EAST MIMES.

Extract of a Letter from sit Officer of tbe tath Regiment
Modras Native Infantry, to .his Father in:Edinburgh,
ditrd .foulnah, 10th April, isit.
We arrived here from Colonel
,DovvroN's
force (for the purpose of. nterceptlag the Pin-
riarrie6) nearly two months ago, 40 :sour corps
hits been marching and counter-marchingiii chase
of these rascals, who have had moat wonderful
escapes. One party 'has been a good deal marched
by the Mysore horse, but the main body, apiust
which we matched, have evaded all our attempts
to intercept them, and gone dote') the Monts IM-
tisuchrd ; but it is to be hoped Colonel Dove.
Toe will cut theta nil'. Certainly a fatality hai
attended us on every expedition—when we march-
ed about twenty miles to the east ward, we
heard of them having passed to the west, and
after having been buoyed up with the hope,
indeed I may say the certainty, of Coming up-
on them, after a march of thirty miles, we
fonnd they had moved oil some hours before
we arrived, and marched almost in a parallel di-
rection to ourselves, at the distance of a few
miles. • The Him:nil-all that was sent to inform
Colonel DOVE TON was taken by their advanced
party, or the,Coloncl.wotild certainly have fallen
in with them, and our own scouts were sent in
a 'different direction to that we ourselves had
taken ; in short, every thing has been in favour
of these rascals and against tie. time *ince
10,000 of these Pindorries made their way to the
Company's country, and are now, on their return
to Llindostan, with initnense pltimicr of Ively
description."

We can confidently assure our Readers that
no intelligence has been received of any disturb-
ances whatever in Staffordshire, at Brecon, or at
Swansea. In South Wales all was quiet, except
amongst some of the Collieries in Monmouthshire,
where there had been, as late as Tuesday last, no
actual assemblage of any of the workmen, but
only some appearances of such an intentionoshich
there was no doubt the active measures that had
been immediately taken would shortly suppress.—
The Furnaces at and about Merthyr are at work
again, us if nothiq had happened. The accounts
that have been received are dated the 22d inst.—.
We must add to our praise of the vigour, pru-
dence, and determined spirit of the Magistracy,
our warmest approbation of the Several bodies of
Yeomanry Cavalry, who had acted with the ut-
most promptitude, firmness, and moderation.

A Contemporary, aituding to our statement,

says--

" An Evening Paper of yesterdAy has ventured
to contradict our intelligence, communicated in a
letter from Merthyr-Tydvil, relative to the unfor-
tunate disturbances in that quarter. We heartily
wish the Paper in question had been enabled to do
so on good authority."
We are happy to inform the writer that his
hearty wish is fulfilled. We had the Lest authority
for what we stated—and his Correspondent at
Merthyr-Tydril must therefore have been mis-
informed, when he said that lives were lost on the
occasion alluded to—an occasion sufficiently de-
plorable without this aggravation. •

Upon the subject of these disturbances we have
a rentatkable circurnttance to bring to elti pnblia
recollection—the inferences from which we are
literally afraid to draw, for they would bespeak
a system of secret combination and long-standing
conspiracy in this Island, dreadful to contemplate,
as actually existing. But it is impossible to look
at the present rebellious rising in Glamorganshire
and not advert to the fact that, so long ago us
June lost, an account of disturbances in that
County, which did not then break out, was
published in many Newspapers. It might
lead to curious discoveries to ascertain whence
this then false but now applicable information
was obtained, for it can scarcely be doubted
that the explosion of Oetober is the intention of
June. At the former period a letter fron► Brecon,
dated the 30th June, contradicted the rumour and
assured its, that at ti Mel thyr Tidvil (tile very spot
where these lawless proceedings have occurred)
the utmost tranquillity prevailed and was likely to
prevail."

Surely a more direct proof could hardily be af-
forded that the plans of our seditious Demagogues
are not confined to intl.ntimatory speeches, but
extend to actual treason against the peace of the
Century. It will be well to watch their motions
narro%ly.

The late hour. at which we received the Patis
Papers yesterday, induced its to condense their
news, which we now translate a little more at
length, adding, the contents of the Journals- of
Monday, which arrived this morning. Prom the
reason assigned for not trying General GrtoucitY,
it would appear that BooNrAim must resume
his Imperial State before any of his imperial Of-
ficers can be brought to judgment. The incon-
sistency betrayed in many of the trials since the
restoration is of the grossest him!.
The latest publications hare more intelligence
relative to Constantinople than to Paris. 'lle
Turkish Empire seems to have little coherency,
and the compliments of heads sent to the Divan
by 'tartar Couriers do not binder the Chiefs of
many Provinces from pursuing their own courses,
with scarcely the shadow of regard to the will of
the GRANDSEIGNIOI.

One of the Paris Papers has a miseralile calumny
against England. It insinuates that the Spanish
Insurgents hold secret intelligence with Gibraltar.
