Efq. dated on board Ida MaJefty'a Ihip Foudroyant, at Sea, the

requeß you will communicate to their
Lordthips, that. at half pall three, A. M. on the
t3th of Kach, his Majefly's (hip the LONDON, which I
I had Rationed to windward oldie fquadron,
wore, and made the fignal for fame flrange fail, I
direfled the fquadron, to wear likewife upon the
larboard tack, the wind being at W. S. W. ; and, as
daylight appeared, made the fignal for a general
Chace :—loon afterwards the Loanor was obferved
in aftion with a large fhip and a frigate, and continu-
ed fupporting a running fire with thofe [hips which
were endeavouring to et-cape, until half paR (even,
when the AMAZON, being the advanced Blip, purfued
alfo and engaged the frigate, which was attempting
to bear away. The remainder of the fquadron ap-
proaehins faR upon the enemy, (and the action hav-
ing continued from before daylight until forty.three
minutes after nine A. M.), the line of battle fhip,
bearing the flag of a Rear Admiral, Rruck ; and, at
fifty-three minutes paR the above hour, the frigate alfo
followed her example, when an Officer came on board
the FOUDROYANT with Admiral bums's (word, and
informed me, that the (hips whicti bad furrendered to
his Majefty's colours were the Marengo, of So guns,
740 men, and the Belle Poole, of 40 guns. .8 poun.
dere, and 320 men, returning to France from the EaR
Indies; thefe Mips being the remainder of the French
fquadron which had committed fo much depredation
upon the Britifh Commerce in the Eaftern world.
I have much fatisfatlion in Rating the merino-inns
and gallant conduit of Captains Sir HARRY Naaza
and WILLIAM P , fupported by the zeal and
bravery of the Officers and crews of their refpalive
(hips, who claim my warmeß thanks 'and acknow.
ledgments ; and whole exertions, I hope will re-
commend them to their Lordfhips' particular notice
and favour. _ .

I cannot, however, avoid regretting that the force
of the enemy did not afford to the officers and men
of tie other (hips of the fqoadron, who (hewed the
moll carnet defire to have clofed with the enemy, an
opportunity of difplaying that valour and attach-
ment to their King and Country, which, I am confi-
dent they will be happy to evince upon Come future
and snore favourable occafion.
I have enclofed a Lilt of the Killed and Wounded
on board his Majelly's (hips, as well as their &feels ;
and have likewife forwarded a particular datement
of the (hips captured, together with an account of
the loft fuftained by the enemy, being the molt cor-
