CALCUTTA GOVERNMENT CAZI7I7E, APRIL 10.

Accounts from the batiks of the Nerbmida of
the middle of lot:mit, stale, • that the intrepid
Capte.iu C4olfield had again dktingoislied ltin►stit
in a successful attack on the Pindarees. flaying
received accurate information of the encampment
of the !elide', Shaikh Doleah, at the head of a
large body of horse, he marched. with alacrity to
the spot, in command ,of two companies. of the
10th, and 4 squadron of cavalry, and came upon
them near liendia, without being perceived till he
was in the midst of them. They. immediately
rushed into the Net litidda, in the hopes of fOrd-
ipt; that river, but in the
.attempt a very com,ider-
able tiii;unervere cut to nieces, or drowned, and
the Chief is supposed to be among those who fell
trn the occasion. •

"J'he.papers.of the week advert to the recent
successful operations ,(f Ma:jor Mason on ,the
frontier of °tde, in subduing a refractory te-
mindar and his followers of the Raj-boomer cast,
lie. was a subject of the Nuwab-vizier. Major
'Mason stormed. and took his fort, and those of
the garrison who survived, the conflict uvere taken
.prisoners. _Several other fortified places•bad fallen
before the saruegallant force.

, The iypoor Uklibars mention a eireitm'stance
ehich ybe considered 'an 'noire triOvelty in the
modern history of lurfian warfate, and as bring-
ing
,to fight a stamO of character, and a peculia-
rity of conduct, hitherto 'wholly nitkisOwn to the
painters of. Asiatic manners. For unntstubered.
ages past, the fair daft es of the Bast have been
condemned to waste their lives in a species of
gloomy and unsocial solitude, cut off !rota all in-
tetconrse with the world, and taught to measure •
-all-their joys by :he extent of their threshold.
Hence ttie epiihet of purdu-riusheen, or sitter be-
hind the curtain, commonly used as the appelli•
rive of a virtuous woman, as contrasttd with that
of pi(rdu..dar, or curtain render, applied to one of
•nisiolute cha'racter. I)ite, however, and hopeless
as this universal thraldom appeared to he, the
Lady of Celebrated John Baptiste has been
hold enough to emancipate herstif froth it, and to
set ,an eatriple, by the imitatiun of which those
of her own .30C way assione all Ole hardier
virtues of their Lords and Masters. We are
told that this stately virago has lately put
herself. at the bead of her husband's army, laid
siege to and male herself master of the fort of
Shcopooe, spite .of a viecrous defence, and the
use of mines by the..garrison.

We :Ire happy to learn that tile insnro.tiolg'
Cuttack had abandoned their intention Of pro•
reeding to Jaggernant Co secure the person of the
Rajah ; for although no apprehension could be
enzertained regardin4 the issue of their operations,
a yencontre niight have been the occasion of much
bloodshed. "- They had, however, been surprisingly
active in obstructing the passes, by a sort of stock-
ade, in the tvood, dand hilly part of the district
in which (hill -had assembled, and the detach-
ments that had been sent out to cheek their

tress found greAt, difficulty in their attempts to
reach them, and were obliged to return for want
of supplies ; those that tvere sent after them, to-
gether with the tents and baggage, having been
cut off byr he enemy. It was in au effort to forage
with a small party for the detachment tinder
Lieut. Prideanx, in a village not stip'posed to be in
the occupation of the insurgents, that Lieut. Faris
met with his lamented fate. He and a Soubadar,
at the head Of about 50 Men, are said to have been
shot by some rebels who were skulking behind a.
wolf. The body of the unfortunate Officer was
instantly placed in his palankeen ; but while- the
bearers were carrying it off • one of them was
killed, and The renulinder, unable to-proceed, fled
from the scene of actiOn. The village where 'this
unhappy circumstance occurred is called Gonglia-
rah, and is about a kos front -Khoordah. As the
party retreaded from the jungle they.fired two vol-
lies upon the rioters, by which several were killed
and wounded.
Lient.Prideaux, having no grain, retired upon
i'iply, and arrived there in the night, after light-
ing the whole day, and haying in.his progress
forced eleven stockades. The Magistrate, anxi-
ons'to inquire into the cause of the revolt, had
taken .an escort of 64 men ; but hearing that
Lieut. Prideaux, had gone to triply, Lieut. Travis
the officer in' command, forced his way to Dal-
cattee, killing and wounding several of the in-
surgents, who attemptetl to obstruct his march..
Ott bearing of the retreat of 'Lieut. Prideaux,
Colonel O'Halloran sent the lst battalion .of
tbt-
18th Regiment, with guns, under Captain Le
Fevre, who proceeded to Unirooah, Where he re-
in-lined two clays; but unable to procure the ne-
cessary supplies,' Ire was obliged to return,.
encamped on the noes: batik of th.e river Cot.
joralt. Our letters of the 10th state, that WWI
great exertion and activity :Jain sufficient for fif-
teen days, and three litintbed bullOCks, had beer
collected, and .that Captain Le Fevre advancet
on Khoordah that day.. Jughtuldoo appears' tt
retain the equmpind of the rebel , and

tions to plunder the louses of the Daroglias and

greater part of Piplv, and then srtiteii tvithin the
