,4 Three of our line of battle (hips, the Ext-
LONA, RLESSIIL, and Aonotastmow, were aground.
expofed to the tremendous fire of the Crown Bat-
teries. Lord Natroy fury their dangerous fitua-
tion, and it was only a cool comprehenfise mind
like his own, that could &vitt the means of ex-
tricating them, which he immediately adopted.
He went into his cabin, and addreited R letter to
the PRINCE ROYAL, in which he informed him.
that motives of humanity induced him to requirc,
that the fire from the Crown Batteries Gould in.
flantly ceafe, as the uounded Danes in his power
could not be attended to if the firing was con.
tinned. Orders were giver. ac2ordiligly, and a
,ceirAtioa of hottilitics took place."
