Imaum, by preparing cordially to aid the authorities of
Muskat against a rebellious chief, who is in consequence
induced to return to his allegiance.
A piracy, attended with murder, is committed by six Nujdees
of Muskat, who had been lately dismissed from the service
of the Imaum, upon a Kishm boat, in which they had
taken passage. The pirates arc discovered at Cheeroo, and
handed over to the British authorities, who subsequently
send them, agreeably to instructions from Government, to-
Muskat, with a desire that they might be made to suffer
adequate punishment.
The authorities of Muskat supply Esai bin Tarif and his
colleagues with ammunition and military stores, but
decline taking any active interference in their contest with
Bahrein, without the sanction of His Highness, who refers
them for the sentiments of the British Government on the
subject. These were opposed to his taking part in the
civil war.
A force, sent by the Imaum against his rebellious subjects
of Sevee, is defeated, with great slaughter.
