A letter received in Paris from Caleutta, of the 3d Sep- tember, states that Sir Colin Campbell had left that city on the pre for Allahabad, where he proposed to establish his -quarters.

THE REBELS IN DELI FIGUTING AMONG THEMSELVES.

From Delhi we reesivé cheering intelligence : the insur-

oe had commenced. fighting among themselves, and the|

ving had transmitted a secret message to-Mr. Colvin, offering to give in, provided he was replaced in a position he occupied betor the revolt. It is to be hoped that this offer was re- jected with’ scorn, but the Government have acted so strangely on 80 Many occasions, that no act of theirs would surprise the public. It is believed that the final assault upon the imperial city will not be much longer delayed. Sir Colin Campbell, it is ramoured, has sent up orders to make short work of them, and General Wilsoa is not the man to retard the execution of such an order a single hour. In connection with the siege of Delhi it may be stated that Mr. Greathead,

try and ascertain from the wounded Sepoys or deserters the real cause of the revolt. In every case the reply was the same— the cartridge.” As evidencing the opinions of the natives themselves on the sabject, the following distich, composed by the King of Delhi, who was always proud of his pretensions to be ranked as a poct, may be quoted :— “The mighty Eaglish, who boast of haviug subdued Rooss and Iran; have been vanquished in India by a single cartridge.” LORD CANNING’S REFUSAL TO PROCLAIM. MARTIAL LAW.

A question whieh the Governor-General and his Council have had to decide, was, whether martial law should be pro- claimed throughout the Bengal Presidency. A petition had been sent to him, éalling his attention to the want of police, and the necessity for taking such a step. To this his lord- ship replies, that the substitution of courts martial for that of the ordivary courts of justice, would ‘“ be accompanied with much private inconvenience, uncertainty and hardship, and he is not aware of any commensurate public gain.” Martial Jaw will not, therefore, be proclaimed.

SAFRTY OF THE LUCKNOW GARRISON.—REBELLION AT BHOPAUL. . —COMMERCIAL CRISIS.

The Calcutta mail brings accounts to the 30th September. The waters of the Ganges and the Jamna are higher than ever. The excessive rains render the march of the troops

very difficult. The enemy was entrenched before Cawapore, | oy. ‘ Deg re — : them containing apparently clothes and heavy articles, that

on the bavks of the river. Cawnpore and Lucknow were provisioned for a month. At Agra the opium depot had been fortified, and had received supplies of troops and ean- non. A report was current that dissensions existed among the besieged in Delhi. The Govervor of Ualcutta had per- mitted the usual proces..ous at the feast of the Mohurrua, but the attitude of the Mussulmans was such that it beeame necessury to station the votundwers, with some guns, in the various public places, The Mohurrum passed over quietly

in every part of India. Lord Canning had refused to comply | with the request of the people of Calcutta, that be would |

proclaim martial Jaw. The mutineers inside Delhi only | A: 7 , several particulars, such as the description of a purse that

numbered 17,000 men, of whom one-fourth were cavalry. On the 30th of August, before Delhi, some of the enemy’s breastworks were trken between the Sammy-house and the town. All in the camp are elated at the prospect of offen- sive opertions. The Gwalior Contingent had deposed the Maharajah Seindia; and placed a Prince of the Delhi family on the throne.

The Alma brings dates from Calcutta of the 10th Sep- |

tember ; Madras, 15th September ; Point de Galle, 27th

September; and Aden, 30th September. The news from |

the North-west Provinces is not later than that received via Bombay. When the Alma passed Galle H.M. ships Pene- lope and Cleopatra, with troops on board, had reached that place, and 2,500 troops were reported to have already ar- rived at the Mauritius.

The safety of the garrison of Lucknow was looked upon as perfectly secured. Lutelligence, dated Lucknow, Septem- ber 2, had been transmitted by Gen. Neill. A second suc- cessful sortie had been miade, two guns captured, and a large quantity of provisions brought into the fort.

It is stated that the troops at Bhopaul have rebelled. The Begum, who continues friendly, had already sent away the Europeans in safety.

The Bank of Bengal refuses to make advances against Government paper or bills having more than 3) days to run.

FIFTEEN THOUSAND MEN BEFORE DELHI-~—DOOM OF THE CITY.

Our Satest accounts from Delhi extend to the 26th August. The Punjaub reinforcements, mentioned in last message, reached camp on the 14th August, and more recently an auxiliary force of about 2,000 men from Cashmere has marched to join the foree. It is expected to do good service. A new siege train from Ferozepore is expected by the end of August, and the Chief Commissioner of the Punjaub calculates that, by the middle of this month, the force before Delhi will be little short of 15,000. This estimate may be somewhat too high. There has been the usual skirmishing, with the same result. ‘The troops in good health and spirits. Wounded doing well. Supplies abundant. It is said that some overtures have been made by, or on behalf of, the King. They will not be entertained. The garrison have been levying contributions in the neighbourhood.

which points strongly to its having been the work of some miscreants, is, that the farm house where Mr. McKenzte’s re- /mains were found, was so far from his dwelling that it was impossible that sparks could have communicated to it from that quarter. A bara was situated between them, containing | hay and cattle, which was uninjured.

| Messrs. Robiusoa and O'Hare, the next neighbours of Mr, | MeKenzie, were the first to diseover the calamity, and im- | mediately sent word to Squire Hawkes, who at once started | for the spot, accompanied by several of the neighbours, aud ‘who afterwards sent for Leet, and brought him into town ‘yesterday morning.

is, that the remains of Mr. McKen-ie were found in his farm house, He must have got the alarm, and escaped to this | building, where be, was vo doubt pursued and murdered, and the house afterwards set on fire. Circumstances may shortly | transpire which will lead to something more definite respecting this deplorable affair.—S¢. John New Brunswieker Oct. 20.

The St. John Cowrier, of the 31st ult., has a lengthy article in reference tu this fearful tragedy, from which we make the following extract :—

The principal evidence before the Coroner on the adjourned “inquest, was that of a little boy, a son of Slaviu’s, about ten ‘years of age, which, if his statements can be credited, leaves no doubt about the guilt of the parties suspected. It appears 'that Williams, alias Breen, &c., was at Slavin's house on Sunday, and came iato town on Sunday evewivg, where he | slept all night, and went out to Slavin’s again on Monday | morning, after which he and the two Slavins, father and son, |went into the woods where they have since remained in hiding. This was elicited from the evidence of several parties | betes that of the little boy, but the principal light’ was thrown on the affair by that of the latter in regard to what took place at Slavia’s on Sutarday night and Sanday, after the fire. The amount of this was, that late on Saturday night his father, Patrick Slavin, brother of the same name, and | Breen, alias Williams, &e., returved to Slavin’s, after having

ibeen absent from forenoon, that they brought a bag with

} |

|

| they washed their hands and held a good deal of whispering and mysterious talking, and had a long purse, a pocket book, a Watch, and money in their possessson. He also said that next morning the three in qiestion went into the bushes nesr the house, and disposed of the bag and its contents, and that at a later hour of the day he saw them counting aud dividing the money, And on a re-examination, he further stated tha: he heard them on the Saturday night, after their return, speak about seeing the light still burning when they came into the house, and about how theamurder and robbery was effucted, particularizing the part each took in the transaction. Ln

Breen had, and the fact of the young Slavin having a number of sovereigns in his possession on the Suuday afternoon, the boy was fully coroborated by other evidence as to leave no! doubt on the minds of the jury about the guilt of the parties. | A good deal of the evidence taken before the Coroner |seemed more with a view to aid the police in finding traces ‘of the guilty parties, than such as pertained essentially to an | inquest, an assumption of the functions of the police magis- ‘trates, the propriety of which in a pablie court where |uundreds were hourly crowding out aud in, seems very ‘questionable, At least in this ease there ean be little doubt ‘out intelligence of what was doing ia the inquest “room was ispeedily eonveyed to the hiding place of the fugitives, not- | withstanding the Coroner's attempt to such being the case, by | prohibiting the publication of the evidence in the morning papers.

By evidence given yesterday shortly before the closing of the inquest, the police were enabled to secure the whold three persous implicated in the murder. They were found ina temporary shelter of boughs and birch bark made up in the woods, about haJf a mile from the house of a man of the uame of Haggerty, situated on what is known as the four mile road, above Patrick Brown's, and about ten miles from the house of Slavin, and seventeen from the city. .They were discover- ed to be there by the evidence of Haggerty and his son, who \were brought into town on Thursday evening, and who had i been supplying them with food, coverings, aud information of what was going on, and the police had twice been at Hag- | gerty’s house, and withia lalf a mile of them. | The public mind has been intensely excited with this tragic | ‘affair during the whole week, and last night when the cul-

picions aroused, and at once suspected that it was the dia- bolical act of some miscreants, who had first murdered the inmates, and then set fire to the premises, in order to hide all traces of their guilt—the ohjéct being robbery, as Mr. Me- Kenzie was thought to keep a considerable amount of money in his house.

We learn from Wm. Hawks, E-q., of Black River, who visited the ruins on Sunday, that from appearances there is no doubt but the inmates were destroyed, as he made a par- tial examination of the ruins, and discovered in the fire-place the remains of Mrs. McKeuzie and one of the children. The chimney had fallen down and covered their bodies, and when the bricks were cleared away, it was evident that the bodies had been thrown there, together, no doubt, with those of the other children. The blackened remains of Mr. McKenzie were found amid the ruins of another house owned by him, situated some distance from his dwelling, and which was ap- propriated to his bired men, but was empty at the time. [t had been occupied during the week by a young man named George Leet, and a strange aan who gave his name as Wil- lias, The latter, who is supposed to have been coucerned ‘ia the awful deed, had only been hired a few days before, and left ou Friday morning for the City, to take, us be said, his wife down, Leet left on Saturday evening to go to West
