Cer.curr.►, Nov. 10.—Our intelligence from the
ittlerior of India speaks favourably of the general
~snquillity of the country, and the satisfaction of

Major Wilson has also earned his portion of mili-

strong post, seated on ilia beaks of a river, about 23
miles to the S.E. of Nsgpore. The details of this

CA LCUTT %. Oct. 20.— We have been favoured with
a private :otter from this quarter, which states, that
00,10 the coentry is in a state of quiet at present,
the revolting disposition of the People is likely to
furnist• siltscieut Deception for the troops in the
neighbourhood. Appah Sahib is said to be enl'ecting
1 is forces in all directions, and I parties of his
Lilhrients have secured themselves in forts and strong
holds at but a shoot distance from limier,. A de-
tachment of troops had gone out against these, bet
accounts of the success of their operations had not
remelted. Major Bowen, of the Madras Establish-
ment, had killed about 300 of the Goands and Arabs
who were in the Iteitool Valley, and still limber
skirmishes were likely to take place before perasamset
trampling weeld be restored.

pose*, anti alio his half-pay of 600 francs, which

Captain Pearce received ender t►e title of a mom-
pence had been rescinded, and he only enjoyed half-
pay, agreeably to his rank.
On this subject, the Reporter observed,that in Ibis
CUM the law, in its application, was in opposition to
the Charter. The King, in that solemn deed, had
guaranteed to all Frenchmen the pensions and ranks
which they enjoyed. The half 'My of that premise
had been fulfilled towards the Petitioner ; if his half.
pay, which represented active pay according to hie
rank, could not be received additiou to the pension
of which he was previously in full enjoyment, the Pe.
titioner should be placed on active service, or it could
ont be denied they were unjust towards him. The
Commission therefore recommended that the Petition
should be referred to the Commissions( Ezpeoditere,
which was adopted by the Chamber.

Faacgroar, Aenlr. I.—The public mind at this
moment is eaclesively occupied relative to the infor-
mation obtained from the in of M. de Kotzebue,
Lefore his death, and the private motives whkh could
actuate him to commit the crime. All that is posi-
tively kuown is, that the a in, according to his
nun statement, quitted Jean early en the moraine of
'be 9.h March ; end from thence he proceeded to
Erlangen, where he requested a passport for the
herders of the Maine. lie set off from Erlangen on
the 18th, sud arrived port on lb. evening of the 22d
Ist Lorrh, bye leagues from Minimise, on the other
of the Rhine. At birch he hired • peasant's
cart, and arrived at Manikin+ on the, 211, at 10 o'clock
in the morning. The wretch displayed much tempo.
sure, even after committinic the deed ; be has Mono no
symptoms of repentance whatever. Ilis answers, which
be has been permitted to make in writing, as far as
was consistent with his enfeebled condition, state,
M. de Kotzebue deserved death ; that be bad no pri-
vate revenge against hint; but that for a long time he
had resolved upon Ms death, on account of the erimos
of which he had been guilty against Germany; that
he was tranquil because he bad ascended ; that he
had no accomplice, and that his crime could only be
imputed to himself. 'lbis fanatic appeared to feel no
other regret than for the relatives of his victim.—
Yesterday, his attendants were compelled to tie his
hand., to pr him from tearing off the bandages
and opening his wounds. his caterer is agreeable;
and all the information which has bees collected with
respect to his conduct before the amass/seine is
very favourable.
The body of M. de Kotzebue has been opened ;
all the organs were found in as sound • state es those
of a young man; it is therefore presumed that he
might have heed to an trimmed age. Ile was 87
years old, end professed t►e Lutheran relights.
