Extract of a letter from ,captain Truxton 10
the Secretary of ibe Navy, dated Port
■ R jai ' Harbour, Jamaica, 12th of Fe
bruary, 1800.
" I arrived here the Bth inft. in company
with the Infiiigente, capt. Murray, with
whom I fell in, the day after I wrote you
by lieut. Shaw.
" Finding it imp. flible to get a main-mast
here, I shall use every oifpatch in my pow
er to ptit the Condi llation into a condition
to prrceeJ to the United States; I have
met a kind and friendly reception from Ad
miral Parker ; all the British pod captains
here have beer, on board the Constellation,
«nd from feeing our situation, expref« eve y
ftiviimcnt that cruld be wished by thofc
true Americans who love their country and
its holH.tir better than any thins; else.
" t have heard nothing of the French 54
en., (hip firice the aftioi! It is hard to con
jeflure whether (he funk, or whether (he has
got into St. Thomas's or Curacoa. if
(he is rtill above water, flic- mud be irrepar
able in the Weft-Indies. Ht r Ms of m . n
.muil have been prodigious in a-i a&ion cf
five hours, with 6co men or. board : My
fire was diic&ed prince-ally a'HSei 1 ' hull.
" Sev'sral of my officers hare told me that
thry thought they saw her g . down—cer
tain it is, that the (hip and her lights di ap
peared of a fiidden, and we ought to have
I'cenlier at daylight. But I was so en
s lcy'ed tnyfclf, in preserving oar fcre-maflT
and mizen triaft, after the main inafl. went
over the fide, that I attended to nothing
elft."
JLxtraH of a letter fro a c,ipt Baker, of the
Delaware flocp of war, to the Secretary of
the Navy, dated Cur a oa, Sih F.b. 1800.
On 'he 6ih in ft, appeared off this har-
a French {hip of 52 guns, called La
Vengetnce, and from what I can learn, {he
Test Gu:idaloupe lsift Sunday, bpund Co
France, wi'Kja grea' deal of mosey, &c. on
board ; and alfu two French general , and
a number of ether officers and passengers :
but or. Monday evening Ihe was overtaken
by an Arm rican-or Biitifti frigate (but ge
nerally belitved tp b« the former) and from
her (hattertd condition, {lie mud have had a
very severe aftion, La Vengeance having
less Itanding but her bowsprit, fore and mi
zen mast ; her fore and mizen (hrouds, rat
lings, &c. being cut up so, that you could
scarce fee any of them for stoppers. In
{hort, there appears no place that has esca
ped a llv t : her (larboard fide has been much
hulled, and it is said, she had 140 killed and
wounded, and when {he parted file had 8
fret water i 1 the hold. They fay the other
vefTel was in a fimllar situation, and in fafl,
that neither of them had the command of
their {hips. The French {hip i» now hauled
up in the harbour, and will require fr.me
months tori fit, not having mall', cordage,
&e. for that purpofr.
P. S. This moment arrived a fchooncr
from St. Thomas's with an American gen
tleman on board. They were spoke by a
British frigate this morning at 8 o'clock,
who informed them that yesterday he spoke
Commc.dore Truxtow going down to la
maica, who informed th;m that L'ft Mon
day he got along fijle of a French 50
gun ftiip, and afteir a long and fevtre aftii n,
had the misfortune to lose his main-mad,
fore and raizen top mSft ; the (hip became
unmanageable, at which time, the French
ftlip made htr efc. pe, severely wouncjed.
Capt. Truxton said, that if he could have
kept along fide rj minutes longer he would
have taken her. This arrets with the
Trench report,, for they fay thvy were iri
fiich a fuuatioii, they eould i:ot have def.-ud
ed the (hip much longer.
NEW YORK, March 15
It is with c;reat pleaf'ire we announce
some further particulars relative to the lale
gallant eutert tiie of Captain Truxton,
which far ttirpafiea the brilliancy of his f r
;nsr txi:loit and which will place his name
high on the annals of American fame and
naval -prowefn
Last Tburfday night arrived the brig Re
becca, Captain Harding, in 25 days from
Curracoa ; by him antj by private 1- tter3 we
learn, that the veflel with which the Con
stellation fought, waq Le Vertguer, a French
ship of guns, and carrying 54, com
manded by Captain Perot,—fhe was bound
from Guadaloupe to France, with a valua
ble cargo of coffee aed fug.ir, an ! two mil
4iou of dollars with the Governor of Guada-
Joupe and family. Thia explains the cir
eumftance of her endeavouring to avoid an
af.ioh, When Le Vengeur entered Cur
racoa here fore and mizen mails were very
mtich shattered, her main mad gone entire
ly, ard her hull, rigging and fp;rs in a moil
forlorn condition : in faft {he appeared a
petfefi wreck, her pumps continually going,
and 701 8 feet water in her hold. Captain
Perot generouily bore tefumony to thq gal
lantry of our brave Truxtoii ; though it was
not till some days af'er he bad arrived, that
it was known that be Was his antagonist ;
ar.d Captain Perct frankly acknowledged,
that if the action had been continred 10 or
15 minute# longtr he would have been obli
ged to strike.
Ire Vengeur had on on buard 50 or 60
American prisoners. The crew confiding
6i 6oo_ men, of which 170 were during the
afliou killed Ad wounded. The Governor
ii said to have annimated the crew by his
own example, and with 5 or 6 passengers
toJiave. been wounded. A variety of other
i. ircunlftancu ate related, but we cannot
answer for their corr?ar.cfs—-On .this brilli
ant exploit we make but one obfervation
rruxton defcrvos from Congress a public
vote of thank>.
BALTIMORE, March^.
The following answer iv j made to commodore
rruxton refponjive to his address to his
fiip's crew after his engagement of the l/l
of February with the French 54 gun Jh'ip,
at Already pubUfhed in this paper, and pe
culiarly charaSet izes the patriotism and
bravery tf /Imericans.
ANSWER.
To OMMODOKE'fHUXTC.V
SIR,
The officers of every description, the
Seamen. marines, and every other belonging
to ihe United S (hip Constellation, cannot
suppress their lively feelings at the kind tri
bore which you have paid to their refpeilive
meritorious exertions.
They witbone voice proclaim that under
ftich a commander, whose example would
have made even cowardice brave, they muil
have been less than men, not to have aited
with the fame stimulus < f valor which thty
exhibited in the late eneagement with the
French national (hip of fifty four gluts.
They have, with Sincere regret, to lament
the loss of some ot their faithful comrades
who fell in the lap of viftory.
1 he circHmfl :nccs of lollng the prize is a
secondary consideration, which could only
devolve pecuniary advantages to the surviv
ors, ihe glory tnd honor of the combat be
ing difFu ed 10 'he whole.
in brhalf of ' in .'elves and the reft of the
(hip's company.
