Captain Stoptord cif the Royal Navy, arrived to-day at this Office with Dispatches. of which the folkowing are copies and extracts, addressed to John Wilson Croker, Esq. by Rear Ad miral the Hon. Robert Stopford, Commander in Chief of his Majesty's ships and vessels at the Cape of Good Hope, and Commodore Broughton, late senior officer of his Majesty's ships - - In the East Indies. His Majesty's ship Scipion, Batavia Roads, Sia, Aug. 28, 1811. 1 shall confine myself in this letter to the relation of the cir• cumstances attending the naval co-operation with the army, in the attack upon the Island of Java; and 1 have to request, you will acquaint my Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty, with the unconditional surrender of the capital city of Batavia, on the lith inst. and the destruction or capture. of the greatest part of the enemy's European troops, by a successful assault, made up on a strongly-entrenched and fo r t ified work, called uster Cor nelis, on the morning of the 26th, by the troops under the com mand of Lieutenant-General-Sir Samuel Auchmuty, who bad also with him the Royal Marines of the squadron. Previous to this important and decisive advantage, the Gene ral had caused batteries to be erected, consisting of twenty 18-potinders, which were entirely manned by live hundred sea men, from his N iajesty's ships, under the direction of Captain Sayer, of his Majesty's ship Leda, assisted by Captains Festing, acting Captain of the Illustrious; Mansell, of the Proctis ; Reynolds, of the ljesper; and Captain Stopford, who volun teered his services front the Scfpion, where he was waiting for bis.ship, the Otter. The enemy was enabled to bring- . thirty-four heavy guns, eighteen, twenty-four, and thirty-two pounders, to bear upon our batteries ; but front the superior and well•directed tire kept up by the British seAnien, the enemy's guns were occasionally silenced, and, on the evening of I helt.sth, completely so • their front line of defence also appear e d much dama g ed, and many of their guns were dismounted. So favourable an oboortunity was. therefore. seised by the REGISTER. 805 General, and the fortunate result of the assault, on the morn ing of the 26th, followed, as before-mentioned. 'l'be fatigue of the seamen was great, and much increased, by being exposed to the hot sun of this' climate, for three succes sive days, during which time, the fire was kept up with little interruption, but it w as borne with their characteristic fortitude Captain Sayer, and the Officers above-mentioned, setting them noble examples. 1 beg leave to acknowledge my thanks to Commodore Brough ton for his ready assistance, advice, and co-operation in all measures relating to the public service. The conduct of the Royal Marines in the various services in Which they have been employed with the army, and at the as saults of the place, was so meritorious as to procure them the public thanks of the Commander in Chief of the Forces. I herewith inclose a list of the killed and wounded ; and it is with much regret I add the name of Captain Stopford, who had his right arm carried off by a cannon shot whilst actively em ployed in the batteries • he is however doing well, and I hope soon to get him remove d ' to a better climate. Lieutenant-General Sir Samuel Achmuty being desirous of transmitting an account of his success to England, I send this dispatch by the Caroline, which ship was previously under or ders to go home ; and I am happy to avail myself of so good an opportunity as is offered by Capt. Cole, who has had a large share in every thing relating to this expedition, and from his knowledge of all the parts of the operations, call communicate to their Lordships the fullest account of them. • • I have the honour to be, &c.
