/SUM.

&Mitt*, AO6 . la I t.—Thil most fortitidable
enemy to the -British interests on- the .continent of
India, is Ameer Khan. He, is susneaed of an in-
tention of establishing a Mussulman Dynasty on the
ruins of the llajepoot States, an intention which he
will, probably', at no distant. period execute.:. Like,
most founders of dynasties, hia,origin is low, and
he owes his eleVation to hiS own valour and military
talents. He is of an Afghan Rohelld Tribe, and was
compelled by indigence to quit his native country,
and enter successfully Into the service of Dargien
Sal Girascea ; the Bhopalmari, Weezer Mohammed
.K 11.11) ; and of 'Bala Rao.. In the war between
Scindea and Holkar, he distinguished himself in
the service of the latter, and contributed, by his
undaunted valour, 'to gain' the battle of Ongein,
:after Holkar," in despair, had prepared for fight :
fCr this service he had conferred on him the title of
Nawaub, with the command of 20,000 horse, and
four brigades of toot : from this period he has em-
ployed himself in obtaining partizans, and eonsoP-
dating ,his power, While ins patron bia sunk into
insignificance. The Calcutta Journals state, that at
the date of the last advices, he was at Khoogal '
Gush, parcelling out the Jeypore country to, his prin-
cipal Chiefs, five of whom ibe had created Nawaubs.".
•The tribute of this
,country is said to have been
agreed upon, and, not withstanding the disapproba-
tion of the Bhae, bonds for the amount have been
delivered into his hands. Scindea's authority was
reduced to the lowest state ;. and he was apparently
afraid of quitting the neighbourhood' of Narwar, lest
some of Ameer Klian'sk partizans should seize him ;-
and Holkar has long been in a state of. perfect im-
becility.- Since the Government of the British has
been established i the conquered and ceded coun-
tries, the whole of the military and many of the
civil servants, employed under the former Govet n-
meat in Oade, Robelcund, the-Doab, 'Agra, and
Delhi, have gone over to Atneer Khan, whom they
look up. so as the only chief who can afford them
the means of subsistence. They amount to about
90,000, of whom one-third is generally with: him,
another at their homes, and the remainder constant-
ly passing and repassing to his camp, which they
supply with all necessary articles. He and his
principal chiefs anxiously look towards Lucknor and
Benares, the plunder of which one day they hope
to share among them. His camp .has been removed 1
from, Chabsou to Lawor.

•
A small vessel, the property of Chinese, has been
condemned at Calcutta, for violating the British
Orders in Council, by trading, two years •ago, to
the Dutch settlement of Sourabayg, under the co-
lours of a native Prince. The Iludge,rtcommended
a petition to the King in Council, as the -Chinese
had probably never heard of these Ord,trs.

The American ship North Star, Captain Levi
Peterson, from St. Mary's (North America), laden
with timber for Sheerness dock-yard, has been
brought into Portsmouth by the Sandwich, Lieut.
Drake. She was captured near the Edystone, on
the 13th instant, by the Petit Jean, French priva-
teer, and recaptured by the, Sandwich on the 15th,
close. into Cherburgh. The privateer :belongs to
Dieppe; sailed last from Roscoff, on the nth, arid
had made no other capture. The Captain, his,son,
and Chief Mate, were taken on board the priva-'
leer, and carried into France. The Petit , Jean is
only 48 tons burthen, had no guns, bat 54 men,
armed with musketry. The Sandwich saw her
entering Cherburgh..
,On Wednesday a Court Martial was' held at
Pottswouth, on Capt, S. C. Rowley, and the Of-
ficers and ship's company, of the Laurel, lately lost
on the Guavaas Rock, in Quiberon Bay ;" when it
appearing that theloss of the ship was solely to be
attributed to the haziness of the weather and the
rapidity of the current, and that every exertion was
made to save the ship and stores, but Without effeCi,
captain R..his Officers, and ship's company, were
acquitted.
The artisans and manufaalurers who have emi-
grated to America from Lancashire • and the West
Riding of Yorkshire, in the hopes of bettering their
fortunes, seem to have made but' -a sorry exchange
of country. Several letters have lately been pub-
lished by the Churchwardens of Manchester, writ-
ten by emigrants to their wives, &c. at Manches-
ter, who are now chargeable on the township,
through their desertion of them ; and which con'-
tain every thing but encouragement to others to
follow them across the Atlantic. A weaver writes
from Norfolk County, that, a labourer i 4 better
sitsfated in America than a weaver, who, if he
gets the yarn, 'must make cloth of it himself as'
winding, warping, and sizing, and going through
the whole operation. Had he known asenuch be-
fore.hand, he would never have gone to such a mi-
serable country. He might work for three months,
at 12 dollars a month, and yet.see no money. A
single man, he says, was Worse offtlian at iVlanchea-
ter. No oatmeal wasee be had : but "only Indian
corn and potatoes.- This was in New England ;
and he understood that' Rhode Island was worse.—
Another artisan writes frosu Pittsburgh, that there
was no fattory worth mentioning at Philadelphia,
and no machinery making at Pittsburgh ;. and that
he was forced to work in a whitesmith's shop. He
expresses his intention to return, unless times
changed. Other letters arc to the same purport.
Mr. James, of Villiers-street, Strand; 'was at-
tacked on Thursday morning, in Fleet-street, in the.
most audacious' manner, by three• ruffians, who
attempted to take from the breast pocket of his coat'
a pocket book, containing Bank notes to the.
amount of-1501.---:Mr. J. it.appeared, had been into
the City. to receive a -considerable sum, and in his
way back to the west end of the town had occasion
to make several purchases, and he supposed the pri-
soners observed the property in his possession, by
locking through some of the shop windows. 'At
the utowent he was attacked, he srized one 'of the
fellows, 'bit was immediately forced to quit his
hold, from a blow he received in the mouth ; after
which the villains ran off., kle instantly followed
them down Water-lane ; but, although assisted in
the pursuit of his assailants, the. ruffians escaped,
into one of the houses in that vicinity. One of
them was dressed in a blue cloth frock coat, aid
the other two had the appearance of Giitlernen's
grOom.

Martin.

A Court-Martial will commence on Welnesdair
'next, at Portmouth, on board. the Glarliattr,
rock
Captain HATiay,..late of his Majesty's ship Seine.
upon a charge of disobedience of orders, in not af-
fording protection to the trade in the Gt.]lph. of Sr.,
Lawrence, bound to England. There has-been no
similar charge preferred against any Off cer sine 3
the case of the late Captain Norman, in the year
.1795. . The present inquiry, we understand, arove
out of a representation made to the Admiralty by the
Merchants and Underwriters at Lloyd's; and they
have direaed their Law Agent to attend the Couf,-;
on their part..
On Thursday se'nnight, a Court Martial was. a2O,
tetubled at Sheesness, to try Lieutenant C. Cham-
pion, of his Majesty's gun-brig Snipe, on elmrges
exhibited against him for being concerned in
ta.in mercantile transaCtions, as set forth in a let-
ter 'to the Lords Corrimissioners of the Admiralty,
signed ".PHILO•VERITAS ;" and further.stated
Another letter, signed " JAMES JOFlNSON,",fortnerly
.Surgeon's Assistant to the brig. The Curt
.were
of °plaint], that the charge had not been adVanced
against Lieutenant Champion within the period re-
quired by At of
,Parliament, and did therefore re-
lease him `from his arrest.

On 'Monday another Inquiry was made, by or—
of the 4dmiralty, respeCting superannuated
'Warrant Officers,.and. the situations many of them
hold in the prison ,ships in „Portsmouth Harbour,
to ascertain the number. of years they have beep
so
.ernployed, and their capability of tilhng more
aiiive,situatious. It is said,. that the, situations of
Clerks, Midshipmen, and Masters' Mates, have
been filled by superannuated
.otTicers, for the.last
ten years, consequently they could not have J)eert,
very infirm, when superannuated, as the duty of
those 'ship's requires active ,r en. It is to, put•
stop to such practices that the preient Inqutry-is
made.
