CALCUTTA P.IPERS.

CALCVITA, Nov. 10.—Our intelligence llont the
interior of India speaks favourably of the getterkl Iran-
quillity of the country, and the satisfaction of the people '
at living under a Government whose aim, as well as',
whole interest, it fortunately is, to preserve to them the
blessings of abundance, security, and peace. There are
found here and there, however. refraitory brigands, who
draw around themselves a set of desperate adven►urers,
and seek, in resistance to established authorities, and in
plunder of the peaceable and industrious part of the po-
pulation, that gain which neither their virtoe4 nor their
talents would procure for them in a regultir and well-
ordered community.
' The Beitool Valley and the whole of the Distpoie
I country have been principally the scene of these late
ievolts, and we have given the details of the operations
against the revolters there, ak they have occurred front
time to time. The most stubborn and courageous of the
enemies with vi horn bur troops have had to contend,
were Arabs and Goandi, and among the slain the first
have been always the most numerous,as being constantly
found the hottest of the fight.
Lieutenant Cruikshatik has particularly dittinguithed
himself in these contests, and Lieut. Lane, of the 7th
Cavalry, has been to closely engaged as to have bad two
horses shot under hint within the putt two months, be-
sides being wounded himself. By their small detach-
ment, a march of 40 miles %vat made, and two battles
fought within the space of 2.3 hours, and the troops bofe
all with firmness and cheerfulness, though the roads
over which they marched were unusually had, and they
tasted no food till the close of their gallant labours.
These roads in the territory of Nagpore are so bad, that
it it taid only six camels surtit•ed out of 4ti that were
employed fur a very limited period swat the bank of
Nurbildda.

Major Bowen, of the Madras arm 9, has also distin-
uished himself in several gallant actions with these
Goands and Arabs, and particularly in an affair against
Booardaee, where the rising of the stream in some mil-
labs hating out off his etpeeted reinforcements, he
bravely dashed on with only WO infantry, and drove file
times that number out of the town before him, 300 of
whom were afterwards cut up by the cavalry.
Major Wilson has also earned his portion of military
reputation, by the taking of Pawnee, another strong
post, seated on the banks of a river, about t'S milca to
the S. E. of Nogpore. The details of this gallant storm
are such as reflect the highest credit en the courage and
skill of these engaged. The Mogul liaise, who are
attached to Major Wilson's party, behaved also with
great bravery, and evinced, what the conduct of Indian
wolfs has always fll conspicuously sbewu, that good
leaders and brave chieftain's are alums' ~l! that are
wanting to make disciplined soldiers and courageous
men.
The last letters we have from Hossein:ill:id are of the
date of the 10th of October, and they infirm us that
Shaikh Mallon. a celebrated Vmdaree ( 'del, has made
his appearance in the Betrool Valley with a sr..ns of fol-
lowers. and that Appah Sahib himself was about to
make a movetivoit to the eastward.
The Madras troops, adds our correspondent, are tak-
ing fort after foq to the neighbourhood of Nagoore ;
and the Ex-Bajah's resources, he adds, are so eosnpletel)
exhausted, that he may soon lie expected to eff:iit an
escape front his own troops, and thmw himself on the
mercy of the enemy whom he had se: fruitlessly braved.

CALCUTTA, OCT. to.

private letter from this quarierovitich Slain, that though

out against these, hut accuutus of tie success of Ihi it
