A LATE INCIDENT 1/1 HYDE TAAL

THE Park teems with gazers, the Persian approaches.
A throng of Equestrians, Gigs, Hobbies, and Coaches
'lrradiate the Riug, while the space each bright lass in
The presence invokes of the far-fam'd Circassian;
In vain ;—the Ambassador only appears,
In costume, attendants a train in his suit,
And nowas the motley assemblage he hears,
His eye meets the shades in each high-polished Boor
All Exquisite gracing, his Hobby who strode,
And wheel'd it, so gay, to and fro on the road.—
Waaitines fine Jet the bright Boots shone resplendent,
No Caliph of old, of lialsota or Bagdad,
,S.eh luminous Boors or yet wonderful Nag had 1.-
4' Go, learn," his Excellency told an attrndant,—
4•Vhat mean they, that Rider's mysterious pursuits,
'" Existence tranferr'd from his Horse to his Boots!"
He sped am his errand, and now Atone display'd
.Agtendant and Steed in each Boot's glossy shade,
The Jet likes Mirror reflecting them true,—
Two dark tiny Coursers and Horsemen us view.
The Lacquey reeeled,—pre.aging attack,—
Mat Elves too their Steeds in the Jet seamed to back ;
" Great Allah ! propitiously hear my petitions, • .
And guard Inc (he cried), in this bled of Blagicians."
`"'nog 'Devils, great Sir, in these Boots are essentials,—
" Their Chief in Divan will receive Tout' credentials
"o Year Highness," a Nobleman 'said, "-if their revels

The service of Waltintil you still may command,
" Their Chieftain, who sits in Divan in the Strand."

FURTHER. PARTICULAR&
Letters from Russah Chokey, of the,lsth of April,
state that the Burmese had left that part of the country
and retired seventy miles higher up, where they had an
advanced post at Moura alookh. They were said to
have been atkacked by the Assamese Cblef, Chnntle\
Kum, assisted by some of the neighbouring Hill Tr ibes,'
and driven down to Jorehaut. Kalliabur, the place upon
which the Governor-General's Agent was advancing, is
about a weeks march above Goahutter.

MAT 3.—Tee Buftwesa.—The latest letters froM the
party with Mr. Scott are dated Russah Chokey, 14th of
April.' The had found about 200 maundi of grain
left by the Burmese. It was reported that Chunder
gaunt, one of 'the Assamese Princes; had made his
escape from the Burmese, and taken refuge with the
people of Sing Pho and **entre, and that they and the
biabomareeas had formed a junction, driven the Bur-
:apse from itungpore, and obliged Ahem to retire down
the river to Jorehaut. •
It appeared from the information obtained at Ru'nab
Chokey,"tbat the action at I3eerkola, in February last,
had done the enemy more mischief than could have
been effected by any other means. The Burmese Com-
mander was said to have returned to Russah Ch key
in rags, and.to such straits were his followers reduced,
that three of them were killed fighting for the root of
a plantain tree. Of the men they took on that expedi-
tion not one-half returned. The party audit the Agent
were advancing to Kalliaber, and did nots(xpect to find
any difficulty in getting provisions, which, by all ac-
counts, were abundant on that route. The party would
consist of about 800, including carap-followers, and the
Rajah Jynteah's troops, of whom the Agent would take
about 250, with two small pieces belonging to them.
The party had got through the hills, after seven or
eight marches from Jynteeapore, making the whole
distance, between Gowahattee • and S)lhet, twelve
marches. Were the road, improved, bridges made, and
one or two depots of provisions firmed, troops could
march across at any seasoa of the year, and the country
would form a most excellent convalescent station for
sick Officers or men in Assam.
A little vessel, of about sixty tons, belonging to
Messrs. Kyd and Co. arrived at Chittagong, on the 27th
April, from Rangoon. On her way she lost a boat,
with an Officer, neared Sutherland, together with the
boat's crew, who were sent ashore for water, at a place
about fifteen miles below the mouth of the Arracan
River, and were carried off by the Burmese. The vessel
cut hercable, and made her escape. The ComMander
of the vessel reports, that the King of Ava was bent on
war, and that un the Shaporee business he had sent the
General Bundyola, with 6,000 men, from Ava, and had
placed at his disposal a force in toto of 30,000 men.
At Rangoon, the Burniese had no idea of an attack,
and would not, it is supposed, make any opposition;
but the mere taking of the place, Without further and
more serious military operations, would not probably
induce the King to solicit terms. -
There was a rumour at Chittagong, of the return of
the Burmese to the Southward, on our frontier, hut
scouts had come in, and reported that there was no ap-
pearance of their near approach."
CAPTURE OF GOWAHATTY.

CALCUTTA, AIM Is.•
Official intelligence has, we untie! bumf, been re-
ceived from 13rigacher M'Morine, dated Camp Pur..
donnauth, on the left bank of the Berhampooter, March
2s, repo►ting the occupation, by our troops, of Gowa•
patty, the capital of Assam.

.was joined by the howitzers
on the 26th Mardi, when he-advenced . with the *hole
force, consisting of the Rungpore Light Infantry,
Chinvarun L►ght Infantry, and Dinagepore Local

From private accounts we have gathered the follow-
ing further particulars:—On the 27th the troops arrived -
at Plosbatig, and the advanced guard, under Captain
Soeyd, saw about twenty Burmese close to the place
where aey were to encamp. The Burmese took to
flight, and were followed by Captain Sneyd's patty un-
til they disappeared in a deep Nullah, when a loud
shout was set up by about two hundred others from the
opposite bank, beating tomtoms, &c. Reinforcements
from the Dinagepore battalion, and gongpore Light In-
fantry, having come up, the Burmese retreated, and
the party under Captain Sneyd dashed at them. but
could not come up with them. They were so closely
pursued, however, that some of them hid themselves in
the huts of the village that surrounded their post, one of
whom wan discovered during the day by the villagers,
who brought him into camp fastened like a wild beast.
In the stockade abandoned by the Burmese, a dead
body was found with the head cut off, and otherwise
dreadfully mutilated ; and on the preceding night four-
teen shots, supposed to be cannon, were distinctly heard
in the camp, which, the villagers afterwards informed
our party. were large gingals, from which the Burmese
had blown fourteen Assamese Chiefs, suspected of an
intention to come over.
It is supposed that no further resistance will be made
by the enemy. Several of the Assamese tribes had as-
sembled to cut them up, and prevent their passage
through their country to Ava. The Rajah Dring had
accepted our protection, together with a number of petty
chiefs. The Rajah of Luckey Dewah, and some others,
had been carried away by the Burmese.
Five companies of the 23d Native Infantry, under
Lieut.-Colonel Richards, were proceeding up by water,
and expected to reach Gowahatty on the evening of the
28th, the day on which Gowahatty was taken.—The
intelligence of the success of Brigadier *Moline had
reached Mr. Scott, the Agent to the Governor-General,
then at Sy lhet, and he had marched to Gowahatty with
three companies of the 23d Native Infantry, on tl* 3d
instant, across Jyuteeapore.
..THE GREEKS AiVD•THE TURKS.
LEGHORN, SUPTEMBER 20.
A report is in circulation here that the Greek fleet has
defeated the Egyptian fleet near Rhodes.
By a letter from Zante, dated the 3d of this month, we
have the following particulars respecting the naval action
off Samos; which news having been made known by
the two Greek Vice-Admirals to thp Governor of Syra,
was brought thither by a ship from Syra, in four days.
The loss of the Turks was as follows :—ln the first
station, an Admiral's ship, two fi igates, one corvette, and
forty transports; in all forty-five ships. The second
action, 29 transports ; so that the Turks have lost in all
74 ships burnt, destroyed, or taken.
Mr. E. Blaquiere had also arrived in a ship from
Hydra in five days, and confirms all these particulprs.
He adds that the remainder of the whole Turkish,•fleet,
consisting of seventeen ships, had retested to Boudron.
UPPER MAINE, SEPTEMBER 26.
The most recent letters received from the frontiers of
Turkey acquaint us that new firmans have been sent
from Constantinople to the Pachas of the northern pro-
vinces of European Turkey, enjoining them to send im-
mediately all their troops that can be spared to Thes-
saly, and to direct them to Larissa, to enable the corn-
manJer of the Ottoman axsny iu Thessaly to re-open
tbe•campaign and resume offensive operations. These
&mans have produced some effect ; for we learn by
the same letters, that several corps, taken from the
camps on the right bank of the Danube, have already
marched for Thessaly. New levies are mustering in
those provinces, but the Turkish commanders in '
gene-
ral complain of the backwardness of the recruits, who
take every opportunity to leave the service, and seem
wholly indifferent to the result of the expedition against
the Greeks. The camp at Nissa is so reduced by desertion,
and by the numerous detachments sent successively to
Thessaly, that it contains no more than 3,000 men. The
camp at Widdin is one of the most numerous, but the
troops comprising it• have no mind to march to dis-
tant prolinces. The camp at Rudschick has also been
much !educed.
The new measures ordered by the Porte confirm all
the preceding private accounts of the de' eats of the St-
raskier of Thessaly, the great losses which he has sus-
tained, and the ravages of the plague, which still pre.
rails in the Turkish army.
Several landings made by the Greeks on the coast of
Macedonia were much spoken of, as well as the critical
state of things at Constantinople. Nu new details; how-
ever, are given on this subject, at least no new facts are
mentioned. (At Vienna no letters had arrived from
Pisa of a later date than the 261 h of August.)
" A letter from Bucharest announces the receipt of
letters from Constantinople of the 30th of A ugu4t, which
state that the operations of the Capitan Pacha against
Samos have not succeeded, and that this Admiral has
suffered considerable loss, but without giving any de-
tails on the subject. This letter adds, that the Greeks
have hiterrupted forthe moment use direct communica-
don between Constantinople and the Capitan Paella, by
the aid of a division of their flotilla, which cruises at ihe
entrance of the Dardanelles, and. has- clokspie;.n-good

articles for the Turkish fisr..
