With lively emotions of satisfaction I
communicate that success has crowned the gall

Bower, ON the Point of Mobile. 3FF

Of ITO marines, sad 200 creek Indians, under

The result OF this engagement has stamped
character on the war in this quarter highly ia
vourabie to the American arms il is an event
from which may be drawn the most favourable
augury:
An achievement so glorious in itself, and so
important IN its consequences, should be ap.
prec'ated by the government; and those con
cerned are entitled 10, and will doubtless, re-
ceive the most gratifying evidence Of the ap-
probation of their countrymen.
In the words Of Major Lawrence, where all
behaved well, 1t is Unnecessary TO discrimi-
nate" But all being meritorioas, beg leave
TO annex the names Of the officers who were
engaged and present and hope they will, indi-
yidualIy, be deamed worthy of distinction.

They abuse US in the most outrageous aud bill
