Extract of a letter from Rear-Admiral Cockburn to the Right HIM. Admiral Sir J. B. %Varre•n, Bart. K. IL and transmitted by the Admiral to J. W. Croker E.q. His Majesty's Ship Sceptre, off Ocracoke Bar, July 12. Rear-Admiral Cockburn states, that lie took up the anchorage off Ocracoke liar, with the ships named in the margin'', having on boal : d the detachments of troops under the milers of Lieut. Col. Napier, on the nth July ; and conceiving that much advantage waa likely to he derived by carrying into immediate execution the orders he had received, for putting an end to the commerce carried on from the the port of Ocracoke by means of the inland navigation, and for destroying any vessel , that might be iii the port, he di rected preparations to be instantly commenced for the debarkation of the troops, and for making the intended attack. Au advanced division of the best pulling !soaks, with armed se - elle:1 and same marines of the Sceptre, was directed to precede the others, for the purpose of attacking the enemy's %Kipping, and of oceopyi.ig and (levelling the firs' of any armed vessels stationed at the place ; Lieutenant Westphall, First of the Sceptre, was entrusted with this (*vision, supported by Capt. Russ, with the roc ket-boats. C4.pt. Patterson, of the Fox, commanded the division of flat and heavier boats with as many of the 102(1 . regiment, artillery, &c. as they could carry, which were destined to ;mark and occupy such positions on the surrounding lands, as circumstances and the enemy's means of defence might point out the propriety of after day-light. The third and last division was composed of the Conflict, the armed tender , , and small vessels, which were directed to take the remainder of the troops on board, and to follow the boats into the harbour, as fast and as tar as might be found practicable : Captain Ross of this ship was charged with the general soperinteildance of the whole arrangement, and Captains Knight and Maude, with much laudable zeal, also attended to render me their personal assistance wherever circumstances might require i:. The whole moved from the ships towards the shore about two o'clock this morning, but owing to the great'distance from the bar to the harbour, anti the belt , / swell which was rmining, it was considerably after day-light, 'before the advanced division tinned a projecting shoal point, behind which the vessels lay, and round which is the only possible wiy by which the shore can'be approach ed %rill& safety; the enemy, theretiire, had some little time to pre pare for defence, which he did not fail to avail himself of, and immediately the boats doubled the point, a heavy fire was opened on them from a brig anti schooner, which hoisted American colours. and were soon discovered to be the only aimed ves , els here ; Lieut. Westphall, theretOre, with his division, pulled dicectly and re solu-tely for these, under eover of some'r:ckets, which hew thrown by Capt. Russel with admirable precision. The fire of the brig now began to slacken ; and cu Mr. 'ONAL 11-E0 b 3.9 Westphali's apprwhing her bow with the advanced boats, *hit enemy rut her catle and abatxioned her, and the schooner *truck hot culotte..
