COPY OF A LETTER PROM AN OFFCER BELONGING
TO MS MAJESTY'S SLOOP BRITOMART, DATED
NOV. 14 :

I wrote you the 16th September, sinee'which we have
been cruising off the Texel, watching the motions of the ene-
my's fleet. On Friday, October Rt 2, the wind shifting from
the northward and westward to the east, we anchored in the
Britomart close in shore, within three or four miles of Kyk-
down, the fleet in the Teed bearing E.N.E. with the inten-
tion that should the enemy get under weigh during the night,
we should discover his movements. On • Sunday the 114th,
about eights.. ai. the look-out man on the starboard-bow re-
lented two .strange sail on the starboard-beam, which
were found to be two large brigs, under easy sail he-
fore the wind, bearing down, upon us. We then beat to
quarters, Bleared for action, and made the private
night signal; about that time they were within pistol-
shut of us; we then cut the cable, and were immedi-
ately tinder. sail. When they observed us to be under can-
vass, they hauled to the wind on the larboard tack, and
we after them, opening at the same time our broadside of
round and grape. They were then within tai: of each others
about a cable's length to windward. As soon as we gave
them our broadside, observed them to make all sail from us :
we pursued them, and arta raoor 40 minutes chase, drove them
unties a battery of eighteen guns, a little to the south-
ward of Kykdown, where they anchored. From the hazy
weather, and darkness of the 'night, in so intricate a
passage as that between the Haak Sands and the shore, and
front the strength of the battery by which they were sheltvr•
ed, Capt. Riddell did not think it prudent to attack them at
their anchorage. We now laid the main-top sail to the
.mast, and in this situation watched their manceuvres till
daffy-light, when, to the great mortiAcation of oar gallant
little crew, observed them to get under weigh, with several
gun-boats, and anchor safe in. the.Texel. We conceive it
had been their intention, aided by the darkness of the night,
to have dropped elongsidu nod boarded us while at an-
chor; but I am happy to .ay their designs were frustrat-
ed ; and no doubt they expected to find us napping, and
not prepared to receive them; but in this they erre also
mistaken. The enemy had every adeantage possible, hating
the weather-gage, and both taken together, were more than
three times the force of the Britomatt ; they had at least 150
• men in each, while the llritomart mustered only 76. From
the darkness of the night toe. he rather surprised us, and wit
elese Alongside.: before we sli‘eovered. him, notwithstanding
when we opened our fire, both brigs 'made.sail from us. WS
.offered fairly : they would not accept.
" S. We returned to our former•anchorage the folloWing
day, and recovered our anchor and cable in sight of the ene-
my's fleet in the Titml.”

We have prepared our Readers for some time

to state, that this desirable event was on the
eve of taking place. It is now. dinned

WELLINGTON. Some malevolent bpirits iii Spain,
as in Ireland and England, have been busy in
their endeavour to sow Dissensions between the
Countries) and to malign our Hero, upon which
subject we have extracted, in a preceding Cohim,
a very satUfactory article from the ConcisO of the
30th September..

The Morning Chronicle, which since the defeat
Of. Leipzig has been from day to day telling us -
how BUONAPARTE might raise money, and that
13uoNArAnTe would procure the men he want.-
ed, hits- this day Carried its specislationi. one
step further, and assured us, on the authority
of private letters' from Paris, that the • Tyrant,
whom it calls " the French Government,"
" had completely succeeded in procuring a
forced Loan of J6'2.1,000,000 Sterling," which
" is said to be distributed over all the classes of the
community; and the burthen of it is said to be so
widely diffused, that the money will be produced."
What then does this Driveller mean by " cum-
plcte success P" That BUONAPARTI: and his Tools
have obtained their own consent to the Loan !
This is all, for he afterwards says,—" We conceive
'it to be physically impossible that such a sum can
be extracted from the monied men of France,
under the name of loan or property tax, either by
force or ingenuity."
!laving thus refuted his own mis-statement, he
adds,—" The same letters confirm the account
" of the perfect success of the Conscription."—
Meaning thereby, we have no doubt, precisely
the same •kind of " perfect success " which was
" Complete success" in the. Loan, namely, that
BUONAPAIITE bad ilemanded what the Country
could not produce.

But will they come.?

Of a piece with this insane kind of scribbling
is the foliowine from a worthy Coadjutor, of
whom it is our intention to take a little notice
hereafter,--the Dublin Eoetting Post. On the lath,
speaking of BuomapAars, this oracular publica-
tion says—.-

fine Naroutost within the bonntlaries of Oil

we are convinced, rouse the Universal Trench

match for combined Europe.—But we leave these

receipt of letters by Arab merchants, from the

this application was made, we are not tokl ; but
probably it might be about the time when litso-
