Mediterranean, addressed to the Hrtnourable W. W. l'ele,
dated on board the Vile de Park, off Minorca, Oct. 12, I Stit).
Sir—l have gnat pleasure Li trairmitting to you a letter from
Captain Hoste, Of his Majesty's s!.ip the Amphion, giVirg an .t,-.-
count r,f a very galiani and well-cooducted attack made on the
enemy's fort and vessels at Cortelazzo, bkween Venice acrd
Trieste, by the seamen and marines landed from that ship,which
so completely succeeded, that the fort was takem and blown up,
and all the vessels which were in the purr captured or cf,stroyed,
without the lass of a man, one only being wounded by accident,
when employed in destroying the works.
I have on many occasions had to represent the zeal, he bra-
very, and the nice concert of measures that are necess-try to suc-
cess, which have distinguished the services of Capt.iin !!9sta ;
and this late attack of the enemy is not inferior to those many in-
stances which have before ohs ained for him praise and admirat:on.
The manner in which he speak* of Lieutenant Phillott, who
commanded the party, and df the other officers and men,. is highly
honourable to them; but the Amphion's officers and met/loamy-
ing the example of their Captain, could not well be otherwise
than they are,—l also transmit a list of the of ctrs who Were ,::.1,
pinged on this service, and of the captures made. Withiq a

eonsisting or six each. I ant, &c. (Signed) trOLIANGvroom
His Majesty's ship Amphion, off the Cuist
of Erbil, August 9.8, 1809.
Sir—l beg leave to inform you of a most gallant
and successful attack made by the boats of this ship
and a detachment of seamen and marines on the
enemy's force at Cortelazzo, consisting of six gun-
boats, and a convoy of merchant Trabaculosjinoored
in a strong position under a battery of four twenty-
four pounders, at the mouth of the Piavie, and in
sight of the Italian squadron at Venice.
I had feconnoitred them on the 24th instant, anti,
found it impracticable, from the shallowness of the
water, to get the ship in, but I conceived they might
be cut out by the boats, provided I could carry the
battery ; and this opinion was.confirmed by a fisher-
man I detained the s.,,me evening, who gave me a
very correct account of their force and situation : to
prevent any suspicion of my design, I kept out of
sight of the land till the evening of the 26th, when I
crowded all possible sail, and we anchored off the
entrance of the Piavie, at one on the morning of the
27th. At three a detachment of seamen and ma-
rines, commanded by Lieutenant Phillott, First Lieu-
tenant, assisted by Lieutenant Jones (2), and Moore
of the marines, in all seventy men, were landed
about a mile below the battery to the southward, and
advanced immediately to storm it, leaving Lieutenant
Slaughter (Third Lieutenant) with the command of
the boats; to posh for the river the instant the fort was
carried : at a quarter past three the alarm was given,
the attack was made the same instant, and such vi-
gour in the assault, that in ten minutes the fort was
completely in our possession, and the concerted signal
made, the guns were instantly turned on the gun-
boats, the fire on which, and musketry from the ma -
rifles, whom Lieutenant Moore had placed in a most
excellent situation, compelled them to instant sur-
render, and our boats took possession of the gun-
boats and vessels, as per enclosed list ; two of the
former are of the largest dimensions,
The battery was a complete work, with a ditch,
and chevaux de frize round it, and obi men entered
it first by scaling ladders ; the Commandant of the
fort made his escape with some of his men, two were
found dead, and one wounded, the rest, consisting of
sixteen of the 3d regiment of light infantry, were
made prisoners. Having spiked the guns, and totally
destroyed the battery and barrack, the whole detach-
ment was reimbarked by one P. M.
I have now, Sir, the additional pleasure of saying,
that this service was performed without the loss of a
man on our part. One marine alone was wounded
by an explosion of powder after we had possessibn,
but he is doing well.
The gallantry and good conduct of the command-
ing Lieutenant, Mr. Phillott, in the execution of this
attack, speaks for itself ; I have only to say, he had
the entire conducting of it, and on this, as on many
other occasions, fully justified the confidence I placed •
in him. He speaks in the warmest terms of Lieute-
nant Jones and Moore, and the officers and men un-
der his orders ; the prompt manner in which Lieute-
nant Jones turned the guns on the enemy's vessels,
and the judicious disposition of the marines by Lieu-
tenant Moore, is highly praise worthy. In the va-
riety of boat service we have had, these officers have
particularly distinguished thethselves, and some
months back were both severely wounded. The si.
knee and regularity of the seamen and marines in
their advance to the fort, and their bravery in the at-
tack, is equally deserving of praise, and truly charac-
teristic of British seamen. Inclosed is a list of ilie
officers and midshipmen employed on shore and in
the boats. -
The surrender of the gun boats was so quick, that
our boats had not time to join in the attack on them,
but were most actively employed afterwards in getting
the prizes our, under the direction of Lieutenant
Slaughter. The above vessels were stationed at Cor-
telazzo for the express purpose of protecting the trade
between Venice and Trie,te, and were commanded
by a Commandant de l)ivis;on, Mons. Villeneuve,
who is made prisoner. I have, &c. (Signed)
