Copy of a Report from Brigadier-General Cotton to Brigadier- General Sir A. Campbell, K.C.B. dated near Youngyoun, 9th Mamb o 1835. Sin—l do myself the honour to report to you the operation; and progress of the column under my com mand, since the date of my last dispatch—the 24th ult. On the 25th of Febru .ry, the flotilla proceeded to Mezlee, about ten miles from Panlang, up the b: anch of the river leading to Yungunchynah. Information was this day received that the light and advance divi- sions had the evening before taken up a position in the river Irrawuddy,commanding the entrance of the branch leading to Panlang. flee report received was, that the passage, though extremely intricate, might be made good. The following morning (the 26th), we were enabled to proceed to Talynda, the distance estimated to be eighteen miles horn the last a echotage.. Here commenced the shallows, and the heavier vessels grounded. On the 27th, it was found necessary to unload the steam-vessel and gun schooners, h.r which purpose boats were allotted ; and the remainder of the flotilla joined the advance division in the Ireawuddy. 1 proceeded on the 28th to reconnoitre, and first came in contact with the enemy at Youngyouu, about ten miles above our position. They occupied the lett bank of the river, as we advanced, and appeared to be au out post from Donabeer, the white pagoda of which was visible about ten miles higher up the river. The tight bank was deserted, except by a few Carrians. The whole of the flotilla, except those employed in assisting the heavy vessels through the shallows and over the bar, wetpdirected to proceed and occupy the position reconnoitred the day before. When they had advanced about half-way it was discovered that the enemy had occupied a post on the right bank, and pushed on thirteen waobcats. The latter were driven away by the boats .of the light division, while a few men of the 89th Regiment were landed, who dis persed the foynaer, killing some and taking one prisoner, at the expeoie of four min - slightly wounded. The flotilla cccupied the position pointed out, resting the left upon an island which here divides the river: two six-pounders were !laced upon the point completely commanding the space between the island and the left bank, which is about one-third of the whole width . of 'he river, and g;ving us free intercourse with the right hank. The last of the vessels having arrived on the evening of the sth instant, the flotilla got under weigh early on the morning of the 6th, and took up a position about two miles below Donabew, while I proceeded with Captain Alexamier, Royal Navy, in front to reconnoi tre. It was evident that the enemy had prepared to receive us below his position, having a succession of formidable stockades, commencing at the pagoda, and continued increasing in strength, until complete) by the main work, which is lofty, upon a very commanding site, surrounded by a deep abbatis, with all the custo mary defences. The guns appeared to be numerous, and the garrison wee se n in crowds upon all the works. At half-past cue o'clock, P.tet. I sent, by the prisoner taken on the lsr, a flag of truce, with a sum mons to surrender the place, giving one hour for a re ply, which arrived at halfrpast three. It contained a civil, but decided refusal to accede to the proposed terms. A party of one hundred and sixty men of his Majesty's 89th Regiment, covered by the light division, and some row boats, had been prepared to land on the right bank, to reconnoitre a point opposite the main stockade, which was in possession of some men belong ing to war-boats, Oat were lying under cover of the bank of the river. This party was immediately ad vanced, some of the war-boats retired under the guns on the opposite side, where they were unassailable, and the object of the reconnoissance was completely gained. During the time that our boats were in progress, and while lying at the point, the enemy kept up an incessant fire from about thirty pieces of cannon, many of heavy calibre. The precision with which they were directed, gave a colouring of truth to the report that the Chief, liundocla,had been for some time practising his artillery. The range had been well ascertained, and the river was commanded all across. The point is well adapted for a battery of heavy mortars; an island above the main stockade would be available for the same purpose ; and by attacking on that side, the necessity of previously carrying the lower stockades would be obviated._ This was the plan of attack I was most anxious to adopt. The objectio:is to it ate as follow :—ln consequence of your sh 41 dispatch of the 2.1 instant, from Sarrawah, •ind to supply the wants of the column under my co it mand, I dispatched on the sth, eight fi at boats to Panlang, to bring provisions for both columns. This entailed upon us the absolu:e necessity cf maintaining the command of the river between Donabew and that post, or hazarding the capture of a convoy upon which the - success of the whole campaign will depend. The column you did me the honour to place under my ci mmand was originally composed - of seven hundred and fifty bar nets (Europeans) exclusive of the 18th Regiment of Native Infantry, stationed at Panlang. Of these, twenty-five men were left to guard the armed transport Satellite: about twenty. five more were sick, a proportion less than I could have expected ; small guards arc required for the dlfetent boats, leaving me about six boodied bayonets disposable for the attack of a strong place, the garrison ut which is nowhere es timated at less than twelve thousand men, well fur nished with artillery and muskets. It is obvious that this small force could not be separated. Upon consulting with Captain Alexander, whether, if I passed the posi tion for the purpose of attacking above it, he could keep opera the river below us, it was his opinion that one half of the force would be requisite for this im portant purpose. Your dispatch from Lain, of the 24th ultimo, depending upon me for the conquest of this position, devolved upon me the necessity of making the attempt : and I had no option but that of landing below the whole of the work., attacking them in succession, while the flotilla defended the river. Reparations were accordingly made to commence with the pagoda stockade ; and at sun-rise on the 7th instant, five hundred bayonets were disembarked one mile below the pagoda ; the men were formed into two columns of equal strength, under the command of Lieutenant-Colonel O'Donaghue, 47th, and Major Basden, 89th Regiment ; two six-pounders were landed under Captain german, of the Madras Artillery, and Lieutenant Paton, of the Bengal Artillery, had charge of a small rocket battery. Both columns were led with unexampled steadiness ; while at proper ra•ige, a steady fire was opened from the guns and rocket bat tery. All were exposed to a heavy fire, which was kept up by the enemy to the last, with a perseverance and spirit that has been seldom evinced by the Bur mans. The gorges of this strong work were narrow, and completely occupied by the gallant troops, who were forcing an entrance, which, when made good, left the enemy, who are reported to hive been three thou sand men, no alternative but a passage over their own formidable defences. They were overtaken in the last abbatis, where they stood to fire until closed upon by the troops inside, and checked by others who had run round outside in search of an entrance to the body of the woik. The dead, the wounded, and the panic struck fell in one common heap, in and close about the abbatis; and when I state, that of the two litter two hundred and eighty were brought in prisoners, 1 cannot estimate the loss of the enemy in this affair 450 men; our's was about twenty kill , The second delence is about five Inc h.- pagoda st:,ckade, and the wale affair. at less than lied and wounded. undred yards from distance flora the SONG& THE UNIVERSAL S ONGSTER ; nr, MUSEUM OF MIRTH, is publishing Weekly, in Numbers, contain ing about Sixty Songs, illustrated by Cruikshank, price Three- Pence, or in Monthly Parts, Price One Shilling.
