EAST INDIES. A Gentleman, who left Bombay on the 17th of May, gives us the followin, nt of affairs in India i a The crops oi c • ton hid never been known so short ac at that time. Several of the provinces up the country had become very refractory, and it was the general opinion. that it would require the immediate embarkation of King's and native troops to quell the disturbance at ltohi!kund. The notorious rebel' Btlll - SING, many . yrars known for his emailg against the British, had commencei a general attack on the Shahjuhonpom district, bAc had`met with a desperate resistance from the troops under Lieutenant CHITTY, atd upwards of 700 men lost their lives. a News had been received at Bombay from Bap. twin, of a late date, stating, that the Expedition against Palembang had completely failed ; and that the Malay portion of the inhabitants were actually in a state of rebellion. Trade there was at a com plete stand, and ships that had actually arrived for the express purpose of trade, had left without taking any kind of cargoes. " At Bombay every kind of produce was at a most exorbitant price, owing, it is said, to the arrival of Ameritan vessels in India with general cargoes, and selling them at under rates, which so completely:over stocked the markets, drat sbipl arriving from Europe could not obtain any rate for their cargoes. The trade for country ships had become nearly at a stand, the owners not being able to take the low freights offered, and upwards of forty vessels were la d up, of 900 to 1000 tons burthen. " News from Rasa Kysha, dated April 8, state, they were all quiet at that petiod, and the troops healthy. Bombay was very sickly; and that dread disea,e, the chakra marina, raged to a great ex tra, and had made its appearance among the Euro pean troops ; but the utmost precaution had been taken, and all Europeans, not being regular settlers, were ordered to leave the island immediately." Letters from the Isle of France, dated the middle of July, state, the disease which had made its appear ance some mouths back had disappeared, and the wab healthy and in good order. AL! PACHA. 'The accounts respecting this despot are contradic tory. We sta:ed in our last, on the authority of let- ters from Augsburg, .that he had proposed to quit the Turkish ter: km ies on receiving certain pecuniary i ions for his relatives. According to another account, from Vienna, the Turkish Commanders have r.O success against Au, of any consequence, or temliug at all to break down his power. And, on the other hand, accounts from Corfu bold out the prospect of a termination being put to the cruelties anJ villainies of this tyrant. The following is one of the letters : " Corfu, September 2. " On Monday last Prevesa was surrendered to the forces of the Or.lnd St ignor by Veil Pacha, second sun of Ali Paella, who w•er.t on board the Turkish Admiral's ship, and surrendered him suit: they say that both he and Meemet Pacha, his younger bro ther, who commanded at Parga, have been sent prisoners to Cona startinople. Pashic Bey is also said to have entered Janina at the head of 14,000 troops, and that Ali Pacha bad retired into a fortress with only 500 men, who were all that had remained faith lal to him. The news of his death or capture is daily expected. " According to accounts from Constantinople, the Sultan has 11.2clared the various territories which Ali Pacha had successively added to his Pachalic to be restored to their original political condition, and to be free from any taxes or contributions for the ►trim' of three years. " In consequence of this intelligence, the Parguinote enti grz•tts who retrain here have sent a Deputation to Constantino ptr, to solicit the restitution of their territory." UNITED STATES. We are grieved to announce that it appears by the Poston Papers to the Bth, and New York to the 11th, that the yellow fever is spreading its ravages very widely in Philadelphia. New York, we are happy to " epjoys an unusual state of health." " NEW YORK, SEPTEMBER 9. " We have just received a letter, stating, that at Mobile a fire had broke nut the preceding night (11th August), by which forty houses and stores, with most of their contents, were destroyed. This is a severe visit to the new rising city. " By the Arrival last evening of the schooner Cor delia, from Curacoa, we received Papers to the 6th August. His Excellency Doctor Petrus Bernardus, Gcvernor-General and Commandant-in-Chief of Cu r.. s.oa, died on the 18th July, in the 68th year of his Doctor Isaac Johannes Elzevier, has been pro c: ai med Governor. " Accounts from the Main state, that four Commis si-ners, from the Independents in Cumanacoa, lately arrived at Cumana, with offers from the inhabitants of the former place to unite themselves with the Con stitutional Monarchy of Spain. The Governor of Cumana not being able to give a decisive answer, 3jad dispatclled two of them to the head-quarters of Morillo, to consult with him on the subject. 4' It is also stated, that a suspension of hostilities had taken place between the Spanish troops in the interior of Venezuela, and the Independent General PAEZ, and that national civilities had passed between the troops of both parties. It was thciught that the forces under PAEZ a ould embrace the offers held out to them by Moutuo, aiid Jon his standard ; it is even added, that PAEZ himself was not inimied to the ch,mge." its MaJasses stag-hountis met this day at Soutbhill Park, 2:d will meet on Friday, Tower-hill, each day at ten o'clock. The stag which is sAccred kr the first day's hunt at the Oaks, teat of the E..rl of Diary, in Kau, has had his ishrhs-savitd " l'l‘ltniakt back. ADDR :SSES TO THE QUEEN. • The Metropolis presented a sere of unusual bustle at an early hour this morning. The Addresses from the Inhabitants of the Metropolis, and that from the Parish of St. James's, had put almost every carriage in requisition, which were seen moving from various parts of the Town to the appointed rendezvous : but a•more interesting and splendid spectacle was that of the Ship-builders of the Port of London, with an Address to her MAJESTY. The Procession, consist ed of several thousands of that interesting class of mechanics, all decently dressed, and wearing white favours and oak gilt leaves. The flags and banners, many of which were very elegant, were numerous, and models of various sections of a ship, were borne on poles. Four bands of music, interspersed in vari ous parts of the Procession, playing lively tunes, contributed to the cheerfulness of the scene. The following was the order in which the Procession moved, and the flags were displayed: Two horsemen. Blue flag, motto—" Address of the Ship-builders to the Queen." A model of Noah's Ark, borne on a pole. Blue flag, fringed with silver lace. Motto—" Hearts of Oak." Blue Lig, with a Portrait of the Queen. Motto—" GOD protect the Innocent C.R." Model of the Head of a Ship, with the fallowing inscription " Long may.nur woodenwalb defend our native land, May innocence and truth break the tyrant's band !" Blue flag, motto—" Hail ! Hail ! Star of Brunswick." Model of a firat rate Ship of War. White flag, highly decorated. Motto—" We maintain and pro' wet the innocent." . Union Jack. Motto—" What we love we guard." White flag. Four hands united. Blue Bag, exhibiting a side view of the keel of a ship. Motto— •' Let Justice guide the helm." Blue Bag. Motto—" Loyal Ilritons greet the Queen of England." Blue flag. Motto—" The Wooden Walls of Old England." Blue flag. Motto—" The Ship-caulkers' tribute of respect to insulted Majesty." Blue flag, borne by two men. Motto—" Ship-caulkers of the Port of London." Two small blue Bap, like Persian standards. Motto- 0 Ckeer up virtue." Two similar Sags. Dieu o--" Oppressors are cowards !" A large Flag, with a Painting of Noah's Ark.—.-Motto, Ezekiel, chapter 28, verse 4. Union Jack. Flag, the Arms of the Ship-caulkers.—Motto, " Sons of Freedom and Justice." The number of Shipwrights and Caulkers in the procession were supposed to be above three thousand. They assembled at the Ben Jonson's Head, Stepney, it eight o'clock, and proceeded along Cheapside, Fleet.street, the Strand, Pall-Mall, St. James's -street, and Piccadilly. They were loudly cheered as they passed along the crowded streets. Iler MAJESTY had appointed this day, at 12, to receive their Address. Oa passing the Royal Exchange, they gave three hu z zas. A ludicrous scene happened just opposite the 'Change. A number of carts, in which were a num ber of well-dressed women, brought up the rear ; when, by a sudden halt, several of the ladies lost their seats, and by catching hold of their neighbours, upwards of eight fell out, to the no small amuse ment of the spectators. The Address froth the Parish of St. James's was the next. Two Gentlemen on horseback bearing a banner, with an inscription, a Parish of St. James's," led the way, and were followed by thirty open lan daus, each drawn by four horses. The Deputation with the Metropolitan Address left the Freemasons Tavern at eleven o'clock : it con sisted of NINETY open landaus, each with four horses. The postilions mere dressed in various coloured silk and velvet jackets. Mr. HOBHOUSE. was in the first carriage, and Sir GERARD NOEL in the second.— Several elegantly-dressed Ladies were in the proces sion, and the Gentlemen all wore white favours. The watermen's procession to deliver their Address to her MAJESTY to-morrow, is expected to present one of the most interesting aquatic spectacles that has ever been witnessed in this country. A ♦ast number of boats will come up the River from Gravesend : their number will be swelled at every stairs which they may pass on their way from thence to Hammersmith. There is not a boat on the River which will not be called into requisition. It is impossible to convey an adequate idea of the enthusiam which everywhere prevails in favour of our gracious QUEEN. Mr. BROUGHAM reached town on Saturday, and is actively engaged in preparing for the arduous task on which he will enter to-morrow. We are glad to state that his health is considerably improved. Dr. LUSHINGTON hacf an interview with her MA JESTY on Friday. Her MAJESTY has not yet inti mated any desire to attend the House of-Lords during the progress of her defence. Saturday, twenty Italians arrived at Dover. An immense concourse of persons -assembled on the beach; the enthusiasm was almost equal to the ar rival of the QuISEN. The sailors jumped into the sea, and brought the men on shore in their arms. They arrived at ten in the morning, and it •was five before they could get their certificates from the Custom house. They went off in two coaches, preceded through the town by a band of music; they were cheered through the towns as they passed. They arrived at Hammersmith yesterday morning, at eight o'clock, when lodgings were taken for them in a house situated in the high street, at Hammersmith. The Countess of OLD/ will emir in town this even ing, with several other witnesset. The sportsmen took the field this day in martial array against the pheasants, which are said to have suffered as much when young this staloo, as the partridges. Croydon Fair, wh,cli is the great mart for walnuts, commenced this day, when according to annual cus tom, in almost every house in that town, roasted pork seasoned with sage and onions, were dressed for the dinuers of the inhabitants and visitors to tlie.Fair. tI '• ROYAL AQUANC.EXCURSION. PORTSMOUTH, SEPTRMURR 89. At ten o'clock this morning, the Royal squadron anchored at Spithead, in order that his MAJESTY might receive the Addresses from Gosport and Port sea ; after which .it was understood that he would de- part direct for Brighton. The moment his approach was perceived, rattling peals of artillery welcomed his arrival; and in an instant every station affording a prospect of the squadron was anxiously seized.— Chimnies, house-tops, walls, and piles were blackened by the gathering crowds; while rank, beauty, and fashion, lined the shore and ramparts. The Deputation from Gosport then proceeded, in an elegant barge provided for the occasion, towards the Royal George, with the Union-jack at her bow, a band playirg GOD snrethe King, and accompanied by countless hundreds of boats of various denomina tions and descriptions. The Deputation consisted of • Major-General Charles Neville • the Rev. Charles Augustus Nork, Vicar of the exten s ive Parish of Alverstoke; Simuel Jellicoe, Esq. one of the Magistrates • William Burney, the other Magistrate of Gosport; William Page, and Robert Curry, Esqrs. and Captains Caner and Halsted, R.N. They were received by Sir EDMUND NAGLE, at the accommodation-ladder, who introduced them to the Royal Presence, on the quarter-deck, where his MAJESTY received them most graciously. Major- General NEVILLE read the Address. His MAJESTY bowed several times to the 'Gentle men who formed the Deputation, while General Ne- VILLE was reading the Address. .He was most gra ciously pleased to return the following Answer : 0 GEort.r.stes—This warm and affectionate Address from the Inhabitants of the ancient Town and Borough of Gosport is most welcome to my feelings; and I receive with the highest gratification these sincere and unfeigned expressions of loyal and ardent attachment to my person and Government." The Address was most numerously and respect ably signed. Before the Deputation from Gosport could quit the Royal yacht, the Deputation from Portsea came alongside. The effect produced by the manner in' whicli this Deputation was accompanied by the inha bitants of Portsea, was striking and beautiful. Three hundred boats, each bearing the Union -jack at her stern, and containing jovial tars and the inhabitants of the place, proceeded in an undeviating line from the shore to the Royal squadron. The Deputation was received at the accommodation-ladder by Sir EDMUND NAGLE, and presented in the usual form. It consisted of the following Gentlemen: Sir Samuel Spicer, Major of the Borough of Portsmouth ; Sir George Grey, Bart. G.C.B. Dr. Inman, the Rev. Mr. Tate, George Soper, Esq. Nicholas Diddims, sq. Thos. Grant, Esq. J. Seeds, Esq. and W. Baker, Esq. Sir SAMUEL SPICER read the Address. His Maaaszy was graciously pleased to return the following Answer : " GENTLEMEN-It gives me great pleasure to receive from the Inhabitants of the Town and Parish of Parties this Address of Congratulation upon my visit to this maritime port of my domi nions. It is ever a gratification to me to receive from my loyal subjects the assurance of their personal and constitutional attach ment towards me. It affords an acceptable proof of genuine feelings of sincere loyalty, emanating from the best principles, and calculated to maintain the honour and dignity of the Crown, the security of the State, and the prosperity of this Empire." The Deputation from Portsea, as well as that from Gosport, had the honour of kissing. his Maassrfs' hand, after the Addresses bad been presented and the Answers given. As soon as the ceremony was concluded, the crews of the several boats immediately sang GOD save the King in excellent style, in which they were accom panied by several bands. The KING was much af fected, but highly gratified. He walked arm-in-arm with Sir GEORGE COCKBURN on the quarter-deck, during the performance of the grand national an them, by his faithful subjects, surrounded by his Court and Officers of distinction. About twelve the two Deputations retired. Sir SAMUEL SPICER then went on board the Royal yacht again, and inquired whether his MAJESTY would be pleased to receive, on his arrival on shore, a loyal Address from the Corporation of Portsmouth? His MAJESTY lamented, from the limited time he could remain at Portsmouth, that it was impossible. He was pleased to direct, however, that any Address from the Corporation might be forwarded to the Se cretary of State for the Home Department. At one o'clock precisely, his MAJESTY left the Royal George, and went on board his barge to disembark. That circumstance was immediately announced by a Royal salute from every battery in the garrison, as well as from the fleet. The Royal squadron returned the salute. His MAJESTY landed at the Royal stairs precisely at half-past twelve. He was received by the most joyous acclamations of his beloved subjects. He was met by Sir GEORGE Coors, K.C.B. the Go vernor of the Town, accompanied by all the Officers of the Fleet and Army., not on absolute duty. His MAJESTY immediately stepped into his carriage and drove off. In passing through the High -street, the scene was beyond description. The Guards and Royal Marines were drawn up, their bands playing GoD save the King, while the joyful and zealous shouts of the assembled multitude echoed to the clouds. The Ladies in the windows waved their handkerchiefs, and his MAJESTY left us with the best assurances of our loyalty and attachment to his person. The KING dines this day with the Earl of ARRAN, at Bognor, from thence he proceeds to Brighton, and afterwards to London. BRIGHTON, OCTOBER 1. We have the happiness to announce the return of the KING to this place in perfect health and most excellent spirits. His MAJESTY came by land from Portsmouth. He arrived between four and five o'clock on Friday afternoon, and being recognized in his carriage, he received the warm salutations of every beholder. His MAJESTY has not appeared in public either yesterday or this morning, to the great disappointment of the numerous respectable and ele gant visitors, who are anxious for an opportunity to pay their respects and testify their loyalty and devo tion to their esteemed Sovereign. Were his MAJESTY to present himself more frequently he would afford unspeakable gratification to his faithful and loving subjects, who hourly repair to the Pavilion iw the fond hope of being able to view the object of their veneration and sincere respect. His MAJESTY leaves us to-morrow for Carlton House, but is expected shortly to return. The Duke of YoRK left us for Lon don on Thursday. Asarrsts.—Lady Blackwood, Lady Aberdeen, Sir S. Brie. bane, Sir John Clarke, C aptain Gordon, it. N. ir N. Conant, Sir W. and Lady Rut h, Lord W. Fitzroy, Admiral Markham, Alderman and lice Misses Harley, &c. . • THE ARMY. Last week Major-General Sir Jonsr Brno, 1C.C.8. inspected the military at Manchester. On Tut:Jay a party of infantry arrived there from Bolton. Thursday, Lieutenant-Colonel and Mr s.WEsrmt, with 'Captain DANIELL, arrived in Dublin ' , from'. Oporto. These Gentlemen had been Officers in the Portuguese Army, but their services being no longer considered necessary its that country. in consequence of the Revolution, they have returned home. In England• there are forty • Counties—in :event eel alone are any troops at all quartered. Out of these. , seventeen, six have only a single Regiment—five have only txo Regiments—and thus, in all England, twenty-three Counties out of forty have not a regular soldier in them. The Counties having more than two Regiments in them are, Devonshire (including Ply mouth), Hampshire (including Portsmouth), Lanca shire, Middlesex, and Yorkshire. It should be added, that in all %Vales there is not a •single soldier. • MILITARY PROMOTIONS.
