On the 17th, Motiftear Looms had feized on fame " country boats off Maffulipatamiltoad, who gave him the intelligence of his Majelly's (hip WILHELMIN• baying left that road a few days before for Vizaga: ?nem Road, with the Princers Charlotte -Indianan an convoy, and accordingly he dafited into that road in the forenoon of the 18th, and commenced a fit• Timis attack with the Marengo and frigates on his Majefty's Bap the CENTURION, (of so guns) whom I had a few days before lubllituted tier the Wica et.- Nana, haying ordered the latter to proceed to Cal cutta with the Bengal and Afia Indiaman, who had Tome treafure on board.

For my own part I do not he- Sate to rank this btilliant anion with the moll fa mous of the defeafive kind recto ded in the glorious annals of the &kith Navy. His Majesty's fhip CIOrrVITOW. In Vicappatam- Ro2d, sevenths 19, tBo4. Sir—Yefterday morning, while at anchor in this Roadited, and waiting till the Indiaman, the Princefs Charlotte, and the country Chip the Barnaby, the two (hips you direfted me to convoy to Madras, - were loaded, thr ee fhips were perceived und e r t h e land in the fouth wel), coming down before the wind, with all fail fet. About halt pal nine A. M. it was ken that the grange fliips were enemies, and were a line of battle (tip , and two frigates; the line of b a t• tk (hip hoilted, with her colours, a flag at the miaen topmaft-head; iind I believe was die Marengo, Ad miral Limos, and I (hall In call her in this Fetter.— The frigate appeared to be of thirty.fit or forty guns. For She Information of the convoy the fignal of an enemy being in fight was h. Med, and fon° afterwards one for the convoy, as they were bell able to put into a port in view. This was done that the nisi !hips drat we had taken under convey might get chte isr (bore foe proteaion, or, if neceffary, to be rna on it : the Barnaby complied with this fignal ; the ran in (bore, but unfortunately afterwards gut into the furl, and was totally 1011. About ten A. M. the headmoll of the enemy's thecae, a frigate, was about half a mile from the Csarverov, without any colours flying. Several Blot were fired at her. About the fame time the cable was cut, and topfails finned home, which were already look for the purpofe; by this means the broadfide was brought to bear Upon the enemy, and prevented the fhip being boarded or raked ; by this wraneenne, likewife, a frigate, that was within a eables length of the Cenrultiost, and appeared to have an intention to bond, got a dole arid well-di rated broadfide into her : the anion loon became general ; the three enemy's Chips dirthing their fire, on the Cseruaroa, their only objeCt, for the Prin ters Charlotte Indiaman had very early (truck her colours. The CENTURION flood in Rare, the Ma. reap and one frigate on the (larboard quarter, the other frigate on the larboard; they were all lets than half a mile diftant, and kept firing, which the'CITI - Tuition returned. Her fire was chiefly direited againft the hfarengc. About a quarter before , eleven the French !hips flood to Tea ; and immediately after this I got on board, though with much difficulty and danger. I bad been on More to expedite the failing of the convoy, and was not preknt in this cprly part of the anion , for, till now, the CENTURION had been wider the dirthion of Lieut. ja ars s Rosser Pita Lairs, the Firli Lieutenant ; and, being I proceed any far ther in this anion, permit me to notice the judicious outdo& of this defer/ring and old officer, and his gal lant defence of the Mist againft fo fupevior force as that of the enemy. I hope, Sir, his conduit will be thought worthy of a reward, and that be will be 'teemed deferving of promotion. On my coming on board I found the fails and rigging fo very much cut as to render the (hip not in a (late to be worked, and therefore anchored at the back of the furf, about a mile and a half to the north tail of the town ; this &union was the heft I had in my power to take, both for defence, and to prevent her falling into the poffefflon of the enemy if overpowered. - A battery of three guns at the town, under the command of Colonel CAMPBELL, of his Majefiy's 74111 regiment, had kept a fire on the enemy whilß within reach in the Roadlled, but now we were too far diftant to receive any fupport from it.— I tent on (bore to requell guns might be brought on the beach nearer as ; this 9 / 1 6 a thing, I have been fence convirced of, totally impraaicable, or it would have been done. We prepared again for anion ; ar.l, whillt thus employed, the enemy, in the offing, wore and flood towards us ; the Marengo, after having repeatedly tticd the range of ha. gun., came to an anchor ahreaft of us, and about a mile GRant r clewed up her top fails, furled her entitles, and commenced cannonading. This thieatening pearance of being determined to perrevere and to fucceed, only ferved to animate the officers and men of his Majefty's (tip to greater exertions of defence with the lower deck guns, the only ones that would roach the enemy, for the was too far ditlant for the tarronacks, but all the enemy's (hot reached us. In the mean time one of the frigates kept under fail on our quarter, and nearer than the Marengo, and an noyed us much by her fire ; the other frigate car ried of the Indiaman from her anchorage in the road. At a quarter pall one P. M. nearly two hours after this cantsonading had commenced, and which had been kept up with vigour on both fides, the Ma rengo cut her cable, !wilted her jib, and flood to lea. By tome of her lag (hot our cable was cot, and we made Come fail, and got further off Sore before we brought up with the (feet anchor. When the Ma- Tango firß made fail I fuppofed fhe intended to make a Sort firetch, tack, and renew the anion nearer, sa d s.mads all secetrary preparations to receive her, • , • • • but the, fligatel d prize Indianian, Rood to Cm; and a little hefty • fun f‘t bore up to the north ma, toward, the hot am of the bay. What-damage the enemy has (uflained, 'or from what caufe they: de clined further cmitefl u ith us I cannot tell. - After this full account of the tranfaelinns of the day, I feel it a duty incumbent on me• not only to repeat the high fenfe I liave 'of Lieutenant Pamirs', Cervices, but likenife to inform you that the oth e r Lieutenants ofthis flip, Lieutenants Davin PILIWOL RICHARD COOT!, and Wtt.LlAtt FAMIIAOTHIII CAI- Ant., difplayed great gAllantry and fpirit on the cc cafion ; the hall mentioned, Lieutenant CARROL 4 1110' a young officer, has fern much fervice, and as his comndtion of Lieutenant is not yet confirmed by my Lords Cammiffinners of the Admiralty, may I re- quest that yao will he pleafed to reprefent his great merit. to induce their Lordthips to do it.
