The . first remarkable passage in it is that in which King Joseph asserts, that the Government of the United States had agreed to furnish hint with the munitions if war. This may even be said by such a person as Joseph Butmaparte ar his brother Napoleon, and yet not ba tree ; as..cmither of those worthies was eminently re markable. for his veracity : but whn .we come to the passage wherein the former is officially directing his agenta-so bribe the servants of the Spaniards in power, who opposed his projects, to poison their masters, our c.rcilence fails.

Ili The 4siatio Mirror of the 15th April communicates a number of curious particulars respecting the state of politics in the East. It seems that, notwithstand:eg the friendly professions of the Rajah of Berar to the British Government, and the signal forbearance with which lie had been treated, some proceedings of a dark and treacherous, as well as a highly dangerous charac ter, were brought home to that incorrigible Mahrutta Chieftain. While in pursuance of formal conventions he was issuing public orders to his officers for the deli. very of his forts to the British army, it was discovered from an intercepted correspondence, that he secretly encouraged the Killedars and Commandants to gain time .by every possible expedient, and evade the sur render to the last. 'lhe same spirit of duplicity and I perfidy was detected in an intercourse he maintained with Bajee Row (formerly our friend the Pcishwa) This chief, it is known, after escaping the Generals Smith and Fritzler, was marching directly toward), Nagpore. From the intercepted letters it appeared that the Rajah had determined to take an unexpected leave of the British, and throw himself' into the arms of his worthy Ally. Our Resident, therefore, on find ing his suspicions of this false act confirmed by unities tioneble documents, sent the Rajah a polite invitation to converse with hint at the Residency. His Highness, thinking proper to refuse the desired interview, was seized in his palace by three companies of British troops, and sent off under a strong escort to Allahabad, whence it was presumed he would !hid his way to Calcutta.-- A tried friend of the Company's Government is said to have been placed on the Musnud of Nagpore, as sue. cessor to this refractory and ungrateful Rajah, who had been indebted for his own sovereignty to the favour and indulgence of Great-Britain. ACcounts were received at Nagpore on the 26th March, that General Smith had come upon Bajee Row by surprise, and that, in an encounter which followed, the fatuous Gokla fell. This circumstance, however, if' it really happened, does not seem to have checked the progress of Bajee Row, or at least to have altered the direction of his movements.— We find by the advises sent, that, on the 11th of April, a general belief prevailed at Nagpore, that Bajew Row was advancing thither " with an immense force," (this we take to be a mere figurative expression), that - • he had already reached Jaulitah, and would be in tha neighbourbead of Nagpore by the 9.4 th of the month. The purpose of' this extraordinary movement was pm bably to reunite under the old l'eishwa banners all the scattered bodies of Mahratta troops, beaten as •they were, and nominally disbanded, will& had been en gaged in the service of the Rajah, or even of the Chiefs to the northward of Nerbuddah who had signed forced treaties with the Governor General. -. Although me have little room to question the fatal result of this.ape parently desperate undertaking to he Peisliwn, it • • would be unfair eo..withhold the applause of a soldier fro:n the baldness and decision of those military coutiv stlds which could suggest to 13ajee Row a march of little less than 500 ini!cs (fhr such is the distance front Hs capital to Nag/mt.:2), with an active assailant harrissin•• his rear, And the eutntry . in front and on every side of him in the hands of a victorious enemy. :t is plain that, throughout the whole operations of this war,• a greater weight of embarrassment MI upon Lord Flat ttegs, from the unexampled bad faith of the Mahratta Chide, alma from the skill or courage of their armies. Every one of them practised the must revolting insin cerity. The Peisliwa in the first instance accused his own officers of disobedience ; and shut his eyes to the recruiting which they carried on extensively in his name. The 14,111 of Nagpore followed this precic.us example, and carried his Mahratta chicanery so far as to yield his own person to the British authorities, while the whole force of his dominions was drawn up against them; and they were compelled to gain by battle the guns which the Rajah had solemnly sworn to surrender. The younger Ilolkar, after his decisive overthrow, as. cribed the previous necessity of fighting ro the mutinous spirit of his soldiers! 'and Seindialt's hypocrisy left no bloody traces behind it, only because he was already conquered. Wine he had time to move. The l'indar 7 rees are annihilated as a predatory, power; and it is fortunate that they ere so. Their increasiug crimes and numbers, 'welted by the four great Mahratta Sovereign- - • ties, would havet,been altogether inconsistent with the peace of India end might have proved ruinous to the stability of our 4siatic empire, had , not both been amia soitably and effectually glianhalaby • the vigorous policy of the British local Government in. the. East. An ad dition 0r5,000 men to our military establishment in India is looked upon in these accounts as likely to be authorised on the representations of the Governor Ge neral. A Chief, belonging to the Creek Indians, is arrived in the Semiramis, for the purpose of laying before the Witish Government the partielar detaiis of the •uf ferings of his nation, in consequence of the remit out rages committed by the American army in West Flo rida. The Chia is said to have been employed during the litr e American: war as interpreter to the Indian army under the . cemnumi of Major Nichols, .of the Mftrince. miNh i gui V \i
