The Helief off J_uc_inow.
We take the following (rom the Alia California ;—
The story of the relief of Lucknow, by Sir
Henry Havelock, some mouths ago, is familiar to
all our readers. The gallant exploit will be recorded upon the brightest pa.e of English his
tory, and tbe name of Havelock will go down to
a grateful posterity, as the hero of the age. No
words of ours can add to hia greatness ; yet it i-
dne to him, from a people that have sprung from
the same stock and speaking the same language,
to pay the humble tribute of ackuowledgmeut of
his heroism and his great deeds.
The history of this mutiny will, -when written,
outshine the most thrilling romance. And even
at th ia day, the letters written from India and the
official reports, are, in themselves, little less than
the most enticing romance. As an instance of
this, we give a letter written by a correspondent
of ia Pays, of Paris, containing a description, by
a lndy, of the first relief of Luckuow by Sir H.nry
Havelock,
The Euglirh language contains few more thrilling stories than this, nor none that wilt convey a
more vivid impression of the horrors of the India
war.
On every side death stared us in the face ; no
human skill could avert it any longer. We Haw
the moment approach when we must bid farewell
to earth, yet without feeling that unutterable horror which must have been experienced by tlie unhappy victims at Cawnpore. We resolved to die
rather than yield, and were fully persuaded that
in twenty-fours all would be over. The engineers
had said so, and all knew the worst. We women
strove to encourage each other, and to perform
fhe light duties which had been assigned to us.
such as conveying orders to the batteries and supplying the men with provisions," especially cnpy
of coffee, which we prepared day and night. I
had gone out to try and make myself useful, in
company with Jessie Brown, the wife o! a corporal in my husband-'s regiment. Poor Jessie had
been in a state of restiess excitement all through
the siege, and had fallen away visibly within the
last few days. A constant fev»r con.umed her,
and her mind wandered ocsasioually, especially
that day. when the recollection of home seemed
powerfully present to her.
At last, overcome with fatigue, she lay down
on the ground, wrapped up iu her plaid, I pat
beside her. prouming to awaken her wh. n, as she
said, "her father should return from the plow-
She fell at le.ngtii into a pre found sleep,
raoUortlese, and apparently breathless, her head
re-ting iu my lap. I myselfcould no longer re-
tinual roar ot tne cannon, suaaeniyiwa.ar_ii-.u-
by a wild, unearthly scream, close to my ear ; my
companion stood upright before me, her arms
raised, and her head bent forward in the attitude
of listening. A look of intense delight broke
over her countenance; she grasped my hand,
drew me tow»rds her, and exclaimed, " Dirina ye
hear it? dmna ye hear it? Ay, I'm no dreamin',
it's the slogan o' the Highlanders! We're saved,
we're saved !" Then, flinging herself upou her
kuees, she thanked God with passionate feivor.
I felt utterly bewildered.; my English ears heard
only the roar of artillery, and I thought my poor
Jessie was still raving, but she darted to the bat-
teries, and I heard her cry incessantly to the men-
•■Courage, courage, hark to the slogan—to the
Macg'regor, the grandest of them a'. Here's help
at last!" To describ ■ the effect of these words on
the soldi.rs would be impossible. For a moment
they ceased firing, and every soul listened in intense anxiety. Gradually, however, there arose a
murmur of bitter disappointment, and Ihe wailing
of the women who had flocked to the spot burst
out anew as the Colonel shook his head. Our
dull lowland ears heard nothing but the rattie of
musketry. A few moments more of this deathlike suspense, of this agonizing hope, and Jessie,
who had sank on the ground, sprung to her feet,
and cried, in a voice so loud and pierceing (hut it
was distinctly heard along the whole line: " Will
ye no believe it nco! The slogan has ceased, in"
deed, but the Cft'npbelis are comin'! D'ye hear,
d'ye hear?" At that moment we seemed to hear
indeed the voice of God in the distance, when the
pibroch of the Highlanders brought us tidings of
deliverance. That shrill, penetrating, ceaseless
sound, which rose above all other sounds, could
come neither from the advance of the enemy, nor
from the work of the sappers. No, it was indeed
the blast of the Scottish bagpipes—dow shrill and
harsh, as threatening vengeance on the foe—then
in softer tones, seemini: to promise i-uccor to their
1 friends in need. Nev_r surely was there bucu a
I Bcone as that wl ich followed. Not a heart in the
Lucknow but buried itself before God.
All, by one simultaneous impulse, fell upon their
knees, and nothing was heard but bursting sobs
and the murmured voice of prayer. Then all
arose, and there rang from a thousand lips a great
shout of joy, which resounded far and wide, and
lent new vigor to that blessed pibroch. To our
cheer of •' God save the Queen 1" they replied by
the well known strain that moves every Scot to
tears: " Should auld a. quaintance be forgot."
After that nothing else made any impression on
me • I scarcely icmember what -followed. Jessie
was presented to the General on his euliauce into
the fort and at the officers' banquet her health
was drunk by all present, while ttie pipers marched
around the table, playing once more the familial
',ir ol "Auld Lung Syne."
After reading thi-, it is no difficult matter to
imagine the enthm-iasm and joy with
OelWi Campbell's force, were greeted, at Lne last
reliel of Lucknow. an account of which readied

More   than  60.000  sepoys  surrounded   the be-
!..,,'_.u-r-d city  thirsting for anrth-rh.
Sir Henry HavclocU.
[From the Alta California.]
It is something more than admiration for the
soldier-like achievements which Sir Henry Havelock accomplished during  the brief period  that
has transpired since the rising of the sepoy, in
lud.:a, that has stirred the hearts of the American
people so deeply at the news that he is no more.
The splendor aud brilliance of the great deeds of
Wellington and Nelson though they gained the
admiration of our people, and a universal acknowledgment of their great glory,stirred not the deep
fountains of sympathetic grief when  the news of
their death was received ; but whlCb  the news of
the death of General Havelock lias so profoundly
agitnted as to cause tears ot grief to overflow from
a nation of American hearts, to which the name
of Havelock had become so justly dear.
For forty years Havelock had served his country  faithfully and   welt, upcu  the  tented field.
Sprung from the middle class of society, he hiid
no relationship with nobility toassibthim on the
road to swift promotion ; yet, as ihe majestic sun
lifts its pale disc  above the eastern horizou at
morn, and grows more brilliant and more m. jestic
until he attains the zenith of  his  noonday  glory,
so rose the name ol Havelock, until  having fearfully avenged the massacre at Cawnpore, he'attained the zenith of his great giory, when the pibroch of the Macgreggor Btart ed the wandering
intellect of poor Jessie Brown, as he marched gallantly into the beleagured city  of Lu.know, and
bestowed a soldier's blessing upon the poor Scottish girl, that had been first to catch the sound ol
the "Campbell's are Coming." while the pipers
eatherul round, played his grand welcome to the
tune of Auld Lang Syne.   This was the zenith o1
hid glory; this it was   that endeared  him to  tho
hearts ofall Christian nations alike,
It was this obedience to the impulses of a generous and brave heart that made him, in the bands
of God, a mighty instrument iu the  cause ot humanity ; that made him. too, the avenger  of the
brutal massacre of helpless women aud children at,
Cawnpore, and the succoring genius of the helpless hand hemmed in at Lucknow ; and so on,
through the train of great deeds which he accomplished amid the jungles of India, that won for
him the earliest regard of the American people,
and which causes their hearts to throb in one simultaneous pulsation of mourning, when the sad
news is borne across tbe wide Atlantic that he is
uo more.
But as it has pleased Almighly God to call him
home in the full splendor  of his  glory, we have
tie tight  left  but  to  acquiesce iu the inexorable
mandate of Divinity, and pay the humble tribute

5lh of April, 17.5. He died on the 25t6 day of
November, 1857, not having attained his ^ix-y-
tliiid year. He was educated at the Charter
House, and numbered among his cotemporaries
Lord Panmure, and other distinguished men, the
former of whom, to his eternal infamy be it spoken,
in his capacity of War Minister, conferred upon
him ihe niggardly sum of £100 per annum, for
his nine magnificent vio'orics in India.
He entered the Middle Temple as a student, in
1813, as a pupil of Chilly, and the friend of the
late Judge Talfourd. With tastes strongly inclined tor military life, it is no matter of surprise
that the irksome study of the law was soon given
up for a Second Lieutenancy in the Riflt; Brigade,
procured for him by his elder brother, Colonel
William Hav.lock, wbo had won honors in the
Peninsula, and at Waterloo.
After eight years' service in Englnnd, Scotland
and Ireland, he emburked for India in 1823. He
was engaged in the first Buim.se war,subsequently to which he was despatched on a mission to the
Court of Ava. After some years' service in India,
he was promoted to a company in 18*8, "and
served on the staff of Sir Willoughby Cotton, in
tlie invasion of Affghanistan, and whs present at
the capture of Gimznee, in 1830" "He was
shortly afterwards sent to the Punjaub in charge
of a detachment, and was placed on the staff ol
Gen. Elphinston, as interpreter." From a London paper we gather also the following brief notice of his subsequent career:
Ho served in Cabui, under the late Sir Robert
Sale, and commanded a column in the final sue
cessful attack on Mahomed Akbar, in April, 18-12.
