Campbell ordered an attack to be made by four columns. The advance of the columns was preceded by a heavy cannonade. They were met by a heavy fire, but in spite of it they advanced to the entrench- ments and quickly put the defenders to the rout.
The Burmese main force was completely dispersed, and their loss is supposed to have been 5000 men. Two hundred and forty pieces of ordnance were taken, as well as a large number of muskets. Our loss in these affairs was less than 50 killed, but more th...an 300 wounded.
The Commander-in-Chief thus noticed the conduct of the Engineers and Pioneers : ' To Captain Cheape (Bengal Engineers), Commanding Engineer, and every individual of the department, the greatest credit is due, &c. ' The treaty of peace with Burmah was concluded on February 24, 1826. The Burmese Government engaged to abstain from all interference with the affairs of Assam, Cachar, and Jyntia, to receive a British Eesident at Ava, and depute a Burman Eesident GENERAL SIR JOHN CHEAPE 71 to Calcutta ; to concur in a commercial treaty, and to cede four provinces of Arracan, as well as Yeh, Tavoy Mergui, and Tenas- serim.
