BRIGHTON, Mc. 26. It:laden is very gay, although the prospect, now a' tok.rablv certain one, of passing the winter without the De c of royalty, is exceedingly disheartening to the in t9~nts , There seems little hope of his Majesty visiting au . n ot tins 'lesson, and I can assure you positivf ly there is no note of prepatation zit the l'avilion. In the mean private balls and parties are all the rage, and there nine r w ill g r actly be some brilliant ones given on au extended oi je. Mr. T. IL Kemp (the present 'Member for Arunfkl), who is playing his cards fur the representation of the neighbouring borough of Lewes, in the next sisals runt, is rosining at his mansion near Brighton, which is lacersby the name of " The Temple ;" and here early in er ensuing month a ball will take place, which no doubt I r st iiserigin in e lectioneering motives, most of the prin eipl families from the vicinity of Lewes, and indeed ~,,-;:hoot the country, being invited. The present fer Lewes are Sir John Shelley and Sir George s ; and besides Mr. Kemp, it is rumoured that a c ' militate, Mr. A. Donovan, a Magistrate tesiding :elk neighbourhood, will start. ?in Coitus is litre, and having cast of her weeds, enters nu:: more into all the gaieties of the world.

" Mr. Speaker, and t ientlrmen of the .I.ssembl " :v unlimited confidence I hart always Termed in the loyalty and fidelity of the lower classes of society in this island, renders it more painful to me to acquaint you, that since your last mcet ing. partial disturbances have takcn . place amongst the Slaves in several parishes, attended In some instances by acts of open re. hellion. It appears from the declaration of the principal offenders, made at a time when there could be no reason to doubt their sincerity, that eel had been led to believe his 3lajesty had made them free— s delu.ion, Which even 31ajesty's Roy 4 Proclamation, con taining the most distinct and positive assurance to the contrary, seems not to have removed. •• loot-ply as these events are robe lamented, it is a consolation to reflect that the great mass of the Slave Population has continued to preserve that peaceable and orderly demeanour to which I have so often borne testimony, and their good sense has taught them to avoid those fatal ern", which have brought destructiou on many unhappy individuals. " I have received instructions from his Majesty's Government, containing some propositions fur the improvement of the condition of the Slave Population, which I shall make the subject of an only communication to you. "I am al-o to acquaint yew, that his Majesty has been graci. away pleased to appoint a Bishop for this Island, to whom is to be entrusted the control of the Clergy of the Church of England within his Diecise. and the duty of repining upon the state of the Ecclesiastical Establishment, particularly as it relates to the Slave Population, and upon the best meens of diffusing the benefits of religious inseruction to that part of the community. " In order to prime the deep merest which his Majesty's Go. eminent feel in the encouragement of the rtlieious and moral in strmition of the Negroes. they have taken upon themselves the whole charge of putting the Clergy under Episcopal control, and have placed Muds at the disposal of the Bishop, for the more im mediate supply of persons in holy Oeders, within his Diocese and his Majesty coefidently expects to receive every assirdance from you in promoting the establishment of a system calculated to prochice the most beneficial effects. " The Lords Commissioners of his Majesty's Treasury have had under consideration the heav charges to which the Navigation and Commerce of the Cniteil Kingdom are liable in his elayesty's Colonies, with a view of rechteing as much as possible all such charges ; and v espect to have it in my porter to communicate to iron more conclusive information on this subject in the course of the present month.

On the Thursday following a message from his Grace, accompanied by the Trinidad Order in 'Council, was trans mitted to the House. The papers express themselves strongly adverse to the proposed innovations, which they say will lead to the extinction of the property of the planters, and t ' - ey advise the Assembly never tcreease, should this " absurd and iinpracticible order" be forced upon them, in their applications to the Throne for hulestnification, " until they obtain that great national act ofjust ice." The reports relative to insurrections in the neighbour !moil of klontegn Bay, *emu to have arisen from an adliir in which two whites and two negroes hare been killed, and of which the following are particulars:— On the 26th of October hlr.

When re consider the great mass of people who are deprived of the means of religions instruction, from the local situation of the churches in the iliff..rent parishes, we think that the benefits likely to flow from this important measure, cannot be too highly appreciated. Some of the Highland parishes are from twenty to fifty miles wide. and with all the ob structions of lakes, rivers, and mountains, the inhabitants in many plaros are utterly debarred from an attendance on divine sery ic,., while Ole ciergyman of the parish is prevented from visiting his parishioners by obstacles as formidable to him as to themselves. Theer inconveniencies will, in a great measure, be °toasted by the plan in question. There are about forty churches to be erected in different parts of this country, to each of which will be appo:nbal a Minister, with a manse and salary of Istol. a-year. This important undertaking is to he carried into efhtct by those Commissioners to whom the country, and more particularly the Highlands of Scotland, are already so deeply indebted for their ability and filleCel.4 in completing the grand sitern of the CaletloMan Canal and the Parliamentary r tda end bridges ; and the clergymen are to exer c i se t h e i r clerical functions within certain bounds to be fixed by the Commissioners. The plans and surveys are now in pro greot. under the superintendence of Mr. Joseph Mitchell, and Mr. James Stnith of this town. and it is expected that o p era ti ons r: ill be comitruced early in spring.—par: rlcss EAST' INDIES. GOVERNMENT GAZETTE. CALCUTTA, JULY !9. (()FriciAL.) The following Dopy of a Perpa.ch rceered from Brigadier. General Sit Anhitnihl Campbell, K.C.B. and lf.C.T.s. eomma•lilia‘: the Ileitis!' Forces at Rangoon, it publisheu ler gene.4l infornia. tion : George Mwittoo, I:sq. Secretary to Gorerntr. , n:, Secret and rtditi ea/ Departm.:nt, &c &e. &e. Yor.T IVIT.LIAS:. SlR—Sinee I bad the honour of addressing you on the 16111 ult. we have had several partial uttrirs with the , lemy, except in one solitary instance. invariably 'well for on ore men. end all ruling in the same brilliant manner that has hitherto marl:id the gallant and intrepid conduct of the troops under try coin:mud. About the crud of last month, it we.. stated by some prisoners cf wee, and corroborated by a few Rangoon people who bail escaped from the jungle. that the 'Summit chief had received positive eviler' trom Court to viol:r a gznrril attack upon our lir.o, and drive us at once oct if the country. Every movement cf (be enemy plaiulr indieetii.l that sonierhing was intended. I.nrge bodiete of troops were, for two successive data, seen emssing the river shove Kemendine, from the DelleT to the Rangoon side, and I telt the mere inclined to give credit to the report, from bring well aware that had an; such order been received by the Gutman General, certain disgrace, or even decapitation. wottli he the Mori. table conseqtr.: , ce of his disobeying it. On the ntorning of the Ist inst. every doubt on the subject was removed. Three &durum of the enemy, intimated at 14 , 00 men each. were ...err r.-oesing tie front of our position. moving towards our right t and the jringle in f. oat of the great I)3,inn Pe s Tedie, and along the whole extent of one line to the left, was (weepier! by a large force, but on this r•itie, from the nature of the ground, it was impossible to necertaia either the disposition or strength of the enemy. The column i mo,ing on our right soon came in contact with the pie • •ts of the 7:11 and 2•2r1 regiments of Madras Native Infenrry, which receiver! the attack with the greatest steadiness, none of them yieltlimi one inch of ground. The enemy then penetrated in considerable ioree between two of nor Orients. end took post on a hill reboot four hundred yards from our poaition, occupying an old l'ernla and ,nmehowses In front, from which they commenced a feeble and hamlet's tire front some pingals and swivels. I instantly repaired to the point of at rock with a gun and a howitme r from the Bengal Artillery. and three companies of Native Infantry., via. one eorepany of the 7th nod two of the 22d regimei.t, the whole under toe command of Captain Jones, of the latter corps. After a short hut well.direa ;ea fire from the artillery, I ordered Captain Jones to advance with hie three cempanies, and drove the enemy from his post at the point of the bayonet, and I had the satisfaction of seeing my coders espied: into effect in the meet cool and gallant stele, the enemy flying in every direction towards their favourite haunt, and only place of safety, the jungle. During the firing on our right, parties of the enemy felt the piquetsalung our line to the left, but never appeared in any forcz., and retired on tire Ent tire from our advanced posts. Thus ended the mighty attack that was to have driven us into the sea--defeated with the greatest ease by three weak cotispanies of sepoys. and two pieces of artill.vy ; although such as enemy might he well appalled at the appearance of the whole. British line under emir. Frain %rine primmer.' who were taken. lam informed that 12.000 men were marched to the attack ; the left column% were ordered to engage with vigour. and ais soon as they had succeeded in penetrating Our line, the attack was then to have become general. Such were the orders issued t but nothing more cot tentptible than the conduct of the enemy on that day was ever w itn esse d. They paid for their folly, by leaving at least one hundred men dead con the field. We had net one man either killed or wounded. Before day-light on the following morning 'some hundred men of the Irallah birce. entered the town of Daliah, tiring in the direc tion of our post. Captain !stack. of the Bth Madras Native In. fintry, commanding, pushed forwent with a few men, and was. I regret to %ay, unfortunately shot—the Burmese mutilating his bode with the most savage brutali , y during the few minutes it rc. whined in their power. While the enemy abstained from converting their town to the purpose of annoying ns. I also respected and afforded it every pm tertian, although uninhabited by one individual ; but when they thought proper to make it a mighty scene of savage warfare, I rand it to the ground. NUITIerIIM reinforcements daily joined the enemy's army in our front, a thing much to be desired. as tending to increase the dieters% and discontent already prevailing in their lines; and having oh. served a disposition to veer les part of their force to the Dallalt one of the ricer, I determined, on the pith instant, to make as general en attack ne the very , woody and inundated state of the minter would possibly admit of. For that 'inmost I formed the force to be em ploy ed into two celions of attack ; one prneeeding by land, under the ronityrad of that excellent and indefatigable officer, Brigadier. General all 'Bean, for the purpose of surrounding the enemy on the land side, while I, with the other. proceeded by water to attack their stoekatted position along the banks of the river in front. To this post :he enemy appeared to attach the greatest importance, and the stockntlee were so constructed as to &Ward mutual support, present ing difficulties tippareetle nor to he overcome witnout a great se entice ofliveio 1 there:sum resolved to try the effect of shelling, and coneit heel with Captain 3larryat upon the employment of 1.1101 armed vessels as he might select to breach. in the event of oar mor tar practice not sitereesling. The shells were thrown at too great distance to produce the desired effect, and the swampy state of the country would not admit of any edvanee. Ti e sinned vessebt, re. the Satellite transport (lately in his Majesty's service), the Honourable Company's cruisers. Trignmoutli and Thetis, commanded by Captain (lardy and Lieutenant Greer. and the Penang Government yacht, the Jessie, Captain Poynton, the whole under the command of Lieutenant Frazer, of his Majesty's ship Larne. now took their ?dation% areording to a disposition made by Captain llarryat, and opened a tirewhichaeon silenced that of four. teen pieces of artillery, swivels, and musketry from the stockades. anti in one hour the preenneerted *lgoe' of breach practicable, wi.s displayed at the main-meet head. The troops, as prerionaly ar ranged, entered their boats on the signal being made, consisting of a &tail of the 3d, Irali. and pith native infantry, commanded by Major M'ahab. of the latter corps ordered to lead the attack, and supported by Lieutenam-Colonel Godwin, with two hundred and piety non of his alajesty's list regiment, and one company from the Hon. Company's Madras European regiment. The assault was made in the best order and handsomest style; Major 51 shah, with the native infantry, landed, and immediately attacked the breach, while I.ieutemun•Gdonel Godwin, almost at the same instant. pushed ashore a little higher up, and entered the work by escalade 4 the enemy kept up a sharp hut ill-directed fire while the troops were landing, but a' urnel flat on our Innking a lodg. mint in the place. I now ordered Col. Godwin to re.emhark with the detachment of the 41st regiment and attack the second stockade. which was immediately carried in the same style. The third stockade was evacuated by the enemy. The coal and gallant conduct of both European and Native troops on this occasion was to me a most gratifying sight. To the officers and men of the breaching vends every praise is due: and I much regret that severe Indisposition prevented Captain Mama front being present to witness the result of his arrangetnents. The inundated state of the country did not admit of any comma. nication with Brigadier.Generel Mac Ilevn front the shipping. nor did I know the result of the operations of his column until I re turned to Rangoon in the evening. Nothing could he more brit. hart and successful! Ile took by assault seven strong stockade, in the meat rapid succession, throwing the enemy into the utmost consternation : and he had also the good fortune to full in with a large body flying from a stnekade attacked be the shipping, of whom a great number were killed. The Brigadier• General assures me the ardour of his column was irresistible, and speaks highly of the able aid he received from Brigadier Mac e:reagh. He also re port% most faroorably upon the judicious and gallant style in which Major% Sale and Frith. of his Majesty's 13th and =dr regiments, led the troops under their respective commands. Ten stockade% were thus taken from the enemy in one day, and rpwards of (11al) eight hundred of his best troops were left dead on the ground :--38 pieces of artillery, 40 espied's. and 300 muskets were also captured. a loss of no small importance where hre-arms are so %tame. Three of the enemy's chiefs, whose names are not yet known, were found among the dead. The chief destruc tion of the enemy was by the land column. Our loss has been comparntively small-40 rank and file killed: I Captain and 35 rank and file wounded. To Brigadier-Gown:l Mac Bean my particular thanks are slue upon this and on all oevaitions. To Lieutenant-Colonel Tidy and firjor Jackson, Deputy Adjotant and Quarter Muter Generals, and to my personal Staff; I feel very mud* indebted for their nide. fatigable exertion% in carrying all the duties of the Perrier oven slonally under every disadvantage; and I also beg leave to bring' Ito the notice of the Supreme Government the name of Lieutenant- ' Colonel Snow, Deputy Adjutant-General to the Madras division,, whose ability, zeal, and activity I have often hail occasion to remark. I cannot conclede without again adverting to the high feeling which animate% every and every stddier under my command. cots Their patience in frequen tly utlers:ol eg the greatest fatigue, march. tug over n country alnwsit wholly under water. merits every praise. and their intrepidity and valnur, whenever the enmity can be found, cannot be au tficiendy entailed. 1 hate, &c.

We are happy in being able to fey the fallteei. rye, before our readers. We before mentioned that the rnittee. occu pied by our troops in advance, was very strung ; men di le it:ding this. on the let instant, about noon, the enemy, echo had been actually engaged in concentrating hisforce fir many d. vs, advanced to great reindeers, directly in front., shontirg and (-leer:ex. Our men were kept quiet and steat'y till they reached c ri , 'ee of ncopse of wield. chime to our advanced sentries. At this sp.l they had about 2,tMWI men, having left about the same nun lee a Qiort lance in the rear. by wiry of resente; and it wan believed 6:at they had a =ell larger force in the tack ground. %1 - ben they t•te into the copse they opened a tire of musketry And jireeds. A. it was now erie:put they intended an 'neck on the b. pov I:res. between our strongly advanced Frees runt the town. Lefty ie.:poi:4 were de tachtel to feel their intentions. The enemy attacked them ; but on the Serene: advancing to :he charge, the abide 2.0011 welt to the right about, land tied, chased by the Sepeye, kat.' and wounded about CO of them. withinit the snudle .1 casualty on our part. From what rendre be le-mt they had not more thin 12ro muskets and 2S jingale on swivel., among the who!' 2.P00. The ruhainder were armed with cream, :nvils, and reme even with sticks. To add to their mieltap. it so chanced that !: . e.tn of tee 13eh Light Infantyy, and 20f , of his Majesty 'e :KA Regiment, unite Majors Friet and liennio. het! that morning here out on differeet roads to reconnoitre, and fell in with the tinftenteree fectitiven in their retreat. We have not beard what leas the ce.iny euetained from these meetings. The following anemone is mentioned:—" A dinereeeperal of the 13th light infantry, who was employetl In a heat in a small creek, was much annoyed by the enemy. lie vit't t-en of his comrades prepared an snit:ult. Ina short time of the enemy eame down. The trio fired et hen they carne deer. It lied two, and wounded one.

The carport.' haring nn other 'nears of getting at them, left his suns and <nem to the Groat, when he mink them all get in and row him to the shore. lie afterwards ',rennin all of deem in u !whetters." On the Bch inns 100 men Erne* each of the European regiment* were detached in two parties, viz. those from the 13th light infantry, 41st, and Madras European regiment. went to the right—those from the 38th and 139th to the left. The object was to reconnoiter a lame party oldie enemy said to be at work m a very thick wood about a tide learn our posy. Both parties in going passed IA ewe/cede without wing it ; one of them shout tine hundred yards Imen it. the other at a shorter distance. The party to the eight, in returning lteme„ name soddenly upne it, end were for a short time exposed to a heavy lire fram it, while the scaling laddere were here ltrottglit up by the pioneers. On their wriest, the de r tne:m.mts ofthe 13th and the Madras Enropeav regiment instantly stormed and carried the place. Capt. Barrett, who command:et the dentehment of the 13111, we regret to say, was wounded in the arm. which hes since been amputated. ler veral men were also wounded. some with bricks end wanes, none killed. The enemy. the inetstit our men mounted the ladders, lied over the other side of the stet ado, and eseeped. (In the :eh, a large force teu'an Briesetiers M`Beim and Miereagh, consisting of 210 men from each Etnopean regiment. and about 30th native infantry. were sent to attack -three large cockailee, about four miles up the river. On arriving at the spot the aiyanee, under Brigadier 3ll'reatch, win belted, and fumed in clone columns of revue:ate se they nrr!:.ed. After recoonitetinT the pueition, elenertd - 1t1•11 :an ordered 500 men of his Majesty 13th light infantry. and 33th regiment. under Major Sae of t former regiment, supported by 200 native infantry, to esealade the nearest stockade. The men tuered off with their arms slung across their shoulders. and advanced to the place without firing a shut. The pioneers behaved admirably, placing the ladders with much canines. and precision. The troops mounted very steadily—took the stockade. and put erery matt to the sword, without a sineee man bring wounded on our .ire; about 200 of the enemy were killed here. The detachments of the 13th and :Nth than removed outside. while that of t:..: telth moved to attaek a stockade to the left. Both parties were tired open from ar.other large one stn right. when the 13th and 33th, having only two ladders, instantly attacked it, and carried it also, without receiving a single sound. About one hundred of the enemy were killed here. On getting %illtl of this stockade it was fetipd to be one of • chain of ret7- I the last the strongest of all. The second and third were tarried with some trouble, riot a sealing ladder having been leg. This wee also effected without Ines beyond two or three wounded. In these stockade* the enemy lost about 240, making their loss. by this party alone to this point, f6O. So many men had been left in the captured stockades, that us seeming the third only 110 twen were left to ater ec the strongest of el', being nearly 12 feet high. and containing not less than 1,000 men. and basin 20 guns, and. as it afterwards appeared, containing all the chiefs. .771 - titmLITO With these, however, 31ajos Sale surzeeded in clearing one faoee of the work, by taleiog post at a small port hole for ore of the ger and firing muskets as they were handed up to him—every shot telling. A fier a short time the body of the enemy went over to tue other side of the rtockaile. The Mijor, with a few men, then rut over the stockade. At the same time a party of Inn had found a wicket, which they forced, and entered the ...wk. About 4011 of the enemy instantly till a sacrifice, with the loss. on our part, of throe killed. and about fourteen moulded; among the latter, t'apt. Johnstone. his Majesty's 13th regiment. During the storm cur u: the Burmese chichi rushed out of a hut. and attacked a private of the 13th, with his sword. Ile contrived to unscrew the bayonc•. sod made a cut at his head. which passed through the top of cap, thmugh the twisted braid, and even the 'CAI!". ►ut without touching his head. The man staggered front the blow, and a caved was just about to cut him down. The blow, however. wrs parried by .lajor Sale who made a cut at the chief the latter partially parried it, but net rfreetually. for the Major's sword entered his scull. and broke in tiro. Ile was, however, obliged afterwards to use his Glint enemy's golden one. il'hile this was grime on, on the Rangoon side. under Brigadier. licnersl 111• Benn, Sir Archibald Campbell, with 25. of the 31st regiment. and nhout the same namher of !Satire infantry, wr•.h the B.niaa, *rucked and took three stockades alluded to in our c.i , . torial noticr. Twn hundred of the enemy were tilled lit these, amt it is supposed at least six hundred were wounded. Twelve pieces of cannon tell into oar hands herr. The terror created among th, Ilurnmse by these &fairs is Said to he excessive. Upwards of ittsth bodies were found dead ; of these nearly nee in dm s•orkaele last taken by the detachments of the I3th and 38th, under Major Sate. fi is conduct, in every letter we hove seen, is stated to have been truly distinguished t and it is said that more than twenty of the enemy fell by his sword. After securing the golden one of the chief he buil killed. he was opposed to another with a silver rev. which, idler a very short con trst,Yelso came into his possenoien.
