THE TIMES CORRESPONDENT.)
MOHAMMERAH, MAY 17.
the 23d Native Infantry, and all the
Is of our force, were embarked, and
Mohammerah was entirely abandoned, Sir James -
Outram and his Staff remaining on shore till every
man, horse, and mule had been safely put on board.
I do not know how these matters are generally
managed, but it appears to me that in this instance
the embarkation of about 5,000 men, 800 horses,
700 mules, besides camp followers, camp equipages,
and materiel, has been effected with surprising 4-
spatch. No preparations to that end were begun
before the 9th inst., when Sir James returns I from
Bushire, and on the 17th scarcely a vestige remained
of our occupation. Much credit is due to Com-
mander Rennie, Acting Commodore of the Indian
Navy, whose unwearied personal exertions are be-
yond all praise. I understand he is to be recom- •
mended for a C. B. and a Viet eria Cross, an I cer-
tainly if any man deserves such distinctions he does,
as well for his valuable services generally through-
out the expedition as for his indomitable bra ery in
having construeted and planted tae mortar-battery
under the Persian forts the night before the attack
upon Mohammerah.
The admirable corresponding arrangements on
shore are all due, un ler Sir James, to Brigadier-
General Lugard, Ceief of the Staff, and it is to be
hoped that his valuable services will not go unre-
warded. I presume it is not generally known, but
we all of the fo ce know it right well, that all the.
credit for the admirable military dispositions taken
at Koeshab after Sir James had b•en disabled was z
due to him, and no one felt this more, or would
more readily have acknowledged it, than the late
General Stalker, second in corumaud on that occa-:
sion. Indeed, not only at Koo,hab, but through-
out this campaign, General Lugard's management
of all the details of his office has called forth the .
actmiration as well of the general cerumandinot as
of the staff and regimental officers generally. °By
his courteous demeanour he has won the esteem
and regard of all, and his coolness and decision on
the battle-field prove that he po4ses,e9 in a high
degree the qualifications of a brave soldier and an
accomplished commander. We trust, indeed, that
no feeling of jealousy will restrain the Court -of
Directors from urging his claims to honorary dis-
tinction most warmly. Such unworthy feelings
would be singular in the history of the Persian
expedition, for it is acknowledged by all the', una-
nimity between the two services has been most per-.
feet throughout this campaign. It could hardly
be otherwise with a chief like Sir Jaynes Ontram;
and a chief of the staff like Brigadier Lugard.
Our occupation of Mohammerah has lasted for
six weeks, and during that time we have been on
the best terms with the resident and surrounnding
Arabs. Not one complaint has been made against
our soldiers or SOpOS, and the natives were ex-
tremely sorry at our departure. The town was
made over on the 15th to Ali Khan, Sheikh Jaber's
nephew, who brought with him a garrison of 120
musketeers to maintain order there and in the sur-
rounding districts. The arrangement made is that
the Arabs (Persian subjects nominally) are to hold
the place, and to carry on the civil administration -
conjointly with any agents the Persians may choose
to depute for that purpose ; but no Persian troops
are to approach the town until the terms of the
treaty are fulfilled. In the meantime our continued
occupation will be maintained by two sloops of war,
the Clive and the Falkland, which will be anchored,
one in the Karoon, and the other in the Shutt-00l
Arab.
The good understanding which has been kept up
throughout with the Perso Arab tribes,—their neu-
trality during the late contest—and the readiness
with which they have furnished our force with
supplies, are mainly due to the tact and exertions
of Captain Kemball, Political Resident at Bagdad,
aided and supported by the Rev. Mr. Badger, Sir
Jas. Outram's Arabic Interpreter. On these two
gentlemen, without the co-operation of any native
agency whatever, devolved tue task of correspond-
ing with the chiefs, receiving their visits, settling
their intestine quarrels, making arrangements
for supplies, and governing them during our
occupation of the country. In addition to
this, o wince to the dearth of interpreters, every de-
partment,'from the Commissariat downwards, was
obliged to refer to them, and the work which thus
devolved on Captain Kemball was immense. Cap-
tain Kemball was present at the attack upon Mo-
hammerah, and accompanied the expedition to
Ahwaz, where his service proved most valuable,
and in any distribution of rewards his name should
stand among the first.
It is much to be regretted that the Court of
Directors do not hold out greater facilities to the
officers of their service to study Arabic. There was
abundant work during the late short campaign for
at least 15 duly qual'fied interpreters, whereas
there was only one in the whole force who could
act in that capacity. No little inconvenience and
great difficulties and delays were consequently ex-
perienced, especially by the Land Transport and
Commissariat Department, whose agents, scattered
over the country, where Arabic is the only language
spoken, were comparatively helpless. In Persian
we were somewhat bettor off ; but, even in this
respect., there did not appear to be an officer pre-
sent with the force who could indite a proper Per-
sian letter without the aid of a native moonsbee.
This state of things, especially during a war, when
it is frequently of the greatest moment to keep COT-
respondence secret, is much to be deprecated ; and
it is accordingly to be hoped that steps will be
taken to secure higher qualifications in our officers
who pass in Persian, and who should be entirely
independent of all native co-operation.
Sir James Outram starts to-day in the Planet for
Bagdad, in order, as we understand, to confer with
the Hon. Mr. Murray respecting a commission to
be despatched to Herat to see that the conditions
of the treaty with regard to the evacuation of that
place by the Persian troops are effectually carried
out. lam happy to state that the General appears
in excellent health and spirits, and continues to
enjoy the devotion and love of the troops under his
command. Never was a chief more beloved by all
ranks, and had the war been protracted they would
have signalized their attachment by many a bold
and dashing affair. As it is, they have behaved
bravely and nobly, and deserve the highest praise
which the country can confer upon them. What
the Queen or the home authorities may do to evince
their appreciation of Sir James Outram's merits
remains to be :een ; but if perfect success has any
claim to national distinction, that distinction, I
trust, will not be withheld from one whose rapid
movements and their attendant victories were
mainly instrumental in obtaining the immediate
accept ance of the treaty, and thereby putting an end
to the Persian war.

BAGDAD, MAY 25.
Sr James Outram and part of his Staff arrived
here in the Planet the day before yesterday, and
landed at the Residency under the salute due to
his rank, which was immediately returned by the
garrison. The highest Turkish military authority,
Khairi Pasha, met him as he disembarked, charged
with the respects and. congratulations of the Go-
verre)r, Resheed Pasha, and to-day Sir James pays
his visit of ceremony at the Serai. Immense
crowds of people thronged the banks of the river to
see the renowned English General.
The Hoe. Mr. Murray and his suite are still
here, waiting the arrival of the Persian official
charged with the apologies stipulated for, and com-

isexpected
to arrive here in a few days. Accounts received
from the Persian capital represent the Shah as hav-
ing been dreadfully excited on receiving the intelli-
gene 3of the capt ure ofMoh amraerah . The treaty had
affl,ing his signature to it, giving special direc-
tionsill
himself for its immediate despatch to Bagdad.
Had the terms b en tenfold more stringent, there is
little doubt but that his Majesty would have ac-
cepted them without scruple, despite the opposing
influence of certain parties at Teheran. However,
I,y insisting upon so little beyond the independence
of Herat and. Affghanistan, the Home Ministry
have displayed their wisdom and prudence ; for, if
we are sincere in our expressed desire to uphold
Persia, and to strengthen it as an independent
monarchy, which is undoubtedly our best policy),
it is obvious that the less we humble her the better
for our future relations with that country.
This war over, it is to be hoped that the time ig
far distant before we shall be called upon to treat
Persia as an enemy. As you observed in one of
andyour
late articles, much will depend upon the tact
bearing of the Minister who shall represent Great
Britain at the Court of the Shah for the next few
years whether we attach Persia to us or throw her
into the arms of Russia. Do the antecedents of the
Hon. Mr. Murray at Teheran hold out any reason-
able hope that he is the man to cement a real and
cordial friendship bet vreetePersia and England ? I
think not ; neither, as far as I am aware,_have we
many men available for so important and delicite an
impression that such positions can only be
appointment. Co uld.the Foreign-office lay aiide for

feeling perfectly convinced that his character would
carry such weight, and his calm, temperate, delibe
rate, and conciliatory depoitment win such general
attachment, that British influence would soon pre-
' dominate in the councils of the Shah.
