Lying-to, under the guns of Sr. Cruz (Cornso I),
at four p. xs. I saw an armed schooner standing in
from seat as soon as she was hull out I made sail,
and aft-r a hard chace, the frigate running ele►en
knots under her royals and top-gallant studding sails,
at nine p. w. captured the Dutch schooner Nimrod,
mounting 4 4-pounders, copper bottomed and fasten-
ed, and but '2 years old ; she is the fastest vessel I have
wet with since I have been is the %Veit Indies, and
'was one of the two schooners that engaged the Fly-
ing Fish, having then on board fifty melt.
I sm, &C. ZACHARY 141.:DC F..
