tantalized our stuadron at Guadaloupe, by appearing
off there, and then adroitly' giving alert the slip.—
On Wednesday night last, a vessel Of this descrip-
tion of large class, was chise off Point-a-Petre, and
sent her boat in, which aaually reached the shore
and landed the orew without suspicion of danger,.
until warned of it by our sentry's " all's well ,•"
when they made off, leaving one of ,their arty

this second frigate's narrow escape.

on the g3d inst. having lost sight of the enema' at
midnight on the sth, and had not seen any thing of

It will be seen by our Parliamentary Report, that
Sir FttANcis BURDETT has given the SPEAKEB. no-
tice of an action for false implisonmeot. By giving
4 month's notice, which is aiwas required in actions
avinst Magistrates, Sir FRANCIS has admitted that
the 'SPEAKER is invested with that character, though
he has thought proper to deny the validity of his
warrant. Sir FRANCIS; it thus appears, means, to
appeal to the law for redress, for what he conceives
to be an illegal violenee, and to the Tribunals' of the
Country we shall leave him, only observing, that it
would have been most fortunate if Sir FRANCIS Buit-
pETT, amidst his professions of anxiety for the li
berties of the people, had shewn more regard for
their lives.
