the "Standard of Allah,"*llich, according'td the ideai

;blattontedans, is the greatest proof 4 opposition.
The PrinsLot- Badjoa has been severely aoundeci and
cAtried off as Boni.
The loss of thernemy• in this affa7r must have been
considerable, as fittnr3oo to 400 men were found dead
on the field. No reports have been received yet as to
our loss, it will, however, not exceed twenty men, and
besides which are two Officers wounded.
On the 30th, the General, with the cavalry, two
pieces of artillery, and two companies of infantry, went
reconnoitring towards Boni, at which place, having
found the country completely deserted, he arrived the
same day about three o'clock, P.m. The place appeared
to have been evacuated by the inhabitants but a very
short time bef le the etvering of our troops. In the
Queen's Palace, fifteen pieces of artillery were found,
besides other small arms, &c. Nothing has yet been
ascertained as far as regards the Queen and Princesses'
it is reported they fled to Snepa, others say to Manipi,
four miles distance from Boni.
It is painful fair Its to say, that however small the
number of kill.d and wounded may be, that of the sick
is on the contrary very considerable. It amounted to
about three hundred men, but was rather on the de-
crease. We may shortly expect the detailed official
reports of the Major General commanding the expedi-
tion; in the meantime, the Governor-General, in order
to celebrate this happy event, has ordered a royal salute
to he fired in the camp of Weltevreden and Buitenzorg,
which seas done accordingly this day.

The heart sickens at the misery and distress which, in
the last eventful week, have visited the princely Bank-
ing establishments of this great commercial country.
But we rejoice to announce, by infallible signs, the re-
appearance of ti anquillity among the higher classes in
rrercantiie credit; although much suffering is still to
he expected among the countless numbers who depend
for the ordinary transaction of their aff irs on that ac-
commodation which they bad been accustomed to re-
ceive from the liberality of their Bankers. •
The Stocks have recovered from their agitated state,
and are now steadily rogainng their natural price—an
evident proof that the Town and Country Bankers have
already converted into money ss much •f those securi-
lies as were necessary to sustain the demands upon them
by their more timid and frightened customers;and hence,
tie panic having subsided, it is evident that the ordinary
re-investment of unnecessary balances will speedily take
place, and money, in consequence, sill be returned into
circulation as rapidly as it had recently disappeared.
For much of this we are indebted to the manly and
praise-worthy declaration of the Meeting at the Mansion
Douse, which, as we predicted, was eminently calcu-
lated to restore public confidence. It has been signed
by 700 names of the highest respectability ; and their
example has extended itself into the provincial districts
with the same beneficial effect. The declarations of the
Country Gentlemen and Magistrates in various Counties,
not wily in the safety of their respective local Bank.,
but including an offer of personal guarantee in some
histantes, has paralysed the alarms, which, if they had
ceniSubcd, would have overwhelmed the whole Ern-
led destroyed every vestige of security And credit
