on 'the side of the Paris gate had also succeeded the
ens directed by Captain Sharpe, Royal Engineers,
forced the outer gates.of the Corre Port in the'liorn
work, and passed both ditches, by means of the rails
of the draw-bridges, which they scrambled over by
the side, not being able to force the main gate they
escaladed by the breach (the state of which your
Grace had observed) in the morning, and before
which, although the ditch was said to have twelve
feet water, a tooting on dry ground was found, by
wading through a narrow portin the angle ofthe gate,
within the rampart. I have ever"), reason to be sa-
tisfied with the light infantry of the division, who,
by their fire, covered the attack of the parties, of
60 men each, which preceded the colmnri.
The three brigades of artillery of Lieutenant• C-
olonel Webber
.Smith, and Majors Knott and Brown,
under the direction of •Lieutenant-Colonel Hawker,
made particularly good *practice, and immediaiety
silenced the fire of the enemy's artillery, except from
two guns on'each flank of. the. citadel, which could '
not be got et, and two field-pieces on the ramparts
of the town, above the Valenciennes gate, and %iiich
played upon thug troops..as they debouched' from
the cover they had been posted in. Twenty prisoners
were made at the horn-work of the Parl".gate, and
about an hutidred_and thirty altiiget her in'the toes.
Their fire was verf slack and even (Rio,' I foresaw,
they were forced to, by The garrison of the citadel.
I left the 23d and 9lst regiments in town, with two
guns and a troop of &viol ti hitissers, tim 'much
indebted to Sir William Douglas and Col. Dahmer
for their assistance in preserving order.
Some depredations were committed,-:.but .of no
consequence, when the circtonstances ive Itte.red by
are considered.
