There has been no fighting since the 4th, and my news-writers from the city speak of much disheartenment, and symptoms of a break-up ; but I doubt this latter being more than a report, while the enemy are so well provided both with " materiel " and " personnel." ^ I have just returned from a long chase after a party of the enemy's horse, safe and unhurt, but drenched to the skin by a cataract of rain. There has been some hard fighting to-day. The 8th Irregulars from Bareilly came into our camp,... thanks to the defection of a party of the 9th Irregular Cavalry, who were on picket duty. The rascals consequently were enabled to get into our very lines, and cut down one ofiicer at his guns. There was a tremendous row and confusion for a short time, but we soon put it to rights. I had warned the authorities repeatedly, that the Irregulars were not to be trusted, but they were too fainthearted or " merciful " (Heaven for- give me for using such a word about such villains) to dis- arm them, and both the regiments, about which I reported, have since gone wrong.
