(sth:) NIAHOMNIF.DAN CHIEFS.

The settlement with Ameer Khan (the plun-
derer, who, in Lord Wellesley's Government, was
literally bunted nut of Ilindostan by Lord Lake,
escaping by the swiftnesc of his horse ; and who
was, after Lord Wellesley's departure, allowed
to revive his.power) was very essential at the mo-
tut'nt- it was made. It deprived the Si ate of I-lid-
liar of its chief Means of predatory war, while it
deprived the rindarries of HO important Ally, and
disturbed the while of their plans. Ameer Khan,
has hitherto evinced an adherence to his engage-
"nettle., Wiliew is reputable to his character.
(tith.) '['HIS NABOB OF BHOPAL ([-llN000.)

This Chi:f has, hom.the commencement of the
contest, shown a decided attachment to the Bri-
tish cause, that will, it is said, he rewarded in
a manner not only calculated to satisfy him, biit
to er Courage others' to similar exertion.
'There is in the charmer of this young man, and
in the habits of his officers and attachment of his
subjects, piecisely what is required to form an
nsetiifally in a country which we wish to settle,
not by the extenion of our territories, but of our
assistance atilt coun,els.
(7th.) THE RAJAH OF KOTTAH (ZALEnt SING.)

This veteran Chief manifested the same wisdom
in the late war that he had done through life.—
The moment Ire declared hinisclf our ally, he en-
gaged in ottr cause with a ztal and activity that gave
hini a right to all the benefits which it has
been the wise policy of Lord tiastings to confer
upon him .
(sth) RAJAH OF JYPOOR (RAJArocr.)

The dissipated character of this Prince, the
weakness and divisions among his Ministers, anti
the disobedience of his Nobles, have hitherto dis-
_appointed .the hopes that were entertained of an
early conilexion with Jypoor. The abrogation by
Lord Cornwallis
.of the treaty which was con-
cluded with this state in 1804 by Lord Wellesley,
has also proved a great obstacle to the success of
Lord Hastings, who is now negociating an ar-
rangement, calculated to restore this fine country
to its ancient prosperity.
(911JL),JULROOR (RAJAPooT.)
The insanity of the Rajah., the youth, and inex-
perience of his son, the excesses or the armies of
Atheer Khan, Scindiah, and Holkar, have com-
bined to reduce the strength and desolate the pro-
vinces of this great principality ;.but it is 9141
unbroken, and the absence of the causes which
have-reduced it to its present condition will restore
it to prosperity. Our late treaties 'have com-
plettly. emancipated J-oudpoor from all foreign,
enemies. Among the advantages we shall derive
from an alliance with this state is, it will cease to
be a nursery for freebooters.

(icith.) THE RANA OF OODEYPOOR.
This state, thougl•r the first in..ran6, is last in
power, among the Rajpoot Powers ; the actual
possessions'nf its chief do not yield two lacks of
rupees (20,0001 ) per annum, his nominal reve-
nues are very extensive, and he may, by his alli-
ance with us, gradually regain power.

ith.) PETTY RAJPOOT STATES.
•
It may be said of them, that there is a general
disposition to become dependent upon English
Government, which is evinced in too clear a man-
ner to doubt of its sincerity. ThiS feeling arises
out of the oppressions of their late Mahratta.su-
perinis, dill] a practical sense of our moderation
and justice.
(12th.) THE PINDARRIES.

A very general idea was entertained, that this
race of Hindu() Tartars, which was scarcely known
to the British power, and, in fact, did not exist
in any dangerous form in 1805, could not be ex-
tirpated; but it *was evident, that even these
marauders could not ,exist without a twine, or
without powerful support. To expel them from
the territories , which they occupied, to identify
with them all ,vho gave them aid or protection,
was the only mode by which this dreadful and in-
creasing evil, this tremendous scourge, could be
overcome. No measure, was ever more wisely
plantird; more vigorously pursued, nor more snc-
cessfolly accomplished, than the destruction of the
oda, ry or predatory power by Lord Past ings.
There,remainanot in Malivah a spot. that a Pin-
darry can call-his home. These sanguinary
bets have been hunted like wild beasts. /Nam-
bera have been:'killed—all have suffeied.' .Their
families have been made prisoners : those who
adopted their cause have fallen : the Pindarries
arc shunned like a contagion, and even the'vil-
lages ulkieh. they so cruelly ravaged now arm and
attack them ! 'The Chiefs of the bands of Kur-
reem and \Vasil ((he principal marauders) have
surrendered with, their remaining followers, pray-
ing,only for. some. subsistence in small grants of
land; of which our late successes have given 'us
abundance to d4ose of in every-, qaarter..
Cheetoo, the only remaining.pinnderer of im-
portanee, had about 1,000 followers left ; these
were in 4o red'uced and di,pirited a condition, that
it .seems probable he will follow the example of
the other Chiefs; if he does not surrender, he
will be infallibly destroyed. After the late tem-
pest, we cannot at one expect a smooth sea : in
such 'extensive countries .there may be plunderets
for a time in different quarters, but there is an
end of zvlnit was called '' regular Pindariries."
That organized predatory system, which, by the
tibaudonment of Lord ‘Vellesley's atrangements,
had already spread.over great part of India, and_
which threatened,. as it increased, ruin to the Ilri-
list, power and character, has been destroyed in
one campaign, and we have now, unless Lord
Hastings shall be, interrupted like his noble pie.'
decessor., the prospect of a long and permanent
peace.

Greenwich Park, during the last nut unmourder-
went several improvements. Some of the old sud
decoying trees were cut down, and a vast number
of young trees planted various parts of the Park

in their stead. The greatest part of these you►tg
trees, have died timing the late hot summer tor
want of water., and have usaio Ao be replaced.

Bitissius, SEP+. 22—The Duke of Welling-
ton art ived yesterday in this City with his suite,
going to Aix-la-Chapelle.• His Grace put up at
the Hotel ka. Belle Vile, Admiral Sir Graham
Moore, with his family Had suite, have arrived
from Antwerp.--It is asserted that Baron 1-Iton-

Aix-LA-CHAPELLE, SEPT. 20.—Among the no-
rth rolls strangers 's hour. we see art ive here daily,
here'are several men of letters, who are commis-
sinned to give infmanation of all that passes here
to the most celebrated Johrnals 'lnd periodical Pub
lications. Prince Hardenberg it expected here
on the 26th of this month ; he be preceded by
the Minister of State, Baron Altenstein. The
presence of the King of Prussia, and several of
his Ministers, at Aix-la-Chapelle, has appeared to
offer a very favourable opportunity to regulate
certain prints which it has been long attempted to
arrange between Prussia and the Netherlands. In
consequence, Ministers of the latter Power will
go to Aix- la•Chapelle, to treat with those of the
Court of Berlin on those points—it is said that
one of those is the rectification of the froutier3,
or rather the settling some disputed points arisiug
from this rectification. It is probable that there.
will' he some exchanges of tet ritory between Prus-
sia and the Netherlands, but these exchanges will
not be very considerable.
Jr is affirmed positively, that the King and
Queen of Wirtemberg will he here in the strictest
incognito.at the arrival of the Emperor of Russia;
