for marching to the frontiers Of the Punjaub. The
LIST regiment Bombay Europeans, her Maesty's 18th
regiment, and the 4th rifles, Sd and llth regiments
Of Bombay native infantry, were under orders for
starting in the steamers from Bombay for huna-
chez, en- route for Scinde, TO reinforce the Selnde
army.
BonBAY, TINES orFIcE, Saturday, ~ a. m, jan
uary "A despatch arrived this morning from the
goyernor-general from Ferszepore, which mentions
that battle had taken place. Our forces had storm
ed one of the enemy's positions, and were prepar-
ing 10 storm the other wheA the despatch left. Sir
II. Hardnge led the centre, Sir IL. Cough the right,
and Sir John Litter the left. The slaughter was
very great Farther particulars have not yet reach
cd US. The steamer Victoria had made considers
ble way out Of the harbor when the above despatch
arrived, when she was Immediately recalled, and re-
turned into port about half-past 10 O'Clock.
The despatch is dated from Umballa, the 26Ih OF
December
IL o'clock.-The news is that the battle took
place at Ferozepore; tho goVernor-general led the
centre, the commander-In'ehief the right, and Dir
John Litter the lett ,
The centre and right kept their ground well; the
left was hard pressed.
There is no doubt of this, us Mr.. Cochrane, the
barrster has Just come from Recommendations,
where the governor announced publicly the news.
This intelligence relieves US from all apprehen-
sions relative to the garrison OF Ferozepore and TO
the positions Of the army. The Sikhs lost IS guns
The fighting was for three days, day and night.
The British occupied the Sikh camp.
Noon.--Anolher sepor is that the Sikh force oil
more than 50 900, and $50 pieces Of artillery, IN
vaded the British possessions on the 2lst December
A battle was the immediate result, which lasted till
the 23d, and was not over when the express left
The loss was great on both sdes, but the enemy
suffered most and lost IS pieces of cannon. 1t Is
also said thai Sir John Ltler was forced TO retire
on the first attack, and that the enemy were only
routed on the advance of the encouragement and
the commsnder-in-chief No doubts were enter
tanned that the enemy would shortly be driven
across the Sutlej. The steamer is about 10 start.
