announces the capture of the (hip Domi

Ma. Wavii,
IN your, paper of Saturday, T was
much plc*f<d \«nh your giving a Iketth of
tbe ungrateful condutf of the Eugfifli
conm'uuders at ti>« iO ind of Curracoa At
the fume time» V*eiviiig that you were not
perfectly acquainted with alf tine circumftap
ces attending tbe recapitulation of the island
to the British, and fiwrJmg ;tt every Americas
fhouM, the grofi- injisfllce on the part of
the Er.gtilh, 1 havecotilidertd it as tlicc'„,
ty of every American who was prefc'iit, to
state the facts as they occurred.
fcirly iu the morning rf t h; 2C >th of Sep
tember, the United Statrs (hips Merrimack
and P.uapt'cp, arrived'off tTie iflmid of Cur
racoa. At the fame time the Britilh frigate
Nereide, ciptaiil Watkir.s, was off the har
bour of Auiftrrdam, preventing all vefi'cls
from going in or coining out of it. Mr.
Philips (the American Consul) and his fann
iy» some time prt.vi.>iis, lud went on bjard
the Nereide as !i plate of fafcty. The
French, at the titiie the American (liips ap
peared off the iflaud, Ti»d po/Tcliiaa of one
half the town and the greater part of the
island. The poor Dutch were so terrified
that they had left their estates in the coun
try, and fled to that part of the c'ity called
Am Herd am. The arrival of the American
fliipi, stimulated the French to hafieu their
operations '—they accordingly marched a
large body of their troops within two
miles of the principal fort (Republic.) which
csmmands all the town and harbour, with
j the Intention of attacking it by storm. The
French soldiers had goat Ikins prepared to
fatten to their knees, to assist in climbing
the rock?, also their horses hoofs bound
with Ikins to prevent their approach being
heard. Every thing was now in readiness
for an adault. The Dutch fort had about
I :o men in all, a<d it was generally believ
ed that several of the officers, and great part
of the men were in the French interest.
The number of the French fej>t on this ex
pedition was supposed; tp.be (> <jr,J3-hundred
—another body of French, \y<as to have'at
tacked, at the fame time, the city.of Ani
fterdam, by eroding the harbour, which is
from about 100 to Joo yards wide, on rafts
of boats.
The Crisis had now arrived—the French
officers were confident of success—-spoke
openly to the American Gentlemen, who
were priftmers, of the ftreiigth of their party
:mong the Dutch. At this critical jun£lure,
the Dutch Governor, having loft confidence

Accordingly in tije cpurfe of one hour
or more, it w JS agreed between the
American and Britilh coiiinundns, . thu

harbour, was neceflary for the prefe initios

bcr hi the officers was reduced to one lieu
tenant, a failing mailer, marirte officer, fur-
Peon, "I'd three or four midOiipmen, two
of whom were too small to afford mui-h fer-
vice. Aii)' person who has a knowledge
ot a (hip, may pow form An idea of wh ,t
affifhr.ee a vessel, under tbefe < itrcurcftances,
eould afford to a city and forts about to be
attacked by fifteen . hundred men. which
was the number of tlje French exclusive of
the negroes who joined them- All the af
fifiance therefore the iingiifli could or did
give, previous to the Pat;pl'co entering th(K
h3rb<\i'' ot Amlterdam, whs by lending
from the one lieutenant and five
men, who took pofflffiou of what they
called a bakery, which confided ofonebrafs
. eighteen pound cannon. This paltry fuc
| tour, as may be supposed, was not tli
flightefl impediment to the operations of
j the French. After the meeting of the
. commanders, it was concluded as ahfo
lutely jicceir.ry for one of the fliips of
l.war to enter the harbour to aft as a
floating battery to prevent the French ,
tri;m attacking Amsterdam ; to this fer
vite the Patapfco was dediiied. She accor
dingly entered the harbour on the evening of
the 2id Sept. Ihe French immed ately ci nH
meuced a heavy fire from their battery on
the well lide of the town from IVveral field
pieces charged with muflket balls, which were
placed on a wharf within fifty yards ot
where the (hip hd to pass. They -„ifo com
menced a heavy fire of mufltetry from the
rools and windows of thft houfrs. The
number of musketry was no: knpwn, but
from the quicknels of the fire, there mull
i have ben lcveral hundreds. The firrfron»
the (hip dismounted two of the field pieces,
and compiled the Franch to abandon that
part ot the town fronting the harbour.
'i he French now ejtge£\>*4 that tlw otlier
two (hips ot war in the offiiig, meditated an
attack on their veffcls. The troops which
wtre intended to dorm Fort Mepublic, were
immediately recalled to the defence of the
I expe&ed att. ck of their (hipping. They
| were also imprefied with an idea of. the A'-
nierican (hips having troops on board ; and
| what On-ngthened their opinion was the
j. binding-in the morning, from the Patapl'co,
j an officer with 50 of the crew, to take pos
session of one ol the forts in which wa< the
! principal partol the wiilitary (tores. Incon
(v-quence of this cKferabarkation of the A
mtrican crew, they del'paired of «»?r taking
the Island, and immediately prepared for fr
curing the plunder (,n board their veflels, and
a departure. They accordingly abandoned
the island unperceivrd by the other (liips.
7 he landing oftlie American crew-I con
sider as one of the [trended proofs of the j
cr tc I situation of the island. It was done
by the requrlt of the Dutch Governor,- who
had not fufficient confidence in his troops t®
trust them with the magazines in this f jrt
which the Americans had poffedion of, and
in wfetch was drpc.fited the powder.
On the 24th, the B'itiih colours were
hoisted at the forts, and at the fame time
the Englilh frigate entered the harbour, and
took pofleffion of the island.
I hope, Sir, by this time you will be able
to torm an idea whether the American (hip
was not tlje cause ot die French leaving the
Island, and the sole cause of the Britilh gt{-
I ting pofieffion. I find by your paper of Sa
! tnrday,-that the Englilh have made the me
j derate demand of 25 per cent, on the Ame
rican property at Curraoa, when this Ame
rican property was laved at the ri(k of the
I<ves of the officers ai d crew of the Ameri
can Ihip of war. I, however, flatter myfelf
that our Government will duly notice this
act on the part of the BiitiHi, in return tor
the important C-rvices rendered to them by I
the Americans.
N. B. When due time will permit, you
may expert to hear from me lomething more
on thia fubjedt.

political writer,
