DEAR SIR:-
Having observed III your paper notice OF Gene
raj Harlan late Aid de Camp, &c nc. to Dost Ma
honmed, Ameer Of Cabul, beg TO afford you an
opportunity OF correcting the errors which have been
inadvertently promulged by the very extensive cir
cuation of your gazette.
The assertion is untrue that the British captured
him and sent him back TO Europe" General H. re-
NAMED several months in Cabul subsequent, TO the
flight OF the Ancer, in unrestraincd intercourse with
the officers Of the l}rish army, and had several in
tervews with Sir w. III. McNaghten and Sir Alex
andeI Burnes. stipulation IN the treaty between
prohibited the latter from entertaining foreigners
and mentions expressly g Americans" Thus the
hing restrained i'll the dispensation of his fa-
vors, and prevented from comforting upon General
H. the honors and rewards due to the successful re-
suit of tram of diplomacy which restored the all
Gent regime, although not precisely M the General
and the Shah miendcd-that is. BY the occupation
noinally restored To hs throne was still prisoner
IN the hands of the British, and the General, poascs-
sing the ublquity which falls TO the lot of those
whose genius ensures success, has contaminated bv
by the application of time, wealth, and inteec the
result no less coveted by the King than desired by
himself. General H., AZ you say, IL now in this
to which he returned after absence of
nearly twenty ycars-a period of time full of the
nance of life, account of which his friends are
deeply Interested in receiving from his own PEN
General H. has never been known or he(5d 10 say,
AZ your article states, that, with military leader,
the Ahghans could ovcrrun all India and China Gre
ate new Moghul Empire, rival Genghis Khan, and
drive the British entirely from the East" His know
ledge of oriental affairs has often proved strangely
prophetic to u.s. who are not 30 well informed, and
friends, the result which has attended the late
policy of England in Central Asia. Though hiso-
~ will tell you the Ahghsns have often plundered
Delhi, the capital of India, the words above quoted
ces. He is not man who would misrepreent
acts or express them in language unbecoming an
eloquent, calm and clear minded orator. My expe-
renee, which il by no means contracted. has lever
brought me in company with II more agreeable and
individual than our distinguished fellow
citizen. Personally acquainted with all nations,
posse ssed of unbounded experience Of in every
condition OF life, long the companion Of Princes
and himself the Governor of provinces and ruler of
armies, still with the kindly feelings Of benignant

are blessings to America
In connection with the above we give the follow
ing extract from a letter of the Paris correspond
ent of the London Times" published in that pa
per OH the 4th Of August last =
The intelligence from India brodght by the last mail
mcagre and incomplete IT, suggests very painful
,cipstions for the tranquility and safety Of portion Of
the British Empire for which am peculiarly interested
mean our Indian possessions 1t suggess to me tho
cessity Of making known circumstance Of very sgni6
cant character that has occurred here Towards tho
close Of last year there arrived in raris from India
General Harlan who has boon aid de camp and chief Of
the saG to Dost AIahommed during considerable time
and had had under his command corps Of 10 900
He 10 deemed man Of talent, and Of unbounded know
ledge in Indian affairs.
General Harlan is American, who arrived some ave
and years ago in India in the capacity of 6rs Sur
Company 1t is NOT necessary that trace him up his
attaining the rank above mentioned but shall observe
that his arrival here last winter autumn created
sensation the object Of his visit suspected and in
deed said TO bea poltsa one. Like oil American cit
OF respectability he introduced TO King Louis
Philippe by General Cas- the American minister and re-
much commune alton with NJ. Theirs, uhen Prime Min

Anbassador)-on, is hardly necessary that say, the
subject Of British dominion in India
"Thc correctness mcorrectness of this latter d.
" prove but this can aver on unquestonsble authority
that General Harlan has at the special invitation OF the
Russian government, proceeded 70 st. retersburgh.

All this is very well, bu, is there not some little
exaggcration about the Generals influence Atany
rate let US have all the facts in the matter. The
General has undoubtedly been TO Atishanlstan, ca
bull Candahar, and all parts of India within and In
dia beyond the Ganges. But what the extent Of
his power and influence there, it is impossible
to tell at present At any rate he is writing book
and of course he will tell nothing but the truth in
that let us have it as soon ~ possible, with an the
details Of tia, interesting country, Afshanstan, and
ITS singular inhabitants; and plates and maps, and
plans and diagrams explanatory Of the whole region
and race
