LONDON, July cot is not considered,
by persons IN this country competent 10
farm mi tho c,I,fnrf
that the war IN India, with Burmese, will
be OF long duration. The adequate pro
lection Of our frontier in that quarter, and
the making these restless people feel, what
they have never yet felt, our power, viii,
it is expected, bring them TO prompt sub
mission. The Burmese display their hos
tile disposition during the administration
OF the Marquis liastinS, it was then tho't
war must cnsue. There is not the slightest
apprehension entertained of Il rupture of
any of the native powers.
The Calcutta papers contain accounts
from the SyIhet frontier, TO the 30th of Fe
brnary, by which it appers that our loss in
the attack by the Burmese on the Stock
ade, was severe. 100 men of the 10th
were killed and wounded. The expedition
preparing at Madras WAS, 1t was proposed,
destined in the first instance, to Obtain
possession of Rangoon, where the troops
would be pat in cantonments until the
close of the rainy season. According to
the private letters from India, the war with
the BurmeB is not the only Que with which
we are threatened, as there stems reason

revolt, but it was supposed to be with pri-
witty of this sovereign. General Knox had
marched to attack him. One of the let
GERS says The Russians are quietly but
constantly approaching us. Some men
who have been at our north western sta
tons, and as far within our limits as DELHI,
made no secret that al establishment WAS
about being organized at Balk, which
you know is not very far from the limit of
Mr Elphinston's eXcul sion; so that the
Tx of their finding the route difficult, is all
II 'nesepse. The extraordinary, and in ma
ny cases mihute knowledge, which some
Russian officers were found t. possess with
respect tn the situation of our cantGnmepts
and the disposition of the regular troops
attract ii good dead Of attention., when some
of our Overland travellers fell in with their
advanced posts and lately we afe told the
military men, that the ad, antag,s of march
Ing boldly into our territory and taking up
cantonnclts amongst the Mahratta States
during the llot season, have been weighed
against the moie prudent plan of passing the
first year at Lahrco, and organizing the
