Charlestown, March 31.
"YESTERDAY arrived his Majesty's frigate Charlef
town, Captain Evans, from Chefapeak Bay.
The French Admiral, with all his ships .and. two,thoufand
troops on board, stole out of Rhode-Bland the 9th instant,
and directed his course for Virginia. On the 16th the French
fleet brought to, about 15 leagues to the eastward of Cape
Henry, to wait the return of a frigate sent to reconnoitre
the Chefapeak. The French Admiral had not stolen away so
flily, as to elude the vigilance of Admiral Arbuthnot. Our
fleet was prevented failing by unfavourable winds and weather
till the 12th. At day-light on the 16th, the Iris made the
signal for the enemy. The weather was very hazy, and the
wind frefh. From 6 in the morning till 2 in the afternoon,
the French Admiral kept aloof, manoeuvring the time away,
when he wore and formed his line to leeward of our fleet.
Captain Colby, in the most gallant and officer-like manner, led
into action at 2 o'clock ; the van and center were Toon after
engaged, and about 3 the French line was broken ; when the
French Admiral made the signal to wear, and about 4 o'clock,
in very thick, squally weather, the whole of his fleet made
fail to the S. E. with all they could carry.
.The Robufte, Prudent and Europe, were so disabled in
,their rigging, that they could not make fail after the enemy's
fleet. Admiral Arbuthnot arrived in Lynhaven Bay the next
evening.
It is said that a French ship struck to the Robufte, and an
other to the Prudent. Certain it is, they ceased firing, and
had no colours flying, when they wore.
The damage sustained by the French ships, by every obser
vation that could be made, was very considerable ; and the
carnage from the numbers on board, must have been very
great. It is matter of doubt if they will be able to make any
port on the continent.
The immediate consequences of this action are of the most
important nature. The plan of operations of the French and
Rebels is entirely deranged, and the junction of the 2000
French troops to the Rebel army in Virginia, is effectually
prevented.
