July 17, 1801.

" We proceeded to the Palace of Chepauk at
three o'clock in the afternoon, according to the ap-
pointment of the preceding

4' NE JEEB KHAN and TU.Cr-.I,A,ILLY KHAN
ceeded to inform us that the, 'slloie-family, and the
Ministers of the late Nabob, had Geen assembled for
the purpose of deliberating on the proposition sta red
by us on the ptecedingday; and that the result of their
deliberation was a convidion in their own minds,
that, notwithstanding the decided terms in which
Our proptisition was communicated to them, the
British Government would still be disposed to accept
a modification of the required for its security
in the Carnatic. They accordingly produced a con-
tra Projet, which they desired might be submitted
to your Lordship's consideration: A translation of
that Paper is annexed to the Report of this day's
conference.

" We informed the Khans that we possessed ;lilt
authority from your Lordship, and from the Go-
vernor General, for rejeiting, on the part of the
British Government, any proposal inconsistent with
the extent of the Security already required, and that
our proposition for vesting exclusively in the hands
of the. Company, the entire Administration of the
Civil and Military Government of the Carnatic,
contained the basis on which alone the proposed ar-
rangement could be founded.. We reminded the
Khans of the importance which :hey had, at an
earlier stage of the conferences, attached to the ex-
tent of this proposition, and of their considering
their authority insufficient to decide so momentous
a question. We warned them that the interpreta--
tion they were about to give to the Will of OMDUT
UL OMRAH, involved them in a heavy responsibi-
lity to his reputed son,tvhich the terms of the Will
itself did not justify ; and we stated for their con-
sideration, that whatever. might be the result of
these conferences, the efriiiib be produced on their
own interests, could bear no comparison to the ef-
feit to be produced on'ilib'seOf AiLY HUSSE
" The Khans rePliedr;:.that the subjeft of the
evidence discovered at Seringapatam, had been agi-
tated in the
.Purbar for more than twelve- months ;
that measures had. been taken for justifying the
conduit of OMDUT in OMRAH, which they asserted
to be innocent of any treacherous intention towards
the British Government ; that our propositions,
containing the fundamental basis of an amicable ar-
rangement, had been fully discussed and debate.d;
that they (the Khans) had fully coniidered the na-
ture of the authority and of the responsibility which
the Will of OMDUT UL OMRAH devolved on ;item ;
that they were prepared to give. a decided answer
on the proposition, and chat the Paper delivered to
us, contained, finally and unequivocally, the only
terms on which they could accede to our arrange-
ment of the affairs of the Carnatic, by Negotiation.

" Our endeavours to accomplish an amicable ad-
justment being thus "defeated in hmint, by the
formal rejeetion of your Lordship's fundamental
propositions, we should have felt ourselves justified
in bringing the negotiation to an immediate conclu-
sion ; but knowing the earnest desire of your Lord_
ship, and of the Governor General, to obtain the
security required for the rights and interests of the.
British Government in the Carnatic, by an amicable
negotiation, and considering•the proposal of the
Khans to be so extravagant, a 6 to be undeserving of
serious attention, we judged it to be our duty not.
to exclude the reputed son of OMOUT UL OMRAH
from an opportunity of declaring his genuine senti.„
ments upon a point of so much -interest to himself,
and of relieving himself from the effeAs of the infa-
tuated or treacherous Counsels of his appointed ad.
visers. We therefore informed the Khans, that in
'l.
`a question whichappeate ,to relate exclusively to
the interests of the IC4ibOti-OrOtr Omami's -
re-
puteds son, we were, cicsirotti,rof receiving from him-
self.a declaration; which would determine his future
situation, either as the acknowledged NA.11013 of the
CARNATIC, or as a mere Dependant on the bounty
of the Company. • The extreme anxiety which the
Khans discovered in attempting to evade this de-
mand, confirmed in our judgment the expediency
and necessity of persisting in it.
" It would be tedious to detain your Lordship
with a repetition of the various subterfuges urged by
the Khans to avoid a compliance with this
.request ;
all founded on his Youth, his insufficiency „to CCM-
duEt a conference, the fears of his mother, 'and the
recency of his father's death. It was not without a
very long and .tedious conversation, that we .ob-
tained from the Khans the apiointment of a time for
our receiving, from the reputed Son of Omour
ONTRAti, his own determinatioa on the proposition
communicated to the two Khans. The. interview
was at lengthfixed for the next day."
(To be coniinued.)

List Sunday se'nnight, as three children, one of
which is a girl about, nine years of age, and the,
other her brother and another_ boy, were walking
by the New River, near the Sluice House, they
were met by a man who decoyed them across the
fields to Hurnsey Wood, where, under pretence of
gathering nuts, he separated the boys from the
girl, and took the opportunity to use her in a very
brutal manner ; he afterwards gave the chiidren
some plumbs, and requested them to meet him
again on Sunday .• moping, at the Great White
-Pond, near the Whit'e:.OandoLit House) Islington.
During the Week the, mother,dic,covering the out-
rage her daughter. , had sustained, acqnainted her
husband with the circumstance, who, in order to
de,tea the perpetrator of it, desired the children to
go on Sunday morning to White Conduit House ;
when they came near the spot the man appeared,
and taking the girl in his arms, he walked across
the fields towards CopenharYen House. The father
of the girl then advanced, and took him into cus-
tody. .
