Sta—Being anxious to pufb my picquets upon
the left as far as poffible towards the enemy's ad-
vanced work, the redoubt de Bain, I direEled Lieu-
tenant-Colonel SMITH, with the if battalion of
the toth regiment, .affillid with a !mall detach-1
mein of the ;6th light dragoons, coamtanded by
Lieutenant KtiLtr, to attack and drive in the
French outpolls, open the right of their pofition.
He was to be ftippartedliy II battalion of infantry,
difpofed for that purple nil the Sand Hills.
Soon after deft lad night, Lieutenant-Colonel
&writ comotenecd the attack by turning the left
of the enemy's picquets, and foourieg the hills as

be advanced. -
" The cool and fpirited coildn& of that efficer and
the corps under his command, as alfo the detach-
anent of the 16th dragoons, is well deferring of
"rade ; not a man attempted to load and the whole
was effe&ed by the bayonet. The lofs of the enemy
in this affair amounted to upwards of one bun-
cited men killed, wounded and taken ; of the lat-
ter I enelofe the return.
This fervice was performed on our fide with the
lots of only three men flied), wounded ; and has
pbced me in a Situation to ere& a battery within
abbot fix hundred yards of Redoubt de Bain.
The enemy, however, extremely exafperated at
our fuccefs, made feveral attempts to regain the
ground he had loft ; with this view he kept up a
very heavy fire of cannon and mufquetry for about
an hour; when, finding all his endeavours ineffec-
tual, Ise retired leaving us peaceful poffeffors of the
advantage we had gained in the early part of the
night. Enclofed is a return of our lofs in the latter
part of the affair. I have the honour to be &c.
