of his Majeity's Sloop the Scout, detailing the proceedings of that
(loop and the Redwing in deftroying a Spanlib privateer, a letter II
of marque, and a felucca, in the river of Barbate, on the 55th
kftant. I allot tranfmit one from Lieutenant Tornlinfon. com-
manding his Majeity's gun brig the Dexterous, giving an account
of his having on the 23d initant, attacked two of the enemy's pri•
vateers near the Iftand of Carl!, one of which was captured and
brought out. Sub-Lieutenant Pritchard, who commanded the
Dexterous boats on this meafiossi and bad the misfortune to be
wounded, I had appointed to aft as Lieutenant of the Terrible on
the 23d, instead of Lieutenant Campbell of that thip, invalided ;
and I hope he will in a ihort time be fufficiently recovered to join
his chip. I am, Sir, &c. (Signed) coxttriowoon.
His Majefty's Sloop Scout, Gibraltar Bay. June 26.
My Lord—l beg leave to inform your Lordilip,
that on the 13th inflant, his Majeily's flnop under
my command, in company with his Nfajelly's (loop
Redwing, chaced into the river Barbate a Spanifh
privateer and a letter of mauve, with a felucca un.
der his convoy. She got over the bar, and opened
her fire on us as we were (landing into the bay ; I
anchored both brigs within range of grape of the
river, and fent in the boats of both (loops to deflroy
them, which, I am happy to inform your Lordfhip,

they did.
The privateer's name is the De Bon Vaffallio,.
Peter Thompfim, Commander, mounting one long
24 pounder and two long fixes, manned with 42
men, all of which made their efcare but four ; the
others' names I could not hear. They alfo took two
fignal pods, and brought the fignals off, which 1
inclofe to your Lordfhip.
My Lord, I am much indebted to the officers,
petty officers, feamen, and marines of both brigs, EA.
the Ready and determined condo t in boarding the
privateer under a heavy fire from hi; great gun.
I am happy to inform your I.ordlhip that we have
loft no men; only one man of the.dedwing, who
has hi. arm broke by a fplinter by the explofton of
the privateer when the was blown up. I have the
honour to be, &c. (Signed) w. RAITY.
His Majefty's gun brig Dexterous, Gibraltar Bay, June 24•
My Lord—Having obferved the Ifle of Cant, at
the foot of Apes Hill, to be a lurking place for the
enemy's privateers which infeft the Gut, I endea•
voured on the 23d inftant to make myfelf acquainted
by founding round it ; the boat fent on this duty was
fired,iat by a privateer, which had fecreted herfelf
anionglt the rocks. At four P. M. came to, with a
fining on the cable, within lets titan half a mile of
the enemy's veffel, which we now difcovered to be
two, from which our fire drove the mer. At five,
finding our fire not to have the defied effed, of f►nk-
ing them, the officers and people volunteered to
bring them out in the boats, which they effected under
a heavy fire of mnfketry from the privateer's people,
Rationed on the ifland. She is named the Vidoria,
Jofeph Landage, commander, mounting two long
,x•eounders, and 25 men, one of whom we found
4 on hoard wounded.

I have the fati4aBtion to inform your Lnrdthip,
that the cool and Heady behaviour of the Dexterous'
crew meets my approbati,n ; but the gallant conduEl
of Mr. Pritchard, Sub-Lieutenant, who commanded
the party, deferves the higheti commendation ; for
though wounded in the Cade he ii,re he or on b3ard
the veff.l, he concealed the hurt till he received a
fecond ball through the arm; he (peaks in the higheß
terms of the men under his command, efpectally
Edward Stokes, gunner's mate, to whom, on Mr.
Pritchar d's being wounded, the command devolved.
I have now the painful talk to fulfil t f acquaint-
ing your Lordfhip, that we had one amine killed,
and two feamen (betides Mr. Pritchard) wounded:
they are all in a fair way of recovery. The other
veffel was fo teemed by the jocks, that it was
im-
puli-able to get her out. 1 have the honour to be, &c.
(Signed) ROBERT TOMLINSON,
Lieut. and Commander.
