Inhabitants of that country to relinquith their power
of attacking Rata fcldiers' whenever they might
be enabled to do fo ; and I am oonfirmed in this
from the unanimous opinion that all the Spaniards,
with whom I had ever fpohen, had given both of
Geoetal Beresford's and Sir Bamuel Auchmuty's
r ive commands at Buenos Ayres and Monte
vizi, and it being an afcertained fait that the peo•
le of Buenos Ayres had prepared mines under the
1 itcks of the 7111 regiment to defiroy them, and
riarr
that no attachment or good will on the part of the
people, on the other fide of the river, had keen

The witnefi afterwards Rated, that from Genera;
Whitelocke's Ration during the attack of the oth, it
was impoilible he could fee when his eJlumas gra re-
ceived the enemy's 6re. From the nosiber of the
enemy in arms in all directions, ft was ialPoinble
' that any (mall party of men could communicate witk
the Orkin* troops in the town, 41though certaialy a
proper party might have done fo. No attempt of
this kind however was made, and General White-
lock. never (poke to General Gower on the Cohjeilt,
until a sort time before he fent Captain Whittinghasp
to the Plaza del Toros. Upon this and other °cosines'
General Gower offered to go himfelf, but General
Whitelocke always declined it. General Gower
then repeated what he Rated in his former evidence,
namely, that General Whitelocke never eonfulted
him upon any point at all, during the period to which
his prefect evidence refers.

NINETEENTH DAY.
General Gowsa again called in.
Q Did the circumilances which eauTed fo little
communication between you and GeneralWhitelocke
during the sth of July, arife from any thing that
General Whitelocke had ever Paid or done ?
[To this queilion General Whitel, cke übjetled,
upon the ground that it did pot relate to any mili-
tary operations, but to matters of a private nature
between him and General bower.)
The Court was then cleared for a quarter of an
hoar, and upon our re admilGon the quefiinn wits
repeated. A. It arofe from what General White
locke had laid.

State what this was ? A. Haying confillted
me on a fpecific poise. on which my opinion differed
from his, when he demanded ir, ho Sated that I
was throwing cold wa!er on every thing hp did, bur
thlt lic would put me to the telt by a quetlion which
was, whether all his ads, as an officer in that cows
try, were not good ? I replied, that the inferi"rity
of my fituation prevented me from prefuming to
give an opinion of a Lieutenant General, holding
a commilfion as commander of the forces—lie then
Paid, he c nfi tereci me as his declared enemy,
and that he would fuperfede me from the fituation I
held, as a Ralf officer in that army. After a repri-
mand fo fevere, I did not feel myfelf at liberty to
propofe any thing, or to ad otherwife than in dire&
obedience to fuch commands as I might receive...—
This converfation t ,ok place on the 4th, at the pe
riod General Whitelocke (poke to me relative to
fummoning the town. I really cannot (peak to the
hour. There was another part of this converfation
completely of a private nature, which I do not feel
myfelf at liberty to (late—it was the opinion given
of me to General Whitelocke, by a Minitter of State
in this country.

Q2eliions by General Wm imocala.
Qz_ Do you not recollert your Brigade Major.
Lieut. Croisley, being fent to endeavour to 10 the
right flank, but was unable to make his way pre-
vious to captainWhittingliam being lent to the left ?
A. I do not recullea.

Wei e not the Carabineers and 9.h Llight Pra-
goons ordered to proceed in the morning to join the
centre of the attack, and where were they when they
received that order? 4. Ido not know that fuch an
order was given.
O As there teems to he Tome confofirm in the
flatements refpeding the movements and nations of
the referee rn the .sth, you are defired to Hate
what you know on this fobjed. A. 'Die Carabineers
to the bell of my recolleetion were ordered to take
up the ground occupied by the picquets of the light
brigade when the latter moved tif. Fot;r difmnunted
troops of the 9th Light Dragoons were ordered to
align themfelves on the right cf the Carabineers.,—
The other four troops of the 9th were placed in re-
ferve on the high ground near the Coral. The com-
pany of the lath regiment remained to cover the
holpital and head quarters. The detachment of the
rith Dragoons attached to the Commiffariat, re-
mained there, alfu, as it was the depot of provi
(ions. The (mall detachments of corps left to guard
the packs, remained on the fpots where their cow-
mantling officers had depofited them, near their ref-
pedive regimental pofitions. The artillery remained
near the Coral. Ido nut know where the mounted
Dragoons were ; they were, however, very few in
number—l do not know of any change except that
ranted by the order to charge I before defcribed; and
the retreat which the Carabineers were obliged to
make in confequence of the fuperiority of the ene-
my's fire, but which eventually left them a little in
advance of the pofition from which they had origi-
nally moved, in obedience to the order to charge.
QWas not a large proportion of the 9th Light
Dragoons engaged along with the carabineers, in the
rconflid to which you have alluded 4. Yes; fuck
part as was advanced.
Had nut all firing ceafid in the town before
evening came on ; and were not Come of the rifle

A. It was, and White!. houfe was about four of five
hundred yards in the rear of the pair AI of the light
brigade. The lquares I have alluded to in the rub-
urbs were cultivated as gardens and orchards.
Et._ It having been flated to you and General
Wintelocke, that the enemy n”ant to defend the
town by barricadoed hooks, and by occupying the
windows and roofs, dq you know what induced Ge-
neral Whitelocke to order the troops to march to tl,c
attack with unloaded arms ? A. I do uot.
LL Do you know what number of tools were al.
lotted to the troops for breaking open thc houtes or
harricadocs in the Ilreets ? A. I do not ; j think
they were dittrihnted by the Deputy Q2arter Matter
General, Colonel 4urke.
(Cult ate time Captain Whittinghant brought the
metrage from Sir Samuel Auchmuty, was it under

Q. Were any wounded brought to head quarter!

tZ Was there any, and what period, during the
sth, when the Ration if General Whitelocke might
have been changed with advantage; you having laid
that White's hr,ufe was a good flattop in the turn in-
fiance ? A. 1 think it might, after the middle of the
day for by going to the Pla;a (lei Toros, although
the dittance was increafed from the right coltrinn,,
and from Colonel Mahoi, it afforded an additional
opportunity of communicating by water.
Having given your opinion that a bombard•
meat would have bein of no confiderable effect, (late
your reafons ? A. They were fuggetted in a great
degree by the expetiment made upon the houfts at
Monte Video with a .4 pounder.
Q. Was you acquainted, on the morning of the
6th, that the Admiral had embarked the heavy
ordnance, and had polled the gun boats fo to
cover the landing of it ? A. On my arrival at the
Plaza 41 Turns, I fast' the gun boats dole in (hare,
I did not know f any other ordnance ready to land,
except a (*lngle =4-pounder I law on the beach. It
was landed under cover of the high ground of the
Plaza, and did not want pay cover to its landing.
Ck_ At what period of the lith of July, was it corn
manteated to you and General Whitelocke, that Ge
neral Crawford and Colonel Duff' had furrenderedro
the enemy ? A. I think it was afferted in General
Liniera's letter did not feel that the fact was al-
certained till I heard it from Sir Samuel Auchmrity,
and that he bad derived his information from Cap
lain Carroll, of the 88th regiment, who had come
with a flag of truce to that poll.
Q._ Why was it not attempted to fet fire to the
honfis, when ;hey were found to be occupied by
armed men on the morning of the attack, or war
this ever fuggefled ? A. I believe it is impodible to
let fire to houfes, confirrieted as they. were,
rZ Was General Whitelocke in/ armed of the iitu•
ation of Colonel Mahon's corps at the time ht agreed
to open negoeiations v ith the Spanifh Commander ?
A. I am not Pure. I think he was.

What was the dillance of the Plaza del Toros
frostithe place where the 24:pounder was landed ;
and had not you a coinmunscation from the Plaza
del Toros to the those ? A. The dillance was ab.'tit
three hundred yards ; the communication there was
per fatly epee,
Q.__ Where was the main body of the enemy ; and
at wat dillance from the Plaza del Toros on the
evening of the 6th of July ? A. I had not an op.
portunity of obferving, being at that time on the lost
with a flag of truce.
Q._ /Jo you know if there was any Spanifh army
in the country which might have come to the allif-
lanes of Buenos Ayres in a few days ? A. I under.
flood that the whole population of the vicinity wa►
affembling to afßli the town.
(t_ Might not the roads leading to Buenos Ayres
have —been fs occupied by Britins troops as to prevent
any fupply of proeifions being brought to the
enemy I A. it was impolale, with the number of
Bridal troops we had, to prevent the introduilion of
any fupplies they might with. There was a very
great number of main roads leadiog from the coun-
try into the town.
Q, Was not the p&ition of the army on the 6th
filch as to have enabled General Whitelocke. with
the co-operation of the Admiral, to have refined
every attempt pf the Spaniih forces ? A. I do not
know what ordnance Admiral Murray had &Ord
to be landed ; I do not think ;he enemy could have

evacuated by the enemy. A communication with
the 38th was new priaicable, and I found that gal.

joined them, he was in poll-aloft of moll of the ene.

cept the Toros itfelf, which Rill kept up a very neavy
fire ; but Major Nugent had brought up a twelve
pounder, fhcltered by the end of a houfc, to bear dote
upon it, and detachments from the 87th inveilcd it on
the other fide. Finding that the place mutt imme.
diately ('amender, and defirous that Major Nugent
thould have the honour of finifhing what he had fo
i jndicioufly begun, and anxious to er.amine the pot)
occupied by the fifth regiment, I left the Toros, and
about nine o'clock it furrendered ; on which I re-
ruined, and put the 87th into it. After making a
few !rally arrangements, 1 battened through the
Ilreetb to 'the convent of San Catalina, and joined the
tight wing of the sth regiment ; the left wing of that -
corps was advanced towards the 36th regiment.—
Soon after my arrival, an officer came to me from
General Lumley, informing me that the enemy were
