• The New York Advertiser, of the 12th of July,
gives a letter from Savannah, dated Jane 25, which
states, that the Brig Eliza, Capt. WIIELDON, from
Fhiladelphia, was boarded on the t gth, within sight of
Charlestown, by-a Lieutenant and some men belong-
ing to La Julie, a French Schooner Privateer, mount-
ing 1 0 guns. The hatches are said to have been broken
open, and the Brig robbed (that is the word in the let-
ter) of two bkrels of salt pork and one barrel of butter.
.The FrenCh Captain is said to have given an order
on a Mr. MAY, for the payment of the supposed
value of the goods. He says,
Mr. NiAy,

Please to pay the Bearer 36 dollars- for two barrels of salt
provisions furnished for the use of YOT:it Vessel, and eight
dollars for one barrel of salt butter taken from the Captain's
stores. I have the Honour to salute you,

ANTOINE BISHIY.
The Countess of Elgin Cutter, commanded by
Lieut. BROWN, in returning to Ramsgate, from at-
tending Lord KEITH to the Sussex Coast, fell in
with :large French Lugger, three times her force
and strength. After a spirited a6lion of an hour and
a half, she made the Frenchman 'sheer off with great
slaughter, and the loss of two prisoners taken in an
attempt to board the Countess of Elgin. We are
sorry to say that the brave Lieut. BROWN was badly
wounded in his hand, and that the Master, Mr.
RUTTER, we are afraid..will .los9 his leg.• Four of
our brave fellows are grounded, two of whom are
since dead.

Diana galley ; and after one of ihe severest contests
. ever remembered on the River Thames •:(rowing-
nearly- stem and Stern the whole way), was won by
. the former by about two boats lengths. The River
was crowded with genteel company, and the match
gave general satisfaaion. •
