§ MR. O'DONNELLasked the Under Secretary of State for India, Whether he is aware that, as stated in the "Calcutta Englishman" of the 25th ult., a body 745 of soldiers of the 31st Native Infantry, stationed at Cawnpore, under orders for Malta, flung aside their accoutrements in the presence of their Commanding Officer, and demanded to be allowed to share the imprisonment of some of their comrades already under arrest; whether the mutineers insisted upon the recall of a Native Subahdar, who had been removed from their command; and, whether it is true that the Native officer in question was immediately restored to the command demanded for him by the insubordinate soldiers, and that the arrested mutineers were released without delay?
§ MR. E. STANHOPESir, we have received no official information on the subject. There appears to be no reason for attaching any importance whatever to those proceedings.
