June =, 1912.
1--WE have been out several DAYS, and
are In constant expectation of meeting the
British Ship Royal George of 20 guns,-
1t is reported, from a source to be depend
ed on, that she intends to take some men
VINO deserted from her, and are now on
board this vessel, by force; we are resoly-
ed to keep them as long as we are in a
state to fire gun. On the 5tk inst in the
morning we discovered three sail about TWEEN
ty miles to windward of us. We immediate
ly made sail in chace, and at shutdown, were
within four miles of them, and lost sight d.,
ring the night. Next morning we saw two
OF them about ten miles head, and con-
tinued the chase we got within mile OF
them at four and fired blank cartridge as
signal for them to bear down under our
lee. One of them stretched off to the Can
ada shore the other boisted British CO.
lors and stood on her course. We fired a
shot over her which she did not regard.
we then dropped another Just ahead
She then bore down and came under cur lee.
we sent our boat on board, and found her
to be the British Schooner Lord Nelson.
from Prescott, bound to Niagara so said
the captain but as she was found under
our shore without papers, and partly laden
with dry goods, we had no doubt she was
smuggling, and therefore took possession of
sher, and sent her to Sackett's Harbor-
we afterwards made sail in pursuit of the
other, but night coming on she made her es-
saPe. expect the one we took will be
condemned. We intend to keep bright
lockout tor smagglers. | have no doub t
but we shall catch number of them. i
imagine we shall not go to Niagara this
cruise. We have been within forty miles
OF it, but returned after we had taken the
prize. We are now about fifty miles from
oacketts Harbor, which 1 presume we
shall reach to-morrow.--We shall proba-
bly, lie there day or two, and then be of
on another cruise
