LONDON,

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 26, 1810.

Last night a Gottenburgh Mailarrived, The King
of Swedets, we mean the legitimate King, has quit.
ted Peter-burgh and arrived at Riga : be bas issued
a Proclamation, in which he speaks with just in-
dignation of the conduct of the Diet of Sweden.
It is mentioned in private fetters from Stettin,
that the King of Prussia has sought the protection
of the Emperor ALIMANDER against the encroach-
ments of the French. - We fear the time is rapidly
approaching in which the Emperor of Russia will
rather want protection himself, than be able to af-
ford it to others.

This morning we received American Papers to the
23d ult. but they contain no news whatever.

We have received some German Papers to the
nth ult. but they contain no intelligence worth ex-

tratting.

The following account of the distribution of the
Frem h naval tome in India, up to the 13th of June,
was yesterday received from the Mauritius :
The Harriet cartel left Port Napoleon with 150
prisoners of u ar for India.
Twenty-two prizes, were then lying in the har-
bour. Two brio loading for France.
The Althea heaving down lobe. loaded for France.
Tice Charlton (a captured Indianian) preparing for
a guard-ship. •
The Venus and La Manche,.. of 44 guns each ; a
gr lb brig, of t 6 gnus ; and L'Entreptenante, of 16
guns (i 8 -poundei s), ready for sea on cruizes:
L'Astrio, of 54 guns, ready to slip out from Black
River.
The Engine private ship, 30 guns, and 130 men,
.to sail for France in August.
La Bellone and La Minerv.e frigates, and Vigor
sloop, sailed on the 14th March ; since which three
privateers sailed on cruizes.
Most of the streets at the West end of the town
were illuminated last night.
The warehouse at Charing-Cross, belonging to
that truly laudable Institution which has been pro-
duttive of so much good in preventing the Yellow
- Fever, was illuminated last night in honour of his,
Majesty having completed the
_Jubilee Year, in
pearly the same beautiful and appropriate manner as
on the first night of celebrating this ever-memorable
and happy event. Amongst other devices, we ob-
served a transparency representing a striking like-
ness of our beloved-Sovereign, round which were (we
think' as before) several hearts; in the centre of each
was written, in letters of gold, the word " Jay";
and the whole surrounded by the following inscrip-
tion—" The fiftieth Year of the Reign of George
the Third, the best of Kings, a real Patriot, and the
only virtuous Sovereign in Europe—All our hearts
aTe tilled with joy for thy glorious Reign, 0 King!"
CORN-ExcrossiGa, OCT. 26.—There are several

FRIDAY, OCTOIIEIt 26.

Downing-street, OL:-/..25, 1810.

A Dispatch, of which the fiillowing is an Extra&,
was last night received by the Earl of Liverpool, one
of his Majesty's Principal Secretaries of State.

E;ttrad of a Letter from Lieut. Col. Keatirig, dated Bour-

luiy 21, ISt°.

I have much pleasure in forwarding, to your Lord-
ship.a copy of my dispatch, under this date, to the
Right Honourable the Governor-General of India.;
and I hope theacotidua of the forces confided to my
command may meet with the gracious approbation
of his Majesty.

To N. B. Edmonstone, Esq. Chief Eci:retary to Govern-

SI R,

meat, Cdicutta.

I have the honour to report that the force; con-
sisting-of one thousand eight hundred European,
and one thousand eight hundred and fifty native
troops, which the Right Hon. the Governor-Gene-
ral of India, in Council, has been pleased to confide
to my orders and direetions, 'for the conquest of the

Island of Bourbon, arrived at Itoderigues on the
.20th June, at which time I was absent on the inn-
!• pottant duty which has already been detailed, for

the information of his Lordship, in my letter of the

16th of the same month.

The intelligence which I then obtained enabled -
me at once to decide upon a plan of attack.
On the 24th June Commodore Rowley, cotn-
manding the blockading squadron before the Isles
of:France. and Bonaparte, anchored in l,is INbjes:y's
ship Boadicea off Fort Duncan, in the Isle of
Ruliel igues.

No time N-vas lost in making alt.. necessary ar-
rangements for the reduction of this island, as well

.
as or carrying ILILO effect the ulterior object of the

expedition.

. From the unfavourAble state of the weather we
were delayed at Itoderigues unill the morning of the

3d instant, when we weighed anchor, and proL
cec'ded tu the point of rendezvous, fifty trifles to

windwdrd of the Island of Bonap..rte, which point

we reached at four. o'clock on the evening of the
6th, when, in consequence of the judicious arrange-
ments made by Commodore Rowiey, and the inde7
tatiga.,le zeal and emertions of Captains Pytn of the
Sirius., Lambert of the Iphigenia; Curtis of the Ma-
gicienne, Willoughby of the Nereide, and Lieute-
nant ilobb, First of the Boadicea, the whole of the

troops were removed from the transports and em-
barked in the frigates, which immediately stood in
fir the points of debarkation.
It will appear by the disposition made in the plan
of attack, for striking the first blow at the enemy's
capital, that there were two objeas in view;
.first,
to prevent a protracted warfare in the interior of
a country almost inaccessible to an: invading army.;
and secondly, ensure the final redpction of the
I•land in the shortest time possible, by securing the
princip#Garrison and the Governor and,Commander
in Chief, whom I knew to be at St. Denis.
The .first brigade composed of his Majeity's 86th
: regiment, the first battalion 6th regitnent of Ma-
dras. Native Infantry, and a small detail of artillery
and pioneers, commanded by Lieutenant-Colonel
Fraser, was ordered to Lind at Grand Chaloupe, and
to proceed by the mountains direct against the West
side of the enemy's capital ; whilst the second,
third, and fourth brigades were to laud at Riviere
• des Pluies, and to force the-lines of defence extend-
ing from the Butor redohbt on the North or sea
ode; to the redoubt No. 11, on the south, and
from thence to cross the fear of the town to the
river St. Denis.

AbOut two o'clock P. M. on the 7th, the several
ships having re:ldled their stations, the beach from
St. Marie, to within gun-shot of the Imperial bat-
tery, was reconnoitred by Captain Willoughby of
the Royal Navy, and Lieutenant Colonel Campbell
of his Majesty's 33d regiment, commanding the 4th
brigade, or the advance.

The weather being then Moderate, and 'the ene-
my not appearing in strength, it was determined
to debark the troops. Accordingly, Lieutenant-
Colonel Campbell, with one hund,:ed and fifty light
troops of his brigade, and Capt. Willoughby of the
Royal Navy, commanding a party of seamen, and
appointed to superintend tlie landing, immediately
pushed off, and landed their men about four o'clock.
Lieut. Col. Macleod, of his Majesty's 69th regi-
ment, commanding 3d brigade, with 14-A) men,
effeded a landing nearly at the same time. But at
this moment the wind increasing with much vio-
lence, raised the surf to an uuexpeEted height, and
several boats being stove on the beach, the landing
of more troops that evening became impratticable.
This important object was not, however, given up,
until an experiment, concerted with Commodore
Rowley, was put in execution. A small transport

(the VA.lney) was run upon the, beach, in hopes that
the trbOM might be enabled to land over her stern
or under her, lee. This service was performed by
Lientenantj.loyd, 2d thc Boadicea, with the
usual intrepidity which distioguis our navy ; but
the violence of the weather, and natural' difficulties
of the situation,
,were such as to fiustrate the in-

teutio❑ proposed.
It now beCatne necessary, if possible, to commu-
nicate,with Lieutenat-Colonel Macleod, the senior
Officer with the detachment .on shore, which in
landing had the whole of their ammunition da-
maged, and had lost a considerable,number of their
arms. Lieutenant Fculstone, of his Majesty's 69th
regiment, in the most handsome manner volunteer-
ing to swim through the surf ; his services were im-
mediately accepted, and that Officer accordingly
conveyed my orders to the Lieutenant-Colonel to
take possession of, and occupy St. Marie for the
night.
This service" was performed by Lieutenant co-
.
ionel Macleod in a masterly and Officer-like man-

I felt much anxiety for this detachment during
the night; and as the.prahlicability of disembarking
more troops to windward appeared to Coturno-
dure:Rowley, as well as myself, very uncertain, the
Aigicienne, having on board the 2d Brigade, was
dispatched about ten o'clock, P. M. to Grand Cha-
loupe, to which place it was determined that the
Boadicea, with such trasports as-had military stores
on board, should follow in the morning.
According to this arrangement Captain Lambert
of the fp,ligenia, being left with directions from
ComModore Rowley to seize the first. moment of
moderate weather to debark that part of the 3d
Brigade then on board of his ship, I proceeded
with the Commodore in the Boadicea, in the morn-
ing of the Bth, with t'oe remainder of the 3d and
4th Brigades, and effeaed a landing to leeward, at
Grand Chaloupe, about eleven o'clock A. M.
With this force under my immediate command,
I instantly moved forward by the mountains ; at two
o'clock, A. M. passing over the heights, I recon-
noitred- the
.enetrifi position, anc.1.4;7- four•
had fumed the necessary arranz_:ements for the at-
tack upon his capital.
Major Ausi4n, at the head of the .12th and 33d
grenadiers, and 12th native infantry, had received
his final iustruaions to a,.,.:-,all..the town in the rear.
Lieutenant-Colonels Macleod of the 69th, arid
Campbell of the 33d, had already passed the ene-
my's strong position on the east of • the town, from
the Butor to No. 5. redoubt.
Lieutenant-Colonel Charges was well advanced'
towards the west of the town with five companies
of his Majesty's 6gth regiment, to force the bat-
teries on the sea lice; and Lieutenant-Colonel
Drummond, commanding the 2d brigade, had rein-
forced with the Royal Marines-„of his brigade, the
position so-gallantly maintained, by the. Ist brigade,
on the West of the River St. Denis.
Through the exertions of Major. Taynton, con%
manding the Artillery, and of Captain IVlaclntosh
of the Bombay Artillery, assisted by- Lieutenant-
Colonel Charges of the 6gth regiment, and Lieu-
tenant Lauhem of his Majesty's ship La I\tereide,
commanding a party of fifty seamen, -I was enabled
to get ;forward two field pieces, and one four and
halt-inch howitzer, which were descending- the
mountain, and would have been in action in less
than half an hour. This would have insured the
result of the premeditated attack; or, in the event
of any disaster, secured our retreat, vvhich latter
was, in my opinion, next to an impossibility.
Affairs were thus situated, when I received a mes-
sage from the left that the enemy had sent Out a
trumpeter, with an Officer, to demand a suspension
of arms, and on honourable terms to surrender the
island. There was not a moment to be lost in sav-
ing an enemy completely in our power, and I ac-
cordingly issued immediate orders for the troops to
halt.

I am sorry that my situation prevented my com-
municating, agreeably to his Loidship's orders, with
Mr. Farquhar, who was on board of his Majesty's
ship Boadicea, upon the: terms which ComMOdore
Rowley and myself deemed proper to grant to a
brave though vanquished enemy.

I should have mentioned before, 'that on my land-
ing at •Grand Chaloupe, I had detached Capt.Hauua,
with two companies of his Majesty's Ist battalion,
56th regiment, to L 3 Possessitne, the batteries of
which place he took by assault in the most gallant

manner.

Thus, Sir, in a few hours, has this rich, exten-
sive, and valuable colony been added to his gra-
cious Majesty's dominions, with a population of
upwards of one hundred thousand souls, and with a
loss on our part comparatively trifling when the na-
ture of the service is considered, a return of which
accompanies this dispatch, with a copy of thy Capi-
tulation,,

The whole of the service has lorten colduatd
completely to my satistatiion, that, where praige is
thelltn claim of ell, it may be considered invidiot"
to select, ; however, the truly military stye, and
rapidity of the movemenl: of rhe first Brigade, calls
tor niy mo3t unqualified thanks to Licutonant-Co-
lonel Fraser, the officers end men under his coat'
tumid ; the same is equally due to Lieutenant-Colo'
nels Macleod and Campbell, and the troops uncle
their orders, who landed under the greatest difficul-
ties, opposed by the weather and an almost ivaCces-
- beach.

My thanks are further due to Lieutenant-Colonel
i\liod for the gallant manner in which be too 4
pu6.,,,.ssion of the batteric...) of St. Marie.
"I'o Lieutenant-Colonel Drummond, cornmandia4
the brigade, the service is much indebted for the
rapia and etTeOualsuppori which he gave to the Ist,
brigade, nor can 1. withhold my approbation of this
condild of Lieutenant Cottel, of tee Royal Marine-is
twho; with the detachment under bis coulwai,d,seteo

with the usual intrepidity of that corps.
am well aware that I cannot add
_to the well-
earned fame of Commodore Rowley,
commanding
his Majesty's squadron, whose merit as an Otticer 1$
well known, and duly appreciated ; but I shall o'er
teel vatelial for the cordiality with which he has co-
operated- with nic: throughout the. service ; ai,d, as'
tar as. the sows of the Expedition depended upo"
the Naval arrangement, the praise is unquestion4)lY
due to him.

' To Captains Ppn, Lambert, Curtis, and Wil7
loughby, of the Royal Navy, conlin,mding the t"'
gates mentioned in the first part of this dispatcli, th4l
army is infinitely indebted for its effectual and ,speedy
debarkation : to Captain Wilkughby, who..ol°r°
immediately superintended the landing to windwal'ci'
and who served with am.; ty of ieatuen oft shole,
my thanks are particularly due; as also to Lieute-
nants Robb and Lloyd, (I take this opportunity of
stating, that the latter Officer was severely woundea
on .the 21st September last, when gallantly leatiii)g

on a party of seamen ; but in the !luny of my
