EAST INDIA INTELLIGENCE.

MADRAS, JULY 4,
By the Lady Sophia; letters have been received
from Batavia and Bencoolen. It is stated that seve-
ral free traders and Arneficans were lying at Bata-
via ; that European goods were very cheap ; that
great difficulty was experienced in procuring car-
goes, and that in consequence freight was at a low
rate. The ship Lady Baines had arrived at Batavia
from Bencoolen, before the departure of the Lady
Sophia ; and the report is confiVmed, that Captain
Travers was tht braver of dispatches from Sir Tho-
mas Raffles io the Batavian Government ; but the
nature of them has not been mentioned. If there be
any truth in the rumour, which prevailed some time
ago, that Sir Thomas Raffles had been consulted by
the Netherlands Government, respecting the best
mode of continuing—or-establishing under the Dutch
Au.hesities,. that system which had produced Bene-
ficial eifecu under the British Government : it is
very.poselble, that the dispatches taken by Captain
Travers, ma) relate to this subject.
JULY 11.—Calcutta Journals to the 24th ult. have
been received. They give a melancholy account of
the progress of the epidemic At Cawnpore, and also
at NAgpore. It appears that Dr. Corbyn's practice
has failed of success, at the latter place and that
doubts are of course entertained of its efficacy ;-but
it is not mentioned that a more successful mocre of
practice has as yet been discovered. We are indebted
to The Calcutta Mirror of the 24th ult. for the fol-

lowing article :
I, We are extremely sorry to state, that our letters
from Nagpore of the beginning of Jane, represent
the sickness tbaris now prevailing in that part of
India., to be of a very serious and alarming nature.
This disorder, which of course has received the name
of chasm ntorbsu, . first appeared in the camp of Co-
lonel Adams on the 30th ult. the day on which his
corps reached Nagpore. On that day 15 Sepoys and
a great number Of camp followers died of it. The
inhabitants of Nagpore had been suffering from it
grievously, for a fortnight infers Colonel Adams
reached the capital, and the mortality among them is
stated by our Intelligent correspondent as at the rate
of 25 per diem."
Cornet Small:rage, and a party of the Bth Native
Cavalry, had been detached in search of Appa Sahib,'
