General BitiNNIAR knowing that MASSIMA had been routed, and fore seeing that he was cut off from all hopes of relief, made a speech to the garrison, in which he com- Municatad to them the disastrous state to which they were reduced, and that he was of tapirtion the place should be abandoned. Yesterday at eleven at u►ght he farmed t he garri- son, which did not exceed 1000 men, upon. the es planade, and told them, that wilt) so ;rifling 41 force he could accomplish nothing—that , marching in a body they.would bn known by the enemy, and that therefore every man would tetire as he thought best. The fortress.was mined, and the moment the ene my retired, the Crain' was lighted. Our Picqucts im mediately met - the fugitives, took 400 prisoners, among them the commander of the place, the In spector of Reviews, it Physician, and various assist , ants; a Captain, who was killed, and other oMeers, The remainder escaped,' favoured by the darkness of the night. • " .
