The situation of the wood and iron work made use of in this caperiment is eery high, and entirely exposed to the wind from the Channel, where it is difficult to find any coxing able to resist the weather. The paint, after having withstood the winter in the above situation, has formed a very bard and com pact body on both wood and iron work t the wood when cut is hard and very dty the iron free from every appearance of rust.... From the present appearance of the Mineral Brown Paint, its lard, solid, and impenetrable state, there is every reason to believe that it will defend the wood and iron work for years against the effect of weather and thititobtere of the atmosphere ; and we give it 31 nor opinion, that it is a useful coating for wood and iron weak exposed to the weatherer to damp, and consider it to be cheaper than any other that can be procured.

ADNIIRALTY OFFICE, AUGUST to. The Gazelle contains an extract of a letter from Cap tain Coe, of his Majesty's ship Liffey, to Jahn Wilson Croker, EA. dated at Madras, the 15th of February, 1825, which letter contained dispatches received by Captain Coe from Captain Nlarryatt, of the Lame, in the command of the naval fo-ce in the river Rangoon, detailing various successful attacks on the enemy, while co-operating with the army ; and also diFozzcites from Captain Chads, of the Arachne, giving an account of many successful attacks he made against the enemy, while in the c,nromand at Rangoon. Captain Coe re commends, in the strongest-terms, these Officers, and also Lieutenants Kellett, 10ohson, Fraser, Goldfinch, and Bazelep ; Mr. Atherton, Purser ; Messrs. Duffell, Scott, and Len, Masters' -mates; and Messrs. Maw, Winsor, Tomlinson, Mitchell Reed, and Murray, Midshipmen ; and, adds, that Captain C:!lads speaks in the strongest terms of Captain Ryves from whom he received every . Support and counsel. The first dispatch from CaptAin Marryatt, contains an 'account of his having assisted tI-e land forces with two boats from the Lame, on the 4th of August. in an attack on a stockade, which was taken is good style by the combined force. The second dispattit contains an account of thC storming of a stock ade in Dellah Cretk, under a heavy fire of the Bur mese, who at length fled intolhe jungle in !eery direc tion. A second stockade was then taken possestion of, without loss. Captain Marryatt, in this dispatch says, " I am softy that our list of wcunded is so feavy, but it will be accounted for when I state, that in all these attacks, the 1-scars, who m.'n the other boats. will not purl into the fire, sinless they are led by the Officers and sesrnen of his Majesty's ship Larne." Captain Chads' first dispatch-, 'dated the 7th "of NO. ,temher, contains an account' or the storming of the fort of Martaban, on the Manahan River, by ISO Europeans and SOO Sepoys. The enemy fled in all directions, leaving red numbers - dead and Wounded. Thirty of their war-boats,, semis of them pulling 50 oars, armed with swivels, moskets, and spears, were also destroyed. The second dispatch is as follows : a tract of a letter from Captain Chads, of his Ma jesti's.sloOp Araohne, to Captain Coe, dated Rangoon, Bth of December, 'lB24:—Ott the 30th ult. t':e eremy's boats were seen by the Hon. Company's cruiser Teign mouth, at the advanced post above Kemmindine, coming down in great numbers, loaded with men. The same evening they came forward with fire rafts, ohich obliged the Teignmouth to dip and go below Kemmin dine to avoid them ; this unfortunately left that post exposed to a most furious attack on every side, the enemy's war boats on its front, but it was nobly de fended by its garrison, under Major Yates, and the enemy repulsed. On the next day, Ist of December, the enemy Were seen in great numbers advancing to wards Della, about five thousand men; and they also. surrounded the Dagon Pagoda, where a constant heavy fire has been kept up. Captain Ryves, of the Sophie, in command during my absence, procured a guard of one hundred Sepoys from the General for the transp'rts, and placed this ship in her old station, about a mile and a half in advance of the shipping, to enfilade the 'Madras lines, and also ordered the Teignmoutis back to her station, to support. the post at Kemmindine. At day-light I returned and found things in this state,with the exception of the Teignmouth having been again *driven from her station dating the night by fire-rafts, and the post at Kemmindine again subject to furious and incessant attack's. I immediately sent the pinnace up, under Lieutenant Kellett, and Mr. Pickey, Admi ralty Midshipman, to gain information and reconnoitre, and shortly afterwards three. gun boats, under Mr. Coyde, Midshipman, with a party of my seamen tl fight the guns ; this assistance was most timely; as tie garrison was sorely pressed in every directi ,n; from which critical situation Lieutenant Kellett's highly ju dicious and determined gallant conduct immediately re lieved them, by cleating both the flanks of the enemy by showers of grape-shot. This service, performed by a single boat, in the face of hundreds of the enemy's boats, was the admiration of the whole garrison ; and Major Yates has expressed himself to n:e in terms the most gratifying, for the able assistance Lieutenant Kel lett afforded him. The Teignmouth shortly afterwards resumed her sta tion, and was constantly engaged with the enemy's war boats, which had lung guns in their bows, and annoyed her a great deal. In the afternoon, finding the enemy were making every effort to gain that post, and as it was of the last impertance, bothin a military and naval point of view, I ordered the Sophie up for its support, with three more gun boats, and our party unit r Lieu tenant Kellett to semain. Whilst this post is held, the enemy cannot annoy the shipping at Rangoon by fire, las the distance is great, and the winding id the river, with the tit ms lad out, throw all the rafts upon the opp.site sije. The enemy °poll the Della side having began to throw up works, I ordered the :its elite armed transport, in charge of Lieutenant Dobson,of the Larne, with a party of seamen from this ship, to the %upper t *of the Good Hope transport, an-eady IJr sane time stationed. there, and several of the small gun-ves sels. These vessels hays' been from first to last occa sionally exchanging shot with the enemy, dismounting 'heir guns as fast as they got them up; and the Com mander of the Good Hope, Mr. hinny, is entitled to my best thanks, for handsomely coming form and on tl , is occasion, and for the essential set vice he has performed. - Early on the 3d, the S .p11:e took lira station off Kern snindine. With the ebb, the enemy again brought five rafts down, Ty t lighting them until within a very short distance of the ships, with their war-boats, firing their? shot over them, to prevent the apr:oach of our boats.-- 'lie Sophie cleared rl,ern, but the Ti.ignmonth was touched, and on fit:: for a short time, without damage. During this day, the enemy became extremely daring. snding their shot went farther than ours; upon which L sent the Sophie two long nines, which kept them fa ther off. Th..t enemy's bolts becoming mote bold, it was thoogll right to endeavour to give them a check ; and Captain Ryve:,, tl , irkiog they might be surptimi.i, laid his plan ac..urdingly, and succeeded to the fullest extent. A report, of this gallant attack I enclose (No. 2), which ',ill again bring to your notice Officers I have 'already mentioned to you for their good conduct. The tesult of this defeat of the enemy's war-boats *has been highly bem.ficial, not one having ventured within gun shot since. The two ships, however, have had their hands quite full, in keeping up a constant fire on the enemy attacking Kemmindine, and throwing up works against them, to mount guns in, which were dismounted as soon as got up without their having done any ma terial damage. In the evening Sir Archibald Campbell communicated to me his i•itention to attack the enemy's left wing towards Poussendown,,and requested a diver sion to be made by a naval force up that river; a report which I enclose contains the details, and which ended in the total defeat of Ow portion of the enemy's force. In the afternoon, finding the . enemy at Dada strength ening themselves, I sent the Powerful mortar-vessel over, and threw a few shells, which had considerable effect.—On the Gth, in the morning, finding the enemy still persisting in his attacks on - Kemmindine, I tent the m o r tar ve s sel u ? there, which reacted the post very essential service, and relieved the garrison considerably. ' The enemy's war-bor.ts still continued in sight insreat numbers, 11..4 at a respectful distance. Qa the 7th, iu the morn'ag, the enemy were seen very busy with rafts and boats for file, and with the strong ebb they brought them down, reaching nearly across the river, but as their boats - now do not remote close, they were fired eatller ; they consisted of upwards of twenty-six rafts and eight large boats, all lashed together. The Sophie just touched. the outside one without any injury, and held her ground. At noon, the troops at the Pagoda made ancther sally, and carried the whole of the enemy's entrenchments, taking their guns, ammunition, ,Stc. On receiving this infot motion, I immediately sent every disposable man from this ship, under Mr. Manly, the,Mastsr 4 with twenty Sepoys, in the steim-vessel, up to Captain Ityves, to endeavour to intercept their boats, and cat if their retreat: and in the night they went up,Tar beyond Pagoda Paint, without- seeing above four or five small boats, the enemy having retreated, and deserted the neighhoui bond of Kemmindine. • Taus, Sir, has this formidable attack ended to the total discomfiture of the enemy ; having called forth from the very small force I have the boseur to com mand, in every instince, the g•eatest gallantry and uci fot m got d conduct, tit der the utmost exertions by day and 'light, the great. st p.trt of them having beta in the boats since the surting of the expedition to Pevi, Lhe 2C.) h ult. From Captain Ryves I have received all the aid and counsel that a goo.l and valuable Officer could afford; and his determined perseverance in holding his ground, when the tire-rafts came down, merits the highest re. - commendation ; and flow his ready and zealous co opera•ions with the rost at Kemmindine, that place was greatly relieved in the arduous contest it was ett gagesi in. Of Lieutenant Kellett I cannot speak in tams suffi ciently strong to express my admiration of his Uniform gallantry. • LieutenAnt Goldfinch's conduct has also been most conspicuous, together with all the Midshipmen named in my reports, not one of a horn but have shewn indi vidual acts of great bravery-. _ Also to Mr. Manly, Master of this ship, who has, from necessity, been frequently left in charge during my ',limner, I feel much indebted. These Officers, the seamen, and marices, I bad the pleasure to serve with, I earnestly beg to recommend to your most favourable attention." The Report, No. 2, star. s that Captain Ryves Laving thought it practicable to surprise the enemy's war boats, which were annoying the ships with their long guns, placed the whole of his disposable I rte of Euro-- peens, about seventy, under the orders of Lieutenants Kellett, Goldfinch, and Cl .tice with Messrs. Pickey, Coyde, Scott, and Morr. , y, Midshipmen; Mr. Clarke and Mr. Lindgnist. in charge of the gun-boats. This force, in boats, pulled up t!ie river in the datk, and at tacked the enemy's war boats, :.nd captured the greater cart, the rest flying in the greatest confusion. The re sult of this gallant exploit was the capture of seven large war-boats, four of which carried long nines-on the bow : and on their return they cut adrift, and brought down a large floating stockade.—The whole service was performed without the loss of a man:—The Report, No. 8, states, that Sir Archibald Campbell having wished for a diversion to be made on the enemy's line posted on the Poussetidown River, whilst he stocked them in front, Captain Chads pi ocireded with the whole of his disposable force, which was forty Europeans, in gun-boats, to make an appearance, and opened a fire from all the boats, with every appearance of landing, which brought the enemy down in great force:- the enemy who weie then art 'eked on the land side, fled in all directions, leaving their guns and ammunition be hind them.
