C Wallington'S force, itnnietliately pOshefl
J.iggeritat at the head of thousands of in-
suraents. It appears that a great quantity ut
arms had been concealed at I'oree, which were
now distributed to the rabble, who, baying snr-
roaiided Fort Busby and placed piegtiets in every
direction, began to erect a battery with two great
gu.,s. The daring leader, flushed with his suc-

cess, had taken possession of the Collector's.
Cutcherv, and was levying contribution; on the
['T.:rims. Captain Wallington believing it im-
pos,ihle, with his small force, to make any itn-
pressoil On so numerous and formidable a mul-
t•tude, thought it prudent to retire with the trea-
sure under his charge. He marched ofT in the
middle of :he night, luckily got clear of the town
to the sea side, without being observed, and reached
Cuttack on the I Gth. Mr. Becher, Mr. King, and
the other gentleman, bad also arrived in safety.
They were, however, frequently ti:-ed at in their
progress, but fortunately no casualty had occurred.
Two of our Sepoys who undertook !ri go to Pooree
as spies had been betrayed. One was instantly
and the other spiked and thrown into a
bole in the sand,
,supposed to be dead, but he
happily recovered., and succeeded in getting back
to the camp."

Since .writing the afrove, Bengal Papers to the
10 h inst. have come to hand. They contain no-
thing new except the following from Cuttack. By
circumstance we are happy to perceive the
eo,nntnnicationis again open.

Colonel Sir John Malcolm, and Captain Fitz-
el arrived, at Calcutta on the 6th :
" The guns belonging to the detachment from
Dlidnapore arrived on the 26th tilt. and Captain
Wallington with his detachment had joined Capt,
Le Fevre at Jaggernath. The 2d battalion of
the ISth, with a brigade of guns anti a party of
the Body Guard, marched from Cuttack on the
2Sth, nuttier the Command of Major Hamilton,
and crossed the Kajoora river in the morning,
on their way to Pooree. In the mean time it ap-
pears that some insurgents had made a movement
to the northward and east ward of Piply, erecting
in their advance several strong stockades to defend
themselves from the attack of our troops. We
del stand that on the evening of the 2Sth, Major
Hamilton marched from Cuttack with four coin-
ianies of the 2d, battalion of the Mil N. I. and
the party of the Body Guard, for the purpose of
attacking them in their strong hold. The infantry
dashed forward and drove the repels from the
grockade which they had erected on tile road to a
eilluge called Darootang, situated about 9. miles
south-west of Cuttack. The enemy made but a
feeble resistance, and only fired a few matchlocks
and jinjals, bur their arrows unfortunately were
Aimed with some effect. In this rencontre we regret
to observe that Lieut. White, and three sepoys,
vvere wounded by them, the former severely in the
thigh, and time latter slightly. At midnight the
troops entered Darootang, where they remained till
rlay-break, and then leaving the village, set it on
fire. The insurgents having fled %,vitli precipita-
tion, It was impo,s hie to ascertain the number
that had been assembled. In the morning of the
29th it is said that Major Hamilton proceeded in
south-west direction about five kos tort her, and
time detachment returned to Cuttack in the es en-
i'az On the 30:11 the 2d hattAlonn_ I
elude that Major Hatnilt.in moist have arrived at
that place on the 2tl of May. It was iifidersioml
flint Jugbundoo had gone towards Goomsur, hut
l-ie have no distinct accounts of his movement.
" From Jaggernath, the 29th, we hear that
the force under Captain Le Fevre was ready to
penetrate into Khoimrdah, where the peasantry
seem to be awakening from the delusion into
which the arts of Jughundoo had thrown them.
" Major-General Sir G. Martindell arrived at
Midnapore on the 2d. and would probably he at
Cuttack on time sth."
