came TO her relief. However, the rear OF
the British fleet had kept to windward, and
was near enough TO fight the French reur,
whilst it was making a motion to get 10 the
wake oflhe head Of the line. This attack
of the enemy's van did very little damage
to the ships that sustained ii, though the
Conquerant suffered considerably having
fought with the British van, she sustained

advantage of their superiority in sailing, to
renew the fight. In the beginning of the
night, the enemy's fleet fell to leward, and
the French fleet continued to run to the

lights hung out.

publication of the church. We must con-,
tune to remonstrdte,-not only with the
southern churches, but with the Christian
abettors of slavery at the North,-and if
need be, missionaries must be sent to

and church members, in person. Such a
course may be perilons, -but the perilmust
be met, whenever it shall be found that
oor1tten circumstances are ineffectual,-
