may be from three to tour belittled. row fine bras.
guns, aaout 6-pounder calibre, and one considerably
larger, with their proportion of tumbrils and stores,
have fallen into my hands; three elephants, nearly
200 camels, add some treasure, besides a variety of
valuable property, the amount of which I have not
as yet been able to ascertain. The measured distance
of the road from Alumdeo to this place is 31 miles,
the distance in the course of operations, as marched
by the troops, considerably greater; I have conse-
quently deemed it necessary to halt to-morrow, as
well to refresh the troops as afford time for the bag-
gage and supplies to join; after this I shall have the
sincerest pleasure in co-operating with you, and re-
ceiving yogi- instructions as to the best method of fur-
ther harassing the enemy, on whose troops the sur-
prise of this morning may, I trust, have a happy
effect, dissension and discontent being already, as I
am informed, prevalent among them, and the deser-
tion of large bodies from Bajee Row's cause not un-
frequent.—l have the honour, &c.

Extract from a Dispatch from the Governor hi Council at
Bombay to the Secret Committee, dated May.l6.
The following dispatches have been tecerved sub-
sequently to our letter of the 11th of this month, viz.
From the Provisional Collector of Ahmednuggur,
to the Hon. Mr. Elphinstone, dated the 30th April,
reporting the dispetsion of the enemy's troops in that
neighbourhood.
Letter from Brigadier-General Smith, and its ac-
companiments, communicating the important intelli-
gence of his Hightiess Chinnajee (v) Appa, and the
Dessye (v) of Nopanee, having tendered ;heir sub-
mi,sion.

A report from Brigadier-General Munro, of his
progress in occupying the southern part of the Pci:l-
- territory.
We have also the satisfaction of forwarding copy
of a letter from his Lscellency the Commander-in-
Chief, and of one from Lieutenant-Colonel Prother,
announcing the reduction of the important fortress
of ityghur (zu), on the morning of the 10th of this
month. .
We beg to offer to your Hon. Committee our most
cordial congratulations on the submission of Chin-
najee Appa and of Appa Dessye, which, it is hoped,
will be followed by that of Bajee Row, since he has
thus been deserted by his principal adherents.
Eatraet from a Leti?r from Lieutenant Pottinger, Provisional
Cellector of Ahmednuggur, to the Honourable Mountstuart
Eiphinstoae, dated 30th April.
I have much pleasure in inform;ng you, that al-
most the whole of the body of horse that enterel the
Newassa (z) Pergunna, on the 27th instant, and by
whom a considerable degree of alarm was excited in
this part of the country, -have dispersed and returned
to their respective villages, under the terms of your
second proclamation.
Itaol I)cen (9) is still abroad, with about 1.500
men, but the inhabitants of walled villages seem to
speak of him with contempt ; and I have no doubt
but that a very small body of auxiliary horse would
cut him up, as his horses and men are stated to be
exhausted to the last degree.
Estract from a Dispatch from Lieutenant-Central Sir Miles
Nightinga/L K.C.D. to the Governor in Council at ilinthay,
dated May I t.
I do myself the honour to lay before you a copy
of a letter from Lieutenant-Colonel Prother, dated
the 10th inst. reporting that the fortress of Ryghur
'had been surrendered by the enemy, and taken pos-
session of by the troops under his command.
I beg leave to 'offer my cordial congratulations to
your Honourable Board on the brilliant termination
to the very laborious duties that have fallen to Lieu-
tenant-Cohm :l Prother and the troops under his com-
mand, since the commencement of the war, and
which most justly entitle them to every praise for
their great zeal nand persevering exertions, which have
been most conspicuous and unremitting, but particur
larly so on the present occasion.
The success of the detachment has been much aided
by the science cf the Artillery Officers, greater proof
of which need not be adduced than has been dis-
played at Hy-Our, for notwithstanding its stupen-
dous height and extensive area ort the top, shells
were thromxinto every part of it, and the palace set
on fire, which no doubt greatly tmded to determine
the enemy to surrender.

lixtrac. front a Report from Lieutenant-Co:onel Prother, to the
Aeljt.tant-Genera!, dated Fortof Rutter, May 10.
I have the gratifying task of sending you, by
Lieutenant Powell, my Brigade Quartermaster, the
important information, which I request may be laid
before his Excellency the Commander-in-Chief, of
the surrender of the fortress of Rygbur to the force
under my command, and that I am now in actual
possession. The garrison held out a flag for terms ;
and, after three days of communication and treaty.
I was induced to allow the garrison honourable terms,
viz. Marching out with their arms and private pro-
perty, which was accordingly done early this morn-
mg before me, and I marched up and took possession,
finding in the fort the wife of his Highness the late
Peishwa, and public property, in specie, to the
amount of rive lacy.
It is my intention to permit her Highness to depart
from the fort to-morrow, to any place she may fix
upon, agreeably to. the request sent me by the Hon.
Mr. Elphinstone.
&tract from a Dispatch from Brlpdier-General Lionel Smith.
C. IS. to the Honourable Mouutstuart Llphinatene, dated
Camp, Chickpour, May 9.
In my last report to you of the 2d instant, ac-
quainting you with my having pursued a body of them
money from the Godavery, through the Danoor
Ghatit, after which they had totally dispersed, I in-
formed you also that I had detached the reformed
horse, under Captain Davies, to cut up plunderers'
bands, and straggling parties of the enemy in a line
through the Bheer district upon Alimednuggur ;
While Lieutenant-Colonel Cunningham, with thz auxi-
liary horse, four gallopers, and a detachniert of ir.-
fantry, was sent to the westward to pass for sense
purpose through the country between the Net:Fa and
Kurra fivers,
.and then north upon the capital ; I

past night a Supplement to The Landon Gazette of
Saturday was published, containing official details of
the war that has been so happily terminated in India.
It is gratifying to learn from these dispatches that
the interests of the Natives have been materially im-
proved by the results of the late conflict. Indeed it
would be lamentable to contemplate the horrors that
are so widely spread by war, did no advantages to
the human rat follow the, sometimes lawless, march
of victory and conquest. But, as the conquests of
barbarians have never failed to deteriorate the con-
Idition of mankind by extending the domain of igno-
rance (witness the darkness spread over Europe by
'the incursions of the Scythian Nations in the third,
fourth, and fifth centuries), so, on the other hand,
the conquests effected by more civilized nations over
the less cultivated, however lawless they may often
L_
uc, have, thanks to that PROVIDICNCE which overrules
the destinies of nations, generally tended to extend
Low ledge, and improve die condition of mankind.

The Faris Papers of Saturday arrived this morn-
ing, but are extremely barren of interest. The Sieur
ANGELO Pomo, formerly Charge d'Affaires from the
Ottoman Porte at Paris, and who was well known in
that city for his great expenses, his debts, and his
taste for pleasure, is said to have been strangled by
order of theG BAND SSIONIOR on his return to Turkey.

By an arrival at New Yerk, Bewley Gazet:es of the
22d of May had been received. Very little change
had taken place in the interior affairs of the British
Provinces. The Captain touched at St. Helena on
the 21st of July. BONAPARTE, hd was informed, still
continued very sullen, and would not converse with
any of the British Officers. Those who are in parti-
cular want of any thing St. Helena affords, should
run for the north side of the island, near which they
will be boarded by one of the vessels of war. The,
boarding officer takes particulars of what is wanted,',
and immediately r; ports to his Commander by tele-
graph s: pal& Yau then steer for Sugar-loaf Point,
where. n yc...; arc permitted to enter the bay, a board
will be held t.p to your view, with the word " Pass"
on it ; you will be hailed as you pass, and some
questions asked at you. Steer then for the Flag-
ship, when one of her boats will meet you, in which
there will be two Officers; one returns to the Admi-
ral with an account of your wants, and the other re-
mains on board to keep you honest. No communi-
cation is allowed with the shore ; and water is brought
a-longside in butts, for which the Company only
charge Ss. per ton.
