their defecttUe sf1fe, than from the fire from,

The latter declaration is notoriousIy un-
true and as to the "de/ectiUc state" of the
Gnerrcre's masts, it is too shallow pre-
tence to deceive even weak minds The
Gucrricre was the pride OF the Halifax sta
ton. She had a select crezv. and was in the
very best order; and her commander (son
to an English Admiral) had seen consdera-
