Saturday night and yesterday morning a
battery at Conanicut disturbed the quiet oc

sloop, that they took the advantage of
fair wind and pushed out to sea; but AS
they passed the mouth Of the harbor, bat

ed the Scarborough twice, and sent one Is

brough Man of War of 20 guns, from Geor-
eia, Snow of l6 guns, and Brig and
Sloop, came 20 anchor in the harbor of New
port.-The same night the two Row-Gal-
lies from this town boarded and took the
Brig and Sloop, and attempted to board the
Snow; but she having great number of
Marines on board, they were obliged to quit
her.-A Battery at the North end of New
port, and the Gallies, afterwards played so
effectually on the Scarborough and Snow,
as obliged them 20 slip their cables, and run
under Canonicut, where they remained yes
terday.-Mr. Daniel Jenckes Tilinghast, of
this town, was wounded on board one of
the Gallies,-The Brig taken is loaded with
bread and flour, the Sloop with Salt.
The anchors and cables of the Scarbor-
ough and Snow, which they so hastily left,
have been since taken up by our people,
with one or two others belonging to the Pr
rates." Nerp0r Mercury.

more incomprehensible being than Napo-

every thing noble, brave, geLerous. aud

his Court, especially Americans, are
charmed with his aGabiIliy and domestic
virtues, while the newspapers of our
