who had taken up a strong position on
the slope of Diamond Head, attacked

more OF the regulars we're cent out. The
number OF insurgents was variousy esti-
mated from 100 to 200. With Coyns's
force was sent an eight centimeter field

which a stone wall extends, behind
which large body OF insurgents with
a small howitzer were established. The
first intimation Murray's forces had of
an enemy was shower of bullets aud
shrapnel, which did no harm. Had the
natives waited little longer Murray's
troops could have been annihilatsd.
They re!reated short distance estab-

Lieutenant King, t he object being to
prevent any possible retreat. This fight
occurred on the side of a mountain,
whose eerrated sidss form almost
inaccessible valleys of little width.
1t was the object OF tho government
troops to drive the rebels around the
base OF the mountain, from which there
is no escape except over the famous
Pali road, which 10 or 20 men could
hold against small army. AS soon as
