H ICKY 's BENGAL GAZETTE; OR THE ORIGINAL Calcutta General Advertiser. ———— [ VOL III ] A Weekly Political and Commercial Paper, Open to all Parties, but influenced by None. ———— 109 From Saturday February the 16ths to Saturday February the 23d 1782. [ No. V ] ———— SIR, AS you have repeatedly in- formed the public that your paper is open to all parties, tho' (of none myself,) still from mo- tives of justice, I wish everyman should receive that praise due to his merit. In the Government of Mr. Carteir, every Man of common observation must remember the very deplorable State of the Company's affairs in India, during his Administration, particu- larly Bengal, in debt in Europe (when he resigned the Chair in April) 1,700,00£. and to every person in this Country that would give them Credit for One hundred Rupees,—How was their poverty to be accounted for in those days? the first Grand object that struck any Man of common understanding, was the Gentleman placed at the head of Government, in every sense of the Word, totally disqualified for the Trust reposed in him; by an easy thoughtlessness of disposition, Contracts of every Kind was grant- ed to the Buffoons about him at most shameful rates, to the Manifest pre- judices of his Employers, and by permitting them scourges of humani- ty, the supervisors, to plunder the Innocent Industrious natives, on every occasion; squeezing and tearing their very vitals out for Money they want- ed to rob them of, which they were not able to pay; under the horrid appellation of Durbar Crutch, (Fees of Office) what was the Consequence of these unheard of oppressions? a Non payment of the rents all over the Country, which has impoverished it to this day, and in riched Indi- viduals, while the Company was on the brink of destruction and ruin, no- thing can be a stronger proof of this assertion, than the number of civil Servants that went home in these times, with princely fortuness could these fortunes be obtained mer- ely from the Offices they held from the Company? If answer, No, could these fortunes be obtained by lawful trade? No, or by any means in so short a time? No, the plan they were gained on, any Ideot may now guess, how very grossly were the Company imposed on, respecting the Military expences, how was this done? by scandalous and false representations, inseting on their Books, Charges the Military never had to do with, such as Chiefs of the subordinate Settlements; Travelling up and down the Country, some- times on the Companys account, oft- ener on parties of pleasure, all their Travelling expences; of Bearers, and Servants of every denomination, for they went in the highest State for the honor and glory of their Employers, posted in large Capitals, Military expences, for the Collection of the Revenues or what not, a youth (jnst free 'd from the watch full eye of a foolish indulging parent) was sent to reside, the first thing master Tom- my does, for the honor of his Em- ployers was to build a very superb Bunglow, for which he was allowed 5, or 6000 Rupees at least, though perhaps not certain of remaining a Month,—Posted as before Military expences, to another part of the Country, Master Samey was dispatch- ed, to investigate a Rice Golah, & often Matters not of so much conse- quence, well what is to be done on this Occasion? though he has been told he will not stay above a Week or ten days, and that he has not a- bove thirty Coss to go.—All these precautions are Needless, an Indent was Immediately made out to the Military Store Keeper General, for a double sett of Field Officers. Camp Equipage, Master Samey is very de- licate and cannot bear the pernicious Easterly Winds to blow on his Ten- der frame, not satisfied with the Quantity, or Quality, of what a Field Marshal of England would think sufficient—who was rendering the most Important services to his King, and Country; but what is a Marshal of England or France; to a Company's Writer, need I Insult your understanding, by drawing the comparison. Thus, Sir; was the miserable and distressed state of the Country; when Mr. Hastings assumed the Govern- ment; on the 22 day of April 1772, how speedily he recovered the Com- pany from the Enormous sum of 1,700,000 £ clear 'd off at home, the Treasury in a flourishing conditi- on, their Public Credit in overy part of the World good, and their Arms in every corner of India respected and dreaded, References from his coming; to the Chair, until october 1774 can best testify these assertions, as a reform on the Civil service is spo- ken of the same abilities and Exer- tions on his side, I hope will be once more employed, to save this distressed and unhappy country, from that ruin which appears to me so nearly accomplished by the Rapacious; and dishonorable conduct of many of the Companys servants, the Field of corruption, and Peculation, is very extensive, but as he is well informed of every Inch of Ground in the Com- panys Possession, the reforment must commence at Lucknow, and come down gradually to the Presidency, when his Investigations reaches the capital abuses of every kind appears, by the creation of innumerable use- less civil Offices, or to speak plainer; sinecures, given almost on every Oc- casion to Needy adventurers that can- not have any claim whatever to the Companys protection, let any person of the smallest knowledge of Man- kind, take a view of the respectable personages, that fill the first Offices of the state, the Catalogue will be found to be a most solemn Burlesque on every thing that is decent—or serious, as a proof, only mention the M— of P—, or C—G— [ILL] the Gravest Man in Existence, and if he does not immediately Laugh of cry, I pronounce his whole nervous system totally destroyed. In every Company I go into, Sir, nothing is to be heard, but the de- plorable and very miserable state of the Company's affairs, this language to me, I must confess, appears a paradox, for when I look round me, and see the Idle ostentation and dis- apation all over Calcutta, both in and out of Doors, the Elegant dis- play of Chariots, Coaches, and Vis a Vis, &c. &c. &c. superbly finish- ed by Hacket; I am induced to sup-

pose, the Companys affairs to be in a very flouristing state to enable their Servants to live in such a profusion of prodigal ty, what superior Merit has the Company's civil servants over the Military, that their Allowan- ces should be so very Disproporti- nate? the latter though they have barely enough to exist upon, they seem contented, at least they never complain, Allowing that an Officer is never super ceeded, he must serve at least Eighteen or Twenty Years, encountering Poverty, and a dread- ful climate all the while before he Can Attain the rank of a Lt Colonel, where attained what is the reward or so long a service? In Garrison he re- ceives, between 5, and 600 Rupees ances in the Field, Pay and Batta- can never exceed, Sonat Rupees, 1480—how many civilians not three Years in the service, would look on the above mentioned sum, as a very prescrib 'd pittance indeed, I am there- fore of opinion, every Man who is a well wisher to the company, and for his own future Advantage, ought to be Contented with a bare Existence, until the affairs of the Company are in a more happy condition, and I have not the smallest doubt remaining, but a little exertion from Government will Effectually and speedily restore this country to its former splen [ILL] our. A well wisher to the Company, ———— CALCUTTA. Extract of a Letter from Madras. Dated 2d February 1782. WE are informed that a reinforce- ment arrived from Bombay at Til- lechery which the enemy mistook for a Relief or exchange of the Troops there on duty as before, and therefore thought themselves in perfect security, the com- manding officer a Major Adington I (think) formerly a Captain in SIR EYRE COOTE 's Regment perceiving the mistake Encouraged those Ideas by a pretended Embarkation of troops &c. (tho' Dark,) when the whole Garrison made a sally into the Enemies camp, took 60 Pieces of Cannon 15 Elephants 53 Horses 3 lacks of Rupees in specie, and 2 lacks in grain. A great number of prisoners were made Amongst whom the Commanded Sardar Cawn with his wife and Family the wife is a daughter of Hyders, and about 500 Killed. Immediately after this the same force, crossed the River and took Mahe and Fort St. George which the Enemy must have Evacuated being panic struck at what was doing in their Camp. Our loss is about 150 Killed and Wounded, no Officer hurt, The Dispatches from Bombay inform us, of a cessation of Arms with the Marattas, and the probability of a peace, also of the arrival of the re- mainder of John sons Fleet having under convoy the Armed vessels Transports and Indiamen and that it was to sail for this Coast as soon as refreshed, likewise of the success of our arm son the west coast when the 5 homeward bound Indiamen we heard of some time ago were arrived did under the command of commodore white the oldest Captain take Several small Dutch factories & great store of spices, a large ship laden with part of the plunder is hourly Expected. We heard by a sea poy of the 4th Bat- alion lately from Hyders Camp, and again by another man belonging to Col. Owen who came in yesterday than Hyder was distracted and would fee no one, no doubt this news is enough to make him mad, and he certainly must have heard it—The siege of Tellicharry is raised Major Adington by stolen march early on Tuesday morning the 8th Instant with about 3 Battalions of feapoys 80 Euro- peans and 2000 irregulars got to Sardar cawnes head Quarters first getting in the rear of Putnammaley which was taken by storm, the enemy on this being Pannic struck port after port was taken until we got near Sardars own house, near curct- chee which was as well as curtchee very strongly fortified and where a stand was made for upwards an hour. Our People not being able to find their way into it they set it on fire, at length hearing that Sardar Khan was in it; they closely fur- rounded it, in short he was made prisoner, after having narrowly escaped the flames, He had with him about 50 or 60 Men who acted at his body guard and who defended him to the last moment of their existence, being most of them destroyed by fire or sword. Serdar who had been out on horse back early on the first alarm, was shot thro' the outer uncle of the left leg, I saw him dress 'd at Telicherry I thirk he is in abad way and will probably lose his foot, if not his life, his horse was killed under him, and he made horse best of his way in a Pallanqueen to his fortified house whither he was pursued and secured. There was in his house 3 lacks of Rupees besides Jewels, two or three beautiful Tygers, and several fine horses were destroyed partly by fire and partly by the brutalrage of our irregulars; 50 pieces of cannon are taken and 1200 of the Enemy's regulars are in a Pandal in Telichery wel watched Sardar said he never passed amore tranquil night than he did that which preceded his being made prisoner as he only supposes the reinforcement that arrived from Bombay, was come to relieve those that had been so long on duty at that Garrison 4000 of the Enemy who returned to Malie, on seeing their General made prisoner and the day lost surrendered them selves on condition they should be allowed to depart unmolested with their arms and cartridge boxes, which was readily granted. Early next day our Colours were flying on all the Hills, we have taken at Mahe 13 elephants 1000 head of cattle, grain, pep- per and timber to a very considerable amount. Hyder we hear is in a state of distract- ion, and has committed many, acts of inhumanity and cruelty, having cut off the Ears and Noses of several thousands of his people, and Tippa Saib, and dif- figured in a most igno minions manner several of his Sirdars.

THAT very excellent well built ship the H ICKY which was cast away on Thursday 31st of January in that vi- olent Lattitat Gale on the Pool bundy Rocks and from which circumstance she was deemed irrecoverable lost was we hear to the great joy of all Lovers of their Country (and the unspeakable mortification and everlasting stigma and disgrace of the Lattitats, and Traytors to their Country got off in the Course of an hour, and we have the pleasure to inform our friends and the publick in general, that she has nor received the smallest damage either in her Keel, Hull; or Rigging.—And that the steady and form conduct of her Com- mander, in working his Vessel during the Gale, as also during the time she was on the Pool bundy Rocks, in not seeming in the least disconcerted, and at the moment that all beholders expected her to go down, he got her off with the greatest Composure by lightning of his Vessel of apart of her Cargo; and with which he Loaded the Lattitats with a burthen of everlasting disgrace.—His Conduct on this occasion having gained him the un- iversal applause of all his friends and of the Public in general, and in fact of many of those who were before his Enemies, it is now currently reported that by the first dispatches that he will be strongly re- commended to his Majesty,—and it is confidently reported that his Vessel will be taken into the service of Her Country and called the ROYAL [ILL] and that a Roving Commission will be made our for her Commander who in future is to bear the Title of Commodore H ICKT, and is to hoist the British Flag at his Fore Topmast head,—Several very able Offi- cers and Seamen have Voluntary entered into his Majesty's service on board of his Vessel, and the Commodore is very short- ly to go on a six months cruise against the asiatic Pirates Contracters, and Lat- titats with a determined resolution to burn sink and destroy all he meets, this account we are informed has fill 'd the minds of the Lattitats Contractors Court sycophants, pimps, and panders with horror; and the minds of all true lovers of their country with heart felt joy. The Lattitats they say have purchased an old Brigg which has been laid up a long time in the Poolbundy dry-dock, in which they intend to cruise against the Royal sovereign, and the command of her we hear is to be given to Captain feeble, for his late faithful services during the time that the HICKY was thumping on the Poolbundy ROCKS. But COMMODORE HICKY we are informed smiles at their weak Efforts, and has possivelty de- clared that he is of opinion that the Lattitat cruiser must inevitably go to the bottom the moment she begins to work in a head Sea.—That from his own know- ledge the Poolbundy white ants, has eate their way thro her Keel, and that her sides being made intirely of old cancelled deeds, and Bills of Error, they are all honey-combed, with the white ants,— That her shrouds being made of the scraps of old French tape collected from the diabolical Briefs which has already ruin- ed half the people in this country; can never possibly support a mast in a Gale of wind. Her Cable also they say is the most di- bolical and horrid piece of stuff that ever cursed a Ships Anchor, being made out of the rotten fag-ends of the late Bye- Law, and having lain in the Pool bundy, and Fischal God owns, so long that it is quite ruined owing to the dampness and Rottenness of the foundation; of the said God owns, and having been refused ad- mittance in the BALANCE-GOD OWNS, this Cable was Rousted so often from the Pool bundy God owns to the Fiskal God owns, and from the Fiscdal Godawns, back a- gain to the Pool bundy Gowdons that it is intirely ruined, being overset and coiled against the sun above Twenty times, that it is full of kinks, thorough puts, Elbows, and Round turns, and not trust-worthy to Ride a Bumboat by. —The Commodore of the Royal Sovereign declares he is determined not to offer so great an indignity to his Ship as to fire one of his two and thirty Brass Pounders into her, but has Ordered his Officers to got some Boxes of hand Gra- nades and stinck-pots, a few of which he intends to fling into them, should they dare presume to come within a Cables length of the Royal Sovereign. Some of the Lattitats having heard of the Commodore's late success, and safe deli- very out of that horrid Lattitat gale which was fanned up by old Belsabub for the benefit of their Brethren, and be- ing apprehensive that the Commodore will soon be too [ILL] for then have applied to [ILL] Vessel as Volunteer—and [ILL] sured from good Author iced that the Commodore has positively [ILL] he would not suffer one of them [ILL] Board of his Vessel, that although to was determined that his people [ILL] have their full allowance of Greg [ILL] all kind of Provissions, yet was that Grog to want but one Thimble [ILL] it's measure, their Provissions to [ILL] dram of it's Weight, was any of [ILL] sons of confusion and dis cold, on [ILL] they would fill the honest Sea mens [ILL] full of Actions in Trover, and treaputed on the ease, and that they would be con- tinually writing round Robbin for the Ships Company, exclusive of all this [ILL] was perfectly satisfied he said, that them was not one of his Officers, or [ILL] even down so low as the Captain saw [ILL] who would suffer one of them in [ILL] mess. ———— ADVERTISEMENT.
