A dispatch has been received at the East India- House, front the Governor in Council at Bombay, dated 19th May, 1818, enclosing a report fro' Bri sadier.General Thomas Munro to the Hon. Mount smolt Elphinstone, of which the following is * copy : Camp before Stolapom!, May 11. Heed-quarters, Field Division. TO THE HONOURABLE MOUNTETUART ZLNIMIRSTONg, COIdbIISSIONT.R. SIR—On the 9th instant I had the honour to re- port to you the arrival of the division ander my com mand before this place, and that Gunput Row Pannsee had returned hers from the south of thelleema river the day before, and was encamped under the guns , of the fort, in a strong position, with Bajee Row's guns and infantry. Yesterday morning, at day-break, I carried the outward pettah by escatad% and made a lodgment in the inner pettah (close Op to the frit), where the Arabs continued to defend the hojzsei on that side of the fort, assisted by the garrison, for a considerable time. It is now in our possession ram happy to in form you. Just as we got possession yesterdarof the outward pettah, Gunput Row led a considerable body of his infantry, with a few hundred 'kir*. round ,by the eastern side of the fort, and opened Eire 'gen, up. our reserve. Finding our battery did' tioenilence these guns, I ordered them to be charged, aid car ried three of them; the other two having-been un fortunately withdrawn just then under the fire of the fort. Gunput Row was wounded, ..and Victul Punt Tattiah killed, besides several others of less note, at - their guns and in their retreat. Having understood that the enemy were going off about four o'clock p. m. from their camp, I ordered out our small body of cavalry, under Brigadier-Ge neral Pritzler, to pursue them. Fortunately Dhooly Rhan came into camp just before from Tooljapoor with three hundred horse, after a long march, and joined in the piirsuit. I have great satisfaction in. acquainting you that , the Brigadier-General was fortunate enough to over take them about seven miles from camp, and he pursued them five miles to the banks of the Seena river, and only gave over as the night closed in, leaving between 700 and 800 killed and wounded on the field, and amongst the former, I believiy• Major de Pinto : his party, and the Arabs under biaub,l who did not part with their arms, suffered Most.— The enemy were about 5000 infantry, and 600 or 700 horse; the latter all escaped, having had so great an advantage, in starting ; those of the infantry who got off threw away their arms, io I hope I.may congratulate you upon the complete defeat and dis persion of Bajee Row's infantry ; and as his guns were taken into the fort. I expect we shall soon have the remainder of them also. The enemy lost all their baggage, camels, &co • .. Pur loss yesterday, I fear, has bees severe. As yet I have not received the return, of the killed and wounded. 1 shall do myself the honour to send yon a•detail., ed account to-morrow of the operations of yesterday. The'garrison now consists of only or 1006 in. fantry ; and our mortars are playing on the fort from the inner pettah since morning. I have the honour to be, &c. T. KUNRO. EY MAJOR-OZNERAL MANSUALI, COMMANDING.. Camp before 'harass,- March 6. Maior-General Marshall congratulates the army he has the luntoar to command, on the successful termination of its ser vice; against the fortress and town of Mamma; which event has led ao the surrender of Moorsawn andolerren other forts. To Major-Generals Donkin, Sir J. Hoesfwd.„ and BroWn, and Major Anburey, General Marshall feels extremely indebted for the judgment, zeal, promptitude, and energy, which they lova riably displayed in carrying into effect the operations devolving upon the several branches of the service to which they were at mated. The science and skill displayed by the engineer and ar tillery departments were eminently conspicuous; and the bom bardment and explosion of the enemy's principeitnaguine, Which without derogating from the merits of other% must be sabered to have given us almost immediate paneasion of the place, will long be regarded as the most memorable anon the brilliant events of the last fortnight, and as demonstrative d the extent and soundness of that judgment and penetration, which, in the avowed anticipation of these very consequences, enabled the aeriy, by the provision of adequate means, to canon them. The practice of the artillery has answered the expectations of that high authority, to which the Major-General has ventured to ▪ tie in the forgoing observations. Another motive for them is to bring forward and illustrate the fact more closely, that where the means are equal to the ectenoe and practical knowledge known to pervade every branch of the army, the results must invariably be rapid and successful, even against such strong and formidable forts as Hattrau ha, proved to be. The iufantry and cavalry on thin occasion had abundant opportunities of shelving their bravery, zeal, and de votion to the service. On one occasion, particularly, the Major- General was highly pleased with the alacrity end eagerness dis played by, the infantry, who were formed is. edemas ready to rum the works of the town, holding out 4111017 empeetedee of ciczesa from men who evinced web resoled= and desire of being led on. The duties of investing the fort letsirly devolved on the cavalry, and their vigilance and is the blockade entitle them to the a blibu stak r= donation. The loss sustained by the snooty is raglan tide's,- treat from the fort, reflects great credit en the Woo orresdrons of his majesty's oth Light Dragoons, the 7th Native Cavalry, sad part of the Ist Roisilla Cavalry, who entered, parented them. The Pionoer Corps has 'Leta another prose lathe many ah' ready oavecord of their coolness in the them Myles sheatheti sad of their extraordinary skill saddlery& is the labours whish brl sag to them is this particular species el warfare. Haviog thus noticed his high approval orthe mods of every branch of the Army, Megor-Getweal Mardisall desires that the several Officers employed en the General Staff of the Armtwill aocept his warmest thanks for the able men, in which their several duties were conducted. -- - The ilajor-General's Per's anal Staff, updating et Contain Janes, Aide-claCanip, Major iftrtwriOt, and lieutenant Sand, of the Quartermaster-Gene:ars Wprtm-mt. wills both volunteered their services on this occasion, and acted aa de-Camp, are entitled to his beet thanks for their ready wham* _on all occasions. The Commissariat Delo:twist, under Lieulenent•Colarel Stevenson and Captain Cunidiffe, answered the high expectations formed of it from past experience. Lieutenant Aplin's exertions as Acting Animist 42 1 a nor Master-General, marked the seal, intellipbui, and ability of this deserving and promising OS= •' Captain Water s, Provincial Assistant Adjutant-General, and Brigade-Major Neigh, had im portant and laborious details to conduct, which they performed to the entire satisfaction of the Major-General. • Sholapore, a town in the late Peishwah's dominions, near the western boundary of the Nisinzes t about 140 :ones mak-ease of Poona.

All this, it is said, will be put in force. from Ist October. Foreign wines will pay a duty of 60 per cent. on the invoice price. With the com mencement of the military year on the.] st November, all persons in the employ of the State, including the military, are to receive their Payment in Convention money ; and, on the other band, all allowance, of whatever description, will be withdrawn It is said, that the assize of meat and brad will shortly be fixed in Convention money, and thus more stability be introduced in the prices of the first necessaries di life, and consequently in many things that depend on them. To accomplish this, indeed, it is, neeeslxT that the coprse of exchange ould be regulate a more permanent footing than heretofore ; but oE this also we have a fair prospect, for we know posi tively that important and decisive'ordinances on this subject may be *gpected at the beginning of No . vember. CARLSRUHE, SF.PTEMBFJt 21 We live here as if in the midst of war. • All the absent military are brought with the greatest haste in waggons, and for the most part go to the frontiers of the Grand Duchy. What all this means we do not know, and it would be too precipitate to believe the reports that are in circulation. The order to call in the military came immediately from Griesbach. HEIDELBERG, SEPTEMBER 25. The Baden troops are assembled in great numbers here, and in the neighbourhood; they are quite ready for battle, though we do got know to what end, and against whom they are armed. Very strange reports, however, are in 'circulation, and if a certain case hap pens, important events may very probably take place in this neighbourhood. FROM THE UPPER RHINE, SEPTEMBER MI. All our regiments (Baden) have received orders to tie ready to march at the first notice. It is now affirmed that the Landwehr also is to be called toge cher, and that by the Ist October Baden will have 30,000 troops under arms. The immediate cause of this measure is not known. Reports ascribe it to tome movements which are said to have taken place among; the troops of Bavaria. It is asserted that a strong corps of Bavarians is assembling in the Province of Wurzburg, and that the Court of Baden has intelli gence which gives cause to apprehend that a military occupation of the Palatinate of the Rhine is intended., Strong garrisons will, therefore, be put in this Pro vinoe,•parucalarly in Manheim, Heidelberg. Latina. burg, &c. ; and large bodies of troo ps stationed on the frontiers, to hinder any occupation from taking place, till at least a complete and positive decision shall have been made by the Allied Powers. At Carlsruhe, more hopes than ever are enter tained that the Courts of St. Petersburgh and Berlin will interfere in favour of Baden. It is affirmed that France is inclined to favour the interest of Baden. England has no reason to make itself a party. If a supplementary indemnity for Bavaria could be ob tamed any where else, the affair would probably be soon settled ; but why should Baden furnish this indemnity ? It may be said with truth, that public opinion is decidedly in favour of Baden. The various writings which have appeared, some directly, some indirectly, at the instigation of the Baden Court, have much contributed to give thii favourable turn to the public opinion, to winch the Grand Duke appealed, in his letter to the King of Bavaria. BERLIN, Our silk manufacturers and silk dyers make great complaints of the new laws respecting the duties of, 'customs and consumption on foreign goods. But' where is the State that satisfies all classes of citizens? The French, say they, will now import in abur.dance as well silk goods as raw silk, because they have only two dollars duty per cent. to pay ott the frontiers.-:-. However, these trades are better og than the posir cotton-manufacturers, for the French do admit ,nor heavy silk goods into their country, while their light goods meet with an immense demand among. ds. But the English will continue to prohibit the inipni cation of foreign goods ; and if they should even pea nut it, it would still be a question, whether, consider. ing the cheapness of the English mamtfictured goods, sea a permission would be df any advantage ;trout cotton-manufacturers, and then the inevitable conse quence would be, that our rniumfacturerswould have to pay over and above the freight of their goods bat. PETERSBURG% SEPTEMBER It • - The new Loan has produced 90 millions of rubles. In order to complete the army and the fleet, a leiy has been ordered of two men out of every 500. A private letter from Paris states, that 4 6M. CAM SACIMES has received passports to return to France; he is described under the title of Duke, which he will henceforth bear: it bas been ascertained that his vote was not counted among those who concurred in the death of the King ; and that therefore the law of the. 12th of January, 1816, is not applicable to him. It appears that the Ring, exercising the power left to him by the above law, will recall, immediately after the de .re of the foreign troops, eig ht of the 38 i • who were put on the list o f banishment without trial: amcwig these are mentioned the names sof Geneng LAMA Maui and Count FaastoNt. It is said that M. MINA VD, the author of Gerieroxiau, is net included in the number of those who are to re turn. This is attributed to two dedications which he lately published, conceived in rather different prtn ciples ; in one, it is said, he professes a high admira. tion for the Imperial Government, and in the other he enrolls himself among the most ardent ofour Liberals."

This being Settling-day, very little business has been done. At one o'clock no defaulter was declared, which was expected, as the Account was one of the largest that has been for some time. A Notice was posted at LLOYD'S this morning, stating, that Government wished to contract for the conveyance of stores from Antwerp to the Thames. The stores are supposed to belong to the Army about to leave the French territory. The tenders are to be made on Wednesday, this Week, and the ship offering must sail inututdiately. A Supplementary London Gazette was published last night, containing accounts of the capture of the strong fortress of Hattrass, which led to the surrender of Sloorsaun, and of eleven other forts. Five or six thousand men, who attempted to disturb Brigadier. Generai Mtatno in his siege of Scholapore, a strong place in the territory of the PEISHWA, were beaten off and pursued, till they had lost every thing, even their arms, and were dispersed. The Paris Papers of Saturday arrived this morn ing. The following are extracts : PARIS, OCTOBER 10. The King rode yesterday to Vincennes, to see the artillery exercising, and was received by Marshal the Duke of Reggio. He remained nearly three hours, and expressed himself highly gratified with the skill and discipline displayed by the troops. M. Sejourne, Uncle of the Minister of General Po lice, travelling in a calash with the Sister of his Ex cellency and some other Ladies, the carriage upset at Ville d'Avvai. M. Sejourne had his thigh broken, bat the rest of the company escaped with merely slight contusions. Several promotions have been made in the Royal and Military Order of St. Louis.

He proposes to live in future as a private individual on an estate which he possesses near Berlin. Public rumour points out General Count Gneiseneau, Go vernor of Berlin, as his successor. There is alsd a report of the intended recal of M. de Goltz, Minister to the Germanic Diet, but this news wants confir mation. STOCKHOLM, SEPTCNIBER 22. The King and Prince Royal returned here to-day from their journey into Norway. In the vallies of the interior of Norway which they traversed, all the villages were illuminated. At Tolgen they passed under a rustic triumphal arch, which bore this in scription—" Him and no other." The King has founded an order of Civil Merit, ,which will be common to Sweden and Norway.—' Count de Wedel-Jarlsberg has been appointed Trea screr. HANOVER, SEPTEMBER 27. News has just been circulated, that the provincial States of our kingdom will again meet towards the end of October, and that the Session will be extremely important. The Prince Regent, in his wisdom, has formed a resolution to propose to the Diet some very 'itnpertant changes in the organization of the king ,dom. It is asserted, that a Project for a Constitution 'will be submitted to that Assembly, and that it is of , a nature to fulfil the views of true Hanoverian Pa triots. Some of the new Institutions that we shall have, are much approximated to those of England ; the Diet will be divided into two Chambers, viz. that of the Peers, and that of the Deputies from the Com munes. The Government will submit to the latter all demands for taxes, which will be exclusively dis cussed there, &c. PRIVATE LETTER. 4 g PARIS, OCTOBER 9. 11 The French Government proceeds, farina lente, in the annihilation of the power of the miscreants who dare to call themselves Royalists, and who arc designated by too mild a term, " Ultra-royalists."— The Ordinance of the 30th September has knocked away the main pillar of their hopes. The National Guards will no longer be under their influence. All the Staff of the Count D'ARTOIS, as Colonel-General, • 3 dismissed ; and to prove they no longer belong to it, they have ceased to wear the decoration peculiar to it. The Count siAnrots has been saved the ap pearance of disgrace, by the clause that he shall keep the rank and prerogatives (i. e. pay) of a Colonel- General in the Army; but the National Guards are no longer under his isilaeace.
