His Excellency the Lieutexaxt GEi^EgttttCom- manding the Forces, has great satisfaction in puMKig to the Troops under his Command, the very strong expression of His Royal Higlmess the Prince Regent's approbation of their conduct in tlie late War, which is contained in the fol- In^j^ extracts of a letter from Earl Bathurst, one of His j>mPry's Secretaries of State : — " Downing Street, 13t'; June, 1815. " I should have felt that I was acting unjustly towards you and the offi- cers and men under your Command, if I had forborne bringing under the notice of His Koyal Highness the Prince Regent, the great and merit )rious exertions so long and so successfully made by them for the preservation ^f the Upper Pro- vince. I am commanded to assure you, that His Royal Highness has contempla- ted your efforts with the highest satisfaction, not more on account of the skill and valor uniformly displayed by His Majesty's Troops, in presence of the enemy, than of the patience with which the privations incident to the pecidiar nature of the service, were supported and finally overcome. " You will not fail to convey to the Troops under your Command, the strong. est expression of His Royal Highness's appn)l)ation, and to accept for yourself and tiie army under your orders, that testimony which His Royal Highness is so anxious to bear to the great service whii you iiave rendered to your country. " Nor is His Royal Higlincss insensible to the merits of the inhabitants of Upper-Canada, or to the great assistance which .e Militia of the Province afford- ed during the whole of the War ; — His Royal Higi' less trusts that you will ex- press to them in adequate tenns, the iiigh sense which he entertains of their ser- vices, as having mainly contributed to the immediate preservation of the Prov-.nce and its future security."
