instances has nearly resulted in loss of life. The Police have been strictly enjoined to carry out the provisions of Section XXIV. Clause 5 of the new Act for lowrah, under which persons dis- charging fire-arms are liable tobe brought before the Magistrate, and fined twenty (20) Rupees for each offence.

It is obviously impossible to exempt the cautious, and include the incautious only . The Magistrate accordingly relies on the good sense of the Resi- dents generally to see the necessity of this order . J. J. GREY,

SIR, I HAVE the honor to report for the information of Government, and in the absence of my (' om- manding Officer, Lieutenant Willoughby , Artillery, supposed to be killed on his retreat from Delhi to this Station, the following facts as regards the Capture of the Delhi Magazine by the Mutineers and Insurgents on the 11th instant.

Grant , or until further orders .

for the purpose of scaling the walls , and which shortly after arrived. On the ladders being created against the wall, the whole of our Native Esta- blıslıment deserted us by climbing up the sloped sheds on the inside of the Magazine, and descend- ing the ladders on the outside, after which the enemy appeared in great number on the top of the walls, and on whom we kept up an incessant fire of grape, every round of which told well, as long as a single round remained. Previous to the Natives deserting us, they hid the priming pouches , and one man in particular, Kurreembuksi, a durwan , appeared to keep up a constant communication with the enemy on the outside, and keep thein informed of our situation. Lieutenant Willoughby was so annoyed at this man's conduct, that he gave me an order to shoot him, should he again approach the gate.

Lieutenant Raynor, with the other Europeans, did everything that possibly could be done for the defence of the Magazine, and where all have be haved so bravely, it is almost impossible for ine to point out any particular individual . However , I am in duty bound to bring to the notice of Gove'n- ment the gallantry of Conductors Buckley and Scully on this trying occasion. The former, assisted only by myself, loaded and fired in rapid succession the several Guns above dotailed, firing at least four rounds from each Gun, and with the saune steadi- ness as if standing on parade, although the enemy were then some hundreds in number, an.l kept up a continual fire of Muskotry ou us, within 40 or 50 yards. After firing the last round , Conductor Buckley received a musket-ball in his arm , ahove the elbow, which has since been extracted here . I, at the same time, was struck in the left hand by two musket-balls , which disabled me for the time. It was at this critical moment that Lieute- nant Willoughby gave the order for firing the Magazine, which was at once responded to by Conductor Scully firing the several Trains. Indred, from the very commencement, he evinced his gal- lautry by volunteering his services for blowing un the Magazine, and remained true to his trust to the last moment. As soon as the explosion took place , such as escaped from beneath the ruins, and none escaped unhur' , retreated through the sally port on the river face. Lieutenant Willoughby and succeeded in reaching the Cashmere Gate . What become of the other parties, it is impossible for me to say. Lieutenant Raynor and Conductor Buckley have escaped to this Station Severe in disposition

prevented my sending in this Report sooner. (Signed) 1have, &c. , G.FORREST, Lieut ., Asst. Commy. of Ordnance .

MEERUT, May 271857.

on . philus Metcalfe came to my house, and requested that I would accompany lim to the Magazine for the purpose of having two Guns placed on the bridge, so as to prevent the Mutineers from pass- ing over. On our arrival at the Magazine we found present Lieutenants Willoughby and Raynor, with Conductors Buckley, Shaw, Scully, and Acting Sub -Conductor Crow, and Serjeants Edwards and Stewart, with the Nativo Establishınent. On Sir Theophilus Metcalfe alighting from his buggy, Lieutenant Willoughby and I accompanied him to the small bastion on the river face, which com- manded a full view of the bridge, from which we could distinctly soe the Mutineers marching in open column headed by the Cavalry ; and the Delhi side of the bridge was already in the pos- session of a body of Cavalry. On Sit Theophilus Metcalfe observing this , he proceeded with Lieute naut Willoughby to see if the City Gate was closed against the Mutineers. However, this stop was neodless, as the Mutineers were admitted di- rectly to the Palace, through which they passed cheering. On Lieutenant Willoughby's return to the Magazine, the gates of the Magazine were closed and barricaded, aud every possible arrange ment that could be made wasat once commenced Inside the gate leading to the Park were placed two 6-pounders, double charged with grape, one underActing Sub- Conductor Crow and Serjeant Stewart, with the lighted matches in their hands , and with orders that if any attempt was made to force that gate, both Guns were to be fired at once, and they were to fall hack on that part of the Magazine in which Lieutenant Wil- loughby and I wore posted. The principal gate of the Magazine was similarly defcuded by two Guns, with the chevaux de frieze laid down on the in- side. For the further defence of this gate and the Magazine in its vicinity, there were two 6-pounders so placed as either to command the gate and a small bastion in its vicinity. Within 60 yards of the gate and in frout of the Office, and commanding two cross roads , were three 6 -pounders and one 24 -pounder Howitzer, which could be so managed as to not upon any part of the Magazine in that neighbourhood. After all these Guns and Howitzers had been placed in the several positions above named, they were loaded with double charges of grape. The next step taken was to place avins in the hands of the Native Establish ment, which they most reluctantly received , and appeared to be in a state not only of excitement, but also of insubordination , as they refused to obey any orders issued by the Europeans, parti- cularly the Mussulman portion of the Establish- ment. After the above rangoments had been made, Train was laid by Conductors Buckley, Scully, and Serjeant Stewart , ready to be fired by apre-concerted signal , which was that of Condue- tor Buckley raising his hat from his heal, on the order being given by Lientenant Willoughby The Train was fired by Conductor Scully, but not until such time as the last round from the Howitzers had been fired. So soon as the above arrange- ments had been made, Guards froin the Pa'ace cameand demanded the possession of the Maga- zine in the name of the King of Delhi , to which

N. B. After crossing the river, on the niglit of the 11th, I observed the whole of the Maga zine to be on fire . so that I am in hopes that litt.e of the property foll into the hands of the enormy . Park Serjuant Hoyle was shot about 11 A. M. , by the Mutineers, in attempting to reach the Magazine to aid in its defence. (True Copy) A.

PARA. 1. We forward to you copy of a com- munication addressed by us to Her Majesty's Government, on the subject of the advantages held out to Retired Officers of the Indian Armies on settling in Her Majesty's Colonies, together [ 1277 ]

with the copy of a reply we have received from theColonial Office on the subject.

To SIR JAMES MELVILL , K. C. B. India Board, the 4th July 1856.

SIR,

2. In reference to this correspondence , we are desirous that you should take into consideration , whether it may not be practicable and desirable to hold out advantages to Officers and Soldiers retired or discharged from the Indian Armies , who , from their age and circumstances , maybe qualified , as settlers, to induce them to settle in those localities inIndia, which may, after due enquiry, be deemed best adapted to Europeans. We desire to have your views upon this subject as soon as possible.

WITH reference to your letter, of the 9th of May last, respecting the acquisition of land in Her Majesty's Colonies by Officers of the East India Company's Service , I am directed by the Commis- the Affairs of India to transmit to you, for the information of the Court of Directors , a copy of a letter which has been received from the Colonial Office on that subject.

We are, &c. , (Signed) W. H. SYKES, And Nine other Directors .

LONDON, The 3rd September 1856 . }

In reference to this correspondence, the Board are desirous of calling the attention of the Court of Directors to the advantages that night ariso, if Officers and also Soldiers, of the Company's Ser- vice,were encouraged to settle in India, particular- ly in the various mountainous tracts in Madras and Central India, and also in the whole range of the Himalaya Mountains, from Cashinere to Sikhim.

To THE SECRETARY, INDIA BOARD. East India House, the 9th May 1856.

If such a system couldbe applied to Soldiers of certified good character, as well as Officers, it appears to the Board , that an essential benefit wouldbe conferred , not only on the Pensioners themselves, who are now often located where no land can be obtained for them, but would also tend to oncourage cultivation and civilization in various parts of India hitherto unfrequented by Europeans.

SIR, 1. WITH reference to the announcement made in the Despatch to the Go- No. 166 , para. 4 , dated 11th August 1856. verument of India, dated the 5th December last, I have the honor to forward copy of the communi- cation from that Government, to which the Despatch above referred to replies, on the subject of Retired Officers of the East India Company's Service not being allowed a remission of purchase money in the purchase of Crown lands on settling in New South Wales.

To SIR G. CLERK, Downing Street , the 27th June 1856. SIR,

to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the I am directed by Mr. Secretary Labouchere 28th Ultimo, with its enclosures, calling attention to the disadvantage at which Retired Officers of the East India Company's Service are placed, as compared with those of Her Majesty's Forces , in not being allowed, on becoming settlers in the Colonies, similar advantages in respect of the ac- quisition of land.

2 The advantages enjoyed by Her Majesty's Retired Officers , with rospect to the purchase of Crown lands in the Colonios, wero offered by Her Majesty's Government to the Retired Officers of the East India Company's Armies in the year 1836. The offer originated in a desire expressed by the Governor of Western Australia, that the settlement of such Officers in the Colony under his Government should be encouraged .ged. The boon thus offered was announced to the Armiesby the Government of India in General Orders, and its advantages were enjoyed by the Company's Offi- cers from this date until 1847, when they were withdrawn from them. These advantages have since been restored , so far as regards the Colonies of Van Dieman's Land and Western Australia .

In reply, I am to request that you will state to the Commissioners for the Affairs of India, that Mr. Labouchere is prepared at once to extend the advantages thus enjoyed by Queen's Officers to the Odiucrs of the East India Company, so far as the Colonies of Western Australia and Natal are concerned, and that he will communicate with Sir Henry Ward, the Governor of Ceylon, as regards the expediensy of including that Colony in the arraugoment .

of 3. In forwarding this communication, I am instructed by the Court of Directors to express their hope, that the present may be deemed a fitting occasion for a re - consideration of the sub- ject by Her Majesty's Government with the view restoring to the Officers of the Indian Armies the advantages of obtaining a remission in the pur- chase of land on settling in Her Majesty's Colonies generally, which they enjoyed from the year 1836 to 1847, thus removing any distinction, in this respect, between the Officers of Her Majesty and those of the Company.

With respect to New South Wales , to which you particularly refer, and the Colonies of Victoria and New Zealand , I am to inform you, that the control over the waste lands of the Crown in those Colonies has been transferred by Parliamentary Euactinents to the local Legisla- tures, and that the same is about to take place in (Signed) Ihave, & c. , JAMES C.

South Australia ; and consequently that, although the advantages hitherto held out to Officers of HerMajesty's Service are still obtainable in those Colonies, until the local Legislatures nay think fit to make other provision , the Secretary of State has no power to extend those advantages to other applicants.

By this you will perceive that all power in this matter rests with the Superintendents of Pro- vinces, and in each Province different Regulations have been established in reference to Officers and Soldiers who desire to settle.

I have, & c. , The same observation applies to the Cupe of Good Hope, where the control over the waste and lands of the Crown has also been recently surrendered to the Local Government. Mr. La- bouchere will transmit to the respective Governors a copy of your letter, in order that they may take such steps as they may think advisable.

EXCELLENT SIR,

Public Session of the Board of Revenue , No.

4th. He to whom a lot or lots shallbe adjudged , will deliver into the General Treasury, within fifteen days after the Sale , and a previous liquida- tion to that effect will be prepared in the Office of the Accountant, the total sun to which the said liquidation might amount ; and by presenting the Certificate, which will be obtained from the Trea- surer, an order will be despatchod to the first Store- keeper, to enable him to deliver the Article, which willbe duly attended to , the Purchaser being at liberty to open a parcel or parcels to compare the quality and class of its contents ; but in that case the expense of re-packing will be at his cost. 5th. The parcels of Tobacco which may be

separated mustbe destinél precisely for exportati- on under the General Rules to the other side of the Cape of Good Hope, the Exporter pledging himself to produce, within the term of two years from the date of delivery , a Certificate from the Spanish Con- sul residing in the place to which the Tobacco may be sent , stating the arrival and discharge of the same quantity which might be shipped on board of the Vessel which received it ; and, to complete this pro- mise, security must be given to the satisfaction of the Members of the Board of Revenue , guarantee- ing that in case the above- mentioned document is not produced within the fixed time , the parties will pay to the credit of Revenue the sum of six Dollars for each Quintal, the Meinbers of the Board of Revenue having power to admit as secu- rity the signature or guarantee of the House through which the Tobacco may be brought, or the person who might bid for the lot , provided the Board think it sufficient .

Asa Public Sale will take place on the 30th of Sop- tember next, at this place (Manilla, ) of 14,392 Quintals of Leaf Tobacco, in assorted lots of cach class, and in the proportions as specified in the annexed Copy No. 1 , and under the Conditions which will rule the Auction Sales, (Copy No. 2 ), I have the honor to communicate it to your Excel- lency, should you wish to publish it, so that it may come to the knowledge of the Commercial Community, who may, through their Correspon- dents in these Islands , make propositions at the time of Sale. It is understood that the Central Ware-houses of this Capital will be open from this date until the day of the Auction, with the object that the Merchants might examine the Article and make themselves acquainted with the quality, and its being properly prepared for ex- portation to any part of the World without risk of damage, or other defects which disqualify it for the different uses for which it may be destined.

May God preserve your Excellency for many years.

FERNANDO DEVONAGARAY.

6th . The parcels will be delivered all at once , well conditioned, to the satisfaction of the Purtcha- ser, who may, if he likes, weigh them before he takes delivery from the Store-house ; for it must be understood that when once the parcels are taken away, no claim of any kind will be admitted.

Conditions under which the Government has sold Tobacco in Leaf in the former Sales, and which has reference to the one which is to take place on the 30th September 1857.

1st. The upset prices at which the bidding will begin are to be those marked against each lot in the annexed Statement.

8th . As Merchants must feel more satisfied by examining various parcels and bales of Tobacco , than by seeing a few musters only, they might examine in the Store-houses of this City the pre- sent produce, as at the last Sale, in order to ascer- tain the quantity of each class, for which purpose the Store- keepers will show the parcels and bales that might be designated .

9th . Purchasers inust pay to the Clerk of the Board of Revenue their share of the Expenses, Stamp Duty, and the cost of Waiting , whatever might be necessary.

2nd. The whole of the Tobacco willbe deli- vered in bales of four Quintals euch , covered with mats of Plantain Trees, protected by Suburan , the Purchaser paying only the price for which the lot may be knocked down to him, as the cost of re . packing is included in the upset price. But if any one should wish to have parcels or bales made up of one or two Quintals only, a separate charge will be made.

3rd. As under the designation of Visayas To- bacco is ircluded that which is grown in the dif furent Islands, and it is not possible to deliver in

thisGovernment, which Her Majesty the Queen deigned to confide to me, I con- sidered it one of my first duties to give a most active encouragement to the different branches of the riches of these Islands,

One of these is the production and sale of Tobacco; and, fixing my attention on it and study- ing it, I have ordered everything necessary for improvement of thoculture of that Plant, in which I not only fulfil my duty for the interests of my Country,but also satisfy the wishes of Commerce of those Countries with which we have continued re- lations.

At the same time that the interesing improve- ment is effected, every attention will be given to the manufacture and packing , thus doing every thing in my power that the Consumers may be satisfied, and it will be at all times the duty of this Government not to omit any measures which may contribute to their benefit .

Firm and constant in this idea , I thought it convenient to make it known to your Excellency, not only as it maybe of interest to the Commerce of your Nation , but also as a proof of my constant desire that both Countries may have for their seou- rity a principle of continual improvement in the interests of Produce and Commerce.

NOTICE is hereby given, that a Sessions of Oyer and Terminer and Gaol Delivery, and also au Admiralty Sessions , will be holden by the Supreme Court of Judicature at Fort William in Bengal, for the Town of Calcutta and Factory of Fort William , and the places subordinate thereto, at the Court House, in the Town of Calcutta, on Thursday, the Twenty- seventh day of August next , at 12 o'clock at noon .

Should your Excellency be pleased to make this known to the Merchants of your City trading in this Article, inform them that this Government will look with interest to their wishes with regard to the making up and packing, and other conditions regarding Tobacco, paying every attention to their convenience, provided they are not contrary to the Local Regulations of this Country.

The Court will open on the first day of the Sessions at 12 o'clock at noon, and upon eacli suc- ceeding day precisely at 11 o'clock in the forenoon, ofwhich all persons are required to take notice .

and Statement aunexed. Ditto from ditto to ditto, datodditto.

The following correspon- dence from the Govern- meut of the Philippine Is- lands, relative to a Public Sale of Leaf Tobacco , to be held at Manilla, on the 30th of September next , is , un- der the orders of the Go . vernment of India, published for general information.

Government of the Philippine Islands .

To HIS EXCELLENCY THE Go- VERNOR GENERAL OF INDIA ,

4th. He to whom a lot or lots shall be adjudged , will deliver into the General Treasury, within fifteen days after the Sale, and a previous liquida- tion to that effect willbo prepared in the Office of the Accountant , the total sum to which the said liquidation might amount ; andby presenting the Certificato, which will be obtained from the Trea- surer, an order will be despatched to the first Store- keeper, to enable him to deliver the Article , which will be duly attended to, the Purchaser being at liberty to open a parcel or parcels to compare the quality and class of its contents ; but in that case the expense of re - packing willbe at his cost.

EXCELLENT SIR, As a Public Sale will take

Public Session of the Board of Revenue , No.

place on the 30th of Sep- tember next, at this place (Manilla, ) of 14,392 Quintals of Leaf Tobacco, in assorted lots of each class , and in the proportions as specified in the annexed Copy No. 1 , and under the Conditious which will rule the Auction Sales , (Copy No. 2) , I have the honor to communicate it to your Excel- leucy, should you wish to publish it , so that it may come to the knowledge of the Commercial Community, who may, through their Correspon- dents in these Islands , make propositions at the time of Sale. It is understood that the Central Ware-houses of this Capital will be open from this date until the day of the Auction , with the object that the Merchants might examine the Article and make themselves acquainted with the quality, and its being properly prepared for ex- portation to any part of the World without risk of damage, or other defects which disqualify it for the different uses for which it may be destined.

5'h. The parcels of Tobacco which may be separated must be destined precisely for exportati- on under the General Rules to the other side of the Cape of Good Hope , the Exporter pledging himself to produce, within the term of two years from the date of delivery , a Certificate from the Spanish Con- sul residing in the place to which the Tobacco may be sent, stating the arrival and discharge of the same quantity which might be shipped on board of the Vessel which received it ; and, to complete this pro- mise , security must be given to the satisfaction of the Members of the Board of Revenue, guarantee- ing that in caso the above -mentioned document is not produced within the fixed time, the parties will pay to the credit of Revenue the sum of six Dollars for each Quintal, the Members of the Board of Revenue having power to admit as secu- rity the signature or guarantee of the House through which the Tobacco may be brought , or the person who might bid for the lot , provided the Board think it sufficient .

May God preserve your Excellency for many years.

6th. The parcels will be delivered all at once, well conditioned, to the satisfaction of the Purtcha- ser, who may, if he likes , weigh them before he takes delivery from the Store -house ; for it must be understood that when once the parcels are taken away, no claim of any kind will be admitted . 7th. The Tobacco will be kept in the General Store-houses for that Article untilit is taken, under proper guard, direct from the place where it might be deposited to the Ship in which it is to be em- barked, due notice being previously given to the Officer Commanding the Corps of Carabineers of the Board of Revenue, and to the Collector of Conditions under which the Government has sold Tobacco in Leaf in the former Sules , and which hus reference to the one which is to take place on the 30th September 1857 .

Ist. The upset prices at which the bidding will begin are tobe those marked against each lot in the annexed Staternent.

Customs of this City. 8th . As Merchants must feel more satisfied by examining various parcels and bales of Tobacco, than by seeing a few musters only, they might examine in the Store -houses of this City the pre- sent produce , as at the last Sale, in order to ascer- tain the quantity of each class, for which purpoве the Store -keepers will show the parcels and bales that might be designated.

9th. Purchasers must pay to the Clerk of the Board of Revenue their share of the Expenses , Stamp Duty, and the cost of Writing, whatever mightbe necessaгу.

2nd. The whole of the Tobacco will be deli- vered in bales of four Quintals each , covered with mats of Plantain Trees, protectedby Suburan , the l'urchaser paying only the price for which the lot may be knocked down to hun, as the cost of re . packing is included in the upset price. But if any one should wish to have parcels or bules made up of one or two Qumtals only, a separate charge will be made.

3rd. As under the designation of Visayas To- bacco is included that which is grown in the dif- terent Islands, and it is not possible to deliver in

One of these is the production and sale of Tobacco ; and, fixing my attention on it and study- ing it, I have ordered everything necessary for the improvement of theculture of that Plant, in which Inot only fulfil my duty for the interests of my Country,but also satisfy the wishes of Commerce of those Countries with which we have continued re- lations.

At the same time that the interesing improve- ment is effected, every_attention will be given to the manufacture and packing, thus doing overy thing in my power that the Consumers may be satisfied, and it will be at all times the duty of this Government not to omit any measures which may contribute to their benefit .

In the matter of Isaac ) On Saturday, the 8th, Jacob Monashee, anIn- day of August instant, solvent.

Templeton and Carrapiet, Attorneys .

Firın and constant in this idea, I thought it convenient to make it known to your Excellency, not only as it may be of interest to the Commerce of your Nation , but also as a proof of my constant desire that both Countries may have for their secu- rity aprinciple of continual improvement in the interests of Produce and Commerce.

No. 151 . Fort William, Public Works Department , PUBLIC, The 31st August 1857 .

13. When the subject of the general grant of gratuities was brought before us in the year 1847, we objected to the proposition, because we preferred the plan of admitting to special pensions those servants who, though not entitled under the Rules , were nevertheless deemed deserving of considera- tion. The experience of the last ten years has , however, induced a modification of our sentiments , the special pension cases having proved more numerous than we anticipated, and the prospect for the future, in consequence of the rapidly in- creasing growth of the Uncovenanted Service , leading us to expect a still greater augmentation of similar applications which it might become very difficult to admit with due regard to financial considerations

Notifications . The Right Hon'ble the Gover- nor General in Council is pleased , as a temporary arrangement, to confirm the Benares Station Order , dated 24th July 1857, directing Lieutenant C. Tucker, 8th Light Cavalry, to take over charge of the Office and Establishments of the Benares Division Public Works , and appointing him to officiate as Executive Engineer, during the absence of Lieutenant Watson, or until another Officer be appointed.

No. 152 . The 1st September 1857.

With reference to Notification of the 21st August 1857, No. 145, it is to be understood that Carts conveying the Public Mails shall be exempt from the payment of Tolls at all Toll Bars established under Act VIII . of 1851.

W. E. BAKER, Colonel , Secy, to the Govt. of India .

14. In now acceding to your recommendation with the modifications which follow, we rely upon your exercising due diserimination in granting the gratuities, remembering that they are not to be givenasas a matter of course , nor the maximum to be granted in every case in which a gratuity is considered to be deserved. We cannot consent that the maximum of six months' pay shallbe granted in any case unless the individual has served with unblemished character for at least five years, and we desire that thesethese gratuitiesgratuities maymay be in future invariably substitutedsubstituted for the special pensions to persons not entitled under the Rules which have been hitherto granted.

It is understood that the Central Ware-houses of this Capital will be open from this date until the day of the Auction, with the object that the Merchants might examine the Article and make themselves acquainted with the quality, and itsbeing properly prepared for ex- portation to any part of the World without risk of damage, or other defects which disqualify it for the different uses for which it may be destined .

5th . The parcels of Tobacco which may be separated must be destined precisely for exportati- on under the General Rules to the other side of the Cape of Good Hope, the Exporter pledging himself to produce , within the term of two years from the date of delivery, a Certificate from the Spanish Con- sul residing in the place to which the Tobacco may be sent, stating the arrival and discharge ofthe same Vessel which received it ; and, to complete this pro- quantity which might be shipped on board of the mise , security must be given to the satisfaction of the Members of the Board of Revenue, guaranteo- ing that in case the above- mentioned document is not produced within the fixed time, the parties will pay to the credit of Revenue the sum of six Dollars for each Quintal , the Members of the Board of Revenue having power to admit as secu- rity the signature or guarantee of the House through which the Tobacco may be brought , or the person who might bid for the lot , provided the Board think it sufficient.

NOTIFICATION .

Ir is the melancholy duty of the Right Hon'ble the Governor General in Council to announce the death of the Hon'ble JOHN RUSSELL COLVIN, the Lieutenant-Governor of the North- Western Provinces .

Worn by the unceasing anxieties and labors of his charge, which placed him in the very front of the dangers by which , of late , India has been threatened, health and strength gave way ; and the Governor General in Council has to deplore with sincere grief the loss of one of the most distinguished amongst the servants of the East India Company.

The death of MR . COLVIN has occurred at a time when his ripe experience , his high ability, and his untiring energy , would have been more than usually valuable to the State .

But his career did not close before he had won for himself a high reputation in each of the various branches of Administration to which he was at different times attached, nor until he had been worthily selected to fill the highest position in Northern India: and he leaves a name which not friends alone , but all who have been associated with him in the duties of Government, and all who may follow in his path , will delight to honor .

The Right Hon'ble the Governor General in Council directs that the Flag shall be lowered half-mast high, and that 17 minute guns shall be fired at the seats of Government in India upon the receipt of the present Notification

NOTIFICATION .

THE Right Hon'ble the Governor General in Council , having appointed a successor to the late Sir HENRY LAWRENCE, K. C. B. , in the post of Chief Commissioner of Oude , desires to take the opportunity of testifying publicly in this form, as he has already testi- fied in addressing the Hon'ble Court of Directors , the deep sorrow with which he laments the loss of that eminent man .

In the course of a service extending over thirty- five years in Burmah , in Afghanistan , in Nepal, in the Punjab, and in Rajpootana,Rajpo Sir HENRY LAWRENCE was distinguished for high ability, devoted zeal , and generous and self- denying exertions for the welfare of those around him . As a Soldier, an Administrator , and a Statesınan, he has earned a reputation amongst the foremost .

Impressed with a sense of his great qualifications , the Governor General in Council selected him to be Chief Commissioner in Oude . In that position, from the first appearanco of disaffection amongst the Troops quartered in the Province, his conduct was marked by foresight , calm judgment , and courage ; and, if any thing could have averted the cala- mitous outbreak which has been followed by the temporary subversion of British Authority in Oude , the measures which were taken by Sir HENRY LAWRENCE , and the confi- dence which all men, high and low, European and Native , felt in his energy, his wisdom , and his spirit of justice and kindliness , would have accomplished that end. As long as there, was any hope of restraining the wavering Soldiery by appeals to their sense of duty and honor, he left no becoming means untried to conciliate them . When violent and open mutiny called for stern retribution, he did not shrink from the ( to him) uncon- genial task of inflicting severe punishment. When general disorder and armed rebellion threatened, he was undaunted, and the precautionary preparations, which , from the be- ginning, he had had in viow, were carried out rapidly and effectually.

He has been prematurely removed from the scene, but it is due mainly to his exer- tions, judgment, and skill that the Garrison of Lucknow has been able to defy the assaults of its assailants, and still maintains its ground .

The loss of such a man in the present circumstances of India is indeed a heavy public calamity. The Governor General in Council deplores it deeply, and desires to place on record his appreciation of the eminent services, his admiration of the high character, and his affectionate respect for the memory of Sir IHENRY LAWRENCE .

No. 1199 of 1857. The following Act, passed by the Legislative Council of India, received the assent of the Right Hon'ble the Governor General on the 11th Instant, and is published in General Orders :-

Fort William, the 21st September 1857.

ACT No. XXVIII OF 1857 .

No. 1198 of 1857. The following Notifica- tion, from the Forcigu Department , is published in General Orders : -

An Act relating to the importution , manufacture , and sale of Arms and Ammunition , and for regulating the right to keep or use the same .

Preamble.

WHEREAS it is expedient to regulate the importation, manufacture , and sale of Arms and Ammunition,

and the right to keep or use the same ; It is enacted as follows :-

No. 3813 , dated 19th September 1857.- The Right Hon'ble the Governor . General in Council , having appointed a successor to the late Sir HENRY LAWRENCE, K. C. B. , in the post of Chief Commissioner of Oudo, desires to take the opportunity of testifying publicly testified in addressing the Hon'ble Court of Directors , the deep sorrow with which he laments the loss of that eminont man .

In places to which this Section is extend- ed , written notice of the possession of Arms shallbe given totheMagistrate.

I. In any District or place to which the provi- sions of this Section shall be cxtended by order of the Go- vernor General of India in Council or of the Executive Government of any Presidency or place, every person shall , In the course of a service extending over thirty-five years in Burmah, in Afghanistan, in Nepal , in the Punjab, and in Rajpootana, Sir HENRY LAWRENCE was distinguished for high ability, devoted zeal, and generous and self- denying exertions for the welfare of those around him. As a Soldier, an Administrator, and a Statesman, he has earned a reputation amongst the foremost .

within such time as shall be mentioned in the order , or, if no time be mentioned therein , within one week from the publication of the order in the District or place, give notice in writing to the Magistrate or other Officer specified by the Executive Government , of any fire-arms , bayonet, sword, spear, spear -head , or other deadly weapon to be specified in such order, which shall be in his possession or shall be on his premises in the possession of any of his retainors or servants ; and shall also give immediate notice in writing of all other Arms of the like description which shall at any subsequent time come into his possession or into the possession of any of his retainers or

servants as aforesaid . The What to be speci- notice shall specify the num- ber and description of the Arms so possessed , and also, in the case of Arms so possessed by retainers or servants, the names of such retainers or servants and in what capacities they are respectively employed . fied in the notice.

Impressed with a sense of his great quali- fications, the Governor General in Council selected him to be Chief Commissioner in Oude . In that position, from the first appearance of disaffection amongst the Troops quartered in the Province, his conduct was marked by fore- sight , calm judgment, and courage ; and, if any thing could have averted the calamitous outbreak which has been followed by the tem- porary subversion of British Authority in Oude, the measures which were taken by Sir HENRY LAWRENCE, and the confidence which all men, high and low, European and Nativo, felt in his energy, his wisdom , and his spirit of justice and kindliness, would have accomplished that end. As long as there was any hope of restraining the wavering Soldiery by appeals to their sense of duty and honor, he left no becoming means untried to conciliate thom. When"violent and open mutiny called for stern retribution, he did not shrink from the (to him ) uncongenial task of inflicting severe punishment. When general disorder and armed rebellion threatened , he was undaunted, and the precautionary preparations, which , from the beginning, he had had in view, were carried out rapidly and effectually.

He has been prematurely removed from the scene; but it is due mainly to his exertions , jalgment, and skill that tho Garrison of Luck- now has been able to defy the assaults of its assailants, and still maintains its ground.

Penalty for wilful neglect to give notice . II. Whoever wilfully neglects to give such notice as aforesaid , shall be lia- blo, on conviction before a Ma- gistrate, to a penalty not ex- ceeding five hundred Rupees ; and all Arms in the possession of such person may be seized and shall be confiscated if the convicting Magistrate shall so adjudge: and in case the Arms of which he shall so neglect to give notice shall excced what may be considered reasonable for the private use of such person, he shall be liable to imprisonment with or without hard labor for a tenu not exceed- ing two years , and shall al -o be liable to a fino not excceding five thousand Rupees; and all the Arms and any Ammunition or Military Stores in the possession of such person or on his premises shall be confiscated .

Register to be pre pared, and cortificates tobe granted on 10- qucat,

The loss of such a man in the present circum- stances of India is indeed a heavy public calarnity. The Governor General in Council deplores it deeply, and desires to place on re- cord his appreciation of the eminent services, his admiration of the high character, and bis affectionnte respect for the memory of Sir HENRY LAWRENCR

III . The Magistrate shall cause to be pre- pared from such notices a register of the names of per- sons having Arms in their possession, and the number and description of such Arms ; and [ 1502 ]

At a Court assembled on Thursday, the twenty- third day of July, One Thousand Eight Hundred and Fifty-seven, under Act XXIV. of 1845, Mr. Douglas Sandeman, Master Pilot, on the Free List, was tried on the following Charges :-

dismissal, the Majority have in some sort found thomselves compelled to do so , in as much as Mr. Douglas Sandeman , being a Pilot on the Free Listand unsalaried, and the old Code, as well as Act XXIV. of 1815, both indicating loss of rauk or pay only as the secondary punishments for the offences of which he has been found Guilty, and both of theso being evidently inefficient or in- applicable to the Case, they have, of necessity, passed the severor Sentence .

But beg earnestly to recommend to the special consideration of Government the fact, that they would willingly have awarded a less severe puuish- ment had it been in their power to do so.

And they trust that this will not be overlooked .

FROM

To THE JUNIOR SECRETARY TO THE GOVERN- MENT OF BENGAL ,

For breaclı of Duty in the following Instances :---- First. That he being in Pilotage Charge of the Inward Bound British Ship Constantia , about the 19th day of June last, did, through unskilful performance of his Duty, suffer that Ship to grouud upon the Sand to the North Eastward of the Gasper or G Buoy of the Gasper Channel . Second. That he, upon the said occasion of grounding the Constantia,nstantia, was intoxicated, and unable, in consequence , to exercise proper judgment. Third. That after the Vessel had been got off the Sand much injured and leaking so seriously that it became necessary to beach her, she being in a sinking condition, he took no measures to secure her in a favorable position for saving her Cargo, but allowed the Vessel to shift from a hard Sand into a bed of soft Mud, where she became a Total Wreck.

RECOMMENDATION OF THE COURT.

4th . The Lieutenant- Governor desires me to remark that when an Officer in the position of a Pilot becomes intoxicated while in the porformance of his duty, and the loss of a Ship is the direct consequence of such intemperance, the Public safety (leinands that he should be punished with the utmost severity.

The Court desire respectfully to submit to Go- vernment, that in awarding this severe Sentence of [ 1507 ]

that may be tendcred for deposit in redomption of Promissory Notes given by Purchasers at the Sulo , will be received after 4 r. M. of Wednesday, the 14th October 1857, and no Treasury Receipts, in full payment of Lots, will be accepted after & P. M. of Saturday, the 24th October 1857.

4. In addition to the quantity above advertised for Sale, the following quantities, more or less, of Behar and Benares Opium , of 1855-56 , will be brought to Salo in the present year, on or about the dates specified below. The Board , however, reserve to themselves the right of altering these dates , should circumstances render it expedient to do so :-

5th. His Honor was therefore prepared to direct that Mr. Sandeman should be dismissed from the service of Government . But such very strong representations in favor of Mr. Sandeman have been made to the Lieutenant-Governor by some of the Members of the Marine Court, includ ing the two Mercantile Members, and by nearly all the Captains of Vessels at present lying in the Port of Calcutta, that in consideration of the very good character which you report Mr. Sandeman to have previously borne, His Honor will not re- fuse to accede to the recommendation of the Marine Court . Mr. D. Sandeman will be reduced from his present rank and standing as a Master Pilot, on the Free List, and placed at the bottom of the List of Mate Pilots according to their rank and standing, on this date .
