HAARLEM, DEC. 23.
teProm a Batavia Newspaper of August 6, we find that Lieu-
lant-Govetnor Di Kock was received in the most friendly
!honer on the'3oth July,
,by the Sultan of Jourarte, and that
Ito 'is Highness immediately gave the necessary orders for troops
tnarch,,and to join the Dutch troops in putting an end to the
‘l.°ehles in the territory of Djocjocarta, that in consequence of
t"lose orders, eight divisions had already marched to various
''ints of the territory of Djocjocarta, and that the best hopes
ete entertained of the result of those measures. The latest
teeounts from his Excellency were of the Ist August, where he
4(1 united in his person the chief authority in the residences of
c: _ettraearta and Djocjocarta, and issued a proclamation from the
aceote the first of those places, summoning the rebels to return
to their duty, promising pardon to those who shall repent, and
vere punishment to those who persevere in their rebellion.
(lonel Cochius had supplied the ports of Klattau and Djocjo-
rta, With provisions and troops, and had returned safe to
~ouraearta, after having met and dispersed several bodies of
te rebels. Fort Magelany, in Kudoe, was attacked on the 30th
a 'ltsen, great number of rebels, but they were repulsed by the gar..
united with the National Chiefs. The garrison received
i:(litche following clay a sufficient addition of strength to be able
arcie,el) in check the country to the west of Ngello. Troops and
.11,1"_e_rY had arrived at Samarang from Sourabaya. By a
of pee of the 10th it appears, that by accounts from Souracarta,
agai: 7th, finingsvan were in the: same state; Col. Cochinsurat
It°uK”g with 400 men towards Djocjocarta; the rebel-
band Detfinees Were at the distance of 7 pal from the place, and a
beighb' r"bers was dispersed on thelst with great loss in the
to 350 °llreood of it. The garrison of Magelang was increased
but th men, and the vicinity of that place sufficiently secured,
e district of Minock was still infested by all kinds of Viandsva-
from the territory of the Princes.
