FROM SATURDAY NIGHTS GAZET'T'E.
---.00.--
This Gazette contains an extract of a letter from Captain Coe, of
his Majesty's ship Liffey, to John Wiliam Croker, Esq. dated at
Madras, the 13th of February. 1823, which letter contained de-
spatches received by Captain Coe from Captain Marryatt, of the
Larne, in the command of the Naval farce in the river Rangoon,
detailing various successful attacks on the enemy, while co-operat-
ing with the army ; and also despatches from Captain Chads, of
the Arachne, giving an account of many successful attacks he made
against the enemy, while its fbe command at Rangoon. Captain 1
Coe recommends, in the strongest terms, these offiarsand also
Lieutenants Kellett, Dobson, Fraser, Goldfinch, and Bazeley ;
Mr. Ather:on, purser ; Messrs. Duffed, Scott, and Lett, master's-
mates; and Messrs. Maw, WiIIIKK, Tomlinson, Mitchell, Reed
and Murray, midshipmen ; and adds, that Capt. Chads Teaks in
the strongest terms of Capt. Ryvee, from whom he received every
support and counsel. The first despatch, from Captain Marryatt,
contains an account of his having waisted the land forces with two
boats from the Larne, on the dtk of August, in an attack on a stock.
ads, which was taken In good style by the combined force. The
second despatch contains an account of the storming of a stockade
in Dallah creek, under a heavy Are Of the Burmese, who at length
fled into the jungle in every direction. A second stockade was
then taken possession of, without loss. Captain Marryatt, in this
despatch says, " I an, sorry Nam our list of wounded is so bLivy,
but it will be accounted for when I state, that in all these attacks,
the lascars, who man the otter boats, will not pull in to the fire,
unless they are led by the officiie-zurti seamen of. tali 11Injeaty's ship
Larne."
Captain Chad,' tint despettli.Odatea 7th November, contains an
account of the storming of the fort of Martaban. on the Mactaban
river, by 13i Nueopesess end Sepoys . The enemy fled in all
A.
directions, leaving great nuts a deal and wounded. Thirty of
their war-boats, some of them pulling fifty oats, and armed with
swivels, muskets, aid spears, mere also destroyed.
The second despatch is given in the Gazette as follows:
Extract of a letter from Captain Chads, of his Majesty's sloop
Arschne. to Captain Coe, dated Rangoon, kith December, 1024 :
On the 30th ult. the enemy's boats were seen by the nom ('orn.
pany's cruiser Teignmouth, at the advanced post above Kem-
niendine, coming down in great numbers, loaded with men. The
same evening they came forward with fire-rafts, which obliged the
Teignmouth to slip anti go below Kenimindine to avoid them
this unfortunately left that post exposed to a most furious attack on
every side, the enemy's war-boats on its front, but it was nobly de-
fended by its garrison, under Maine Yates, and the enemy repulsed.
On the next, day, Ist of December. the enemy were seen in great
numbers advancing towards Griffith, about five thousand melt ; and
they also surrounded the Dugan Pagoda, where a constant heavy
fire has been kept up. Captain !lyres, of the Sophie, in command
during my absence, procured a guard of one hundred sepoys from
the General for thetrsnsports, and placed this ship in her old sta.
lion, about smile and a half in advance of the shipping. to enfilade
' the Madras lines, and also ordered the Teignmouth back to her
station, to support the post at Kenimindine. At day-light Ire.
turned and found things in this state, with the exception of the
Teignmouth haying been again driven front her station dunng the
night by fire-rafts, and the post at Kenimindine again auliject to
futious and incessant attacks. I immediately sent the pinnace up,
under Lieutenant Kellett, and Mr. Pickey, Admiralty midshipman,
to gain information and reconnoitre, and shortly afterwards three
gun boats, under Mr. Covde, midshipman, with a party of my sea-
men to fight the guns; this assistance was most timely, as the
garrison was ',rely pressed in every direction ; from which critical
situation, Lieutenant Kellett's highly judicious and deteridned
gallant conduct immediately relieved then), by clearing both their
flanks of the enemy by showers of grape-shot. This service, per-
formed by a single boat, in the face of hundreds of the enemy's
boats, was the admiration of the whole garrison ; and Major Yates
Ilse expressed himself to me in terms the most gratifying, for the
able assistance Lieutenant Kellett afforded him.
The Teignmouth shortly afterwards resumed her station, and was
constantly engaged with the enemy's war.boats, which had long
guns in their bows, and annoyed her a great deal. In the after.
noon, finding the znemy were makingevery effort to gain that post,
and as it was of the last importance both in a military and naval
point of view, I ordered the Sophie up for Its support, with three
more gun-boats, and our party under Lieutrnant Kellett to remain.
Whilst this post is held, the enemy cannot annoy the shipping at
Rangoon by fire, as the distance is great, and the winding of the
river, with the fire-booms laid out, throw all the rafts upon the op-
posite side. The enemy upon the Dallah side having begun to
throw up works, I ordered the Satellite annal transport, in charge
of Lieutenant Dobson, of the Larne, with a party of seamen from ,
this ship, to the support of the Good tiorie transport, already for ,
some tints stationed there, and several of the small gun-vessels.
Thew vessels have been frusr:llrst to lit* (occasionally exchang-,
ing shots with eke enemy, dientestatimr Mob guns as hist as they
got them up ; and the commander of the Good Hope, 31r.
Hinny, is entitled to my best thanks for handsomely coming'
forward on this occasion, and fur the essential service he has
performed.
Early on the 3d the Sophie took her station off Kenimindine.
With die ebb the enemy again brought fire-rafts down, not
lighting them until within a very short- distance of the ships,
with their war boats firing their shot over them, to prevent the
approach of our boats. The Sophie cleared then), but the
'I eignmouth was touched, and on fire for a short time, with-
out damage. During this day the enemy became extremely
daring, finding their shot went farther than ours; upon which
I sent the Sophie two long nines, which kept them farther oft:
The enemy's boats becoming more bold, it was thought right to
endeavour to give them a check ; and Captain Ryves, thinking
they might be surprised, laid his plans accordingly, and succeed.
eal to the fullest extent. A report of this gallant attack I en-
close (No. 2). which will again bring to your notice officers I have
already mentioned to you for their good conduct. The result of
this defeat of the enemy'. war-boats has beets highly beneficial, not
one having ventured within gun-shot since. The two ships, how-
ever, have had their hands quite full, in keeping tip a constant fire
on the enemy attacking Kenimindine, anti throwing tip works
against them to mount guns in, which were dismounted as soon as
got up, without their having done any material damage. In the
evening Sir Archibald Campbell communicated to me his intention
to attack the enemy's left wing towards Pousaendown, and request-
ing a diversion to be,made by a naval force up that river. A re-
port which I enclose contains the details, and which ended in the
total defeat of that portion of the enemy's farce. 1
In the afternoon,findiog the enemy at Denali strengthening then.
selves, I sent the Powerful mortar-vessel over, and threw a few
shells, which had considerable effect.
On the dth, in the morning, finding the enemy still persisting in
his attack on Kenimindine, I sent the mount-vexed up there,
which rendered the poet very essential service, and relieved the gar-
rison considerably. 'Die enemy's war-busts still continue in sight
in great numbers, but at a respectful distance. On the 7th, in the
morning, the enemy were seen very busy with rafts and boats for
fire, and with the strong ebb they brought them down, reaching
nearly scram the river, but as their boats do not now venture close
they were fired earlier: they consisted of upward% of twenty-six
rafts and eight large boats, all lashed together. The Sophie just
touched the outside one without any injury, and held her ground.
At noon the troops at the pagoda male another sally, and carried
the whole of the enemy's entrenchments, taking their guns, amniu.
nition, &c.; on receiving this information, I immediately sent
every disposable man from the ship, under. Mr. Manly, the Mas-
ter, with twenty senor*, in the steam-vessel, up to Captain Ityves,
to endeavour to intercept their boats and cut oft their retreat ; and
in the night they went up far beyond Pagoda Point, without see-
ing above four or five small boats, the enemy having retreated, and
deserted the neighbourhood of Kenimindine.
Thus, Sir, has this formidable attack ended in the total &corn-
fiture of die enemy ; having called forth from the very small force
I have the honour to command, in mil instance, the greatest gal-
lantry and uniform good conduct, under the utmost exertions by
day and night, the greatest part of then) having been in the boats
since the starling of the expedition to l'aque, the %tit ult.
From Captain Ryves I have received all the aid and counsel that
• good and valuable officer could afford, and his determined peeve.
verance in holding his ground, when the tire.rafts came down, me-
rits the highest commendation ; and from his ready and zealous
co-operations with the post at Kemmindine, that place was greatly
relieved in the arduoss contest it wits engaged in,
Of Lieut. Kellett It annoy speak in terms sufficiently strong to
express my admiration of his uniform gallantry.
Lieut. Goldfinch's conduct has also been most conspicuous, toge-
ther with all the midshipmen named in my reports, not one of whom
but have shown individual acts of great bravery.
Also to Mr. Manly, master of this ship, who has, from necessity,
been frequently left in charge during my absence, I feel much in-
debted—These officers, the seamen, and marines, I had the plea-
sure to serve with, I earnestly beg to recommend to your most fa-
vourable attention.

The Report, N 0.2, states, that Captain Ryves having thought it
practicable to surprise the enemy's war-boats, which were annoying
the ships with their long guns, placed the whole of his disposable
force of Europeans, about seventy. wider the orders of Lieutenants
Kellett, Ooldlinch, and Clarke, with Messrs. Picker, Coyde, Scott,
and 31urray, midshipmen ; Mr. Clarke and 31r. Lindguist, is
charge of the gun-boats. This farce in boats pulled up the river
in the dark, attacked the enemy's war-boats, and captured the
greater part, the rest flying in the greatest contusion. The result
of this gallant exploit was the capture of seven large war.boats,
four of which carried long nines on the bow ; and on their return
they cut adrift, and brought down a large floating stockade. The
whole service was performed without the loss of a man..—The Re.
port 100. 11, states, that Sir Archibald Campbell, having wished for
• diversion to be made on the enemy's line posted on the Poussen.
down river, whilst he attacked:them in front, Captain Chads pro.
ceeded with the whole of bis disposable force, which was forty I'm-
ropeans, in gun.boats, to make an appearance, and opened a tire
from all the boats, with every appearance of landing, which brought
the enemy down in great force ; the enemy, who were then attacked
on the land aide, fled in all directions, leaving their guns and am.
munition behind them. Mr. Read, midshipman ; )Ir. Gushers,
boatswain, rendered much service.

The last despatch from Captain Cbads is dated Rangoon, 16th
December, 1824, and states, that within the last three days the
,teemy had recommenced offensive operations, particularly by an.
noying Captain Chitties force withlmdtense quantities of fire-rafts,
one of which consisted of upwards of sixty canoes, besides bamboo
rafts, all loaded with oil and combuttlbles. To destroy these pre

parations, he gave Lieutenant Kellett the command of a force con.
aiming of a stesin vessel anti pinnace, manned lay furt• Europeans,
with which he proceeded up the river beyond Pigott.% Point. where
he found at leas: two hundred of the enemy's witr.boats.land a raft
drawn arena the river, which they set cm lire, to prevent the ad-
vance of the }leash vessels.
An opening was found, and Lieutenant Kellett advanced to the
attack. and quickly put the enemy to flight, without the loss of a
man, the Steamer being stockaded for their security. Three of the
enemy's largest a•ar.boats were captured. and about forty other
boats, chiefly laden with ammunition anti provisions. The ene-
my's loss must have been very great. During these operations,
the Commander of the Forces, Sir Archibald Campbell, attacked
the enemy in the same direction. and gained a most brilliant victory
