My Loan—l have the horour to inform your Lordthip, that I yetterday morning detached the alt Regiment of Native Cavalry, and the ill battalion tsth Regimegt, under the command of Captain Wellh, of the former corps, to meet a convoy of pro anions on its way from Murata to my camp. The detachment having yellerday evening joined the con• voy, tatted for the night about fix cots from my camp, and moved again at an early hour this morn ing. The detachment wasrattacked on its march by a very confiderable body of infantry with guns, and ' the whole of the united force of cavalry belonging to Holkar, Ameer Khan, and Bappoojee Seindialr, about four cols from my camp, which obliged them to occupy a village, for the parpofe of colleting the convoy, and prefer ving it from the numerous cavalry of the enemy. immediately on hearing the firing, I ordered Lieutenant-Colonel Need, with his Majelty's 27th Light Dragoons. and the zd Regiment of Na tive Cavalry, to proceed to the relief of the party, ttvhiltt I followed with the main body of the cavalry of the army. I have the pleafure to in oral your Lord - chip, that the detachment under CaptainWelffi made a moll gallant defence, and immediately on the ap proach of Lieutenant-Colonel Need, they moved out of the village, charged, and totally routed the enemy to whom they were oppofed. Great numbers of the enemy were killed ; and nearly forty Rands of co lours, and all the artillery they had in the field, con fining of four guns, with their tumbrils, fell into our hands. This body of infantry was commanded by Ameer Khan, who, according to the information I have received from frame of his fervants who were made prifoners, was fo clufcly prefred, that to prevent hind - elf from being known, he 'tripped himfeif of his clothes and arms, and is uppofed to have efcaped in that fituatian—fome accounts render it probable that he has fallen, but on this fubjeet I have no certain information. Ameer Khan's palanquin, with a corn :• pkte fuit of armour, laid to be his, has beet brought into camp, as has alio Bappoojee Scindiah's palan t quill. Too much praife cannot be bellowed on the 'troops engaged, for their good conduel and a•ltivity lon this (Keenan, and I feel infinitely indebted to Captain Wellh, who commanded the efcoit, for the gallantry with which he refilled the repeated attacks I of a numerous enemy. Lientenant-Colonel Need is likewife entitled to my hel thanks, for the aelivity and spirit with which he charged and completed the route of the enemy, whole lots has been very great. ! I feel it particularly incumbent on me to mention the let vice rendered by Major Salkeld, the Deputy Qnar ter-Moller General, whin C.Mied my orders to Lieu tenant-Colonel Need, and proceeded to point out the road to that officer ; his let vices on this, as on every octillion, have been instil conflricueus for zeal and gallantry. I want words to exprefs to your Lord chip how infinitely I feel indebted to this meritorious Officer for the affiltance he has rendered me in every instance where I have had an opportunity of availing myfelf of his fervices. I am happy to add, that our lots on this occafion has not been confiderable.— Lieutenant Gordon, of the t cth Native Infantry, and Cornet Erfkine, of the ill Native Cavalry, have been wounded, but I hope not dangetonfly. The num ber of privates wounded does not exceed twenty, and I believe only two men have been killed. I have the honour to be, my Lord, • Your Lordlhip's molt faithful humble fervant, (Signed) G.

The reports in his camp Hate his intention to be, to era's the Ganges at a ford not very far didant from Kafgonj; other re ports make out that he is going in a more northerly direCtion ; indeed one Horkaru reports, that he law Meer Khan's camp this day at Loni, one and a half • crofs beyond Jowahir, on the Allyghur road, and Rix cofs from this. Some Hurkarus lay again, that he is going to Cawnpore. In whatever direCtion he goes, General Smith will not be long after him. No account had been received in Meer Khan% camp of our approach.

The General left his camp flandino, and direCted Colonel Gr ocher, with a detachment of infantry, and a party of Skinner's hotfe, to bring up our baggage, &c. Meer Khan did not choofe to await our arrival. He could• not have had intelli gence of our approach; but he did not, I luppofe. like to troll hinifelf fo near us, after thelefron which Holkar received. He marched from this at 3A. M. My Hurkarus accompanied him, and quitted him about ten o'clock A. M. at a place about twelve colit from this, and about fix in a welierly direaion from Anopfheer. About one hundred and fifty of: Nezur Alees's matchlock men and I:eons were cut up to•day, by our irregular horfe. General Smith has ordered Colonel Burn to defend the fords in the Ganges, in the upper part of the noels. It is pro.. bable that this order may reach COI. Burn in time. To Capt. J. Arniftrong.

From the rapid movements which the troops of the enemy, no. incumhered with baggage, are enabled to. make, the General r res not cape& to be able immediately to overtake them, and from the exceffive precautions which are laid to be conliantly taken by the enemy, the General does not cape& that he fhould fueceed in an attempt to furor ife (Item. It is, however, his intention to purfue the freebooter With the utmolt practicable expedition. Hitherto the country has Rule tattled little mifchief from his depredations ; for the clole purfuit to which he has been fubjed, and from the conflant alarm which prevailsin his army, he ha* had no opportunity of committkg ravages to any? great extent. The tlefencelef. villages which have been upon his route have been plundered, hut the pro. perty of the great majority of the inhabitants has' been preterite I in fmall torts, with which the country .abounds, and which he has never duct to attack.— With the exception of the rebels Nizur Ally and' Dhoohudialiban, Meor Khan het. found no adherents. He is repotted to leek every where for a ford, and to have attempted to croft at this place. is laid to-day to have proceeded to Pt,reefulghttr, to which place Llajor General Smith will dire& his. courfe tomorrow.
