EVENING, JANUARY 3O, 1858,

cellency is well aware with what preci4ion these reels fire
their guns—and yet not one single man was wounded.
I gave directions at once to remove everything from the
spot, and the Highlanders, 53d Regiment, and Sikhs, with
a most praiseworthy zeal and activity, brought off all the
guns, waggons, &c., from the quicksands, beyond which
the.. had been placed. The troops had been marching
since one o'clock on the Bth, with occasional halts ; and
the moving in of the guns to a position I had taken up for
then, within about three-quarters of a mile of the camp,
was not accompanied till dusk the following day. They
had little to eat or drink for nearly 24 hours ; but there
was not a complaint.
I beg to request you will lay the names of the undermen-
tioned officers before his Excellency the Commander-in-
Chief :—Captain Middleton, who commanded the whole of
the artillery, rendered the greatest services, both in the
action and in the moving of the guns;; Lieut. Milman,
who commanded the battery; Captain Remmington, who
worked his guns admirably, and who was most zealous in
giving every assistance to Captain Middleton ; Brigadier
A. Little, to whom I was much indebted for his cavalry
support to the guns, and for the way in which he brought
his force to the front on the advance of the enemy.
Major Ouvry, commanding the 9th Lancers, a most
active and zealous officer.
Lieutenant Younghusband, ce,rnnanding sth Punjaub
Cavalry, and Lieutenant Gough, commanding Hodson's
Horse; to all of whom my thanks are due for the very
able way in which they commanded their regiments.
Lieutenant Malcolm, commanding the Royal Engineers,
and Lieutenant Forbes, commanding the Bengal Engi-
neers, who, with their men, executed the work entrusted
to then with great ability and zeal.
Brigadier the Hon. A. Hope, commanding the infantry,
brigade, was of the greatest possible assistance, and be-
haved with his usual well-known gallantry.
Lieut.-Col. Thorold, commanding 42d Highlanders ;
Col. Faber, commanding 53d Regt.; Lieut.-Col. Heath
Hay, commanding 93d Highlanders ; and Capt. Ryves,
commanding 4th Punjaub Infantry.
My thanks are also due to those officers far the able man-
ner
in which they commanded their regiments :--Captain
M'Leod, 42d Highlanders, commanding the rear-guard ;
Lieutenant Smith, commanding two 9-pounder guns,
who performed the duties entrusted to them to nay satis-
faction. Captain Anderson, ex-commissariat officer, whose
duties were very severe, and Captain Carey, deputy-assis-
tant quartermaster-general, were most attentive and
zealous. Captain *are], brigade-major of cavalry, Captain
Cox, brigade-major of infantry, deserve my warmest ap-
probation. Captain the Hon. G. A. Anson, my aide-de-
camp, afforded use on this, as on every other occasion, the
greatest assistance ; Lieut. Havelock, extra aide-de-camp,
was very useful. Brigadier the Hon. A. Hope talks in the
highest strains of Lieut. A. Butler, 93d Highlanders, his
acting aide-decamp. Captain Bruce, head of the Intelli-
gence Department, rendered me very great assistance in
procuring information regarding the movements of the
enemy. —I Imo, So.,

General H. C. Vol Cortland, C. 8., Commanding Hurri-
anah Field Force, to Lieut.-Colonel J. D. Macpherson,
Military Secretary to Chief CommisHsioner.
Camp, auges, Nov. 23.
Sir,—l have the honour to forward, for the information
of the Chief Commissioner, copy of a report, by Captain
Stafford, commanding a detachment of my force, regarding
the action of the 16th inst., at Narnoul, under Lieut.-
Colonel Gerrard with the Jondhpoor mutineers and other
rebels.
The whole of the troops, and especially the cavalry,
scem to have behaved remarkably well. The enemy were
completely defeated, and the whole of their guns taken.
Captain Bloomfield was left unwell at Kanond, and the
command of the 231 Punjaub Infantry devolved on Lieu-
tenant Hunt in this engagement. —I have, &c.,
H. C. VAN CORTLAND,
Commanding Hurrianah Field Force.
Camp, Narnoul, Nov. 18, 1857.

Sir,—For the ieformation of Ciptain J. P. Caulfield,
commanding moveable column* I have the honour to re•
port the part which the force under my immediate com-
mand took in the engagement of the 16th instant, at
Narnoul, with the Joudhpoor Legion and other rebels.
When we had passed the village of Nusseerpoor, about a
quarter of a mile from the enemy's position, the force, in
obedience to Lieut.-Colonel J. G. Gerrard's orders, ad-
vanced at deploying distance, 23d Punjaub Infantry on
the right, guns in the centre, and Putteeala Infantry on
the left, the cavalry being on the extreme left.
The force was soon directed to deploy, ani the advance
was ordered. After two of the enemy's guns were taken,
the advance still continued in the same order until we
came to the dry bed of a river. Lieut. G. G. Pearse com-
manding cavalry of the Hurrianah force, was, I much re-
gret to say, hero wounded in two places, and the comrr..ud
devolved upon Lieut, R. A. Hamilton. The guns being
unable to cross the Nullah, they diverged to the right and
took up 'a position near the Horse Artillery guns, whilst
the 23d Punjaubllnfautry and Putteroala Infantry, in com-
pany with the let Fusiliers, crossed and advanced towards
the enemy's camp, which was soon taken, two guns falling
into our possession. By order of Captain Caulfield, the
infantry under my command returned to where our guns
wore in position. Some time after this, and when the
rebels had returned to their camp, and commenced firing
round shot at us with one of the guns which had been pre-
viounly taken, I was directed to re-occupy the camp. with
two companies of the let Fusiliers and two companies of
lie Punjaub Infantry ; some cavalry, with which Lieut.
Hamilton was, having been despatched to the left, to
follow up the mutineers when routed. The camp was
attacked in flank, and the gnu which had been unmoving
us wan gallantly eharged un taken by the let Punnet s,
led by Lieut. Warner. The guns were ordered to bo re-
moved, and the infantry was directed to remain in the
enemy's camp. I was (sic) returned to where the remain-
der of my force was, an i shortly afterwards the serai was
taken possession.
My very best thanks are due to all, but more especially
to Lieuts. Pearse and Hamilton, commanding the cavalry:
Lieut. Hunt, commanding 231 Panjaub Infantry ; and'
Li mt. Halcott, commanding Artillery, and whose gunned,
lately embodied, behaved remarkably well. My th
are also due to Sub-Assistant-Surgon, P. A. Minas, me-
dical charge, for his attention to the wounded.
Lieut. Hunt makes favourable mention of Lieut. Chat-
torten, officiating ad j utaut23d Punjaublnfantry; and Lieut.
Hamilton brings to notice the gallant conduct of Ressaldars
Uhdoolla Khan, Dakhel Horse; Allum Khan, To-

wannah Horse ; and Shere Mahomod Khan, mounted
police. Itessaldar Miura Khan's conduot deserves special
commendation ; for when the enemy returned to their
camp, ho took up a position n•ar a temple, and retained it
until a reinforcement was brought up, when I saw him
there myself. It was here that the Towannaha lost many
horses. Lieutenant Halcott reports as follows on the con-
duct of Sergeant-Major J. H. Jackson, and I have pleasure
in bearing testimony to it :—" I much wish to call your
attention to the assistance rendered me by Sergoant-Major
J. H. Jackson throughout the day, assistance peculiarly
valuable in consequence of my being an infantry officer."
I beg to enclose a return of killed and wounded.
