Sta,—lt is gratifying to bear the East India Company
contemplate following up their munificent rewards to those
distinguished Generals who have achieved so much for the
Honourable Company and their country.
A very intelligent Officer, who sharecl in the danger of
the siege and the taking of Ilhurtpore, has, in a letter to a
friend in this country, detailed all the interesting particulars
relative to the taking of that important and till then
deemed impregnable fortreits. He make. very houourable
mention of the Commander-in-Chief on that occasion,
whose humanity was as conspicuous as his bravery. He
represents the almost insurmountable difficulties which the
besieging army had to encounter, difficulties which had
baffled the skill of Lord Lake twenty years before, when
Lord Combermere, to whose personal exertions no words
can do justice, arrived in the trench, and had his Lord-
ship's measures been less prompt than they were, similar
results must have followed. His Lordship saw at a glance
from what quarter danger was to be apprehended, and he
lost not a moment in taking the only step which held out a
sure prospect of averting it; such important services, ac-
quired at so great a personal risk, cannot be too highly ap-
preciated by a grateful country. The insertion of the pre-
ceding in your paper, will oblige,
