Aaly-verdy-qhan being now arrived in his capital, received a respectful letter from Mirza-saleh where it was set forth that his master was now all submission to his commands; having taken a sincere resolution to approve himself henceforwards his obedient servant. Some time having been spent in questions and answers, in a few days the treaty of peace was concluded; and it was on the following terms:— "That Mir-habib, deemed henceforward to be in the service of the Majestuous in battles, should be invested by him with the honourable office of Deputy to His Highness in the Nizamet or Military Government of the Province of Oressa. That as Deputy-Governor, he should receive orders to appropriate the revenues of that province to the payment of the arrears due to Rhago-dji-bhoslah's troops. That over and above that assignment, the sum of twelve lacs of rupees should be paid to Rhago-dji's agents yearly, under condition that the Marhattas would never set their foot again within the dominions of His "Highness. Lastly, that the Mutusuddies and the Accomptant-office of Bengal would pay yearly the above sum." "That the river Sonamakia, which runs by Ballisser-bender, should henceforward be reputed to be the wall and boundary betwixt the two dominions, and that the Marhatta armies would never offer to cross it, or to put a foot in its waters."
