Was there a Maha Kumbh Mela in Allahabad (Prayag) in 1857? If the big mela was in 2001 and they happen every 144 years, this would seem to have been the case. Did it have any conection to the Mutiny that began soon after?

I'm also interested in the Allahabad mela that took place in 1870. Was it a Magh Mela?

Here's a short history of Khumbamela: http://khumbamela.com/khumbamela/index.php/history. The big melas happen much more frequently than 144 years!
