| His Majesty has seen with regret, the inter-
ruption oftranquility in India, by the unprovolS-
ed aggression and eNtravagant pretensious of the
Burmese government, which rendered hostile
operations against that state unavoidable.
1t is however, satisfactory to find that none of
the other native powers have manifested any un
friendly disposition, and that the bravery and con-
duct displayed by the forces already employed
against the enemy, afforded the most favorable
prospect of successful termination of the CON
| test.
Gentlemen Of The House Of Commons,
| His Majesty has directed to inform YOU
that the estimates of the year will be forthwith
laid before YOU.
The state of his Maiesty's Indian possessions,
and circumstances connected with other parts
of his Nlajesty's foreign domnons, will render
some augmentation in his military establishment
indispensable. His Majesty, however has the SIN
cere qualification of believing, that, notwith-
standing the increase of expense arising out of
tins augmentation, such is the fiouriShng comb
ton, and progressive Improvement of the reve-
nue., that il will still be in your power, without
efecting public credit, to give additional tacil-
ties to the national industry, and to make a for
Their reduction in the burthens of his people.
Ny Lords and Gentlemen.
His Majesty commands us 10 inform YOU, that
his Majesty continues TO receive from his Allies,
and generally from all Princes and States, assur-
ances of their unabated desire to maintain and
cultivate the relations of peace with his Majesty
and with each other, and that 1t is his Malesty's
constant endeavour to preserve the general tran
guilty.
| Thenegociations whichhave been so long car
ried on, through his Maiestys Ambassador at
ConstaniuoPle, between the Emperor of Russia
and the Ottoman Porte, have been brought 10 an
amicable issue.
Ais Majesty lias directed to be laid before YOU
copies of arrangements which have been entered
into with the Kingdoms of Denmark and Hano-
yer, for improving the commercial intercourse
between those states and the United Kingdom.
treaty, having for its object the more effec-
tual suppression of the slave trade, has been
concluded between his Majesty and the King of
Swedcn copy of which treaty as soon as the
ratiication shall have been exchanged his Ma
| Jesty will direct to be laid before YOU
Some difficulties have arisen with respect to the
ratification of the treaty for the same object,
which was negotiated last year between his Ma
Jesty and the United States of America. These
difficulties, however, his Majesty trusts, will not
| finally impede the conclusion ofso beneficial an
arrangement.
! In conformity to the declarations which have
been repeatedly made in his Maesty's name his
Majesty has taken measures for confirming bv
treaties the commercial relations already subsist-
America which appear TO have established their
separation from Spain. So soon as these trea-
ties shall be completed his Majesty will direct
copies of them to be laid before you.

the bies-l q of Providence, a main source of
strength and power to this country, contributes
IN no less degree to the happiness and cyiliza-

SYRIA, Dec. 5.-We have Just received fresh
advices from the Alorca. After the bloody bat
tie which took place between Colocotroni aud
the body ofthe government troops IN which the
former had 300 men killed, the latter pursued
this General and caught him agan-he was
completely defeated, and after having been
abandoned by the greater of his soldiers he took
refuge in the mountains with small number of
his men, accompanied by the General Nikitas,
the greatest number OF WiSse troops also passed
to the side of the government. Thus it is ev
dent the latter has the upper hand. Gen. Sta-
co, of CoIocotroni's party, was taken prisoner in
this last affair and executed To these success
Sc which the government have gained, we may
add another advantage, viz:--There arrived in
Napoh de Romanla veSsclfrom the Phiiltelle-
mas with about 100000 from the loan. Ano-
Their vessel with ammunition, cannons &c. has
also arrived. The Greek vessels are in port,
but a portion was tOmal1e sail to meet the Egyp-
tian fleet. We understand that the Patriot Var
valli has promised to build the Island of Ipsara
at his own expense. Colocoroni'5 son was kill
ed in the battle last mentioned. The Egyptian
and Turkish fleets under Ibrahim Pacha are at
the island of Charchi, near Rhodes, and are said
to have made several attemps to gain the Island
Of Gambia, but were prevented by the vigilance
of the Greek vessels.
In Smyrna and in ihe capital, we continue to
enjoy the most uninterrupted tranquility. II.
