This granted al once aud addressed note
to Capt. Capel, stating that 1 felt persuaded
that the application of the father, furnished as
he was with conclusive evidence of the na,iv-
Jay aud the identity Of the son, would induce
an immediate ordee for his discharge. The
reply Is enclosed. The son deserted mis- ia
thee at a distance in the boat and told the
FIRST Lieutenant of the S,stira that II was his
father, and understand the feelings mani
tested oy the old man Oh receiving the hand
of his son, proved beyond all other evidence
che properly he had in him. There was not
. doubt Ief. on the miad Of single British
Office of Hiram rn.ye. S being on American
Citizen--and yet he Is detained,.not as a pris.
oner OF War, bW compelled, under the most
cruel threats, 10 serve the cneusies of his

appointed boatswain's mate, aud is now SER
ving In that capacity in the Statira--and he
says there is dAe 10 him from the British gov.
Srnmsnt about TWO hundred aud hfly pounds

De hts Always retuss sd TO rccefvc any bounty
or advance, lest it might afford some pretexs
