After leaving Sattarah on are morning of the 29th
ult. I rejoined the reserve the following day about
noon. On my arrival, I found that an order from
Appa t Dessye. to his Officer A Manowlie t, direct-
ing the. immediate surrender of that place to the
Company, had been received in Camp, and dis-
patched about an hour before. Though the order
itself was perfectly dear, I was convinced, both from
the character of the Dessye and his recent conduct,
that it would norbe acted upon without an attempt
Lcing made to gain time, and to try the effect of ne-
katiation ; I therefore determined to prevent all un-
necessary delay by marching to Nepawnie.
The Dewan I•Tarreer Phunt said, that he wonld
himself instantly proceed to Manowlie and &lied it
up: lie set out in the evening with a party *of 20
horse, travelled all night, and reached Manowlie in
the afternoon -of' the 31st tilt. and made over the
place to my Authorities next morning. .
When I marched from Erroor on the 31st Alt.
ppa Dessye bad sent an order for the giving op the
District cf Chuckerie N. His second Dewan Singoo
Punt, who accompanied me,proposed to deliver up
the Sircar, uni retain the Enam villages c. This
plan was at once rojected, because it would in fact
have enabled the Dessye to continue to maintain a
number of his servants at the expense of the Dis-
tricts. I told the Dewan that the order must be for
the surrender of the whole District without any re-
ientstion, and that it must be brought to me before
my arrival at Nepawnie. He met me on the march
yesterday morning with this order, but as it reserved
the Enam villages, it was returned to him, and he
soon after came back with another order of uncondi-
tional surrender.

Csmp before Malligaum, June 1, 1818.
Oa the 2Dth ult. I did myself the honour of report-
ing to the Quarter-Nlaster-General of the Army, for
the information of his Excellency the Commander-in-
Chief, the movements and (*rations of the detach-
ment I command, up to that, day.
I have now the honour offorwarding a return of
kilted and wounded, from the 18th to -the 29th of
last month.
On the 28th the breach in the curtain of the Fort
of Melligaum was reported and appeared pncticable!
and the stfainr engineer, Ensign Nattes, recontmended
storming nert morning.
I made my arrangements for three simultaneous
attacks, two on the outworks and Pettah on the op-
posite side, commanded by Llent.-Colonel etewart
and Major Macbean, and the third and principal one
on the 'road leading to the breach, under Major
Greenhill, who had joined me with the '2d battalion
17th, or C. L. I. off the evening of the 27th. This
ittack consisted of 100 Europeans 500 Sepoys, of
different corps, mostly of the 2d battalion of the
Prth, and, headed by Ensign Nattes, sappers and'
Miners, ladders, &c. every man carrying two bags!
filled with wet grass, Ensign Nattes himself setting
the example. Me road leading to the breach of the
outworks is flanked ty towers and loop-holes ; how-
ever, our men moved on gallantly until Ensign
Nattes got to the top of the breach, when he called
impracticable!" and immediately received five
bails in different parts of his body. Major Greenhill
ho.d fallen a little be!l:nd. in consequence of a wound
in the heel ; but Captain Kennedy led on the advance,
and was mortally wounded, close to where poor
Nattes fell. All this time, the fire from the towels

and loop-h Oles was kept pretty well under by our
shot, shells, and musketry, from the reserve. I was
obliged, howe.ver, tv sound the recall, and our brave
• troops returned more convinced of their superiority
over these-Arabs than when they advanced. Captain
Kennedy_ and Eniign Nttes, with most of the
wounded men, were brotgiht back ; but Lieutenant
Wilkinson, of the second ..tmlion'of the 13th rel 4;

hAve no doubt we should have carried the.plaie; but
there was *to road, the enemy having cut sway from
the inside of the breach of the outwork three times

As the attention of the enemy was drawn to this
