Thk India' Mr tim.—An we peruse the numer nrivlite communications arnvioK from India, we ..r,bled to form a more distinct idea of the pro antl incident* of this deplorable mutiny.— F’ v . we believe, were acts of ineurref tiunary vio i, e Wed on more unsubstantial (-round*, or com rnitled with more indefinite view*.

So much of what is mted in oarraspomlefioe from the spot must have been drawn from imperfect m formation, Ural care becomes requisite in t.ie dis crimination and comparison of reports , but we oo servo enough to confirm our convicuon that no general concert could have existed bet weenie re- Ever* case°rd J delinquency bad modifications of its SSfegfes ifsfro<>pers—eome seventy or eighty men remained faithful and, what is especiany remarkab.e, these mien v.*ere led agtunet another oorp« m mutiny «ix daya afterward*, and behaved with unflinching firvaltv ar.'l courage Iu the Eleventh Kegiment though the officers of this battalion were the first victim* of the massacre, it appears certain that the work of murder was committed by the men of the s!Uth, and parties of the corps itself were said to be deserting the revolted and returning to their afie etocc. *At lielhi tiieso diers of the -idth refiamed from aliaekmg their own Officers, tbouj-h they fired m those of other regin/ents and the < th, also part nfthe Delta! garrison, is reported as in reality en tertain!; no cordis 1 sympathies with the rebellion.— lif the Native Artillery, it is expressly said that the gunner* were dragged into the mutiny by forte all sides we arc assured that the general population has exhibited rather good wnJ than hos tility towards us, and in many cnee.-, euectual nro tection ha-, been afforded to the tugitives from Ifeihi In that city aione and al Meerut docs any ' evidence of popular malignity as yet appeal , but at both these places the native rubble rose, we are told by thousands, and contributed in no small de er, eto the horrors of the scene. I t may be cxpec led indeed, tnat many of the atrocities reported will be found tra cable, as our information improves, not Pi the Sepoys themselves, but to the mobs, which availed themselves of the license attendant O, ThB Rajah* or native Princes of the country have .1k,..... • attachment to the Butish Govern menV aJI hav, supported us promptly With Iheir followers while the ({rent land owners, themselves equivalent to territorial lord*, liavcv without excep- Hoi, been lirm in their allegiance. In one of the re ports now reaching us in such abundance, do we perceive any statement or expectation that any lo cal lord will carry hia retinue or Ilia countenance to the misguided puppet proclaimed at Delhi. The discontent and the disturbance* together appear atrictly confined to the rank* of certain regiments in the Bengal army, notwithstanding the rebelious origin still attributed to the disaffection, it is a pure ly military revolt, und amounts, in faet, to little more than an intensified extwwilied expression of the same senseless spirit of many which has been discernible for some time] It becomes evident, as our knowledge of details increases, that the mutineers did not succeed with out considerable difficulty, even where there was the least power of resisting them, as at Delhi. It appears that Lieutenant Willoughby defended the great magazino, to the last, and that when com pelled to evacuate his post he set fire to the powder and blew hundreds of the insurgents into the air. That he escaped with hie Me from this fearful bar. aril seems certain, but whether he eluded the other perils of the crisis, and surviv es to enjoy the credit of his spleuded gallantry und devoting, we are not yet informed. At Meerut the examples of individual heroism were numerous. Lieutenant Miller, of the Ititth Native Infantry, galloped into the midst of the mutineers, satisfied himselt of the nature of their proceedings, and, by the aid of a revolver, fought Ilia way hack. A little Inter the same officer actual ly drove in Ins buggy into the heart ot t lie city, seized a man notoriously concerned in the massacre, mid carried him off to a gibbet, from which he was presently suspended. We have described this revolt os a senseless and causeless insurrection, und Unit it really deserves no other character must be admitted by all. fiver r person in tlii.i country, und, indeed, throughout slump,., who has the least knowledge of the subject, must be perfectly convinced that the apprehension of forced conversion, on which the Sepoys have based their mutiny, had no foundation whatever. We have never entertained or professed! the small est designs of extirpating Brahminisui or abolish ing caste, and uur general policy has been open to the opposite imputation of laxity or indulgence. It • is only in rare instances anil alter long hesitation that the authority of the government has been lent to the suppression of customs from which the lliip does themselves were thankful to bo relieved. It will be observed that not a syllable lias been uttered in any quarter about our system of taxation or administration. The disaffection is confined to u clip s who have, notoriously, nothing to complain of— who arc well paid, well treated, and well pen Shined after a tair term of m rvioe. All that the Sepoy now advances us a justification so mutiny and murder is, that the cartridges served out for his exercises are objectionably made, and on this head, when the murmurs were Cist raised, explanations were considerately furnished. Ah to national inde pendence, the Hindoos never conceive such a thing as their drt unis. If they were ever independent, it was before the < nmmencemsut of authentic history, amt the only act oftlm insurgents, carrying any po lilical character, has been the proclamation of a prim e, whoso rule, if ever it could be realized, would represent a conquest infinitely more ruthless nud less beneficial than our own. It deserves, how ever, to be especially remniked that even the mur derous dev. lopmcnt of disaffection now announced bus brought no other grievance to the surface than this miserable story ot the cartridge. As regards tim constitution of the army, it is said, indeed, that a better regimental organization would liavo pre vented the catastrophe by correcting the folly of the Sepoys; but as far as tbo natives themselves are concerned, it is still a mere delusion—a perfectly groundless terror— which lias affected the loyally ot the Bengal army, and brought massacre nud alarm into tlm thriving cities of Hindustan It is possible {lint the very emptiness of this discontent may rea der it more difficult to deal with . but the work must, be taken in hand and performed without negligence or delay ns soon as the restoration of order gives us fair opportunities of action. From Ou' London Globe. K.wnAßKinon or Titool's roll India. —At this season large draughts arc usually sent from the de pot at Chatham to all the Indian regiments, tor the purpose of keeping up their strength to the full es tablishment. These draughts this year will amount to about 3,000 men. The force, therefore, which will thus embark may be thus estimated : Men 2d Dragoon Guards 700 3d Dragoou Guards 7(H) 7th FusUeera 1,000 00th Kith's (3d Battalion) 1,000 88th Keqiment 1.000 Hide Brigade (3d Battalion) .1,000 Draughts—about 3,000 8,400 It' we add the tilth and ?Bth Regiments, which have before this arrived at Calcutta, we shall have already, wo may say, on their way,a force ot 10,- 000 men. Yesterday evening, however, there were also placed under orders the Ist Battalion of the Ist Kovals at Dublin, the 19th Regiment at Portsmouth, the 13th Regiment at the O ’rragb. and the 79tb Highlanders at Dublin, making altogether an addi tional force of 4,000 men, or a total augmentation of the European troops in India of 14,000 men. It will thus be seen that the measures taken by the Gov ernment at home to reinforce Gen. Anson are as prompt and vigorous as could be wished. From the London Time* , of June 30. Frightful Accident on the North Kent Railway. —The brief announcement which we were enabled to make in our yesterday's impression of the dreadful accident that occurred on Sunday night on the North Kent Railway have been more than vended by the facts which have been since ascer tained. The terrific collision which lias caused so great a loss of life as that of eleven persons, and which has indicted injuries more or less serious on upwards of thirty others, occurred a few minutes uefore II o’clock on Sunday night, between Blackheath and Lewisham stations. The Sunday traffic on the North Kent Railway is very heavy, and for the necresary accommodation of persons returning from Gravesend, and other, places of holiday resort, it is usual to run two late trains at short^juitervale—at 9.15 p, m. and 9.30 p. m.—from Strooa to London. This Hue of rai.wify is worked on Tver's electric signal system, the simple explanation of which is. that the station master at cue station must not allow a coming train to pass before the last departed train has been telegraphed deal* of the next station. The system, properly carried out, would prevent the possibility of acci dent. U appears that the 9.15 train from Strood left at the time appointed for its departure, and passed through 1 Blackheath tunnel without anything having occurred to arrest its progress, but on nearing the Lewisham station, which is only one mile from Blackheath. the driver found the s'gnala against him, and pulled up the train just beiv.re coming to the platform. The signals wer kept on. and the second guard was sent back with his red lamp to prevent the possibility of the expected 9.30 P. M. up train coining upon them. Several passengers alighted, but the large majority, observing the pre cautions which had been taken, kept their seats in fancied security, until suddenly, and without more than a few seconds’ warning, ike 9.30 P. M. train was heard rushing towards them. Before any movement of the standing train could by its owu engine driver, the coming - > vio’.eut collision with it. The effect HHP*U;ne eft* rails V a level with the body of the carriage—an open third class, filled with pas eengers—along which it swept, doubling up and crushing to death almost all the unhappy occupants, ami Severely injuring those who esekpt d with their lives. For a few moments the energies of all the oersons mar the station were completely paralyzed by the horror* of the scene; but as soon as the dread tul e-saraeft r of the accident was ascertained, as >l-..-i!. v. a* s*. nl.for, and the beat means at hand \vwe adopted tt> exulcAte the wounded and the dead. ,>1 v manager of the Southeastern l 'W a -' v ''! r, -:' ;SRI *-*.*• park, was soon on the N the exertions of a large number of laborers and others, who had been pre«s ed into the service at the moment the accident oc currt d.

It is said that tins at tack upon the police, was premeditated, but waste have taken place to night. Ah wc put thi. edition to press the riot was pro gr.-ning, and the consequence will no doubt be pain ful as the Germans were in a most excited state and quite frantic. Some of them exhibited knives and fire arms. From the Tribune nj Tuesday Morning. Further PAimcur-ARS.—About half-past five O'clock yesterday afternoon two of the Eighteenth Ward Police took a stroll with some friends through the disaffected district of the Seventeenth Ward.— The entire party were immedittely spotted liy the infuriated mob, n.- isted, as it was intimated, by members of the old police. Discovering that their presence was noticed, the officers and their friends commenced a retreat from the scene of excitement, pursued by tfie rioters, who fired a number of shots at them, one of the balls striking a tree within a few inches of the officer's head. He succeeded by the aid of a good pair of legs, in leaving hie pur auxers behind. The other officer, Mr. Crosby, ex member of Assembly, and one or two other friends, ran through Second avenue to Second street, through Second street to First avenue, and into the soap chandlery of Allan Hay. The employees, per ceiving an immense crowd approaching, instantly closed and fastened the doors, shutters, A'.c. The infuriated mob, finding* the doors closed against them, commenced an assault upon the build ing with stones, brick-bats, &.C., and also discharged several shots at the Windows, without doing any particular harm bcyohrl breaking the glass, &.C.— While the mob watt engaged in demolishing the doors and effecting an entrance into the soap fac tory, the officer, his friends, and the persons em ployed in the building effected their escape out ot a back door into the cemetery, and thence into another street. The mob, on breaking into and searching the premises without discovering the ob jects of their search, on the suggestion of one of their number started for the Seventeenth Ward Station House, with Ilio avowed intention of de molishing or riddling it ns they had done the soap factory, previously helping themselves to such frag ments of doors and window-sashes as were likply to prove serviceable, in their proposed demonstrations upon the Station House, as dulls, &.c. On reaching the corner of Second avenue and Third street, the mob halted, while some of the ring leaders advanced about half the block toward the station house at the corner of Bowery and Third stre t, and fired several shots in that direction. At this stage of the proceedings, the police station house t urn«d out and fired upon the mob, and com pelled them to retreat to the main body of rioters in Avenue A, which at that time, probably exceeded five thousand persons. - Commissioner Draper, General Ilall, ex-Alder man Briggs and G. W. Blunt, Esq., shortly after ward arrived at the seventeenth ward station-house; and although the former at first thought that a mili tary fore was unnecessary to quell the riot, after a short cruise in the direction of the disturbed dis trict changed his views, it is said, on the subject, and urged the calling out of a sufficient force to put it down effectually. Several regiments were im mediately ordered to muster at their respective headquarters by 111 o’clock P. M. The reporter was informed, upon reliable authori ty, that Mr. B.Montgomery, President of the Me chanics’ and Workingmen's Union, yesterday visit ed a large proportion of the tenant-houses occupied by German families in the neighborhood referred to, and found almost every room well stocked with firearms, ready for action in case of an attack either on the part of the police or military. At 0 o’clock tlic crowd was sli,l rushing back ward and forwaid between tlie Seventeenth Ward station a id First avenue, amt the Germans were attacking every person whose appearance made the impression on their excited minds, that he might be n Policeman. About that time a gentleman, re siding at Florence's Hotel, ivlio was accidentally passing, was set upon by about a hundred of them, and pretty severely, though not dangerously, beaten, lie finally got aw ay from them, minus his bat and a valuable breast pin, which he was glad to leave behind, in lieu of trie loss of bis life. The rioters would not pause in their brutal fury, until n German gentleman, who chanced to recognize him as an acquaintance, assuren them that ho was “no/ a Policeman!" And even then he had to seek refuge in a butchery, and run for his life through a grave yard. He ultimately intercepted the lions ton street stage at the Bowery, and was conveyed in it to his home. At that time the Americans were beginning to use their revolvers pretty freely, under this and similar provocations. The stages which pass in due route through the belligerent district were compelled to give the track to the rioters in proper regard to the safety of their passengers, and run round to get to and from the Houston street Ferry. At t'J o'clock the rioters procured a fife and drum and tried to rally the force toward the Station House, but the loaders of the rabble were not sue eessful in their attempts. The Germans were well armed and hail plenty of ammunition, which they purchased from a gunsmith at No. I I Avenue A.— Tin- keeper of the store, it is said, sold upwards of twenty pounds of powder, with bullets and shot in abundance ; before dark be sold out almost every weapon he had in the place. At Iff o’clock tlio crowd commenced to disperse, and no apprehen sion w*as felt as regards any further violence by the rioters. SPECIAL NOTICES. >OK AND JOB PRINTING.

SEALED PROPOSALS will be received at our office in Savannah until Saturday, the Ist day of August, 1157, for any nuiqber of shares, not exceeding i five hundred, of Southwestern Railroad STOCK, which Stock will be due and Issuable to the Georgia and Flori da Railroad Company on that day, and will draw dni ( dends from that time. 1 The bids will be opened at 1.2 o’clock M. on the Ist day of August, and the stock will be assigned to the highest bidder. This will be a favorable opportunity for a safe and profitable investment of money. The Southwestern Railroad was opened in 1847; and besides eight per cent, or four dollars per share of SICO, every six mouths since that time, it has invested nearly two hundred thousand dollars of surplus earnings in the Road, as capital, which is not represented by stock or bonds. The real value. of the stock should therefore be at least ten per cent, above par. The Road is secured to be built to Albany, on the Flint, river, by October next; and to Fort Gaines and Eufaula, on the Chattahoochee river, within the next two years. It is now one of the safest and best stocks in the State, and these extensions will largely increase into profits. The Road connects with the C. ntral and Macon and Western Railroads at Macon, with the Cohimbus Rail road at Butler, and extends southward to the Flint and Chat tahooohee rivers, in the heart of the best planting section ol Georgia. Bids should be endorsed, “ Bids for Southwestern Railroad Stock. ’ PADELFORD, FAY & CO.

The AMAZON is built of iron, and no expense has been spared in her construction to make her worthy of the patronage of the public. These Boats will compose the lice for the approaching season, and will, from their light draught of water, be enabled to deliver goods promptly at all stages of our river, and shippers by this line may rely on dispatch in the forwarding of their goods. The importance of keeping up & water communication between Savannah and Augusta, is too apparent to the merchants of Augusta, Savannah, and the interior, to re quire any advocacy here. Suffice it to say, that the* river communication is now, and has been since the com mencement of railroads, the regulating medium-for freight charges. No better evidence of this can be pro duced than the exceedingly low rates of freight between Savannah and Augusta, when compared with other points a few hundred miles on either side of us. Mr. M. A COHEN is still the Agent of this line at Savannah, to whom aßGoods should be consigned, which will be forwarded free of any charge for commission One of the Boats of this line will leave Savannah every other day, and discharge at this place tri weekly.
