CORN EXCHANGE, APRIL 27.

THERE are not many fresh samples of Wheat ar-
rived here to-clay, and better prices for good quality
are obtained ; not much Barley here, but presuming
on better supplies of that, as well as all kind of
Grain, it is not dearer ; Malt steady ; Pease sell bet-
ter ; Pearls at 44.5. per quarter, and good old Beans
are dearer ; Oats are in tolerable plenty, with many
Cargoes of Foreign at hand, they fully support the
quotation.

Extraft of a Letter from an Officer of the 74th
Regiment, dated Pantrely, November 30, by the
overland dispatch:—" We are just arrived at
this place, after a most fatiguing march of more than
24. miles, the principal part of which we have dis.
puled inch by inch. I have frequently been engaged
with the Native Powers, but I never .experienced
so determined an opposition as we yesterday met
with from Beeng Sing, with a body of picked men.
The gtion raged from noon till sun-set, and was
maintained with uncommon slaughter ; during
which, wonders were performed on both sides.—
The Enemy stood their ground in line, with their
guns, at intervals, till we had marched up even
to the very muzzles of them, under a shower of
musquetry. The son of Rangojee Bhosla had two
horses killed under him, and effefted his escape
on a third, after having been severely wounded
by an European Dragoon, with which he was en-
gaged hand to hand. Five of the 'principal Berar
Officers are said to have been killed in attempting
to rescue him from the very perilous situation into
which his temerity had led him. Beeng Sing war•
once unhorsed, and fought for a considerable time
on foot, before his attendants could reinstate him ; he
is, however, supposed to have been mortally wound-
ed. The cool determined gallantry of the remains
of the 74th and 7•Bth Regiments in particular, wil:
never be forgotten ; they followed up their advan-
tage in the most rapid manner, but with an adhe-
rence to order and discipline, perhaps unequalled in
the annals of British warfare in India."

A grand Naval and Military Speaacle, repre-
senting the defeat of the Enemy in a supposed at.
tempt to effea a landing on the Coast, was wit.
nesied at Swansea, on Monday last. The Boats of
the British Fair Cutter, Cleveland Tender, and
Morristown and Endeavozr Armed Brigs, manned
by the men employed on the Impress Service,- the
Crews of the Brigs, and a small Detachment of the
Military, the whole under the direCtion of Captains
New, of the Royal Navy, entered the Harbour
under cover of a heavy fire from the Cutter and
Tender, and attempted to land ; but the Troops
drawn up on shore, consisting of Col. LAsc ELLes's
Corps of Riflemen ; the Western Glamorgan Rifle-
men, commanded by Col. LLEwELL:triv ; the Legien
Infantry, by Major LANDEG, with their field.piece,
under Captain ROBERTS ; and the Cavalry under
Capt. HUGHES, kept up such a spirited and well.
directed fire on the Enemy, that they were speedily
driven out of the Harbour. A second attempt was
made at the hack of the Pier, but with no better
success ; and in a last effort, at the Bithing-house,
they were again repulsed, under sane excellent
charges, by the Legion Cavalry ; and the Enemy
finally retreated, with the British Colours flying
over their own, as a
_signal of compltat defeat.—
. Col. WArtnt, Inspeaing Field. Officer or the Dis-
trit`:l; was then received in form by the w,IR line
on the Sands, who communicated to the Troops the
great pleasure he should feel in apprising the Ge.
neral commanding the Dtstrift, of their meritorious
zeal to render themselves fit for aaual Sery ice ; and
begged the Naval Officers to accept his hest thanks
for their valuable assistance in the businetis of the
day. This noble and interesting scene attratled
an immense concourse of Speaators of Ali ranks;
and the spirit, steadiness, and celerity, displayed
by the Volunteers, entitle them to the highest pa.
negy tic.
