Jumna and Touse rivers ; and the 
British: authority once establish- 
ed in the valley, posts could have 
been extended from thence along 
those rivers to a distance sufficient 
to deprive Ummeer Sing of his 
middle line of communication, 
and to force him, on the event of 
his being compelled, or finding it 
expedient to abandon his western 
conquests, to seek a retreat by the © 
only line for it, which would then 
be left him, along the foot of the 
snowy mountains. The unfortu- 
nate events before Kalunga re~ 
tarded, and for a time completely 
frustrated, the views of the Com- 
mander in Chief, and deprived the 
3rd division of the army under 
Colonel Ochterlony, of the sup- 
port and co-operation it was to 
derive from the 2nd division after 
the occupation of the Dhoon, in 
acombined attack on the Goorkah 
power and possessions in Sir- 
moor. The fall of Kalunga, the 
secure occupation of the Dhoon, 
and the expulsion of the enemy, 
which is stated to be complete, 
from the districts lying between 
the rivers Touse and Jumna, have 
in part accomplished the objects 
of the campaign in that quarter, 
and Jed to the immediate resump- 
tion of the original plan of ope- 
rations intended to be pursued to 
the westward of the Jumna. 
The battering train was to have 
left Deyrah on the 6th inst. ‘and 
it was expected the remainder of 
the division would descend the 
Timley Pass on the Sth or 9th, 
on its route to Nahan, which the 
Commander in Chief has ordered 
should be through the protected 
eikh country, and the Muckunda 
Pass, with a view to avoid the dif- 
ficult pass of Guttansun, and the 
defiles leading directly from the 
Kaerdar valley towards Nahan.
