LIONEL SMITH, Major-General. Extract of a Dispatch from the Vice-President is eounell of Bombay to the Court of Directors of the East India Company, dated 9th April 1921. We have the honour of forwarding to your Honour. able Court, copies of dispatches from Major-General C.B. announcing the complete success of his operations against the Beni 800 Ali Arabs. On the 24th of Feb., the troops left Zoor, arrived on the 2d of the following month at Beni 800 Ali, offer a difficult march, and. on the same day, carried the whole of the enemy's fortified position. The Honourable Company's cruiser Pyscbe, dispatch ed daring these operations to cruise off Alash Harrah, succeeded in capturing three of the enemy's boats, and . burnt a great part of the ♦illage. We anticipate the entire concurrence of your Hon ourable Court, in the sentiments we entertain and bare expressed of the manner in which this service bar been . executed by Major-General Smith, C. !Land the Offi cers and men under his command. We reported the grounds we had for complaint against the Government of Mocha. On the arrival 'of the Topaze off Mocha, on the 2d of December, Captain Lumley, on being informed of Captain Bruce's proceedings, immediately resolved on bona • Larding the place. A previous message bad been received fron the Dole, requesting a further reference to Senna, which was eefused. In the course of the day a flag of truce came off with a message, that if we agreed to wait eighteen days, they would either acquiesce in our demands or evacuate the place. An hour and a half was allowed to send off hostages, wino should remain on hoard for three days, to allow time for the production and punishment of Hides Funds. No reply haVing +Tho 'mous of Muscat. been received within the period required, the 614 ve- I conmeated, and as the north fort appeared to be ° aban doned, boats were sent to take possession and destroy it. This enterprise, however, failed, as lt proved to be still occupied, and the detachment was obliged to retreat, with considerable loss. Oa the subsequent morning, another flag of truce wai received which was followed by two hostages repairing on , board, accompa_ vied by an assurance from the Dola, that in fourteen days our demands would be granted. On the near expiration of the truce, a deputation of merchants came on board, praying for its prolonga tion, in consequence of the approach of Bedouins, who they expected would enter and plunder Mocha in the confusion. Two of the deputation engaged to go to Zediehe, aid bring in Hajee Futteh to be disgraced, if his life would be spared. Two additional days were therefore granted, on condition that Captain Bruce received, on the day when the .original truce expired, a notification that Hajee Futteh was on the road. It would seem that the unsuccessful result of our attack on the north fort had led the Dola and his people to suppose they were impregnable, and pro crastinated their submission. The truce of fourteen days had by one means or other extended to twenty, which, however, allowed time for the whole of the property belonging to merchants under our protection being embarked. On the 26th of December, the cruisers and bomb, which had previously taken up position for bombard ing, opened on the north fort at daylight; it was breached, and the enemy driven out by half-past ten o'clock ; and by half-past twelve, the guns were spiked, thrown out of the embrasures, and the fort blown up. At sunset a flag of truce came off, stating that Ameer Fatbullab, an officer from Senna, had arrived with Hajee Futteh in charge, and that he was ready to comply with our demands. Captain Bruce en quired if he had any letters from his Highness, and was authorised to treat, and if so, to bring them off in the morning by sunrise, otherwise the south fort would share the same fate as the north one. From this period to the 30th, repeated messages were sent from the shore, leading to no satisfactory result. On the morning of the 311th, therefore, we com menced bombarding the south fort, which, by two P. M. was taken possession of and blown up, the guns spiked, and the barracks burnt. These decisive measures produced the desired effect. Here follows the account of the negociation which was the result of the attack : Extract of a Letter from Major• General Smith to the Secretary to the Gonermosest of Bombay, dated Camp, at Beui 800 Alli, 3d March, 1821. I have great pleasure in acquainting you for the in formation of the Honourable the Governor in Council, that the division under my orders having left Zoor, on the 24tb, ultimo, arrived after a very difficult march at Beni 800 Alli, on the 2d inst. and succeeded in carry ing theenemies whole fortified position in the course of that evening. The principal action fell On Lieutenant-Colonel War ren's brigade, the left ,of which was very vigorously attacked by the enemy and sustained considerable loss. He was however very quickly repulsed by the destruc tive fire of the brigade, and left upwards of two hun dred menalsilled in the field. Taking advantage of his defeat I pushed on to oc cupy his various defences as fast as possible; as we approached his citadel or principal fort the enemy sent out a message to His Highness the Imaum asking for quarter. Of the remaining parts of the dispatches, which we omit for want of room, the chief of general interest consists in the return of killed and wounded on the 2d of March, of whom the total are 202.

A man, called Lock, keeps a car, but not on springs, and carries passengers and goods from this city to Topsham, and there takes fresh fares back to Exeter. The Farmer of the Turnpike-gate, at the Topsham end of the road, claimed toll on his return, which Mr. James Terrell, on his part, contended Locke was liable to, having taken fresh fares, and obtained fresh profit.l This was resisted by Mr. Bowring„ on the part of Locke, on the ground that it was nut a carriage let to hire, and consequently not within the meaning of the Turnpike Act. But the Magistrates were of opinion, that this vehicle being fitted up for the express pur pose of coveying passengers, was within the purview of the Act, and liable to the Toll on the fresh profit.

On the morning of the 12th July last, the then Lord Mayor, Sir A. 13. King, issued a Proclamation. recommending the propriety of abstaining from the display of party colours, usual on those days set apart by the Orange fiction, for their periodical insults to the country. The abstain ing (ram this offensive ex hibition was looked op. n as most essential in promot ing that eonciliatior, to effe .1 which was well known to be the King's chit f obj -et in visiting this country ; but the King's beneficent wishes and intentions were treated with disregard by the Orange faction, and the Lord Mayor's Proclamation was passed by with contempt. The statue, in College-green, was decorated, and permitted to rensaim so dariog Me at tire day, although, as we have stated, in dcliance of the municipal authority. Notwithstanding the incurable malignancy, which this studied insult, offered to the King, the people, and the constituted authorities, proved to exist in the Orange faction, such was the disposition evinced by the great body of the people, Catholic and Protestant, that this interruption to the spirit of conciliation then in progress, bad no other effect than to discover and expose to disappointment and defeat, the base machina tions of its authors. The liberality of tie age favour ed the occasion ; party spirit was fast sinking when the King arrived, and had the gratification to find his Irish subjects cordially united. The King's letter at parting, in which the total abandonment of all causes of irrita tion and animosity was so eloquently and feelingly enforced, had, it was conceived, firmly established the good work of peace and unanimity, beyond the possi bility of further interruption — But, alas ! our speculation and hopes were raised upon deceitful appearances. Every meeting, festive or otherwise, of the Dublin Corporators, which has - since taken place, gave birth to occurrences which skewed mho were the enemies of national tranquillity; and proved the melancholy fact, that there were some persons composed of such callous materials, that the King's parting injunction could make no impression upon them, S 9 potent, still, was the public opinion, and so puny and contemptible the parties who had thus sought to interrupt the concord so happily establi,hed, that these little incidents passed away, without further effect than the calling forth of new expressions of sen timents favourable to the priseiple of conciliation, from various persons, some in high authority ; min gled fear and shame were beginning to operate upon irreclaintables ; so far, at least, as to make them temporise, seeing that the current of public feeling was two powerful longer to oppose it, and that such op position was not wholly free from risk of place and emolument. This was the state of affairs when the 4th of No vember arrived, the anniversary of King William's birth day. it was well known to be the intention of the Orange faction, to decorate the Statute on this occasion ; the Authorities could not, therefore. have been taken by surprise. For some time past, it was intimated in most of the public Journals, that the Statue would be decorated on the 4th of November. The subject was thus forced upon the public attention. The Alder men met, it seems, on Saturday, to concert measures of prevention; a letter from the Lord Mayor to the Police Magistrates was submitted for their approba bation ; and certain resolutions agreed to. (The resolutions appeared in TUE ST VrESMAN of yesterday•) One of the Aldermen above named, is the Chief Ma gistrate of Police, and several others are Divisional Ma gistrates. After the publication of this document, which of our readers wool(' have dared to insinuate, that effectual measures would not be taken to h:tve obedience to it enforced ? Yet, after its publication in all the evening papers of Saturday, the first peep .'f day disclosed King William bedecked in most gorge ous attire on Sunday, and so he continued during the day. No attempt was made to prevent the dressing— s° attempt was made to remove it after it had been pat on. We now call the attention of the press, and the people of the united kingdom, to one point which we wish to have cleared up, namely, why it is that the municipal and local Authorities are powerless when opposed to the Orange faction—a band of obscure aad unknown persons. bound by secret oaths to certain mysterious obligations, and whose acts, as far as they are disclosed, are as much opposed to the Throne and the Government, as to the peace and happiness of the country? Why is it that the city of Dublin is periodi cally abandoned to the rule of this secret band ? There is but one way of explaining the difficulty, which we shall leave to the sagacity of our readers to divine. We learn from an eye-witness, that the Statue was dressed yesterday at about five o'clock in the morning. The persons who dressed it issued from a public house in Ship-street. Three persons ascended the Statue—there were groupes hovering about in various directions, in all, perhaps, about 40 or 50 men. When they approached the Statue they inquired of a Police man, who seemed as if posted near it, whether be had any orders to oppose the dressing of the Statue; he re plied sot. This point ascertained, the Gentlemen pro ceeded to business, and havintr decorated their Idol, they very quietly retired. Two or three Policemen could have vomited the dressing—a single man could have removed it! We were told that a spectator hay. leg expressed some disapprobation at the proceeding. the Police who were present said, that although they had no orders to prevent the dressing of the Statue, they bad orders to pm event a riot, and instantly hur ried away this unfortnnate dissentient to the watch house! Thus, it appears, the dressing was effected moiler the protection of the Police.--(Dablin .Vorniag Post.) ROCHESTER, Nor. 6. . r • On Saturday evening,•jost as the Blue Ey'd Mail Cfiathatn . Coach had mused the corner at the bottios of Streod, the off fore wheel soddenly broke, by witicti • accident the coachman and outside passengers. wi.ls the exception of a boy, were precipitated to the ground. Mr. Thomas, of Chatham, grocer, had his should,* dislocated by the fall ; the others escaped with slight contusions. As the coach approached the bridge, a • gentleman ieside opened the door and leaped out, the horses proceeding at a furious rate across the bridge. into the High-street of Rochester, where they Isere stopped by Mr. Batten, who was accidentally passing at the time, and who, at the imminent risk of his life, caught the harness of one of the leaders, and. kept his hold while the horses were in foil speed, until be reached the reins and e'lecked their fnither progress. During the whole time, the boy above mentioned was clinging to the roof of the coach and calling out for help. It is hardly necessary to ob serve, that no blame whatever attaches to the driver. . The Bann sloop, Captain Blois, was paid oil yes terday and recommissioned by Captain Phillips, late of the Wye. We wish to cadtion the public against receiving base silver coin. a quantity of which is now in Gil , ciliation in this neighbourhood, as many as nine half crowns having been passed in one evening last week. at a pubic-h.buse in Chatham. The utterers appear to be soldiers. On Wednesday last, whilst the Commodore coach was•standing at the 0f6.7e-door, in Chatham. a dust cart drawn Isy a pony, which bad been carelessly left by the driver. run against a valuable 'wire belonging to the proprieties, Messrs. Chaplin and Co. the shaft passing in at the dank and protruding through the back part of the thigh, in consequence of which she died in a few minutes. Yesterday while two boys named Johnson and Hop kins of Gravesend, were digging sand at Shornr, the bank fell in on them, and when dug out they were both dead. As Mr. Noyes, coachmaster, of Canterbury, and his friend, were returning from Dover on Thursd ty even. ing, in a light tilbury, with a spirited blood horse, they had the misfortune to encounter a loose post-horse which had run away from the boy : the concussion was so area e as to kill the post-horse on the spot, and completely an_ nihilate the tilbury. Mr. N. only saved himself by his quick presence of mind and wonderful activity ; his friend, we are sorry to say, was not so fortunate, being severely bruised ; but we are happy to learn he was considered oat of danger on Sunday.—(Rochester BOXING. Events have so often come off wrong of late in the sporting circles, that the cog:ascend have bcgnn to get awake to certainties; but in the present instance they were all of one opinion, and takers of four, live and *lieu six to one could not he fonml, - Oliver was so great a fa vourite against W. Abbot. The match was made at the moment when the last fight was over, Ned Brown, stut tering with the merit of the Tuscan grape, having'chal lenged that Abbott should fight Josh. Hudson for 10/ . hut Josh, thinking that it was fun, said, and that truly, that he had a match in band, and as it was for a good stake in six weeks with the Suffolk Champion, he had no leisure time upon his bands ; but Abbott might be accommodated as soon as he liked after that event was off. Oliver leaving Hampton village next had a chal lenge, but he had rather cross the water to the Hurst, and have a turn for a go of Ure ruin, than Gght for 101.; but, badgered into it, a friend staked two gdneas aside, to be made ten each, to fight on that day week. The ring was 24 feet ; the seconds were Tom Jones and Scroggins for Abbott, and Ben Burn and Gibbons for Oliver. As we have before stated, the certainty was so great that it was useless offering odds at any price. Oliver being more than a stone over his adversary in weight, and more in length in proportion. TIIE BATTLE. Round I. Abbot hit short, and Oliver placed a right handed blow upon the eve, which gave it a crimson hue. Abbott was thrown in a close. Offering odds was useless. 2. Abbott missed a go od right-handed hit, and after closing both were don n. 3. Oliver placed a body blow, although not very ef fective. The men rallied each other to the ropes, when much hugging and pulley-hauley took place; both went down. 4. Oliver bit his adversary in the throat, and threw him. 5. A gallant fightine. round, and some good exchanges at hitting in favour of Oliver, who threw his adversary There were no takers of odds. 6 and 7. Oliver threw his adversary from the close. S. A good fought round, Abbott making the play. He was parried, and hit heavy on return ; and a courageous rally followed, when Abbott drew first blood from Oli• ver's mouth, hut he was thrown. 9. A gond round, with exchanges of blows in favour of Oliver, who drew blood in return from his adversary's nose, but both were waracitled by fast work. Abbott placed a good right-handed blow on the head at the close of the round, butt he was again thrown. The next six rounds Oliver had so decided an advan tage in hitting, that any odds were begging; but yet Oliver's blows made no visible effect. Abbott was thrown in every round. 16. Oliver had so much the best of this round, that a sovereign was begging for half a bull (crown.) 17 and IS. In the last of these rounds Abbott was reduced to a stand still, and when in he tried every ma noeuvre for a resting-place, but Oliver held him up, and weaved at him till he was tired too. The next four rounds were fought in distresP, and produced nothing to rei.lark upon. Both men were bleeding freely. 23. This produced the first clean knock down blow from Oliver in the throat, after a good rally. 24. Oliver received a heavy: right-handed hit on the ear, and he returned the tyc upon the eye, both went down. 25 and 26. Abbott seemed very tired of his match, and tried to get down as soon as be could; Oliver was too much exhausted to Burt his adversary. 27. Oliver had a most decided advantage, and in close Abbott strove to get one knee on the ground, Oliver exhausted himself with punishing him. 28. Abbott went down from weak nen, and in the 2911' he got a crack on the head which groggified him, and made him drop it on his second's shoulder. A guinea to a shilling was in vain offered upon Oliver. • 29. Abbott made a round to get down. 30. Oliver made the play, and over exhausted, he was knocked down—even bating. 31. Oliver made the play, but he received a helve right-handed blow under the ear where Neate hall ono& it so tender, and •he was. beat out of time. it was a heavy blow, and Abbott was cheered oat of the rin.. a . the winner. Oliver was the worst beat—it lasted 53 minutes. Some skirmishing for trifles followed to keep the 1 game alive. .~,.
