In obedience to your fignal, the chafe was con-
tinued until dark, at which time being becalmed
among the rocks of the Ines of Brehat I anchored,
and the next morning, (the 3d infant,) obfet.ving a
large (hip with French colours, under the protec-
tion of a cutter tuid lugger privateers, making
fail with the flood, from the anchorage of Brehat
to Plampoul, the boats were immediately dif-
patched under the command of Lieutenant CHAM.
BERLAYNE, having under his orders Mr. SCALLON,
Second Lieutenant ; Mr. BELLAMY, Third; Mr.
HOS' KINS, Mailer; and Mr. TAITE, Marine Offi-
cer, &c. &c.; the enemy fecmed, at firft, determined
to refill and defend their veffels, and fent many
boats from the (bore to their afliftance, who, with
the lugger, took the Chip in tow, but on the very
IPirited and near approach of the TRENT'S, the
lugger and boats call off the tow, and after main-
taining a fevere confliet, aided by a continued
fire from five batteries, they were at length fu'o-
dued and chafed on the rocks; after which the
(hip, in the face of open day, was moll gallantly
boarded by the Firft Lieutenant and Marine Offi-
cer, who, I am lorry to fay, has loft his right
leg, and the very meritorious and fpiritcd zeal
with which all the officers and men were animated
on this enterprife, refleds on them the highett
honour.

Thcalip appears Engin built, about three hun-
dred tons, with a cargo of corn, and various other
articles, but not having made any prifoners, fur-
ther particulars are unknown.
Enclofed I return you a lift of killed and wound-
ed; that of the enemy could not be exaelly afcer-
mined ; two were killed on board the chip, and
feveral were drowned: the Rate of the prize re-
quiring proteaion into port, and the wind being
cafterly, I judged it prudent to put into this place.
