take a hearty and decided part in the war. it mission from
some chiefs residing under the protection of that nation, is now
on its passage from Martaban to this place. The following do-
cument, forwarded to the head-quarters, gives an outline of
their views and sentiments, couched in artful terms, which are
probably intended to excuse their not having declared them-
selves at an earlier-period."
A letter from three Taliens (Siamese Chieftains), to the
English Commander-in-Chief, intimates their arrival with
10,000 men in •Canjaporee, and that they have received infor-
mation of the English being in possession of Martaban, as also
that frequent betties continue to take place between them and
the Burmahs ; should such he the case, end their services be
accepted as allies, they will be happy to advance, and join the
English with 5,000 men, whom they have already dispatched
to Mipkasath (this is close to Martaban.)

poor,
Assam, state, that in the action of the 27th of January,
that 'gallant young officer Lieutenant Brook, Sub-Assistant

serves to be recorded.

The intelligence from India continues to be of
the most favourable nature, and permits as to
hope, that the issue of the war with the Barrilll',4
will be as favourable as creditable to the
arms.—The fort of Rungpoor, iu Assam, has
been reduced, and is now in possession of 116
Company's forces. Lieut.-Colonel RiettAnos -
his dispatch represents this place to be of Nick
Us
e
importance that he considers himself iu en
possession of Assam ; because it secures a i"
to all points from whence any future i"
ruptions may be attempted from the P°t;
ward. Assam itself is a recent conquest :0
the Burmahs, and it is expected the Assa`Pe
will take the opportunity' of throwing off tbs
yoke under which they have groaned, and po,
ils
themselves under the protection of the fo

Government.

The dividing of the English army, and dire if

on different points, is not the most approve) °he

beating in detail that force which, a$ one c°

pears, we are justified in supposing the issueief
this war will add to the extensive te,rrit°l,o
of the East India Company. Such an additle,
is by no means to be coveted, and We
bend the Indian Government is little disP 0,

may be asked, where is the acquisition of t' left
