mendous fire from the torts, vessels, and the shore,
the beach being lined with field-pieces and mus-
qiietty, the feluccas keeping up a heavy fire until

resistance, and quitted them. Notwithstanding
such a heavy fire, they succeeed in bringing nut

unbent, they were obliged to be towed out, which
detained them sill near four o'clock ; the whole of

Information having been given me of a t.umbor
of small vessels having been seen at Batabano, some
of which I had reason to belies e might be privateers.
a number of them occasionally making that place
and Trinidad their rendezvous, I dispatched, on the
23th of August, the vessels named in the margins,
to bring them out, or destroy them with their boats,
if it appeared prafticalde, witis little risk. On the
I Oth instant, the Stork arrived with the pleasing in-
telligence of their having cut out, and destroyed, six
tura ed vessels (one of wh;sh was a French privateer.
of /our guns.) and six coasting vessels; also, that
the Pike, of four guns, had captured a Spanish
schooner, of ten guns, and the Superieure, a Spa-

I therefore discard Captain I:usiiworth (to whose
aetivity and erertigns I feel highly indebted.) to pro-
ceed with the-Saperieure. and tw.s seooners, after
having reduced their draught of water as much as

I h ,ere the honour to acquaint you, after leaving
His Majesty's sloop Stork, on the of Auguq,
off the Isle of Pines, it took us to the 21 of thi
month to get off Point Giindas, d stance N W. 22
miles from Batabano, when I anchored with the
Flying-Fish and Pike sc'enoners; at mi.!night w.igh-
ed and stood for Batahano, to be off that place be-
tore break et day, but owing to hailing winds it took
us until daylight. I thrm;yht it rap dirot to land,
which 1 accordingly did. with IR men from the
Stnrk, 33 from the Superieure, and 10 from the
Flying-fish, to guard the boats; hut after landing
two miles to windward of the battery, the marshy
it regular gtound so impeded our march, and the
enemy perceiving it, sent a parry of soldiers to way-
lay us in the thick hushes; but the mo,t forward of
my party charged, and completely pat them to the
route after leaving two killed and one badly wound-
ed. At that period a general alarm had spread, the
Militia had joinel the stationary Regulars in the
frr,nt, aided by the mina from the shippin7 in the
Bay. Our retreat being then cut off, we were
obliged to rush forward to gain the fort, which I
am happy to say was completely carried in three
mirutes ; the enemy retreated in all dweS;ons, after
fit ing two guns and a volley of small arms, towards
the path we were obliged to pass. The,- artery con-
sisted of sir long le-pounders, mounted on travel-
ling carriages, which we spiked, and then proceed-
ed to take possessi-n of the vessels, which consisted
of ore felucca. pierced for 14 guns, luring one

pierced lot 12; a French privateer of four, and
three other Spanish vessels, with one gen each ;
six other smaller, with cargoes, which were sair-d,
and the vessels burnt. not having sufficient men
to carry them nut. The next morning came off

considerable. I -am happy to add, we hid only one
