" The fall of Mundlah affords to Major-General Marshall. another opportunity of congratulating the division under his command. Such has been the rapid and euccessfel order of events that have led to this Important conquest, that it is impos sible to imagine any thing mare complete, or where one could desire to have seen the most trivial difference in the order and mode in which the whole affair has been brought to a brilliant and (for those engaged) highly honourable conclusion. " While the artillery, pioneers, and infantry, pursued their toilsome journey to the place, dragging the ordnance and stores with labour and perseverance never surpassed, over'a country otherwise impracticable to an army encumbered with a lane train of artillery, the cavalry. including the abrade coetingent under Captains Blacker and Johnson, and our light troops, by a f. reed larch, succeeded is completely blockading the town and fort; and such were the admirable arrangements of Brigadier-General Watson, C. 13. who commanded, seconded by the Zealous exer dons of ajar O'Brien, and such the commendable vigilante of the blockading par.lee, that from the 14th to the 48th bestamt,, when the assault took place, it does not appear that a single ism dividual ef the garrison contrived to make his escape. " Tlit labours of Captain Ticket' and the Officers of the Ear glneer - Dcpartment commenced with the blockade. The recon noisances were conducted in the face of; then spirited garrison, profuse in their endeavours to molest them in the execution of this ditty. The situation of Mundlah, moreover, rendered it pe culiarly difficult to ascertain the localities and nature of the ene my's works; nevertheless, this important duty was fulfilled in a manner highly creditable to the Department. From the 40th, or morning after the arrival of the division before Mundlah, to *the 25th, the time was passed in the preparation of materials fat the batteries; and from the nature of circumstances, and the abundant means In artillery, some of very heavy calibre, which the enemy possessed, these required to be laid in and prepared to an extent far exceeding former occasions. The whole was, however, got ready, and batteries completed during the night of the 15th, with singular dispatch, so as to allow the artillery to commence their fire at five o'clock on the morning of the 26th. " The positions of the batteries wer e commanding, especially that on the south bank, whose . euf lade across the river com pletely drove the enemy from his works, and when the breach was assaulted, the opposition was feeble until the troops descen ded into the town ; after whicla the animated gallantry of the assailants was soon rewarded LT the entire possession thereof, after a considerable slaughter of the enemy's troops, who vainly petted gap svil th( to synoni upon and ard, command qualities cation • treat his him, even• that piness endeatouredto orrett their progress. " To the above detail must be added the spirited conduct of the party under Major Curamleg and Captain Sterling, of the 7th Native Cavalry, In advancing from their blockading posi tions, and attacking a party of the enemy who endeavoured to escape from the town when stormed : and in which affair they sttc:exied in destroying all but fifty or sixty, who ware taken prkoners. " Captain Black's position enabled that officer to sustain an important part in the affair, as the fire of the field pieces from thence destroyed numbers of the fugitives, who were endea vouring to cross from the town into the fort, along a causeway which lay under the line of his fire. " Captain Black had also the singular good fortune of taking poisoner the Kit:eclat of the fort, Saheb Roy Hazaree, who puling the Nerbudda during the darkness of the night in a Oman boat, was observed and seized by that officer's advanced panty. " The last act of these Important events was the unconditional surrender, on the morning of the t7th, of the fort and garrison, amounting to about one thousand men, exclusive of four or five hundred, not of a military description. About thirty pieces of ordnance, and a large quantity of small arms and military stores, have (alien into our bands. " To Brigadier-General Watson, C. B. the Major General's roost grateful acknowledgnients are due, for his emitent skill and judgment in maintaining the blockade, and for his service and animating gallantry In the command of the storming and sup porting columns; the value of his cervices are conspicuous front the distinguished part he bore in the operations above detailed. " As connected with the mention of the above distinguished officer, Major-General Marshall has much pleasure in recording the following names of officers, who had the good fortune to ac. under the Brigadier-General's immediate observation, and whose . . . • zealous services have been noticed by hint in terms of the high est co •• mendation and applause : " Brigadiers Price and Dewar, the former commanding the supporting, and lie latter the storming column. ..
