for the conseerated vessels which his
father Nebuchadnezzar had taken from

from her anchorage, off BtistoI, on Saturday
afternoon, and passed by this town at sunset,
and proceeded 10 sea wish light breeze from
the north west. We wish the Commodore
no worse luck than to fall in with the stcutest

induce the belief that some villain or villains
gave Immediate information to the Comman-
der Of the British squadron, now blockading
New-L london.
