MADRAS.

FROM the Madras papers which we have received to the 2d of September last, we learn that a treaty has been concluded be tween our Government and the Peishwa; but no details are given as to the stipulated enactments. Our readers will however see, from an extract of a most interesting private letter which we have inserted, how far the Peishwa may be like ly to abide by this, or any other treaty, when an opportunity offers for infraction. He is represented by our correspondent as a most insidious and sanguinary character, and we much doubt whether our amicable relations with him can be of long conti

nuance.

It is stated in private accounts, that Mr. Elphinstone had concluded a treaty with the Peishwa on the most advantageous terms, and that the greatest satisfaction was manifested by the natives of the ceded districts in being emancipated from one of the most odious and oppressive yokes that ever disgraced the annals of eastern tyranny.

Letters from Camp state, that the ad vance of Col. Pritzler's force, under the command of Maj. Newell, has taken possession of the important fortresses of Darwan and Kooshoul. The inhabitants of that part of the country appear quite delighted at the idea of being taken under British protection. The rains had set in with great violence, and the troops had suffered much from wet weather.

We have been favoured with the following interesting account of the attack and fall of the fortified Pettah and Ghurry of Doosannah, 10th July, 1817..::

"A detachment, consisting of four galloper guns, the 3d regt. Light Cavalry,

a battalion of the 22d regt. Nat. Inf. and some Mysorean horse, under the command of Lieut. Col. R. Scott, marched from Brigadier General Doveton's camp at Outraen, in Kandeish, on the 3d of July, for the purpose of dispersing a body of the insurgents (who had lately thrown off their allegiance to the court of Poonah) who might be found in arms.

On the 9th of July intelligence was received, that a party who were engaged in the siege of a neighbouring town, hearing of the approach of the British detachment, had occupied the fort and pettah of Doosannah. Doosannah is situated on the right bank of the Borah river, a tributary stream to the Taptee

"One of the chiefs of the bund, or insurrection, after having made every preparation, fled to the southward, entrusting the defence of the place to 300 Arabs.

"A little after sunrise on the 10th, our troops crowned the heights, and were immediately fired upon by the garrison. The line fell back a few paces, and were completely sheltered by the swell of the ground, while the colonel proceeded to reconnoitre the works, which he did most minutely, and decided upon the plan of attack. The troops were then permitted to refresh themselves, and during this interval the tent poles were converted into scaling ladders.

"Every arrangement having been made, and the troops at their different posts, a flag of truce was dispatched to the fort, but being repeatedly fired upon, the signal for attack was given. The four galloper guns were run up, so as to eufilade two faces of the pettah wall, and also to keep down the fire from the ghurry, on which were placed a three and a two-pounder, besides jinjals. After a few rounds the guns were advanced, and there being no great supply of ammunition, the infantry were ordered to escalade the wall, which they did in the most gallant style, under a heavy fire and greatly exposed, the walls of the ghurry being forty-six feet in height.

"In less than half an hour the pettah and three gates were carried, and a conple of six-pounders ready to be run up to the inuer gate, when the Arabs demanded a parley, and after some delay capitulated, and were marched prisoners to the British encampment. The vivacity of the attack, the gallantry of the troops, together with the voice and the tolerable practice made with the guns, seem to have thrown the garrison into a panic; for the gate of the ghurry was excessively well hanked by loopholes; aud the ascent to it being by steps, many more lives must have been sacrificed in the attack. Even had this gateway been forced, an inner staircase led to a door placed at right ans

gles to the entrance; and this must have been burst open, ere access could be had to the interior of the citadel, or ghurry. It would have been almost impossible to have carried a gun up to this higher door or wicket.

"Our loss was trifling, considering the great strength of the place; five Sepoys were killed, or have since died of their wounds;, fifteen wounded; two horses killed, and two wounded."

July 15.-On Tuesday seven or eight native christians were indicted for an assault and riot in one of the capuchin churches in the Black Town. The trial occupied the court, during two days, in the course of which considerable evidence (which appeared irrelevant to the question) was offered, as to the title of the church in question, as to ecclesiastical jurisdiction, and to other points of the discipline of the Romish church; but the prisoners were found guiity of the riotous assault.
