C.)ny of a Lett:.,r. . from Captain. Arthur, Commander of his
.J Cherokee, to Vice-Admiral Campbell,
ttonsmitt4 by, the latter to John Wilssn, Croker,
His Nfajesty's sloop, Cherokee, Downs;
SIR . lan. it, ato.
I Lave the bonour•to acquaint you; that on recon-
noitering Dieppe yesterday, I perceived seven lugger,
privateers at anchor close together,' within a cable's
length of the pier head under the batteries; and
deerumg it, notwithstanding their numbers; 'practi7
cable to: capture or destroy' 'sonic of-them, I ~this
morning at One o'ciock, the wind being SOutherly,,
stood in and perceked the whole seven at 'anchor,
as when reconnoitered; immediately run between
two, ,and laid 0110 'on, board,
,which, after a ltuitles4
attempt on the pas Col the enemy to board the Che-
rokee, I succeeded in bringing out, and whieh
proves to be the Amiable ,Nelly, a new lugger of
sixteen guns, one hundred and six tons, and. sixty
men.

During the time we were under the batteries, the
whole of the privateers kept up a constant fire.of
musketry; but, I VII happy 10 state, only two were
wounded, viz. Leutenant.Gabriel and Mr. Janus
Ralph, boatswain, both in hand. Tue enemy
had two killed and eight wounded, three dange-
rously.

I feel it a ditty I owe' 16—My officers auci
company to state, their conduct deserc6i my warm--
est.approLation, for the cool sreactille4s thy xhewed,
both in attacking the enemy, and duting the tame
we were under the batteries.
I have, &c.
