SLOAN and CO., Members of the Royal College of Surgeons, 4, ARGYLL-PLACE, REGENT-STREET, and 28, IRONMONGER-LANE, CIIEAPSIDE, may be consulted from Eight o'Clock in the Morning until Ten at Night, on every variety and stage of Syphilis, with that delicacy and secresy they have hitherto ob served. The treatment they pursue will not subject any patient to confirivreent or hindrance from business. Cases of an ex treme nature they eradicate in eight. or ten days, or if slight or recent in two or three, without the indiscriminate use of mer cury, and at a moderate expense. Generative debility, Gonorrhoea, and Strictures of the Urethra, unhappily so preva lent, are treated upon these unerring principles which have in sured to Messrs. Sloan and Co. so large a share of public pa tronage for nearly thirty years in London, and which it will be their future exertion to maintain. Letters, containing an enclosure, will be answered by return and patients, however distant, will be corresponded with until recovered. S Manhood approaches, the human form, A coun tenance, voice, and the whole intellectual character, ra pidly undergo a revolution. Love is the end and sum of life, creating image after image of ideal perfection. But in the present state of society, pure and virtuous enjoyment is often postponed and ob structed, till the excess of youthful impetuosity impels to a course of wild and 'Minions indulgence, and the mind becomes painfully harassed by alternations of fears, disgust, and passion. In this state relief is perhaps sought from the inexperienced, perhaps from the ignorant ; in either case at the expense of health, that being only palliated which should have been effectually cured. Here we propose to step in and rescue the victim of unwise indulgence from the pangs of remorse, disappointed hope, and disease; and we pledge ourselves to eradicate every taint of syphilitic poison. and to restore to it.; wonted energy every relaxation of the generative economy, whet her from this or other causes, whereby the dignity of manhood shall have become impaired ; equally contemning unfeeling empy. ricism, which with reckless ignorance destro3s where it should re store; and, on the other hand, that unworthy principte" whose proud selfishness increases the embarrassment °tithe afflicted. All classes of society, the Angla-Indian particulsrly, and those whose constitutions arc enfeebled by the effects of a tropical climate, as well as such as are about to enter intmatrimonial life, are included in the limits of this address, and to all we confidently offer the result of many years' successful practice. Daily attendance is given for personal conrultat.olf; and immediate answers are returned to country 'letters which must minutely de scribe the case, and contain a remittance for Advice and Medicine, which can be forwarded to any part of the world however distant.— No difficulty can occur, as the Medicine will ;be securely packed, and earellilly protected frosn observation.

It is the greatest preserver of the Lungs ever discovered, and contains all the healing, softening, and soothing qualities of that salubrious extract of FLOWERS, called HONEY. Professional Gentlemen do not hesi tate to recommend it, as it never disagrees with the Stonrich, and common Colds, in moat cases, yield to its beneficial effects in a few hours. _ The Genuine Preparation will have engraved on the Government Stamp, Edwards, 1.7, St. Paul's."

TO afflicted with GOUT, RHEUMA TISM, LUMBAGO, SCIATICA, TIC-DOLO REUX, PAINS in the lIEAD and FACE, often mistaken for the TOOTH- CHE, &c. &c. There is no medicine to whose praise higher and more numerous testimonials hare been given, than to BLA I R'S GOUT AND RII EU MAI IC PI LLS,—from all parts of the Kingdom, and every rank in society, their great efficacy is acknowledged. The recent cas, of the Chevalier de le Garde, Chamberlain to Stanislaus, late King of Poland, is one of the mo , t convincing proofs of their great and extra ordinary virtues. Similar effects were also experienced by the Bev Doctor Blomberg, of Mispertoo.Hall, Yorkshire, Chaplain to his late Majesty, and Hector of Cripplegate, London, who, with a spirit of the kindest humanity, voluntarily gave his testimony to their happy effects. Cases have from time to time been published, as transmitted by, or wha can beat testimony to their extraordinary efficacy from Mr. Sweeten, Leeds, Oh, Drewrj Derby, Mr. Noble, Boston, Mr. Drury, Lincoln, Mr. liattea.l7 7, Barton, Mr. Hall, Gainsborough, Mr. Gardner, Banbary, Mr. May, Evesham, Mr. Walker, Malmes. bury, Mr. Ching, Launceston. and a multitude of others throughout the Kingdom, particularly in 'London and its vicinity, too numerous for inset tion in an advertisement. The afflicted with those tormenting diseases, Gout, Rheumatic Ge - -it Rheumatism, Lumbago, Sciatica, Pains in the Head and Face, oftenmistaken for the Tooth-ache, Tic-Doloreux, &c., will find from the use of this Medicine, that speedy relief for which it is so celebrated. Anti while its efriCacy is unparalleled for the foregoing diseases, it must be consolatory to the afflicted with Gout, to he as sured that it possesses the property of preventing the disease flying to thebrain, stomach, or other vital parts. b: Tho , ras S:ratid, London; ana, by his rtrpoint. meht, i3y all respect,ible _Medicine Veiwer thrunhont the )in.

At two P.m. the fire recommenced, and at three, the tower and 'dlacent curtain to the east were breached, and the breach to till appearance being exceedingly easy, I resolved on assaulting it witi , vit delay. A etorming party, cerrintanded by Lieutenant-Colonel Tfonson, her 111jeety's 13th Rght infantry, consisting of fin, companies of her Majesty's 13th infantry under Brevet Major Kershaw of that corps, and of detachmentn of the 27th and 37th regiments of native infantry, ennimanded by Lieutenant Rind of the latter regiment,-were formed far the purpose in a ravine near the south-east angle, which k Eferded good cover for the troops within one hundred and fifty yarns of the fort, and on the signal being given, the celunin advanced to the breach with the greatest steadiness sod gallantry. They %verc met, howevcr,by the enemy on the crest of the breach with the most determined resist ance ; a close fire from a numerous body of matchlock men w a s opened on the bead of the column from the houses within the fort, and powder bags were thrown in great numbers among the men ascending the breach ; many of the leading men were shot dead on the breach, and after a desperate struggle to force an entrance into the fort, they were with great judgment withdrawn by the officer commanding the party to the cover afforded by the adja cent ravine, where they remained till I issued orders for their recall, intending to renew the attack when it might be made by a combined movement against the breach, 1 gateway, and wicket, with better chances of success. The enemy, notwithstanding every precauti6n was taken to intercept there, sucaecded in escaping from the fort before i P M., and at that hour our troops took pos session of it. I ant now taking measures for its destruc- Con. It is with feelings of the deepest regret that I re cord the loss sustsined in our unsuccessful attack. The coolness and spirit displayed by the officers and men of the storming party demand my warmest thanks, and I cannot express the mortification I experienced in seeing their noble exertions baffled when on the point of being crowned with success. To Lieutenant-Colonel Tronson, commanding the storming party, I am greatly indebted for bis gallant exe cution of the important duty committed to him. He was nubly seconded by Brevet-Major Kershaw of her Majnsty's 13th light infantry, whose exertions to surmount the nu merous obstacles which impeded the advance wercy con spicuous. The crest of the breach was at one time at tained by four officers of her Majesty's 13th light infantry —l3revet-Nl4jor Kershaw, Lieutenant and Adjutant Wood, Lieutenants Edward King and George Wade, and I beg to express me high admiration of their zeal and gallantry. Captain - Abbott and Lieutenant Warburton distin guished themselves in the service of the artillery, and their performance of the duty on which they were engaged me rited my warmest approbation. I beg to bring to your fovourable notiro the assistance I derived from Captain Wade, of her Majesty's 13th Light infantry, my Brigade-Major, for the efficiency and atten tion displayed by him in carrying my wishes into effect throughout the service. Ca s Ptain Raban, 48th native infantry, Commissariat Offi cer, also gave me high satisfaction in officiating as my Aid de-camp during the day, and Mr. Wheeler, whose ser vices I have already bad occasion to bring to your notice, on this occasion was conspicuous for the steadiness and promptness with which he conveyed my orders under a harassing fire. I have again to bring to your favourable consideration the able and valuable assistance rendered me by Captain San ders, Chief Engineer, with the force.—l have, &c. R. SALE, Major-General, Commanding Field Force in Kohistan. From Lieutenant Colonel Tronson, Commanding her Ma jesty's 13th Light Infantry, to Sir Robert Sale. Camp, Oct. 3, 1840, 3 P.M. Sir,--I have the honour to report that having been placed in command of the storming party this day, con sisting of five companies of her Majesty's 13th light infan try, under Brevet-Major Kershaw, and of detach ments of the 27th and 37th native infantry, corn married by Capain Rird, of the 37th, the party proceeded with great regularity and spirit towards the fort. On nearing the breach we were assailed by a quick and destructive fire, through which, gallantly led by their officers, the party rushed up the breach, which was crowned by officers and men, in the face of a close and deadly fire; the crest of the breach was gallantly held under this destructive fire for a considerable time by Brevet- Major Kershaw, Lieutenant and Adjutant Wood, Lieutenant Edward King, and Lieutenant G. Wade, with Sergeant- Major Airey. The gallantry of those officers, with their men, called forth at the moment the admiration and cheers of all their comrades. Finding the breach totally impracticable, I placed the party under immediate corer, and subscquently withdrew them to a ravine, await ing the orders of the Major. General. The best consolation and reward of all who were en gaged will be the innate conviction of each individual hav ing to the utmost gallantly done this duty. But as the commander of this party, I feel bound to render my wurn est culog,ium and thanks to men and oincers engaged, more particularly to Major Kershaw, whose exertions and gal lantry throughout were most eenspieuous. I have great pleasure in acknon•ladgiug the exertions of Captain R,ind and his Adjutant Ensign Mayne, 37th native infantry, with their detachments of the 27th and 37th. I enclose a list of Lilted and wounded, which I very deeply regret to fiord to ..erious, rraong them we have lost our most respected and gallant Sergeant-Major, who nobly fell at the summit of the breach.—.l i eve , S z e., E.

Sir,—l have the honour to report that, in conjunction with Captain Macgregor, Political Agent at this post, I quitted camp this morning at day-break, with a six-pounder of his Majesty Shah Shooja's artillery, a detail of the Ist European regiment, consisting of two captains, two lieute nants, one ensign, Ave sergeants and eighty-five rank and file, a detail of the 48th regiment of native infantry, consist ing of four lieutenants, one ensign, three sobadars, four jemadars, three drummers, and 319 rank and file, to punish one of the chiefs of the \Vuzarce Valley, vdio had tired on Capt. Macgregor and m} self last night, whilst waking a reconnoissance. There was great difficulty and delay in bringing the gun to the scene of operations. We were assailed Kith a sharp fire from a fort on our left flank as we advanced, and again by a small fort im mediately commanding the principal object of the move ment. This fort was carried in fine style by the grenadier company of the 48th regiment of native infantry, under Lieut. Paterson, after which we ran the gun up to the gate of the larger one and blew it open. After resting the men, and serving out cartridges, I moved on the fort which had annoyed our flank. Three companies 48th native infantry in extended order, moved in such steady yet rapid style that it was carried before the gun could come up. After collecting the de tachment here we turned on a very strong little fort from which we had been annoyed, hut they had had such a lesson that they would. not wait for us, but fled, leaving the gate open. This was executed by 8 a.m., and I cannot sufficiently express the admiration which the bold and steady conduct of all engaged czcited, the native troops fully vying with their European brethren. To Lieutenant Combo, detachment staff, I am much in debted; and I beg to bring to the notice of the Major- General Commanding, the praiseworthy conduct o f Dr. Nisbet, who was moat znlous in the discharg e of his pro fessional duties, for which I regret to say there were many . calls. I have the honour to enclose a casualty list, and though I regret its extent, I can scarcely prorounce it heavy con sidering the service performed. Captain Macgregor will no doubt explain to the satis. faction of the Envoy and Minister the necessity under which this movement was made; I can hut add that I most fully concur in his v iews, and feel that had We not attacked these evil-disposed b c e h d ie th fs r , ea t t l e ie n y ed, waonudldtithhat with out tacked us at night, as out the slightest provocation on our part.

The following Despatches have been this day received at the East I!)dia House: From the Governor-General of India in Council to the Secret Cummivee of the Court of Directors of the East India Company, dated Nov. 16, 1849. (Extract.) We reported to you the brilliant victory achieved at Bamecan over the combined forces of the Walce of Khoo loom and Dust Mahomcd by Brigaiier Dennie ; and we have now the honour of forwarding the official report of that spirited affair, which you will be happy to learn has beon productile of highly beneficial results. It. having ben deemed necessrry to send a military force into KoliiAan, one, of the strength here noted,* was accordingly despatched into that country under the com mand of Alajor-General Sir Robert Sale, K.C.B. For a knowledge of the success which has at!ebded that distin- Fuished Officer's military operations in Kohistan, we must beg leave to refer you to the official reports. From Major- Gcneral Sir Willoughby Cotton, G. C. 8., Commanding- the Forces in AtTglianit , tan e to the Secre tary to the Govcrnmant of India. Atighanistan, Head. Quarters, Camp, Cabool, Oct. 4, 1840. Sir,—l have now the honour to forward Brigadier Donnie% report of his action with Cie combined force under Dolt Al:thawed Klan and the \Valce of Khooloom, on the 18Lh inst. This official acsunt corrects some inaccuracies in my lever of the 23d, which was framed upon the Brigadier's hurried letter written on the field. Captain Hart, of the Januazecs, was not wouudttl, as at first reported ; and it appears that the toss of the enemy, although very severe, was not so great in killed as mentioned in my first account:: The rout, however, was complete. The results of this action have been in all respects most satisfactory and highly conducive to the public inte rests at a very critical conjuncture, and I cannot but feel sensible that these important consequences arc to be attri buted to the decision arid spirit of the Brigadier's attack whoa he found himself with so small a force in the pre sence of the main body of the enemy, and to the gallant bearing of the troops engaged. I, therefore, beg to recommend the officers and troops employed on this service to the favourable consideration of the Right Honourable the Governor-General. I have the honour to be, &c., WILLOUGHBY COTTON, Major-Gcneral, Commanding the Loops in Ailkhanistane Front Brigadier Dennie to Sir Willoughby Cotton. Camp, Baineean, Sept. 18,1840. Sir—My last communication will have apprised you: of our ba‘h,g crossed the Irak mountain. At the urgent representations cf Dr. Lord, Political Agent, of the proximity of the enemy to Bameean, I con tinued to press on to its relief by forced marches, and ar rived here on the 14th instant. That same evening, har ing drawn out the Ghoorkah regiment, I disarmed Captain Hopkins' cut ps of Afrghans, who, although loaded, offered no resistance; and ibis essential duty, I am happy to say, was performed without difficulty. Finding no enemy in the neighbourhood, I proceeded to make arrangements for an advance on Syghan, where it appeared the enemy really was in force. These measures were, however, rende re d unnecessar y Ly his actual but unexpected presence. Allow me to congratulate you in our having obtained a complete and decisive victory over the conjoint army of host Alaborned Khan and his Oosbeg allies under the Wake of Khooloom. Last evening I received informa tion from ray advanced posts, that bodies of cavalry were entering the valley from the great defile in our front, six miles from hence. Wishing to draw them well on, I did not discourage their approach, but learning this morning that they had attacked a fortified village that was friendly to us, and as these people had claims on our protection, it became necessary to drive off their assailants. From the reports brought in I was led Lt. conclude that only a few hundred had entered the valley, and therefore took with rae oily one-third of our force, with a six pcunder gun kMI howitzer. . _ _ I confess I was taken by surprise, after driving in what proved to be only their advanced party, to find an army in my front. To have sent back for reinforcements would have caused delay, and given confidence to the enemy ; it e ould have checked the forward feeling that animated the party with me, and gave assurance of success. The enemy had got possession of the chain of forts be fore us, reaching to the mouth of the defile. They drew up, and attempted to make a stand at each, with the main body, while their wings crowned the heights on either side. In d:slodging them► from the latter, I am sorry to say the Goorkahs suffered. After four or five vollies, a: eingour steady and rapid advance, the whole force appeared to us to lose heart, and fled in a confused mass to the gorge of the PclS3. I now ordered the whole of the cavalry in pursuit, who drone them four miles up the defile, cutting down great numbers and scattering them in all directions, many throwing away their arms, and escaping up the hills. Of the deserters from Captain Hopkins' corps, not a few have paid the penalty of their treachery, and their muskets and accoutrements were found in all directions. The Dust, and his son Alahomed Alan' Khan, and the Wake, owed their escape to the fleetness of their horses, and were last se,!ta with not more than two hundred fol lowers around them. Tue prisoners report that the Ex-Chief was wounded early in the day. Hi s on l y gun, hi s k e ttle drums, with his camp, ammuniti on, into oar hands. and provisions, have fallen The number of the enemy was at lerst 6,000, and those chiefly Oosbegs. I can farm no accurate estimate of their killed and woondea, but their loss must have been considerable. I enclose a list of our casualties, and my order of the day, in which I have endeavoured to express my sense of the conduct of the officers and men in this brilliant affair.

Canip, T , eetuinclurra, Sept. 29, 1840, Sir,—At daylight this morning I quitted my encamp-. merit at Rabat, and was joined at Charekar, five miics itt advance, by the detaehinent under the command of Capt. Fraser, of the 23 light cavalry. At Charekar I learned from Sir Alexander Burnes that no alteration had taken place in his views, with reference to the expediency of an attack on the forts at the entrance of the Gllerebued Pass, leeloeging to All Khan, and known by the name of Tootumdurra. I - therefore determined to attempt their capture immediately, and moved forwar6 from Charekar, at eight A. St , having the cavalry in ad vance. On arriving in front of Toolumdurra I found the enemy posted in a very strong position, a village surrounded by garden.walls, defended by a small fort, and several detached towers commended the undulating ground below the high and steep hills which housed the Gl:erebund Pass to the south, and a chain of their de tached forts within musket range, respectively, of the village, and of each other, extends to the eastward of the village ; one of these forts, a hexagonal structure, with toilers at the angles, is of consideizible streng , li. The rear or north of the position was defended by a deep canal carried along the high ground above the Glee cbund river; the vale below is entirely covered with gardens, •beyond - which egain rise the rocky hills to the eon h of the Pass. A party of the enemy was drawn up in front of the vil lage, protected by a mound, a second occupied the face of I the hill to the west of the village, and the towers and I forts were garrisoned by matchlock men, who opened a brisk fire on the party of cavalry sent on in advance to re connoitre. The grenadier company of the 37th native infantry, a party of his Illajesty's Shah Shuoja's 23 cavalry, and two of her Majesty's guns, eix pounders, under Lieutenant Warburton, was directed to clear the bill to cur left, and then to take the position of the enemy in flank, and co operate with the other parties engaged in clearing the village. Two companies of her Majesty's 13th light infantry, un der Lieutenant Holkham, were detached to the right to take possession of two of the small detached forts, in which operation they were supported by three nine pounder guns under Captain Abbot. The fire from these guns was also, as opportunity offered, directed on the towers and other defences of the village, with the view of dislodging the enemy from their advantageous position, and facili tating the advance of the infantry. These operations were crowned with complete success. The principal column of attack, consisting of the re mander of her Majesty's 13th light infantry, two corn paeies of the 27th native infantry, and the light company of the 37th native infantry, was then ordered to advance, and moved on the village at a rapid pace. The enemy continued their fire till the heads of the companies were within fifty paces of the walls, when they fled with pre cipitation across the river and over ground where they could be followed by the cavalry. The garrison of the large fort, seeing the position both to their right and left thus in tha possession of our troops, and Captain Abbott's guns in battery opposite the gate, abandoned the post and escaped through a wicket, which, opening to the south, was covered from the fire of the de.- tachreent. Parties of infantry were sent in pursuit across the valley, and another small fort on the low ground temporarily oc cupied, but finding the enemy completely broken and dis persed, these parties were recalled, and I encamped in the vicinity of the forts, the whole of which were in our pos_ session by 11 A. M. The accompanying casualty return will show that this advantage has been attended by little loss, a fact which I in a great measure attribute to the dread in spired by the excellent practice of the artillery, under the able direction of Captain Abbott, assisted by Lieu tenants Maul° and NVarberton ; but I have to lament the loss of Captain Edward Conolly, of the 6th light cavalry, who joined me in the morning as a volunteer. He was shot through the heart on our advance against the vil lage. It is my gratifying duty to express my entire satisfae. tion with the conduct of the troops it has fallen to my lot on this occasion to command. The rapid flight of the enemy prevented their sustaining or inflicting much loss, but the steadiness and gallantry with which the troops advanced was such as to warrant my entertaining the most sanguine hopes of success, even had the really formidable position we attacked been defended to the last. I am now, at the request of Sir Alexander Burnes (who accompanied me throughout the operations I have de: tailed) taking steps for the destruction of the fats that have fallen into our hands. To Captain Sanders of the engineers, I was much. in- 1 debted for his judicious and scientific observations both during, and previous to, the commencement of the ope rations. Captain Wade, of her Majesty's 13th light infantry, my Brigade-Major, gave me every assistance in seeing my orders carried into effect. Teiough not in the army, Mr. Wheeler accompanied me as a volunteer to carry orders, and I had several times oc casion to employ him thus. I have the honour to be, Sir, your most obedient servant, R, SALE, M.G., Comg. Detachment.

Affghanistan, Head-Quarters, Camp Calm], Oct. 6, 1840. have the honour to forward a copy of despatch from Major-General Sir Robert Sale, dated the sth inst., containing, I am grieved to state, an account of his failure in an attempt to storm the fort of Julgar on the 3d inst. It appears from the Major-General's despatch that he thought his artillery had effected a practicable breach, and he accordingly formed a storming party,which, notwithstanding the most determined gallantry of their attack, on leaching the breach, could not effect an entrance, owing to the causes mentioned in the despatch. I lament beyond measure the loss sustained by these brave troops ' • but considering all the circumstances it does not strike me to be so great as might have been ex pected. I regret the mortars were not available-for more timely service. Although the attack was unfortunately not sue ceasful, the conduct of the storming party, consist ing of the detachment of her Majesty's 13th light in fantry under Brevet Major Kershaw, and the de tachments of the 27th and 37th regiments of native infantry, under Captain Rind of the latter corps, the whole under the command of Brevir Lieu tenant- Colonel Tronson, of her Majesty's 13th light infantry, appears to have been characterised by the most determined bravery and steady courage.

Sir,—The Political Agent having informed me that several of the rebel chieftains had fled to a fort within 16 miles of my camp at Chareekar, I determined on attempt ing to secure them, and with this view directed Captain Anderson, with two squadrons of his Majesty Shah Shooja's cavalry, the JanbauzeeE, under Lieutenant Dowson, and about 500 Doorance horse, who were placed at my dis. posal by the Shahzada Timour, the whole under the direc tion of Captain Sanders, of the Engineers, to proceed to Julgar, and endeavour to surround the fort before any of the garrison could effect their escape, till such time as I could bring up the infantry and artillery to attack the place. This detachment marched before one A.M. on the morn ing of yesterday, the 3d inst., and by sunrise succeeded in completely investing the fort, and placing parties in secure positions in every direction by which the garrison could effect their escape. I have to express my obligations to the officers and men of his Majesty Shah Shooja's service by whom this service was effected. lam particularly indebted to Captain An derson for the promptness and rapidity with which his corps took up their position, and I trust his Majesty will be pleased to make known to his troops the satisfaction I have expressed at their spirit and good conduct on this oc casion. By 10 A.M. I arrived before the fort with her Majesty's 13th light infatitry and the two squadrons of the 2d ca valry—before eleven o'clock three nine pounders and a twenty-four pounder howitzer under Capt, Abbott came up; about 12, two of his Majesty's six pounders under Lieut. Warburton also arrived, but the badness of the road unfortu nately delayed the mortars till late in the afternoon, and it wes not till four P.m. that one of them was brought in play.

There is a large isolated hill about three quarter.' of a mile len?: at this end of the Wuzerce valley, its neats-st point being about two miles from my camp ; the ISte.: fort taken is or? the declivity of this h:11 at the furtheY end, and the sec.'nd ahuut fifty yards distant, at the base and clear of the hill. :The road or rather path led along the bot:om of the bill cif O e left side. My dispositions +Acre as .c - silows :—The light company 48th native infantry, under E.'‘eign Champion, crownek the hill and moved triflingly in a -lvance of the column, in close order, until within l&O yar, 4 s of the first fort, when I extended it, and it then advance* without firing, bringing up its right so as to outflank the fore on that bide. The 6th company 48th native infantry was l 'hrown out in extended order on my left flank .9nd cleared i'he high corn fields, from which a sharp fire b, d been °Fe' .6d b y the enemy, and continued to advance mug they reac i ted within fifty yards of the second fort. The main column moved along the path at t:te base of the hill. The European detail leading, follower.: by the detachment 48th, dragging the gun, the bullocks been taken out full three hundred yards from the fort:. On the head of the column arriving within forty y ids of the forts, a heavy Ere was opened by the European tail, light company, and 6th company, 48th native ing.antry,.. on the turrets and walls of the two forts, which ace - Nay kept down the enemy's fire ; during r.hich i got the gbas into a favourable position on the side of the hill above :he smaller fort. Finding that it could not be brought to* bear on the gate of the smaller fort, I directed Lieu;•enant Paterson to concentrate as heavy a volley as he could .110te on the gate; this had the desired effect, shook the an#4 enabled the grenadiers of the 48 - h, under thar,eflieerii to force it, and carry the fort in beautiful style, bsyoVAing; all in it. I have in my dispatch stated how the second fort want taken ; namely, the Seepahees, now aided by some Euro-- • peens, dragged the gun to the gateway, which watt at once , . burst open, and in rushed the gallant fellows I had the , honour of commanding. The third fort, and the gardens and fields arotind it, were crowded with men ; the light company extended *as thrown out in advance to the right, another eompam• left, and a third in the centre. The gun and colt. ut fol lowing (excepting a garrison of 40 men left in the taken) these three companies advanced in so ateadr , ,ret brisk a manner that I found myself with them close us dt r, the walls ' • and made a dash at the gate, which PAS foults, open, and the fort evacuated. The capture of the fourth fort I have already described,: and I must add two more to the list, one evacuated, closes to the second assailed, and the sixth surrendered on terms.. • The enemy was in great force, but the rapidity of 'our movements induced many to remain aloof, ready to give ef— fectual aid had an opportunity offered; their loss is heavy ; as far as can be ascertained, three chiefs are killed, *lst, two of their near relations, and about twenty-three met: ; • one chief of considerable consequence very badley wounded ar:d about forty men ; with the exception of the chien:.

Dost Mahomed Khan rode up to me and alighad front his horse ; after the usual salutations I begged him to mount again, and we proceeded together to my residence in the Compound, in which I hr.ve piteht4l-ft tent for the ex-Chief, and have provided him with every thing necessary for his comfort.
