Extract ola letter from a gentleman
Ill Havana to his friend in this city,
dated Havana, November %.
I" The British government has sent
here a Lewiston of one frigate, brig,
and a cutter to cruise against the pi-
rates, on the east, and they have alfea
dy commenced their operations, in
which they will be supported also by
this government. They are expect

Extracts Of letter from a gentle
man IN Pensacola, TO has friend
an this city.
My last informed you that the crew
of the Cermen, captuf ed on the Coast
OF Cuba, by the sloop of war Peacock
and cutter Louisa had been brought
here and committed by Judge Brock
enridge for trial. The Spanish inha-
bitants immediately afterwards, raised
a subscription for them and employed
counsel, though it is understood they
have since received ample credits from
New Orleans and the Judge has ad
mitted the chiefs of them to bail 1t
seems they had no commission to cruise
but had complete warlike outfit, more
than twice the number of men upon
their roll, and carried the bloody flag,
worn by the pirates in those seas. 1
lament to learn, that the Peacock has
lost during the cruise, so many of her
officers by the fever. Lorna, the may
or, and other of the principal Spanish
inhabitants are the bail" Eng.
