From TWE LONDON GAZgTTE, MARCH 5. timiralty-Gyiec, .11f arch 6, 1814: 'Copy of a. Letter from Admiral Lord KEITH, K. B. to J earl Wit.soN . Cicolmn., - Dig. dated on board leis Majesty's ship York, in Camsand Bay, the 2d inst. SIR—I have the honour to inclose, for the iir forutation of .the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty, a copy of a letter from Capt. Philli more, reporting the capture of La Clurinde French frigate, after a most severe conflict, on the evening of the, 25th tilt. between her and the Eurotas an action which reflects tint highest honour upon the, bravery and professional skill of. Capt. Philliinore and his officers, and upon the valour and good conduct of his crew. Capt. has been severely wounded on the oc casion, but I entertain a flattering hope that his Pilliesty's service, and the country at large, will tint lotiebe deri - ved of the services of NO valuable an officer. have' the honour to he, &c. - KEITH, Admiral. Ilis ;M a jesty's ship Eurotas, Plymouth Sonnet, March t• MY Loab,-1 have. the honour to . inform your, Lordship,' that his Atijety's ship under my pun . tumid, parted contpany from the Rippon on Mon : ' 'Flay night, the 21st nit, in chase of a vessel which proved to .be a Swedish merchant ship, and on Friday the 25th, in 'endeavouring to rejoin the ippon, being then lute.. 47.40. north, and long. 9. 30. west, we perceived a sail upon the lee-beam, to which we gave chase. We soon.discovered her to be ati enemy's frigate, and tbat'she was enilea ;:rvouring-.to out manceuvre us in .bringing her to action ; but having much the advantage in sailing„ (although the wind had unfortunately died away) v i ve were, enabled at ,about' five o'Clock tq pass under het stern, hail her, and commence close IVhen receiving her broadside, and pass im; to her bow, our wizen-mast was shot away. I then ordered the helm to be put down to lay her ,aboard, but the wreck of our wizen-mast lying on our quarter, prevented this desirable object from being accomplished. • s.ctien: The eaemy just passed clear of us, and both officers'and men of the Enrotas renewed the ac tion with the most determined bravery and reso lution, while the enemy re: tuned our tire in a warm and gallant 'manner. • We snceeeded in rak ing her ag;lin, and then lay broadside to broadside ; at 6, 20. our main-mast fell by the board, the ene my's mizen, mast falling at the same time ; at 6,- 50. our fore-mast fell, and the enemy's main-mast almost -immediately afterwards. At ten minutes after 7, she slackened her tire, but having her fore mast standing, she succeeded .withlier, foresail in' getting out of range. ,During the whole of the action we kept up a heavy and well-directed fire ; rot do I know. which most to admire, the seamen at the great guns, 'hr the marines with their small arkps, they vying with each other, who should most annoy the enemy. I was at this time so much exhausted by toss of blood, from the wounds I had received in the early part of the action from a grape shot, that I found it impossible for me to remain anylonger upon deck. I was therefore under the painful ne 7 cessity 'of desiring Lieut. Stnith ‘ (First Lieutenant) to take the command of the quarter-deck, and to clear the wreck of the foremast and mainmast, which then lay nearly fore and aft the deck, and to make sail after thc enemy; but, at -the same time, I had the satisfaction of reflecting that, I bad left the command in the hands of an active and zealous, officer. tir e kept sight of the enemy during the night, by means of boats, sails, and a.jigger on the en sign St.,afT ; and before twelve o'clock the next day; Lieutenant Smith reported to me, that by the great -exertion of every 'officer and man, jury courses, top-sails, s:ay-sails, and spanker, were set in chase of the enemy, who had not even cleared away bis i wreck, and that we were com ing np.with her very fast, going at the rate of six and a halt knots thatthe decks were perfectly clear, and that-the officers and men were as eager to renew the. action as they were to commence it ; hut to the great mortification of every one on board, we perceived two, sail on - the lee bqw, which proved to be the Driad , and 4ch . ates, and 'they-having crossed the enemy (we otily, four miles distant) before we could get sip to her, deprived its of the gratification of having her colours hauled. down to us-. , T,he enemy's frigate proved to be the Clorinde, Captain Dennis Legard, mounting 44 guns, with four brass swivels on each top,_ and a complement of 360 picked men. kis with sincere regret I have to state that our loss is considtrable, baying 20 killed' and 40 wounded ; and I most• sincerely lament the loss Of three tine young midshipmen,; two of whom bad served the whole of their time with me, and. ‘v*ho all yrotnised to be ornaments to the service. Among the wounded is Lieutenant Foord, of the Royal Marines, who received a grape-shot in his gallanth' heading- his party. 1 learn from . Monsieur Gerrard, one of Ae Trench oftieeTrs,' that they calctilate their loss on board the Clorinde at 120 men! It is therefore _unnecessary for nie to particul ar i se the exer ti ons _ or every individual on hoard this ship, on the promptness with •Nyl4l) every order was put into ekeedtion by so young a ship's company ; but 1 must beg leave so mention the able assistance whieb receiveii from Liewenants Smith, Graves, 'Randolph, and lleckhani, Mr. Beaduell, the Mas ter, and Lieutenant Foord and Council, of, the Royal Marir.es ; the vory great skill and' attention shewu by Mr. Thomas Cooke Jones, Surgeon, in the discharge of ins important ; the active serti'ices of Mr. J.
