From the London Times Of March s.
The Affairs Of India.

The contents of the Indian mail will have ap.
prised our readers that the British empire in
the east is no longer at peace. AS far as an
exchange of cannon shots can proclaim the fact
a Burmese war has actually commenced, with
little disparagement indeed, to our arms,
but with very unsatisfactory prospects for our
tranquility BY the reports Immediately pre-
ceding, it had been understood that the court of
Ava had consented to make the prescribed
amends for its aggressions on British subjects,
and to give the desired security for more civil
demeanor The obnoxious governor of Ran
COON had been superseded by orders from the
capital, and the governor Of Prone was installed
in his place, with powers to adjust all differ
ences between the Indian government and his
master The truly oriental turn communicated
to these proceedings has been already described
in our columns. After thus obtaining short
time for preparation, the new governor gave
expression to his policy by acts of deliberate
insult, which it was impossible to overlook, and
rs the vessels of the British squadron were cor
voying the merchantmen from the river they
were fired upon from the stockades or batteries
of the town.
The salute was returned by such discharge
from the frigate's broadside, and such storm
of shells from the Hermes steamer, that in a
very short time the defences were demolished
and some 800 Burmese, as it is believed, left
dead in the ruins. The river ports were then
declared to be in state of blockade, and Com
modore Lambert Immediately repaired to Cal,
cutta to report his proceedings and receive the
further instructions of government in this new
conjuncture. 1t was thought impracticable to
dispatch any new expedition during the season
still available for hostities in these parts and
his Burmese majesty, therefore, on this suppo-
sition, would be exempted till November next
from any retribution more serious than block
ade of Rangoon.
