These troops_ formed behind a ravine, established a battery, and towards morning marched-in co limns upon Denea, driving in the advanced posts, who slowly retired disputing the ground. The. Chief of the Artillery battalion, Bona foux, superior Commandant at Denea, had, from break of - day, discovered the enemy, and'. made with his garrison dispositions of defence, corn= posed of the 117th'Regiment.

This . double movement made the enemy recede ; who . precipi tately embarked their cannon, and approached the shore, ordering the boats to approach theLland. We pursued them with so much vigour, that theyleft four .killed and eight wounded on the heights of St. Nicolas,. and ran in crowds into the water, in order to escape more onickly' under the protection, of the fire ~of their vessels, and of the grenadiers of the "81st, who formed on the beach in order to' arrest us, but the French precipitated thernsclves • upon them with so much 'vigour, that they overthrew them, and caused them a considerable loss .before they could it-etn , bark.
