Account of a most gallant A'ction bet - .v'een the • merchant ship Hibernia, of London, Captain JOHN LENNON, with six guns and twenty-two men and boys, and the Comet American priva teer, of fourteen guns and one hundred and twenty-five ?nen. " ST. THOMAS'S, JAN. 27, •1814.-,-Captain CRABTREE, of the brig Wasp, arrived here the 10th inst. from London. He states, that be fell in With, a privateer, to the 'Westward of Saba, ,On the 9th inst. but supposing the Wasp to be a man of war, made sail from her, upon being chased. 'this privateer has for some time past been erniz ing td r intercept the outward.-bound ships for this litid St. Croix, and would no doubt have done much mischief, but for the very gallant con duct of Captain LENNON and his ship's company. The Hibe'rnia fell in with her on the lith, having only 22 men and boys on board, and 6 guns. The privateer, we learn from Porto Rico, where,she is now refitting, is the Comet, of Baltimore, Capt. BOYLE, mounting 14 twelve-pounders', and 125 men. Against this very superior force, Captain , LENNON and his little crew defended the Hibernia for nine hours, the greatest part of which time the two vessels.were on board of each other. The situation of the Hibernia, when she came into port, sheaved the effects of the tremendous fire which the enemy must have, kept up ;—not a sail which was bent escaped the enemy's shot, and her spars and rigging are , much destroyed. Out of the small complement of twenty-two, one man was killed and eleven wounded ; the latter, I ala happy to say, are all doing well. Too much praise cannot be given to Captain LENNON for hi 5 conduct during this arduous undertaking. At the latter part of the action he had.only two or three men left besides himself at the guns. He has for tunately.escaped, 'but has received several contu sions, and had two musket balls shot through - his hat. The Captain 'of the Comet acknowl e dges having bad three men killed and eleven wounded, but it is generally supposed he must have lost more.

" We have bad for these last four months the worst of weather; and the right of the army, front its advanced positions since the beginning of December, must have suffered sonic priva tions. The communicatimi to it, after quitting the high road at Bidart, is entirely by ero,s roads over a . clay soil, touch intersected by rivulets and it would be difficult to give you an idea of the state ; of these roads, constantly trodden by mules and, every other species of tramnort that has been employed for the supply of the army 5 but as we neVer were healthier than now, we may fairly conclude that good arrangements have overcome the greatest difficulties. In 1812 the array had no tents ; there wag one mule belong ing to every company, to carry its camp kettles, „which were then very large, and heavy. In 1813 smaller kettles' (one to: six men), were substitut ed to be carried by the men in turns, and these mules Were apprriated to carrying tents for them ; thUs by a most simple and masterly ar rangement, the whole army was piit under canvas without any additional transport or expense ; and since the middle of December, all except those regiments on outpost duty; have been in canton ments. With respect to the cordiality between tbearmy and the inhabitants, I believe there can. be nothing more sin Sere 5 I certainly have beard of two instances of foraging parties being inter-' rupted, but this constantly happened both in Spain and Portugal, and arises from the nature of 'the duty, and not, I am sure, from any hostile tlisposition in the peasantry. The country which. . we occupy is every where thickly inhabited; agri cultural pursuits are going on, the markets in the towns are' plentifa;ly supplied, and there is throughout every decisive sign of perfet confi dence and amity.—Their attention and civility to the English are very great.; and I am sure that they persmidethemselves that peace will never be made with Btronapartc.—When the Duke D'An .gouleme went firSt to mass, 1 am'told that every pan of the church was thronged in such a manner as had never before been seen. 'I asked a, - ; Abbe who the Duke was, - &c. and he detailed to me his connection with Laois XVI. with as much in terest and accuracy as an'Englisliman would give an account 6f any branCh of our Royal Family. The Bourbons are not forgotten ill France, and the present times have given a Wallll, and lively glow to the recollection of them." • The brigad.of Foot Guards having received, a very considerable augmentation from the ;Militia, the three regiurents now consist of 8000 men and. up . ,vards—a-very high' establishment for this ex pensive body of troops.
