dispatch hay been received at the Rost India
House from the Governor in Council at Smithey.
dated 19th May. tale. enelosiog a repairs from Br.-
gadier•General Thomas Munro to the Honourable
Mountstuart Elphinstoue, of which the following is
a copy :
camp before Stro!spore (I), May 11, ISIS.
Brad-Quarter., Field Division.
To the Dos. Moustsloart Elphiasione, Commissioner.
St a—Ols the 9th instant I had the honour to to-
port to you the arrival of the division under my
command before this place, and that Gunput Row
Paunsee had returned here from the south of the
Beema River the day before, and was encamped
under the guns of the fort, in a strung position,
with Bs* Itow's guns and infantry.
Yesterday morurtig, at day-break, I carried the
outward pettah by escalade. and made a lodgement
in the inner pelts's (close up to the fort), where the
Arabs contiuued to defend the houses on that side
of the fort, assisted by the garrison. fur a consider-
able time. It is now iu our postessiou, lam happy
to inform you.
Just es we got possession yesterday of the out-
ward WWI, thrown Row led a considerable body
of hie infantry. with a few hundred horse, round
by the caster's side of the fort. and opened live
guns upon our reserve. Finding our battery slid
not silence these guns, I ordered them to be
charged, and carried three of them ; the other two
having been unfortunately withdrawn just then
tinder the fire of the fort. Gunput Row was
wounded, and Victul Pout Tattiah killed. besides
several others of less note, at their guns and in their
retreat.

Having understood that the enemy were going
off about four o'clock p. so. from their camp, 1
ordered out our small body of cavalry, under Bri-
gadier• General Primler, to pursue them. Foe.
Innately Dhooly Khan came into camp just before
from Tooljspoor (9), with three hundred horse,
after a long march. and joined in the pursuit.
I have great satisfaction in &alienating ton that
the Brigadier-General was fortunate enough to
overtake them about seven miles from camp, and
he pursued them five miles to the banks of the
Beene (3) river, and only gave over a. the night
closed to, leaving between seven and eight hundred
killed sad wounded on the field. and amour* the
focuser. I believe, Major de Pinto: his party, and
the Arabs under Dyaub. who did not part with
their arms, suffered most. The enemy were about
five thousand infantry, and six or seven hundred
horse: the' latter all escaped, haying had so great
an advantage in startiog ; those of the infautry who
got off threw away their arms: so I hope 1 may
conghtiolste you upon the complete defeat and dm-
person of Bajee Eow's infantry. and as his guns
were taken into the fort, I expect we shall soon
have the remainder of them also. The enemy het
all their baggage. camels. &C.
Onr loss yesterday. I fear. has been severe ; as
yet I have not received the returns of the killed and
wounded.

I shall do myself the honour to send you a de.
