That town is seated on the SaAle, about sixty miles west of Dresden, aa.l is thought to be more conveniendy situated foe fairs than even Leipsic. • The displeasure which the KiNG of Pays** haw been pleased to express at the remonstraace of the people of Coblents, l~as not, we are happy to observe, drerrod the Citizens of other places from following t he:: -I,:iiteti example.

He made little or no rotistance bo: yosd what was stated in the former accounts, and authentic advices had reachild Bombay of n treaty of peace, oo terms highly sadsfactory, having been condeded with that Chief...43=e few refractory Imps of aotecoaory Arabs, however, regardless of this sokma treaty, had of their own accord had the' temerity to nacre hostilities. They made a desperate attack open oor troops, but were so efectually re pulsed that they fled with the utmost precipitation. The Rajah, as a pledge of his fidelity, had repaired to the British Camp, from whence, in conjunction with the British Resident, Mr. JENLINSOK, he issued a Proclamation to the refractory corps, and in a few days all was expected to be perfect tranquillity in that quarter. With respect to the Plumate, the only intelligence we have to state is, that his defeated troops continneil their Bight, closely pursued, with every prospect of their complete sabjugation being speedily eflhcoed. The Pindaries, from the extreme swiftness of their movements, had hitherto eluded the most vigilant activity of our troops, but measures had been taken. to cut off their further retreat, and it was not &milt ed that in a very short time they would be loniught to oomplete subjection, and the general peace of I Ind* be happily an& permanently restored.
