NEw-YoRK, October IS.

Yesterday arrived the armed ship Lean
der, capt. Lewis, in thirty days from Port
au-Prince, with valuable cargo OF coffee.
The Leander left Port-au- Prince in COM
PAW with the armed brig Dolly, Rlcard;
having been previously cautioned, that one
or two large French privateers was expect
ed to lay in wait for them. On the third
day after leaving port, large armed vessel
hove in sight, which they expected was one
Of those privateers, and bore down on The
Leander. AS it was near nighttall, and
captain Lewis wished to ascertain whether
she was friend or enemy before dark, he
fired gun and hoisted the American CO.
lours. No signal was given in reply, but
rhe vessel continued to approach, lighted
her lamps, as it became dark, and the crew
Of the Leander, could distinctly hear the
commands given with the trumpet, as the
weather was remarkably serene, and she
was now within few fathoms distance.
Her Intention was supposed to board,
capt. Lewis thought it prudent to put her
IN confusion by commencing the attack
He accordingly poured broadslde OF Is
Founders into her, which shattered her
bow considerably, cut away her rigging,
and killed one man, the captain OF the main
top. Great confusion ensued and SIZE fell
back, the Leander aided by the Dolly, kept
plying her with round shot, and OCCASION
ally with grape and language, which did
great damage to her rigging.
The next morning she came up again
and proved to BE the Fortuna British fri
gate, capt. Vansittart, Of A guns. Her guns
the preceding evening had all been in the
hold in consequence Of the lats gale, & as
she thad not expected an enemy, the vessel
was entirely unprepal ed for action.
The captain at first threatened conside-
rably, bat capt. Lewis explained the cir
cunlstance, and stated to him that had he
shewn his colours, the event would not
have taken place. He impressed 26 men
from the Leander and Dolly, many OF whom
we're Americans with projections and OBJ
liced capt. Lewis to pay 500 dollars tor the
wife ofsthe man killed, and 1000 dollars to
repair the damages, bat his conduct was
very gentlemanty considering the irritation
of the circumstance.
The Leander is fine handsome vessel :
carries u eighteen pound carronades' and
two long brass twelves.--the latter transfer
able. She has 60 men.

In the year 1889, the accursed Revoiu'
ton commenced its destructive career;
since which event the commerce or France,
not with her colonies ONLY, but with ali the
world. has been gradually declin lg until
now it is completely extinct. Ibis is one
of the evils brought upon that miserable
country. by the abomnable spirit or mno-
walton, or as our visionary politicians term
it, reform: this is one of the means by
which. the canting philosophers OF France
have {. ameliorated her condition" Al
though every man Of common sense has
long foreseen what must, in the inevitable
course OF things, be the result OF this revo-
luton, vet our exclusive patriots continued
TO the last moment to talk ct our Sister Re-
pubic. They may now sing requiem tor
her soul; and read the Senatus-Consultum
ofthe 28th FIoreal, year II, as a correct
commentary on their own political Perspl-
cacitv. After that is read, we hope no.
