In announcing yesterday the intelligence of hosti.
Mies having broken out in India, we could hardly ,
credit one ok Ae circumstances stated, viz. that at
the same moment that the Mahratte Powers evinced
a disposition far war, an insurrection had broken out
in Cnttack of so serious a nature, as to interrupt the
direct communication between Calcutta and Madras
for twenty days 1 We could not believe it possible
that, in our own territories, an insurrection, so for-
" Ridable, could possibly have been organized without
the knowledge of the Government, in almost the
centre of its.forces; and still less that the insurgents
should have occupied the country, without interrup.l
tion, for so long a period as three weeks. We find,
however. that the fact was so : the hostile disposition
of the PY:SIIIVA, and the insurrection in Cuttack, broke
out so simultaneously, as to excite in the minds of
many a belief of combined operations having best
concerted between them, though locally posited a
thousand miles distant from each other.

The foresight and promptitude of Mr. ELPHIN.
STONY, in seizing the person of the PlibllWA, Meth
with general apprr.basion, and it is hnped will at any
rate have so tar deranged any intended movement

among the Mahratta Powers, as to allow time to
concert and adopt measures to frustrate their object ;
but it is distressing to know, that the insurrection
among our own subjects was not quelled when the
accounts came away, but only that the force dis-

patched by the Marquis of HALTING& was such as
" it was hoped, put down the insurrection
forthwith."
Besides the events which we have detailed (says
one of the accnunts) we hear that di:diction pad bro-
ken oucin the Ganjam district, as.to render it neces-
sary to send a force of 10.000 men to quell it, and to
put the country under martial law." This, we ap-
prehend, is one and the same thing with the before-
mentioned insurrection of Cuttacki for Ganjam is on
the same coast, and about 120 miles to the southward
of Cuttack ; and gives us, therefore, the alarming

- - , -
picture of upwards of 120 miles of a single district in
One of our own provinces, in open rebellion against
the Government : this, too, in a province whose peace
and loyalty wits essential to the intercourse of our
two great capitals in the East. The force, likewise,
ordered• to act in that quarter, is itself a proof of the
magnitude ascribed to the iasurrectian—an army of
10,000 men ; mote than double the forte with which
the Duke of Witwricrrox achieved against the Mah-
recta arms the splendid victory of Assaye. We
dwell upon these circutuffantes merely to provoke
raose sati.factory information than has yet tran•
spired with regard SO, the affairs of India.—
