POSTSCRIPT
LOSS OF THE U. 8. BRIG ENTERPRISE.


New YoRx, July give regret to
learn by The arrivals from Curacao, that
this fine vessel. Of IL guns, was cast away
on the night of the 9th inst. at Little Cura
Goa. The following particulars, furnished
by gentleman on board, are published
in the Curacao Courant OF the 18th inst.
"On the morning OF the 9th inst. we
swept out Of the harbor OF Puerto Cabello,
and at P. M. a light breeze sprung up
at which time we were still in sight OF
that port. AT & rucacas bore w. BY 5
we then s,eered n. by w. unul T. VI.
when We steered n. n. W. and ran 20
miles until midnight, at which time we
kept away n. ". w and alter running
on that course about 10 miles. to the utter
a:tou,shment OF every officer on board
we grounded on The 5. K. extremity OF
Little Curacao, when our reckoning
made Us trOm 90 to 80 miles from It.
The vessel struck bout halt alter 3 A. NJ I,
the weather thick, the land not then visl-
BILE, and heavy wind driving her on the
breakers. The sails were turled at once,
the boats hoisteG out, the Hedge, the
stream and bower anchors immediately
carried out with long scope 0t cable,
and let 70 into deep water; the top-gal.
lant and top-masts housed, the yards
poiuted to the wind, and tor short time
we were battered with strong hopes OF
besvng her of but owing 20 the increase
OF the wind in squalls with heavy surf,
the stream cable parted, when she round
ed 10 broadside on The breakers. and i'm.
medisteiy biiged and filled. The masts
were then cut away to prevent her totally
caps,zing, aud every Effort made to save
the crew, and property public and private,
which, owing TO the unexamp!ed exer-
tons Of the officers aud crew, TO their per-
feet subordinalion, GOODNESS aud intrepid
ty, were eminently successful. Every
person on board, most OF the rigging,
spsrs, stores, SC. have been landed, and
should the weather prove calm, The guns
aud more OF the provisions will be saved.
/; IS but justice TO remark, that as
soon as the accident was known in this is-
land, every assistance that humanity
could sugg ii, was promptly afforded by
the governm: mt, and by Z l.. Parker, A.
mericaD Consul
ln addition to the above we may state
that accounts received yesterday from the
wreck say that all the guns had been lard
ed, anu would be brought down to this is
land, toge Their " IT'D tbs stores, &c saved,
in the vessels despatched for that purpose.
The officers and crew were enCamped on
the hesch. Measures have already been
adopted tor their reliet, and brig char
tered TO transport them to the U States.
His Eycriienuy the Governor, on being
made acquainted with the misfortune
which had beiallen the Enterprise, iinme
dlately endered the assistance OF The ship
of war on that station, but was informed
that ali efforts to save The vessel were un.
awaiting.
