TIEE ES.--Thr Guiiuticri of7z guns al
Plymouth, was taken into the stern dock in
that yard yesterday Sc 'nnight, for the bur-
pose OF being cut down, but not 20 the size
of Frigate, as in the case Of the Indefati-
gable ;-she is to have her quarter deck
and forecastle taken away, but will retain
her upper deck which will be fiush fore &
aft. 1t is considered by the Navy Board,
that even thus partially cut down, she will
be no more than match for the 3 heavy
American frigates which by carrying guns
on their gangwayshave in effect complete
decks. Indeed - gun ship even the largest
class would if cut down to a frigate (razee)
be inferior to a regularly bulls fris2te of 3S
guns. The following short statement will
smroborate this:
A Ga gun ship carries on ons side Of her
gun deck Is guns.
A "a d. (2nd classy do IL suns.
Ditto FIRST class do. Is guns
A SO gun frigate. of the class Of The Ma.
cedonian, ! ) guns.
Ditto. of tie Acasta, s guns.
President. United States, & Constitution
10 guns.
Hence it appears that II gun ship, ever
of the largest class, would be nursericall,
inferior in guns to a regular built frigat,
Of the SO gun class. The only superiority
zee has, s., .he being eneDied 10 casy,
heavier metal than the Frgates or SO guns
but she will carry ouc gun less. The Iude
tatigablc 1T this port, (Tazee,) was Gu
down from a Ga and carries ruas less OF
each side than the Acssta, President, Uni
ted States and Constitution, end would no
be match for either Of ttem- The Boarc
have, therefore, acted properly in orderin)
