'fhe objects proposed by Captain Rowley and lieuttmant-Go lonel Keating in undertaking this enterps-ize were very consider able, and have succeeded in every point ; all the batteries, guns, and mortars, at St. Rosa, St. Paul's, St. Gill's, and St. Luce In the Island of Bourbon, have been sifecttially and coitni;etely de strayed, and in their harbours the enemy can uo lonzer arid that protection for their own ships or their captures, which they were accustomed to seek, %slum the rigour of the blockade opposed their entrance into the Isl.: of France..

I cannot forbear to observe to their Lordships that on the prey sent occasion the service has been particularly indebted to Captain eilzbott, of his I\l.lk:sty's ssrip Nt:reitle ; and on every_ sat aloe in which tie has been employed, he has displayed a zeal, activity, and uniecr,al abilities which are the lot of few, and which when united must distinguish their possessor. _ .

Sin—The harbour of St. Paul's having long been the rendezvous of those French otuizers, and such of their prizes as have escaped the vigilance of our WA. out ships off the Isle of France, and la Caroline French frigate having succeeded in entering that post with two homeward-bound Indian= richly laden, considered it practicable, both from the reports.odi Captain Corbett, of the Nereide, who is perfectly ac. quainted with the coast, as well as from myown asn servations,,and from information received from pi iso. viziers, that the place might be carried with the assist ance of a daachment of the troops from Itoderictie, to assist by land in to attack on the batteries. hue. ing communicated my opinion to Lieutenant-Colonet ];eating, commanding the troops there, .he imme diately acceded to the i n carve;, and in the most hand some manner offered to tribal k with all the troops that could be spared from tile defence of the place.-- - I have, therefore, detached the Nereide„ Otter, and iapphire, to bring them down ; and as soon as limy . arlive shall proceed with the whole of our force.to' the attack of . the place. I have in the - meantime bent the Boadicea to blockade the port, and trust that these measures will meet your approbation. I have the honour to be, &c. (Signed) J.

Willoughby, whose zeal induced him to volunteer the comm.tud of so small a party. As secrecy and dispatch were cs. • sential to the success of tile expedition, the whole of this force, amounting to 604, were embarked, with five additional boats, on board the Nereide, Captain Corbet, who, from his perfect acquaintance with the coast, as well as his known skill and activity, w a s in trusted with this important Service.
