that the amount of the prizes which must. of

GENERAL ORDER.

The affecting intelligence which has
kthis day been received, relative to the
N~death of Thai most excellent officer and
oman, Lieut.. Cond't WilIiam III.
Cooke, by shot fired from the Gus.
title of st. Johns, has filled US all with
sthe most lively sorrow and regret -
Had he fallen in battle, had he died
& by the hands of declared enemies, our
s.sorrow would have been assuaged by
n knowledge of his rights of his coun-
= try, and while his duty as an officer
. But to be thus cruelty torn from his
family, his friends, and from country,
by the conduct of a bastard (whose
: aim was rendered more sure by his per-
s. feet safety, and by the helpless con
= dition of the vessel of our lamented
: friend) is heart rending in the ex-
= IRENE.
But while we depricate the act of
= the individual who committed it, we
: must not involve in it the conduct of a
whole people. The authorities of Por-
3 TO Rico, and in particular the Cap
; tain General of the Island, has given
: The most unequivocal proof ofthe most
: sincere regret, thatthe event has taken
piacc.-Every thing has been done
by him, that / could reasonably ex-
| pect of him 10 do at present, to satisfy
/ me ofhis friendly disposition towards
I us, and as no act of ours, can call to
( life the estimable man who has been
3 taken from us, we mast leave what
: remains yet to'be done, to our country,
= whose demands will no doubt, be
: prompt and effectual.
All that remains for US to do, is to
) grieve, and as slight token of what
we feel, it is proposed to wear Grape
:. on our left arms, and on our swords
for one month";
