TO ROBERT ARBUTHNOT, CHIEF SECRE-
TARY 10 GOVERNMENT, OrUMBC.

tut,
. Having been infOrMed that a large body °lean-
dians had built a redoubt, and taken post at Moo-
hooroogampelle,l determined to march with the lit-
tle force I could culled to drive them away. I had
only With me one Serjeant and t welve 'Men of the
65th Regiment, one Havildar, and twelve Sepoys,
and. a few Lascoryns. We arrived within a mile ,
and a half of the Fort abour one ih the mornb g, and
thought it best not yait for tlay.liglit, brit to ad.
Vance without WC,pasied a piquet of: the
Enemy, which flea at our approach, and then *pro:
ceeded to attack. Not a shot was fired at us. We
were merely challenged b) a Sentry, Who immedi-
atefy afterwards alarnied the candiaus, and they
escaped into the jno;;;Ie. From the best 'information
we could .get from :he NAtives, 'theic number was
about ,600. The Toni Toms brat twice before we
reached the Fort, which made us eilied `Mo're se4
riots resistance, but :c suspett, the inf.otiriatiori they;
had. 'received from their .Piequels had predeterrnin,,:d:
their condiia. This which the Candfan's chore to"
abandon, is a remarkably strong 0n,7 by art and na.
cure. U 4 the south of thiS Fort there,is a complete:ittOare redoubt, :which Might -haVe been defended
against almostany,foce of mere min,ketry : ii is a'Pa_
. raper not meanly constructed, of lakinei and 'earth,
with embraSures or. raiher L.)op I'cahtior con-
clu4e iyithout saying how much I feel obliged to
the Serjeant and 'Men of the 65th Grenadiers, whO
()ply regret there was do fighting., The. Sepoya be.
hayed very well.
I have the Honour to be, Sir,
Your moat obedient and most hiimble Servant,

The Rajah.' of TRAVANCORE, according to 3
letter from BorobaY, .has:cotered into a contract
with our GiiyOrMilentAb•suOply the
,Company with
all the timber growing on his dominions,fit fur .the
purpose of ship.bOilding. It is with satisfaction
we add, that Eitel+ gunship and'the frigate -which
were ordered to be built at Bombay,. are:. in'a state
of ,forwardness. 'They are designed fir His Ma-
jesty's service, and' W ill come to Engl4nd freighted.
We have .particular :satisfaction in stating that
the •IrletVlY acquired influence of the Company in
the Province of Guzzerat, was as just and ho-
noitrable in its negotiation, as it is advantageous
and 'irniciitant in its policy. Thtfeno,tbat had
4,l,g.subsi..ted there'. hay; beeo'.tiaOciullli*; the
legitimate Government has been re.established, and
the different branches of: the,Guccowar•tUtnify., rfor
whoM aMple prOvision has been male,• lierfealy re-
conciled to each other. Distritts of the,yearly re.
venue of two lacks and thirty lhousinit rupees have
been ceded to the company by ANUNCi.ftp*, the
,
reigning Prince, a tribute of gratitUde for the
services they had rendered him ; all the expenses
they had incurred on the Occasion reintburied, and
two thousand of, their native infantry, together
with a company of European artillery, subSidized
at the: stipulated sum uf seven lacks• and eighty
thousand rupees per annum, and for the payment of
which, ample security has bein given.. The Com-
pany have also obtained, and WHch is of infinitely
the greatest consequence ro the British interest, the
port of Rottablaw in the Gulph of
,Cambay, which
at,ooce, secures us against any attempts of an Euro..
pean enemy in that, quarter--=a security long and
anxiously desired, and, as it has in, its vicinity a
navigable river,, is calculated to insure to the. Com.
patty the whole of the very extensive trade carried
on there. The Pro Vince of Guzzerat abounds with
grain and cotton, and its manufadures of cotton'
cloths, commonly called piece goods, are held in
the highest estimation.

A few weeks ago, WILLIAM BAL: ER, a blind
musician in Jedburgh,. was tried before the, Magi-
strates there, for. breaking into an orchard, under
,cover of the night, and stealing fruit. The Ma-
gistrates, upon a proof being adduced, found
guilty, and sentenced him to five weeks confine-
ment in Bridew,ell. On Saturday sennight, BAL.
MSR, and' twa'ather vagrants who were there con-
fined, formed the
.resplution of making their escape.
•'l'o facilitate this en)l they laid hold of the keeper,
knOcked him down, possessed themselves of the
keys, and BALMER and one of the vagrants ac-
tually made their escape.—They have nut yet been
,heatd of.

The Pilchard Fishery on the Coast of Cornwai
has this season been altogether nasuccessful. There
are :not 10,000 Hug+heads in the whole of the
Coiinty.
