ZION" just formed at Portsmouth, consists of The
following vessels
SEVEN STEAMERS;
EIGHT SHIPS OF THE LINE.
3 OF the Ships Of the Line carry 100 guns each;
2 Others 90; the remainder 4S. The l2Os
have each a complement of 100 men.
The steamers are the Terrible, RetIibuiion,

The Terrible carries one hundred and fifty

This is far more effective fleet than that
with which Nelson won the battle of The Nile.

Mr.. Allen is SO much ou, of humor with the
