BURMA.

The following account is given of the
recent chas.isement OF the Burmese at Rangoon, by
the English:
Burmese officers came repeatedly to the flagship
to offer for the ruoeness OF the vIceroy bat
none OF them were accredited The Com mod ore in
sisted that the Viceroy should himself apologize
In the evening two messengers arrived with writ
ten document from the vIcsroy, stating that If the
Commodore attempted to pass two stockades which
had been erected down the river, he would be fred
upon 1t was now apparent that the plan Of sending
Unauthorized officers succession to proptlate the
Commodore, was merely rEse to gain time.
During the night OF Wednesday aud the folio wing
day numerous wal. boats, with from so to so armed
men in each, were sent down to be ready to attack
the shipf as well as some Is guns On Friday,
about noon, five large war boats, crowded with men,
came down the Pegu River, and others proceeded
from Rsngoon to rendezvous At the st0ckades, at
which 1000 troops were said TO be congreg ated. On
Saturday morning the Hermes steamer towed the
ffigate Gown, and she anchored about four hundred
yards from the siockade. Allthe merchantmen alse
passed down. About nine IN the morning the steam
er was seer rounding the point, with the Burmese
prize vessel in tow. AS she passed the Fox, first
single gun, and then another, and then others in
rapid succession were fired upon the two vessels OF
war, ard volIeys OF muske!ry were opened on them.
Instantly the frgste opened terrific fire the
stock ade and the boats which had ventuYed out
into the rivsr. The Hermes then came up and
poured in her shot along the whole line of the de-
fense. l; was more than two hours before the firing
ceased.
When the vessels left the spot not living Bur-
mese was to be seen. The number Of killed on the
part OF the enemy was reported at 300, and possibly
double that number wounded. Ii was a terrible
lesson for the Burmese, but it 10 not likely to be
useful to those who al the head OF affairs. AZ
ter this engagement with the stockades, he came
round to Calcutta in the Hermes to report progress
and receive further instructions.
