MY Loau—l have the honour to transmit here with, for the information of your Lordship, the copy of a dispatch, dated , 24Th ultimo, front Bri gadier-General Munro, announcing the successful commencement of his military operations iu the southern Marhatta country. I have the honour to he, &c. T. Hts Lop. Lieut.-Gen. Copy of a Report from Brigadier-General Munro to the Adjutant-General, dated camp, at Murat), December 24, ISt?. Sia—l had the honour to address you on the 22d instant from Kuosgul. The force by which I was then accompanied consisted of two flank and three battalion companies from the garrison of Darwar. The banal' companies proceeded next morning to meet the battering train from Bailey. and I marched at the same time with the flack companies, with one of the battalion guns, and a five and half. inch mortar, under the command of Major Newell, for Nawelgoontl, in order to relieve that place, in which I had a garrison of Peons, hard pressed by Corsi Row Goklab. Oii approaching within two miles of Nawc'gown' (4) some small parties of horse were seen; and advancing about a mile fur ther the main body was discovered moving slowly along the side of I. rising geoundl, at the distance of about a thousand yards; its strength appeared to be about seven hundred, and as it seemed to have an intent• of coining round upon our baggage, two shells were thrown, by which two horsemen were killed'. The whole burly upon this moved off. at tended by about two hundred foot, which Cassi Row had brought with him, and the garrison of lallghurry (5). amountiog to about one hundred meld, unit was ►oon out of sight. IVlieti the Peishwa cominenced hostilities, it be came evident that the local situation of this loll voice, and Glitches extrusive Jagheers in it, would give great facility to the eileiny in making incur sions into the Company's territory. 'flee most likely way of preventing it was to find the enemy etmiloyitient iti the defence of his own possessions ; (1) The Peinhva. (2) A stronz fort situated in the sontheas port of this Jntmuiot.s ; its position is nut precisely known, but it is supposed to be about twenty or thirty miles south of &Marsh (3) Situated in the Southern Concan, near 141alwan. (4) Piolistily Noul;znesnee. nee Arrosrsniith's large map, sb at 26 oars to thr as! of Ilsrwar. (5) Nut math. upon the insp. but as there was no di•posablr regular force pre. rent. I determined at once to avail myself of the aid of the inhabitants in secomplighing this object ; as much progress in this plan has already beret made as was possible with the means within my reach. I appointed military Aurnildars to mo st of the districts iu the euemy's petse:ssiona on this side of the Nfalperliali. with order's to raise Peons (6), and get possession of as much of their respective dis tricts as was practicable. Among these men Rain Row, a native of Mysore, was appointed to N awed goond ; he got poiisesaion of above hair the dibiliet to a v e ry short tone, nod on the 19th imt:sitt lie ad vanced from a village about two miles from Nawrle goon, with 500 Peons to attack Gosiod Row Gok hilt, who was at that place with a body 01700 honer, and about 600 of this body were iiicettietted in the streets quid the open space betweeu the Leettali and fort. The rest were mounted, and watching Ram Row, who advanced at noon so rapidly that he es,- tered the pettah before the body there could mount and get out of it. The panic was so great that they galloped off in every direction without attempiiiig to make aoy resistance. Nineitel hor.ea were bike'', above 20 were left dead. A consideral.le number of the enemy were R. , w, who commanded, escaped watt ; ant two Sirdart, under Imo, one was killed, and the other wounded and taker,. Cosi Row Goklah, who was then :it Ratbun, nu hearing of the defeat of his son, istsrchtil to joio him with 230 horse cud 200 foot, and after c. ilrct ing the fugitives, he arrived at Nowelgoond on the 42r1, Rata Row havitur retired into the old fort : he occupied the pettah (/) before (hay-light on the 23(1, and was preaaiti:t the fort very hard, when the approach of mijor Newell's detachinant «aced the garriams, as lie ammunition wos nearly expended. The enemy left nine or ten dead in the curets, and they were so much dispirited by their loss Its the two attacks, that they abandoned Lallghuriy, the ghurry that protects Nawelgoond, and carried off the garrison. I have given these details, because without them I could not have done justice to Ram Row, whore conduct is entitled to the highest praise. I have, &c. Taos. MuKa°, Brig.-Gen.

Brigadier• General Sir John Malcolm marched on the 24th instant from Nluoclipoor (9) toward. Boojkitirah, near the confluence of the Sour and Lieut.-Colonel Adorns had arrived, by my latest accounts, at Shujawulpoor (10). I have already reported to your Lnrdship the reduction of the fort of Gutlock, by the detach ment with Brigadier-General Munro, and I have now the further satisfaction to transmit the copy of a letter from Major Newt'll, commune:aloe the surrender of the important fortress of Uutnmul ( I I).
