D. A. Capt. Surcouf, commander of the corsair I'Emi lie, perceiviug that his veflel had loft her fuperion ty of failing, resolved to quit her and 10 arm the schooner le Kartier, which he had taken on the arms of Bengal, being a remarkable good sailer.—- : He fitted out this schooner .with some small cannon, and nnt nn of His. cicut-iJeaxiniJ-- L' Rmilie, on the 23d of January, under the command of Ci tizen Croizet, to make his way for the Isle 01 France. On the 28th iii the evening he perceived a ship for which he immediately made fail and boarded her daring the night ; this was the Diana, Captain Thompson, coining from Bengal. The next day, the 22th, in the morning, le Kartier 'perceived to the windward another (hip, to which he gave chace, and come up with her about 8 o'clock. This (hip feeing a schooner approach her, took it te be a pi lot boat, from the Ganges, lay to, hoilled her co lours and fired a gun. 'Surcouf got to the wind ward, and notwithstanding the superiority of the enemy wiiich he had before him, after having been aflured of the good difpofitiou and courage of his crew, he refolved'to take pofleffion of her or peri(h in the attempt. Arrived within piltol (hot he fired three rounds with his camion, and caused all his mufquetry to fire upon the vefiel, and without wai ting longer, boarded the Englifhmin with 17 of his crew, and after a combat of an hour and a half on board the veflel, Capt. Surcouf became mailer of his prize. T This veflel is the Triton, belonging to the Eti glifti East India Company ; (he had touched at Madras, where (he left a part of her cargo, and was on her rout for Bengal. The French had one man killed and arjother wounded, but the latter is out of danger. The Triton had 8 men killed, among whom was Capt. Burnyhcat, the commandant of the artillery, and many wounded. All the prisoners were put, for the moment, on board the Kartier, under the guard of three men only, until the Diana came up, which Surcouf had ransomed for 30,000 rupees, and on board of which he put all his prisoners, after hav ing drawn up an engagement that they (hould not serve against France or her allies, until they had been legally exchanged.
