LIVERPOOL, AUGUST 24.

Eztrad of a letter from Captain JAMES FIN-
LAYSON, of the brig General Keppel privateer to
his Owners, dated Madeira, July 13. "On the
14th June, bein& about fix leagues N. E. from
Santa Cruz, in 1 eneriffe, I raw a !hip and a brig
running down, to which I gave chafe at eleven at
night. I got near enough to hail them, when they
lanfwered they were French (hips of war, and in-
flantly commenced firing ' • the brig only fired a
few (hot when the fbeered off, but the !hip kept up
the adion till half pall 12, when (he fheered off too.
On the 18th I brought to the American (hip Ben-
jamin, in hallaft, from Teneriffe, bound to Lanu-
retta, was informed by the Captain that the (hip I
engaged was the la Mouche, of 2 2 guns, 24, 12,
and 9-pounders, and manned with 250 men ; that
the brig was the Hiram, of and from Liverpool,
mounted with 12 or 14 guns, and manned with 6o
men from the (hip. I was told afro that he had his
fecond Captain killed, and feveral of his men
wounded, his bowfprit fo badly wounded that he'
I was obliged to get a new one, his Rem and head
tore all to pieces by one of my 3o-pound be-
tides a confiderable damage in his fails and rigging.
Although I am confident, from the fpirit of my
crew, I could have taken them, yet my vellel might
have been torn all to pieces, and might afterwards
have fallen an eafy prize to fome other cruizer of
inferior force. I had not a man hurt, nor any da.
mage in my hall. Admiral Moarac us. with the
fleet is getting under weigh."
