dreadful conflict. Our loss in killed was 128.ktit

and 52 wounded—Total SSzS.

effective co-operation of Admiral CAPELL.AI4 and

glory by it, ns well as secured to their country a
degree of consideration which► will long protect
its commerce in these Seas.

Was. YoPIIAM (son to Rear-Aihniral Sir 11.

bardment. These Officers exerted themselves
with matchless bravery in (Erecting the dreadful
engines under their command, and produced ..n
astonishing effect. But indeed the display of ta-

almost invidious to make a selection.
A French frifeAte was for several hours a spectator
of the business, but was too delicate to attempt
to share in the glory with the 'rats of Old England.
It'would do her good, however, to see how they
acquitted themselves. •
The French Papers, it will be seen, contain
rather erroneous details of the action.

Corn, and.the labo;:rs of agriculture, we rejoice
to bear flour a number of places, are now ptirsu-

fair hope of being abundantly rewarded. We
know not whether we should more thankfully
acknowledge this providenthei change of the
season, or. that triumph of our arms, recorded

it is well to acknowledge it together with the
blessing of a propitious harvest, that we may
feel at once the Divine Goodness which thus
crowns our efforts with signal success abroad,
and Ilestows out us that which should make us
happy and contented at home.
