It is with extreme mortification that I have to acquaint you with the Loss of His Majesty's Gun. Brig Conflia ; for in a few minute., after you hailed me, desiring me to keep as close as possible to the Praam, she grounded : the man in the 'starboard chains having two fathoms, hut having the three foremost breechings at that time carried away, I had stepped forward to hurry them in fitting others, when the pilot quitted his post at the helm and went below ; my first care was engaging the Praam, which was passing inside of us, and as soon as she passed I started all the w Ater, and threw every thing overboard that was pradic - able to lighten her, but finding she sued very fabt, having only four feet alongside, and another Praam coming up fast on the outer side of us, I judged it most adviscable to hoist the Boats out and save the people, as just at that time seeing the Cruizer's Lights, and thinking that if I did not catch her immediately, the whale of the people would he sacrificed, as the boats Would he too crowded to get any distance, and I had hopes that when the flood made, I might, with the assistance I might get from the Squisdron , _ he en_ abled to get h er off; I am sorry the result has been so very Contrary to my hopes and wishes. Lieute. rant Forbes, I presurne, has acquainted you with tie particulars. Our Loss in the evening was one man badly wounded, ace slightly ; in the night one and three wounded.

We are' sneeringly told by the Opposition Wri. tell, that our captute of the Spanish Frigates will give BONAPARTE an opportunity of amusing the people of Europe with " a new Treatise on the Law of Nations," and that " it completely relieves him from - the danger of Continental Alliances, found e d upon any liberal' and enlightened views of the IL_ betty and independence of Nations."—When it shall be found that BO NAPARTII ever pays any af, tension to the Laws of Nations, or any other Laws, or that he titer designed to. form Continental Al. lances upon liberal and enlightened principles, it may be time enough to attend to his ()pinions and conclutt respefling our capture of the Spanish Frigates ; but till it can he proved that Spain has a right to supply our Enemy with the sinews of war, and to arm in his defence, 'we may justify our seizure of those ves. sels upon every principle of national right, as well As of prudence, ;mice, and honour. :The fad is notorious, that Spain was arming, - and that she did not give a satisladory answer to the inquiries of the British Government. The forbearance of our Government, therefore, when it might tend to aug. ment the naval force of our deadly Foe, would have been a contemptible weakness and a derelittion of duty.
