From the London Gazette, Satur- troops I had collected at this pe COPY day, Feb. 13. NOPY of a dispatch from Colonel Gillespie, commander of the forces in Java, to the Hon. T. S. Raffles, lieut. governor of that island, dated Djojocarta, June 25, 1812: Honourable Sir,-Without entering upon any of the political points on which you did me the honour to consult with me, previous to the adoption of hostilities against the Sultan of Djojocarta, I shall proceed to report to you the various operations of our small force, and the measures adopted under my authority for bringing this insolent and refractory sovereign to a sense of what was due to the supremacy of the British government upon Java.

I accordingly desired a detachment of fifty dragoons to escort me on a reconnoitering party, and I proceeded with my staff along the east wall of the Krattan, and pursued them on a road to the eastward, which the people of the country reported they had taken. After a very circuitous route, we arrived again upon the environs of the town, where we found large bodies of the enemy collected, who were well armed, and evidently prepared |
