I have the honour to inform you, that this morn-
• ing, 4 day-light, I saw a lugger_ in the north-west,
having French-caours flying, dined by the Dwarf
cutter and Pioneer schooner, the latter vessel fir
'astern.
At ten o'clock the lugger made an ;nett', ctual at-
tempt to cross the Bermuda's boyv, and did not stir-
' render till he had received several broadsides of
grape from this vessel.
The utmost gallantry was displayed by every Offi-
cer and man employed in the boats ut the-Dwarf and
Pioneer, and the animated zeal and laborious:exer-
• ;loos of Lieutenant Got don and those who remained
On board the cutter exceed all praise.
• The prize is the 'ptivati er le Bon Genie, of Bou-
logne, having on board 16 guns (four only mounted)
ai,d 60 men ; she sailed' from Boulogne last. night,
and had not made any captures.
The enemy made a desperate resistance, and his
loss has been severe, there being three killed and 16
wounded, most of them severely.
