Mr. Madison must hasten to ratify the Treaty of Peace. The tide of fortune has now set as strongly against liitu at sea, as it lately did on land, and the last trophies of the naval war will remain in the hands of those, from whom, the Ante. ricans falsely boasted, they had wrested the Imperial Tiident. The capture of one of the best ships of war, commanded by the ablest Officer in the American service, Commodole Decatur, has added another laurel to our naval fame. The Picton schooner arrived on Friday at Portsmouth in 22 dais, from Boston, with dispatches, announcing the above welcome intelligence. The President sailed from New York on a cruise, and was next day chased by a squadron of his Majes ty's ships, but by means of cutting away her anchors, and throwing overboard her stores and provisions, she was enabled to make so much way, that only the Endymion, of 40 guns, Captain Henry Hope, could overtake her about five in tile evening. The Endymion immediately brought her to close action, yard-arm and yard-arm. We were inferior (see the subsequent statement) in number of men, tonnage, guns, and weight of metal. The conflict lasted from half-past five to eight, when on the Pomone's coming up, and filing a shot or two, Commodore Decatur bailed to say he bad already. surrendered. The glory of the capture, therefore, is all the Endymion's. No Officer was killed. The Endyinion and her prize are stated to have proceeded for Bermuda. The following is a correct statement of the respective force of the President and Endyrnion:-- PRESIDENT. 34 24-ponnder gun..
