Dispatches have been received at the India House, addtessed to the Secret Committee by the Governor in Council of Bombay, of which Dispatches and of their Inclosures the following are copies and extracts: Extract from a Report from Lieutenant-General Sir THOMAS Hump, Bart. to the Governor-General, dated Camp at Char wah, 26th November, 1817 ; inclosed in a Dispatch from the Governor in Council of Bombay, dated lit January, 1818. My late dispatches will have informed your Lord ship, that Lieutenant-Colonel Adams's division com menced crossing the Nerbudda on the 14th, and Bri gadier-General Malcolm's on the 16th instant. The first was on the 21st instant, near Rasseen, the latter on the 23d, at Ashta ; and on the 24th and 25th (as contemplated in my dispatch of the 31st ultimo), the movement of these columns, and of that of Major- General Marshall, which was at Saugur, on the 21st, would expel the Pindary Durrahs from their late po sitions, and the country they usually occupy ; but , every account states that they were prepared to Ay, and would allow to our troops but little chance of coming up with them.—The 25th instant was inten- ' ded to be named by me as the date on which the po sitions of the Pindarries, all above eighty miles in advance of the Nerbudda, would be reached by our divisions, and the event has verified the calculation, although the troops were directed to advance with every expedition which the difficulties of the country to be traversed permitted. &tract from a Dispatch from the Governor in Council at Sout hey, to the Secret Committee, dated January 1, 1818. By the accompanying copy of a communication received from Brigadier General Sir John Malcolm, detect the 26th November, your Honourable Com mittee will be informed, that a party of Mysore horse, under the command of Captain Grant, belonging to Sir John's division, had surprised Talym, a post of the Pindarries, in which Walub Khan, the adopted son of one of the principal chiefs, was taken prisoner. (INCLOSED IN THE PRECEDING.) _You will be glad to hear I have completely suc ceeded in my tittle enterprize against this place.— Captain Grant, with twelve hundred Mysore horse, after a march of thirty-four miles, surprised it yes terday a little after day-break. On my arrival at Shujahalpore, I sent a reinforcement to prevent the escape of any of the garrison, and particularly of Walub Khan, one of Setoo's favourites and adopted son. On my coming here this morning I found the party, which, including the Kohur, were ten or twelve horsemen, and between fifty and sixty infantry, had opened the gates of the Gurry, and surrendered at discretion. I have, after disarming them, released them all except the Kohur and two Jemmadars.— Cheefoo is now beyond Najghur, but I have a report that he has left his families in the vicinity of that place ; if this is confirmed, I shall move in that direction. Extract from a Dispatch from the Governor in Council at Bom bay, to the Secret Committee, dated January 2, 1818. We have great satisfaction in transmitting to your Honourable Committee, inclosing a transcript of a dispatch from his Excellency Lieutenant-General Sir Thomas llislop, to the Most Noble the Governor- General, containing information of a signal victory obtained over the army of Nlulhar Row Holkar, on the 21st of December, by the first and third divisions of the army of the Deccan, under the personal com mand of the Lieutenant-General. This intelligence was communicated by Major Agnew to Major-Ge neral Sir William G. Keir, and by him transmitted to the Resident at Baroda. On this important event we take the liberty of offering to your Honourable Committee our most sincere congratulations. -Camp, on the Sipoora, opposite Maheidpoor•, Dec. 21, 1817, Five P. M. MY LORD-4 write this from the field of battle, on which I have the satisfaction to report, for your Lordship's information, that the army of Mulhar Row Holkar has this day been completely defeated and dispersed, by the first and third divisions of the army I- have the honour to command. This result has grown out of the failure of our ne gociations with the Government of Holkar, and of the repeated acts of aggression and insult which we have experienced since our advance from Ongein on 'the 11th inst. Under these circumstances, I felt im-' palled by every sense of duty to my country and to your Lordship, to vindicate without further loss of time the honour of the British name. Brigadier-General Sir John Malcolm is now in full pursuit of the fugitives, with the greater part of the cavalry. The camp of Holkar, and a number of his guns, remain in our possession. Our loss, I fear, has been considerable; though, I • lifabeiersor is shaved on the River Siffh, or Sipoort, and is aboat twenty-Bve milts notch of Ougt.in, Sindia's capital. 'trust, not greater than might lave been expected such an occasion. No Of of rank has been I shall to-morrow have the honour of transmitting to your Lordship the details of the action, turns of killed and wounded, so far as it may ticable to collect them. In congratulating your Lordship on the important !hue of this day, I can only add at this moment, t the conduct of the gallant troops who have b victory has been such as to realize my most ne expectations.--I have the honour cc be, & (Signed) T.
