British Headquarters, Kandy, March 5. . This day a solemn conference was held in the Au di:nce•hall of the Palace of Kandy, between his Ex cellency dui Governor and Commander of the Forces , on behalf of his Majesty sad of his Royal High ness the Prince Regent, on the one part, and the AJikars, Dessaves, and other principal Chiefs of the Kandian Provinces on the other part, on behalf of the People, and in presence of the Mohnttales, Coraals, Vidaans,. and other subordinate Headmen, from the diffetent Provinces, and a great concourse of inhabi tants. A public instrument of treaty, prepared in conforaky to, conditions previously agreed on, for establishing his Majesty's Government in the Kan dian Provinces, was produced, and publicly real, in English and Cingalese, and unanimously assented to. The British ft.,g was then, for the first time, F. istcd, and the establishment of the British dominion in the interior was announced. by a royal salute from the cannon of the i ity. All :the troops present in .the garriion were under arms-on the occasion of this ins , portant event.;—By his Excellency's comnfand, (Signed)• JAMES SUTHIIIILAND, Dep. S..c. • OFFICIAL DECLARATION OFTHE SET CLEMENT oft TkiE . Ii,ANDIAN - .PILOVINCES. " Led by the invitation of .the. Chiefs, and .wel comed by the acclamations of the people, the forces of his Britannic Majesty have en t ered the Kandian territory, and penetrated to the capital. lirmit Pito. vincNot has blessed their efforts. with uniiorm and complete succeu. The Ittilet of the • interior. pro vinces has fallen into their hands, and the Govern ment remains at the disposal' of his Majesty's &pre-- sentative. ' -- 1 " In this sacred charge, it is his earnest prayer, that the Power which has vouchsafed.thns far to fa vour the undertaking, may guide his counsels to a happy issue, in the welfare and prosperity of the' peoptc. and the honour of the British empire. " Under circumstances far different from any which exist in the present case, it would be a duty, and a pleasing one, to favour there-establishment of:, a fallen Prince, if his dominion could be fixed on any principles of external relation compatible with the rights of the neighbouring Government, or his inter nal. rule in any reasonable degree reconciled to the safety of his subjects. " But the horrible transactions of the fatal year ISCS, forced upon the recollection by many local circumstances, and by details unknown before—the massacre of 150 sick soldiers lying helpless in the hos pital of Kandy, left under the pledge of public faith; and the no less treacherrus murder of the win k Brit sh garrison commanded by Major Davie, which had surrend,red on a promise of safety, im press upon the Governor's mind an act of perfidy unparalleled in civilized warfare, and an awful lesson recorded in tharacters of blood, against the momen tary admission of future confidence—while the obsti nate rejecticn of all friendly overtures, repeatedly mace during the intermission of bostilitieti, has served to evince an implacable animosity destructive of the hope of a sincere reconciliation. . " Of this animosity a daring instance was exhibited in the unprovoked and barbarous mutilation of ten innocent subjects of the British Government, by which seven of the number loscilieir lives--a measure of defiance calculated, and apparently intended, to pot a final negative to every proloability of friendly inter course. If, therefore, in the present reverse of his fortunes and condition, it may be presumed the King would be found more accessible to negotiation than in form .r times, what value could be set on a con.. sent at variance with, the known principles of hi.' resign ? or what dependence placed on his observance of conctilion. which he 113 s Ilithertil so perseveringly repelled ? Still less could the hope for a moment be enteriained,that any conditiOns of safety were capable of being established on helialf.of the inhabitants, who had appealed 'to his Majesty's Government for pro tection; and "'et more hopeless the attempt to Obtain pardon or safeguard for the Chiefs, who had deemed it a duty paramount to every other obligation, to become the Intalitim of that appeal. " How far their complaints have been groundless, and 'heir opptAitinn lisentioui, or on the contrary their griuvancestittetly and intolerably real, may now be juuged by facts of unquestionable antlie:,ticity. " Toe wanton destruction 'of human life comprises or implies the exi.aence of general oppression, In conjunction with that, sin other proofs of tbe exercise nf tyranny req. ire t,• be specitiedand one single in stance, of no distant date, will he ackqpwkdged to include every Oin ic wilier } il l barbarog am iinorinci. tub. asi torotrtoty the lett pablit . stir individual depravity and r►ickdnesi, the obliteration of Every trace ofeonscienei, and daecomplete extiac• don of human feeling.. In the deplorable fate of the wife an children of Eheyl4pola Adarar, these assertions are fully sub. mandated—in whisk was exhibited the savage sone of four infant children, the ybangesatorn Irmo the' mother's breast, cruelly butchered, and their bush' bruised in a mortar by the hands of.tbeir parent!. succeeded by the execution of the woman herself, and three trunks more—whose limbs . being bound, and a heavy stone tied round the neck of each, they were thrown into a lake and drowned. " It is not, however, that ander an absolute Go vernment unproved suspicion most usurp the place of fair trial, and the fiat of the Ruler stand instead of the decision of Justice; it is not that a rash, vie kat, or unjust decree, or a revolting mode of execu tion, is here brought to view, not the innocent suffer ing under the groundless imputation of guilt ; but a bold contempt of every principle of justice, setting at nought all known grounds of punishment, dispensing with the necessity of accusation, and choosing for its victims helpless females uncharged with any offence, and intents incapable of a crime. ' " Cnntemplating these atrocities, the impossibility of estatAsking with such a man any civilesed rela tions either cit peace or war, ceases to be a subject of regret; since his Majesty'earms, hitherto employed in the generous purpose of relieving the .oppressed, would be tarnished and disgraced by being instru. mental to the restoration of a dominion, exercised in l a perpetual outrage to every thing which is sacred in the cmstitutiooor functions of a legitimate Govern ment. 44 On these grounds his Execllene! the Governor has acceded to the wishes of the Chiefs and people of the &Indian provinci s, and a- convention has in con sequence been held, the result of which the following public Act is destined to record and proclaitb.
