As the steamer passed up the beautiful harbor of Pictou, the | Guards were greeted by the firing of a salute from the | battery by the Pictou Volunteer Artillery Company, to/ which they responded. On landing, the Guards were joined and accompanied by their Artillery friends (amidst a large | concourse of the citizens, who thronged the wharf), as they | marched onward through the principal streets of the town, | until the word “ [alt !’ was given by Capt. Rankin in front of the Albion Hotel, where a sumptuous repast was cheer- fully provided by the Pictou Company for their friends from Charlottetown. After the refreshments, toasting and cheer- ing followed, in which all heartily indulged. The evening

opened at the time, and at which were to be seen a display o: the beauty, fashions, and manufacture of the Pictoniaus, in all of which they can compare favorably with any of their Colonial friends.

The very hearty and cordial weleome which Capt. Rankin’s Company received from the Pictou Artillery Company, un- der the command of Capt. Blurdoch, cannot be too deeply appreciated. It was, indeed, a reception of the most social and agreeable character, in which the citizeas generally seemed to participate.—P. Journal.

NEWS BY THE ENGLISH MAIL. THE CALCUTTA AND CHINA MAILS.

Tus Pacteication or Gwation—Carrure or Reser! igzapers—Motisies iy Lower Bencat.—We have received our files of India and China papers by the Calcutta mail via Trieste. The dates from Calcutta are to the 4th July, and from |long-Kong to the 24d June. The Calcutta English- man of the 3d July says :—

“The subjugation of Gwalior and the reinstating of Rao | Scindia in his paternal dominions, is of much greater im- portance than at first sight would appear. That the rebels, after being everywhere defeated and dispersed, would make Gwalior their concentrating point, might have been plainly foreseen. Gwalior is the key to the Southern Mahratta country, and, therefure, if the city and fort had remained for any length of time in possession of the enemy, it would have been sure to kindle the flame of rebellion in the Western Presidency ; in fact, from what is reported, all the elements for an outbreak were ripe. Moreover, with a formidable body of insurgents holding Gwalior, Agra could hardly have been considered safe unless greatly reinforced, and it would thus have caused the withdrawal of a portion of our

Abeeree has succeeded in making a prisoner of Vakut Rao,

/one of the rebels in the Chunderee district, who has used

every means in his power to aid the rebels, and thus the traitors are gradually falling into our power. The most sur- prising thing, however, is that, notwithstanding the most de- cided proofs the rebels have of the hopelessness of their cause, there should be still individuals ready to embrace their cause,

At Cawopore, the Kotwal of the city, an intelligent and |

active Eurasian, apprehended a commissariat Gomashta in the act of enlisting Audmashes for the rebelleaders. About 40 already entertained by him have been apprehended, and they are to be tried by a court martial, which it is hoped will make short work of them. This is only another in- stance of the folly of placing any faith in native employes.

The rebels are causing considerable trouble in Lower Ben-

gal. In Buxar cutting down the jungle had ceased, as the

rebels were said to have left it, and Colonel Douglas with his force therefore proceeded to Benares. He had, however,

have marked their course by committing the most frightful mutilations or slaying every native who serves Government. Apprehensions were entertained even at Patua, and addi- tional troops have been despatched hence for the protection of the district. The state of these provinces may be ima- gined from the fact, that ladies are not permitted to travel beyond Benares, though the real danger appears to be rather lower down, near the Grand Trunk Road.

Tantia Topee, and the Nawab of Banda are still at large, and beating up for followers, and the whereabouts of that monster, the Nena, is enveloped in perfect mystery. The reward of £10,000 offered for his capture, dead or alive, has yet produced no result.

The periodical rains have at last set in, and somewhat re- lieved us of the extreme heat. To the agriculturist they have been an inestimable blessing, for the country was Jabor- ing under heavy drought. The accounts from all districts in Lower Bengal are satisfactory, and there is every prospect of an abundant erop.

But the enemy, before daybreak, covered by a crowd of skirmishers, advanced against me.

Before my line was uncovered, the enemy took ground to his right. | conformed, to prevent his ow'flanking my left, but very cautiously, lest he should draw me away too much to the left, and then fall on my right flank. This was probably his intention, fora body of horse was seen towards my right. J halted and fronted: the enemy did the same, and instantly opened a very heavy artillery, musket, and inatchlock fire on my line from the whole of his front, to which my batteries answered steadily. The evemy had taken up an excellent position, a little in rear of a rising ground, which made it difficult to bring an effective fire on him. I ordered my front line of infantry to he down, the troop of Horse Ar- tiliery to take ground diagonally to the right, and enfilade the enemy's left flank. In this movementa round shot broke the wheel of a Ilorse Artillery gun. Capt. Lightfoot took up an advanced position to his left front, which made the fire of his battery much more efficacious, Whilst the enemy were suffer- ing from the fire of the troop and battery, [ directed Captain Prettyjolin. 14th Light Dragoons, to charge with his troop sup- ported by Captatn M’ Mahon, 14th Light Dragoons, the enemy’s right flank,and I charged myself their left with Capt.

decided in a great measure the fate of the day. Severe combats occurred between the pursuing cavalry and the fugitives, who singly, or standing back to back, always took up, like most Indians, the best position the ground admitted, and fought with the desperation which I have described on other occasions. ‘he body wedged themselves so dexterously into the banks of a nullah, that neither musketry nor artillery fire could destroy them.

“DR. STONE’S LECTURES AND EXPERIMENTS IN ELECTRO BIOLOGY. We extract from a late New-Bronswick paper the following

notice of Dr. Stone’s lectures or the very interesting science

(of Electro-Biology. ‘This is only one of many of a similar

,character which has fallen under our notice since the learned Doctor has commenced his lectures and experiments in the

| lower Provinces, Ile has acquired considerable popularity in

(a very short time; and our citizens will be pleased to learn j that he is here to speak for himeelf, which he will do to-morrow |( Tuesday) evening ; and we have no doubt that ihey will readily /enerse the opinion of their neighbours in the adjoining Pre-

| Vinces, with respect to the merits of this gentleman. | “© We attended the Institute last evening with the full intention |of enjoying the hearty laugh which those who have seen Dr. | Stone’s experiments were said never to fail in enjoying, but we expected nothing more ; at the utmost we expected only to have a little interest awakened or a little cttriosity excited. We were entirely incredulous in all matters relating tothe alleged mesmeric state or anything in the nature of mesmerism. But how are we to disbelieve the evidence of our own eyes and our own knowledge of the characters of those persons who were ex- perimented upon on the platform? ‘The results of Dr. Stone’s experimets are truly marvellous, and we are no longer surprised that he succeeded in drawing immense andiences in London, Laverpool, Edinburgh and Dublin, or that the Doctor js disap- pointed in St. John by a thin attendance. He lectures again this evening. Dr. Stone enters briefly and popularly on the subject of Voli- } tion, witbout going deeply into metaphysics, and explains the | effectfof the will on one’s own musuclar action, and, in his own }science, the effect of the will of one on the will of another. | He then selects from any stranyers who wil} goon the platform, | several {he took fifleen last night) whom he considers the best subjects for ais experiments. [le then compeis them to close their eyes in spite of their utmost efforts toop-nthem He mokes them unagine themselves in all sorts of situations, in all! sorts of climates, cold and hangry, or surronuded by luxuries of all sorts. ‘The excitement aud energy which ihe subjects put tito their work, as for instance when digging gold, the hearti- ness with which they stan their feet and bat their hands when feald. the viger wah which one gentleman ran of in chase of his fown fingers which the doctor made him beheve were running jaway from him, all show that if anything else were wanting to prove Dr. Stone's influesce, it is certainly not the subdject’s jewn credence, Ail the persons experimented on were well known to some one in the audience, were incapable of decep- jton, and were unknown to Dr. Stone. Besides, if they had | been capapie of deception or known to the Doctor, no one will persuade us that they would have done what they did, sung, danced, &c , before an audience for the first time in their lives. without the Jeast perceptible token of nervousness or agitation. In fact there is no room to doubt that Dr. Stone exercises a wondeiful influence over his subjects, or that he exercises that inflnence in any other manner than that which lie avows, Re- ally, Dr. Stone’s evenings at the Institute should be well attend- ed. Wesay again that his experiments are not on!y extraord:- nary, they are marvellous ; and we are sure that no person who has seen them would willingly have Jost the sight.

To tue Eprror or tue Examiner.

Srr,—In case the public might, with Mr. McLaren, think that my communication to the Examiner of the 16th August is a retraction or apology fur any part of my letter to Dr. Knox, I beg leave to state to the public, that I do not ratract oue word of said letter. I merely exonerate, upon his own bare word and responsibility, the church mem- ber who was accused by one of kis own party champions of aiming a blow at my head with a cudgel,

I perceive a scurrilous letter in the Islander of the 27th August, by some dastardly coward, who, assassin-like, is either ashamed or afraid to appear in his true colors, but prefers to stab his neighbour in the dark. But, Mr. Elitor, whether he be Reverend or not Reverend, [ sha!] ferret him out, and give him due castigation. Such falsehoods and misrepresentation as he has published should be exposed.

Yours respectfully, »
