CUXJIAVFN Jtu.v B.—A frigate, four brigs, and nine English gun-
boats attackc:l4s this eveningabout six o'clock ; this fresh attempt
of the enemy turned to his shame. He appeared to wish to interrupt
our works, and undoubtedly hoped to destroy them. Favoured by
a good wind, the English flotilla approached within pistol-shot of us,
and during three successive hours, sent a Shower of bullets, balls
and grape-shot among us ; but all this violent fire only wounded a
single man. _ _

The damage caused to one of our batteries can easily be repaired
in two days.

We were covered by banks, and set death into the enemy's ships,
whilst all their tile passed over onr heads.
All requisite measures had been taken to vigorously receive the
enemy, had he attempted a disembarkation ; but he retired, after
having been very roughly handled, and without having lauded a
single man.
