CALCUTTA, Juxi 25.

We have been favoured with the perusal of letters
from Rangoon, of the 28th and 30th of May, brought
by the recent arrivals, from which we learn, that every
thing was going on tranquilly and well. The treasure
was expected in a day or two, as on the 28th the May-,
woon, in charge of it, was very near to Rangoon. It
is said he brings the whole of,the instalment, and there
is no doubt of its being a considerable proportion.
Since the restoration of tritnqUillity, the population
of Rangoon has increased in a most astonishing manner :
it is suspected that part of the augmentation is only tern-
.porary, the people being so far on their way to the south-
ern settlementi : however, such a purpose is not,avowed.,
The Burman authorities are very suspicious of the in-
tentions of,tha Peguers, and very universally expreis a
hope that we may be solicited to remain some dine at
Rangoon, until the new order of things is fully esta-1
blished ; no ital:nation of such a wish, however, has been
otficially made; and our preparations for a final rcntove
proceed without interruption.
We understand that shortly after Sir A. Campbell's
return to Rangoon, a party with elephants and cattle,
weiedetiched from the land COhlttlfl to' Manahan by
way of Pegu. In consequence, however, of the untisually
early commencement of the rains, the roads proved im-
passable, and the patty were compelled to return-to
Pegu, whence they will proceed to Rangoon.
'the most friendly intercourse is maintained between
the British Authorities and the Burman Chiefs, and
amongst others a letter has been received from Udina,
the ez-Rajah or Martaban,wbo is rather in an awkward
Predicaments*: be has not been" restored to his Govern-
ment by the Court of Ava. This Chief is 70 years of
age, addicted to the use of spirits, mischievous at all
times, but particularly when in his caps. He served
under the bundoola in Assam and Camay, and from his
temper and habits is not unlikely to be a troublesome
neighbour, it replaced in his post. His power to do
mischief, however, must be very limited, and his years
and propensities render it probable he will not, however
well disposed, be troublesome long.
Commerce was beginning to revive at Rangoon, and
considerable supplies of grain had been already re-
ceived from the Mattab.tn province—a proof of the
productiveness of the latter.

Our Corespondent at Rangoon gives the following information :

RANGOON, Juas 19, 1826.
The Moira arrived line on the 16th instant, with the
twoi Chiefs .of tivoy, and three Vakeels, who• were
lately prisoners of war at Calcutta. The other prisoners,
viz. the Rajah and Rahnee of Cheduba may be ex-
pected every day, by the steam-vessel. The other ships
which have arrived between the 14th and this day, are
the Thetis, the General Wood, and the Hydery. His
Majesty's ship. Atlas, from the coast of Africa, arrived
this day. The non-arrival-of ships from Madras, makes
all the. Madraisees, high. and low, very anxious. The
trade of Rangoon is returning by degrees to its usual
briskness, and the population of Rangoon has consi-
derably increased. Those fugitives whO have returned,
as well as the most considerable part of the l3armans,
Jive buoyed pp with.the Wipe that the English will per-
manently retain Rangoon: if they
.do not, the Bur-
mans, will all remove to the territories of the English.
—The n town is becoming very prosperous; houses
are building, and some of the settlers ' are so so enter-
prising ..s to send to the Coroniandei coast for brick
and chutiGni ; but they will find it an nnnecessarrez-
pense, as the country aboun3s with lime—and bricks
may be be easily male, tl.e clay of the country being
peculi.irly fit for that article.
