The Commander-in-Chief also requests that Major Agnew, Deputy Adjutant-General of the army, who was immediately attached to his person throughout the action, will accept his earnest thanks for the services he rendered to him on the occasion. The Commander-in-Chief cannot conclude this order, without expressing the deep regret he feels that the glorious and decisive victory they have to beast, has cost their country and the service the lives of so many gallant officers and soldiers. The names of Lieutenant Coleman, Madras European Regiment, Lieutenant Macleod, his Majesty's Royal Scots, and Lieut. Glen, 1st. Battalion 3d, or Palamcottah Light Infantry, and the brave soldiers who so gallantly fell in action, will long be remembered by his Excellency and the army with mingled feelings of pride and regret, and his Excellency anxiously trusts that the wounded officers and men will soon be restored to the exercise of their professional duties and the enjoyment of their health, to which event the Commander-in-Chief looks with the more confidence, from the zeal, ability, and humane attention of Mr. Superintending Surgeon Annesley, and the Officers of the Medical Staff, to whom, and to the superintending care of their com manding officers, his Excellency confides them. Mr. Superintending Surgeon Annesley will accept the Commander-in-Chief's best acknowledgments for the able arrangements he has made, and the prompt assistance he afforded to the wounded. Extra Batta to be issued immediately to all the European troops in camp, on the occasion of the victory gained over the army of Molhar Row Holkar, by the divisions of the army of the Deekan, under his Excellency the Commander-in-Chief's personal command, and a zeeafut of one rupee per man, to be immediately drawn on abstract from the Paymaster, by the officers commanding corps and detachments, for each fighting man, European and Native.

Copy of a Despatch from Mr. Jenkins, Resident at the Court of the Rajah of Berar, to Mr. Adam, Secretary to the Governor-General, dated Nagpoor, Dec. 30, 1817. SIR, I have the honour to acquaint you, for the information of the Most Noble the GovernerGeneral, that the city of Nagpore was this day evacuated by the Arabs and other troops occupying it, on terms requested by them; and that the British troops obtained possession at about half-past two p. m. when the British standard, hoisted on the Palace, was saluted with twenty-one guns from the battery. This event may be considered to complete our military operations in this quarter, with the exception perhaps of having to disperse some small parties of horse. Many of the principal people had already come in, and the rest are now flocking to the Residency. Proclamations have also been issued throughout the country in the Rajah's name and my own, which will, I have no doubt, render every thing tranquil. I have the honour to be, &c. R. JENKINS, Resident.

Committee, that possession of that impor tant position has been obtained without the loss of a single man. The operation appears to have been conducted in a manner highly creditable to the Officer commanding the troops employed on the occasion. Extract of a Letter from the First Assistant to the Political Agent, to the GovernorGeneral, dated Mandissoor, 7th Jan. 1818. The victory obtained over the army of Mulhar Row Holkar, at Maheid pore, on the 21st ult, produced the conclusion yesterday evening of a Treaty, calculated to prevent further inconvenience to the British Government, from the anarchy which has lately prevailed in that state. All the Pindarries have been driven into one quarter, and are now in the vicinity of Johud. The force under the command of Sir W. G. Keir, in co-operation with a detachment from this army, marched in pursuit from hence on the 3d instant: our divisions under the command of Major-Generals Donkin and Brown, are advancing in the same direction from the side of Bengal. The Durrahs of Kurreem Khaun and Wafsi Mahomed, are already much reduced by the pursuit they have suffered from the divisions of Major-General Donkin and LieutenantColonel Adams, and the whole must shortly be drawn further to the westward, or dispersed.

General Pritzler took up his ground on the 10th, three coss beyond Hingungaum, marching for Kurrah Nullah; his encampment on the 10th was about 14 coss from that place; so that, if we suppose the Peishwa marched 8 coss on the same day, General Pritzler was 40 miles hehind him.

The following bulletin respecting the health of the Queen, have been issued since our last. "Queen's Palace, May 25.-The Queen has felt herself uniformly better since the last report. Her Majesty has slept well." 66 Queen's Palace, May 26.-The Queen continues much the same to-day as her Majesty was yesterday, having passed another good night." "Queen's Palace, May 27.-The Queen nas slept well, and continues better." "Queen's Palace, May 28.-The Queen eontinues better." Her Majesty's health is so much improved, that it is thought unnecessary to issue any more bulletins. Intelligence has been received of a favourable nature from Bombay, communicating the conclusion of a Treaty with Holkar, and the successful prosecution of the operations against the Pindarries. The Emperor of Austria has issued a Decree, conferring upon the son of Napoleon and of the Archduchess Maria Louisa, Duchess of Parma, the title of Duke of Reichstadt, and that of Highness, and grants ing to him the estate of that name, a considerable domain in Bohemia, heretofore forming part of the possessions of the Dukes of Mertzburg, but which has, by the effect of family arrangements, become the property of the Crown of Austria. An article from Stochholm gives an ac count of the corronation of Bernadotte, on the 11th instant; the ceremony of which was conducted with the usual splendour and magnificence. THE KING'S HEALTH. "St. Jame's Palace, Jung 7. "His Majesty has passed the last month ia a very tranquil manner, and continues to enjoy good bodily health, but his Majesty's disorder is unaltered." "H. Halford, "M. Baillie, "W. Heberden, "R. Willis." American papers to the 6th ult, have been received.-They state, on the authority of the master of a vessel arrived at Baltimore, that the independence of Chili had been formally declared in February; and that the Commissioners of the United States appointed to report the present state of South America had been received with every demonstration of joy in the River Plate. The President of the United States had issued a proclamation for carrying into effect the treaty concluded a few months siuce for accommodating all differences be tween Great Britain and that country, in regard to the naval forces respectively to be kept up on the Lakes. DEATH OF CHRISTOPHE.-By the New York papers and letters which we received pesterday, to the 11th of May, we learn that a letter has been received by a respect able mercantile house in Philadelphia from Port-au-Prince, dated the 13th of April, communicating on authority, said to be of the best description, the fact of Christophe's death. It will be singular enough should this report prove true, that both the rival sovereigns of Saint Domingo should have died within so short a period of each other. The circumstance is conjectured in these papers to be favourable to the pretensions of France; but on what rational grounds we are at a loss to perceive. The succession to the throne of one part of the island will probably be quite as peaceable and certain a thing as we have seen the succession to the presidency of the other. On Wednesday, June 3d, the anniversary of the London Infirmary, for curing Diseases of the Eye, founded in 1804, at No. 40, Charter-House Square, was held at the City of London Tavern, supported by the Members for Middlesex, and a numerous meeting of the Governors and friends of that valuable charity: William Mellish, Esq. M.P. in the Chair. The importance of the Institution to the Metropolis and the British Empire, and to the world, was exemplified by a statement of the number of patients admitted since its establishment in 1805, amounting to 35,050, by the many institutions founded upon its model, and by 420 pupils, many of them foreigners of eminence, having been instructed within its walls since the year 1808. The inadequacy of the present house to meet the claims of humanity, was explained after which, a subscription was entered into for general purposes, and to the building fund: it may therefore be unDecessary to state, that a subscriber of 104, 10s. is a Life Governor, and an annual subscriber of 11. Is. is an Annual One. : Subscriptions are received at Messrs. Perring's and Co. 72, Cornhill; and Matthew Heathfield, Esq. 138, Leadenhall-street. The arrival of Major Moodie, with despatches from Sir Hudson Lowe, at St. Helena, has excited some speculation in the city, coincident as it is with the account of the landing of a sailor at that island. The sailor had been one of the crew of the Northumberland man of war, which carried Buonaparte from Europe to St. Helena, and in that situation had formed an acquaintance with Buonaparte's servants. This sailor afterwards became one of the crew of an East Indiaman, which being at St. Helena, the sailor in the night contrived to swim from the vessel, clamber up the rocks, visit and pass some hours gaily among Buonaparte's domestics. This he did two several nights without being discovered or noticed : but in conversation on board of ship he boasted of his adroitness, and told confidentially to his messmates what he had done. Kaowledge of the transaction transpired; he was arrested, and examined, and conducted home to England in confinement; but it has not appeared that he had any sinister intention, or more in view than an innocent frolic. It is not believed Buonaparte knew of his being among his servants. However the occurrence is supposed to have demonstrated the possibility of Buonaparte's escape on board of any English vessel, the Captain of which might be induced for a bribe, or otherwise, to convey him to Europe or America. Indeed, it is reported several such circumstances have taken place at St. Helena, as have induced Sir Hudson Lowe to declare to the Government at home that if vessels are allowed to come to that island as at present, be cannot answer for the security of his prisoner. It is reported in Europ. Mag. Vol. LXXIII. June 1818. the city that Major Moodie is come home to make representations on this subject, and it is supposed another place of refreshment will be assigned for our East Indinman. SLAVE TRADE. We have received a copy of the Treaty concluded between this country and the King of the Netherlands, for the more effectual abolition of the Slave Trade, which was signed at the Hague on the 4th instant, and has been since duly ratified and exchanged. By the first article of this Treaty, the King of the Netherlands engages, within eight months from the present time, or sooner, if possible, to prohibit all his subjects, in the most effectual manner, from taking any part whatever in the trade of slaves; and, in the event of the measures hereafter to be adopted, being found insufficient for that purpose, his Majesty further engages to adopt such other ones as may appear best calculated to secure it. The second article provides for the right of mutual search, on the part of both the contracting Powers; and the third explains the mode in which that right shall be exercised. This, as the most important, we subjoin.-It enacts 1st. That such reciprocal right of visit and detention shall not be exercised within the Mediterranean Sea, or within the Seas in Europe lying without the Straits of Gibraltar, and which lie to the northward of the thirty-seventh parallel of north latitude, and also within, and to the eastward of the meridian of longitude twenty-degrees west of Greenwich. 2d. That the names of the several vessels furnished with such instructions, the force of each, and the names of their several Commanders, shall be from time to time, immediately upon their issue, communicated by the Power issuing the same to the other High Contracting Party. 3d. That the number of ships of each of the Royal Navies authorised to make such visit as aforesaid, shall not exceed the number of twelve, belonging to either of the High Contracting Parties, without the special consent of the other High Contracting Party being first had and obtained. 4th. That if at any time it should be deemed expedient that any ship of the Royal Navy of either of the two High Contracting Parties, authorised to make such visit as asoresaid, should proceed to visit any merchant ship or ships under the flag, and proceeding under the convoy of any vessel or vessels of the Royal Navy of the other High Contracting Party, that the Commanding Officer of the ship duly authorised and instructed to make such visit, shall proceed to effect the same in communication with the Commanding Officer of the Convoy, who, it is hereby agreed, shall give every facility to such visit, and to the eventual detainer of the merchant ship or ships so visited, and 3 Z |
