It would be to us a eubject of congratulation to he able to in-
form our 'reader', that our tool's had been permitted finally to
evacuate the territory of Burma on any thing like honotirable
terms; hot we confos we are among the number of those who
think the late'Treate neitlwr honourable nor advantageous.—We
induced the people of Pepe to,take pal t against their Govern-
ment, or, in other word., hoist the standard of rebellion, and
now leave them to their 'fate. It is soinithinge:likwour conduct
to the Genoese during the late war, and most iteeureilly the Pe-
guets will there the same, it not a worse, bite by trusting tniour
promises.—As to extending our eommeter, nr,eecuriug a better
frontier, it wilt do neither use nor the other. Wu never can have
so strong a frontier ae we had previous to this disastiout. war ; the
difficulty we found in penetrating into the country with our am-
ple means, and the assistance of our flotilla and shipping, which
a native enemy can never pewee, is a proof that our opinion on
this point is well founded,--:With respect to the extsoaion of our
trade, we have for many years enjoyed the benefit of it, and there
was no obstacle to the increase of it to any possible extent of which
it was supiceptible._We have, now uicumbered ourselves with the
eost and responsibility of Proteeting several petty States, who ne-
ver can, by any poseibility, have the means of Affording us any
assistance in the day of need, and who Will be constantly calling
upon our Government to interfere in .their behalf between them
and their former Cilieltain.—lt cannot be expected that the native
troops of the Continent of India will quietly consent to serve in
that pestilential climate, which has already proved so fatal to their
comrades; as to European troops, we suppose they are out of the
question ; then bow is the military occupation to be effected ? We
ought tiret to; establish our character for probity and honour, and
obtain their oonfiderwe before it will be pt udent to put arms in the
halide of the natives of the country to coerce or protect it. —To Short,
the Government of India has brought itself into a serious dilemma,
nut of which it will be difficult for it to be extricated.
There are letters from Minims of the 6th February, at which time
no account had been received of the King of Ave having signed

reached Wm from Rangoon, stated the army to be very badly

The letter, Aso, from Madras stated, that the Government bank
of Calcutta, in 6.metepienee of the assistance it heal been obliged
to afford to Government, had suspended its payments!!! The
fall of l3hurtpoor, and the consequent submission of all the rernte•
tory tribes in that quarter, which we predicted emoe time, age,
eveetd awe follow, the public is already officially Warr*
There was an energy and officerelike conduct in the whole of that
military operation which India for a few years bark Ws been un-
used to, and which hale out an expectation for the better in the
military department under that_yPrcitidatie
