carronades, two brigs, from 16 to 13 guns, mounting 24-pound
carronades, with three tenders, all under the command of
Com. Sir W. H. Pr o.acEv. The Land Forces of the Enemy

Nt-
criot,ts, 300 Indians, andcr the-command of Capt WoonetNe

the direction of a British Captain of Royal Artillery. Our.
effective force opposed to the enemy was about 120 men, of
whom not more than 90 were engaged.

"The leading ship called the Hermes, Commodore Sir ,W.
11. PIERCY, having approached within reach of our gnus, our
battery opened upon her; the guns of which were fired in
succession as they could be brought to bear; and at 20 mi-
nutes after 4r. m. the engagement became general. About
this time The enemy on shore, with
,Colonel NICUOLLS at the
headatf the marines. Captain , WOODIHNE, at the head of
their allies the Indians, and the Captain,of the British Artil-
lery, with hie battery, Were put to. fight, by two discharges
f grape and canister from a 9-pounder. At 5 r. sa. the
Commodore.; ship swung head on, to our battery, when we
were enabled to rake her so effectually as to silence herguns.
Ilaeing cut her cable by, our shot, she drifted ont and •
grounded stern on, within 700 yards, which again afforded
us an opportunity of raking her, and we continued doing so-
while there was light to see that her colours were flying ;.just
about sun-set the-other vessels cut their cables and stood off
with a Tight breeze; under a tremendous fire from our battery:
" At a qua.rter past 7, we discovered the Commander's ship
to he on fire, and at i 0 P. fit. her Magazine blew up.
6, We cannot ascertain the precise, loss of the enemy, but
from deserters who came in, the morning after the battle, we
learnlhat the Commander and only 20 men f scaped from the
Hermes—her crew originally 170 ; that 85 were killed and
wounded on board the Charon. Our lois was four killed and
five wounded.
.During the hottest part of the action, our
flag-staff being shut away, the flag was immediately regained
under a heavy fireof grape and canister, hoisted on -a sponge
staff, and planted on a 'parapet.
" This achievement of our brothers in arms is dear to us,
and calls for and will have the gratitude of a grateful 'coup
! Our arms Ittve triumphed over the enemy.. The brave
Officers, non-commissioned Officers and privates, under the
command of the gallant ,Major Lawrence have done their
duty, and in point of cool and determined courage, their con-
duct cannot he surpassed. There, was but one feeling per-
vading every grade and rank throughout the whole action,
and that was, who should he foremost in the race of glory ;
with them the post of danger was the post of honour.
