Our accounts from Cabul continue to flatter us
with the hope of a favourable change in the fortunes
of the deposed monarch. Were it not indeed that
we think ourselves bound to receive every article of
Asiatic news with a certain allowance for itiventioa
and exaggeration, we should say, that such change
had already been effected.
Soojalt-ul-Moolk, it would appear, after his de-
feat by the troops of Mahmood, had been dissuad-
ed from hi► purpose of seeking refuge among the
Kliyhur hills, by an invitation from Ins suhjects at
Candaliar, who had risen on his behalf, and rescued
that capital from the officer* left in charge by the
usurper. On the 11th ultimo, advice.' were re-
ceived in Mr. Elphiustones camp on the Kauvee.
announcing Soojah's arrival at Casidahar. It was
added, that the army under Futteh Khan, who had
set out from Cabul in the same direction, for the
purpose of rescuing the city from the hands of Sou-
ps's adherents, had been repulsed and defeated iii
the attempt. The distance from Cabul to Canda-
har does not exceed from eight to ten days march.
Khasoran, the soil of Mahmood Shah, had arrived
at Peshour, of which city and district his father
had appointed hint governor. His whole force
however amounted to no more than 300 horse.

According to these accounts. the Persian border.

ed by the troubles of the empire, to take possession
of the city of Herat.
The Gentlemen of the British Embassy reached
the left bank of the Rauvee on the 10th current.—

'ef the country, they hail made very rapid progress.
seldom less than from 12 to 15 miles in each day's
march. During the last five marches. which they
had made front the bank* of the Accoinrs. they had
passed through one continued sea of water, higher
io general than the horses' knees. and frequently
coining over the saddle-flaps.
The Bouvet (or Hydraotte) is described as a
mere rivulet, when compared with the Hydsspes
or Avesines. Its banks are low. suit rather deficient
in trees; but they are clothed with that rich mantle
of verdure. for which the whole face of the Panjab
is so remarkable. The breadth of the Itauvee had
not been accurately ascertained. but appeared to
be about Buo yards. The stream was by tin means
rapid; but was rendered turbid, by the heavy rainy,
which, at that season, swept down the soil of the
adjacent fields.

141 r. Elphinstone's party found only one solitary
boat et the refry. They prevailed however upon
the people, by dint of money and persuasion, to
collect three others by the following day ; sad they
expected, in the course of three day. more, to have
all their equipage and retinue transported to the
apposite shore. From thence the body of the Eon-
bossy would move on by the direct road to thrust-
sin, a distance of from 10 to is Ma. The Envoy
himself. att,nded by a small party. proposed to set
out on the Ilth, on a visit to the city of Lahore.
We have already noticed in gettersl forms an af-
fray which took place betweeu the escort and the
people of the coun!ry, at a par, emir the riser
The name of this pass is Durree-ul-Tu-
wurree. It is formed by the bed of a river, initiated
between steep road rugged mountains. overgrown
with a low jungle ; sod a fall of rain for a few days
is sufficient to render it quite impracticable. As
soon as the line bad advanced to a certain distance
within this pass, and bad reached the boundary of the
territories possessed by two Stilt chieftaius, named
Partook) Sing and Ooturn Snag. several men from
the adjoining villages appeared in a body on a com-
manding eminence to the right, and began to hurl
down large tootles on the people of the Eisilnissy.
Upon obit, Captain Pitman, with a parry of 20 &-
pop. began to ascend one of the adjacent hills,
with the intention of opening a fire on the assail-
ant.. and driving them from their position. No
wooer was this movement perceived by the villa-
gers, than they loaded their niatchloeks, and pro-
ceeded to occupy another einiuente directly oppo-
site to that which Captain Pitman had ascended.
aad the two parties began to fire upon each other
from their respective poets. The Seiks were heard
at the same time to hollow out from the hill. that
they would allow the embassy to pass unmolested,
presided that they would troy them the chout.
hleaniehile, Captain Pitman received a message
from the Darogah, atatiug, that a person had been
dispatched to prevail upon the villager, to desist ;
hot that they refined In do so. until Captain Pit-
man also should stop his fire. tits this, Captain
Pitman ordered his party immediately to descend

however, from one of the matchlocks of the artail-
ante, struck tipou a rock contiguous., the route of
the sepoys to their descent, and, rebounding wnh
considerable force, wounded Caption Pitman in the
meshy part of bit arm. The bell being immediately
exteactrd and the wound dressed. it was not sup-

LON DON,

We have received Paris Papers to the 214, from
which we copied an abstract of a correspondence
continuing an account of military operitionv in
Spans. It is a general view of the state of the va-
rious provinces. unaccompanied with dates and
particulars. The result is, of course, represented
unifortnly in favour of the French; but enough iv
admitted to chew that the picture is • false one.
The Paris Popes' contain little of any interest,
in adJition to the narrative which we have noticed.

Accounts. it is said, have been received by the
Spanish Ambassador here,fria the North of Spain,
which state, that Ciudad Rodrigo bad not busmen-

Spanish force in l albeit hind obliged Marshal Nei'
to send • division of the lissiegiot army, to the
amount of 7,000 men, into that pruvince. This
division, it is added, had reached Astorga ; and
hopes were entertained that, by this diminution of

place soulsl be at least protracted.—lt is also pro-
bable that it might tempt Lord WELIANGTotig to

Tke Chinese Government, it is rtated. had taken
two more English vessels nito their service, to assist
in the chastisement and expulsion of the Ladroces,
who were still formidable. and had committed
every kind of excess m the viciuity of Canton.
The American Government sending a cargo of
tobacco to Tonningen, for the payment of their
creditors, is rather a singular occurrence in modern
days, since there has been such profusion of cir-

0114r4D MIX, OF FASHION

'Dispatches have been received at our Wilco tt-
•Ct.tistwitt.ir, containing an account of Or! opera-
tions of the Grand Army of Fashion, since the cum-
mencerdetit of the present summer campaign. We
'have lade from them the following extracts:—
On Ste 2-..td of J nue, being the day after thi pro.
rogation or Parliament, the Grand Army of Fashiom
began to break up from its cantonments in West-
&tinder. The Sharp-shooters and Rift Corps
marched for the coast, and took their stations at
Brighton, Bognor, Ratosgate, Margate. ice. &c.
—They consisted principally of thtrftenklag Corps,
with some heavy artillery. of large calibre, from
Leadetihall-street and its vicinity, A few light
troops marched at the same time fur Beth. Bristol.
Cheltenham, 3,:e. They were iu general well taunts
ed, and made a showy appearunee. It would be an
endless ht-k to attempt to enumerate the various
skirmishes in which they have beets since ciigiqed,
the campaign having been conducted, in a greet
measure, upon the plan of the present Will in Spain
—a sort of desultory warfare, in which every hero end
heroine in the ranks have been anxious touch the
Spanish. The only general action fought took place
at Oxford. It is called the fallout, barle of the
Installation, and lasted four successive days. The
enemy, on this memorable occasion, made a very
groteslue appearance: they were Ilres.ed in an
old-fashioned style, coils:14111g of eo.obrooi scarlet
gowns, velvet caps, and other embarrassing And
feeble armour. When drawn up in battle array.
they withstood the grape and caimister shot with
firmness, and in many cases with obstinacy; but as
soon as the Light Corps and Slusep-:shouters from
Mary-le-bone came up, they were seized with a
sudden panic, tild a dreadful slaughter cuminenced
among them. In most a ira, the doctors, and all
the civil tribe attached to the army, have been
placed in a state of comparative security, aud sel-
dom considered in danger ; the contrary was the
case on the present occasion. The Bloomsbary
amid Mary -Festinate Ciders and Piiilis's, armed aith
arro,r, laid whole ranks of Do' tors sprawl-
ing at their feet. Otte case was peculiarly lament-
able : it was that of Dr. who was just re-
covering troth a wound in his rear from Chloe,
whelp a random shut from Corinna took him in
front, and pierced him to the heart.
