LaOrient .asad Isle Of d'Aix, with 2 squad
rons, consisting each Of 4 sail Of the linea

harbors from the blockade. On the even

ptared OFF l. Orient, whence three trigates
were to Join him, but these could not get
out III these evening, and as the rear admiral
could not wait for them, on the following
day, when these frigates did get out, they
were placed ina very unpleasant situation,
and were obliged, being chased by four of
the enemy's ships, to retreat towards the
Stables roads, where, being aided by the
forts, they defended themselves for three
hours most oiastinately against the superior
force of the enemy, and at length compelled
him to reueat.
