inclo,sures (*Coin Lient.-General Drunimond, Cot.
Murray, and MajOr-General Riall, containing the
details of dr& capture of Fort Niagara, the'attacli
on Black Rock, Buffirki,--&c.. the principal parti-
culars of which have-ali•eady'been neade- known.
The' storming Of Fort Niagara,. by 1.4.ent.-General'
Drummond was ie singularly well executed eikter.-
prise. The ComMandant; -(.4pt: Leonard, boa,
gined the British had quitted the neighbourhood;
acid while 'reposing in full security, two piquets
were cut off, his sentries' on the glacis at the gate,
surprised, the watch-word obtained; and the fort
carried at the point of the rha3,onet. Sixty-five
of the enemy were killed,,,fiften: wounded, three
• hundred and-fifty regulars Maderprisoners, besides
the loss of the 'artillery, and' seventy-five pieces
of ordnance. The British, loss ,was Lieutenant
Noivlar;_ of the 100th re7inteui, and eight men
bicut.-Colonel I\furrayseverely, but tot
dangerously; Assistant-Surgeon -Ogilvy, slightly ;••
`and three privates wounded.. The attack snbse--
,qu-..-ntly on. Black Rock and Buffalo, at the former
ut which places the enemy had
.2000, men advan-
tageously posted, and from whence he was driven
by 1000 men under 11ijor--Geberal Riall, was •
equally distinguished. The enemy suffered se-
verely, and abandoned in his.fligl:t seven field-
pieces, four,schooners, and a sloop, with a consi-
derable gnat-nitro; ordnance;and other valuable
stores. No British Officer fell on this .occasion
Lieut.-Col. Ogikrie, of the Bth, and, Capt. raw-
cett,.of the 100th Grenadiers, were both severely,
but not dangerously, wounded. • Black Rock and
Buffalo were:burnt, in retaliation for similar acts
of wanton barbarity committed by the enemy st
Newark.
A Supplementary Report, transmitted by Lieu-
tenant-Colonel Drummond, from Colonel Murray,'
at Fort George, corrects the iris-statement of the
enemy having conveyed ,away his cannon, stores,
1.-.47. which had since been discovered in the ditch
of the fortification, with a large supply of shot.
'Some of the temporary magazines, with camp
equipage for 1500 men, had fallen into our pos-
session. Tne new barracks, had escaped being
burnt.]
