SIFT. n. PAIVATZ CORRICSPONDRNCE.
• The King left the Escurial this morning. and his
suite was augmented only by one person, M. Salcedo,
'•
Private Secretary to his Majesty ; some letters indeed
announce that the King will be soon followed by the
Duke de Untainted° and by the Bishop of Leon. H
• this teem to take plate the three most noted chiefs of
. the Apostolic party would be with the King; but the
- joerney of these three personages is doubted by those
who are habitually best informed of Cburt intrigues.
Although the King will pass quite near to Saint Philip
de Xativa and Valencia his Majesty will enter neither
•of these towns. - .

Almost the whole of the Army of Observation has
' set out for Arragon, and a body of eight thousand men
, ere tp assemble in the neighbourhood of Da!oca, a town
about fifteen leagues only from Sarragossa. Although
' the decree announces to the Council of Castille that the
Kiag will repair to Tarragona, his Majesty seems as if
.going to Ducelcma, for the orders given here to the
'Cost Office are for all dispatches to be sent to the lat-
ter tOWO.•

The last reports of M. Campo-&grad° announce
that the Insurgents have 6,000 regimented men, the
greater part of them old soldiers. His Excellency adds,
• that 20,000 may be estimated as the number w;so have
• arms in their hand, and in a greater or less state of or-
ganization.
Different reports are abroad concerning decrees al-
. ready prepared, as it is said, and which are to be pro-
mulgated, as is supposed, during the King's journey :
it is also asserted that these decrees have new proscrip-
tions and changes in the Administration for their object,
which would lead us to a more terrible state of rigour
than that we experienced under the Ministry of I)on
Victor.

It is true that these are only reports. and are to be
received with reserve ; but it is certain that the King's
journey was determined upon an the Ist instant, and
the great secrecy observed in the whole transaction
teems to ion ate that it will give birth to important
*Teats.

EAST INDIES.

►IUIINY AT MONIIWABAD.
PR •Id THE solouwifiArests.

It is with some regret we bore leirnt, by recent let.
ten from Hydrabad, of a melancholy transaction that
occurred on the morning of the 6-11 of May, at Momi.
nabad the head-quarter; of the cavalry d vision of the
Nizams army, it having been reported 'early in the
morning to Lieutenant-Colonel Davie. (the Officer com•
minding the Cavalry Division) that a number of men
of the.3d R giment had turned out and refused to obey
the orders of their Officers. Upon inquiry it was found
'that the men alluded to had planted a flag on the Ge-
neral Parade., and with arms in their hands refused t
listen to their Commanding Officer, who was vainly
endeavouring to persuade them to return to their duty.
Lieutenant-Colonel Davies, accompanied by his Brigade
Major, procee led to the spot, where about 25 men were
found a.senshlird. On t' e Colonel approachieg, they
exclaimed (making use of Menacing gestures)" Don't'
come here, Colonel, and send away your orderlies; we
will have nothing to do with them.' The orderlies
were sent tn'the rear, and jbe Lieut.-Colonel, with his
Brigade Major, made we O. every argument to induce
the deluded men to return to their duty, and, as it was-
at first supposed, with some effect, but while Colonel
'Davies was ape acing to one of the men 'apart, a heed-
dart, who appeared one of the leaden, came forward
and seized the bridle of tfie Colorters horse, calling nut
in Hindostanee to kill him, and dressing his pistol, fired
at him; the ball went in at his left side, and came out
on the other, just below the rib; the horse reared, and'
he fell off, when the nh3le body of mutineers fired at
him, then attacked him with their swords, by which he
received eleven sabre-sounds. At this moment the Ist
Regiment, under the European Commandant, were ap-
proaching the parade; they immediately charged the
mutineers, and the whole, with the exception of three
or four men who threw down their arms (and have been
secured), were cut down. The Officer commanding, re
ceived a sabre cut en his sword arm, and three or four
men of the 3d Regiment, which also charged, sere
wounded. It appears the Havildar (the ringleader),
with two others, got into a pagoda, and for some time.
kept two of the Europe in Officers and one or two ethers
at bay; at last they made a rush and dispatched them.
The Natives by whim Lieut.-Colonel Davies was be-
loved) treated the body of the ringleader with every
' possible indignity after his death. The exact cause of
this melancholy trtnsa tion has not transpired ; but a
strict investigation is now on foot, and the cause will
be shortly known. Colonel Davies only survived his
woundruntil the mr-rning of the Bth, when he expirrd,
on which occasion the Resident addressed a General
Order, on the part of the Nizam's Government, to his
army, in which he expresses the deepest sorrow at the
loss of so valuable an Officer, his grief and indignation
at the outrage committed on the deceased by the
insubordination of the military ruffians, and trusts this
'eeling will be echoed in the breast of every Officer dud
' soldier in the Nizam's army. Another lamentable
transaction, of a similar nature, but fortunately less
fatal in its result, has occurred, in Trichinopoly in the
attempt to assassinate Major Smythe of the Sth Native
Cavdiry, by one of the troops 01 the tegintent. The
wretched man who made the' attempt is stist4d4o.lse
deranged. It appears on the 18th dr/insanity followed
the Major off the exercising ground, and having ad-
dressed a few words to him fired-off-his pistol, which,
however, did not take effect ; he immediately fired off
a second, which tinfErtunately took place, and lodged
in the Major's shoulder blade, from which it has not
been extracted. The wretch then fled to the top of
some rocks near the cantonments, but was pursued by
nearly the whole regiment. Cornet Lord and Lieute-
nant Cragie were the first persons who came up with
hint, and, upon attempting to secure him, he fired, and
grazed Cornet Lord's head. He then produced another
pistol, and was in the act of cockirig, when Lieutenant
Cragie shot him dead on the spat. We ate happy to
state, upon good authority, that Major Smytlre'swround,
though severe, it not attended with much danger.
The following is an extract of a letter from Bolarum.
dated 24th of May :

" Since I last wrote to you Major Wallace, commanding the 2tl
Madras Cavalry, stationed at this place, was shot through' the head
by one of his troopers. The man had shot one of his comrades,
who bad offended him, and managed to conceal himself till parade
time, when be rushed out with a pistol, and as he ran past Major.
Wallace, shot him. He re-loaded, and when pursued, shot himself
in the neck, but not dangerously. Major Wallace died two hoses
afterwards:

. We are concerned to find that the . ciders has spin
made its appearance in the Bengal district% and that
the native community of Calcutta, Belascore, and Jay-
pore, are not only afflicted with that dreadful epidemic,
but al elabouring under the plague of fever, small pox,
and measles. The excitement respecting the stamp
duties at Calcutta appears to increase. The Sheriff had
advertised a public meeting of the inhabitants of Cal-
cutta, to discuss the important question; the Govern-
ment authorities immediately took the alarm, and for-
