Fort of Buenos at ere*, July 2.
SIR—I had the honour to communicate to u,
by my ;enter dated the 30th April, the circumstances
ei -ase#. anima at St. Hailllll. -fele the re.lt of rho
application to the Honourable the Governor ei that
place, lA. troops.
The fleet titled thence the 2.1 of May, and, after
a most anexpefted long passage, made Cape S.
Mary on the Bth of J one. His Majesty's ship Nar-
cissus had been dispetche from the fleet on the
Vila of May, and str H. Popham thomTht h right
to proceed in her for the purpose of mak-04 himself
acquainted with the navigation of the river, that no
&day might occur in proceeding immediately, on
the arrival of the troops, to each pl :ce as our in-
k/dilution should first Isidore u. to att tek. I had
ANA Captain lieune.t, of the Royal tiviiteers (not
'dung my,eif to leave the troops), in the Narci-sus,
to make each reuttnoitering of the enemy's places
on tie tie r as circumstances wood,' admit, an f to
calls) every possible information concerning them,
and the streagth of the enemy at the severafploces.
From fogs and brain?, winds, we did not inset the
Narcissus timid t .e ti is day after our arrival in the
river, and I had there the sati;taiffion to see in com-
pany with her the Ocean transport, Which had
parted Irons us previous to pear going to St. He-
lens. Sir 1-1. Popham and I then cc/limited whether
it would be better first to attack the town of St. Phi-
lip, of Monte Video, or Buenos Ayres, the'capital of
the provinces ; and, after much reasoning, we deter•
tem.:toed to proceed against Buenos Ayres, which
made it necessary to remove from the line of battle
ships, the troops And marines, and such seamen as
were incorporated with the latter, and others that
had been pralbsed to arms during the passage, into
the transports and His Majesty's ship Narcissus,
which was effeaeal on the 16th nit ;and though then
only aboot 90 mi'es from Buenos Ay:es, still,
though to his skill Sir How Popham added the most
persevering zeal and assiduity, yet from fogs, the in-
tricacy of the navigation, and continually opposing
winds, it was not, lentil the 24th, at night, that we
reached opposite to it. We found ourselves the nest
morning about eight miles from the Point of
9tiilntes, where I proposed lending, having been in-
formed by an Englishman, who was pilot for the
river, and who had been taken by the Narcissus out
of a Portuguese vessel, that it was an exellent place,
and an coal access from it into the country. As
soon a; thi wind would permit, on the 25th, Sir H.
Popham took the shipping as near as it was possible
for them to go, and at a convenient distance for dis-
embatliing, which was effefted in the course of the
afternoon: and night, and without a .y opposition ;
the enemy remaining at the village of Reduftion, on
a heig.tt about two miles from us in front—the whole
intermediate space, as well as to the right and left,
being a pedal flat ; but my gnide informed me,
that though in winter it was impassable, it was then
very ptaaicable, and easy for guns to pass.
It was eleven o'clock in the morning of the 26th
