Tho effect of this will be to Oace 150 on the retitled
list, and to reduce the active list to 324 'immediately,
to 320 ultimately. The two last paragraphs- of the re-
port are worthy of attention. They are as follow:
" We think it right to state to their Lordships that in
estimating the proposed pay of pursers, with reference
to their former emoluments, we should. have zonsidered
them (and particularly those of the higher rates) fairly
entitled to a larger amount, had we not taken into Con-
sideration the proposed increase of half-pay., pension,
and retirement. It is, therefore, as a whole that we
submit the above scheme to their Lordships' considera-
tion. -

" Finally, in the mature consideration which we have
given to a question involving subjects cf so great inte-
rest to the public service, we have been anxious, while
on the one hand to practise every,desirable economy, on
the other to stimulate the honour, fidelity, and diligence
of a class of officers on whom depends the faithful execu•
tion of the duties of a most important branch of the
naval service of the country, as well as the contentment
and comfort of the officers and seamen of her Majesty's
fleet." . _

- " Toe 911 of April I devoted to milling every (lisp.
onion for the landing of the troops, and to becoming ac-
quainted with the heads of the departments of the Ma-
dras division. I informed the Admiral on the evening
of that day that my preparations were complete, and
his Excellency proceeded up the river next day, close
off Rangoon. On the 11th the Admiral moved oppo-
site the old town, with the intention the next morn-
ing to bombard the whole line of stockades on both
banks of the river; but some of the ,flotilla getting
very near the shore, were fired on, which brought 'oil a
return from our side, and ended in the general destitm-
ticen of the- whole line of defrnces, though the fire of • the
enemy proved tam' to many on board the shipping. The
Admire' and Commodore took a most distinguiebed part
in the operations, lanaing and se ting
t fire to all around
them. '
This powerful attack from the steam frigates of
bet -her Mejesty'e and the East India Coinpany's navy
completely cleared the ground for nearly a mile for our
landing. On Monday, the 12th, at daybreak, the troops
were ready, and by about seven I had landed her Ma-
jeety'e 51st Light Infiutry, the 18th Royal Irish, the
40th Bengal Native Infantry, and tiart of my artillery.
The Bengal guns, under I,lajar Reid, were ordered to
move in advance, covered by four companies of the 51EL
Light Infantry. They had not proceeded far, however,
when, on opening some ri.ing ground to our right, guns
opened on us, end shortly lifter skirmishers showed
a
themselves in the jungle. This was new mou •
