ruilKahad on 11w 15th of August, by order of die
Nizsis Government. _ . _

We err extremely sorry to learn that the choler'
sisorims has lately increased in Calcutta mud n■
neighbourhood, and been attended with fatal er.
frets in several instances. We also !war, that at
Dacca the epidemic has a►sutued a ve►y formidable
appentalter, and carried off a number of endives;
and in the Bombay obituary we observe several
deaths among European* from the same distemper.
We are told, and have tau much reason to believe

the fact, that nimpils of tan of our fel-
listrt.creaturi), have fallen victims to it within the
last eighteesi mouths.
Accounts Irom sluttra state, that Seintbah is on
hip progress to Ltiodralluntl, with a numerous smite,
for the purpose of making his devotions at that ce-
lelnated place of worship. Colonel Firth, it iv ad-
ded, has brew ordered nut Willi a detachment and
brigade of guns, in order to pay him every mark of
respect a bile in the vicinity of Nlottro.
Ills Nliqestv'a 24th dragoohs have left Cawn-
pore for the Presidency, preparatory to their em-
barkation li,r F.tirope.
We are happy to observe that affairs at Ceylon
are soon likely to terminate in the desired tranquil-
lity of the colony. The cause of the rebels is re-
presented as nearly hopeles, and no doubt is en-
tertained of the island ben% again restored to its
former prosperity.

ARMY f\I%•S

[FROM THE ASIATIC MIRROR, OCTOBER 21, 1818]

We are happy in bring able to present to our Readers an
account of a very spirited and brilliant attack made nu a
body of the Insurgents in the ['situp! Valley, by a detach-
ment under the command of Lieutenant Cluilishauks. The
accounts or this affair have liven received from II umeicnnhad,
and state the enemy's force to have been composed of Go-
bends Nail Arabs.

Lieutenant C.'s detachment came upon them on the morn-
ing of the 21st of September ; they were strongly posted in
a glen, under a Chief called and the Entrance of this
glen was crossed by two deep and rapid iiiillahs. The hos-
tile force occupied the banks of these millahs, from whence
they kept up a smart and galling fire; their numbers were
between 5 and 6,0110 men. Our infantry attacked in •
most gallant winner, by making a rapid and most furious
charge, at the same time that the 7th cavalry having made a
detour to the left to get round a skirt of the glen, also fell
upon them. This joint onset they were unable to witiodand,
and they lied immediately, with a loss of 300 killid mid
wounded. . -

At this place it was frond that the enemy Ivol collected
large magazines of ammunition, which were all blown up
by our troops. The victors also got posseami 0000 of a large
quantity of 1111M4 and of plunder, elephants, camel•, &c. It
is hoped that this affair will put an cud to the further oppo-
sition in the Bailout Valley.
