Cononitive in our last dispatch, bad taken post at Coreganni. The approach of Brigadier-General Smith, however, seems to have led the Peishwa to prosecute his Bight to the sionihward, and fortu nately enabled emit:tin Staunton to retool, in !kronor with the principal part of his corps, which he reached on the morn ing of the 3d. The force under Captain Staunton consisted of 2il hatta lino lst, 560 rank and file, with four officers sod an Assist. ant-Surgeon ; twenty.five of the Madras Artillery, with one officer and an Assistant-Surgeon, accompanied by two hun dred and fifty of the auxiliary borer, under Lieutenant Swanton.

The most perfect tranquillity continues to prevail at Poona. No akinl accounts from the army in Malwa have reached us since our last dispatch. A private letter, however, hum the Resident at Baroda states, that the last ailtiees (tom that quarter, were dated Camp at Joura, the 2911 t of Iterem her ; that Holkar's troops had, on the approach of Sir W. heir to Jour', evacuated the place, leaving four cunt and one hundred and twenty pair of bollocks to • hands; that Sir John Malcolm had advanced about the 2:Oli in pursuit of the enemy, hut, from the information obtained, it was thutight be would ti oil them too atrosiK for him without as militant:ie.
