Sir,-4 have had the honnur of informing your Excellency, that the enemy 'effected his pass:le across the Detroit river on the tilt.. without opposition, and that after establishing himself at Sandwich, he, had ravaged the country as tar as,the Moravia town. Some skl mislies occurred between the troops. under Lieutenant-Colonel sr. Geor;:e.iw.d the enemy upon the river Canard, ;which uniformly ter. Initiated in his being repulsed with loss. 1 judged it proper to detai.ft a force down the river •I'hati es, capable of acting.in conjunction with the garrison of Anilitrtsburg offensively; but Captain Chamber:, whom I • had appointed to direct this detachment, experience:, diffi culties that frustrated my intentions. The intelligence received trona that quarter admitting of no delay, Colonel.Protter was directed to assume the command, and his force was soon attcr increase:! with 60 rank and tile of the -list regiment. In the mean time, till most strenuous measures were adopted to counteract she machinations of the evil-disoused and I soon ex perieuced ti.e gratification of receiving voluntary .otters of service from that portion of the embodied Militia the most easily collected. In the attaintwnt of this important point, Gentlemen of the first cha ' racter and influence sheaved an example highly creditable to them ; and I cannot on this occasion avoid mentioning the essential assistance I derived from John M'Donell, Esq. iris ivlajeSty's Attorney-General, who, from the beginning of the war, has honoured me with his services as my Provincial Aide-de-Camp. A sufficiency of • boats being collected at Long Point for the conve.yaoce of three hundred men,• the embarkation took place on the Sth instant, and in five day( ' arrived in safety at A mliersibtire. I tbund that the judicious arrange ment, whiCh had been - adopted imtnediately upon the arrival of Colonel Proctor, had compelled the enemy to retreat, and take shelter under_ the tetws of his fort : that officer commenced operations by sending strong tkiachments across the river, with a view a cutting off the enemy's communication with his reserve. This produced two smart skitmishee on the sth and 9th instant, in botla.of Which the enemy's hiss was very consideiable, whilst. ours amounted to three killed, and thirteen wounded ; amongst the latter I have parric.ularly to regret CaPtain,Muir. and Lieutenant Sutherland, of the 41st regiment ;. the former an offieer of great experience, and both ardent in his NI ajes. ty's serVice.. Batteries had liken - rise been commenced opposite Yore Detroit, for one eighteen-pounder, two fwelire, and two five and an half inch mortars; all of which opened on the evening of the 13th (having previously summoned Brigadier-General Hull to surrendnr; ; and although opposed by a well-directed fire from seven twenty-Cur pounders, such was their construction, under the able directions L,f Captain Dixon of the Royal Engineers, that .no injury was sustained from its eti::ct. • : The force at my dispcsal king . collected in the course of the 13th. in the n.ighbourhood of Sandwich, the embarkation took place a little after .fat light - on the following moaning, and by the able tir rangements of Lieutenant Cewar of the Quarter -Master-General's Department, the whole was, in a short tune, landed without th e smallest con tusion at. Spring \A e 1, a . good position, three miles west of. Detroit. The Indians, who had in the mean tittle aliment their lauding two miles below, moved forwards and occupied the wood-, about a mile and a half on our left. The force,. wh i ch I instantly directed to march against the enemy, consisted of thirty Royal .Artillery, two hundred and fifty -11 st tegi tifty Royal Newfoundland tement i ,four hundred Militia, and about six hundred Indians, to whi ch were, attached three 6-pounders and two 3 pounders. The services of Lieutenant Trotighton, .corn manding the Royal Artillery, an active and intellig . ent officer,..heing. required in the field, the direction of the batteries was intrusted to Captain Half, and the marine department ; and I cannot withhold my , entire approbation of thoir conduct on this occasion. I crossed the river, with an intention . of waiting in a stton position the cheer of our farce upon the enemy's camp, and in the -hope of compelling him. to Meet us in the field ; but receiving inforniation upon landing, that C.,lorel M' Arthur, an officer or high reputat:ioi, had left riee' garrison three days befoie with a deeactunzitt of live hundred men, and hearine soon afterwards that his cavalry had ntrik seen that morning three miles in our rear, I decii.ted rattan immedian:• attack. Accordinily the troops advanced to within one 11 4 1 40 t tort, and having ascertained that the enemy taken little r ite Fri:* caution towards. the . land-aide, I re s olved on an assault, w h ilst the Indians penetrvel his Camp: it rigadiek General Hull, hoWeve'a prevented this moveme nt, by proposi n g a cessation of itos:ilities,' the purpose of preparing terms of ceputdation.
