Sir—l beg Icave to inform you, that yellerday,
the Start bearing N. N. W. fix leagues, I obferved
a lugger to leeward, to which I gave chafe, and in
two hours came up with and captured her. She
proves to be the Efpoir, mounting fix carriage
guns, (two brafs four-pounders, and four iron two-
pounders) manned with twenty-three men, from
Cherbourg two days, and had not made any cap-
ture. From its blowing a gale of wind we were
unable to exchange priloners, I therefore judged
it proper to fee her into port.
