ADMIRAI.TY OFFICE, SEPTEMBER 1.
Vici-Admiral Sir James Saumarez, Bart. K. B. hath transmitted
to John Wilson Croker, Esq. a Letter frem Rear-Admiral
Martin, of which the following is an extract :
Riga, August 10, 1812.
In my letter to you of the sth inst. I mentioned,
that the division of gunboats under Captain Stuart,
associated with another division tinder a Russian
captain, had proceeded up the Boldero river, to ce-.
operate with a body of troops from this place and
the garrison of Dunamunde ; the object of the ex.
pe.lition being, in the first place, to take the enemy
by surprise, and, failing in that, to force them back
from Schlock, and, if possible, to penetrate to
Mittau.

The service chiefly assigned to the British was,
to keep in advance, and, if practicable, to destroy
the bridges which were convenient for the retreat
of the enemy ; and the only bridge (that of Kal-
nezeen) was speedily and effectually rendered un-
serviceable.

General Louis, who commanded the troops, gives
the highest praise to Captain Stuart, and the British
boats employed upon that service.

Vice-Admiral Sir James Saumares, Bart. K. B. has transmitted
to John Wilson Croker, Esq. a Letter from Lieutenant J. C.
Craw Turd, commanding his Majesty's gun•brig Wrangler, of
which the inclosed is a copy :

Hla Majesty's Gan-Brig Wrangler, off
Sayer Island, August, 1812.

Sta—ln pursuance of your orders of the 14th inst.
I proceeded off Randers with your boats, and the
cutter of the Locust, but not finding the French
lugger there, I proceeded further to the westward
of Mariager Fiord, to reconnoitre that port ; a
small Danish cruizer was perceived coming out,
gave chase to her, when sl.e bore up, and ran into
Alborg at night Lieutenant Petley, myself, and
Mr. Curtis (Second Master of the Locust), thought
that she might be carried by the boats, which was
agreed upon. Lieutenant Petley then proceeded in-
shore, with the barge and curter, in company with
the Locust's boats, under the charge of Mr. Curtis,
her Second Master.

About two o'clock in the morning they got along-
side of her, and carried her from under a very heavy
fire from the battery and musketry from Hall's Fort,
in the entrance of that rivet, without the loss of a

single man. She is one of those cruizers that have
been of great annoyance to our convoys off the Scam;
she mounts two brass s'x-pounders, one long two.
pounder, and small arms, and commanded by Lieu-
tenant Tetens, of the Danish navy, and Commodore
of a division of gun-boats off Flanstrand, with a
complement of 22 men, who made their escape into
the battery of Halle. They found her moored closed
under the muzzle of the guns of the battery, and
could not prevent the -Lieutenant and men from
making their escape, except one man, whom we have
a prisoner. I stood in-shore as far as I could with
safety, to cover the boats.
I have the honour to be, &c.
