THE past month has been productive of no intelligence of public interest from India of a later date then that given in our last; and as we have incorporated, among the general articles of our present Number, such extracts from the principal Indian Papers as remained unpublished on our hands, it has been unnecessary to offer any General Summary of News,-the details of particular intelligence being all given under the several classified heads to which they respectively belong. SECOND POSTSCRIPT. The papers brought by the Indian Chief are to the 4th of July. The discussion on the Stamp Act continued to agitate the public mind at Calcutta. On the 3d, by the concession of the Court as a favour, the right being denied, counsel was heard against the Regulations. The whole of the first day's sitting was occupied by the speech of Mr. Winter. A meeting, for taking into consideration the erection of a monument to Lord Hastings, was to take place on the 9th of July. The ship John, Captain Dawson, from the Mauritius, and latterly from Covelong and Madras, salt-laden, struck on the western sea reef, June 30, and was totally lost. The Chief Officer, and twelve of her crew, reached the Honourable Company's ship Windsor, at the new anchorage that night. Captain Dawson, with two passengers, (Lieut. Warren, of his Majesty's service, from Madras, and a surgeon, not named, from the Isle of France,) with six of the ship's crew, were left on the wreck. The boats of the Windsor had gone to their assistance, with what success was not known. The General Palmer has just arrived from Madras, whence she sailed on the 15th July, bringing intelligence of the decease of Sir Thomas Munro, the late Governor of that Presidency. Sir Thomas was about embarking on board his Majesty's ship Tamar for England, which ship sailed two days prior to the General Palmer. It forms a somewhat remarkable coincidence that his death occurred about the time that his successor, Mr. Lushington, left this country. It is understood to have been determined by the Board of Control, that a new Presidency, to be termed that of Central India, shall be forthwith established. INDEX TO THE FIFTEENTH VOLUME.
