SIR: Having captured schooner of light draught,
which, with her cargo, estimate to be worth
some S25, 900, and being denied the privilege of
leaving her at this port until she could be adudi-
Gated, | have resolved to dispatch her to New Or
leans with prize crew, with the hope that she
may be able to elude the vigilance of the blocka-
ding squadron and run into some one of the shoal
passes 10 the westward Of the Mississippi-as Bar.

myself OF this opportunity to send you my first deS
patch since leaving New Orleans | can do no
more, for want of time, than merely euumerate
events.

Brooklyn) on the 30th of June, the Brooklyn Civ

ed her.
On the next dav, the 4th, captured the brigan-
tines Cuba and Machias, both of Maine also. They
