WHEN I made the late Lottery Scheme, I intro-, dueed Thirty 'Thousand Pound Prizes (as I generally do when Contractor); and I gave as a reason for so doing. that those . Piius are generally sold at my Offices, and the result has proved the correctness of my anticipation, for I sold No. 15,756 the .r 40,000 Prize, drawn 3d instant, in Seven Shares; and I am happy to find the present Contractor has adopted my plan, as he has introduced Two £30,000 Prizes ; therefore I look forward to teat Month adding to the already splendid List of 150,000 Capi tals sold by me, for I sold the First ever drawn, the Last ever drawn, Three in one Lottery, and Fourteen other .e 30,000 Prizes. Ido not hesitate acknowledging that the present Scheme is an im provement upon mine, tor, in addition to the Two £30,000 Prizes, there are Two of £20,000, and various other Capitals, and my ar rangement of not having any Blanks is continued ; bet the princi pal feature in the New . Scheme, is, that some persons must, for the trilling Risk of W 4. 19s. get the Two £20,000 Prizes, and all the other Capitals may be gained by an equally trifling Risk ; and fur less than Ten Shillings £1,250 must be obtained.—Schemes, with full Particulars of this advantageous mode of adventure, may be had gratis, at my Offices, where Tickets and Shares are on sale.

Cr I fee! so confident in the stability of the English Funds, and so assured that the Prices of all British Securities must be consi derably higher, that I hereby undertake to pay the Holders of either of the Stock Prizes in the present Lottery, if bought at my Offices, £lOO Money for each £lOO .1 per Cenci. should they not be above that Price in the Stock Market when the Prizes are drawn.

Dispatches have been received at the E tst House, from the Governor-General in Council, at Furt William, with inclosures, of which the following are. extracts and copies: Extract from a Letter from the Governor-General in Council to the Secret Committee of the Court of Directors, dated Fort William, 26th Apri1,1924. We have much satisfaction in reporting the success which has attended our open ations against Assam. After considerable delays, occ.:voned by the difficulty in pro curing boat.. and supplies, Brigadier M'Mmine moved forward with the force under his command, consisting of the Rungpore light infantry, Chumparum ditto, and Dinagepore local battalion, with the flotilla of gun. boats, on the 22d ultimo, and reached Gowahati, the capital of Carnroop, on the western d•vision of Assam, on the 28th ultimo, without experiencing the slightest resistance, notwithstanding the strength of several of the enemy's positions, and the natural difficulties of the country. The native Chiefs of Assam have waited upon Brigadier M'Morine, and have manifested the most friendly disposition, but have not as yet afforded any effectual assistance. The Burmese, after evacuating several strong stockades in succession, without firing a shot, appear to be in full retreat towards Ava. They - have committed several atrocious and sanguinary mur ders; and we regret to say that there is little chance of our troops overtaking them, as the advanced state of the season, and other unavoidable circumstances, had pre. vented our further forward movement. The Agent to the Governor-General, Mr. Scott s on hearing of the occupation-of Gowahati by our troops, proceeded across the hilly track which intervenes be tween Sythet and Assam, to join Brigadier M'Morine, with an escort ofthree companies of the 23d native in• fantry-; and private accounts have been received from; Sylhet, by which it appears that he had arrived in the neighbourhood of Gowahati on the 13th instant, with. out 'experiencing any difficulties or loss by the way. Copy of a Deport front Captain Noon to rite Major of Brigade at Chittagong, dated Camp, Ramoo, lids May, 1854. Fit a—On the 9th instant, a naik, from the Rutnapul. lung stockade, came in with a Bengallee villager, stating that the latter had seen the enemy advancing upon Rutnapulltmg, with font- Chiefs and about 150 men, wishing to negociate, which the naik also stated to be the case. Conceiving this to be some design of the enemy to put the Je madar off his guard, and thereby more easily gain possession of the stockade, I determined upon moving with the whole of my disposable fotce to ascer tain what their intentions were, leaving the convales cents of the 23d, the whole of the provincials, and one hundred Mugs, to protect the cantonment and sick, in ease the enemy :night detach a party to outflank me. • I moved off ab,ut five r.u. the detachment 23d Native Infantry leading. On our arriving near to the gockade (about half a mile), a heavy fire was opened upon us from the hills on the left of the road, which the enemy had taken' possession of in numbers and forti fied; their larger guns were fired from the further hill, and the smaller ones from the lower, thereby com pletely commanding the road. The naik of the Pro vincial Battalion, who bad come to give the report with the Bengallee in the first instance, told me that we were • _ very near the plain where the stockade was; I conse quently pushed on with the detachment of the 23d, and reached the plain. 1 then returned with a few 'men to- bring on the guns, directing Ensign Campbell to fol low, should I not jain him in a shoat time. It was then to my disappointment that I found that two of the elephants had thrown their loads and blocked up the road. This, Captain Pringle reported to ne t was the fault of the mahouts. To extricate the gun, which, together with the gear, was hanging to the elephant, we were obliged to cut the tope, but from the inexperience of Lieut. Scott (having never seen guns carried-on elephants before), and none of the golundauze being present, after many trials, and failing in all, I was obliged to leave it, and take steps for carrying away the ammunition, which the other elephants had thrown off, and also that vt hick bad been left on the road by some coolies, who had run off. Previous to this, I had been joined by Ensign Campbell. We with difficulty succeeded in g etting it away, chiefly by the exertions of the sepoys, the Mugs having hid themselves in the jungles, with the excep . - tion• of a very few, who assisted the sepoys. After this was effected, I proceeded quietly with a small patty of sepoys and an elephant, and brought in the gun, with as many things as I could find, though sever al articles ate missing. To give the men some rest, and an opportunity of pro curing water, I took up a position on the plain, and there remained on the ale: t .lot ing the night. One of the Mugs fancied he saw some Burestahs creeping towards us, and commenced a running file, ishich was with difficulty stopped, otherwise we Remained quiet. The enemy were firing and shouting dining the whole time. From the circumstanee of the ammunition coolies having deserted, and the guns being tendered perfectly u s eless, by the great deficiency in the detail of artillery, and not placing any confidence in the Mugs for support, should we again have expetienced a tire from the hills, even by taking a circuitous route, and time being no possibility of procuring supplies for the men, 1 deemed it most prudent to return again to Ramoo, there to await the .arrival of Captain Trueman's detachment, as well as to -obtain further information as to the strength of the enemy's force. On my return to Ramoo, I was surprised to hear that the Jemadar, with his party from Rutnapullimg, .bad arrived about two bouts before. -- dr _ _ • PRIVATE EDUCATION.—A Married and Beneficed Clergyman, heretofore Tutor to a Nobleman of the highest rank, and subsequently having for some years received a few Pupils nto his Family, resident a moderate distance from London, has now a Vacancy.—Lctters to be directed for Rev.
