a hurried hand tO-hand conflict captured Sir
knights Butler, Blanching, Boyle and Butler.
took them in tow, and brought them to this
city-Sir knight Regnault on the part of his
brethren, and Lieut. Maule on the part Of the
Blues assuring them Of such treatment a. was
customary in warfares OF this kind, and Sir
knight Blanching, in behalf OF his fellow pri.
soners, returning thanks forthe promised kind
ness.
As soon Is the vessels made fast at Recketts,
the prisoners were taken In charge, and under
the escort of a powerful guard, were conducted
to the quarters Of Col. Haskins, where they
were kindly received, and at once put to work L
destroying the "enemy Of all mankind done mp
In the most inviting packages. What will be
their fate, no one can now tell; but when we
saw the task before the poor fellows, and the
unrelenting task-masters who had assembled
frain from expressing our sympathy at their
hard lot. If they managed to get through last
night in safety, other labors are before them
Tor to-day and to- morrow, so that their friends
at home need not fear that they will escape
the punishment due to their temerity In yen-
turing into such heather waters.
The "Haswell" :" 10 Of thirty mine tons bur-
then, sloop-rigged, perfectly white, and sits
upon the water ~ gracefully as swan. She
the North, and is perfect in all her parts. She
left Providence on the 4th, took in stores at
Hoboken, and made no other pert until arriv-
ing here, If we except a brief call at Old Point.
Her crew are all in fine health and report that
they had pleasant voyage and delightful
weather. hundreds OF our citizens will no
doubt visit her to-day, and many will be sur
prised to IND that men can be found who
would be willing to 90 to sea in craft not
much larger than an Indian "dug-out," and
apparently as frail as a fairy boat.
