steady unanimity at all times and in all fit nations, nad

on which occafiou their courage and examplary and

diuefs of Mr. Harrifon, the firlt lieutenant, and met
his prompt execution of my orders, did essentially l» r £
facilitate our fuccefa. It is my sincere wish to par- bro

comes a difficult talk. In addition to the officers '«'<

1 HAVE thehonor to lay before you a narra- nv
tive of the proceedings of the squadron under my m
command since my departure trom Co*k on the lo!
19th ult. On the following day, in confequenre co
of my having received intelligence of the enemy's th
privateers being on the coast, to the northward of
Cape Clear, I dispatched his majesty's sloop Hazard, bt
with orders to Lieut. Paiker, her commander, to cc
cruize between the Cape and the mouth of the li<
Shannon, while I, for the mora effedtual protec- at
tion of our trade, cruized with the Santa/ Marga- r<
retta in the vicinity of Cape Clear. I had the fa- tl
y'jfadtion a few days afterwards to learn that rhe ft
Hazard had retaken two prizes, and had ichaced a
the privateer off the coast that captured them, after si
a narrow escape from being taken. On the 11 th p
' inft. having met with other (hips of the lrifh lta o
tion, I Concluded upon mak'ing a circuit on the ai
otifer limitß of my station, accompanied by the al
Santa Margaretta, and at dawn of day on the Bth y
inft. Scilly bearing E. half S. 17 leagues, we dif- n
colored three (hips of war 011 our lee-beam, distant a
two or three miles, to which we immediately gave C
chace, and soon afterwards perceived them to edge
away, and that they were eneniy's (hips, two sri- C
gates and a large (hip corvette. At 9, A M. they
formed themselves into a close bow and quarter lire,
and continued to run from us in that position, the
large (I (hip under easy fail, for the support of his
squadron. In this situation we approached them 1
very fact, and muftiiave fpeedil/ brought them to b
aflion.—l therefore made the signal to form f r si
battle, the Marga'etta being at this time ahead of a
the Unicorn, and at the fame time direfied< her by d
signal to come to learn from Captain F
Martin his opinion of the enemy's fo-ee, who in ft
formed me, that the largest ship 38 gun sri- F
gate, the Thames, and a corvette. ' I ordered Cap- 4
tain Martin to attack the Thames, acquainting him b
with my intention to fight'the large ship with the it
Unicorn. On our nearer approach, the corvette, I
which detained the o'her (hips, gradually hauled si
out to windward, and passed our weather-beam in u
long gun-(hot, fleering afterwards the fame course e
as the other (hips, and with the intention, I then n
imagined, to be in to give support to ei- a
tner of her friends, eventually molt needing it.
At !, P. M. the two frigates hoilled French co- 7
lours, th: Jargeft ship a commodore's pendant, and d
at the fame moment eommenced a quick and well
♦
•
directed n fir» on us with their flern chacti. The
corvette at this time hauled more up, and to my
great astonishment, brought to, to board a sloop
passing ui on the contrary tack. As the cotnmo- j
dore continued to wait for the Thames, we thereby -V ont
approached them both, bat were cc-nfiderably ry
carded by the effefls of their (hot. At 4, P. the
Themes being the fternmoft, bore round up, to a- .J ns
void the fire from the Unicorn, and to pour a r rum
broadlide into the Marga?etta's bow, when 1 had 'j
the pleasure to fee Captain Martin mar.oeuvre his
(hip with the greatest jndgment, and with the ut- Jl
most gallantry he laid himfelf close along fide his morf
opponent. The ftiperior and well direfled fire from
the Santa Margaretta, marked the discipline of his
ship, and soon put the Thames into his poffeflion.
The commodore, on feting his companion fall,
m«dc all fail, and by a fuddefi and judicious, tho'
unfuccefsful rnancsuvre, endeavored to gain the
wind of the Unicorn. We.were at this"time cha* .
ing him toward the entrance of the Irifn channel, (
and soon after passed clpf; to the Talker Kork.
The parity of failing in the two ships, aided by
the judgment of the enemy's commander, kept us (
at running fight for ten hours, during which period
■ we were much annoyed in our fails and rigging,
. j and were for fpme time unluckily deprived of the
, ! use of our main topsail ; but on its falling less
: wind, afier dark, we were enabled to use our fu-
, I pernumerary flying fails, royal fteeiing fails, &«. ;
r whish, by (low degrees, brought us so near his wea
tlier quarter, as to take the wind from his fails;
1" when, at half past ten at night, after having pur-
. sued 210 miles, (he shot up along fide of our an
s tagomft, gave him three cheers, and commenced . ( t(
J clife ivftion, which'* jntinued in that position with
3 great impe'tuoficy on both fides for 35 minutes ;
J when, 011 clearing up of the smoke, I obfeived that
, the enemy had dropt on oor quarter, was close
h hauled, attempting by a malterly manoeuvre to cross
■ ( our (tern and gain the wind. This was happily
1! prevented, by our instantly throwing all a back,
. and, giving the (hip strong (tern way, by which we
palled his bow, regaining our tituation, ~md renew
ed the a'tack. The effeas of our fire soon put
,e an end to all manoeuvre, for the enemy's ship was
, e completely dismantled, her fire ceased, and all fur-
2 ther resistance appearing to be ineffe&ual, they cal-
,e led to us they had surrendered. The /hip proves 1
to be La Tribune, commanded by commodorc John
e . MotiHon, mounting 44 guns, thpug'n pierccd for
, e 48; on the main deck 26 twelves, on the quarter-

less than the confidence of the most gallant support 1

BRUSSELS, 28 Prairial (June 17.) „
Wc present the following detail of news from the
J borders of tbe Rhine. The army commaaded by j
Kit bet is beyond the Lahn, where he has received
' a retoforcemest of three divisions from the army of
Jourdan. This reinforcement amounts to about
' 26,000 mt 11, besides several regiments •of cavalry, t
dragoons, infantry and hufF*rs, Thefc reinforce- ~
merits were necessary, because the Aufltians have,
j at this moment, near Frankfort a considerable ar " !
my which has been increafedby troops from the. j^ a[
' coips commanded by Arch-duke Charles. The j ~
- 1 " French and Austrian armies abandon, by degrees, j v „
3 the left bank to pass to the right, where matters '
are expected to have a fetious issue. Jourdan will j ( j )a[
' be in prrfon with'the army which is near the Lahn,
'* and will leave to Gen. Marceau the command of a
' corps of fcbfervation on the borders of the Nahe 5 j^ n(
r " tbis corps is destined principally to prevent the ene- „
my from making an attempt, during his absence Q g|
, into the Hundfruck. The head quarters oflhe ar-
' my' of the Sambre and Meufe, departed on the 24th
' ' from Munfter-Mainfield, to Neuwied, where the
mod part of she military administrations were al-
r ready. att .
, Since the bloody affairs of the 4th, sth and 6th j
IJ of this month, on the right bank of the Rhine, there
' have been no decisive engagements ; but every day ,
VC the patroles of cavalry have fkirmifiies, in which
the nre various. This fampui Aottrif"
Ut cavalry which passes for the firft of Europe,
" ord
not an urvtiuth, has often been beaten by an equal
V forc<of Republicans. If thefuccefs of the F»ench
1 troops, however, has been rapid on the right bank
18 of the Rhine, it mult be acknowledged they have
!ln coll some flood. The towns of Cologne, Bonn, eft .
and Andernach are fi'led with wounded. They
:f " have carried them in great numbers into the villages
,°" situated betwixt the MeJfeand the Rhirjp.

-' ,Ths whole ot the army commanded by Gen. Jour- cq
dan, has quitted the to pais the Rhine,
""r and carry the theatre of war to the right bank of

" et Charles has removed his army to cover Frankfort.
m " There arc no Austrian troops to covcr Mayence on )f

I? ' S polls on the point-, that rhey might carry all their
f " R orces to the right bank. Tfie army of Jourdan is
emcamptd on this fide of the Lahn, and that of the
30 . Auftrians is on the other. In this Sate of things,
it cannot be long before we hear of a general battle. cc

wing of the army of the Sambre and Meufe, and

WTurtnfcr, between Frankenhal and tlie Rebut;
hia front was covered by a swampy catial, and his
left by the Rebach. The enemy had augmented
the force of this excellent position, fe>y barricade*
all along the river, whico was inundated to about
150 or 200 fathoms.
" The bravery of the army and the good con
daft of the chiefs and the general officers vanquifti
ed, in a (ho't time, all these nearly insurmountable
obfVacles. The troops up to the arm-pita in water,
and under the ftiarpeft fire of artillery and mufquet
ry, charged the enemy with the greateit courage,
and carried all the Works which defended thel'c in
undations. All who were not killed in the en
trenchments," were taken in the greatest disorder.
" The numerous cavalry of the enemy no*
prevent our infantry from pursuing them thiough
the immense plain which fepaiated u« from Man

j of bridges for the padige of out cavalry i and to
I effift the driving of the enemy into their entrench

" The affair was a capital marcetivre of cavalry
' and light artillery, and we chafed them . ont posi
tion to position, until we came under the lire of
1 Manheim. We have occupied in the Evening the
' positions which the enemy had loft*
' ! " The loss of the enemy is very considerable in
j killed and wounded ; I reckon the number not lef*
1 than 6or 700 msn. The time neceflary for con
' ftrufting bridges for the paflsge of our cavalry,
* prevented us from making a great number of pri
' foners.
" The centve*of the army Under the orders of
e General DcfTaix, has attacked the Rebut and Neu

ferlladt and Mutteftadt. These attacks were di

attacked Holtzhof, and would attack Frankenthal
—it was directed by the general of division Du

" What 1 had the honour to predict to you is
come to pass. The enemy, after having drawn al- .
C ) most the whole of their forces from the left bank of
the Rhine to (lie right, the Archduke having aug
, mented lu's army with some corps from that, of
Wurmfer, was on the Lahn with much more confi.
3 j' derable foice than I could draw together, and pro
fiting by this advantage, having it in his power to
make his movement much more promptly than me,
he has made his way to the Upper Lahn, fp that
c when I would havepafTed the van-guard on the 27th
j £ ' from the fide of Vetzlar, General I.efebvre, who
commanded it, was attacked by a great body of the
atmy. This brave gtneral did not think it his du
»y to re'ire without fighting;, engaged the enemy,
lc " and a serious combat ensued, of which 1 cannot as
yet give you the details. The moment lam in pr>f.

118 Our loss may amount to 150 or 300 men, killed,
wounded or pi ifoners. The number of the latter
is small, and we have made a coniidetaule number.
Four pieces ps cannon have fallen into the hands of
n tha enemy, which they charged with incredible
ent impetuofify, but which they could not ha.ve seized
