Though ,’riven from their posts and otherwise enduring groat trial, they are generally ia places of safety. Upon, the native Christians, perhaps, the storm now falls in greatest fury. They, with our brctli- w ,"their teachers, and their families, di„nld he remembered in the prayers .fall the Churches—that they may he aved from the violence of their blood- Ain-ty countrymen — and that their faith may endure. The latest intelligence received gives little encouragement to hope for an car- V termination of the tragic scenes in tl,at country. The insurrection is rep ented as extending and growing more ihnnidablc,while the government troops ire making but slow progress towards y suppression. There is every pros- ■vet of a struggle of several years con- ixnancc, which is probably to ho the ,ct fierce and bloody the world has trt witnessed. Tlic deep and thrilling and long sits ained interest which the awfnl trage- 6 connected with the mutiny have | xikencd, and the magnitude of the NDgqucnces which are vet to flow ■ it, lmvo led to a very thorough dis union of its causes, in which much .■lit has been shed upon the character | .iJ condition of the people of India, and nature of the British rule over them, standing of Dr. Duff—the most ijtingnisliod missionary in India—his I dnowlodged ability and long rcsi- | .nte, make him high authority in re- ution to any mutters }>ortaining to that I Mintry, and will justify a somewhat n; quotation of his views of the ori- . a of the revolt, which we make from | srccent letter to George II. Stuart, Esq. fPhiladelphia, published in tho Pres- Ijtcrian: “As to the proximate or immediate mn instrumentality, I have no licsi- j blioQ in sayiiig, with tho utmost eiii- i-i.a-is, that the whole is the result of a Imj concocted Mohammedan conupira- 7 igainxt the British poicer, with a one to the rc-cstdblishmcnt of a Mo- tmeJon dynasty instead. You will remomher that in Moliam- wwlnnisin tlicre is an inseparable coin- ration of the civil and spiritual pow- and that its essential spirit is a fa- •‘i;al spirit of conquest and dominion. You will also remember that it was [ from Mohammedan rulers chiefly, aud “otfrora Hindu rulors, that the British Rested the sceptre of Indian dottmj- ha. The Mohommednns often perse «l:m conspirators, m various guises, went abroad Among the Sopoyn—gave cxngi'crated accounts of the new* cart ridge and insinuated that its intro duction was a cunning plot on the part of the British government, designed to break their caste and coerce them into a profession of Christianity. i he evil-minded suggestion gradual I v spread and took root in the minds of the deluded Sepoys. Their snpersti tjons prejudices were wounded in the sorest point. At last their minds be came inflamed, and like so many com hustihlc materials, hurst forth into open mutiny and rebellion—massacreing all the British and other foreigner native Christians, <m whom they lay violent hands,-'and covering the whole land with incendiarism, plunder, devastation anti blood. The titular king of Delhi lias been proclaimed Emper. - of India; the infatuated mutineers prt fess to receive and follow his decrees while, in some distant places, petty chieftains, alike Hindu and Mohamme dan, are beginning to proclaim them selves kings of their own respective districts and Provinces. The* whole country to the Northwest of Bengal is in a state of universal confusion and anarchy. Such do I believe to he tho true ac count of the riso and olgect of this dis astrons rebellion.” Tliis is ono explanation of this move meut which lias cost already so much blood ami treasure anti trial of Christian faith, and is likely to cost so much more There is another, however, which goes deeper into its causes. The discussion of tho subject in the English papers lias brought out some most appalling facts, which throw the greased cartridge far in the shade. There is a tale o 1 wrong in the government of Britisli In din, which must bring a blush to the the face of every one in whose veins flows English blood. The wrongs of the African have been the ceaseless theme of philanthropists in Europe and America, hut according to the showing of the English themselves, the African slave must now deliver up his mourn ing weeds to the down-trodden and out raged East Indian. It is now made to appear that the barbarities of the fren zied people which have shocked the ci vilized world, are but the repetition— the attitude of the parties being re versed—of what has been before enact ed in India; that even the refined cm cities of the mutineers have been learn cd from their English masters,—that the atrocities now perpetrated, are hut the fearful revenge of simitar atrocities continued through successive genera tions—that the English governors of India hnvo themselves licen preparing the people for this outbreak of outraged and frenzied fueling. We give some oxtracte made by the N. Y. Observer, from its English exchanges, some of which are almost too shocking to sub mit to our readers, hut are necessary to au understanding of the wrongs by which the people have licen wrought up to this awful fury. The Britisli Standard, says :■ “Let it never he forgotten, that in the terrible events which have recently transpired in the East, the English have been the tutors, and the Sepoys their pupils ; they have only been exeinpli- fying the lessons taught their fathers and themselves. Tho difference is sim ply one of circumstances; the public eye ia intently fixed on their doings, while our own are carefully concealed. On tho strength of history, however, tlKi Hiiidns with the.most torn- _ {h ~ |)oti|il)g Jiaa on tho prc . m; j cnt,cs * Donee it is that » Lout occasion been done by the nmti- lUJns generally xrero wont to vinous troops that cannot hi paralleled, if not oxcoedcd, from the history of England’s career in Ilindoostan. One of tiie most noted events of the hour, for its treacherous wickedness, has found a parallel in England’s treatment oftho Rajah of Benares: The fort was surrendered on oxpreSS stipulation for the safety, and freedom from search, of the females; hut, adds Mills, “tho idea suggested by Mr. Hast ings diffused itself hut too perfectly amongst the 8oldiery ; and when the princesses, with their relatives and at tendants, to the number of three hun dred women, besides children, with drew from tho castle, the capitulation was shamefully violated. They wore plundered of their effects, and their per sons otherwise rudely and disgraceful ly treated by the licentious people, and followers of the camp.” Mr. Patterson, ono of the Britisli East India Company’s commissioners, addressing the Company, says: “Those who could not raise the mon ey were cruolly tortured. Cords were drawn tight round their fingers till the flesh of the four on each hand was ac tually incorporated, aud hecaino one solid mass. The lingers were tlien sep arated again by wedges of iron and wood driven in between them! Otli- tith favor on tho*British as their doli Rrm from the cruel Mohammedan . v <*e; and wore well contont passively U>submit t<> tho British sovereignty, 15 1 in many cases with cheerful acqui- *Ci!DCC. The case of tho Mohammedans was : •% different. Looking on the Brit- • ? i as tlio aubvorters of their thrones, the supplantors of their dynasties, ‘ never could forgive them, and no- could ho peacefully reconciled to • !| «f supremacy. ^°r the lost hundred years they liavo u< * a 8 'el|ing, and longing, and praying, •’ only in private, hut in their public for the prosperity of the N um ° of Timour, in the person of its tynscutativc, the titular King or Em- :’ r t r °f Delhi. But the prosperity of • ‘lonso is only another name for tiic ’pitfall (1 f tho British, and the rc-as- fngoftho Mohammedan power. ^°ltmg, however, as tho native army Y* Yaitlifal, there was no chance of . Cc fc«; and so tlioir designs were kept ■ ^'Nyaiiec under the clo akor mask of Atl'l 40 t * 10 British throne. L i a circumstance occurred, of U". m® conspirators took baseadvan- iif' The majority of the Sepoys of ... 1,cn gal army are Hindus of high i tr f~hrafaninsand Jiajputs, the lat- - , military class of India, noxt in tfJ* i**. n k to the Brahmins—both ex- 'gnornnt, ami excessively sn- ;,f ‘‘"ww. Well, about the beginning „ ‘ 0 . Patent year, the government S l .]V c< . t° introduce the improved Kn- r>’ tire cartridge of which, as 111 England, is greased with any (‘'‘eluding, of conrse, cow’s fat, and HP.j ar( i—tuo abominations of the ^rd'* 3 au< ^ Mohammedans. Ordere issued to mauufacturo tliu-se in country; but when the obnoxious Liti ILn ^ thatonterod into their coni- ty;^? n cnjne to bo known, porempto- »riy /JJ c tions were given not to issue to ‘oni to the native army; and • ^Pomt of fact, army >uo wore actualh 2 «Mlie emissaries of the Mohauinio- aiul thrown across a wooden bar, upon which they hung with their feet upper most. They were then beat on the soles of their feet till the toe-nails dropped off! They were afterwards heat about tho head till tho blood gush ed out at tho mouth, noso, ami ears.— They were also flogged upon tho naked body with bamboo canes, and prickly bushes, above all, with some poisonous weeds, which were ot caustic nature, and burnt at overy touch. * * * * * * w Tho treatment of the females could not bo described. Dragged from the inmost recesses of their houses, which tho religion of tho country had made sauct uaries they were exposed view. The Virgius no many nuked to public were carried to the Court of Justice where they might naturally have look cd for protection, hut they now looked for it in vain, form the face of the min inters of justice, in the face of the spec tators, in the lace of the sun, these ten dor and modest virgins were brutally violated. The only difference between their treatment and that of their moth ers was, that the former were dislion ored in the face of day, the latter in the gloomy recesses of their dungeon. Other fcma]cs hail the nipples of their breasts put in a cleft bamboo, and torn off.” Judge Luard, one of the Bombay Judges, now returned, in n pamphlet recently published, says: “It is not, therefore, greased car tridges, attempts at conversion, or the assumption ot' native states, (although this point requires qualification,) which lias caused our downfall in India, hi|t long-continued, corrupt, Jtrospoiisiblo, resistless tyranny; and if every man who has been in India has witnessed as many diabolical coses of murder, jiuli cial bribery and robbery, deliberately perpetrated and deliberately upheld, as I have—and why should my experi cnee ho singular ?—then it was indeed high time for the natives of India to take matters into their own hands. I deeply deplore the barbarities wliicl have disgraced this mutiny ; the blood of our unoffending country-women, and of the helpless babes, murdered in coid blood, will, I doubt not, he fearfully Uud speedily avenged—perhaps, alas! repaid in kind ; but oven in the suffer ings of these innocent victims I can trace the vengeance we have been slowly hut surely dra a ing down upon upon ourselves for the deliberate bru tality native women have received at our bauds, without ever once creating an emotion in the hearts of those whose duty it was to protect them on the sj>ot, or ofthe British public at home.” “I have known respectable native officers tied up and flogged before the whole regiment, and then dismissed without any sort of inquiry; they did complain, but the commanding oflicur was related to Lord Dalhonsic, and, of course, there was no redress; one was named Hydor Khan, and his brother Gaffer Khan, died gloriously at Khalat, Nor are tho miserable ryots better off. Tiioir sufferings, their poverty, their degradation, are a matter of public no toriety, and at the bottom of this, as of all the disasters attending our Indian ride, is corruption, and again corrup tion. Corruption in the native officers and agents, encouraged and turned to profit by the European servants of toe Company; corruption again among these, winked at by the Government at home.” We cannot forbear adding to these the conluding paragraph which the Ob server quotes from an article in one of the English papers : No more thoughts of ‘vengeance, then, but of humiliation before the Gon of tiik Whole E.vktu. The language of the Prophet is only such as befits the mouth of England :—‘We have sinned and committed iniquity, and have done wickedly: O Lore, to us helongetli confusion of face, to our kings, to our princes, and to our fathers, because we have sinned against Thee: to the Lord our God belong mercies and for giveness.’ Let all England hear the words of the greatest Advocate that ever stood at her Bar:— We are accustomed to govern India country which God never gave ns —In/ means which God will never jus tify.' According to these confessions tho causes of tho revolt are much deeper than that popularly received. This does n&t at all detract from the enor mity of tho barbarity that has been displayed, but should abate that desire for vengeance which has been so free ly expressed in both England and America. Nor does it make any change in our desires as to the issue of the struggle. Notwithstanding the iniqui ty and wrong of the past, the tempo ral interest of India itself, and the inter ests of civilization and Christianiza tion seem to be identified with the success of the British arms. India will know no repose or stable govern ment for generations to come, unless the British ascendency is restored; and once restored, after such a rebuke, it may be reasonably hoped that the government will be more worthy of a Christian nation. The dependence of the Missionary work in that country upon the toleration of the British pow er, must incline every friend of Misr sions to desire its success. Approaching Launch of the Great EASTKUN. It is now inoro than three years since the lofty walls of iron, forming tho sides of the Great Eastern, first began to excite the won der of voyagers up and down the Thames, and as she approaches completion the public interest .• t 4.,.. , i.„ h v tlm fnpt increases. Enormous size, which is naturally ers were t ied, t\\l >} ,t A > the distinctive feature that first strikes the ob server, is, however, ono of the least of the mar vels that belong to the joint production of Mr. Scott Russell and Mr. Brunei. Wc have the assurance of tho former that the Great Eastern is built upon precisely the same model as every vessel he has constructed since his discovery o tho wave lino 22 years ago. In this wonderful ship, which now towers some 70 foot above the lovel ofthe Isle of Dogs, dwarfiug every pass ing vessel by her enormous proportions, we have only an extension of the lines upon which Mr. Rnsscll built the little Wave, of 7 1-2 tons. This may relieve those who regard tho " big ship” as too much of a novelty, anil still leaves sufficient food for wonder in the knowledge that she is about the eight of a mile in length, and more than twice the length of the Great Britain, which a dozen years ago, was the larg est iron ship then built or thought of. But her rcadth is much less, in proportion to her length, than that of the vessel just named, (being ?- feet “ over all ”) a point of ditference which affords the best ground for the anticipations entertained of the speed with which she will cross the Atlantic. Granting, then, that the mammoth ship is merely an extended copy of all other iron steamers built on tho ware liuc principle, let us see what arc the " ouo or two exceptions!” so modestly alluded to by Mr. Russell, last week, before the British Association at Duhliii. The most promiuent, in reality, though a feat ure which escapes unprofessional visitors, is the cellular construction of the upper deck, tuld the lower part of the hull, up to the water link, or about thirty feet from her bottom which is ns fiat as the floor of a room. This system, while it gives greater buoynnee to the hull, in creases her strength enormously, and thus cu- nblcshcrto resist almost any outward pressure. Two walls of iron, abput till feet high, divide her longitudinally into three parts, the inner containing the boilers, the engine rooms, anil the saloons, rising one above the other, and the lateral divisions the coal linkers, and, above them, the side eabius and berths. Tito saloons are sixty feet in length, the principal oue. nearly half the width of the vessel, and lighted by skylights from the upper deck. On either side are the cabins and berths, those of first- class being commodious rooms, large enough to contain every requirement of the most fastid ious o? landsmen. The thickness of the lower deck will prevent any sound from the engiqe rooms reaching the passengers, anti tho vibra tion frem being at all felt by them. Each side of the engine-rooms is a tunnel through which the 3tcam and water pipes will be carried, and also, rails for economising labor in conveyance of coal. The berths of the crew are forward, below the forecastle, which it is intended to appropriate to the officers, whose apartments are at present only marked by a few uprights, running ten or twelve feet above tho main deck. Below the berths of the seamen are two enorm ous cavities, for cargo, of which 5,000 tons can be carried, besides coals enough for the voy age to Australia, making about as many toils more. The weight of this huge ship being 12,01)0 tons and coal and cargo about 18,000 tons more, tho motive power to propel her twenty miles per hour must he proportionate, if a visitor walks aft, and looks down a deep chase near the stern, he. will perceive an enormous metal shaft, KM) feet iu length and weighing GO tons; this extends from tlic engine room nearest the stern, to the extremity of the ship, and is destined to move the screw, the four fans of which are of proportionate weight and di mensious. If, next, he walks forward, aud looks over the side, he wiil see a paddle wheel con siderably larger than the circle at Astjoy’s ; and when he learns that this wheel and its fel low will be driven by four eugiucs,' bavin, nominal power of 1,000 horses, and the screw, by a nomine! power of 1,(500. horses, he will have no difficulty in conceiving a voyage to America in seven and to Australia in thirty days. The screws engines designed and man ufactured by Messrs James Watt Co., are far tho largest ever constructed, and when inakiug 50 revolutions per minute, will exert an effective force of not less than 8,000 horses. It is difficult to realize tho work which this gi gantic force would perform if applied to the ordinary operations of cofmncrce; it would raise 1B2.000 gallons of water to the top of the Monument in one minute, or drive the machinery of forty of tho largest cotton-mills in Manchester, giving employment to from 30 to 40,000 operatives. There arc four cylin ders, each about 25 tous, aud 84 inches iu di ameter. The crank-shaft, to which the con necting rods arc applied, weigh about 30 tons The boilers are six m number, having sevonty- two furnaces, and an absorbent heating-sufaee, nearly equal, in extent, to an acre of ground. The total weight exceeds 1,200 tous, yet so contrived that they can be set in motion or stopped by a single hand. Sails will not be much needed, for in career ing over the Atlantic at twenty miles per hour, with a moderate wind, they would rathor im pede than aid; but iu the event of a strong wiud arising, going twenty-five miles per hour in the course of the vessel, sails may be used with advantage, and the “Great Eastern’ provided, accordingly, with seven masts, two square-rigged, the others carry fore anil aft sails only. The larger masts will he iron tubes, the smaller of wood. The funnels, of which there will be five, afternating with the. masts, arc constructed with double castings, aud tho space between the outer and inner cast ings will be filled with water, which will an swer the double purpose of preventing the radiation of heat to the decks, and economis ing coal by causing the water to enter tlic boil er iu a warm state. Her rigging will proba bly cause more disturbance of ideas to nauti cal observers, for besides the usual number of niiists, she will want two most striking features of all other vessels, namely, bow-sprit and figure-head. Another peculiarity is the ab sence of a poop. The Captain’s apartment is placed amidships, immediately below tho bridge whence tho electric telegraph will flash the commander’s orders to tho engineer below, helmsman at the wheel, tind look-out man at the bows. In iron vessels great precaution be ing necessary to prevent the compass from be ing influenced by the mass of metal in such attractive proximity, various experiments have been made with the view of discovering the best mode of overcoming this- It was origi nally intended to locate the compass upon a stage forty feet high, but this plan has been abandoned, and a standard compass will be af fixed to tho mizen mast,' at an elevation be yond the magnetic iuflucncc of the ship. Wlmtovcr misgiving may be felt as to tlic length and the weight she will carry amidships will be set at rest before sho touches the water by tho mode of launching—au operation as great a novelty as tho ship herself. The plan hitherto has been to build the vessel oh au in clined plane, and at right angles with the wa ter : but iu the case of the Great Eastern this was impossible, on the account of her great length, to say nothiug of the expense of build- a vessel of her enormous dimensions in a posi tion that would elevate her forecastle nearly a hundred feet above tho ground. Those con siderations led Mr. Bruuci to determine upon launching her sideways, with which view site has been built parallel to the river. In con structing the foundation of the floor on which she stands, provision has been made at two points, to insure sufficient strength to bear thp whole weight when completed. On these two points she will rest wheu ready, aud thus her strength will be tested in tho severest, and therefore, most satisfactory tnauucr. j Two cradles will be introduced at these points, and sho will then bo moved by two hydraulic en gines. Timber ways are laid down to low water mark, with an incliuc of one foot iti twelve, and iron rails of peculiar construction tiro laid on these transversely. A tell-taie will indicate tho ratoat which-the two endsari descending, and any difference that may oc cur will be immediately rectified by strong cheek tackle, ft is calculated that she will ad vance twelve feet per minute, at which speed her submersion will bo effected.
