LAHORE, JErLY 21.—" Hera Nund, Vakeel of Sirdar
Shere Singh, Nizam of Peshawur, intimated to the Sir-
kar that the fort of Attock had, from time immemorial,
been subject to the Governor of Peshawur; that on a
late occasion Mousdah Singh had been appointed to the
charge of that fort, in supersession of the former Tlia-
nader; that his master Shere Singh had rendered essen-
tial services to the Sirkar during the period of the rebel-
lion of Prince Peshora Singh; that on a late occasion
his judicious arrangements had restored tranquillity in
the Yoozoofzaie country and secured the approbation of
the country ; and that if the Sirkar were now willing to
acknowledge these facts and reward his services, all he
required was that the fort of Attock should be con-

tinned under his charge, declaring that rather than his
wishes should not be complied with he would resign his
office at Peshawur. Raja Lall Singh was displeased
at this abrupt declaration, and remarked that if
Shore Singh did not wish to remain at Peshawur he
would shortly be recalled, but that for the present
Mousdah Singh should be installed Thanadar of Attock.
Dawee Decal represented that some disputes had arisen
between Futteh Khan, Tawanah, Futteh Khan, Lon,
and Shere Mahomed Khan, in consequence of the terri-
tory of Mutta, Tawanah, in which the two last had al-
ways had a share with the first, having been entirely
made over to Futteh Khan, Tawanah, and that it was
incumbent on the Sirkar to make some arrangement in
this matter, either to take entire charge of the territory,
or divide it equitably,- as otherwise bloodshed would be
the certain consequence of the present disputes. Hear-
ing all this, Raja Lall Singh ordered that a purwannah
should be addressed to Misr Ameerchund, with orders to
take possession of the territory by his own Kardars, and
to send the Kardars of Futteh Khan to Lahore. This
day. Raja Lall Singh, Sirdar Tej Singh, and Dewan
Deena Nath had a long conference regarding the
Jagheer of Sirdar Runjoor Singh, consequent on which
they summoned Khan Singh Majeeteea. On the
conclusion of the interview with the latter, Dewan
Neena Nath was desired to send for Runjoor Singh, and
explain to him in an amicable manner the situation in
which he stood, and propose certain terms for his ac-
ceptance, informing him at the same time that if these
were not agreeable more stringent measures would be
adopted. It is not known what has been the determina-
tion of the Sirdar. The Dufeerees of the cavalry had
been directed to pay up the discharged Suwars to the
day of their dismissal, and to make no deductions what-
soever.

JULY 22.—Raja Lall Singh stated to the people as-
sembled at the Durbar, that he had received a letter from
the battalions of Sirdar Khan Singh, Roussah, declaring
that they would no longer remaie in the service of the
Sirkar, and demanding their discharge and payment of
all the arrears due to them, An urzee arrived at the
same time from General Goordut Singh, remonstrating
against the order by whieh the whole of his artillery had
been made over to General Elahee Bukhsh, representing
that his being thus deprived of his artillery was a great
slur on him, and declaring that if the order were
not rescinded he would resign his command. This
matter had no sooner been heard than Mootee
Ram, Vakeel of Dewan Ajoodheea Purshad, represented
that his master had frequently applied for all the
papers connected with the territory along the new fron-
tier, but that no attention had been paid to his requisi-
tion, and that it was impossible for him to proceed in his
survey unless these documents were furnished. Raja
