On the left was itegtm the preceninf.r evening,

About •ken the left column began .the kit
tack on the convent, while the.ri,rlit passed the ra-
vine near the river. Both attacksr were mule with
such vigour and dderatinatiOn, Hutt' all obstacles
were overcome without the hiss that might have
been expected. The enemy were driven in con 7
fusion down trite hill, Carrying a .strong reinforce*:
meld, sent from St. Sebastian, along with
them in their flipht through the burnt' village of

from which a retrea. would ,be left open, in the
• 'eveni th:o ova -sore becoming necessary ; here,
after ay.aiting the approach of the enemy tot
about lodf an hour, I received authentic informa-
. tionobat his force, consisting of from tour to five
thousimoi glen, hall re-formed his columns, and
was •inaking•an effort to turn my right' flank.—
At. this critical ,juncture not a moment was to be
lost, and sensible that every effm t bad been
made by the officers Lind men wader my command
.to. Maintain the post of Fort„ Peorge, I 'could
not consider invelf justified in continuing so
unequal a contest), the, issue of -which promised,
. no advantage to the interests of his Majesty's ser-
vice. Miring given orders for the fort to be eva-
ettatettife guns to be spiked, and- the ammuni-
tion destroy d•, :the troops tinder my command
were put in motion, and marched across the
country in a line parallel to., the Niagara River,
towards the position oear the Beaver Dam; be-'
yond Queetistown Monntfiin, et which place
had the homier of reporting to yoUr Excellency
a tiet4t, of provisions and .a in monition • had been.

we. were soonf afterwards joined by Lieut.-Colonel

weir) Fort Erie.---:The light, and one battalion
company of the Sth (Kmg's), joined us abort the,
• •;same time, as did Captain Barclay, with a detach,
ment the royal navy.
11:iving assembled toy whole force the follow.-
ing morning, which,did not exceed one thousand
six hundred men, I condoned my march towards
the bead' of tlie Lake, where-it is my intention to
take up a position, emir shall endeavour to main,
tail it, until I,.may be honoured with your Excel-
lency's instructions, which I shall feel most an-
xious to receive. I beg leave to suggest the great
importance that exists for a communication being
opened with the through the medium of the fleet ;
the anchorage under Mrs. Brandt's house is perr
feetly good and very safe. I believe your, Excel-
lency need ,not be informed, that in the event of
,it beeotni»g necessary that I should tall back up-
on YOrk, the assistance of shipping wonld be re- •
(visite for the transport of my artkllery. I cannot
conclude this long communication without ex,.
pressing a Well Merited tribute of approbation to
the gallantry and assiduity of every Officer of the
:3.taff,,, and indeed, of every individual composing
My little army.; every' one most zealously dis-
' charged the duties of his respective station. The
struggle on the •2.7 th continued froth three to four
hours, and, I lament to add, it was attended with
very severe loss.
J have the honour to enclose a list of the killed,
Wounded, au& missing, wirli-as much accuracy as
the nature of existing circumstances will admit.
Alaby of the missing, I' hope, will be found to be .
only stra4;::lers, and will-so:in rejoin their corps.
1 shall, reach the head of the take to-morrow
• evening. Hitherto the enemy has noel attempted
to interrupt My movements. Information reached
me this Morning, through an authentic channel,
that he has pushed on three thousand infantry, ,
and a considerable body of cavalry, towards
Queenstown. His Whole force is stated to amount
to nearly ten thotoond men. •
I send this dispatch by Mr. Mathison, who acted
as a volunteer on the 27th ; and 1 ant, happy to
inform your Excellency, that his conduct was
very lintiourable to his Character, and merits my
' marked approbation. Ammunition will he want-
