" R. W11..1.I8."

We feel the most lively satisfaCtion in communi-
cating to our Readers another brilliant conquest
achieved by our Arms, The Island of Banda has
been reduced, without the loss of a single, man on
our part, although the force of the enemy was im-
mensely superior, and placed in a fortress which is
uncommonly strong both by nature and art. Our
Readers, will, we are sure, feel equal delight and
astonishment when they read the following plain
and modest narrative of this most gallant exploit.
Banda is one of that cluster of Spice-Islands,
called the Moluccas, from which the Dutch, in,the
days of their commercial prosperity, drew such im-
menseealth. It 'is abotit 20 miles broad and 10
long, and produces both nutmegs and cloves, but
the furinvr in gt eater abundance.
It was taken in 1796 by a squadron under the
command of Admiral RAINIER, and restored at the
peace,

ofilcial details of this event have not yet been
received by Gwernment, but we pledge oqrselves
to the authenticity of the following statement :

" His Majesty's ship Itstracoutta, Indian Ocsan,
(libber 8,18 to.

" Having Met 'a merchant ship on her way to
England, I aViit my pelf of the opportunity of stnd.
ing you the eat Nest account of the capture of Bauch,
And as the public dispatched cinnot reach England
for some ti,oe niter this, T take the liberty of giving
you a detailed account of the attack.

" Ca,o/ine, Piedrnuntais4•, Barracouita,
arrived air Banda (its the Bth Angtto, rind hnve too
• at a r:onsidrr►►hle distance (min the kid, to avoid
being s.eeo (a hope which was fro:or:fled by come.
fi.hint; bnat4). At ten at night beitig about (our
ni:ics troni the lui;bour, the boats were ',pitted out,
3 -
u►ul asternbittii aluogside the Caroline, conta►ning
390 men.

At twcite the boats shoved off, under the
command ref Ciptain Cora, the weather being then
tolerably tine, it soon however became' dark, and
squally, intended With.a boisterous sea, whichltba-
sioned tie separation of the boats ; and on arriving
at the appointed rendezvoux, Capt. Cots found the
original force diminished to tBO men: After re-
'nettling until three o'clock, in hopes pfbeing joined
by the itiising boats, it became necessary to push
on for Used Netra, still three miles off, or return
to our shies, mortified and disappointed.
" Capt. 011.11 fortunately determined
.to gteOn,
end c n approaching the shore, we found, by several
alarm got a wing fired, , that the enemy were ex-
petting us. The badoess of the weather, which had
before acted agdanit us, now became our proteeilon,
for the boats, grounded undiscovered in a beaky
squall of wind and rain within tOO yards of a Lie.
tery of ten 24; pounders, which was stormed in the
rear ; the sentinel was killed by a pike, and Gu men
were disarmed without filing a pistol.
" leav'mg a guard it, the battery, the storm-
ing party, headed by Captain KUNCII, and the re-
serve by Captain Ceeit, proCeeded to' Fort Belgica,
by a narrow path on the skirts of the town. Ti,e
bugle %,1111 then sounding the alarm of our landing—
The enemy in Brlgiea reserved their tire until we
got close to the walls, The scaling ladders were
then placed between the guns, and mounted wish a
rapidity exceeding all belief, notwithstanding a very
1111 Art tire centre .the citadel and the surrounding
bushes, bol) very ill•dire4ted.

Atter pining posseHion of the lower works, the
ladders were hauled up and placed against the intact
wall ; tbe interval occasioned by this seemed to give
the enemy fror.h courage ; but when they s,lw the
ladders firmly fixed, they seemed panic-struck, and
fied in all direCtions, leaving the Colonel-Command.
Mit and iu men killed, and two Captains and thirty
men prisoners.

The guns near which the ladders were placed
fortunately burnt priming, owing to the heal, y rains,
stud thus we fOttnd ourselves in possession a this
strong citadel, without the l9ss of a single man, just
in time for the, sun to rile on the British flag, and
to phew us our commanding siLation ; having Fort
Nofsu and the town imivediataly under our guns.
A ibg of truce was dispatched le the Governor,

offering protedion to private property on the sur-
render of the island, which was refused ; however,
a shot from Belgica, and a threat of storming the
town and forts, produced an immediate and uncon-
ditional surrender, and 7fio disciplined troops and
300 militia grounded their anus to us.
‘‘ Capt. COLE'S feelings at this moment must
have been, in unison with his foiloweri, proudly
grateful. The enemy had notice of the squadron's
approach. at six o'clock in the afternoon, and dis-
patcheda great liart of their force to the place whet e
Admiral RAINIER landed, an event which Captain
Cott had foreseen.

" The enemy taking advantage of the flag of
truce whiCh we had flying in,l3,lgica, opened a fire
on the shipping just entering the harbour, but a few
shot from that commanding fort
,drove them fiom
their guns. Fortunately the nature of the attack
recjuired no firing from the assailants, as the' boats
grounded at some distance fiotn the shore,' and the
men had to wade up to the middle in water. The
enemy were drawn up at their guns, with lighted
Matches.

EPD4UNDLYONS, ,
" Lieutenant ut the U4rractitta."

The City Address was yesterday presented to his
Royal Highness the Prince REGRNT, with the usual
fearer ; it will be found, together with his Royal
Highness's answer, in a subservient column. We
believe that the Answer of his. Royal Highness has
very much disappointed the promoters of the Ad-
dress, and indeed the Party at large. Those who
flattered themselves that the Plittlcti of WALES, in
•
the discharge of the duties of his high office would
be governed by Party feebugs—those who hid the
esumption to assert that him Royal Highness would
endeavOnr to embarrass the public business, by
trying with how little of the itoy'al Confidence the
Ministers could perform their tssk," naturally hoped
that in the ii4iWtr ICI the Address, they wdorld find
their exper:,iations realised. The Address was evi-
dently drawn up, in the hope that it would produce
an MIS% er that would gratify the wounded feelings-
of the Party ; but that hope was not realised. His
Royal Highness has disappointed the views of a set
of men who seemed in have considered him merely
as an instrument by which they might obtain, power,
but he has answered the hops and expect ations of
the Empire.

We mentioned yesterday the interview which
had taken place on Tuesday last between his MA,
JESTY and; the Prince of WALES. We then stated
that these illustrious cliaraiiiers had parted in mutual
happiness, but we since learn from indis;,utable
ilioritia that there never was perhaps a more a(-
leding and gratifying meeting between Father and
Son in any rank of life. Nothing; we are assured,
could surpasir the reciprocal proofs of regard,; and
tlria regard was shewti in the tenderest as well as
most ardent manner on both sides. His Ms.JESTY
embraced the PRINCE with all the energy of pa..
' rental regard, and the PRINCE returned it with eve-
ry emotion of filial affedion and respctl. We have
the pleasure to add, that not only are the public re-
ports of his Ivliserery's improving health abundant,
ly confirmed by all the private accounts which we
received from quarters that jwitify the fullest confi-
dence, but' that the improvement of his Nlikaksyy's
sight also.itt an unquestionable fad. The.first proof
(.f this extraordinary circumstance, we understand,
rook place a few weeks ago, when 165 MAJESTY
observed to one of the Physieiatis in attendance, who
was' potiring out a medicine, that be thought ho
' could discern the colour of it. The Physician re-
quested that his MAJESTY would describe the ap-
pearance, and his MAJESTY did so with the utmost.
accuracy. When the Physician confirmed the unit)
of the impression, his MAJESTY, with his chant:,
truistic piety, immediately returned thanks to the
Supreme Being, for having restored in any degree so
great a bIVSSIIIg.

The Portuguese papers recommend the general
adoption of bread formed of a mixture: of flour and
otatoes. They observe, that the excellence of it
has boon proved by experience, and if generally
used, there would be no want of bread, as they have
happily abundance of potatoes and that by thus
.torning to advantage the produce of their own coon.
try,, large sums would be spared which are sent
abroad for wheat. They add, that according to all
accounts from Spain, not a third part of the land
will be sown this year, from the want of cattle, of
hands, and olcoatidence ; far who would like to
sow that the I.:teuch might reAp ?
