The question is about the treaties made by the English with native rulers of India in the 18th century. The correct pair of the treaty and the native ruler is asked. Let`s go through each option:

- Option 1: Treaty of Allahabad was indeed made with Shuja-ud-daula. This pair is correctly matched.

- Option 2: Treaty of Purandar was made with Marathas. This pair is correctly matched.

- Option 3: Treaty of Mangalore, according to the given answer, was made with Anwar-ud-din. However, this is incorrect. The Treaty of Mangalore was actually made between the British East India Company and Tipu Sultan, the ruler of the Kingdom of Mysore. Therefore, this pair is not correctly matched.

- Option 4: Treaty of Seringapattam was indeed made with Tipu Sultan. This pair is correctly matched.

From the options provided, it is clear that option 3 is the one that is not correctly matched. Alert - correct answer should be Treaty of Mangalore: Tipu Sultan.
