through the shoulder, but over they went, one after another, dropping down what in ordinary circumstances one would say endangered life and limb, yet they reached the ditch, scrambled up the scarp, aud the party I mention reached Sir T. Metcalfe's house; the servants gave them some beer and food, and led them to the river bank shortly before the house was fired. They passed much such a night as we did, with one narrower escape. As they lay concealed some men passed and saw a riband or a bottle, and saying, * Oh, they have been here, evidently,' went on. They came to the same ford, and while concealed heard me de- scribed by my eyeglass, sent for me, and thus we happily met. We could not stay in the grass, so that evening started, the Brahmins conducting us to a ford over the Jumna. We tra- velled some two or three miles up stream before reaching it. Our hearts failed, and no wonder, where ladies were concerned, as we looked at the broad swift river. It was getting dark, too. Two natives went across. We watched them anxiously wade a considerable portion of the river; then their heads alone ap- peared above water. It was our only chance of life, and our brave ladies never flinched. It was so deep that where a tall man would wade a short man would be drowned. I thought it was all over when, on reaching the deep water with Mrs Forreet on my left arm, a native supporting her on the other side, we were shot down the river; however, by desperate efforts and the assistance of another native, we reached the bank in safety. I swam back once more for another of our party, and so ultimately we all got safe over. It was a brave feat for our ladies to do. We passed another wretched night, suffering fearfully from cold, and crouching close to each other for warmth; there was no noise but the chattering of our teeth. Next morning we were discovered and led to a tope, where again the Brahmins tempo- rarily proved our friends, but they turned us out shortly after wards with news that there were sowars behind and sowarsi n front. We turned wearily to the left to fall into the hands of the Googurs. These ruffians gradually collected and with a wild howl set upon us. Our arms had been under water and useless, and they were 15 to 1. They disarmed us and proceeded brutally to rob and strip us. I think a fakeer here saved our lives. On we toiled all day in a burning sun, with naked feet and skins peel- ing and blistering in the burning wind. How the ladies stood it is marvellous, yet they never murmured or flinched, or dis- tressed us by" a show of terror. We were taken to a large Brahmin village that night and concealed in a fakeer's hut. We were there three days, and I trust hereafter handsomely to reward our benefactors. While here we sent in a letter in French to Meerut asking for assist- ance. It seemed not to come, and from Bhekia we were taken to Hurchundpore at the request of an old zemindar, who had heard of our whereabouts, and treated us royally. He was a German by birth, an old man of 80 or 90, and now native in dress, language, & c— not in heart or religion. He sent us up clean stuff for clothes, and gave us something like civilised food again. That evening 30 sowars ( troopers), under Lieutenants Gough and Mackenzie, who volunteered for the service in answer to our letter, rode in, and we enjoyed the luxurious sense of re- lease from the almost hourly expectation of death. The old man provided carts for us, and at ten p. m. the day week of our escape from Delhi we reached Meerut. " What a delight it was to be surrounded by kind faces and by sympathising friends. We were truly in a deplorable condi- tion— lame, filthy, and plundered of all; we were ashamed to look people in the face. There are many who, like ourselves, have lost everything belonging to them. I feel that thankful- ness for life must counterbalance every other consideration. My losses are small, for I have lost none dear to me by relation- ship. I often thanked God that I had neither wife nor child. All the 38th are saved, as Holland came in here alive, but with a slight cut on the back from a sabre. Poor fellow, he has been wandering 17 days, owing his life to the kindness of villagers and others on the road." THE MASSACRE AT DELHI. The Daily News says:— " A month ago the Calcutta passengers by the Indian mail packet declared that the Oude family were implicated in the sepoy mutiny. This was mentioned in the Daily News at the time; but the Oude family was not mentioned in any other paper, either English or Indian, in connection with the mutiny at that time. A fortnight after this statement appeared in the Daily News the telegraph announced that the King of Oude had been made a prisoner for being concerned in the conspiracy of the Bengal army. The passengers by the India mail packet Co- lombo, which arrived here yesterday, state that some things atrocities. The Colombo passengers say that the imagination • an scarcely conceive the fiendish barbarities perpetratedb\ t he sepoys. When the Bengal mutineers entered the city of Delhi there were English merchants, mercantile, telegraph, and post- office clerks, officers of the native regiments, and Govern- ment functionaries, with their English wives and children, living there as unconscious of danger as if they had been in any English town. As soon as the routineers entered Delhi a great many Englishmen and Englishwomen and children escaped, but numbers could not do so, and those who did not escape were subjected to outrages worse than death. The daughter of an English clergyman was driven through the streets of Delhi naked, then subjected to unspeakable outrages by an infuriated soldiery, and afterwards cut to pieces with swords. An English lady in the same city was suspended by the feet naked, and hacked to pieces. The European officers and soldiers are exasperated to madness by these atrocities, and most terrible punishments will be inflicted by the European soldiers on the mutinous sepoys when Delhi is taken. These sepoys have acted more like fiends than human creatures. It is with the greatest difficulty that the English soldiers can be prevented from laying violent hands on every native they meet. A High- land regiment landed at Calcutta, and one of the soldiers was seen immediately to rush straight to a native and fell him to the e5 ™ i with his fist in an instant. Whoever lives to tell the tale of Delhi and of the scenes witnessed in the city during the siege, will be able to relate UHdreamt of horrors. The officers who came home by the Colombo seemed to think that it was for- tunate the rebellion in India broke out when it did, for the dis- affection might have spread more extensively before it made itself openly known. The outbreak has been long expected, and a great fault appears to have been the fear to face it, or antici- pate it, on the part of the authorities. THE EXECUTIONS AT FEROZEPORE. [ From the Lahore Chronicle.'] FEROZEPORE, JUNE 13.— A friend sends us the follow- ing account of the execution of some of the mutineers at that station on the morning of the 13th inst :— " This morning were executed 12 of the mutineers of the late 45th Regiment Native Infantry. All the available troops and public establishments were convened to witness the scene, which took place at the south- east of the Sudder Bazaar, and north of the old Fort— the side at which the mutineers had got in. A gallows had been erected during the night previous, and around it were the troops drawn up; a squadron of the 10th Native Light Cavalry ( remnant of the disbanded 57th Native Infantry) and Commissariat and Magazine Establishment on the east, her Majesty's 61st Foot and artillery ( with 12 guns) on the south, and the city and cantonment police on the west. The mutineers ( 24,1 think) were brought into the centre by a guard of her Majesty's 61st Foot. One of the mutineers was brought in a doolie, as his left arm had been amputated in consequence of a fracture caused by a musket ball fired at him by her Majesty's 61st Foot when with the mutineers he was iu the fausss braie of the fert. Lieutenant Hoggan, by order of Brigadier Innes, read out the proceedings of the general court- martial which tried the mutineers, and the sentence awarded them, to the troops and establishments. He then informed the mutineers that if any would become Queen's evidence the brigadier would reprieve them. I believe twelve accepted the offer and were marched to the rear of the artillery. They stated their willingness to inform upon the ringleaders, and to further divulge secrets to show whence the mutiny originated and with what view. Of the re- maining twelve two ( one being the man with the amputate! arm) were taken to the gallows. They ascended the ladder with firm steps, and never betrayed any emotions of fear. On gaining the platform they adjusted the nooses with their own hands; their eyes were then bandaged and their arms pinioned. Another second, and they were launched into eternity. Death was in- stantaneous with one, but the one- armed culprit lingered out for a considerable time, as the knot slipped under his chin. The hangmen had to readjust the knot, and giving him another drop the throes of tbe body rapidly ceased, and the vital spark soon became extinct. The other 10 mutineers were led away to the artillery guns but while their irons were being struck off some cried out,' Do not sacrifice the innocent for the guilty.' Two others,' Hold your snivelling, die men and not cowards— you defended your religion, why then do you crave your lives ? Sahibs ! they are not sahibs, they are dogs.' Some more began to upbraid their commanding officer. ' He released the havildar- major, who was the chief of the rebels.' The 10 men were fastened to the muzzles of 10 guns, which were charged with blank car- tridge. The commanding officer directed port- fires to be lit. dy!' ' Fire!' and the drama was played out. The scene and stench were overpowering. I felt myself terribly convulsed, and could observe that the numerous native spectators were awe- stricken— that they not only trembled like aspen leaves, but also changed into unnatural hues. The lesson, I trust, will not be lost on them. Precaution was not taken to remove the ' sponge and load men' from near tha muzzles of the guns ; and the consequence was that they were greatly bespattered with blood, and one man in particular received a stunning blow from a shivered arm." ——• THE HORRORS OF ALLAHABAD. A letter from Chuna, published in The Times, says :— " And now I have a tale of fearful horrors to tell you of what happened at Allahabad. God grant it may be exaggerated; I fear it is too true. Let it stir up our English friends to send us, with the utmost expedition, the troops we so urgently require. On Saturday evening last the 3d Oude Cavalry and 6th Native Infantry rose, and destroyed the bridge of boats, and murdered every European they could find. Out of 17 officers at mess at 9: 30 14 of them were butchered by 9: 40 by the mutineers and mess- guard. And this is a regiment that volunteered to go against the Delhi rebels! Many of the poor residents had left the fort, on account of the intense heat and the apparent secu- rity of everything. The mob and cutthroats rose with the soldiery. They bnrnt one whole family, from grandfather to grandchildren, alive 1 Others they killed by inches, cutting off the nose, then the ears, then fingers, then toes, & c ; children they killed— little innocent babes— before the mother's eyes, and then killed her. And such might have been our case at Benares, had not our officers providentially anticipated the bloody plot of Thurs- day, the 4th. Happily Mr and Mrs Spry and the mission- aries are safe in the fort. Our gallant fellows have sallied and retaken two of the guns, but two are still in the enemy's hands, and, as there are a good many Sikhs on duty in the fort, we are still anxious. To- day we have heard there have been two fights at Agra, but we have no particulars. You will be glad to hear that the Reuthers, from Jaunpore, with Mr J. Csesar, the catechist, and his wife, are safe and in Benares. On Thursday, the 4th, the discomfited mutineers from Benares set off for Jaunpore. At eight a. m. on Friday, the 5th, two or three indigo planters rode at full speed into the Reuthers' compound, saying,' Fly for your lives, the Sepoys are upon us!' They hurried off at once to the Kutcherry, where all the residents were assembled. The 37th first came up, and seem to have been afraid to attack thera. Meanwhile Mr Csesar was walking with Captain Mara, who commanded the Sikhs at Jaunpore. Mr Caesar said ' The 37th are upon us.' ' The 37th,' said Captain Mara, * What have we to fear from the 37th ? Our own men will keep them off.' Mr Caesar had scarcely left him when he was struck by a ball from the Sikhs, staggered a few steps, and fell. It seems the Sikhs were afraid to rob the treasury till they had shot their officer. Then they began to pillage, and the residents took that opportunity to be off. Before they went the Sikhs had come up and fired at all the windows of the Kutcherry, and they were obliged to lie down on the floor, the bullets whizzing over their heads. Mr Ceesar saw the magistrate, Mr Cuppage, lying dead in front of the gaol door. After most had escaped up came the sowars, on whom we had been relying for our lives at Benares, until the arrival of the English troops. They had vowed to murder every European. They came to the deputy- collector, an Old East Indian. Both Hindoos and Mussulmans got around him and said,' Do him r. o harm ; he has always been kind and just to us.' * Can't help it,' said the sowars, ' he is a European.' They then repeated this to a sergeant and his wife, though the people pleaded for them, and said they were very kind and inoffensive. ' Can't help it, they are Europeans.' Pro videntially the refugees did not take the Benares road, or they would have been cut off, man, woman, and child, by these bloodthirsty savages. They drove off to Zjufferabad, and there got on board a native boat to go down the Ganges, They bad not gone far when the boatmen, native like, turned against the Sahibs in their distress, and refused to convey them beyond a certain village. There they landed them, and they repaired to the police- office, and the Benares magistrate, with a party of volunteers and English soldiers, escorted them to Benares. Their flight lasted five days. . At Allahabad the city had re- volted, and hoisted the; green flag. This makes one think that it is at the bottom a conspiracy of our deadliest foes the Mussul- mans, and that they have got hold of the cartridge delusion as a means to stir up the Hindoos. No doubt the annexation of Oude vexed them unspeakably, and now Oude seems to be the rallying point, and doubtless we shall have to conquer it again. Sir Henry Lawrence is now commanding there, and has entrenched himself in a very strong position at Lucknow, from which nothing but want of provisions will drive him. Iu that case, I imagine, he would fight his way to Cawnpore, which, when I last heard, was secure, but in a state of siege. The European troops from Oude are divided between Lucknow and Cawnpore; and as soon as the rebels are quashed at Allahabad I doubt not European troops will be constantly passing on to Cawnpore, whence they can relieve Lucknow. THE LATEST NEWS. The Colombo arrived at Southampton on Tuesday morn- ing with the heavy portion of the Indian and China mails. Her dates were— Alexandria, July 23 ; Malta, 26 ; and Gibraltar, 30. Her Majesty's ships Tartarus and Caradoc were at Alex- andria, and the Vulture at Gibraltar. The Caradoc was at Alexandria to receive an embassy from the kingdom of Siam. The passengers on board the Colombo who have come from India firmly believe that Delhi has fallen. They state that Bazaar intelligence outstrips Government intelligence ( which is a bad sign, because it shows complicity between the natives in India and the mutineers), and that according to Bazaar intelligence Delhi had fallen. When the Madras passengers left, an emeute was fully ex- pected in that presidency. The Europeans were under arms. The passengers think that the mutiny is not considered in England so serious as it really is. They give some frightful details of atrocities committed by the mutineers. In Delhi six European ladies had taken refuge in a room; one of them, very young and beautiful, concealed herself under a sofa. The other five were subjected to outrage by the muti- nous soldiery, and then beheaded. The blood trickled under the sofa, and the young female concealed there betrayed her- self by uttering a shriek. She was seized and taken to the harem of the King of Delhi. This is considered a proof that the King is in league with the mutineers. One thousand seven hundred armed men were found about the residence of the King of Oude when he was taken prisoner, although according to treaty he was not allowed one armed attendant. Sir Colin Campbell was treated with the most profound re- spect by the authorities in Egypt. His passage through that country was an ovation.

HoilAND.— A gigantic enterprise is now going on in Holland, being nothing less than blocking up two arms of the sea, and re- placing them by a navigable canal for merchant vessels of the largest burden. By this operation an extent of land of 35,000 acres, ofthe finest quality, will be gained from the Scheldt. This canal, which will be completed in the course of two years, crosses the island of Sud- Beveland, between the village of Hanswert, on the western branch of the Scheldt, and Wemer- dinge, on the eastern. It will be 61 miles in length, and pro- vided with towing- paths on both sides, and aqueducts and other works requisite for draining off the waters. There are to be locks at both ends of the canal, with wet docks of 1,000 square metres each. Outside the locks there will be ports about 60 metres broad, and swivel bridges are to cross the canal at several points. The dams are to rise four metres above high- water mark.

CALCUTTA, AT HONG KOSG, JUNE 10,1857.— SIR: I hare the; honour to report proceedings in the Canton River since my letter by the packet of 25th May. 2. The arrival of the Tribune and Amethyst having enabled me to reinforce Commodore Honourable C. G. J. B. Elliot, the senior officer in the river, that Officer at once commenced offensive operations against the junk forces; and on the 2- Tth and 27ch ultimo, he took the gun- boats and the boats of her Majesty s ships under his orders, up the Escape Creek, aeainsfc the fleet which has been so long stationed in its inner waters,, where he had the good fortune to capture or destroy about forty- Mandarin war- junks, in a manner which has called forth my entire approval. I beg to invite the attention of the Lords Com- missioners of the Admiralty to Commodore Elliot's enclosed: report of his proceedings, and to the officers he has named for their conduct in the affair. 3. Iu my letter, No. 119,1 signified my intention of proceed- ing up the Canton River. I accordingly embarked in the Coro- mandel steam tender, Lieutenant Sholto Douglas commanding, on the 29th May. and with the remaining gun- boats, and the boats of her Majesty's ship Calcutta, under the command of Commander H. R. Rolland, arrived the same day at the se- cond bar. 4. I was reluctantly under the necessity of depriving myself of the urgently proffered services of my flag- captain, William K. Hall, whose presence at Hong Kong has long, under trying cir- cumstances, proved most beneficial to the colony. 5. Having now an adequate force at my disposal, I lost no- time in taking the necessary steps for an attack on the war junks, which have been visible up the Fatsham Creek since 4th of January last, when they made so determined and well arranged an attempt to recapture the Macao Fort and block up the channel. The enclosed copy of a general memorandum to the squadron, and abstract statement ( numbered 2 and 3) will show my arrangements and the disposition and nature of the force selected for the purpose, which proceeded on the Slst May to the upper part of the river. 6. Just before daybreak on the 1st of June I advanced up the Fatsham Creek in the Coromandel, the Haughty following, having in both vessels detachments of seamen, under the com- mand of Commodore the Honourable Charles Elliot, aad of Royal Marines in charge of Captain Robert BoyleV R. M., and the other officers and boats attached to the 1st Division, in order to capture a fort with outworks, mounting 19 guns, on an advanced elevated point, which commanded the approach to the position occupied by the junk forces. The flight of several signal rockets showed that the Chinese were fully alive to our Broceedings. When within about 1,500 yards of the fort the oromandel grounded on a barrier of sunken junks filled with stones, and the enemy opened fire. The landing party of seamen and marines were immediately put in the boats, and sent ahead, aud under a very heavy fire of round and grape, in Which the junk fleet joined, the fort was almost immediately in our pos- session, Commodore Elliot setting the good example of being one ofthe first in it. The landing was partially covered by the fire from the Haughty. One or two of the guns in the fort were immediately turned on the war j unks. Happily this fmportant service was effected without loss, The position was a remark- ably strong one, and, defended by a body of resolute troops, might have bid defiance to any attack. The Haughty, having landed her party, went on with Commodore Elliot and the boats of the 1st Division, to co- operate with Commodore Kep- pel. I ordered a portion of' the Royal Marines, under Lieutenant and Adjutant Burton, to remain as a garrison in the fort, and sent Captain Boyle, with the remainder, about 150 in number, to the scene of operations by land, to cut off the enemy retreating from the junks, and to prevent the advancing boats being annoyed by gingalls or matchlocks from a larg « village ad- oining— a favourite tactic with the Chinese. One half of this force Was ultimately sent back to the fort, and the remainder rejoined the squadron up the creek. 7. As soon as Commodore the Hon. H. Keppel perceived the men of the 1st division ascending the heights, he advanced up the channel on the east side of Hyacinth Island, with the gun and other boats of the 2d, 3d, and 4th divisions, in the order stated in the programme. With the exception of the Haughty and Plover, the gun- boats soon grounded, but, agreeably with, my instructions, the boats were pushed ahead. The junks which were admirably moored in position to enfilade the whole of the attacking force, soon opened a very heavy fire, keeping it up with great spirit until our boats were close alongside, when the orews commenced to abandon their vessels, and to effect their escape across the paddy fields. The blowing up of one or two junks hastened this movement. In about twenty minutes we had possession of fifty junks. 8. Leaving the 3d aud 4th divisions to secure the prizes, Commodore Keppel then proceeded about three miles further up the creek, where more mast- heads were visible, and found twenty junks moored across the stream in a very strong position, which opened such a well directed and destructive fire, that he was obliged to retire and wait for reinforcements. Tha launch of the Calcutta was sunk by a round shot, the commodore's galley had three round shot through her, and several other boats were much injured. On additional boats coming up, the commodore shifted to the Calcutta's black barge, and again advanced, and, after a severe action, the enemy gave way. They were pursued as far as Fatsham, a distance of seven miles, aud seventeen of them captured and burnt. In consequence of my orders not to molest thisl arge and important city, the three junks which passed through the creek on which it is built effected their escape. 9. The result of the expedition was the capture of between seventy aud eighty heavily- armed junks, mounting, on an average, from ten to fourteen guns ( many of them long 32- pounders), nearly all of European manufacture. As no object would have been gaiued by removing the prizes, I caused them, with a few exceptions, to be burnt; and the flames and numerous heavy explosions must have been seen and heard far and wide. 10. This engagement opens a new era in Chinese naval warfare. Great judgment was shown in selecting the position for the fleet, and the Chinese, particularly the last division attacked by Commodore Keppel, defended their ships with skill, courage, and effect. I enclose a list of casualties, whieh I regret to state is large, amounting to three officers and ten seamen and marines killed, and four officers and 40 seamen and marines wounded, but it is to me a matter of surprise that under the circumstances of the case the loss was not greater. J 11. I deeply regret to report the death of Major Kearney, Deputy- Assistant Quartermaster- General to the China Expe- ditionary force. This officer was on duty in the Canton River, and gallantly volunteered his services in the boats- He was killed by a round shot in the Fury's gig in the attack upou the upper division of junks. 12. I had the wounded collected as soon as possible, and sent them to Hong Kong the same evening, in charge of Dr. Ander- son, Staff Surgeon of the Calcutta. 13. The force remained at anchor on the night of the 1st of June, in the position before occupied by the junk fleet, and on the following morning dropped down to the main river, towing five of the captured vessels, which were the only ones saved from the general conflagration. 14. In the execution of these important services I need hardly state that every captain, officer, and man did his duty, and where all have so distinguished themselves I refrain from making individual selections. Should their lordships, therefore, consider the two engagements as worthy of special marks of their approval, I would beg to suggest that due regard should be paid to seniority and services. 15. I must not, however, omit to bring to their lordships' notice the gallant and efficient assistance afforded me by Com- modores Keppel and Elliot, and the captains in charge of the several divisions. Commodore Keppel led tho attack on the junks, and the fact of his galley having had three round shot through it, and five men, out of her crew of six, killed or wounded, is the best proof of the manner in which he main- tained his position. Commodore Keppel's report of his proceedings is herewith enclosed, aud I beg to add a tracing ofthe Fatsham Creek, show- ing the position of the forts and of the junk forces, before the commencement of the attack. I left the river on the afternoon of the 3d, for the purpose of receiving the mails from England, and of waiting the arrival of Lord Elgin. All is perfectly quiet to the northward. The squadron con- tinues generally healthy, but latterly there has b6en a slight increase of fever and dysentery, which may be expected at this season of the year.— I have, & c., M. SEYMOUR, Rear- Admiral and Commander- in- Chief. I beg to add that Mr. George Raymond, Master of the En- counter, at Macao, volunteered his servkes as a pilot, and took the Hong Kong up the Fatsham Creek— a service of danger. The Secretary of the Admiralty. M. S. OPERATIONS AGAINST MANDARIN JUNKS UP THE ESCAPE CREEK. Sybille, 2d Bar, Canton River, May 29,1857. 1. I had the honour to report to you yesterday that her Ma- jesty's gunboats, tenders, and ships' boats captured or destroyed about forty mandarin junks ( snake boats) on the 25th and 27th inst. I beg now to report the nature of the operations mora in detail. 2. The fleet of junks which formerly remained near the main branch of the river had moved to a position about five or six miles up the creek. As it was very doubtful whether our small steamers could get up to them, it was necessary to have a sufficient boat force to follow up the creek independent of gun- boat support. 3. At daylight on the 25th, our force was in the creek, and soon afterwards a mandarin fleet of about forty junks was moored in good order aeross the stream. The tide was a strong ebb, which rendered it less easy for the junks to escape, and although it made our progress slow, it enabled us the better to thread the way among the shoals 4. A heavy fire from the junks opened upon the leading steamers as they approached, but at too great a distance to tell with effect. Shortly afterwards, as the Hongkong got within good range, she opened fire, and was soon supported by tho Bustard and Starling, the others being at distant range. The fire from the junks then slackened, and they got under weigh Some were soon afterwards abandoned, and the rest plying their oars endeavoured to escape up the creek. 5. The steamers followed, though very slowly on account of the choal water ; the Sir Charles Forbes and Stanch grounded early, then the Starling, and eventually the Hong Kong ran ashore. The signal was immediately made for the boats to go ahead, and a general chase took place. The junk force divided, the main body of about fifteen continuing up the main channel were followed by the boats, led by CaptdinEdgell, who detached four pinnaces up a creek to the left to follow the smaller divi- sion ; Commander Forsyth accompanied these pinnaces, which succeeded in capturing them all ( ten in number). Commander Forsyth speaks highly of the gallant way the Hornet's pinnace, under Mr. R. A. Brown, acting mate, dashed in, unsupported by the other boats, which she had distanced, against three of these heavy armed junks, which Btruck to her. 6. The mam body, followed by Captain Edgell, were soon beyond range of all, except the Hornet's rocket- boat, and Sybille's pinnace, which kept within reach of them for a long time ; and Captain Edgell brings to m. y notice the behaviour and most accurate fire kept up by Lieut. Brock in the former boat, and by Mr. Hudson, acting mate, in the latter. The chase was continued by this division, which I accompanied for about 12 or 14 miles above the place where the steamers had grounded, when the work for the men at the oars having been excessive, I decided to turn back, but with the view of getting at the junks, which we still had in sight, at a future time, by another passage. 7. Near the point at which we turned, at the village of Tseen Twe, we found the forcha Anonyma, which was captured last December, whils in tow of the steamer Thistle. I burnt her. 8. On getting back to the gun- boats at night, I found that Commander Corbett, who had very properly remained with the Stanch on her grounding— the other commanders having gone on— had sent the Inflexible's paddle- box boat after a junk that tried to escape down a creek to the right, and captured her. Commander Forsyth had returned with his party, and Lieut. Dent, assisted by the officers of the other gun- boats, had secured or destroyed all the prizes. The Chinese having returned to one of the junks below, she w « s recaptured by Mr, Molloy 2 SUPPLEMENT TO BELL'S LIFE IN LONDON, AUGUST 9, 1857.

Further arrangements were now made to. follow up tt* war- boats that had got away. I had already, the previous aay, stationed the Tribune off Sawshee Channel, and I now moorea the Inflexible abreast of the Second Bar Creek, guns could then range. From the knowledge I now possessea respecting the various creeks, r(, inEscapeCreek( lownw^ dsl considered it possible to guard all the outlets t. the^ v , ana with a force of boats to scour the Inland Creek and compel any junks there either to meet that force or retire towards the mam river. Co mmauder Forsyth with his division took up his station in Escape Creek iu the evening. 12. At daylight on the 27th I proceeded up Sawshee Channel, as previously arranged, the boats being towed by the steamers for ten or twelve miles. I then sent the Bustard to strengthen Commander Forsyth's division, and desired Lieutenant Dent, in the Hong Kong, to take with hini the Inflexible s pinnace, and so a short distance up the Second Bar Creek. He succeeded in passing completely through into Escape Creek, and met Com- mander Forsyth. Casting off from the steamers, the boats palled up the Sawshee Channel, and we soon heard from the atives ( who showed us every good feeling) that four ot tsu UDy s © treating squadron had on the 25th gone up to To mi g- Koran, and that there were other mandarin junks there. ( I beg here to mention the very great assistance I have received from the Rev. Samuel Beal, chaplain of this ship, who was good enough, at my request, to accompany me each day as Chinese inter- preter ; to his aid the successes of the expedition are m a great degree due, as I had failed to obtain an interpreter from Hong K13. g About ten miles from where the steamers were left, we opened the city of Toung Kouan, and observed the mastheads or the war junks. The boats now gave way with a will, and though the junks were in sight fully two miles off, they succeeded m taking them completely by surprise; the boats, as they dashed in, firing into a small battery which commanded the river, and into the war junks caused them to be immediately abandoned. The junks lay scattered along the whole length of the town through which the river runs, aud preparations were now made to destroy them, with the exception of one, the finest and heaviest armed war junk I have seeu iu China, which I hoped to be abie to take away. 14. It soon became apparent that the Chinese troops were not going quietly to submit to this proceeding without further resistance, and the creek being narrow, with houses on either side, they had every facility to pick off our men. As we first passed up, only a few gingalis and matchlocks opened ; these increasing in number, presently gave considerable a anoyance, and it was necessary to keep up a continued fire with some ot the boats' guns, from musketry, and from the Tribune s rocket boat, which did good service, while other parties were employed estroying the junks, which occupied some time, and it was necessary to burn those at the upper end of the town first, and ao on in succession, to enable our boats to get back. " 15. The chief attacks lrom the shore took place towards our rear, at the battery at the lower end of the town, where most of the casualties occurred. Commander Tumour was active and useful, and on two occasions landed in a very gallant manner with small parties of marines, under Lieut. G. L. Blake, R. M., charged some two hundred well- armed men, aud drove them beyond the embankments. . . " 18. An attempt was made to tow down the fire war junk already noticed, but she accidentally caught fire, and she was therefore destroyed with the others. That being accomplished the boats returned down the creek. " 17. This again was a severe day's work; officers and men behaved admirably, aud with the greatest spirit. I beg to report to you the able assistance I received from Captain Edgell, and from Commanders Forsyth, Corbett, and Tumour, during the two days' operations. Their zeal and activity the last day ( as before) was emulated by the officers of all ranks under them, from Lieutenant Nares, the senior lieutenant, to the junior cadet. , , . , " 18. Captain Edgell brings to my notice the active share taken by Lieutenant Staniforth in the Tribune's barge; and the services of Mr. Hudson, acting mate of the ship, I beg particularly to notice. " Lieutenant Richard Cox, of the 33th Regimental Madras Rifles, acompanied the expedition each day as a volunteer, and made himself very useful. ( Signed) " C. ELLIOT, Commodore.

[ Parker and Son, West Strand].— Taking this as the first appearance of a young, anonymous writer, it is one of the most successful ever made. He seems to know intuitively the chief phases of the world, and is thoroughly at home everywhere— in the drawing- room, ball- room, salon a manger, in the hunting field, on the race course, in the grammar school, at the university, in the metropolis, the country town, on the banks of the salmon river, in stubble and in gorse, in woodland and on moor His biography of Guy Livingstone is a master- piece, anj reveals all the different sorts of knowledge enumerated above, and several more. The volums teems with varied attractions, and the hero, a very brilliant specimen of a high bred and affluent Englishman, is surrounded by a host of compeers, male and female, each displaying peculiar and inte- resting idiosyucracies. They form a picture gallery as delight- ful as was ever formed by the pen of the novelist. We invite all our readers to enter it. Those who do will thank us for the iu- vitation. We have a history of the hero's school and college life. If he did not excel his fellows in learning he surpassed them in all athletic sports. He could conquer all comers and goers with fist or foil. In the banqueting- hall he was unparal- leled, in the saddle perfection, with double- barrel unerring. From the University he transports himself to the Horse Guards, and being quartered at Knightsbridge, his biographer and school- fellowcalls upon himthere. aud thus describes him:—'" Before long we heard the clatter of horses' hoofs, and the rattle of steel scab- bards, and I looked out at the squadrons defiling into the barrack yard. My eye fell upon Livingstone at once; it was not difficult to distinguish him, for few, if any, among those troopers picked from the flower of all the counties north of the Humber could compare with him for length of limb and depth of shoulder. I felt proud of him as the hero of my boyhood, looking at him there on his great black charger, square and steadfast as the keep of a castle. His servant spoke to him as he dismounted. I saw his features soften and brighten in an instant; in five seconds he was in the room, and the light was on his face still. I like to think of it— the light of a frank, cordial welcome, as he gripped my hand. He was changed, certainly, but for the bet- ter. The features, which in early youth had been too rugged and strongly marked, harmonised perfectly with the vast pro- portions of a frame now fully devsloped, though still lean in the flanks as a wolf hound. The stern expression about his mouth was more decided and unvarying than ever— an effect which was increased by the heavy moustache that, dense as a cuirassier's of the Old Guard, fell over his lip in a black cascade. It was the face of one of those Crusaders who look up at us from their couGhes in the Round Church of the Temple." We will now show that the author is no novice in horseflesh. A match takes place ( we wish we had space for its description) between a horse of Livingstone's and a mare belonging to a female cousin of his. He describes them both just as " Observer" of Bell's Life would, thus—" The bell for saddling rang, and the horses came out. The mare stripped beautifully, as fine as a star— no wonder her mistress was proud of her; and I think she had, to the full, as many admirers as the Axine. The latter was a dark chesnut, with a white fetlock, standing full 16 hands ( while the mare scarcely topped 15), well ribbed up, with a good sloping shoulder, im- mense flat hockB, and sinewy thighs; his crest and forehead were like a stallion's; and when you looked at his quarters, it was easy to believe what the Haresby stableman said, ' They could shoot a man into the next county.' " This is not bad, but the follow- ing picture of individual womankind is one of the most finished ever done. We do not recollect anything superior to it:—" When I came down before dinner he ( Livingstone) was talking with a lady in dark blue silk, with black lace over it; a wreath, curi- ously plaited, of natural ivy in her hair. I guessed her at once to be Flora Bellasvs. Let* me try to paint— though abler artists have failed— the handsomest brunette I have ever seen. She was very tall; her figure magnificently developed, though slender- waisted and lithe as a serpent; she walked as if she had been bred in a basquind, and her foot and ankle were hardly to be matched on this side of the Pyrenees; the nose slightly aqui- line, with thin transparent nostrils, and the forehead rather low — it looked more so perhaps, from the thick masses of dark hair which framed and shaded her face. Under the clear pale olive of the cheeks the rich blood mautled now and then like wine in a Venice glass; and her lips— the outline of the upper one just defined by a pencilling of down, the lower one full and pouting — glistened with the brilliant smoothness of a pomegranate flower where the dew is clinging. Her eyes— the opium- eaters of Stamboul never dreamt of their peers among the bevies of hachi- houris. They were of the very darkest hazel; one mo- ment sleeping lazily under their long lashes, like a river uuder leaves of water- lilies; the next, sparkling like the same stream when the sunlight is splinted on its ripples into carcanets of diamonds. When they chose to speak, not all the orators that have rounded periods since Isocrates could match their elo- quence ; when it was their will to guard a secret, they met you with the cold, impenetrable gaze that we attribute to the mighty mother, Cybele." The story is interspersed with quo- tations from many languages, so novel and apt that, though we do not generally incline to such flllings- in, we cannot help praising these unreservedly. THE RECREATIONS OF CHRISTOPHER NORTH.—[ Blackwood and Sons, 1857.]— This is the first volume of the versatile Kit's recreations. They will just make another volume, and then we shall have two of the most delightful tomes sporting gentlemen and true lovers of nature ever read. This volume commences with three sporting " fyttes" under thegeneral head of " Chris- topher in his Sporting Jacket." So apparelled he writes about angling, shooting, fox- hunting, and the wild birds and wild beasts of Scotland. His natural history is more fanciful than accurate, but his descriptions of the falcon tribe and red deer are marvellously graphic. His revels in the flight and swoop of the golden eagle and in the long, never- ending trot and dariug bound of the red hart of the mountains. Nothing can be wore charming— truth clad by eloquence— than his tracing the child efforts of the sportsman to his manhood's proficiency, from catching minnows with line and thread and crooked piu to cap- turing salmon with 20 foot rod, hundred yards of stout line and hook, that will neither break nor bend, from cat- chasing to coursing, and so on to hunting with harrier and foxhound. W » will make one extract— this week we have not room for more— in praise of Scotch hares and greyhounds :— " What are your great big fat lazy English hares, ten or twelve pounds and upwards, who have the food brought to their very mouth in preserves, and are out of breath with five minutes' scamper among themselves— to the middle- sized, hard- hipped, wiry- backed, steel- legged, long- winded maukins of Scotland, that scorn to take a leaf of a single cabbage in the wee moorland yardie that shelters them, but prey in distant fields, take a breathing every gloaming along the mountain- breast, untired as young eagles ringing the sky for pastime, and before the dogs seem not so much scouring for life as for pleasure— with such an air of freedom, liberty, and independence, do they fling up the moss and cock their fuds is the faces of their pursuers. Yet stanch are they to the spine— strong in bone, and sound in bottom;— see, see how Tickler clears that twenty- feet moss- hag at a single spang like a bird— tops that hedge that would turn any hunter that ever stabled in Melton Mowbray— and then, at full speed northward, moves as upon a pivot within his own length, and close upon his haunches, without losing a foot, off within a point of due south. A kennel! He never was and never will be in a kennel all his free joyful days. He has walked and run— and leaped and swam about— at his own will, ever since he was nine days old— and he would have done so sooner had he had any eyes. None of your stinking cracklets for him— he takes his meals with the family, sitting at the right hand of the master's eldest son. He sleeps in any bed of the house he chooses; and, though no Methodist, he goes every third Sunday to church. That is the education of a Scottish greyhound— and the consequence is, that you may pardonably mistake him for a deer dog from Badenoch or Lochaber, and no doubt in the world that he would rejoice in a glimpse of the antlers 011 the weather- gleam, • Where the hunter of deer and the warrior trod To his hills that encircle the sea.' This may be called roughing it— slovenly— coarse— rude— artless — unscientific. But we say no— it is your only coursing. Gods! with what a bounding bosom the schoolboy salutes the dawning of the cool— clear— crisp, yes, crisp October morn ( for there has been a slight frost, and the almost leafless hedgerows are all glittering with rime); and, little time lost at dress or breakfast, crams the luncheon into his pouch, and away to the Trysting- hill Farmhouse, which he fears the gamekeeper and his grews will have left ere he can run across the two long Scotch miles of moor between him and his joy! With step elastic, he feels flying along the sward as from a spring- board; like a roe, he clears the burns and bursts his way through the brakes; panting, not from breathlessness but anxiety, he lightly leaps the garden fence without a pole, and lo, the green jacket of one huntsman, the red jacket of another, on the plat before the door, and two or three tall raw- boned poachers— and there is mirth and music, fun and frolic, and the very soul of enterprise, ad- venture, and desperation in that word ; while tall and graceful stand the black, the brindled, and the yellow breed, with keen yet quiet eyes, prophetic of their destined prey, and though motionless now as stone statues of hounds at the feet of Meleager, soon to launch like lightning at the loved halloo!" Towards the end of the volume there is a long and picturesque description of the Moors aud all that they inherit. Let every true sportsmen hasten to purchase this volume and the second one that will shortly follow ft. PRACTICAL HINTS TO YOUNG SPORTSMEN. By GEORGE WEBB.—[ Simpkin, Marshall, and Co.]— This tiuy little book relates to shooting, points out the best method of cleaning, loading and carrying the guu, and to training setters, pointers, and retrievers. It is meant for the tyro, but many a man who thinks himself an adept will gather information from its perusal. It may be read in an hour and carried in the breast pocket of your shooting jacket. It is an excellent introduction to more elaborate treatises on shooting and dog- breaking. We recom- mend it to our yourig shooters unhesitatingly. THE BRITISH EXPEDITION TO THE CRIMEA. By W. H. RUSSELL — It is entirely superfluous to say a single word in praise of the universally known work of " The Times correspon- dent." This is the sixth part of it, containing no account of a great battle, but several descriptions of fights and skirmishes, and hard combats for " the rifle- pits." There are many racy anecdotes aud curious camp adventures. Some of the tricks of Jack, too, are very pleasantly told. Tha part will be read eagerly by those, if there are any, unacquainted with Mr Russell's letters to Th « Times. ROUTLEDGE'S SHAKSPEARE.— This part contains the conclu- sion of the " Merchant of Venice," and the beginning and greater portion of " King Richard the Second." The former play is fol- lowed by notes, copious ones, on each act, and then by critical opinions on the whole drama; the latter is preceded by a shert chronological dissertation, and both are profusely and tastefully illustrated. We forgot to mention a large number of useful foot notes. The text is carefully collated, ana printed on good paper and in clear type. This edition is the best of the cheap ones. THE MAGAZINES, & c. THE NEW QUARTERLY REVIEW.— AS a brief critical record of books published quarterly this periodical deserves attention and eulogy. Unlike the Edinburgh and Quarterly reviews, which put at the head of essays, not always critical, the titles of several books on one aud the same subject, the New Quarterly is divided into several sections, " Miscellaneous," " Tourists and Travellers," " History," & c, and in each we have short reviews of books which come under the title of each section, and which for the most part have been published within three months previously to the appearance of the review. It is, therefore, useful to the reader, as indicating the new books worthy of perusal or of purchase. Iu the present number there are thirty- four pub- lications, on nearly all subjects, noticed. We think the notices impartial, and will select as a specimen a passage from the second and third parts of " Memoirs of the Right Hon Sir R. Peel," just published by Mr Murray :—" Sir Robert Peel was the most practically persuasive speaker we ever heard. Though not an orator of the highest class, his talents in addressing a public assembly were most extraordinary of their kind, and he possessed a stock of qualities well suited for obtain- ing a foremost place in the English Senate. His voice was like a lute, pleasing, resonant, and not too loud; his words came clearly from his lips, without any pedantic formalism; his fluency was unbroken, aud ho had high histrioniG powers of de- livery. This able man, who iu private life was often soawkward, and almost rude, assumed an air of graceful amenity aud of bland insinuation when addressing the House of Commons, and it was difficult to listen to his melodious tones and dexterous play of parliamentary logic without being gradually biassed. He excelled in clearness of statement, aud his currency speech of 1819 is a first- class model of that particular kind of oratiou. No man couid approach an audience with - more art; 110 one could better choose the tone right for employing, and he was seldom thrown off his guard." In London the general reader has all sorts of opportunities of forming an opinion of new books. Provincial readers and those scattered tnrougheut our immeasurable colonies, sojourning or residing ill foreign lands are deprivedof such opportunities. Tothe classes last- mentioned the New Quarterly will prove a valuable informant. By the bye the periodical is sent to us very irregularly. If irregularity continue, we shall take no notice of the stray numbers that may reach us. BENTLEY'S MISCELLANY.— We should be ashamed of our- selves if we were to stint our praise of this number. It is from beginning to end very good, for the most part amusing, and the portion devoted to instruction praiseworthy. The first contri- bution, " Louis Philippe aud his Times," gives a rapid analysis of the causes that led to the revolution of 1830, of the charac- ters of Charles X., his ministers, aud of the reign of Louis Philippe. It is a brief history of France from 1824 to 1830, and the perusal of it will afford an accurate and general notion of the events that took place in France in the intervening period. We recommend it to the attention of the young historical student. Mr Dudley Costello gives us three chapters of his in- teresting " Millionaire of Mincing- lane." Then come pleasant papers, named " Life at the Watering- places"—" Mingle- Maugle," by Monkshood—" Life of an Arcnitect"—" Some Hints for the ' Twelfth,' " apropos of a review of a clever little book, " Shoot- ing Simplified," by J. Dalziell Dougall, guninaker, & c, of Glasgow. Theatrical readers will be much pleased with the " Life of Charles Kean," well sketched by T. P. Griusted. NEW MONTHLY.— This number contains eleven papers, all readable, and some very interestingly so. The best of them is an impartial criticism on the late Douglas Jerrold's writings, in which that popular writer is neither over nor underrated. In our opinion there has been considerable exaggeration since Mr Jerrold's death, touching his oral and written wit and humour. Not many of his works will be generally known twenty years hence, and we doubt whether many persons now read " The Man made of Money," or " St James's and St Giles's." His " Story of a Feather," " The Caudle Papers," and two or three of his plays may give him a quarter of a century of limited fame. We are of opinion that a great deal of fuss has been unnecessarily and unwisely made about Jerrold, and we do not think very highly of the private character of the man who, with a very large income, left a family to be provided for by theatrical benefits aud esprit de corps exertions. This criticism on Mr Jerrold is written by that very clever literary judge who styles himself " Sir Nathaniel." Of the other contributions, the best are the following:—" The Detective Officer," " Stein's Memoirs," and a " Trip to Norway." DUBLIN UNIVERSITY MAGAZINE.— We have this August in our old favourite, The Dublin, a greater number of articles than usual. Generally they are short and varied, and are the better for being so. The first is a sensible and spirited paper, " Sir Charles Napier in India," involving a criticism of Vols III. aud IV. of his life by his brother, General Sir William Napier. The general will not like the critique of his work. In its severity, he will overlook its justice. The achievements of Charles James Napier in Scinde from 1842 to 1845 prove him to be the greatest general and civil administrator of his day, and his conquest and government of Scinde are amply sufficient to confer upon him immortality. The account of his death at Oaklands on the 29th of August, 1853, is beautifully written, and no one can read it without being deeply affected. From the sixteen contributions to this number we select, besides the one just mentioned, the following:—" The Four Bards," " Madame de Sable and the Salons of her Time," " Shamil at Home," " The Fire- Damp's Family Circle," " My Sister's Husband," and " The Castle of Dublin." The magazine has in 110 way suffered uuder the new management of Messrs Hodges aud Co. BLACKWOOD'S.— Although the ever- verdant " Old Ebony" gives us but seven shoot* of his quality this month, they are so stout and full of rich sap that numerical quantity is finely re- deemed by exuberant quality. They are splendid saplings, worth a whole nursery of the ricketty ones too frequently exhibited by certain other badly- nursed periodicals. The show opens with the third part of " What will he do with it?" by Pisistratus Caxtou ( Sir Edw. Bulwer Lytton), containing twelve chapters of one of the most promising stories ever written by the great author of Pelham. We are sorry for those who cannot retain Maga for one week of this month. The remaining contributions have rainbow charms—" Manchester Exhibition of Art Trea- sures," " The English School and its Tendencies," " North ( late Professor J. Wilson) an Homer," " Scenes of Clerical Life- Janet's Repentance," " Afoot," part third, containing an inte- resting account of a pedestrian trip in the Peninsula; " Sea- side Studies," and a fine analysis— the second— of the " Life of Sir Charles J. ftapier," founded 011 the last two volumes of the memoirs of the great captain, by his brother, Gen Sir W. Napier. SPORTING REVIEW.— A pleasant evening companion on the Moors, until relieved by another from the same depot in Sep- tember. One of the best— it is truthful, we vouch for it- articles in the number is the first part ot " A Month's Fishing in Ireland." The rivers fished are in the county Cork, iu the ficinity of Buttevant and Mallow, including, of course, the beau- tiful Blackwater. The killing salmon- flies are named, aud those dressed by our good neighbour, Mr C. Farlow, 191, Strand, were every bit as good as those of Charley B.' s, a local angler. The author has gone into Clare, and promises for next month au account of his doings in the not sufficiently known waters of that wild county. The following are meritorious contributions: The Omnibus," containing some right good chit- chat about the sporting events of last month ; " Frank Welton, a Sporting Sketch," by Cecil; " Sporting OUa Podrida," a very piquant consommi, by Lord W. Lennox, " Reminiscences of Cambridge Forty- five Years Ago," by a Septuagenarian, a pleasant sporting Nestor, whose prattle about fields and colleges flows melli- fluously from his lips, " Confessions of a Notorious Poacher," by Hoary Frost, and " Approaching Grouse Season in the Grampians." THE NATIONAL MAGAZINE.— This new periodical is edited by two clever men, remarkable for sound judgment and good taste. The literary contributions are very numerous and care- fully selected, whether tales, anecdotes, or domestic ornamental instructions. It is profusely illustrated, chiefly by engravings of popular pictures from recent exhibitions. The engravings " Hinda" ( Lalla Rookli), " Waiting for Legal Advice," " Did it Pout with its Bessy?" and " The Sisters' School," are very pretty specimens of cheap art. We wish this periodical every success. TAIT'S.— Full of useful and agreeable communications— me- moirs of Geo. Stephenson and Handel, " Sketches of Jersey," " Tangled Talk," and." Twenty- seven Years of a Cosmopolite's Life," and several others. FARMER'S MAGAZINE.— None of our periodicals is more care- fully edited than this, and very, very few so carefully. We recommend it to the subscription of every farmer. This month contains thirty- four excellent contributions. LE FOLLET.— We have neglected for some time back this only fashionable monthly. All others are of Rosemary- lane produce. The present number contains three celoured plates— ladies in evening, visiting, and rural costumes. They are all pretty, but we like light green and light blue sitting in au alcove contem- plating the sea, or may be some picturesque lake, best. The bonnet and chevalure of light blue are of the first water. The lace jacket in the diagrams of head- dresses is a very beautiful pattern. SERIALS. PAVED WITH GOLD, & c.— The Brothers Mayhew are proceed- ing cheerily with their very attractive Unfashionable Novel. This title reminds us of an advertisement headed " The Ugly Umbrella," put forth two or three years by Mr Cheek, fishing- tackle maker, & c, & c, of Oxford- street. The " Ugly Umbrella" was a very handsome one, and the Unfashionable Novel will be a pet amongst fashionables. Patrician pantiiers, who affect ( they would make gobes- mouches believe so, at least) nothing but the icicles of life will not fancy, ( apparently) the last chapter in this number describing " The Fight for the Championship." The Mayhews have proved the humanity of their dispositions over and over again. Their opinions on boxing, therefore, cannot be traced to hart- heartedness. Read the following, stiletto knife- grinders :— " The most curious circumstance is, that this propensity to fisty- cuffing seems born in the British subject. Little boys of seven and eight, who, if they know anything of the use of the fist, must do so by instinct, will square up to each other, and begin to pummel their poor little round faces, and all the time they seem to be acquainted with the rules of the Ring, and no matter how blinded they may be by rage, they subscribe to the professional etiquette. Look at an English boy in a French school, and see what deference is paid to the boxeur by his com- panions, and how carefully they avoid bringing themselves under the penalty of his fist, flow to goodness can anybody fancy that it is possible to do away with prize- fighting in England ? It's born in us, and is not the cause, but the result, of o\-: r bravery. We are a hard- muscled race, and as long as we consider it our right to eat meat at our meals, just so long will our deltoid muscles be as hard as those of a gladiator, and our courage as reckless and impulsive as that of a bulldog. Who would wish to change his bold English nature for the deceit of the Spaniard, or the treachery of the Greek ? Your foreigner, however much he may rave and fume at the insult given iu the day, prepares to aveDge it with the stiletto in the dark. Your Englishman cannot muzzle and cage his lion until a safe time comes for repayment of the injury, and a blow from him is as natural as a kick from a racer, the result of high training. If he thinks over his wrongs, he forgives them. What animal is more useless than a racer ? Four or five times in the year it has to fly like the wind over a mile or two of ground, and yet for this result the training of each animal costs more than a college education, and an amount of care is shown which no professor could afford to devote to his pupil. The only good re- sulting from racing is the improvement of the breed of English horses. You have only to travel twenty miles out of England to understand the difference between the round- nosed, big- headed steed of the foreigner, and the high- spirited, exquisitely- proportioned animal of our own country. This training of horses is as much Eng- lish as the art of boxing, and whether it be on the Champ de Mars, or the Petroveski plains outside Moscow, you will find your Euglish trainers great persons in authority. Pugilism has done for Englishmen the same as high breeding has done for British horses. The mere men who fight are of themselves low and useless. The result of their lives may be put down at a two hours' fighting match. But these mere sloggers and bruisers have a great influence over the courage of the nation, and in judging them, we have no more right to look only to the brutalities of the combat than we have to object to the dressing of a field because the manure has a disagreeable odour. The men who marched up the steep acclivities of the Alma owed their courage to the influence of pugilism. The sailors who, to prevent the escape of the enemy's ship, will lash the vessels together, owe their daring to the influence of the prize- ring. As long as we are Englishmen, so long will pugilism endure ; and when we cease to enjoy that brave character which influences the entire world, then the fist will be superseded by the dagger, and the " fair" fight give place to the midnight assassiuation. We admit it is a low kind of warfare, but still it is not a mere brutal display of strength. It is a science of great difficulty, and governed by laws wonderful for their generosity to the conquered, and their restraint upon the conqueror. These scenes are the last remnants of the days of the tourna- ment, and if they have not all the trappings and display of the mediaeval combat, they have in its stead more generous chivalry." The description of the fight from beginning to end is graphically and humorously written. DAVENPORT DUNN. THE MAN OF THE DAY. By CHARLES LEVER.— This is the second part of a new story by the inex- haustible author of Charles O'Malley. When we shall have perused one or two more parts we shall be able to form some judgment of this new venture. NORWEGIAN SALMON RIVERS. MR EDITOR : As at this moment there are so many of our countrymen aspirants for the sport and eager in pursuit of catching salmon in Norway, allow me ( through your medium) to offer them j ust one word of caution, not from any desire to check that enterprising and adventurous thirst for sport innate alone iu the blood of a true Anglo- Saxon, but from an honest wish to lay before " all those whom this may concern," a real account of what is more than likely may befall them if bent upon the certainty of finding some really good salmon rivers unoccupied iu that country. Although Norway is par excellence the country of all others for salmon, yet I have never found or ever heard of the rivers there being as " plenty as blackberries " ( a not uncommon delusion with many young Englishmen), and, with the exception of some eight or ten ( nearly the whole of which are held on very very long leases) the rivers are scarcely worth the fishing. The chance, therefore, for the would- be fisher is not a good one— in my opinion it is extremely " mild." I was myself induced to take a river in Norway, upen a verbal pledge given me that it was abundantly prolific. It certainly was so before the " scrapings " with nets had taken place, and fearful scrapings they must have been to have denuded it so thoroughly offish. In fine it is worthless now, and although it will be most likely offered next year to another but " too credulous and verdant a victim" it cannot for at least three years lay any claim to a position of ever being called a salmon river. As most Englishmen are beholden to their tolke or inter- preter to convey their wants and wishes, it behoves them to take care that the said individual does not take too lively an interest iu serving any one rather than the unfortunate and oc- casionally unsuspecting Briton that employs him. It has happened that, with savage pleasure, this monster has lured one to some wild locale, for the express delight that he experiences at seeing you " at work" on his pseudo salmon river. He having nothing to do, of course, enjoys this much, with the additional advantage of receiving a dollar and a half for the fun. I mean that he, knowing all the decent rivers are in occupation, and that the constant influx of applicants are on the increase, wantonly premeditates a trip of this nature, and thus ensnares his prey. If it is one's fault thus to be done, you will even admit it as a misfortune, aud as I am naturally consti- tuted with a few philanthropic feelings for my brother sports- ment, I will suggest a few hints for their guidance should they contemplate a visit to that singularly wild and glorious sportiug couiatry. lst. Never hire a tolke or interpreter from the sole recommendation of an hotel- keeper, but ask the British Consul in whatever principal town you may happen to be in Norway ( who are proverbially most kind, courteous, and obliging), and who will in all probability put you in the way of finding out what you require. 2dly. Be sure aud get the character, & c, & c, of the river you contemplate taking from its previous occupant, or, if you find that impossible, consult the consul, who will most likely be kind enough ( if he does not know himself) to assist you iu get- ting proper information. Lastly, avoid all second- hand carrioles and harness, the purchasers of which generally come to grief. Your carriole in Norway ought to be your treasure, aud in that wild couutry should you have a break down ( as will as likely as not happen if you buy such rubbish as I have been offered) great disappointments, much inconvenience, expense, and delay must necessarily be occasioned by so untoward an event, and so vale. — Yours, Ac, VIATOR. [ There is a great deal of truth aud sound advice in this short communication. It comes to us from Hamburg, duly authen- ticated. Wait a while, my friends, and call me a donkey if I do not find for you next year, in the British dominions, as good fishing, and at far less expense and trouble, than you will find in any part of Scandinavia.— EPHEMERA ] THE GAME OF CHESS.

JULY 31ST.— This far- famed and not- to- be- excelled ground was again the scene of a contest between the above sides, but, as on all other occasions, the Twenty- two proved too strong, winning in one innings with 44 runs to spare. The Eleven, however, not- withstanding their previous defeats, went down pretty confident' and were also strong. It gives no trouble here for the umpires to select wickets, as that task can be accomplished by merely placing the stumps in the ground and measuring the distance This is the state in which cricket grounds ought to be, and a good criterion of merit will always be the result. The noble owner and liberal supporter of this manly game keeps in attendance the following celebrated men, viz, Bickley, R. C. Tinley, Willsher, and Roby, not only to look after the groutid, but for the purpose of practice when required. The best side again won the toss, and his lordship sent in Willsher and Mr W. Nicholson to the bowling of Wisden and Caffyn • Willsher scored seven and got hurt, so much as to oblige him to leave the wicket, aud Mr Armitstead took his place, and having made a leg- hit from Caffyn was caught at the wicket by tne watchful Lockjer. Mr Marshall was caught at point, just as he seemed to get settled down; the ball was a popper, otherwise he would have escaped. Mr Nicholson had been playing well but could only manage a cut from Wisden for four. Lord Strath- more played for two singles and was bowled by a trimmer from Wisden. Mr Broughton played, as usual, a merry innings of 18, comprised of a five ( drive from Griffiths), two threes a two, and singles. Mr Alfred Payne began to get the United into difficulties, when the Surrey lad stopped his career- he made a leg- hit from Bell for five, and with a two and singles' his innings amounted to 13. Mr Drake now joined Tinley, and in- creased the score from 89 to 108, when Tinley was caught in the slip, having contributed an innings of 40, composed of two fives ( cut and a drive), a four ( drive), five twos & c. Willsher now again came back to bat, and as soon as Mr Drake had accomplished his usual busy performance, he was caught at point— his figures being four fours ( two drives a cut, and a square leg- hit); a two and singles made up the total! Ihe Honourable Cecil Fieunes made a capital leg- hit from Wisdeu for four, when the signal from his lordship an- nounced dinner. After the repast, over which the noble lord presided, the players being seated on one side and the gentlemen on the other, the play again commenced, and Willsher remained until the thirteenth wicket, when he was caught by Bell; he played a splendid innings of 41, composed of a five ( drive from Wisden) six fours ( three capital drives and a square leg- hit); a three and a two, & c, made up the total. The Honourable W. Fiennes from this time kept lib wicket up until all were out, playing remarkably steady. The gallant major ( Goodlake) played a spirited innings of 11 comprising two fours ( drive and a leg- hit), and three singles Mr Phillips made a good cut from Mr Miller for four. Mr Mor- rier scored 11, and was given out by the decision of the umpire • the circumstance was much regretted, he being one who has always taken a lively interest iu the game; ho had a substitute allowed him, and having struck the ball, ran himself, as well as his substitute, and both got safe home; the wicket was put down from where the hit was made, aud an appeal followed which resulted in Mr Morrier going out. We believe since the occurrence at Lord's between Cajsar aud Wisden, when the late veteran Clarke put the wicket down, there has been a rule to the effect that if both hitter and substitute run, the former shall be out, but no one distant from Lord's ever knew anything about it; there is, however, 110 law to that effect, and there- fore the umpire was most decidedly wrong in his decision The case was quite different from that of Wisden aud Ctesar's as Ca;. sar's substitute never left his ground, aud therefore one must have been off, and that one was Caesar, who ought to have suffered for his substitute's ( Buttress) bad judgment Mr Morrier's figures were two threes ( drive and a cut), a two aud singles. The innings was finished at a quarter to six o'clock Mr fiennes bringing out his bat for a score of 17, made by a four ( leg- hit from Caffyn), three twos, and singles. Tne bowling was good throughout, and the fielding first- rate. His lordship made a very fine drive from Dean for a five, when Caffyn drove him on his wicket. Mr A. F. Payne made two good hits for fours, and Mr Homfray also handled the willow well for 11 made by a four, two threes, and a single. The wickets fell as follows : one for 11, two for 13, three for 17, four for 22 five for 55, six for 89, seven for 10S, eight for 129, nine for 133, ten for 139, eleven for 148, twelve for 172, thirteen for 175, fourteen for 187, fifteen for 208, sixteen for 211, seventeen for 213, eighteen for 218, nineteen for 230, twenty for 234. The United commenced by sending in Mortlock and Adams to the bowling of Messrs A Payne and Drake. The slows, it will be ^ seen, with the assistance of Mr Nicholson, did wonders— taking eight out of the ten In fact such a field to perform, so well placed for every man's hit is enough to beat any eleven that could be brought into the field— however strong. Some good play, however, was shown on the part of the United. Mr Miller started it; he made a good 13 by a four ( drive from Drake), a three, a two and singles aud was then caught by an extra slip. Wright contributed the same total by a five ( square leg- hit from Drake), and singles. He was in with Cafl'yn wheii the stumps were drawn on Thursday night Total, three wickets for 46 runs. FRIDAY. Wright fell a victim to the slows. Wisden aud Canyn did the same— Mr Nicholson informing them that too great a liberty must not be taken with one who can handle behind. Caffyn played a spendid innings of 26, composed of a five ( drive from Drake), four twos, and singles. In Lockver's 23 they were all singles, bar a three and two— several very'long hits being made for singles. The innings closed at a quarter to one o clock for 113, and they had therefore to follow their innings which they did, and at six o'clock all were out— slows again doing mischief. John Lilly white played a masterly innings of 28, comprising three fours ( two drives aud a square leg- hit from Drake), three twos, & c. Willsher bowled admirably and the wicket- keeping and long- stopping of Lawson were first- rate In fact, when cricket is played on such a ground where every blade grass is almost of equal length, and not only the portion between the wickets, but likewise the full extent of the play is equally smooth, it causes 110 surprise, when we refer to the score to perceive how few wickets fell to the single effort of the bowler This incident alone speaks for the condition of the ground and needs 110 further comment, This match formed one of the at- tractions of a gr& ud fete which his lordship gives annually so that the ground 011 both days was attended by a large assem- blage of people, bent on enjoying the liberality of the noble owner, who on this occasion throws open daily the beau- tiful gardens to the free use of the visitors. We might devote whole columns to a description of the gardens hung with innumerable lamps, and the buildings blazing with light, or of the artistic effect rendered by the undulations of the ground, producing in the obscurity of the night quite a fairy- like scene; but suffice it to say, that the pyrotechnic display on this occasion far exceeded any other of former years the weather being everything thing that could be desired. Although the United were greatly overmatched yet their work of labour was compensated for by the kindness and hospitality of his lordship, who did all in his power to render the match one of unity aud good feeling, and we think not one of the Eleven had cause to regret being opposed to such a team, under the able guidance of so noble a patron, who is ever ready to aid either personally or otherwise the advancement of cricket or the wel- fare of deserving cricketers. Next year a most interesting and well- contested match may be expected ; his lordship's idea is to play fifteen of the best ofjEngland against his Tweuty- two The match will be an excellent one, and excite immense interest. The Fifteen will be selected from both Elevens, and will in all probability take place on the last Monday in July, so that the match could be finally settled, if it lasted over three days. Shortly before the conclusion of the match a serious accident occurred to Mr Broughton and Brampton, who, in trying to catch a " skyer," ran with tremendous force against each other, which did them much injury, but, we are happy to say, the next day they were so far recovered as to be able to walk on the ground. Score: TWENTY- TWO. THE WEATHBR AND THE HARVEST.—^ The Sussex Advertiser says," Words fail to describe the brilliancy of the weather during the past week, concluding a July to which few memories can recall a parallel. We have had almost uninterrupted sunshine; indeed, such few passing clouds as have fleeted by have simply served to afford a brief respite from brilliant suns and azure skies. If the weather must be described in such words, our re- port of the crop must also be given | in equally " superlative" terms. Every account that reaches us partakes of the same character. It is admitted on all hands that the crop which now covers the ground has rarely been equalled. Wheat, barley, oats, peas, and beans, all promise a first- rate yield. During the past week an immense breadth of wheat has been cut, and peas, beans, barley, and oats are also " down" in some districts. Of wheat a large average has not only been cut, but carried, and carried in the most splendid condition. Tke present harvest promises to excel equally in quality as in quantity. The grain has had little or no rain upon it, and we have now attained a point at which it may be fairly anticipated that a very large pro- portion of the crop will be safely housed ere any damage can reach it. We hear of large yields in point of bulk, and heavy estimates as regards weight, 65lb weight per bushel, and from seven to eight quarters per acre are spoken of with great exultation by some growers, though, of course, this applies merely to indi- vidual cases. At the same time such facts may, to a certain extent, be accepted as a proof of the general abundance and quality of the grain crops of the present year. Samples of new wheat of fine quality were exhibited at our Saturday's markets in this district • and all tke markets in the kingdom will, no doubt, record the same fact ere the end of the current week. But if the harvest be unusually for- ward it also happens that labour is comparatively short; and as the crops appear to have ripened almost simultaneously, it will require extra energy and exertion 011 the part of our agriculturists to clear the ground sufficiently fast. We anticipate, however, that in this district a very large proportion of the wheat crop will be carted by the end of this week. The grain is so ripe, and the dryness and brilliancy of the weather such, that a very brief space after the corn is cut will suffice to harvest it; and it will be a great point to get it housed without having any wet upon it. As to prices, there is a tendency downwards; and in the face of such abundance as now loads the ground, both iu other countries as well as in this, no other result could be expected. At the same time holders do not seem disposed to press sales, and as farmers are at the moment busily occupied with harvest operations there is little pressure on our market. As regards the new grain, its quality will tend to obtain f ® r it prices not often offered for new wheat, and this will serve to keep the general average at a better point than would otherwise be the case. The turnips and pas- tures— especially the latter— are beginning to want rain, and show obvious symptoms of the effect of the long drought. In- deed, if we have not rain ere long, feed will be extremely scarce, and this will materially affect the price of stock. Farmers are already beginning to call out that their beasts will be starved if we do not soon get a downfall. This aceount will suit almost every district in the kingdom. Everywhere do we hear of the abundant harvest, and everywhere are there complaints of the want of rain for turnips, and other root crops and pastures." DEATH OF BARTHOLOMEW BRETHERTON, ESQ.— We regret to announce the death of Bartholomew Bretherton, Esq, on Tuesday morning, at his residence at Rainhill, at the age of 85 years. He was well known in the north of England as a large coach- proprietor in the days before railways were made, and in which he realised a handsome independence. He built and endowed a Roman Catholic chapel in the immediate vicinity of his residence at Rainhill. A WOMAN STABBED BY AN AMERICAN SAILOR IN SHAD- WELL.— On Saturday night week a woman, named Sarah Hamil- ton, went to a dancing- room in St George's- in- the- East. There she met with an American sailor, who accompanied her to No. 13, Albert's- place, Albert- street. Here a quarrel took place, and the landlord left the house to fetch a policeman. On his return with a constable Hamilton was found lying on the floor in great suffering from a stab in the abdomen, inflicted by the sailor, who had escaped. She was taken to the London Hos- pital, where she died on Monday morning. The sailor belonged to the Palestine, an American liner, nowin the East India Docks. He has been traced to Liverpool, but has not yet been captured. I Hon W. Fiennes, not out 17 G. S.

On Saturday his lordship, ever anxious to be iu the cricket field, made up a game, to fill the day out, but as it can only be termed a " game" we refrain from entering into details. It will be seen that Lord Stamford brought out his bat with 12 attached to his name ; he played a very fine innings, as the bowling was quite up to the mark. Before concluding our remarks upon this great eveut, we cannot refrain from giving publicity to the feelings of the United, who, one and all, have requested us to return their sincere thanks for the kindness they received while under the hospitable tent of the noble lord, and we must also add, how much Dean was affected by the very kind and able speech made by his lordship upon his ( Dean's) honourable career. The noble earl afterwards did him the honour to drink his health with " nine times nine." The weather was delightful, and happy will The Eleven be when the day arrives again to visit his lordship's splendid seat at Enville. The umpires were Sewel and Royston, and the scorers F. Lilly white and the secre- tary of the Stourbridge Club. Score: ELEVEN. Adams, b Willsher 24 Griffiths, c Brown, b Drake 0 Bell, st Nicholson, b Drake 26 Caffyn, c Fiennes, b Tinley 0 F. P.

ALL ENGLAND ELEVEN V TWENTY- TWO OP DERBYSHIRE. This match, for the benefit of Thomas Nix, an old and re. spected cricketer of Derby, was commenced at Derby on ThursI day, the 30th inst, and continued the two following days. 0$-' the arrangements and condition of the ground we can speak with the highest praise, thanks to Messrs Smith and Leach. The attendance each day was very good, and, we are glad to say, Nix had a good benefit. Play commenced by Derbyshire taking the bats first and scoring 73. N. Souter played a good innings for 7, Gregory made a long stand for his 10, all singles ; Attenborough stayed a long time for 5 ; Mr Story's was a capital innings by three, two, and five singles. At dinner time tour wickets were down for 33 runs, after which H. Stephenson took the bowling, and did much execution. The batters could not understand the ball breaking every time. The remaining 17 wiekets fell for 30 runs, Lord Stanhope's 7 heading the last 16. Julius Caesar and E. Stephenson represented the Eleven, T. Tinley and Atten « borough bowling. 27 runs were made before they were parted, Cassar was caught at long cover- point for a very good 17 by two fours ( leg- hit and off drive), one three, one two, and singles. Mr Daft was unfortunately run out for 5; he was playing very well, and looked like making a score. Stephenson next fell to Paxton, who had taken the bowling at Attenborough'a end. Mr Prest was caught by the wicket keeper. George Parr made 5 siugles, and also succumbed to Paxton. When time was called, Diver was not out, 5, H. Stephenson not out, 2— total 49, with five wickets down. On Friday, the two batsmen made respectively 19 and 18 before they were parted. Diver was caught for two fours, one three, one two, aud singles. Clarke joined Stephenson, when the latter was caught in slips for one four, one three, two twos, and seven singles. Clarke made a good 14, and was run out. Nixon was not out for 9. The two last wickets did not trouble the scorers. The Eleven headed their opponents 30 runs the first innings. The Derbyshire second innings amounted to 182, aud, take it altogether, was a very fine one; they tried nearly all the England bowlers. G. Parr with his slows took great effect. It was thought that the Eleven had a little too much work cut out for them on Saturday, but they had all confidence, knowing how well the wickets played ; the result was that they won by five wickets. Ca3sar and E. Stephenson were first to take the bats; the former was bowled for a three and a two. Mr Daft made three singles and a two; George Parr joined Stephenson, who was soon after bowled by Mr Birch's slows for a very fine and well made 19. Mr Prest and Parr made a long and determined stand, running all the runs off but three, when Parr, who had played a remarkably fine innings of 67, wanted to finish the match in one hit off the slows, he jumped in, missed, and was bowled by Mr Birch; his figures consisted of two fours, two threes, and nine twos, the rest singles; he was loudly cheered on leaving the wickets. Diver came, made a fine drive, and in attempting to run Mr Prest could not get home in time; his innings of 36 was a capital one, and he deserved every run he made; the figures were two fours, two threes, one two, the rest singles. Nixon came next, when Diver finished the match by making a two and a single. The Eleven won by five wickets. Score: DERBYSHIRE. 1st inn 2d inn W. Boden, Esq, b Nixon 0 b Hinkly 2 U.

On Wednesday, July 22d, a match was plaved between the members of the Oxford Circuit Bar and the Stafford Club. The game was a most pleasant and interesting one, and if the Staf- ford gentlemen had not unexpectedly been deprived of several of their best players, the result might have been different. In the second innings of the Circuit four good wickets fell for five runs, and the possibility of the required runs not being obtained was apparent. Mr Leigh and Mr James, however, proved a " strong bar" to the success of the Stafford Club, and by ac SUPPLEMENT TO BELL'S LIFE IN LONDON, AUGUST 9, 1857. 3 quitting themselves well, secured an easy verdict for their eleven.

This is alwavs a most interesting match, and generally proves the strength or weakness of the eleven more than any other. Uu this occasion Royston bowled admirably, as Harrow ground suits him well. Mr C. Barclay played well for Harrow, and Mr H. Barclay's fine fielding and brilliant hitting proved equally useful to the Town. Goshawk kept wicket well.

The Royal Artillery won the toss, aud took the first innings ; but owing to the disturbances in India, were deprived of three or four of tkeir best players, the score therefore was unusually small. Dame Fortuue, how- ever, favoured the gunners; the West Kent gentlemen having been late at the Bromley Ball the previous night, were in a similar position with the ball on the following day.

The return match between these clubs was played in Cobham Park, on Thursday, July 30th, but time would not permit of its being quite finished. When the stumps were drawn Cobham had 22 ruus to wipe eff in their second innings. The play of Mr Norton aud Mr E. Bligh was admirable ; the former gentleman's first innings was first- rate, but in the second he gave several chances, which were not taken. Mr Bligh made a splendid in- nings, playing steadily the good bowling of Messrs Hollands and Norton, and punishing their loose ones most unmercifully, with- out giving a single chance. His score was made up of an eight, two fives, four fours, fourteen threes, five twos, and twelve - 1 Score: COBHAM. J. Broad, c E. Devon, b Hollands 2 Accleton, c E. Devon, b Hollands 7 W.

Brett scored 55 in splendid style, in fact he was completely master of the bowling. On the Sleaford side Messrs Martin and Fawcett batted well. It will be seen by the score that Bell, Burbidge, Matthews, and Palmer made double figures on the Grantham side. The game passed off very pleasantly, and the return match is to be played as soon as convenient. Score: SLEAFORD. lst inn 2d inn W.

On Friday and Saturday, July the 24th aud 25th, this interest- ing match was played on the Coleortou Ground, and resulted, at one minute after seven on the second evening, in the defeat of the former, by 35 runs. Among some excellent cricket on both sides, it is pleasing to notice the beautiful pky of Mr Thornewill ( the Captain of the Burton) who, having done all in his power to redeem the fortunes of his eleven, displayed in adversity that true gentlemanly feeling which should animate cricketers, by scorning, when time was called, and his last wicket in, to rob his opponents of a victory, which on him at least, and those who felt w ith liim, could not reflect discredit, aud to sacrifice the spirit, to the letter of the agreement.

The return match between these clubs was played at Perth, on the 22d and 23d of July, and again terminated in favour of the Grange Club, who won by eight wickets. The Perth Eleven was a very strong one, and they have seldom had so good an opportunity of beating the Grange Club. Messrs Steedmau, Imrie, and Ross showed some fine batting, and the innings closed for 116. The Grange then sent in the Earl of Rothes aud Mr Patterson, who scored 54 between them, before the former sent the ball back to Puddiphatt. Messrs Dickens and Whig- ham also played good innings, the latter making a fine hit to square leg. The Grange went in for their second innings with 61 to get. The Earl of Rothes and Mr Patterson again made a long stand, scoring 40 before they were separated. The former, who brought out his bat, was presented with a ball by the Grange Club. Mr Duncan's wicket keeping was much admired; he is a young cricketer, and this is his first season at the wicket, where he promises to become very good. The bowling on both sides was good, particularly during the second innings of the Perth Club, when Sewell and Mr Ranken were seldom off the spot. Score: PERTH CLUB. lst inn 2d inn A.

The above match was played at Mallow, on the ground of the Mallow club, which was kindly lent for the occasion, on Wed- nesday, Juiy22d, and ended in favour of Templemore by 36 runs, a result attributable to the good and steady fielding of the Templemore, under the able management of their captain, Mr Vicars, who showed, both by his batting, bowling, and fielding, that he has not by any means forgotten his Rugby education. His innings of 48 was a very good one, obtained without a chance till he had scored 47. His slow twisters were very effec- tive, coupled with the " rapids" of MrW. Turnor, in lowering the wicksts of the Fermoy. In their second innings Mr Ker ob- tained his 21 in good cricketing style. For Fermoy Mr Surman's long- stopping was, as usual, good, but the ground behind wickets was, from the dry weather, rough and bumpy, which will account for the number of byes. Messrs Molony and Dawson in the first, and Messrs Stammers and Surman in the second innings, made good stands against the bowling, and had the fieldiug of the Fermoy ( Mr Wilson at point exeepted) been at all equal to that of their opponents, the result might perhaps hare been different, but no bowling, however good— and that of Fermoy was well on the spot in both innings— can win a match of itself, unless backed up by good and sharp fielding.

The nobie game has at last found a firm footing in Mona, cricket club, conducted with much energy, has lately been es- tablished at Douglas, which, we feel confident, is capable of affording first- rate sport to the members of any north of England club desirous of enjoying the delightful excursion, which a visit to our pretty little sister isle affords. We must, however, remind them that in tossing for innings it is advisable to cry " heads," as there is a great lack of " tails" in the island.
