EAST INDIA PRIZE-MONEY, TO THE EDITOR OF THE ASIATIC JOURNAL. ...... SlR—One of the surviving captors of Seringa- Ipatam in 1799, in your last number (for August), , calls the attention of our Honourable Masters to. wards our claims to the so-long-delayed second .dividend of prize-money. I beg leave, through -the same channel, to solicit their consideration -of the claims of the captors to the second divi -dead of the booty taken `by the army under the Duke of 'WELLINGTON (then General Wir.LEs •-,LEY), during the campaign of 4803 ; also to the v.property captured by the force, under fhe late Colonel WALLACE, at Chandure and Ghaulna, :•.iU 1804.

( From the Journal de Paris, Sept. 28.) 11AMB C UGH, SEPT. 22.---(PrivateiLetter.)—An order issued "*"..by the Minister of War at St. Petersburgh, which has been re •ceived as Tulezyn, the bead-quarters of the Southern Army, enjoins all the Generals and superior and subaltern officers who had obtained leave Of absence to :join their respective corps, so hat the army may be entirely complete by the 20th September. Noticehas also been given that the Emperor Alexander will be -at Tulezyn in the beginning of October to review the troops.— consequence, the several divisions have been put "in motion to take up more concentrated positions. Theseinovements have not failed to give rise in Volhynia to reports more or`less exag gerated. Some persons con:cider the assernbling of the army to have only one object, that of executing evolutions on an exten sive scale ; while others think it is the prelude to some import ant operation. When the Emperor leaves the Southern Army he will go to Rischenew, in Bessarabia, to inspect the army of General Sa hanieff, which is encamped on the frontier, joining the Molda vian territory. This corps - is partly composed of light troops, among which are numerous Pulks of Cossacks. r _From the Quotidienne) . Fa ANXF 0 Rl', SEPT. 20.—We learn by letters from Vienna, the important news that a number of Egyptian transports have -arrived at Suda, and landed a corps of troops estimated at 4 or 5.000 men. 'These troops are at present encamped at some dis tarce from the port. They were escorted by only 3or 4 vessel s of Hussein Paella's fleet, which, some days after landing them. left Suda to fetch more troops from Alexandria. These vessels (lid not meet with any of the enemy's ships on the passage. It is therefore certain that the news of the sailing of a Greek squa ,dron from Hydra to Spezzia, to watch the motions of the Egyp tians, is without foundation -; though several Greek reports have announced the departure of the squadron. The Captain Pacha was at Soda, to escort the new Egyp .-tian corps to Navarin, where 'it 4s to land, in order to join Pacha. But it was not known when the Greek Ad. miral would arrive, as. he ma engaged watching Sachtury's -squadron, on the west coast of the Morea. Meantime the Pacha of Candia had requested the Egyptian Commander to join him with his troops, to assist him in quelling the insur rection of the Sphackiotes, who had made some prOgress ; .hnt the Egyptian refused, pretending that he could not leave the vicinity of the coast ; that his 'destination was the Illmea ; and that he might every moment receive orders to embark, so that it would he impossible for him to join in such an expedition. It seems that the Pacha of Candia is in some embarrassment, and that he has already last many men in his combats with the insurgents., The latter are endeavouring to compel him to shut himself up in the fbi- -tresses. Ibrahim Pacha complains bitterly of Commodore Hamilton, who has refused any explanation of -his connections with the Greek Govornment, and treats him as an enemy, for he has supplied the Greeks with some troops. ammunition, &r. His officers took part in the attack which the Greeks made, and in consequence of which Ibrahim was forced to retreat to Tripo. lizzs, where he remains wholly on the defensive, having latterly sustained very considerable losses. Redschid Paella is still at Caravassara, but he has sent fresh reinforcements to the troops which he has left before Misso. longhi. (From She Journal ries Debals.) NAPOLI in s ROMANIA, A tro._2s.—As the Journals of Vienna and Smyrna continually calumniate the Greek navy, accusing it of impeding neutral merchant ♦easels, we here com municate to you an official document, which will let you into the true characters of certain pretended neutrals, and particu larly the Austrians. They are nothing less than Turkish auxi liaries, furnished with false papers : PROVISIONAL .GOVCRNIttEXT OF GREECE. The Secretary of State-to the Commander of his Imperial Ma jesty's and Apostolic King's Vessel the Orion. When Colonel d'Accurti, Commandant of the squadron of his Majesty the Emperor and King, in the Levant, was at an ehorin this road with the Bellona, he took under his protec lion, against all right and usage, two merchant vessels, carry - ing his Imperial Majesty's flag, which, loaded with provi sions belonging to the Ottoman Porte, and bound for places in the possession of that power, were taken by two Greek vessels of war, and brought in here to be regularly examined by the tribunal established for that purpose. The Provisional ~-Government, by its protest in the note of the 2d (14th) of May, ...against similar proceedings of so equivocal a nature, did not fail to assert its rights. When Colonel d'Accurti quitted this road, he repeated the same act of violence at the harbour of the Isle of Spezzia, by using force to carry offanother ship, whose papers, which are to be seen at the office of the Prize Court, evidently prove its desti nation to have been Prevesa, and give a direct contradiction to - its feigned papers. Colonel d'Accurti declared, at the same time, that he would deliver, without exception, every Austrian merchant vessel which might be taken by the Greek i cruisers, to whom he thus forbade the right of search. In thus preventing, against all right and reason, the legal examination of papers and cargoes, he authorizes the flag of • his Imperial Majesty to protect munitions of war which it may be necessary to have transported to the enemy. Notwithstand ing this, the Provisional Government were firmly persuaded, , until now, that the Commandant of his Majesty's squa. , drop, after thus violating the most sacred rights of neutrality, would at least have 12t the vessels proceed to their destination at their own risk ; but it is with , . the greatest pain they have just learnt, by the official dispatches of Admiral Miaulis, that Colonel d'Accurti was pleased, with the Bellona, to convoy these vessels to the port of Suda, where the enemy's feet is assembled; whence, perhaps, it will again please him to convoy:them to Patras, their true destination. If a vessel of war of any nation whatever, professing to be nentral„ openly protects and undertakes to convoy merchant vessels loaded wall munitions of war and provisions sfor the enemy, that alone is an infraction of the neutrality, and the said vessel begins to act in a manner no longer equivocal. The Provisional Government having an unshaken confidence in the justice and clemency of his Imperial Majesty and Apos tolic Bing, who has deigned to proclaim a strict neutrality during the present struggle between Greece and the Porte ; and firmly persuaded that the conduct of Colonel d'Accurti cannot 'be conformable to the instructions which he has received from his august Government, solemnly protest against his proceed. ings, by which he has trampled under foot the most sacred laws of neutrality. The undersigned therefore tuldre*es these presents to the Commander of the Orion, informing him, that as he belongs to the squadron of Commodore d'Accurti,- who has openly committed an act of hostility, and having probably received his instructions for the. same purpose, the Provisional Government cannot but see with inquietude his presence in this port, and begs to decline any relation or communication with . him until satisfactory explanations of Colonel d'Accurti's con duct shall have been received. Against his conduct the Go vernment have thought it their duty to make the most formal complaints to his Imperial Majesty's and Apostolic King's ,conduct. „Napoli di Romania, this 12th day of June, .1825. The Secretary of State, (Signed) MAVROCORDATO. It has been announced in the Calcutta and .Bombay Papers already, that occurrences had taken place in Bhurt 4 pore of a nature likely to lead to the interference of a British force, for the purpose of settling the succession to'the'sove reiguty of that place, but their interest has been materially diminished by that arising out of the campaign with the Burmese. To those, how ever, who wish to acquire an accurate knowledge of what is going on in our Eastern possessions, the following article, which explains the origin and progress of our connexion with Bhurtpore, will be considered curious and interesting. It is extracted from the Bombay Gazette of the 20th of April:— It may appear strange to many of our readers that we an nounce war in the heart of India with a considerable degree of satisfaction ; but so it is ; being confident that it is not only in our power to assign motives sufficient to justify the feeling, and secure us against the charge of a sanguinary disposition, but to gain proselytes from the most zealous votaries of peace. 'From those who are acquainted with the natives of Blinn pore, the very name will suffice to bear Us out, and many who are not aware of the detestation and insolence with which they conduct themselves towards Europeans, may recollect their early treachery and dereliction of every principle of good faith, for which even the most savage nations have generally evinced some respect. But that all may be convinced how essential hostilities are to the future security of the country, we shall not confine ourselves to the mere relation of proximate circum stances, but sketch the leading characteristics that have marked these invulnerable heroes from their first intercourse the British Government. But in order to avoid keeping our readers in suspence, we shall first account for present warlike prepa rations, and detail every proceeding to the utmost of our in formation; and then, by a sort of historical ellipsis, make a retrograde leap over years of monotony to periods of interest and importance. A few months since, the late Rajah finding his health on the decline, requested the British Government to acknowledge his son, an infant six years of age, as his heir apparent. The Resident of 3lalwa and Rajpootana accordingly recognized the child with the usual formalities, about the beginning of February, last. Scarcely had a month elapsed when the Rajab died. " Ilts appointed successor was duly proclaimed ; and, as is too frequently the case on the accession of an Asiatic infant prince, the shouts which hailed his opening career were the signals for the explosion of private intrigue, unfurling the standard of rebellion, and the sacrifice of human victims to ambition and avarice. A cousin of the young Rajah, named Doorjun Led, aided by a numerous gang of partisans, amongst whom were three regiments of regulars seduced from their alle giance, gained possession of the fort- by blowing open one of the gates, and usurped the sovereign power. The Rajah, with 500 soldiers of unshaken fidelity, had retreated to private apartments in the palace when our accounts were dispatched ; and it is stated that the rebels are only deterred from attacking this asylum, by a threat of the old Ranee, to explode an ex tensive magazine of powder in her possession, on the event of force being resorted to •, having determined, that the life of the child shall not be forfeited without the same fate attending his enemies. Doorjun Lol is represented :is being a few degrees above idiotism, which renders him a convenient instrument for the aggrandizement of a younger brother, who is reputed to pos. sess abilities and ambition unrestrained by principle or feeling. Te treaty we are at present under with this state entitles it to our assistance in such emergencies, and about 10,000 men, which were assembling from the nearest stations, with a suit able battering train, are by this time in active operations, as the siege was expected to commence about the 15th. Sir David Ochterlony arrived at illuttra on the 24th of last month to take the field ; and General Reynell was then expected. For the above account we are indebted to a friend sk 113 possesses every opportunity of furnishing us with correct infor mation ; and, unless prevented by the fatigues of arduous duty, we feel rather sanguine of being favoured with farther details. Bhurtpore is situated in a plain 28 miles N.N.W. of Agra. The fortress was originally built by an enterprising Jaut, named Churamun, who had enriched himself by pludering the baggage of Attrungzebe's army, in his last m a r c h to thellec can. After various changes in the state and opulence of Bhurtpore, it first became interesting as connected with Bri , tish politics in 11303, when a treaty of perpetual friendship was concluded by Lord Lake with Runjeet Sing, the Rajah ; by which the interests of both Governments were to be mutually supported against all hostile measures on the part of any other power whatsoever. The solemn manner in which this treaty was ratified, and the inferences drawn by the British Government from a conscious ness of its own integrity, lulled all suspicions of (itipil6cy when, to the ' stonistunent of every one, it was discovered, that without a shadow of justification, and but very few of those luring probabilities which induce barbarous rulers to violate their contracts. Runjeet Sing was privately negoctating with Holkar, our bitterest eneely, and with. whom we were then at open war. It was not a time to be over fastidious in resenting deviations from political virtue, and expedience suggested that it would be more prudent to attribute the transaction to wicked and designing Ministers, than come to an open rupture with the Rajah, to whom, accordingly, every indulgence was conceded; and hopes were entertained of a favourable. re sult. Although lenity and forbearance affords an opportu nity of recovering a false step without conviction, or the more powerful operations of fear on the mind void of principle, it will avail but little. Runjeet Sing, who considered lie had less to fear, or more to gain, from a violation of the treaty than its observance, now openly supported Holkar : the consequence of which was an investment of his capital by the army muter Lord Lake in 1305. About this - period a most singular incon sistency of opinions prevailed in our camps. Monson's retreat proved with what respect he had viewed his antagonists; while the successes of Lake, in the other extreme, created an unwar rantable contempt for our Asiatic enemies, and induced a be lief that miracles were always to attend his banners ; but in this instance it was discovered, when too late, that ordnance stores were necessary auxiliaries to faith, if a town and fort well fortified are to be attacked. But either from parsimony . 1 or other causes, a great deficiency in these essentials rendered the siege abortive. It has been said that General Lake in tended blowing open the gate, without loss of a minute after his arrival. That success would have attended such an enterprise is probable—at least it appears to be the most rational mode, of proceeding, situated as he was, without the means of rendering formal approaches effectual. But artillery and engineer officers were present, and he considered it incumbent on him to ask their advice, and also to follow it. In so remote a period, the truth, perhaps, is not easily obtained ; but if reports are to be believed, it is not unreasonable to conjecture, that with the ex ception of their uniform and connnissionss these officers .pos sessed but little that could entitle them to a voice in council, or even a situation in the camp ; being as void of scientific know ledge as they were of ammunition,—to say nothing of common sense. The evil results of this disastrous siege were not only loss of reputation, but also many of the braves troops in the world ; with whose blood tho ditch of Bhurtpore was crimson. Th e slaughter being greater than the aggregate of what occured in any three general engagements dining these wars. The tri umphant Jauts, intoxicated with ablaze of victory which they have never forgotten, believe themselves proof against those armies which subdued the proudest of their neighbours ; and, to this day, scarcely a native from the Indus to the Burain pooter is there who does not subscribe to their creed, while the vilest reptile from the veriest dregs of the Bhurtpore popula tion fancies himself a partner in the glory, and, conscious of superiority, curls his mustachios with self-importance, and a sneer of ineffable contempt in the fact of every Englishman he . - meets; The town is perhaps one of the most extensive and popu lous in llindoostan. •It is said to be eight miles in circumfer ence. The fortifications, although constructed according to the system usually - adopted by natives, possess considerable strength. The people arc active, brave and well armed. A handsome palace stands within the fertress, containing nume rous apartments and a spacious hall of audience, singular from the chaste appearance of its walls and columns, which are formed of a very fine sand stone, and tree from any addition either of paint or white-wash usual in other native buildings. On one side of the town an extensive sheet of water forms an adthirable security ; while on the opposite side. which, if we remember correctly,- appears to be weakest in arti fi c ial de fence, a jungle extends nearly to the counterscarp of the ditch, for'rning no indifferent cover for hostile troops. Wild hogs and game of all descriptions are in a state of preserve even close to the walls. . . Theiiajah's territories are extensive and fertile ; but the boundaries have never been clearly defined. Deeg and Mann., two cities of considerable importance, are within this princi pality. The former became a place of celebrity from the fa mous battle fought under its walls, when llolkar's army was nearly annihilated, although it consisted of 2 4 ba t ta lions of in fantry, a large body of horse, and 160 pieces of ordnance ; and in a strong position, opposed to only 6,000 men under General Frazer. Independent of the many permanent a dvantages which may 'be derived from the controul of a centrical state, powerful both a more favourable season than the present for the display of an example ; nor (had it been left to choice) could a theatre have ,been - found better calculated to call forth attention, or add to effect, than the spot which every native believes consecrated to Indian valour—a sort of Thermopyly for wonderous deeds that have defied the gigantic power which gives laws to the 28,000,000 of people, can confer a diadem, or compel:kings and potentates to kiss the rod.

THE DEAT) ALIVE. • QUEEN-SQUAltr.—Yesterday a gentleman entered the Office, and after . the ordinary business of the morning had been gone through, he addressed the sitting Magistrate,llr. Wil I E, S and requested permission to make affidavit that a youth, named William Despan, aged 10, who - was supposed to be dead, and had been buried, was still alive and enjoying good health. The object the gentleman said he had in view was to get the name erased from the Register of Burials, which the Minister who interred the supposed youth had refused to do without the re quired affidavit. The facts of this extraordinary case are these :—About the be ginning of July last, a fine youth, named William Doman, who was pursuing his studies a t the Rey. Mr. Pollard's esta blishnient at Chelsea, suddenly disappeared from school, and no one Hew on what account, or where he bad gone to, as his parents, who are people of arge property, were in the West Indies; but some of his relations were residing in London, and they were made acquairted with his absence, and every exertion possible was made to trace him out, but day after day elapsed, and not the most distant tidings were heard of him., It was at length concluded, as he was partial to the water, and it being very hot weather, that be had gone to bathe, and was unfortunately drowned. These suspicions became stronger in the minds of his friends, and they had large handbills printed and stuck on the walls contiguous to the Thames, offering a reward for the discovery of the body, and a remuneration to any person who should only find his clothes. Cooper, the officer of this establishment, was also applied to, to assist his distressed relatives in their search,Cooper lost no time in going to work, and made inquiries along the banks of the river, among the watermen and other persons, if such a youth (giving them the description) had been picked up. A day or two after, Cooper was passing along Milbank, when he saw a body floating on the surface of the water; he first ascertained, for a (certainty, that it was hu man, and then he gave information to some watermen, who put off towards it, and brought it ashore, when it turned out to be a youth,, quite naked, and from its appearance it exact ly correspondd with the youth that was missing, and for whom he and his friends had been so long on the look-out. Cooper instantly had it conveyed to the Spread Eagle public house, when it was placed in a shell, and he lost no time in communicating with the supposed deceased's relatives, who were ;overjoyed at recovering the body, and all repaired to the Spread Eagle, to see if it really was their kinsman, and one and all believed that it was the body of William Doman, the :Ms . - sing youth. A Coroner's Jury were summoned, and the friends of the presumed deceased attended ; and to strengthen them in their opinion that the body really was "the one sup posed to be,. they brought with them one of the shoes beloriging to William Doman which they tried pn the deceased, and it fitted exactly. No 7 deubt rested in the minds of the friends bat that he was the person supposed to be, and they all went into mourning, and the body was respectably interred in St. George's burial-ground, in the Uxbridge-road. Sonie days elapsed after the funeral; when, to the surprise of all, the supposed deceased returned to school, and on an explanation taking place, he :se counted for his-absence by saying he had been to see souse ac quaintances of his that lived at a distant part of the town. A communication - was* forthwith made to his relations, who were still deploring his death, and their feelings can be more easily conceived than described when they beheld the youth still living, and in excellent health and spirits. At the time of the funeral of the corpse supposed to be William Doman, the name was re gistered amongst the burials, and it was to get it cancelled therefrom that the affidavit to the above facts was made, as the youth supposed to be dead will, at the age of - 21, come into the possession of immense property. The MAO rsTnATE asked the gentleman if he had the affi davit prepared : it was of such a singular nature that he knew of no form. The applicant said he had not, but that he would get one prepared immediately, if the Magistrate would receive it; and. on Mr. NVhite saying he had no objection, the gentleman pre pared one, and he was sworn to the truth of the contents, and left the office, afzer thanking his Worship for his kindness. CAUTION TO BUILDERS. HATTON GARDEN.—J ohn Barns,a jobbing gardener, was brought up by Lloyd the officer, upon the following charge, preferred by a Alin Ribble, of North-street, Tottenham-court road. It appeared from Miss Kibble's statement, as also from the documents which she produced, that she had lately expend ed six hundred pounds in the purchase of ,a piece of land in Ivory Yale, Holloway, for the purpose of letting it on building leases. To her astonishment she was a few days ago informed that the defendant had carried off nearly seven hundred barrows of mould from the premises, for the purpose of raising the sur face of gardens belonging to different gentlemen in - that neigh bourhood, and who of course gave a price at some fixed rate for it. One garden of - considerable size was raised one foot from the mould taken from this ground. A respectable gentleman, who attended on behalf of Miss Ribble, observed to the Magistrate, that if this system was not checked, there could be no security for this species of pro perty.. The defendant pleaded ignorance of being guilty of doing any thing wrong, as he looked on the premises as a kind of waste ground. Since, however, he Was ordered to desist in re moving the earth, he had not trespassed on the premises. As there was a difficulty in precisely substantiating the charge, aas complainant was not very urgent in press etni defendant also fen dan t was discharged, with a severe admonition from the Magistrate ; the worthy Magistrate observing, that he hoped the detection in this case would prevent repetitions of such ruinous depredations. This day' is the anniversary of ST. REMIGIUS, .19.110 was hum at Landen, and at an early age deterinined on a monastic life. After the death of BENtsAnt us, from his exemplary piety and ex traordinary learning, he was chosen Bishop of Itheims• He held the bishopric 74 years, and died at 96 years of age, anno domini 535. Over the entrance door of the state prison in the capital of Chile is inscribed; in Spanish, " Hate the offence, but pity the offender." Th ExAoantriAtty Binll.—A fine falcon, of the blue-gi e y kind, better known as Facts Ciarcus, or the blue falcon of Canada, was lately caught at Zwolle, in Holland. This beautiful and ex traordinary bird inhabits Africa, and Europe, as well as America. The velocity of its flight en ables it, within the space of twelve hours, to f. 19 across a quarter of the globe. The distance between the ends of the pinions of this wonder ful bird, when flying, is upwards of one hundred Dutch inches, whereas the mere weight of its body •is only about EIGHT O U NCES.—( landsche - Staats Courant.)

QUIS DICEItE F.ALSUJI AUDEAT LONDON. SATURDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 1. 1825. We ,understand an Express has arrived from Paris, bringing accounts that the French Five per cents. on Wednesday were at t,i9. 45., and the Three per cents. 71. 80.—Extracts from the French Papers of Wednesday will be found in another column. They have some news from Greece, and amongst it a letter of the Secretary of State (MATitoconnATo), charging the Austrian Government $‘ ith direct breaches of its professed neutrality. The affairs of Greece are now beginning to form the subject of the anxious deliberations of almost all the European Cabinets. Tha position of the country, and its connexion with the Sun- LIME Poa•ri:, must naturally attract to it the at tention of the higher Powers, for a struggle of such a nature as that of Greece and Turkey, must in its consequencesinvolve the interests and welfare of almost every other nation of Europe. They are all in terested,some hoping for extended dominion, in case Of its final separation from the PouTr., and some desirOus to prevent its dismemberment in order to preserve what has. been long called the balance of power in Europe. To harmonize these conflicting interests is the object in view, and how difficult and how dangerous is the at tempt may be readily imagined. Whatever Portion of success may have attend ed the combatants in this struggle, and however victorious hereafter the Turkish arms may be, we think it may be taken for granted, that GreeCe Ktan never again return under the dominion of the Sultan.) The idea of submission is connected with recollections of a bitter nature, and this alone appears to us a sufficient bar to any hope of reconciliation between them. In the mean time the Mediterranean , and the Ar chipelago in particular, are swarming with pirates, confusion reigns triumphant, and the leading men of Greece are divided by jealousies and animosities which only tend' to weaken and distract the Government, and thereby to protract the contest, not to defeat it. The ships of all countries are alike subject to the plunder of these pirates, and no flag appears to be respected. Thus, then, the interference of another State appears necessary, either as a mediating power principle of.separation, or as an h o stil e on the princi force to aid and assist the Greeks, which ever shall be deemed most requisite to effect, and afterwards, to secure the tranquillity of the Islands aud Continent of Greece. Circumstances (we may be allowed to add, unhappily) point to England as the State best fitted to ob tain this object. Her powerful marine, and her influence in the lonian Islands, her in sular position and consequent freedom from the influence of Continent a l p o li t i cs , an d above g all, her ob v i ous and most wise policy being thethe support of the Ottoman power, all conspire to throw this ta,k upon her hands as the Government best able to afford efficient protection to the new State, and at the same time as likely to give the least cause to excite the fears or jealousies of any other Power. It is now rumoured that a Proclamation will be IV IP .o Issued to prevent Lord CocIIRANE P t the e% the assistance an of the Greeks ; d ' ar hat ' Gr eece portation of arms or mun i t i on s °f W or Turkey will be prohibited.
