NAFAL INTELLIGENCE.

Retract of a letter from on board the Gaa,epus, off the coast
of Cuba, June 20 From Cayo Largo we proceeded to Salt
Key, and found the pirates had left there two days; we re-
mained three days at Aquadilla, thence for Havannah ; In four
days we arrived at Sugar Key, and, having been joined by the
SHAM, the boats were dispatched under the command of Capt.
Pamir, with 90 men, well armed. Ha' ag received information
of another of the pirates' stations, under a chief named Raphae-
lini, we bore away for this station; next day we fell in with
Captain PERILY, of the Sii.tax, and two schooners he had cap-
tured, the crews of which had escaped into the wools ; a party
of men were landed in pursuit, and divided into separate parties.
At sun-act they returned to the boats, except one marine. At
day-light a search was made in the woods for the lost man:
some of the men heard a report of a musket, hastened to the
spot, and found the marine with a Spaniard over him and in the
act of stabbing him ; our men gave a shout, and presented their
muskets, upon which he dropped his weapon, fell upon his knees,
and begged for mercy, promising to pilot us to the pirates' ren-
dezvous. To-morrow we are off for Sagua le Grande, where
Rapha-lini's squadron are lying, and their prize-money is said to
amount to 180,000 dollars."
