FROM THE CALCUTTA JcHN LULL CF JULY 2.

The force under Deutenant Pemberton and Gum-
beer Sicg has entered Munnipore, and the British Rig
is row flying , n the citadel. Ti is news is important,
and our Readers =ay rest a,sured of its correct, cis.—
The enemy niaJe r o resistance, we are told, but fled on
the approach ni bur torte.
_ _

Munnipnre, cr Munnipora (ilanipura, the town of
siestas), is a town in the But man empire, and tt-O capital
of the prnyince ct. Cassay. The district in which this

town is situated, is sometimes called the Muggaloo or
Meckly country, and is the nearest communication be-
tween the N.E extremity of Bengal, and the N.W.
quarter of the Burman territories; but the route has
never before been traversed by Europeans. The town
was captured by the Burrrians in 1774, and has ever
since remained tributary tfs them. An intercourse
subsists between it and the Province of Assam, for, in
'1794, the British detachment which went to Gzrgong,
the cal.ital of Assatii, saw there a body of cavalry,
which had attired from Nlunnipore.
I'ltOME, MAY 3. _

There appears to be no chance of peace, after all
that has been said on the subject. Nine hundred and
tiny men, composed cif all the flank companies of the
European R-giments here, I ave been ordered off to
'bongo, a place about a hundred miles in advance of
this, on the-road ter Ava, where it is supposed the
enemy have taken up a strong position; besides this,
there is a troop of the Body Guard and two field-
pieces, the
.command of which has been given to Co-
lonel Godwin, of the 41st Regiment. They march on
the sth, and are to be supplied with fifteen days provi-
sions. We have heard nothing more from Ava since
Sarawaddy's Prome is a miserable place, and
the troops are miserably housed, for one-half have no
houses at all, and the other half houses, but no roofs
to them.
The letter then goes on to ray, that the supplies are
scarce, all the fiotiila had been sent back to Rangoon
for provision', and it was supposed the Army would
advance when they rem ned, if the rains did not prove
too strong.
JUNE 4.—" The Chief of the Hugada District,which
adjoins the It mine one, came in the day before yester.
day and surrendered himself; saying he had done every
thing to oppose our progress as long as there was any
prospect or success; but that he now perceived the in-
ability of his country to contend with us, and was de.
s rous to submit to our authority. The near approach
of a prt of General Morrison's di►ision, dispatched from
Arracan, is supposed to have induced him to this sup.
A Bengal Sepoy, who was taken in the first outset of
the business, with Mr. Chew, of the Pilot Service, anti
can ied prisoner to Ava, escaped a few days since, and
came down here. He reports 'that they are making
every preparation to strengthen the defences of de
cApital, mounting guts, anal hii ing troops at 15 tickals
(,ornething more than 15 rupees) per month. A nephew
of Bundool..'s is said to be their Generalissin o. Every
article of European consumption is exorbitantly high—
Beer from '2O to '24 t oilers a dozen—bad Maieira

Brandy 60—and other articles in propurtim."

Apprehensions of an invasion from the Quedah shore appear to
have subsided at Penang.
FRall B(MBAY PAPERS, JUNE 9.

Furat, we regret to hear, is again afflicted with the cholera mor-
bus. The Government of Kandanpoor having lo.come vacant by
the death of the hoe Nawab, attempts were made by some of his
Dlini.ters to place an illegitimate child on the 111usnuil ; but a dis-
merry having been made as to the defect of the title, some persons
whose claims are supported .by the nearest ties of consanguinity,
ate wlanily ccutending for the right of possession.
The prsdatorr gangs, which for so many years have been in the
habit 1.1 committing depredations in cantleish, are at Fist (we are
gratified to hear). brought to a sense of their true interest ; and by
conciliatory measures which have been adopt, d by the local autho-
rities, im:uted to turn their attention to habits of industry for
their support.

This forenoon we received ardssels and Gheiir Papers
to the flOth instant. They still continue to notice the
attacks of some of the French Journals on the in,,Eitutions
of the Nttherlands: The following ate extracts :

BRUSSELS, Nomura 16.
The Anti de la Religion, printed at Paris, has just
made a most brutal attack on the Ministers and several
public functionaries of the Kingdom of the Netherlands.
Among those who have not the good fortune to please
it, is the Count de C,, one of the most distinguished
Members of the Second Chamber of the States Genet al,
not only as an orator, bat as a statesman ; it points out
this honourable Deputy as destined to support, in the
Second Chamber, the new laws which will be preienteJ
by the (iovetn,ment.

While The Priend of Religion was publishing this
I.ole calumny, Count de C— was on his wartaltaly.

The Courier Francais conjectures that the journey ni
Count C. may have for its object a special mission to
the Holy See, consider ing the present state of ecclesias-
tical affairs in our country. We do not know whether
there is any truth in this, but it is certain that the
malice of the Anti de la Religion is a clumsy falsehood.
It it affirmed (and there are certain symptoms which
induce us to believe it), that rnost positive orders have
just been given, that the greatest toleration shall be
exercised in the Netherlands, tuwards writers who shall
confine aemselyes to pointing nut public anuses, and
criticising the measures of Covet nment, without attack-
ing the reputation and individual rights of the citizen
It is too great and too strang to desire to revenge it self
for an unjust censure, which meets its punishment in
the general disapprobation; and too much the friend of
the people not to desire to be enlig'itened by criti-
cism, which is always salutary when it is reaso: able
and well founded.

In a preceding column we have given some extra, is
from the East India papers, relating to the war against
the Birmese. The accounts from Prime ate to the 6th,
and from Rangoon to the 19th of June. Al;hough all
the operations of our Army are successful, )et the
Birmese still hold out, and there is reason to believe
that the overtures of peace were but an artifice to gain
time. In the meantime our Army had advanced far
into the country, the season was wearing away, and the
rains had set in, so that it is probable ow ti ()ors u ill re-
m•iin in their cantonments for some time, unless the
Birmese should sue for peace, of which there was no
appearance at the date of the latest intelligence from
the seat of war.

The Calcutta Papers represent our Army as in good
health; but a letter from Madras, in a Morning Paper,
states that it is quite the reverse : the country and the
season arc, however, by no means fav(,urable to health.
The value of money in I, dia ha', risen with the in-
creased demand for it occasioned by the war. All sorts
of Stocks have fallen. Eight per cent. is now the market
rate of interest there, and it will probably rise still higher
if the war is much prolonge.l. The Company's remit-
able paper had fallen from Si to 25; the non-remitable
paper and the live per Cent. Loan were at par. The
Exchange on England had risen to 2i. '2d. per rupee.
