Saturday an overland dispatch was received at
the India House, which has furnished us with the
subsequent interesting intelligence : ,•
The report that perfect tranquillity .had•beerrre
stored in India is confirmed; Gohud, and a 4 the
other forts which held out, having surrendered un-
conditionally.

the late Tippoo Sultaun have lately petitioned the
British, Government for assistance to enable them to
fulfil marriage coutra&s. •

Some 'very important regulations will soon take
pliiee in the military service in India. Instru6tions
to this effed are sent out by the present Ships:
It is reported that Dowla Rao Scindeah has re- -
cently shewn a disposition fo attack hig old enemy
the Jeypoor Rajah ; but his means are at present
exceedingly inadequate to the • attempt. At the
commencement ,of the last war he had,46o' 'pieces
of artillery attached to his brigade; but at the con-
clusion of hostilities with English these were
reduced to about twenty very indifirent field-pieces!
A body of freebooters from the hills have lately
made a deseent into-the plains, and.carried oil a great
number . of fine horses belonging to the Peishwa,
which,.were valued at 5,000 or 6,000 rupees each.
It is suspeCted that one of the neighbouring. chief_
tains assisted in this expedition„and participated in
the plunder. The troops of the province were called
out to pursue the banditti, but the rainy season.hav-
ing commenced, the torrents from the hills rendered
the roads impassable.

We learn that some fresh disturbances have taken
place on the frontiers 'of Persia, supposed to have
been excited by a Persian Officer formerly employ-
ed by the Bhoonsla, and who, on his return to his
own country, attempted ;some innovations, which
were resisted by the royal party.
The advanced posts frOm the'southward have. re-
crossed the
„Godavery, and ruched their tispeelive
cantonments.

The Nium's frontier, which has long been agi-
tated by civil comm6tions, is restored toperfea.tran-
qnillity. , .. - , .
A detachment of the iSth' Regiment has been
latey stationed in the Vicinity of Goa , .
