At the same time Shah Shnja was replaced on the throne of Cabul. These events happened in 1839 and 1840. Fortius interference in the affairs of Affghan istau, the British had no excuse whatever. It is true that the Persians were at war with Herat, aud the British feared, if Herat fell, that the Persians, instigated by Kussia, would as sail British India next. It is true also that Dost Mohammed was believed to favor the Persians' designs on Herat. But that Dost Mohammed was, at this juncture, bo.tiic to the British, has never been proved. Dearly, how ever, did the British pay for their interference. In November, 1841, an insurrection broke out at Cabul against the British. Iu the tumult Sir Alexander Barnes, and several other dis tinguished officers, lost their lives. This par tial risiug wa3 followed by an insurrection over the whole kingdom. The British, for tbe first time in India, since Lord Clive began to lay the foundations of their power, quailed before the storm. Sir William McNaghten, the Brit ish euvoy at Cabul, agreed with Akber Khan, the favorite son of Dost Mohammed, to evacu ate', tlte country, Akbtr stipulating to escort the British army to the frcnt.ers, aud Sir Wil liam pledging that Shah Shuja should abdicate, iu order to make room for Dost Mohammed's return. At a second meeting between Sir Wil liam and Akber, a dissension arising, probably provoked on purpose by the latter, Sir William was shot dead by the Affghan -chief. ' Akber, however, agreed subsequently to tarry out the terms of the treaty. :, Now began a retreat the horrors of which only that of Moscow has equalled in i modern times. Akber protessed to escort ; tne liritisti army, but secretly; instigateaf it is euevcu, me mountain tribes to assail tliem; aud consequent- iy tbe march -jwiw'nstitt..atf' 'jdJkiiT.a Bceno were blocked up witn snow ; . tne troops ; were encumbered with a large number of women and children, besides a: vast body of camp followers. Some died from exposure, and. some were left to perish from Eickuess ou the way side; but the greater quantity fell by the sword of tho merciless mountaineers. ' Never but ouce in modern times has a more tigual vengeance been visited on invaders. The passes were filled along the whole line of retreat, with corpses,' that c ten were pi led in heaps. Almost the only per sons who escaped were some ofliccrs and their wives, who had placed themselves under Akber's personal care, a few marches from Cabul, and who, after mouths of captivity, after terrible privations and after long weeks of suspense, more agonizing than the worst privations, suc ceeded, by bribes, iu making, their escape and reaching the nearest British fort, having ridden several days in hourly peril of their lives. The British, meautime, had advanced in force from their own side of the Indus, aud had even penetrated to Cabul;. but the prisoners having been thus recovt rod, and Shah Shnja liaving been assassinate-!, it was resolved to leave the Aff ghans to themselves. Accordingly Dost Mo hammed, who had been retained iu captivity all this time, and whose participation in the late eventi, though suspected, cuold not be proved, was set at liberty. He took possession at once of the throne oi Cabul, The British simultane ously abandoned that capital, but not until they had destroyed its famous bazar. It was in November, 1842, that the last division re-crossed the Indus, and the Affghan pr'inte was re stored to freedom and escorted t the frontiers of his kingdom. Just twelve months had elaps ed siuce the insurrection in Cabul. But in that single year a more fatal blow had, been struck it tic British power, by destroying the idea of British invincibility, than the whole ninety pre ceding years had witnessed, since the British arms lirst began to make headway in the Easl, Dost Mohammed has no love for the Knglisl . Th-re.is little. doubt that he secretly canetd the massacre at Cabul, and that he will, at the first chance, siek still further vengeance.
