to carry supply OF ammunition to the ncighborhood
of Jacmel where the insurgents were at that time
rcpucd to be In strong force The vessel proceeded on
her errand, and when near the port was hailed
by party Shore who sent of boat to thcm. The
party in the boat represented themselves belonging
to large body insurgents in the ncghtorLood The

wounded and several Haytians killed The loyal
troops seem TO have quickly concluded that
