(Llf, inftead of want of confidence, YOU had found the troops fully confident in their general, and you h a d realms , to think their confidence well placed, would you have thought yourfelf 'unified in approv. , ing the furrender of Monte Video, under Cie circura. (lances in which the army was then placed ? A. I, fhould have liefitated much, but I flili think I (Lout& Q .: If General Whitelocke's inftrati ins were not to abandon Monte Video, except in cafe of neceffity. are you of opinion, that on the 6111 t f July that cafe of neceffity had occurred in a military view, to juilify the abandonment of Monte Video ? A. I think :hat tieceffity had arrived in a militar y view, providcd,i better terms could not he obtained. Q .: Are you of opinion then that the Biitiflt force at Buenos Ayres, Dint e s, on the Gth of July, with the g.,,, i fon left at Monte Videa, was not, in a military p of view, fufficient to maintain poffeffion of Monte Video ? A. A much lets number of men could have m aintained Monte Video, it they had been in gun fon there. Q . Are you of opinion that the garrifon could not have been fupplied with provifions tither from the counts yor from the Upping ? A. lam very deci dedly of orini 1n that the country would have been flint np from them , and th e y mutt have been fupplied throug,h the means of !hipping —l mean by ftores and p r ovifions being brought from other ports. I k no w there would have been a di ffi culty in procuring poovill,ns from the Cape and from the Brazils, altho ' I got f me from both immediately on taking Monte Video. I opened the port to all neutral , bringing provifions for 12 months, and I thought a fupply would have come from America, of flour particu- rally. Q : Are you of opinion that it would have been impoffible so have obtained a fupply of provifions, fufficient for the garrifon of Monte Video through the [hipping ? A. I have already Rated that there would have been Come difficulty and uncertainty about it, but I fairly and candidly own, I believe the garrift n might have been fupplied. Q : If there were mare troops than fufficient to gatrifon Monte Video, and that garrifon might have been fupplied with provifions, explain your meaning in Rating, that the nscellity had arrived in a military point of view, for a bandoning Monte Video ? A. That garrifon was before Buenos Ayres, and the dif ficulty, the danger and the difgrace, of retreating before a vinorions enemy and 'embarking, is chat I meat by laying the neceflity had arrived. Q L Was the Britifis force remaining out of the town on the 6th of July, able to combat and defeat any force that might have been brought againft it by the Spaniards out of the town ? A. If they met them Nay in the field—molt certainly—it was fufficient when united. Q. Was the Btitifh force, after the jun:lion with Colonel Mahon, adequate in a military point of view to the maintenance of the Plaza del Toros ? A. Cer tainly it was. Q Would not the Spaniards meeting the Britifh troops fairly in the field, have been the neceffary con fequence of any attempt made by the Spaniards to interrupt General Whitlocke's retreat and reimbar kation ? A. It certainly would not have been a necef- Cary confequence. Q._ Would not Redunion have been a favourable poll TA retreating to, making Point de Qliltnes the place of reimbarkation, and the Chuello the line of defence ? A. If the army had been obliged to retreat, I should fuppofe that the Point of Qt!ilroes below the town, or the Conchae above the town, would have been the proper place for reimb?rkation. Q Would not the confequence of adopting either cf there plans been, that the army mutt have been fafely reimbarked, or brought on a general anion ? A. I am of opinion we mutt have (uttered -a very material lofs, and I do not think a general Jlion would have taken place. The enemy would have had it in their power to harafs very much without a gene ral anion, and might probably have attacked the rear after the greater part of the troops were embarked. The (hips were (even miles off, nor could they come 1 much-nearer. The Court will.allow me to obferve, they mutt be aware of the fuperiority of a corps of 5000 men well found and equipt is all refpens, and i full of confidence, energy and vigour ; and how (lit ; fetent that would have been from the miferable Rate of the corps I have defcribed. Q L. How near could the ['hipping, but particularly the gun brigs and gun boats, have approached the Point of Q2ilmes ? A. I cannot particularly fay.— The gun boats could have come near the Wore, but the (hipping could not. • 4 • Q ... lbii the opinion you gave upon ta z treaty in clude any approbation of the conduit which led the army into the hate it was in on the 6th of July ? Here General Whitelocke gave in a written objec tion, Rating that if the queftion applied to the plan of attack only, he would not objeit to it ; but if it extended to his conduit during the whole. period of the expedition, he certainly obj ened to its r . The Judge Advocate Rated that he meant the quellion to apply generally to the whole of General Whitelocke's conduit, and gave it as Isis opinion, that it was pettedly fair to put fuch a •queftion to a general of Sir Sanwel Auchtuuty's-high,charatiber and diftinguilhed talents. Gen. Whitelocke then gave in a long written thing of objeitions to any general opinion being•giien or Aced in the evidence of the wipe's*.

Major KING called. . ..... 1A 4 i I commanded the left wing of the sth regiment, pit the attack of Buenos Ayres. In confequence of %he inffruelions I received on the evening o f the 4 th, I formed the column at the appointed hour aqt spor. flings and advanced into the flreet pointed unx.toss. Ott entering the ffreet, I ordered the front rank W. 'charge, and on our advance, the enemy abandoned 1 four pieces of cannon, hav in g (piked them , and fhoti the bodes attached to them befog leaving them.— , They retreated apparently from the left, and the co- lumn reached the liver without further oppofition I then retired the column for about fifty paces, and looked around for fame h oufes to occupy. firing then commenced upbo us, and I ordered my men to I load. We then broke open a houfe upon our right, ' and difplayed our colours upon the roof. During this time I he.trti a tremendous firing in the direeliat of the ?ilea del Toros, and between nine and ten , o'clock it entirely ceafed. About twelve o'cl,,ck, fame of my men reported that they faw the French flag flying upon a houfe to the right. I accord ugly led my men out ; but as we advanced, we received fo heavy a fire that we were obliged to fall back, and broke open a houfe on our left, into which I put th e wounded. We then advanced a fecond time, bur fuftained fo heavy a loft, that we were obliged to ie. 're into the houfe once more." TWENTY FIRST DAY. Major KING continued his Narrative. " I entered into the co" yard of the houfe, detach ed an officer with the wounded, to where I had left the furgeon, and I alfo recoefled a reinf ',cement from Col. Davy. I was then joie ed by a few more men ; at the fame time I received a mt:frige from Brigadier General Lumley , Ratin g that I covered his right. The men (till expreffed a great deal of ardour, and I again determined to attack the houfe, on which the French flag was displayed ; and advan ccd ; but found the offenfivc and defentive means of the enemy fo much foperior Co mine, that notwith Handing my fu poling, from the peculiar circum. Rance of the French flag flying over the houfe, it might be occupied by Tome officers of importance to the enemy, I was obliged again to retire to the court yard of the houfe I had left. The enemy had two pieces of cannon at the upper end of the greet, which they were prevented from working, by our men. The tops of the houfes were c •mpletely cc. copied by the enemy, and it was in their power to dellroy our men, with little danger to themfelves— we could only occafionally fire with any effect, when their heads were feen above the parapet ; added to which, the difficulty of breaking open the doors was extremely great. Obferving the attempt to get into the above mentioned houfe was totally impraBicable, and that the enemy might overcome me by fuperior numbers, I remained where I was. Having previ. oufly fent off the wounded, I retired to a fireet where I found a detachment of the 36th ; fhortly after, Captain Ridge, of the sth, informed me that a body of the enemy were advancing from the upper end of the greet. I formed the men, for the purpofe of advancing to charge them. On approaching them, I obferved an officer with a white handkerchief in his hand ' • I ordered the men to halt , and remain r eady at their charge, and my front extended acrofs the itreet. By this time the enemy were very dole. I advanced to the officer, who had alfo halted his men. From him I underilnod he furrendered hirnfelf and party as prifonets of war. I &fired them to lay down their arms, and feizing two or three of the firelocks, threw them to the ground. Ob. ferving the prifoners greatly exceeded us in num bets and menacing my party, liourilhing their fwords 1 and - pinols, jun at this moment one of them was , prefeated at me, one of the sth flepped forth, and made a thtuft with his bayonet at the officer I was talking to. He flatted afide, and the bayonet did him no injury. Obferving that he had not laid down his arms, I demanded his fword, which he immedi ately gave. At the fame moment the officer who Tarried the colours informed me the enemy had' at tempted to feize it. I immediately ordered the sten to charge, and the enemy Red as fall as pof libiro,• leaving a few killed behind them. Nothing material occurred after this: we proceeded to break , open the houfes, according to orders ; and when in the aft of breaking Tone open, I received an order from General Lumley to retire to the Plaza del Tors, which we did about three o'clock." • Oa his examination by the Court , ht noted t hat his awing had fume regimental pioneers' tools a crow. bar, and a mattock or two found in the ft% burhs of Buenos Ayres. Lieutenant Colonel Davy called. I commanded the right wing of the fifth regiment, in the attack upon Buenos Ayres. We proceeded at half pan fix, on the morning of the sth, down the (item pointed out the evening before by Sir Samuel Auchmuty.
