and watchfulness of his array, disguised hiliself, and

Chiefs whe were threausaingso levy-upon them heavy
contributions. A Council of all the leadin; men had
been held to consider of the public safety, but no
measure appears to have been adopted. The princi-
pal Minister sent away all his family from Jaypore,
and then destroyed himself. An the other Ministers
had either concealed themsch•es or absconded. The
latest accounts from Ilolkar's camp describe the pe-
cuniary embarrassments of that Court as in the ea.

cording to the latest accounts from Amretsir, was at
Lahore, preparing for the invasion of Cashmere.

was announced for repetition this evening, with a tu-
malt of ippraliation, and without a dissentient voice.
