Victorious English in Bengal Attend Naval and Land Action

An English squadron and 500 regulars under Col. Ford repelled Dutch landings at Canchery, killing 400 and imprisoning others while Col. Clive’s forces backed by ships won both sea and land engagements. The Nawab’s defection later swung to the English, and damages totaled 100000 paid for Dutch losses. Extra letters describe Norwegian coast privateering, French prize captures, and naval movements.

Postscript on British Army Pay and Settlement Plans

The document proposes continuing regiment pay through disbandment and distributing funds from dead, deserter, and contingency pay among soldiers. It envisions settling remnants in America on land near colonies, with provisions, housing, and family support, plus legal exemptions from burdensome offices and charitable foundations for children. It also allows rewards for inventions and improvements, and elevates veterans who volunteer as militia substitutes, aiming to preserve men and foster public return on investment.
