lira—Since I last did myself the honour of addressing you
Brigadier 111•Creanh, and the European part of the detachment
sent against (;lieduba have returned to head-quarters, having
fully executed the urders given ha me, agreeable to the instruc-
tions I had received from the Right Ilem. the fiovernor-tlene-
ral in Council; the able and satisfactory manner in which Bri-
gadier carried on the operations entrusted to hint. will
appear by the inclosed report, and the remit has been such as
might have been expected from the judicious arrangements of
that experienced officer.
(laving completed my arrangements for striking a blow upon the
enemy's force assemblid here ; on the morning of the 11th inst.
although the weather continued most unfavourable, I moved upon
the enetny's fortified camp and stokades at Keinmendine. with
about a,INul into, four eighteen pounders, four mortars and some
field pieces, sending two die is.one of vessels up the river to prevent
the enemy from escaping on that side. It was my intention not to
lose a man if it could be avoided. The enemy had already frt.
quently experienced the irresistible influence of the British bayonet,
and it was now my wish they should rho know that we had still
other and perlespa more dreadful means of exterminating them in
every stockade they might lie found in. The country, season and
roads rendered the undertaking extremely arduous, but not beyond
the inexhaustible spirit of such soldiers as I command. About
two mites from town, the head of the edema was stopped by a
stockade apparently very strong and full of men : I ordered two
heavy guns and Rome field pieces to open it. while the trove stir.
rounded it on there sides, but the jungle was an very thick and
dose as to prevt nt the tosaibility of altogether cutting off the gent.
risen. In less than half an hour a considerable gap wan made in
the outward defences of the work, and the defendants not daring
anywhere to alit yr themselves, I ordered a part of the Madras Eu-
rupean Iteginieut, supported by part of the 4lst Regiment, to
charge, and the work was immediately carried, with a trifling loss
on our part, the enemy leaving 140 men dead on the ground.
Major Chalmers leading the Ruppert of the llst Regiment, and
one of the first men in the breach, received a wound in the face
from a spear, which lam happy to say is not dangerous. While
this was going on tinder my own eye, a very spirited and success-
ful attack was made on the other side of the stockade, by the ad-
vanced conipenies of die 13th and Roth Re-inierins, who by awdat.
ing each other up the face of the stnckade (at least ten feet high),
entered about the same time as the party by the breach, putting
every man to death who opposed their entrance ; and it afie.rds me
pleasure to state that die first nian who appeared on the top of
the weak, was, I believe, 3lajor Sale, of his Majesty's 13th Light
Infantry.
This point gained, the column again moved forward nearly a
mile where our kit wan posted. communicating with the flotilla on
the river about half a mile under the great stockade and fortified
camp: the head of the column moving up to the right with great
toil and labour, through the thick and tenacious jangle, fur the pur-
pose of again reaching the river above the stockade, and thus com-
pletely investing the enemy's great strong hold. In this I was
partly disappointed, the enemy having thrown up other works above
the stockade, which would have expensed me right to certain Ina.,
and not being stile to invest the whole of the enemy's extensive for-
tifications. I was tinder the necessity of leaving al con a hundred
yards, between our right and the neer, unoccupied ; hut as the
principal work appeared full of men, anintating each ether with
loud and boisternua cheering I still hoped they would remain till the
inipren.inn I intended had been made. At 4 p.m. my troops were
in position in many places within a h teed yards of the place; but
in all parts with a very thick jungle in front, extending to the very
button: of the stockade. The night passed in erecting batteries
and making preparations fee opening the guns at daylight next
horning; the i nemy contir.uing loud and incessant cheering till
after day-lighe in the morning. The moment we hail sufficient
light on the following day, a heavy and well-directed fire was
opened from our breaching mortar batteries. which was kept up for
nearly two hours, when a party advancing to observe the breach,
fund the enemy, during the cannonade, had evacuated the place,
carrying off their dead and wounded. The chain of posts occupied
by the enemy rendered flight at all times easy, and the thickness
of the jungle necessarily prevented our observing when it took
place,
The Stockade, you will observe by the actompanying plan is ore
of great strength. and capable of being obstinately defended. It
was garrisoned by time most desperate crews of the enemy's war
boats, and it comet be doubted that the dreadful example of the
day before, and awful effects of our opening firing, alone could
have induced men possessed (at the Burniese unqueationaaly are)
of great penal courage, to give it up.
fhe object I had in view has thus been fully accomplished ; a
general pause and terror of our arms at present prevail amunn the
trope la.ely opposed to us, and front one ew two reconnoireriN par-
ties which have since been out, I find that every stockade in our
neighbmirhood has been evacuated, and I have reason to think the
enemy has retired to some distance from our front.
I continue to receive ev.wy assistance and comperation from f'ap-
tain Manyat, It.N. and the ships employed under his command.
