TO THE PROPRIETORS OF EAST INDIA STOCK.
LADIES AND OENTLEMEN,
FINDING, on my return to Town this morning,
that a sudden and unexpected Vacancyillas taken place in
the. East India Direction, by the resignation of Sir DAVID
Seim, Dart. I beg leave respectfully to announce to you, that
1 it is not my intention to proceed to the Mot upon the present
occasion. I shall, however, avail myself of this opportunity of
ming my personal respects to the individual Proprietors ; and
from the many kind and zealous assurances of support which I
have received from a numerous list of Friends, I venture to
hope, that at a future period I may lo•k forward with sense de-
gree of confidence to the attainment of the object of my ambi-
tion.—l have the honour to be, Ladies and Gentlemen,
Your obedient and devoted Servant,
Portland-place, August 4, 1 NO. WM. CURTIS, jun.

LOAN OF MONEY.
THE object of this Advertisement is to obtain
confidence, not to abuse it. Though the Advertisex js
sensible of the prejudice excited by the occasional misconduct of
unprincipled individuals, he trusts he has some claim to sincerity,
when he assures those who may honour hint with their cotnmu-
litigations, that they will experience treatment the most candid,
liberal, and explicit ; ascertaining at once what will be effected,
whether on Freehold, Copyhold, Leasehold, or other security.
Address, post paid, to I'. M. care of Mr. Yonge, 10, Essex-
street, Strand. '

place the Arabs had quitted, until, by an increase to
my'numbers, I should travels. in my power to more
coMpletely encircle-the whole of the town. .
' " Means were afforded me to carry this purpose
into effect, .by the arrival, in the course of the day,
of the detachment under the command of Captain,
Backhouse, of his Majesty's 47th Regiment, comb,
posed of the flank companies of that corps and of the,
first 3d Regiment of Native Infantry, which you were-,
pleased :o send for, on your knowledge of the great
labour and fatigue borne by my small detachment,,
in getting the guns and stores from the distant land-
ing-place,
and which necessarily caused the greatesu
number of my men to be almost constantly detached
and employed on fatiguing duties. The next morn-
ing . the Riflemen, supported by the pickets, were.
again called into play, and soon established their
position within three or four hundred yards of the
town, which, with the base of the hill, was so corn-,
pletely surrounded as to render the escape of any of
the garrison nose almost impossible. This advantage,
however, was not gained without a severe loss, the
rifle company and the regiment at large having been
deprived, by the death of Ensign Mathieson, of the
services of a most gallant, intelligent, and zealous
Officer. Two twenty-four pounders and the two
twelves, the landing of which had been retarded by
the difficulty of communication with the fleet, from
which we derived all our supplies, having been no*
brought on shore, we broke ground in the evening,
and, notwithstanding the unfavourableness of the
soil, from its rocky nature, had them ready to play
next morning at daybreak ; the former to batter in
breach the hill fort on the north-east side, and the
latter to destroy the defences of the Sheikh's 'souse
on the westward.
" Aware, however, that the families of the enemy
were all still in the town, and humanity dictating
that some efforts should be made to save the inno-
cent from the fare that awaited the guilty, an oppor-
tunity was afforded for that purpose, by an offer to
the garrison of security to their women and children,
should they be sent out within the hour; but the in-
fatuated Chief, either from an idea that his fort on
the hill was not to be reached by our shot, or with
the vain hope to, gain time by procrastination, re-
turning no answer to our communication, while be
detained our messenger, we opened our fire at half-
past eight in the morning, and such was the preci-
sion of the. practice, that, by half-past ten, perceiving
the breach would be soon practicable, I was in the
act of issuing the necessary orders for the assault,
when a white flag was displayed, and the enemy,
after some little delay in assembling from the differ•
egri
ent quarters of the place, marched out without th •
arms, with Hussein Bin Aly at their head, to the
number of 398 ; and, at half-past one, P.M. .the Bri-
tish flags were hoisted on the hill fort, and at the
Sheikh's house. The women and children, to the
number of 400, were, at the same time, collected,
together in a place of security, and I am happy to
add, without a single instance of either injury or
insult to their persons or feelings having occurred.
—The prisoners have been since sent on board the
fleet, and I am now dismantling the fort and the
Sheikh's house.
" The service has been short but arduous. The
enemy defended themselves with an obstinacy and
ability worthy of a better cause.
" The exertions of every person in this detachment
passed under your view and that of Captain Collier
during your occasional visits to the scene of opera-
tions. You are therefore fully able to appreciate the
zeal by which Captain Walpole, of his Majesty's
brig Curlew, who commanded the sailors, on shore,
must have been actuated, and the ability with which
that zeal was applied, to have enabled him to over-
come the difficulties attending the landing of the
supplies and stores, particularly the guns, which,
after lutipg brought up a narrow, intricate, and shal-
low creels, a distance of upwards of three miles, had
to be dragged through a muddy swamp, and after-
wards. over a considerable space of rocky and inter•
sected ground, before they could be placed in the bat.
teries. In this service he was much assisted by Lieut.
Campbell, of his Majesty's ship Liverpool, whose in.
genui ty, in finding out new expedients to overcome each
difficulty, as it presented itself, never failed him ; and
the precision with which he laid the guns in the
twenty-four pounder battery, where he commanded
under the superintendence of Captain Walpole, could
not be surpassed.
" To the rifle company of his Majesty's 63th Re.
giment, commanded by, Lieutenant Hunt, I am most
particularly indebted. Constantly employed in the
most perilous service; exposed not only to the fire
of the Arabs below, in the date groves, but also to
that of the enemy above; occupying the little towers
and breast-works, with which the whole face of the
hill was studded to the very top ; they never ceased
to evince the utmost spirit, steadiness, and alacrity,
and only required to be restrained to prevent their
going teo far. To Captain Digby, commanding his
Majesty's 65th Regiment, and to Captain Cocke,
commanding the detachment on the west side of the
fort, 'I am also much 'indebted for their unwearied
attenticn to their several duties, as likewise to Capt.
Backhouse, of his Majesty's 17th Regiment, com-
manding the reinforcement, and to Lieut. Morley,
commanding the artillery.
44 The judicious positions chosen by Lieutenant
Price of the engineers, for the erection of the bat-
teries, fully bespeak the merits of that Officer. To
Major Colebrooke, the Deputy Quartermaster-Gene.
ral, and Captain Wilson, your Military Secretary,
*horn you were kind enough to permit to accom.
party me throughout this service, I am under
most particular obligations for their advice and as-
sittance on every occasion, and to Lieutenant Mir-
riot, your Aide-de!Camp, I am greatly indebted, not
only for his services during the late operations, but
Lbefore at Itasulkhyma, during
.the attack on our
trenches there. Without the assistance of those O.
eers, I should have found it most difficult to keep up
my communications with the detachment on the
west side of the town and along the extended chain
we were obliged to take.ep, round the bare of the
hill, to prevent the escape of the enemy. Froth the
intelligence and zeal of Captain 'Thompson, the in.
terpreter, I have also derived great benefit. To
Lieutenants Place and Worsen, the former Acting
Quartermaster, and the latter. Acting Adjutant to
the detachment, I have likewise had occasion
express my obligation for their attention and ala-
crity in the peiformance of their- duties. Nor can
I close this report without feeling that it is due

short, few services of so limited a duration, have
afforded more opportimities to the troops to exhibit
qualities of greater capability of fatigue and endur-
ance of privations than the present, 'owing to the
great distance of the fleet from the camp, which pre-
vented the tents from being landed, until the opera-

borne by the Officers and men with exemplary cheer-,
fulness. In conclusion, I beg leave to inclose sop

" A Journal of Belgium, of the 2d of August,

there is a report at Frankfort of new disturbances
having broken out at Berlin ; it is even affirmed that
six Prussian regiments have received orders to hasten,
by forced marches, to that capital:"

give to this letter; we should have been at none, had its
authenticity rested on any other authority than that of
the Ultra-Royal manufactory of the Gazette* France.
If we may believe this statement, the province is
plunged in all the borrorsof civil war ; the Apostolic
Junta is in full action on the banks of the Minho;
all the distinguished persons who have fed Eons
Spain in consequence /the Revolution, are hasten-

put himself at the "head of die Insurgents ; three
thousand armed peasants marched, on the morning
of the 22d of July, against Orense, and having
put the battalion of Burgos to flight, entered the!
place ; another corps of the Insurgents have marched
along the coast upon Corwin; and the Militia
that place, to the number of eleven hundred,
have refused to make any opposition; the counter.'
revolutionary Army has taken for its motto—
" Dieu et le Roi," and has avowed its object to be
the preservation of the ancient (ancient indeed)
liberties of the Spanish ,Nation ; there has been a
smart contest on the banks of the Minho, which
ended in almost the whole of the Regiment of Ptin-
tevedra passing over to the Insurgents ; and, finally,
to make a fit ending to this strange eventful history,
all the peasants were armed with eiedlent English

THE LATE DUCHESS OF YORX.

Throughout the whole of yesterday the vicinity
York House, in St. James's Palace, was crowded with
the carriages of the Nobility, who were anxiously
pressing forward to leave their cards of condolence.
Sir HENRI HALWORD arrived in town yesterday
forenoon express, from Wistow, his seat in Leices•
tershire, and drove directly to York Muse, where
he had an interview of more than .an hour with his
Royal Highness.
Softie time ago her Royal Highness gave orders
for the construction of a vault in the Parish Church
of Weybridge, and she herielf s ' tended the
execution of the work. It is su therefore, that
her Royal Highness,-Intending it as the depository of
her own rionittosi has made known her wishes upon
the subjeleto her Royal consort, and that the inter-
ment will take place there.
The different branches of the Royal Family ap•
peered in sleep mourning; with crape on their hats,
ate. Their principal attendants also appeared in the
same mournful state.

Yesterday the bells of the Churches of the Metro-
polis tolled, upon the inalancboly occasion of the1
death of the Duchess of Moat. di, number of shops
were partially closed, particularly those of her late
Royal Highness's tradespeople. The Duke of YORK
arrived at York House on Sunda night, about twelve
o'clock, from Oatlands, the scene of so much afflic-
tion to his Royal Highness.

The'pretopition regarding the fatal occurrences
at Greenock has been closed. All the seven soldiers
remain IN Jail. We are happy to learn that the two
persens who were wounded on this unfortunate occa-
sion, are doing well.
ENGLISH OPERA Housx.—The new Romantic
Drama of "The Vampire," which was to have been
produced last night, but for the unfortunate
which closed the Theatres, is to come out to-morrow'
evening. Report speaks favourably of its interesti4g]
situations and beautiful scenery; the music is pril-1,
cipally selected from Scottish Melodies..
The Haymarket Theatre, English Op2ra-house,
and other places of amusement under the authority
of the LORD CHAMBERLAIN, were closed last night,
in consequence of the death of her Royal Highness
the Duchess of Yong. It is expected they will open
tamotrow night, and will be shut again only on the
night of her Royal Highness's funeral.
