    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

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

The demonstrations of rejoicing, which we, last

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•

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

their way, and filling side walks, arid mid streets
—all with pleasant faces, a courteous yielding,
and entire respect each for another's comfort.

will be sufficient for present purposes. Troops
are already in Washington Territory, and were
probably ready to march on the Ist of August

known, but so satisfactory are the present mili

at the War Department that the campaign will be
an exceedingly short one and far less expensive
than any former similar movement against the

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

Great Britain.
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 fetes at Cherbourg, at the inauguration of

off pleasantly. Immense numbers were There,
but thdprincipal parties were the chiefs of the

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. That friendship has their Mu
tual prosperity for its basis, and the blessings of
Heaven will not be wanting to confirm it."
The Paris correspondent of the Daily News says
the Emperor has decided that all. France shall
join in a Te Drum at the moment when he and the
Empress are prostate at the Shrine of St. Anne, in
Brittany, on the loth of August. The imperial
Commands are promulgated in a circular ad
dressed by the Minister of Public Instruction to
the archbishops and bishops.
Appropos to the fetes, the Pm has a pacific
article, in which it speaks of the English alliance
not as any eventuality to be eclipsed and come to
life , again according to the necessities of the mo
ment, but as the programme of a line of policy
fertile in benefits for European civilization.

The character of Mrs K. was 'adorned by

gentle, she was highly respected by all who knew
her, and was especially loved by her husbandand
kindred who knew her best.., lier last Mime,
which was protracted and severe, was borne with
great fortitude and patience. The power of a

Dieu—On Friday, the 9th of July, at the resi

ELIMMETE MARION, in the 23d year of her age.
The subject of the above notice, at an early
age, connected herself with the Presbyterian
church of Chesterville, Ohio. Her experience at
that time was fall of promise, and her character,
and spirit, and conduct, during the nine years of
her connexion with the church, realised, in a
good measure, the hope then excited. She lived
an humble, prayerful, ;faithful Christian. Her
character purified and sweetened by the Gospel,
her interest in the spiritual welfare of brothers
and sisters, her prayerfulness, her patience
throughout a: long and lingering , illness, her
Christian hope sustained in suffering, and in
death, will endear her memory to her friends.
While they weep at seeing her earthly hopes dis
appointed, and mourn her loss so early in life,
they are persuaded that their lose is her great
gain, and that the object of so Many prayers and
hopes on her part is realized, in the presence'end
enjoyment of her loved Saviour. W.E.I

much respected. He served as an elder for many
years, in the 'mate Church, but maintained
great corals* toward all Evangelical Christians,
and especially toward Presbyterians. The lest
few months of his life were spent in much-suffer
ing, and his torture toward the end exorticiating;
yet during all this time, there was a remarkable
Christian resignation, connected with private de
votion, religious conversation, and frequent re
quests for others to lead in prayer. Under the
severe trial through which he wised, he appeared
to ripen rapidly for a heavenly existence, Which
his soul longed for with " lively hope.'" At last,
on the day specified, the struggle closed, and this
aged servant of God fell asleep, leaving excellent
counselsio be remembered, and eons and their
wives, aed an only daughter, to mourn; yet he
left them, and many others, to rejoice at the evi
