Extract of a Lotter trans Brigadier-General Sir J. Malcolm,
K.C.B. and K.1..4. to Lieatecnni-Grocrel Sir T. His:op.

The expectation I entertained from the first, that
Jeswunt Row Bhow would surrender, As not been
disappointed. That Chief yesterday came into my
camp. and gave himself up, avowing that he did so
unconditionally, in the hope that his voluntary sub-
mission would recommend him to the forgiveness end
liberal consideration of his Sovereign, .Dowlet Row
Scindiah, and the British Government.
I demanded from Jeewunt Row Show, the moment
he arrived in camp, orders for the delivery to the
British Government of the forts of Dealibur and Cu-
multiere. By a letter I have received from General
Maio, who is advancing into Newer, the former
had surrendered previous to the arrival of orders, hat
that for the evacuation of .Cumulnere will be in time,
and may, I hope, prevent the necessity of an attack
spew-that fortress.
The whole of this part of Mewar has been for
some time sulject to the depredations of Duleel
Khan, who, residing at this place, which is a jag.
beer of the family of Ameer Khan, has for eight
years past laid the neighbouring country ender con-
tribution. Ti this Chief, who had on the represen-
tation of Capt. Caulfield separated his interests from
those of Jeswunt Row Slew, a few days before the
latter was attacked--- {the perticelars of this en.
gagement have not been -officially received)—l sent
a message, with an offer of service for him and his
followers; and at the same time plainly informed
him, that if he did not accept it, be must disband all
his followers and leave the country. otherwise he
should be treated as a freebooter. Ile first sent a
party of horse, and afterwards came himself into
my camp, and accepted the offer I made him of ser-
vice. Both men and horses are of an excellent de-
scription. They wit! be useful recruits to the Poona!)
ausiliary horse, and taking them into pay has al-
ready bad the effect of giving confidence to the in-
habitants of this quarter, who are returning to vil-
lages which, owing to these and other lawless free-
booters (in the employ of Jeswunt Row Dhow), have
been deserted for years.
