General Barnard, refering to the strength of
Delhi, is reported to have said, a short time
previous to Mis death, “Iam before a new Sebastopol.’’ Of course the late British commander knew the realities of his position far better
that they who, ata distance of six thousand
miles, were capturing on paper the ancient
capital of the Mogul empire. He was, by all
accounts, an able and most intrepid officer;
and the English government and people, who
at first laughed at any serious resistance to
their arms, have now recognized the soundness
of his views. They have to couquer a Sebasto
pol compared with which the reduction of the
Rusgiau fortress that se stoutly withsteod Pelissier’s feu d'enfer was but an easy task,
By every mail from India we get a clearer
view of this great rebellion. It grows more and
more formidanle as we begin to understand its
nature and extent. Itisno longer the aimless
mutiny of a brutal Sepey soldiery, but a rising
of the Mohammedan race throughont the length
and breadth of Hindostan, We do not doubt
but that, sooner or later. the ascendency of English power will be asserted, bat at what a sacrifee! The capture of Delbi alone will require .
an attacking force of 10,000 men, At latest
dates only 2000 British troops could be mustered before the city, and the services of this handfal were urgently needed in other places. as at
Cawnpore, where men, women, and children
. had been treacherously massacred, or at Agra, . quite !

. fore Delhi were suffering so severely from heat
aud cholera, and were so worn out by the determined sorties of the éuemy, that it was feared they would have to withdraw altogether,
and await reinforcements, which could not arrive much before christmas. Such anunfortunate movement would give great strength and
coifidence to the mutineers. They would be
evabled, four or five mouths hence, to make a
more organized and stubborn resistance than
they can now. But when Delhi shall have fallen—what next? Are weto believe that the
Sepoys will then lay down their arms, and quietly choose between the hangman’s repe and
being blown from British guos—for this, assuredly, will be the only choice given them? What

suggests, be swept from the face of the earth,
