That wheeling of long Lines be avoided as dangerous on broken, and diSicult even on plain Gn»und. 3d. That all Manoeuvres be executed by one fmgle Order, and that they be as fimple as pof- fible. 4th. That even in Retreats when the Batta- lion is ordered to form, it ought to be perform- ed by a prcgreffive Movement, as it will always give die Men more fpirits to advance upon, than to retire from an Enemy. Different kinds of Mant^uvres. AH Manoeuvres are begun either from the Flanks, from the centers of Battalions, Wings, &c. or by Divifions marching in Front, doublmgi &c.

ANYof thefc Manoeuvres may be altered a little upon Occafion 5 for Inftance, by No 7. a Battalion retires by Files in Column^ and is entirely pafTed the Defilee, before it is ordered to form, and then they wheel to the Right and Left, and march obliquely ; but if it is neceffary to line a Raviii, &cc. at the Defilee, farther than which, one does not chufe to re* rcat •, then the two firll Platoons that pafs march to the Right and Left, leaving Room between them for the Battalion to form, and as foon as they have got to their proper Dlftance, they line the Defence, and endeavour to keep up a croG fire to prated that Part of the Batta- lion, not then pafled. It would be abfurd to fix Places in thefe Ma- nceuvres for the Grenadier Company, as its Place when with the Battalion (which feldom happens) mud be regulated by the comm.anding OiBccr's private Order, according to the fiiua- tion ot the Ground ; for Inftance in Plate 7, A Battalion pafles two Bridges, and if near the Right Hand one, on the other fide the River, there is an old Caftlc : The Grenadier Company ought to pafs the Right Hand Bridge, drive the Enemy from the Cattle, and t'ike roircfllgn of it, by which they proteit one Flank. I i ( i6 ) I ftall not here enter into the Ufcs of thefc Manceuvres, as that would oblige me to aug- ment their number. As the Principles of thenii are laid down and Examples enough given; every Officer may invent new ones, to anfwer the Situation he is in with his Battalion. I (hall conclude this Effay by adding two more upon Retreats, from a larger Treatife now in Hands. RE T R EATS. -" And the Battalion of Grenadiers make ** the Rear Guard, marching by its right." A''.

It happens fometimes that a Battalion is at- tacked upon its Flank, in which Cafe the fol- lowing Orders muft be given, for Inftance, if your Enemy are approaching the left Flank, " Battalion to the Lefi change your Front. " Battalion to the Left wheel by Sub Divi- lions, P, 17 >* «s To '"^, ( 17 ) *' To the Left march obliquely and Drcfs. If the Enemy is fo near as to prevent the Manoeuvre being finiHied, then the firft Sub Divifion fires and retires to i — the fecond halts, fires and retires to 2 — the third halts till the Enemy approaches nearer, and fires and retires to 3. The others obfervc the fame Order, and the laft likevvife halting as long as poffible, 10 give the others Time to load again and form the Line, and then it fires and retires to 8; Memorandum. BY turn to the Rear it is always meant that the Rear Rank fl^ould then have at its Back the Center, and Front, and by turn to the Front, vice verfa, for inftance, a Battalion marching by Files to its Right, is ordered to turn to its Rear, the Rear Rank then becoxes a Front, as P. 16. B. And does not turn to the Right about towards the Rear of the Battalion. In No. 4. Thefe Orders are given, " Right Hand Platoons roaich out to the Front/ " Platoons march obliquely to the Right and Cover. Both rhefc orders arc executing at the lame Time, therefore the laft of them is only addrcf- to the remaining Platoons ; th.s is to bi;reinem- C bercd i .••*> f f, ^' ( i8 ) be red in all the Explanations becaufe every Part of the Battalion muft be moving nt the fame Inftant. and therefore it never will [Manoeuvre well till -the Explanations are. laid afidc. and nothing heard in \he Field hut i!ie fingle Order printed in Italics, and then the word halt, ;nade Ufe of in the Explanations will be no- more necefiaiy, in place of which, part (a the Satraiion v^^ill march flow till the rell are corTiC into their proper Place.
