It is true those gentlemen called health-officers have ordered a few persons of tower circum- stances to fill in their tots-, so as to carry the water-out into the street, and which was mi mediately complied with ; but why not these of mbreVealth, where there is ten times more necessity, which if not. done shortly, must ine- vitably destroy the health of a number of fa- milies in that part of the city.

' Died, at Calcutta, on Tuesday evenivt- the 23d Pept. 1806, James Muruay, vm. late major in the service of Holkar. lie was a most amiable man, and an intrepid scl- diet, He had, during along career of ho- norable service, acquired a handso/ne fortune, and was on the eve of his departure t'> his native land, to enjoy in dignified repose the hard-earned fruit of Ids dangers and toil*. But, alas ! Death, whom he had so o.ieii faced, and never feared, by a sudden and unexpected attack on him, cut him off in. the prime of his days ; and on Wednesday morning he was committed, to the sib nt grave, a melancholy instance of the vanity of human expectations, possessions and ho- nors. Some of his late companions in nuns: attended his funeral and bedewed his- sod. with manly tears, warm from congenial and affectionate hearts. Major Murra3' wa* a native .of North- America. The ships of the United States laying in the river had their tags hftisttd half'mast, during the day afl a tribute of res- pect to the memory of their brave country- man. Tin,' following circumstances relating to this gentleman iiave been communicated to . the editors of this Gazette for . publication, by a gentleman who arrived here in the Ju- liana from Calcutta. " Major Murray was a native of the stats of Hhode-Islatid : ms real name was Lilli- bridge ; why he assumed the name of Mur- ray is "not known. Jit an early age he left his relations in consequence of some ill «reatuieni he had received from some one of them, and- went to sea, after a number of? voy ages he arrived at Tranquebar on the coast of 'Corommdel about the year 1790j where he .formed the resolution of go- ing into the interior for the pnpose of entering into the service of some one of the petty princes, who at that time were particulatly desirous of havihg JCitfojeans as; officers, to command thtir troops. This re- solution he accomplished in c, ir.pany with another person, (whose nanu is iwt known) with some difficulty, as tiny i.ad pass the posts tlien possessed by the English, who were extremely vigilant to preiem Eu- ropeans going into the coui.t-y. T.'ie lite winch Lilli'jridge now led required a consti- tution as robust as h.. possessed, an invin- cible courage, and a presence of mind whicli no danger could dispel. It is.well .known what species of petty warfare has for many years existed almost unremittingly in the vast peninsula of India : the continual jar- ring of interests, the jealousy of various small powers of each, other,Joi,.ed with the intrigues of the Europeans who have alter- nately held possessions on the coast, have made that unhappy country the seat of ra- pine, desolation and war. It was m the ser- vice of the Mahrattas that Liilibridge bee me noted for his superior bravery. With thesu pecple he continued neatly i3 years, travel's. e tountry from Cape Cciiiorin to the frontiers ol Persia. In the sei vice, of Hol- kar, the celebrated chief of the Mahrattas, Liilibridge, who nas .iOw called Murray, be- came first known to the ''ritl'-li, by saving,, at the most eminent bav.aid of his own hi'** tiie lives of some of their ofhceis who had fallen into Holkar's hands, and who had or- dered them to be put to the sword. Jit was shortly after this business that lie quitted the service of Holkar, and raised a number of cavalry in his own name, with which he took possession of a district of country. Before he attained this, he had experienced every reverse that such an undertaking could be subject to, being at one time at the head of only 7 or 8 men not more than half arm- ed. When the war broke out between the* British and Scindeah, in which Holkar as- sisted the Liter, Murray immediately pro- claimed the British government in the pave of the country where he was, and joined lord Lake with about 7C0Q horse. It was at that period that marquis Wellesley issued the proclamation recalling all British sub- jects from the service of the native princes, under the penalty, in case they did not come in, of being treated as traitors, should they- afterwards be made prisoners. Murray could not be estimated as one included iii the pro- clamation, which by those whom it did in- clude, and who could escape from their dif- ferent situations, was immediately obeyed. Several in the service of Holkar, who wera so unfortunate as not to get away, were mur- dered by him. " Murray, coming in under dirTe-rant cir- cumstances from the others, was treated by the British general with greater consideration ; and there was seldom a dangerous service in which he was not employed—remaining stilt with the command of the cavalry he brought with him. At the siege of Bhunpnre,where the British army lost nearly 10,000 men, ia four attempts to storm, Aiurray was in con- tinual action, and obtained the character of the best partisan officer in the army. Hol- kar was outside of the British with seventy or eighty thousand horse, and the signal of assault on the fortress by the British, was the signal for the attack on the outside. The events of that siege are but little known, as the British kept them secret. It was cer- tainly a most bloody business, and shewed but little generalship, or even common sense, on the part of lord Lake.* " At the conclusion of the war, Murray, who had accumulated a handsome fortune, determined on returning home, and for this purpose remitted his funds to Calcutta, and repaired there himself. He was but littla satisfied with the rewards he had met from the British goverij^ieiit in India, for ser- vices which were certainly, of eminent uti- lity. He had been made a nominal major in the service, and received permission to return to America, with half pay. Ht» declared to the writer of these partialis.) s, that it was his intention to return again to India, if he could get a few brave fellows to join him ; a few such, landing on an un- frequented part of the coast, and getting into the interior among the Mahrattas, would be sufficient to shake the British em- pire in India to its centre. It is.to the cha- racter of this man and two or.three other Americans who have signalized themselves. in India, that we owe the honor of being included o, the treaties between the Biitisii government and Scindeah and Holkar, by one of tne articles of which, the two latter expressly stipulate to engage no Americans i;.' their service. " A few days before Murray was to rm- bark for America, a fall ft cm his horse caus- ed an intestinal rupture, wliich, being ignc- rantly treated, ended in a mortification in hi* bowels, and -in death •'Major Murray was of ruldlh.g -Utu.e, |
