ESCAPED.

" Extract of•• Letter from St. Thomas's, dated
September 18 (via Norfolk), received this morning:
•° I hasten to communicute to you that informa-
tion has just reached us. that the crew of the French
frigate Anon, when off the island of Ascension.
-headed by several of the officers, ruse upon the
'Captain and confined him below. They immedi-
ately proceeded to St. Helena, and arrived when
the 74, with the sloop of war and guard-ships, were
cruising at some distance from the island. The
Jansen having the British colours flying, was mis-
taken for an F.uglisli frigate, and permitted to
anchor on the lift of the water batteries. flaring
abosen an excellent position for rating the two
lower batteries, she commenced 3111 enfilading fire,
which being as sudden as unexpected, did immense
et/notion. and threw the garrison into confusion.
Before troops were stationed and order restored,
it was visible float the frigate that several officers
of the garrison were killed or wounded, all which
increased the confusion arising from the sudden
attack.

" Napoleon not h:tving been deceived as to the
character of the frigate when at a considerable dis-
tance (it beiug the same in which he sailed in from
Egypl), and confirmed in the opinion by the Com-
mander, made the best vise of hi. time. He induced
one of the guards to accompany him. Ia a soldier's
'uniform he paysed the goard.hunw, reached the shore,:
