JOSEPH DART, Secretary. inc of the Pretender and Chiefs in Clitemh diii periril without any outsold to attack our prods to the southward. If the report made to the Resident be tree, and Ore see no reason to doubt it, neither the Pretender nor ant• of the principal 'chiefs had ever moved to ba►ds lister:lmin. It germs that the Preteoder, anemia! by Kappitopula, the chiefs of aeriePlat te°, Hewahette, Kotulale, and others. *era about the 7th inst. to the village of Totowa, between Welanhenne and Idalgasheime, its Ouva : the ce remonies, whatever they may have been, were per formed upon an open spot cutlet! Deyubetme Wale, At no great distan•e from Titbits., where Mr. D'Oyly's informant remained, and heard the firing maid the rejoicings: the chiefs, immediately this .was over, received the Pretender's orders to retorts to their feversl districts and intact the English : the 17th was recommended to them as a lucky day to- gin their °perineum. We have not yet heard that this fortsimate do*. ire deliberately chosen, has produced any extroordiessey slfeet : where►er the Candiiiis have made an attempt they have been repulsed with much loft on their side, and scarcely a casualty on oura. The seven Korles appear to be quite cleared from rebels; and all in that rich and extensive province is perfectly quiet ; large supplies of rice and slaughter cattle were sent from Kornegalle to Cindy, and have arrived safe without interruption. Caption Hardy of the Honourable Company's 7th Millie Infantry, who was left in coannuoid of a detachnielit on the frontiers of Match', made an incursion on the 16th into that province ; he marched eight miles over a steep and rugged ascent to the village of Gullo Oodshene. near which he destroyed a large house belonging to Mime Tolima, whose patio. quits he also took: Lieutenant Colonel Hook speaks in the highest terms of the zeal and energy of Capt. Hardy, whom he has just sent with 200 mess again into Matelle, where he will co-operate with Major Heat, who was to enter that province in another di rection from Harispattoo. By letters from Kidnapers, dated the 17th inst., we hear that the rebels had been coinpletely re. pulsed in their attack upon Lieutenant Irwin, at Diavinne, on the batiks of the tt . ellaway river. The inhabitants joined Lieut. Irwin to repel the invaders, and women even were been armed with sticks chasing the fugitives ; this we believe is new in Indian warfare, but it may serve to she* that the people of Saffragam are in earnest in their wishes to keep the rebels out of their province. In Dombera, Captain Raper, on his way to oc cupy a position near Atgolle, on the 16th, surp►ised a Candian piquet, of which two were killed and one taken ; shortly after he took primmer the Aratchy of IrVattelagamina : he marched the same night to Vdigodds, in the hope of surprising the Anstounsgainina Name; eight rebels were killed. among whom was the Nileme's brother; but that Chief himself escaped. On the litth Captain Raper moved his camp to a hill near Madewelly. when some of the inhabitants came to him with a white flag, and promised to bring 200 more the nest day. the the ........

Captain Glenholuse was assailed, at Godamoona, on the lucky morning of the 17th, by a great crowd of natives, of whom about 1,000 were armed, and led on by twenty well dressed headmen ; the at. tack continued till evening, and was repeated the next day until fiwe in the afternoon, when the Con doms were repulsed with con►iderable loss; Captain Glenholme's only casualty was one grenadier of the 15th Native Infantry killed. Captain Kitson has sent into Candy nearly the whole of the sick that were collected at (Jonags►nn►a, from the stations in Wallapany, previous to their being evacuated ; he expected Major Bayley to join him on the .20th. The posts in Wallapaily had be come of late unhealthy, and the country round being quite exhausted, it has been thought-expe. client to move the troops into more healthy where provisions are also more easily obtained ; fur the same reasons Bintensie. A !lipoid, Polwottr, and other places in Wellasse had been abandoned, oily preserving the line of communication front Bath. cola through Katabowa and Alliput to Bs. dulls, and to the southward ; Colonel Kelly and Captain Cleather left A1141)01:1 on the loth, on which day their last letters are dated from Hoosanwelle : it doss not appear that the Kohn kumbera Rateralle had been executed, or that any persons but a few of no great rank had submitted ; the Bootawe Rateralle, it is repor►ed, had been seised by the Pretender and Osivo Dentine, to pre vent his surrendering himself. The weather at Candy has lately become much cooler. with occasional *bowers. This alteration will produce, we hope, a favour able effect upon the sick. among whom a change for the better has already begun to 'hew itself. The Governor's health is, we rejoice to hear, much itaproved, and we trust that in a few days we shall have it in our power to congratulate the public on his Excellency'' recovery from his tedious and hara►sing coufitiement.

Notwithstanding the half official assurances given in 'event Journals, that there will be no farther partition or exchanges of territory, the politicians go ou in their old course, in their projects of mak ing new frontiers, and for the extension of Prussia at the expense of Belgium.

The particulars of the attack on Chandah are de. tailed at some length in the Bombay Papers of the 11th of Jul y. The garrison of Chandah consisted of upwards of 3,000 men, and was defended by fifty. two bastions, with as many guns, some of the largest calibre. The two columns of the storming party were commanded by Colonel H. Scott, end led on by bin and Colonel Popham. They advanced with as much steadiness and order as if on parade, to within twenty paces, when a simultaneous dash, made in the most intrepid manner, by both co lumns, carried them to the summit of the breach. They then separated to the right ■nd left to op• pose the enemy, eight hundred of whom flanked the breach, and fought with such resolution that ae• veral of our officers were opposed hand to hand ; and, at this itme, Captains Charlesworth and Wat son received severe sabre wounds. After a close and warm contest, the enemy gave way in all direc tiuns. Many threw themselves from the walls, and mere killed in the fall or cut •p by the horse. The breach was capital, and of such easy ascent, that a horse-artillery gun was run up, and by great labour brought into the interior of the city. The heat in the batteries was excessive ; the thermometer in the open air at noon being 145 deg. ; mid several Eu ropemis died in consequence of the exposure. A considerable treasure has been discovered in this place, which will yield a rich booty to the attacking lorce. The fall of Cliandah took place on the 28th of May. Advice, had been received from Sir John Malcolm's camp at Kevree (about 20 miles north of Asseerghur), dated June 3, at which time Bajee Row was close to Sir John's camp. on his way to Bewares. The conditions on which Bajee Row had given himself up are said to he. a safe conduct to Hennes, and a residence there, under the protec tion of the British Government, with sit annual in come of 10 loco of rupees; Nee Row renouncing all claims to sovereignty. Another gallant affair took place on the 10th June, 111 the capture of the fort of Pritchilghur, by Lieutenant-Colonel Cunningham, which was carried by a sort of coop-de-routs; in the course of a few minutes after the attack commenced. which was not till the garrison had been repeatedly summoned to s►irrrtider, the place was in the possession of the British. The last military operation detailed in these papers is the fall of the important fortress of Multagaum, which occurred on the 12th June. This event appears to have been accelerated by aii explosion, which took place at noon on the 11th, of their grand magazine, as on the following day the garrison sent to propose an unconditional surrender. The British standard was displayed on the highest towers on the 13th, but the garrison were spared the humiliating ceremony of laying down their arms till the following morning, It was deemed neces sary, in consequence of the extreme distrust of the proinise to spare their hires which they had evinced. and in consideration of their natural fierceness, and the indelible disgrace they attach to bring disarm. ed, to direct all the Europeans and a company from each corps to he drawn up to prevent any rash act the enemy might attempt to commit, or well as to witness their subsists * . The garrison marched out, and formed opposite our line, at the distance of twenty-five paces, with the greatest regularity and decorum, and laid down their arias of every description without a murmur. When all the irons were placed on the ground, the Arab Jemidars respectfully entreated Colonel M'llowal to restore them their swords, or some re membrance of his kindness. The Colonel, without hesitation, presented all of them with their arms. He then proceeded to restore to every Arab his knives, his carpet, and his clothes.

The fort of Nltiliagauni is described as of very great strength, and almost impregnable wilhoot the help of some such accisleut as occurred on the present occasion. CEYLON INTELLIGENCE.
