The expectation I rettertatai,l from the fire,
that Jeswunt Row Bhow would surrender, has not
been disappointed. That Chief yesterday came
into mY camp. and gave himself up. evolving that
he did so unconditionally, in the hope that his vo.

demanded from Jou% wit Row Moire, the mo-
ment he arrived in camp, nrilers for the delivery to
the British Government of the forts of Dealghur
and Cuthuliiele. By a letter I have received front
General Dookin, olio is advancing into Mcwar,
the former had surrendered previous to the arrival
of the orders, but that for the evacuation of Cu-
inulnere will by in time, and niav, I hope, prevent
the necessity of oo shark upon that fortress.
The *hole of this part of Mentor has been for
some titer subject to the depredations of Duleel
khan. who, residing at this place. wind' is a
jaghter of the family of Aineer Khan, has for right
years past laid the neighbouring country under
contribution. To this chid', who had on the re-
presentation of Captain Caulfield separated his in-
terests from those of Jeswunt Row Dhow, a few
days before the latter wai attacked (30), 1 sent
messore, with an olfet of strike for him and his
followers; and at the same time plainly informed
him, that if he did nut accept it, hr must disband
all his followers and leave the Country. otherwise
he should hr treated as to freebooter: He first sent
a party of horse, and afterwards came himself into
my camp, and accepted the oiler I made him of
service. Both men and horitel are of An etcellent
description. They will be useful remits td the
Poonah auxiliary horse, and taking theni into pay
has already hail the effect of giving confidence to
the inhabitants of this quarter, who are retdriiing
to villages which, owing to these and other lawless
freebooters (in the employ of Jeswout Row Blum),

Copy of a Letter fmou .11rizadier General Sir Joint Sial-
calm, to Sir Thomoti Hilltop; dated Camp, mar Jawud,
17th February, ISIS.
Sta—l have great oati,faction in inforniing your
Excellency, that Kurreem Khan, the Pindorry
Chief, gave himself up to me on the 15th instant.
I had heard he was in the vicinity, and employed
the agency of Meer 'Luther Ally to bring him
in, making a general promise of pardon, and the
future means of subsistence ; Kurreem Khan states,
that he was compelled to leave Hulkar's camp, on
our declaring that we would not treat with that
Prince while any Pindarries were associated with
them. He came to Jawud, and remained there lie-
hind his Dort's!) on account of illness, having pre-
viously received the protection of Jeswunt Row
I/how. He was in this place when it was attacked
on the 29th ultimo ; he found on that occasion an
asylum in the house of a poor inhabitant, where he
remained till the night of the 30th, when lie effect-
ed his escape to the hills, where he represents him-
self as busing been wandering from village to vil-
lage ever since in hourly alarm of being seized. This
story is in part confirmed by one of his Pert being
much swelled by walking (to I • an unusual exer-
cise), and by his appearance when be came in.
He was et first much alarmed, but his confidence
is restored, and he appears disposed to give every
infortnatiou in his power, both with respect to past
events and to the actual condition and present
places of concealment of the scattered remnants of
his own tribe.

1 trust your Excellency will consider the su►ren.
der of this Chief as important, as it is calculated,
with other events, to mark the character or our
complete triumph over the freebooters of Ma!wall.
