I do Myself the honour to enclose a copy if a Letter addressed to me by. Captain and Brigadier ilall, the officer in charge of the army fiotilyay giving an acComit of a descent which he conduCt ed on theenerny's coast, for the purpose of de stroying various aitieles-, the contribution of Lower Calabria, which were collected at Pietra Nero, in-order to be forwarded to Naples. The af fair was well conducted, and has-been attended with complete success. - I have the honour. to be,,Rze. W. C. BENTINCK. To Earll34thurst, &c. &e. &c. MY LORD, Messitia, July t 2, 1812. I haVe the honour to inform your Lordship that several large armed vessels having' assembled. at Pietra Nero, for the purpose of , carrying to Na ples the contribution of Lower Calabria, in oil, silks, &c. &c. I conceived it an object to attempt their destruction. For this purpose I selected three hundred seamen, and trained ,theavto the management of small arms ; end having received infoimation of the.enethy's being ready to depart, I left Messina with a light division of the flotilla and landed dear Pietra Nero ; but the enemy ing"heard of our intention.wei%c so completely pre- . paired, that. I found it necessary, after some. skis- mishing, to re4mbark. The 'division of ,gun boats of Captain Natoli appearing at this 'moment, I called them to our assistance, and again,attacked the enemy, who - had now assembled a very consi derable force, consisting of the 3d Neapolitan re giment of the line, commanded by Colonel Patris, a troop of cavalry and Polish lancers, the legion aries of Palmi,' and all the armed peasantry of the vicinity; - independent of the crews of the armed vessels, each of which bad two heavy gnus in her bow, which they fired, hoisting French colours on our approach. Two batteries of three thirty six pounders commanded the beach within a few yards. The quick and well-directed fire of the gun-boats soon silenced the fire of the batteries, and, tinder the cover of grape and musketry, I put on shore the small-arm men, and about thirty of Abe foreign corps of marine artillery, Who advanc ed in an admir4ble style: against the enemy's line, and beat them up the hill, destroying a number, and making others prisoners.; at this time an other division of seamen disembarked, and in a few minutes eleven large vessels laden with silk, &e. &c. were in flames, or blown up; and the guns in.both batteries spiked and diSabled.' . From the different reports of the prisoners, there could not be less than twelve hundred men, assembled at Pietra Nero to protect their vessels, and the French General Itlanl;e, having had inti mation of our intention, had himself; on the day previous to the "attack, visited the defences .of Pietra Nero, pilule the olficer commanding,there acquainted witiconr object, and was hiMself on the pot during the attack. .YoUr Lordship th'erefore be , :ble to form a...judgment of the ardour and gallantry of our men, so very inferior in num : , hers, and having .to act against a regularly or ganized body ; no men could behave better than the seamen of the flotilla and the marine artillery on' this occasion. Of the former I regret to pay, that three have been, killed and, seven wounded; of the latter, two killed and seven wounded. Four . officers and thirty-six privates .have been made priioriers, belonging to the enemy's artillery and 3d 'regiment; three others deserted to us from the enemy's ranks, and joined. our men in the - pursuit. • Lieureaant-Colonel. Lucchesi and Captain:Na tOlkvere very active, and Colonel Robinson played off Congreve's rockets to -good effect among the cavalry. No damage has been received by the boats of the flotilla.

MY LORD, Montreal, Aug. 6, 18152. I ferg'the greatest satisfaction_ in transmitting,to your Lordship-a-Jet - ter which I have this day re eeived by expmn ,i-Fuii' 4 .\lajor-Generil Brock, an 4 uouucing to me the surrender of Fort Detreit,,on tbc 16th hist - Psi?, hyl:Crigadier-General Hull,.with the army under bis command-, exceeding two thou= sand five hundred men, together with twenty-five pieces of ordnance.' - - In my dispatches of the 17th And 24th instant, I bad the honotit of detailing to your igordship the operations Which bad taken place in Upper Canada, in consequence' of the invasion of that Province by the army of the United States, Briga dier7General HuII havingcrossed tbeDetroit River on the 12th of last mouth, with two thousand three hundred men, consisting of regular cavalry and infantry, and militia, bringing with him seve ral field-pieces ; and having driven in the militia towards Aruherstburg, *first advanced to Sandwich, and afterwards approached Amherstsburg with a part of his arravfm.he River Canard, about five miles from* tort, - w . here he Was foiled in threw attempts river, and suffered a consi derable loSv 7 ,- : - .crhe•-gairison of Amherstburgh -con sisted at,that4inio.of a subaltern's detachment . of the royal artillery, commanded by Lieutenaut Troughton ; of a detachment' of three hundred men of the 4 istregiiiient, under. the command of Capt Muir, and of . about as, many of the militia; the whole under the command of Lientenant-Col. St,.George,' inspecting Seld=officer of militia ins the district. "7 General Brock, , relying .upon the strong assur ances I- had given him of a reinforcementas prompt and as effectual as, the circumstances under which I was placed by this - new War would permit me to send, :adopted the most vigorous measures for the Safety of th4 i retiok r the 'frontier which had been ; attacked, 1 1 u these.measures be was most oppor tunely aided liOle'lntinnate. surrender of Fort Miehilimachittaep s itilfthili giving spirit and confi dence to the Indian tribes in. its neighbourhood, part of whom had assisted in its capture, deter mined them to advance upon the rear and Ranks of the American army, as soon as they heard that it hadd - entererl the Province. - The certainty of the expected reinforcements, and the weakness of the enemy on the Niagara Frontier, had, in the mean time induced General Brock to detach from die garrison of Fort George fifty men of the -forty-.first regiment, under Capt. .chambers into the interior of the country, for the purpose of collecting such of the Indians and Mi litia as might be ready to join him, and of after., wards advancing upqn-the left flank of the enemy . Sixty men of. 0 ppe r resiment were also. detach _ garrisoned from that gall to Athherstburg, and fortt l , to Long Poititqio trolled the militia in that gnar l ter. Having rte the s. dispositions,"and having previously sent forward _Colonel Proctor of the forty-first regiment to . .Amherstburg, where be arrived and assimied the command on the twenty sixth of last month; General Brock proceedee_ himself from York On,the sth instant, for Fort St. George and Long Point on Lake Erie, which, last place he left on the Sth following for Am hersthurg.with forty rank and file of the fortyfirs* regiment, and two hundred and sixty of the farces. Whilst General Brock was thus hastening preparations for the relief of Amherstburg, tt t prospects of the American army under Gen. Hu were becoming every day more unfavourable, and their situation more critical. The intelligence ok the fall of Michilimachinac had reached them which they knesy must expose them to an attack of the Indians on PO quarter, at the same time that they were theOtteened 7 Pn another by the force approaching untilit‘iC%ptain Chambers, an Indian tribe of the W....,atlibts,,whom they had in vain at,• tempted to bribe, 'etaea by a detachment of 41st". regiment fronf.A.-infierithurg", had succeeds in cutting off their supplies on the opposite side c the river, and in intercepting their dispatches, which described in very strong terms their ap.fre hensions'and despondency.. The losses they had sustained in their different actions, upon the Ca- Bard River, as well as those for protecting their supplies, together with the mode of warfare pur sued by the Indians, had greatly discouraged and dispirited them, and bad convinced Gen. Hull how hopeless any attempt would be to storm Fort Am herstburg, without great reinforcements and a battering train. It was under these circumstances at this eriti,:a period, and when the enemy were beginning tc consult their security by entrenching themselves, that General Brock -entered Ainherstburg with a reinforcement, he was fortunately enabled to do on the 12th. instant. without the smellest
