Times has tome out nobly on this point, and most seasonably also It hits hard at "the perfect neutrality" policy ci Col. Sykes and .uthers. It says most justly that such a pol. .14 on the part of the Company, is "too often the form of injustice toward their own creed." Always ready to yield, in a cow ardly spirit, to the prejudices of the natives, they drove so hard a bargain that we, the conquerors and masters of India, hardly dared permit the display of our own faith " "The consequence was, that the natives, ' , never having karat the true character of Christianity, invested it with a false char. .acter, and were ready to believe that Chris. flans could 'nuke others Christians by the ridiculous devices which might involve loss .4)l' Caste." As to the Archbishop's proposal, it is said, " Nothing, in our opinion, could be more politic than such a course. The Bible would be the very best proclamation which the Indian Government could issue to the In dian people; for all who read it would learn at once that the religion it contained could never be propagated violence." This is just the kind of argument which is likely to weigh with worldly politicians, as it ap peals to their utilitarian and politically self. ish feelings. Whether it will carry the day, and convince or silence, those blind haters of Evangelism, who have sought fault in it but could find none, remains to be seen. It is cheering, indeed, to have such a bold testi ,mony for the righteous cause from the Times, which concludes its remarkable leader by saying, t ' If we rely more upon our strength, and less upon the sufferance of our subjects —if we put our faith boldly forward, and let it speak for itself, instead of concealing it, lest it should; g.ve offence to idolatry, we may possibly find lower impediments in our mission of improvement, than we have ex. ,perionced under the admission now tercel nated " Colonel Sykes, as the representation of the , old Indian party, raised a lamentation over the extinction of the Company, when the Bill came down from the Lords, in which he •showed less than usual of his animus *against missionaries. SIR 'COLIN CAMPBELL is now the Subje ot of divided praise and blame in the army in India. One party, near his person, are very olllegistio, and point to the tall of Lucknow, the rescue at Cawnpore after Wiodharn's .defeat, the re occupation of the North. Wes. tern Provinces, as proofs of great skill and Generalship. Another party, including .great majority of the active officers, deny his claim; to excellence altogether. They say he is but an Indian Soult, who oan collect , one hundred thousand men, but when he has them he can put them to no use. They point, in proof, to the anarchy of the PrO• aces said to be subdued, to the invariable escape of the rebels, to the success with which the Sepoys too often outmaroh, and -oaten outwit our leaders. The general Anglo 'lndian opinion seems to think that when European tidies are needed, a siege is to be undertaken or a great battle fought, Sir Colin is excellent. But they consider that he is ignorant of ,guerilla war—distrusttul of the superiority of his troops—apt to believe that numbers, ar tillery, and a vast array of impedimenta essential to success. By this, they affirm, country distriets are allowed to run wild with anarchy, especially Oude, where armies .of rebels are found, and the Zemindars who had given their adherence to the British, are being put to death on their estates with out any power on our part to rescue them. " Sir Colin Campbell," says the Friend of India, " boa secured his Peerage. If he wishes to secure his reputation, he, must, during the hot weather, organize flying col umns after a new fashion. A regiment of Sikh cavalry, and another of European in. 'entry, carried on elephants, can go any where, and can do any thing—outtnaren insurgents in retreat, or cut up dispersing robbers. Without some such organization, based on the reversal of all the rules of Eu ropean warfare, anarchy will continue to reign in Oucle." The task given to Sir Colin to perform, has been arduous beyond precedent, and, as -stated in my last letter in the words of Mr. Russel, it has been well done, thus far. Very probably subordinates are impatient, but so was it in the criticisms on Welling ton, by his officers or the press, in the Pen insular war. There may be some truth in the opinion prevalent in India. Have lock had far more dash than Sir Colin, but then be was not •a Commander•in Chief-- one who must look before and after, and who is responsible for the entire army. The JEWISH COMMUNITY of London are in great delight at the final settle ment of their cause in Parliament, by the admitaion of Baron Rothschild into the Dorm of Commons. It was a somewhat exciting scene, Against the final motion of Lord John Russel, several members entered their solemn protest, on religious grounds; end certainly it was a novelty, to say the least, in British history, to find a Jew at the table, presenting himself to be sworn on the Old Testament, refusing to take the usual oath, "on the true faith of a Christian." Sev eral Cabinet Ministers voted against the final passing of the Bill, including Mr. Walpole, the Home Secretary, Sir H. Cairns, (of Irish Presbyterian descent,) the Solici tor General, and General Peel, Minister at War. In reading the jubilation speeches of the London Jews, at their public meet ing, I felt my heart deeply saddened to think that still the true " liberty " whe're with Christ makes his people free, 'is to them a stranger. The measure may con ciliate them toward Christianity. But, after all, that is doubtful. Nothing but the Spirit of God can take " the veil" away. " Oh that tbe salvation of Israel were come out of Zion !" The FETE AT CHERBOURG, to come off next week, is exciting much interest and expectation. The press, both of France and Bogland, discusses the subject in all its pa. litical bearings. Mr. Punch comes out with a very droll, y et pithy, "Imaginary. Conversa tion," which the Times copies at lull length. I dare say it is from Thaekeray's pen, and it is worthy of him. The 4 ' conversation is at Cherbourg, and the parties to it are the Emperor, Queen Victoria, and Prince Albert. The. Emperor " ventures to hope that she is pleased with his little improvements at Cherbourg !" The Queen replies, 64 Won den, I assure your Majesty—marners, to use your uncle's word on that pedestal; and the, greatest 'Fonder of all is that you are the showman.", She then goes on to hope that he will novbring any of these "won .clera" into actu:ii use. A great deal of badinage goes on, `in which Prince Albert sneers a little in Gerkanized English. The Queen at last remind's the Emperor silly that it was "with souk portable fortifica tions like those," (pointirk to her attendant fleet of men-of. war,) 44 bu not so strong, with which one marvel o gypt was voilted." (The play on the woki "marvel of Egypt," is ea account of that iNrd being vn the pedestal, at Cherbourg, Of 1110 mem orial pillar, brought from Egypt by the sauna in the time of Napoleon I.) The Em peror thinks "marvel," tram the QueNe tips, has reference to one of the plagues of, Egypt, and says: " I am devout, and yet my Scriptural knowledge fails me. Will your Majesty 1,1 The Queen (laughing,)—For shame said a marvel, not a plague. I meant the battle of the Ni/c. The Prince—And that cleared Eeypt of the plague of frogs for one time. Ha, ha! Ho, ho ! (Keeps on laughing all the way to the pavilion, which is exceedingly rude in His Rilai Highness.") I dare say the Queen, when she reads this, will laugh heartily, and perhaps Na poleon may &mile, too Yet the wit has , wisdom wrapped up in it, and such a liberty of jeu d'esprit reminds us that we have a free press and liberties worth preserving, • and patriotic Punch helps to keep up that national spirit which is a nation's life. But there is wit from another quarter, about Cherbourg. It comes from a Quaker quarter, or at least from the organ of " Friend" John Bright, and the peace party, namely, the Morning Sear. This• paper acted a very shabby part during the Russian war, and played into the hands of the common enemy of Europe. But, inas much as Mr. Bright, at the time of his elec tion fur gun making Birmingham, found it necessary to propitiate his future constit uency so far as to s'y that•order must be restored in India, b fore reforms could be introduced there, the Star has not been so much at liberty to indulge in the familiar diatribes of the peace party. When. Bright indirectly admits that the sword may be a stern necessity at times, what could the . ~ poor Star do, but turn pale, and almost die out, as compared to its "fierce for modera tion" light of the olden time? Now, how ever, it comes out against the war•alarms of the Times, in a aeries of mock heroic let- 1 , tern from an imaginary " Hector Croker, K C. 8., United Service Club.•" The fun is capital, inasmuch as it gives the carica ture of the exaggerated fears of France and French treachery. In one letter, the writer is represented as being thus panic:atm:lk for the Queen's personal safety : SIR-I really did not believe it. I could not believe it. I did not think human infatuation ' could attain to such a pitch of foolhardiness and folly. But I find it now actually announced on. official authority that the Queen of England is go ing to Cherbourg to assist at the naval demonstra tion of our natural enemies. Sir, be assured that she is going as a victim to the sacrifice. It is well known that for years past, when Her Mejesry has visited what is called her marine residence on the Isle of Plight, some of us have been kept in an agony of morial fear during the whole time of her stay there, from the full conylotion we had that the French would make a rush on the island and carry her away. But now, acting under the ad vice of imbecile, or rather ought I not to say of bribed and traitorous councilors, she is about to deliver herself up into the bands of her jailors. Is there any man of ordinary sense in the whole country who really expects ever to see our beloved Sovereign coming bock again from that transpar ent quet-a Pena! Think, Mr. Editor, of Louis XI, and the Duke of Burgundy—of Richard Cceur de Lion, and the Duke of Austria. Have we forgot ten bow Alai Dugald Dalgetty was treated by the Marquis of Argyll? To save the Queen, it is hinted, (with a sly hint at the Morning Advertiser, which the other day said, in its silly fears, that Parliament ought to regulate " the personal movements of the Sovereigu,") it is pro posed by Sir Hector Croker, that Her Majesty should be put under " temporary restraint" at Han well Lunatic Asylum, " a most healthy spot," and under Doctor Con. poly, one of the most humane of men, till "a deplorable aberration is past." Then, Sir Hector finds that large 1111111- hers of both Houses of Parliament are going to Cherbourg, and thus Queen, L ads, and Commons will , be captured. Let the writer speak for himself, that your readers may enjoy a hearty laugh. The opposites "chained together in couples," is a capital stroke, especially to one who knows all the parties. 1 find it confidently declared that large numbers of both Houses are actually preparing to follow Her Majesty into this villainous ambuscade. If that be so, then Heaven have mercy upon us. The rerfidious wretch will succeed at once in en trapping the three estates of the realm—Queen, Lords, and Commons—and consigning them all to a cruel and everlasting captivity, and here we shall be left a headless and helpless nation, en tirely in the power of this ogre. Sir, my brain is bewildered. The pen almost drops out of my palsied hand, as this horrible prospect rises be fore my imagination. What will the people of England say, sir, when thee picture to themselves the members of their ancient and venerated Par liament—the hereditary peers and the elect gen tlemen of England—working in gangs in Algeria or Cayenne, chained together in Couples—the Marquis of Clanricarde and Lord Shaftesbury, Lord Palmerston and Mr. Bright, Sir James Gra ham and Sir Charles Napier, Lord Derby and Mr. Cox, the Bishop of Exeter and Mr. Hadfield, Mr. Bentinak and Baron Rothschild, and so on, big• gledy piggledy, without any regard• to affinity or arrangement. And just think, sir, what would be the fate of some members of our Legislature, w h e n they fall • Into such hands l Imagine, for in stance, Mr. Spooner and Mr. Newdegate being delivered over to the tender mercies of the Jesuits. Do you imagine that the exertions of these emi nent Protestant legislators to expose the damnable heresies of the Lady in scarlet would he forgotten or forgiven? No doubt every Protestant in Eng land would pawn his last silver spoon to raise the ransom money for their deliverance. But does any body believe that any amount of ransom would be accepted, instead of the dear delight of subjecting our brave Protestant champions to the torture of the Inquisition ? But the spectacle grows too fearful. I must clear my vision away, exolaiming with the poet— • Dreams of evil spare my sight, Let that horror rest in night. Next, political journals discuss the open ing of Cherbourg politically. The Paris correspondent of the penny London Tele. graph says that secret police will be around the Emperor all the time at Cherbourg; that it is believed conspirators hope to avail themselves of the opportunity to kill him, if possible, and that he is very desirous of dis couraging the Parisians going to Cherbourg, &e. The French Jloniteur of the Fleet officially remonstrates with the Times as to its articles insinuating that the Emperor wishes to invade England, and asks the people of England to consider how absurd to suppose that hundreds of thousands of men could be got ready or landed on the shores of England, without observation. It also deprecates the folly of vast national ex penditure on the defences of our coasts. To which the Times replies that we don't want the French people to be troubled about our expenses—that is our business reminds the world how Napoleon I. had his invading fleet of boats off Boulogne, sixty years ago, and also hints that Cher bourg is a menace; that railways from every part of France now converge upon it, that the Emperor has been guilty in surprises ere now, and that all his power= arises from the coup d'etat, the surprise of 1851; and tf.at like his uncle, preyed on by a morbid passion, the result of internal disease, no. one knows what he Might attempt. The article in the Times is " slashing,' and in its insinuation as to a tendency to the mono mania of madness in the ease of Napoleon, is scarcely pardonable. The NEWS FROM INDIA indicates the re capture of Gwalior, after upwards of five hours' hard fighting, and the order of the Governor General that by salutes of artil lery, and in every possible way, this great suooeeS, tie disastrous to the rebel cause, should be made known over India. It is great susses, and to Sir H. Bose's famous army it is due. That fine officer had been ac tually thrice prostrated from sunstroke, and THE PRESBYTERIAN BANNER AND ADVOCATE. at the last moment only, Niihs be recovered so far as to take the command. What the troops generally are suffering from the same cause, is coming more and more to Tight. Since 1833, there has been no Summer heat equal to the present, either as to its tierce viess or long continuance. Mr. Vernon Smith stated in the House of Commons, last week, that he had beard of a mortality in the Indian army during this year, reach ing to twenty six thousand men I hope it is not so bad as this; but even in peace times, and with all the advantages of being " housed " in the hot weather, and during the rains, the mortality of English troops is large. Some of the British officers are martinets, and march their troops in their :scarlet uniform, and with stocks on their throats, in the burnin g sun. Even the Highlanders are compelled to wear their great plumed bonnets in notion, which Mr. Russel severely condemns. The Colonel of a regiment direct from Australia, landing at 'Calcutta, marched his men, with!. stocks on, :seven miles This was most cruel, and lit tle sympathy is fait when the story ends by informing the British pubEc that this officer died of sun apoplexy the same day. Dr. Duff continues to write to the Wit •ness, and still has his apprehension for the 'future. Lord Canning appears to be very *unpopular at Calcutta; but at the same time 'lord Ellenborough's conduct toward him, :as Governor General, is very severely con aiemned. Lord Canning, on .reoeiving the -dispatoh, proclaimed an amnesty to all but murderers in Oude. The effect is not yet Ikoown. That district is terribly disturbed, and also India to the Eastern side of Dude. Nevertheless, the Moulvie, (Mohammedan 'leader, cunning and able,) has been killed, and a great victory has been gained. The fall of G-walior, the restoration of Saindia to bils throne, and the capture of guns and treasure, tells sensibly on the home share market, especially Indian shares. J.W. P.

Office, No. 68 Fifth Street; Pittsburgh, Pa. The Telegraphic Celebration at Pitts; burgh. The demonstrations of rejoicing, which we, last week, noted as being appointed for Thursday evening, came off with much hilarity and great good order. One hundred guns were fired, from Coal Hill, opposite Wood Street, and the same number from Cliff Street. Cannon, artillery men, and ammunition were furnished from the United. States Arsenal. The illumination was extensive,, tasteful, "and splendid, and the torch light pr,ow• cession was grand. We never saw the streets Pittsburgh crowded with such masses of movie humanity—men, women, children, babies. Wholes households turned out. The kind father with the infant in his arm, and a little one at each coat skirt, and the mother following with a precious charge held by either hand, thronging, edging their way, and filling side walks, arid mid streets —all with pleasant faces, a courteous yielding, and entire respect each for another's comfort. Such manifestations of the happy social infin once of Christian civilization are, to us, most de lightful. We can silently mingle with the crowd, or, we can sit in a balcony and contemplate it by the hour, with deep thankfulness to the Author of the Bible, of the Sabbath, the sanctuary, and the Ministry. It is to him, and to his blessing, through these benignant institutions, that we owe our social well-being.

AUGUST 19.—Official intelligence has been re ceived that the supplies of mules and horses, so much needed in Oregon and Washington Terri t Ties, have been dispatched. About two thous and troops are at Walla, Walla. These, with the addition of the sixth regiment of infantry now on the way to the Pacific, is supposed that the force will be sufficient for present purposes. Troops are already in Washington Territory, and were probably ready to march on the Ist of August against the Indians, who attacked and defeated Cot. Steptoe. The extent df the defection is not known, but so satisfactory are the present mili tary operations that it is confidently atiticiPated at the War Department that the campaign will be an exceedingly short one and far less expensive than any former similar movement against the hostile Indians. The Treasury Department has been informed that the receipts at New York during the last week were nearly eight and a half millions of dol lars, all of which, excepting $600,000 from the customs was for the principal and premium on the late ten millions loan. Items TELEGSAPHIC FEAT.—The Queen's Mehsage was transmitted from Trinity Bay to all the prin cipal cities of the Union, as far South as New Or leans, and responses received announcing the joy with which it bad been welcomed. From Trinity Bay to New Orleans the distance, by the route of the telegraph wires, is nearly four thousand miles; add to this distance from New Orleans back to New York, and the message and its re sponses in this single direction alone, make a air cult of six thousand miles. It is Probable that the Queen's Message was transmitted over some thirty thousand miles of telegraphic wire in this country, and that it was simultaneously read, by perhaps ten millions of people. Such facts as these are demonstrative of the wonderful facilities of the telegraph. IIYDROPHOBIA,—The recent melanchally death of the young man Julien, at Mobile, from hydro phobia, has overthrown the statement of the pa pers in that city, that the disease was' unknown in that latitude.

The news of the success of the Atlantic Tele graph table, produced, so far , as yet heard of, not near the excitement in England; which, it did in the United States. It may, however, be quite as highly appreciated. It will certainly be both to the Government and the mercantile interests, a benefit not easily estimated. The London Tim', alluding to this, and to the system, as it will, shortly, be extended, says : Since the discovery of Columbus nothing has been done in any degree comparable to the vast enlargement, which has thus been given to the sphere of human activity. We may, now that this the most difficult problem of all has been solved, be justified in anticipating that there is no portion of the earth's surface which may not be placed in immediate communion with us. We know that we have in our hands the means of a practical übiquity. Distance as a ground of un-' certainty will be eliminated from the calculation of the statesman and the merchant. It is no vio lent presumption to suppose that within a very short period we shall he able to present to our reader', every morning, intelligence of what hap- Pened the day before in every quarter of the globe. • The intelligence of a Caffre war, or an. Indian mutiny, will reach us before the first blood that has been shed is cold, and we shall be able to economise the whole time consumed by. the ordi nary vehicles of intelligence: We see without un natural satisfaction, that the advantage of the discovery will be the greatest to, those countries the possessions of which are the most remote, and, therefore, that England has more to gain than any of her rivals. More was done yesterday for the consolidation of our Empire than the Wis dom of our statesmen, the liberality of our Leg iislature, or the loyalty of our colonists. couldever have effected. Distance between Canada and England is annihilated. For the purposes of mu tual communication, and of good understanding the Atlantic is dried up, and we become, in reali• ty se well as in wish, one country. Nor can any one regard with indifference the po'ition in which the Atlantic Telegraph has placed us in regard to the great American Republic. It has half undone the Declaration of 1776, and gone far to make us once again, in spite of ourselves, one people. To the ties of a common blood, language and reli gion, to the intimate association in business and a complete sympathy on so many subjects, is now added the faculty of instantaneous communica tion, which must give to all these tendencies to unity, an intensity which they never before could possess. The British Parliament was prorogued on the 2d inst., till the 10th of October. The Queen's speech, which is an uninteresting document, was delivered by a commission. The London Times attacks the speech with severity. Two and a half millions of specie had arrived in England. New loans by the Turkish and Chnan Govern ments were expected. The arrangements for laying the aced Sea cable were complete. More than a dozen vessels had foundered in re cent gales in the North Sea. Ismael Pacha, the Turkish Ambassador to Jed dah, bad arrived. France and England had come to an understanding on the subject. An the of fenders are to be punished, irrespective of rank, and the injured to receive indemnity. Two hun dred arrests had been made. The Queen bas granted the dignity of &Bayonet of the United Kingdom unto Sir John Laird Mair Lawrence, G. C. 8., Chief Commissioner for the affairs of the Punjaub. The London Times in a leading article, favors the annexation of Mexico to the United States. A prospectus had been issued for the establish ment of the Malta, Constantinople and Alexan dria Telegraph Company. The fetes at Cherbourg, at the inauguration of the Harbor and fortification, seem to have passed off pleasantly. Immense numbers were There, but thdprincipal parties were the chiefs of the two countries, France and England The Queen and Prince Consort were enter : tamed at dinner by the Emperor, of the French, on board the line-of-battle ship Le Bretagne. The Emperor, in proposing the health of Her Majesty and the Royal Family of England, made .a speech, in which he said : lam happy to be en abled to express the sentiments by which I am sac tnated upon this occasion of the Queen's visit to Cherbourg. • The facts do indeed speak for them selves, and prove that the hostile passions ' which were excited by some unfortunate incidents have never been able to alter the friendship which ex ists between the two countries, of the desire of the people to remain peace. ihave, therefore, the fond hope that if any attempt were made to revive again tim rancors of a former period, such attempt would be foiled with the good sense of the public, as the waves are baffled by yonder breakwater, which at this moment serves 'to' protect the squadrons of both Empires against the violence- of the sea." Wm. M. MAztour, Per W. E. Porter. Frames The Prince Consort, on behalf of Her Majesty, responded to the toast, in doing which he said: As The Queen is most sensible of the words we have just heard, which will forever be dear. tober. The Queen is doubly happy in having the oppor tunity, by her presence here, to join the Emperor in endeavoring to draw together as closely as pos sible the ties of friendship' which exist between the two nations.
