This corps is. the only one re- 
maining entire. 
I am not yet able to transmit 
y.our lordship returns of the kill- 
ed and wounded inthe army in 
the late actions. 
It-gives me the greatest satis- 
faction.to inform you, that Col. 
Delancy is not dead: he is badly 
wounded, but his recovery is not 
doubted, and I hope will be early. 
Joncourt, June 25, 1815. 
Finding that the garrison of 
Cambray was not very strong, 
and that the place was not very 
well supplied with what was 
wanting for its defence, I sent 
Lieutenant-general Sir Charles 
Colville there, on the day before 
yesterday, with one brigade of 
the 4th division, and Sir C. 
Grant’s brigade of cavalry ; and 
upon his report of the strength 
of the place, I sent the whole di- 
vision yesterday morning. 
I have now the satisfaction of 
reporting that Sir Charles Col- 
ville took the town by escalade 
yesterday evening, with trifling 
Joss, and from the communica- 
tions which he has since had with 
the governor of the citadel, I 
have every reasonto hope that that 
post will have been surrendered 
to a governor sent there by the 
King of France, to take posses- 
sion of it, in the course of this 
day. 
St. Quentin has been abandon- 
ed by the enemy, and is in pos- 
session of Marshal. Prince Blu- 
cher ; and the castle of Guise sur- 
rendered last night. 
All accounts concur in Stating, 
that itis impossible for the ene- 
my to coilect an army to make 
head against us.

A dispatch, of which the fol-

Jast night by Earl Bathurst, ad- 
dressed to his lordship by the 
Duke of Wellington, dated 
Orvillé, June\29,181G0 
The citadel of Cambray sur- 
rendered on the evening of the 
25th instant, and the King of 
France proceeded there with his 
Court and his troops on the 26th. 
I have given that fort over en- 
tirely to his Majesty. 
I attacked Peronne, with the 
Ist brigade of guards, under Ma- 
jor-General Maitland, on the 26th 
in the afternoon. The troops 
took the -hornwork, which covers 
the suburb on the left of the 
Somme, by storm, with but small 
loss; and the town immediately 
afterwards surrendered, on con- 
dition that the garrison should 
lay down their arms and be-al- 
lowed to return to their homes. . 
The troops upon this occasion 
behaved remarkably well; and I 
have great pleasure in reporting 
the good conduct of a battery. of 
artillery of the troops of the Ne- 
therlands, 
I have placed in garrison there 
two battalions of the troops of the 
king of the Netherlands,

Blucher and myself have conti
