From the Times’ Correspondence.
THE INDIAN WAR.
; The preparations for the relief of the garri
son of l.nrknow are rapidly advancing. Col. '
■ Hove Grant, with Col. Greathead’s column, 1
; B,o'.Hi strong, reached Cawnpore on the 2nth
I October He crossed the Ganges on the 30th
■ with in guns, and his arrival at Alumbagh has
I been already reported. He met with no oppo
sition on the road, which, indeed, during the
lute operations, has always been clear, the en
emy concentrating all their forces around Luck- ■
now. The column will remain in the Aium
bagli till the arrival of the Commander-in-
Chief. who left Calcutta on the 28th October,
Sir Oolin Campbell travels like a courier, and
on the 3d of November he was at Cawnpore.
Colonel Berkley's eolaiuu is on the road.-
Colonel Hinde, with his force in Bewah, is
said to have received his orders; so has Colo
nel Lon-Men, who. with 5-2-1 Europeans, had
marched to quiet Jnanpore. Colonel Wrough-
ton, w ith most ot Jung Baliadoor's Gboorka, is J
already on the frontiers of Glide. iSome Sikhs ,
I are on their march from Delhi, and altogether
Sir Colin Campbell ought to have at least
I 5,000 Euro|>euns, and some 3,000 Sikhs and
' Ghoorkas at his disposal. He will not have so
many for the actual relief of Lucknow, and has
received a letter from Sir James Ontram, de- ■
daring that the garrison can hold out for some ! '
days yet, and begging that no thought of it*
i danger may interfere with a complete victory.
I It is understood that Sir Colin will, when all 1
is ready, cross the Groomtce, advance on the I
bank opposite the town, and from that vantage
ground shell the enemy out. He will then re
cross and perhaps enter the Itcsidem y without 1
the loss <d'a man. Lucknow, once secure and ,
f-rtified will become Ids headquarters, whence,
inch by inch, be may reconquer Onde. < t
It is generally understood that Nena Sahib. .
self-appointed Peishwa, has assumed the com- , •
mander-in-chief at Onde, and some profess to
see traces of ability and plan in the more re-1
cent movements of the rebels. That some j <
idea of concentration prevails among them is 1
obvious from the manner in which tlio detach- i ,
ed bodies have quitted Bengal. It is certain, I ,
too, that they light harder than they 'did.— |
Government has published a telegraph announ- '
cing a victory at a place called Burdee. near
Allahabad. Captain Peel makes the best of his
story, but it seems dear that the enemy fought '
with desjieralion, that our loss wassevere, und I '
that it wa« not considered prudent to retain so i ,
advanced a position. At Futtehserui again, \
near Agra,’the rebels were diilodged by a par- I i
ty from the garrison on the 2‘Jth of October. — ‘
Most of them tied, but a party seized a building ,
on the heights and died like men w ith the b.-’- :
ter ro-ind their nocks. Lieut. Glubb and 1”
privates were killed. T -*.UX

E. E. BROW V. Proprieter.
HAVING been fully convinced of the ex
ceedingly annoying inconveniences to
i i which the travelling public, passing over our |'!gH| |
various Railroads, were constantly subject, X
the Proprietor determined to erect and fit up, at the
most eligible and convenient point, a hotel that would
supply every demand and be entirely worthy the pa- '
, tronage of the public. He has. after much labor and
expense, carried out his original purpose, having se I
' levied a site immediately opposite, and within thirty !
yards of the Passenger Depot. Persons leaving on I
1 i the night trains can enjoy, at least, an hour’s sleep i
• longer here than at any other hotel in the city ; and j
I the table is furnished with the best the country as ,
fords; the rooms are comfortably ventilated and sup- |
1 plied with necessary furniture, and the servants are I
1 well trained and mav be summoned at any hour. ,
He has spared no pains or expense to meet every •
i want, and supply every convenience, and now every I
thing being complete, ho flatters himself his Hotel ai-
' fords equal advantages to any other in the State.
Remember this Hotel is immediately opposite I
the Passenger Depot.
