.... brave men wins have been my companions in arms, to intrude upon ydur attention's. more than ordinary detail ..f ur proceedings. I'hacl the honour of flat ing ir. my laft;thot the ex Tian <.f the jimainn of the Mamelokei ed me to perfevere in the attack OfAilldWajeivery exertion was con tinued to be made hytoch artillery As we could corn mand, in reducing the enemy to fur - renfler, bat with out effeEt : the miflak, n ground upon which we were aging rep !Eking the Marnehikes, and the general de ception of our informers were now about to become manifell. On the 19th, the enemy left his pofition oprfite liktnet, and crofling the river near Elfine, eftsblithed'himfell there. He.advanced from ,Dibet against Hamet on the fame day, and attacking Ma. jot Vogelfang's pofition on the left, was repelled with jr•fs ; a (14r/elision was made at the fame time at Ro letta. in a fortie againft the left of our lines, by about eighty cavalry and zoo infantry ; the 35th regiment .and the dragoons were engaged ; they repotted the enemy with much fpirit, and drove him, as nfual, to kis walls. The 35th had in this affair two kilted and 14 wounded. I this evening detached the light com panies of the 35th and of De Rolle's to the poll of El'Hamet under the- command of Captain Tarleion of the former. His orders were to drive the enemy acrafs the Nile, either during that nigh; or early next morning. On attempting to effeEt this fervice on the 2oth, the enemy was found to be powerful in cavalry, and Captain Tarleton retired. I mutt here !late the nature of the pofition of Hamet: horn Lake Edko to the Nile is an ilthmus about two miles and a half in extent, varying according to the depth of water in the lake. The remains of a deep canal with high banks extend from the river neatly two thirds aerofs this ifthmus ; the banks command the plain on either fide. The village of Hamet is on the fouthern fide of the canal, about half way acre& ; its inhabitants were friendly to us. On the Banks of the Nile, and at Hemet, are the only two regular pales through the .hanks of the canal. At each of thefe was polled a gun, and a proportion of Major I V.Telfang's detachment. From the termination of the canal tt, the lake is a plain, paffable by cavalry: A picquet plaided this flank. As Captain 'rarletais ' retreated, he divided his detachment; he direEted the march of his own company to the left pofition, and fent the De RPlle's, reinforced to too rank and file. ID Hamel village. While croffing the plain, the Latter detachment, under Captain Reinack's orderr, was fuddenly attacked by zoo cavalry, and as it (tmid oppeari was with little oppofition routed ; two-thirds were at-in pieces. Report of this reaching me by ileveitWelOck In the forenoon, I detached Liente watit-COleisel M'Leod with two companies of the 78th regitnent,"one -of the 35th, a piquet of dragoons un der Captain Delaney, and a fix-pounder, to reinforce 'the poR, and take the command. Two more com panies followed in the afternoon, with a day's pro -*Hum -for his whole force, ammunition, &c all which - arrived fafelv. 0a the arrival of the reinforcement, the 'enemy retired towards Dileg, and I received af ftir.iitee'from the Lieutenant Colonel before fun-fet, of the.perfeo fecurity of his polt ; he had detached three Companies, the dragoons, and a three pounder, ,ureer Captain Tarletoo's orders, to the plains on the right, a id hied reinforced the cantle• polt by a company of the 35th regiment; the averatil!teength of thele companies were 6o rank.and ale. t f , • During the day the enemy made no movement Amt., but cant reinforcements to Hemet friths the town, by the right bank of the Nile. I vifited thet pis@ of Hemet during - the night of the aoth, and had the gq . , 4 fortune to efcape the enemy's &leaky. sago bad turned Capt. Th e ievs "pofition it inflict, to the number of 150. Having, reconnoitred the linen( defence, which - I found els be :ilitEalr'in witty pans, and very eitenfive, I confirmed my. fortner inftruelions to LieutoCnlonel M‘latod, that he- fhould defend the poll In the outwit, -heir' if !likely' to be forced '•r turned by :a numerous 'cavalry, that be lhould cancen rate and oirisuyer hirdelf upon the lake ; that if this was not featible, he thould fall back on the main army. I at the fame time concerted meafures for a general retreat on the fucceeding night, unlefs certain intelligence of the Mamelukes Mould arrive on the tfl. • Al. though he had one third of my force under his or. ders, I gave him reafon to expel a reinforcement of 8o men more, with ammunition, on the enfuing morn ing. About (even o'clock on the morning of the 1t•11, I received the following exprefs from hint : '4 The cavalry were not to be fern this morning ; but, to my utter ationithment, from 6o to 70 large germs, and a large brig, are now coming down the Nile upon us. Ido ant know what to fay of this; it ap pears, undoubtedly, a reinforcement to the enemy, and one of confiderable magnitude. I take it for granted they h the gun boats among them. I mull make preparation, and be toady to retire upon you ; let me know as fo-n as pollible " My anfwer, im mediately difpatched, was not received, the dragoon being unable to pencu ate to the poll. The reinforce ment alto, which had marched under the orders of your AideolioCamp, Captain A'Coart, was obliged to return. Not a moment was to be loft in breaking up from the pofition before Rolm*, ariMin fupporting the H oo,t detachment. The advance upon us of a firong b dy of cavalry in that diseition, prevented my (letacLing a tingle c•irps to their relief, and it was neceffary that the whole army thould move together. The fidd guns were firft withdrawn froth the bat teries ; all camels were laden with ammunition and inoispenfilde Rpm; the epronades and mortars kept up their fire on the town to the 101 l moment that .could be (pared, and were then defiroyed and buried:* all (pare amMuni inn and notes were fet fire to and. blown up. The picquets remained in their leashes moil the field train, the wounded, and the Stores were o frembl e d in the plains, under the charge of the 78th and De Roll's regiment, which .formed a .1-quare retitnd them. The brave 35th then retreated, fol.' lowed by the picquets. The enemy,. (*Hying from the town in all direltions, furrourrded our ignore ; but the bold front which the 35th kept, under the command of Capt. Riddle, and the flanking polition• of the tight infantry battalion, under Major O'Keefe, on the heights of Aboumandour, prevented_hint mak ing any impretEon Nothing could furpars the fiCadi• nets of the troops you had entrulted to my command. The 33th Regiment fired by its wings and platoons retiring. and the 78th, with its front rank kneeling, as during the movements of a field day. Under the diteCtions of Colonel Ofwald, who regulated the proceedings in . the rear, I felt tonfident of the good conduit of the whole. About ten o'clock our little army advanced acrofs thefandy for the Lake Edko, anclithe fition. • We. arrived there ;lbw ciiothirtal fire, 'and after was not, however, confider: • the wittily being kept 'et a . our artillery from the flanks bf furprife, not an individual joined Ili on ibis *birch, nor that direaion ; our lalt account of their proceedings left them warmly engaged near to the village of Ha. met on the. Rofetta fide, .Failing to meet them on the fhore of the lake, it was neceff.iry, is fome tneafure, to retrace our Reps, and to look too them nearer to 'EI Hamet. This could be effeaed by gaining fome fend hills, which were . about a mile on our left. Our march was accordingly direaed towards them, the light infantry now leading the front of the fquare, advanced with iitivity, and the enemy who occupied them, difperfed in all direa;ons. From thofe hills, which completely command 4 view of the plain and Harnet,pofition, the enemy 'were feen to be in pcfreffion •of the latter, and not any appearance cf :our detachment in the former. It was apparent they had either effeaed a feparate retreat' to Edko, or been completely defeated ; in either cafe It was ad ' vifable, under all circumaancet, that the armyfhould continue its original retreat. This was rehashed in the fame good order as before ' • the left being flank ed by the lake, the enemy ceafed to purfue us. Our cafaalties during• this retreat did not exceed fifty killed and wounded, and none , were captured.. The lois of our enemy .was confiderable, but we spade n 9 prifoners. By runlet we arrived at the depot: Lien: tenant Tilly, with his ufuar aftivity, had, in conic quence of my exprefs to him in the morning, fafely embarked all provilions and (lore'. Having left our bounded and our twelve.pounder on board germs here, and refreihed the army, we advanced to Edko, and took up our former pofition about two in the morning. On the sad the whole of the times which were at Edko were safely embarked for the Caravan. feta, when the army marched for that poll, and ar• rived in the afternoon without oppofition. On the fircceeding day the troops embarked for Aboukit's Wells; the caravalifera was blown up under the di ration of Captain Hallowell. No certain intelligence has reached me refpeaing the fate of the detachment under Lieutenant-Colonel M , Leod. General report confit ms their defeat in the forenoon of the 219, and Oates many of them to be prifoners. On this I will make no comment. Every Rep which a fenfe of duty could dilate was taken, in older to fecure the poll of Hamet; and it will, 1 fincerely trail, appear to you that none which prudence could tuggell were omit ted, in order that a junaion fhould be formed with the detachment. That our unfortunate comrades did their duty mutt not be doubted, that all was lott, (aye honour, when they furrendered, mull alto not be doub:ed. In doling this letter I am bound to (late, that I have been ably fupported by thole who were under my alders. ' • . .• To Colonel Ofwald I owe every thing that a Com ;spender can owe to his fecond it) command. To Lien. 'eenant Tilly for his exertions on the Lake, and to Captain Nicholls for his Cervices at the Caravanfera, I . .ear army was indebted for its uninterrupted fupply. Wherever naval aniflance has been required, it has been given, under the able foperintendance of Capt. Hallowell, with a zeal fo peculiar to our naval °pc- 1 rations. In every department and to each command lag officer, our counts y is under much obligation, for they exerted theurfelves to the ut moll.
