NARRATIVE (Sy AUTHORITY) OF THE MOVEMENTS OF THE 421) ROYAL HIGHLAND REGIMENT ON THE 21ST OF MARCH, 18oi. On the morning of the at ft of March, the pie evicts of the referve had given their fire and retir ed, when Brigadier General OAKLS ordered the left wing of the 42e1 to advance. Ma STIRLING, who commanded this wing, gained t he left of the redoubt, in which the 28th regiment had taken poll and were engaged, when he immediately en countered the enemy in fronk They were at this time endeavouring to force the redoubt, the ruins and the corps which communicated from thence to the fca. To the left of the Major's pofition, the road from Alexandria to Aboukir, pallet through A confideral .7 1 .2 holl ow which feparated the 42d from the Guard., a (pace which was unoccupied by any troops in the firft line. On this road the Officers of the Light Company defcried, and gave information of, a column of the enemy, dirating its march up o n their flank, and having with them a ftandard and a field piece. The Major himfelf foam after afcertained this column to be French, ' and dire led the Officer commanding the Light Company, to be ready to form front to his flank, in cafe any attempt fhould be made to turn it.— The firing at this time was very (mart, both in his front and to the right. Palling by the rear, he had jut reached the right of the wing he commanded, when he heard a dif charge of grape, and on returning rapidly to the left, law a French battalion in his rear, with a field piece and fix lunges, and two loaded camels behind them. Conceiving himfelf likely to be placed between two fires, he did not hefitate to or der the wing to face to the right about, and charge. The order was obeyed with a fpirited promptnefs, which infured the dircornfiture of part of thiscorps, and obtained poffeffion of the gun. The head of the enemy's column, followed by Major STIRLING, dirated its movements on the ruins, and was met by the right wing of the 42d, under Lieutenant- Colonel ALEXANDSR STEWART, who here joined iu the conflift. Thus pellet], a part of the column fought ()lei ter in the ruins, which they entered, receiving the fire of fume companies of the 58th regiment. The 4:d, at this time, doled in with them, and their ftandard was taken from the bearer by Major STILLING, who configned it in charge to a non commiffioned Officer. The furvivors of the enemy immediately furrendered, and were marched pd. loners to the beach, by Enfign lite Las, of the 42d regiment. Both wings of the 42d, now quitting the ruins, formed battalion, under the orders of Lieut.-Col. A. ST MART, and proceeded to the ground which the left wing had occupied at the commencement of the aelion, on the left of the 28th redoubt. Along with the 28th, the regiment was now engaged in oppoling the repeated attempts of the enemy to force the redoubt ; attempts repeated elf°, in the fame manner, by frefh bodies endea vouring to come round its left, apparently to break the line of the 42d, and force the redoubt. The column in front kept up a heavy fire, ad vancing at the fame time, when Sir RALPH Asia. came ay coming up to the 42d regiment, gave or ders that the enemy fhonld not be allowed to gain the height. Orders were at that moment given by Lieutenant-Colonel A. STEWART to charge. which was inflantly done, and the French Infantry were driven dawn the declivity to a confiderable diflance in front, and left of the pofition of the referve. They retreated through the intervals of their cavalry, who were now ohferved, as the fmoke cleared away, clofe to the left of the 4.2 d. The exertions of this charge had difordered the line, and Lieutenant Colonel A. STEWART judging that the enemy's cavalry were preparing to charge in turn, ordered the 4sd to form quickly on the grenadiers, and prepare to receive them. This moment was related by the enemy for a defperate charge. It was doubtlefs a moment in which a regiment, preffing dole on a retreating enemy, cannot be Ampoled to be correCtly in line. The charge of the cavalry was made ea ragfi, and in force places penetrated the intervals which had been occiaioned by the movements to form on the grenadiers ; an order which,in the continued firing of mufketry, could not be diftinaly :ieard by the whole battalion. The right were protelted by the fire of the 28th on the redoubt, and Brigadier Ge ineral STRWART bringing up his brigade at this ; critical moment, his own regiment gave the enemy a chafe and well dire/led fire, which allowed time to the 4ad to join their efforts to thole of the reit of the referve and of the foreign brigade, in repel i i n s the cavalry. This fervice was fpeedily sc. I compliffied with the effect lb ted in the difpatches ' of the Commander in Chief. The reit of the adion confided in &sup (hooting and cannonading, as Rated in the fame difpatches. The non-eommiffioned Officer (Serjeant Sur cease ), to whom the flandard was given in charge, was wounded in the rear of the regiment, and by him the flandard was 101 l The 42d refleft with great tatisfadion on the prompt and effective fupport they received from the 28th Regiment, the Flank Companies of the 4oth Regiment, the 58th Regiment. and Rtieen's German Regiment, with whom they more imme diately aded. The above narrative was drawn up from infor.i mation furnifhed by the Officers concerned, and at their define it has been fubmitted to our infpeflion; and we declare it conformable to our bell obferva tion and recollection of the fads.
