Mr. Henry Wise, the agent in London for Mr. Brooke,

Rajah of Serilwak, has addressed a letter to the East India and China Association, furnishing satisfactory intelligence from Borneo. Since Admiral Cochrune's naval de- monstration, the Sultan had addressed a very penitential letter to Queen Victoria, craving pardon and oblivion of the past, and giving many as- surances of future good behaviour; and the Sultan had ratified all his for- mer engagements: so that there remains no obstacle to the formation of a British settlement on the island of Labuan. The survivors of the Rajah Muda Ilassim's family were located at Sarawak, under Mr. Brooke's pro- teetiou.
