BATTLE WITH PIRATES.
We learn from Capt: Cotton, of the
schooner Thetis, which arrived last
svening from Manzanilla, south side
f Cuba, that on the 9th of May, while
lying in the harbor, the Supercargo
received intelligence that three canoes
intended to cut the schooner out that
night. Measures were immediately
taken, to put the Thetis in a state of
defence : big guns were loaded, and
the muskets got rea, and all bands
put in fighting orders At 8 P. M. the
supercargo came ontboard with four
soldiers which the Commandant of]
the Port lent for thenccasion.—Thus
prepared, a good look ‘out was kept,
and at half past 11, three canoes were
perceived coming from the Keys op-
posite the port; witle oars muffled.
As they approached 12 men were
counted in each boat. As the Pirates
came up, they were hailed, but they
were silent as death. A pistol was
now discharged in the air, when the

gun. The defenders of the Thetis
opened a brisk fire, which the Pirates
returned as briskly, and this lasted
fifteen minutes-——when the great guns,
well charged with round and grape
shot, was opened upon them, and they
quickly made their way for the shore:
On the following morning three of
the Pirates were found dead on the

almost cut in two with a single grape

was found in one of the Keys almos:
