CHARLESTON, Aug. 10.

The schr. Harriet, Capt. Steel, owned
BY Mrs. Horny, from this port, bound to
Santee (inland) with part Of a cargo OF
corn, was captured on monday afternoon
last, in WATTS Sound, the back OF De-
wees inlet by four barges. manned by
about so men, from tho British briggs
now cruising off, our harbor. Captain
Steel had the sehr's boat given to him,
and was permitted to leave the schooner
with Negro passenger, who was un-
we'll. The crew, consisting Of Ne
groes, were carried off BY them, except
ing a boy who had gone off in boat al
ter a bucket that had fallen overheard,
who, on perceiving the schr. In posses
sion of the barges, made for the shore
and escaped. Capt. Steel arrived here
yesterday morning, we learn from him
that the Harriet was burnt ON the alter.
noon of her capture, and that they had
taken sloop o sned by Mr.. DeliesseliHe,
of Devices Island, which they also IN
tended to burn, He supposed that they
must have come in at Bulls Bay, as
when they boarded the Harriet, they
came from the northward. From this
Circumstance. it is feared that some o.
Their of the inland coasters between this
and Georgetown may have been captur-
ed. Cap, Steel did not, however, learn
from them of any having been taken.
