THE CHESAPEAKE FRIGATE

THE CHESAPEAKE FRIGATE
Has made more noise in the world than
&ny ship of war ever before heard Of The
axultation manifested in England on account
of her Capture is truly ridiculous. What !
p it come to this, that England, With her
Thousand ships 81 war, boasts fhaving taken
o jSr bnRf IJIy0fe, MANNED Svifh 6asfards and
s'st'LaSos 2" Had she again be lten the com
eined fleets of France and Spain, abe could
not do more. But had there been nothing
but this ebulition of childish folly, UNIV orthY
Of great nation, We should have passed It
ever in si!ence--Accustomed, as we have
been, to conquer Englishmen, we should
have been contented To offset the Chesa-
Peakc with the Dominica and Boxer, and
&lere let the matter rest. But he falsehoods
altered by Mr.. Croker. Secretary to the
British Board OF Admiralty, in the Commons
House OF Parliament, must not pass uncon-
tradicted. IL isSo notorious that the Chesa-
peake was in no respect superior TO the
shannon, and equally as notorious that the
Shannon was in some respect superior tothe
Chesapeake, that TO the American public,
Dothing more can be necessary than to re
fer 10 these facts which are 80 we'll known
90 them. That the loss IF our frIgate was
owing purely to accidents, 10 an undeniable
truth, which cannot be affected by Mr. Gro
ker's statement. The trident Of Neptune
must tremble in the hands of Britain, when
she is obliged thus to prop up her sinking
greatness. 10
