Light Infantry were then purfiledlet glcram
of the Regiment along the fide of the New River sod
to the left of Hornfey wood, at the beck of which a
very heavy fire was kept up by both parties, but a
thong detachment having been lent out from the bat-
talion in order to take the enemy in the mar. thltY
were obliged to make a psecipitate retreat, Being%
fometimes on their bellies, and from bases end
ditches, until they arrived at Hanley Church, which
was now converted into Cafile, and the colours
were fattened to the weather cock em the tower.—
The Light Infantry then arranged themfelves round
the church yard, and having made a rapid move-
ment they had time to clean their pans and affix new
flints before the arrival of their purfuers, Who 'sow
furrounded the church yard and commenced a tre-
mendous firing on every Cade, which was returned by
the genital from off the tower and from the walls of
the church yard. Things remained in this Rate for
near a quarter of an hour, when the Grenadiers hay-
ing dikovered a fmall gate which was open, they
rased in, difarming and driving the garnfon in all
direffions. To Cave the place from being taken by
form, a flag of truce was now difpatcheff, hofiilities
ceded. and an honourable 'capitulation was granted.
The whole then marched to Highbury to dinner, and
with the health of the King, they drank oblivion to
theft brawls.

The dal was beautiful, and it was after (even in
the evening before the Regiment difmifed in Fa.
bory.fquare. We have not heard of any ferions ac-
cident,ercepting toone gentleman,Whohad a bayonet
ran through his hand.
