which several boats lay ; they endeavoured to escape,. but
ing themselves cut off by the gun. boats, they ran their boas
on shore and fled into the jungle, but not before numbers were
destroyed by the volleys of grape poured into them from the gun.
boats ; the rest of the boats having escaped, I stood • for the
new stockade, fired a broadside into it whilst passing, then ran
down and anchored off the south-eastern point of Slnthpoore
island for the night. I should imagine about 12 or )4 boats
were destroyed, as 1 observed them floating out of Muncloo
creek after the attack, completely shattered by the great guns.
I also beg leave to report the great zeal and activity evinced by
the officers on board the vessel, as also the high-spirited con-
duct of Messrs. Laughton and Boyce, each connnanding a gun-
boat. Finding the means of obtaining water and provisions
thus cut off, and deeming my stay in the Naaf to be of no fur-
ther utility, weighed anchor the next morning at day-light
for this place, where I now have the honour to report myself,
and am, Sir, yours, &c.

now the honour to acquaint you, for the information of
Excellency the Commander-in-Chief, that, by intelligence rc-
