ARRIVAL OF TROOPS FROM THE

EAST AND WEST INDIES.

CHATHAM, SEPT. 13.—The following detachments of
regiments serving in India have arrived at the invalid depot,
Casemate-barracks, at Brompton. They consist of 104 men,
including seven sergeants of the 78th Highlanders, with ten
women and eight children, and twenty-nine men, including
five sergeants, of the 17th Regiment of Foot, with
four women and sixteen children, under the command of
Major R. J. P. Vassal), of the 78th and Assistant-Surgeon
John Innes, of the same corps. The ;hove troops embarked at
Bombay, on board the ship Columbus, of 500 tons burden, Cap-
tain Short, on the 13th May last; and during their passage,
lasting 130 days, arriving off Gravesend on Sunday the 21st
inst., the troops lost by death nine men of the 78th, and eight
men of the 17th, also three children, and Mrs. Moore, wife of
Lieutenant Moore, of the 28th Foot. The whole of the men
of the 78th are completely worn out by the fatigue and the
sickness they have endured in India. Their account of the
maladies in their regiment—of the hundreds that died—is
horrible. The men of the 17th that have arrived are all
sick, and were so at the time they embarked. The ship
brought home Major Minto and lady, Lieutenant Whitehall
and lady, of the 2d Bombay European regiment, and Lieut.
Moore, of the 28th. A private of the 10th Light Dragoons
was brought home, he having been discharged with igno-
miny. The troops will undergo medical inspection at Fort
Pitt, previous to their discharge.
The following detachments also arrived at the invalid
depot from Gravesend, where they disembarked from the
ship Princess Royal, Capt. Stephenson, from the West In-
dies. They consisted of two sergeants, and seventeen men,
five women, and eleven children, of the 71st Highland Light
Infantry ; two sergeants, six privates, two women, and one
child, of the Ist Royals ; six privates, two women, five
children, of the 7th Royal Fusiliers, and three corporals,
six privates of the 23d Royal Welsh Fusiliers ; 85th, one
corporal and thirteen privates ; one sergeant and one pri-
vate, with two women and two children, of the 2d
West India Regiment ; and two privates of the 3d West
India Regiment. The above embarked at Barbadoes on the
4th of August last, under command of Lieutenant Conway F.
C. Seymour, 85th Regiment. Dr. Hardy, and Dr. Hugh Bone,
Inspector-General of Hospitals, came home with the vessel,
the Inspector-General having been relieved by Dr. Davies.
The men of the 23d, with the exception of one, are all so bad
that they are obliged to be in the hospital. The following
deaths occurred on board I—one man and one child, 71st ;
two men, 7th Fusiliers ; and two men, 85th.

EAST INDIA HOUSE.
(Continued from our Afternoon Edition of yesterday.)
THE RAJA OF SATTARA.

Mr. GEORGE THOMPSON then, in a speech of considerable length,
moved for a Select Committee to inquire into the conduct of Lieu-
tenant-Colonel Ovens during the period that he filled the office of
Resident IA the Court of Sattara.
The motion was seconded by Mr. PETER GORDON.
The CHAIRMAN said that Colonel Oven's conduct had been investi
gated by the Government of Bombay, and that Government, as well
as the Committee at home, had expressed themselves satisfied that
he had acted throughout like an honourable man and a faithful ser-
vant of the Company. He would move as an amendment that the
motion be negatived.
Mr. Sergeant GAZELEE supported the motion.
Mr. GEORGE THOMPSON affirmed, in the presence of the members
of the public press, that no investigation had ever been made into
the charges brought by him against Colonel Ovens, and it was an in-
sult to the Proprietary to refuse fall inquiry into the subject. The
Court of Directors need not expect to get rid of the question, for he
would bring it forward at every quarterly meeting.
The motion was negatived by a great majority.
Mr. THOMPSON then gave notice that he should propose that coun
sel's opinion be taken as to whether the dethronement of the Raja
was a legal or illeal at, and whether it was not a direct violation
of the 33rd George lIIc., cap 52.
The Hox. PROPRIETOR also gave notice that he should, at the next
General Court, prefer certain charges against Lieutenant-Colonel
Ovens.
The Court then adjourned.
