Extraa of. a letter from Rear-Admiral Stirling, to
William Marsden, Esq . dated on board the Diadem,
gif Monte Video,'Plarch Ig, 1807.

SIR,

I have the honour to inclose a Letter from Capt.
Palmer, of His Majesty's Sloop Pheasant, acquaint-
ing me with a detachment of the Army, under
Lteutenant-Colonel Pack, having taken possession
of Colonia del Sacramento.

The Troops had embarked for the Expedition on
'the gth instant, but owing to blowing' weather, the
loss of one of the Transports, and foul winds, the
Squadron under Captain Palmer could not sail until
the 13th. •
I have the Honour to be, &c.
CHARLES STIRLING.
His Majesty's Sloop Pheasant, Colonia
Sia, Harbour, March- 16, 1807.

It was not before yesterday afternoon that the
Vessels you put under my direalion were able to
reach this anchorage, owing to baffling winds, and
owe times heavy squalls with rain. A Flag of
Truce was-sent on shore previous to the disembarka-
tion of the Troops, announcing the sentiments of
.your's and Sir Samuel Auchmuty's Proclamation to
the Inhabitants at Monte Video; and about half-
past five the detachment of the 95th were landed ;
the weather- at that time was so unfavourable, with
heavy rain,. that Colonel Pack deferred landing the
remainder till this day, as not a single gun, nor any
force, was here to oppose him ; and the rest of the
light Brigade, with the Artillery, were landed this
morning. The Commandant of the ToWn, and a
Ca-ptain of the Militia, the only Military here,
escaped before the Troops -landed ; they 'were both
Natives of this Town. _

I have the Honour to be; &c.
J. PALMER.

of the 11'/dte, and Commander in Chief,
