INDIA.

Accounts were received on Friday from different
parts of India to the 17th March. The following .
intelligence relative to the situation of Java is im-
portant. General Daendels has lately been engaged
in a destructive warfare with the troops of Bantam.
He has subdued them, but with a loss on his pant
that will make him less able to resist the formidable
expedition we have sent against him.

46 MADRAS, MARCH 16.--By' the ship Mary, whicltarrivitl
in the river on Friday last, from Prince of Wale7' Island, dis-
patches for the supreme Government were brought from the
Eastward, under charge of Mr. Scott, of the Penang establish-
ment. By the same conveyance private letters have reached s,
communicating some articles of recent intelligence from Java.
66 By these advices we are informed, that General Darn&ls
had at lerfgth closed an obstinate and destructive war against
the Bantamars, in which the French General had triumphed
over all opposition on the past of the brave, but untutored sin-
diers of Bantam. The different forts,. stockiden, and all the
. defences of the Javanese were stormed, and carried by the
bayonet. This success, however, was dearly purchased ; and
it is stated, that from 1500 to V.OOO of the first troops In tla
service of Daensiels, had been killed in the latter part of the
operations against the Bantamars, who had for some time success-
fnlly opposed every effort to subdue them. The patience of Darn-
dels being exhausted by the repeated defeat of his troops..he
assembled an army of 900 men, including Europeans, and the
Bouggese, who are his favourite native troops. Placing hbn
self at the head of this army, he marched in person against thg
Bantamars, who were joined in this emergency by the Lamm*
men, an enterprising race, inhabiting a. district on the Western
parts of Java. The &fence by the Allies was obstinate and
bloody ; but after various conflicts; discipline and superior Lp•
pointment finally decided the struggle in favour of Daendels.
64 At the date of these accounts the Governor-General Men-
dels bad not returned to Soursbaye from Bantam ; being de.
tamed for some time at the latter place, in the arrangements
consequent to the termination of the late war.
" The expedition projected by Daendels for the recapture of
Amhoyna, had not been laid aside ; though it had neceaaarily
been postponed by the rebellion, as it is termed, of the Banta.
mars. As soon as the General returns to the new capital,;the
preparations for the expulsion of the English from the Moluccas
were, it is said, to be returped.
" The Gallo-Batavian Government of Java have lately passed
a number Of regulations, calculated to extend and improve the
commerce of the island. • . •
"No information had been received in Java of the jran.
nical measures of Buonaparte with respect to the Dttt.
