LONDON, MARCH Ia, lS42.
The East India Cotton Experimental
Establishment at Surat, in the Presidency
of Bombay, is done up, and the Americans
who are gagged to conduct il are now on
their way home. The Bombay Times OF
the 22d and 2Slh of January, contains some
curious correspondence on the subject
from Mcssrs. J. Mccullough, II. M'Cul-
lough and Thomas Wolfe, planters from
the United States, and the authorities.
From calm review of all that appears,
and from a careful and minute investiga-
ton Of other circumstances, cannot but
arrive at the conclusion that the above
named gentlemen have been treated with
gross incivlity and positive harslness.
There arc concurrent facts, and local cor
roboralion, which warrant an implicit be-
lief in the statement put forth by those
gentlcmcn; and as both in India, and in
this country, the same has been respect
fully received, ming led with deep regret at
the result, | shall give you its more impor-
tant passage.
"When We left our homes and came to
this country, under engagements from the
honorable East india Company, we did so
in the full hope that success would attend
our exerlions, and to that success we were
not only led to look, but bound in our
agreements to calculate on it for our remu.
neration. We very naturally thought we
never should have been sent here to grow
cotton, without having every facility plac
ed atour disposal which would be neces-
sary to accomplish the object aimed at.
We were not long in Bombay, however,
before we discovered the error in our con-
clusions. We were not to be allowed TO
exercise our own judgment on some points
that pertain materially to the success of
our experiment. We wished TO sec some
thing ofthe country, its different soils, and
the agricultural people, before settling
down. The principal collector in Surat,
and the superintendent appointed by him,
had these matters in their own hands y
In resigning VIC believe that we best con-
suit, not only our own interest, but that Of
the Hon. East India Company: for crampcd
as we are, we can do no good"

lha, Haleck Tustcnuggce has comein once
more, in order to have all interview with
Col. Worth. Only few hours elapsed
after the late battle in the neighborhood
of the Ocklawaha. His warriors suffered
severely in that engagement, and he now
proposes to surrepder. He has again
gone out 10 bring his people in, some slS-
ty or seventy, including at least twenty
warriors. Col. Worth has given him the
assurance that he shall be made Chief,
which, together with some other induce
mcnts held out to him, leaves no room to
doubt that he is sincere. In short, he has
been hotly pursued for months past by our
indefaligable troops, and is reduced to ex'
tremity.

ct are still at the South, but they have not
been near the settlements, nor committed

RICE CsMeNT.-'rhis useful and elegant
cement, which is beautifully white, and dries
almost transparent, is made by mixing rice
flour intimately with cold water, and then gent

this cement will sooner separate i'll their own
substance than at the joining. 1t is therefore
an excellent cement iii the preparation of
curious paper articles, as tea trays, ladies'
