NATIONAL RECASTER. . mow Crib wi• h 11 vengeful sulky look, and seemed 1 on doing des- Aerate things. The preparations for the fight now commenced in the most solemn manner; and it is impossible to express the breathless anxiety of the multitude at this moment. The determined port of the heroes, their evident strength, and the notorious animo sity of the Moor, all prognosticated a terrible mill. The latter kept walking on the stage, while the seconds were arranging the cloths, &c. in a hasty eisturbed manner, inditeive of violent anger. At length the combatants began to strip—and every heart beat high with expectation. When in fishting trim, b )th looked remarkably well—the Black is handsome fur a man of colour—and Crib is welt and stoutly male. The battle, although short, was most desperate. Four more such rounds as the first, would have given Crib his belly fall: but his excellent training and eetermintd courage enabled him to recover himself, while the Black, who was by no means in such high condition, and WAS moreove thrown off his guard by passion, rapidly lost his wind, and exposed himself to his adversary's murderous hitting. The beating which he re ceived on the throat occasioned him to bleed internally, and it w s very plain, at times, that he was almost suffocated by the blood rising. The blow on the side, which he re ceived when falling, descended like a stroke from a hammer: it was heard distinctly at the extremity of the crowd, and its deadly effects were very visible during the next round. It must however, be allowed that the Moor fought well. Crib himself , we understand, says, that he hits with a strength which no other man possesses • and the face of the champion bears ample testimony to the trut h of his assertion. He is very much disfi gured.—Molineux sparred neatly early in the fight, but he lost his science after he had been a .00d deal punished. We must, however, confess it struck us that the Moor skyed his adversary : be seemed from the very first to be afraid of him—and with the inclination to rush in and sacrifice him to his rage, to couple a dread of the consequences. During the last rounds he fought like a frantic fellow, and fell like a log: his seconds had to lift him up as they would a lump of lead, and lead him to his man as they would a child. After the 11th round he could not again by any means be brought up, and Crib was proclaimed victor by - :shouts which rent the skies. The Black, after the fight, lay ex tended on the stage in a most pitiable manner, as if dead. 'lse Surgeon he brought with him from London bled him, and after . some time had elapsed he was enabled to crawl to his chaise, • supported by two friends, with his body bent like an S. The victor, when his conquest was announced, sprung up from the stage, and cut several capers, to shew that he was yet in a con dition to take and give morehnettiseriseg. No one can say, that in this battle Molineux had not fair play shewn him :—we would, however, suggest that the cries of exultation, which preceeded from the champion's numerous friends, hen the advantage seemed on his side, must have had the effect of cowing the Baltimore man :—we think, in decency and gent rosity, they ought to have been omitted. Molineux, it is said, had provoked a good deal of feeling against him, by sa vage denunciations of vengeance, and vapouring professions of what he would do to Crib. These are certainly sufficiently dis gusting and repugnant to the spirit of Englishmen : but it ought not to have been forgotten that Molineux is a stranger—that he gave proof of his courage by offering a general challenge—sl id that he came to the fi ght, unsupported by friends e f note , while the champion had all the flash-men in his train. It said this latter circumstance preyed much on the mind of the Black, and occasioned him to, what is technically termed, hoick. TUESDAY'S LONDON GAZETTE. FOREIGNOTTICE, BOWNPVCSTRPET, OCT. 1, 1811.

Copy of a Letter from Captain Browne, of his Maj e sty's ship the Hermes, addr es s ( d to Ad m i ra l Si r Roger 'eras, and transmitted to John Wilson Cruker, Esq. His Majesty's ship Hermit s, 15ungenets Roads, September 1.:6, 1811. SIR-4 have the honour to report to you, that on the morning of the 24th inst. close in with Cape Le Htve, his Majesty's ship Hermes recaptured the Prussian brig Anna Maria, from Lisbon for Lont,on, and woeld most certainly have taken the privateer, had not the contiguity to his opt n coast favoured his escape by' half an hour's aail, as the Hermes was nearing him' fast; but the wind blowing -,trong directly on shore prevented further pursuit. I also beg to acquaint you, that the strong West erly winds having driven me from my station,andpr tveme d my reaching St. Helen's, 1 bore up for this anchorage; and in my way hither, when off Beachy Head, I discovered a large lugger in the midst of a number of English vessels, sev, ral of wluch she must have soon captured, and one of which she had tak n before seen by the Hermes. Site was instantly pursued, and in twa hour s . time, after sustaining a good deal of firing, which wounded some of his crew, and damaged her sails, she struck ; but in the act of bringing to, to take possession of ht r the main-topsail yard broke in the slings, and the f ore - sa d of the - Hermes !Tin from the violence of the wind, which the privateer immediately took the advantage of; and although in a situation' under the lee when she surrendered, that would have enabled me to have totally destroys d her, he had the temerity to endeavour to escape, by making sail .on the op posite tack ; but by the great exertion of my officers the ship was wore, and as much sail set as enabled me again to come up with him, although he had got two flutes from us on the weather bow, when, feeling myself justified, after his an.duct, not to give him an opportunity of again escaping, 1 determined to run him alongside, notwithstanding it blew a gale of wind, with a very heavy sea; in doing which he again endeavoured to escape, by crossing our hawse, when, in one instant, a heavy sea instantly threw him under the bottom of his Majesty' s ship, and, I lament to say. that only twelve men out of fifty-one, were saved, it being impossible to hoist a boat out. It appears she was named La Mouche, of Boulogne, had sailed the evening before, was commanded by Nloti4eur Gageux„ mounted fourteen carriage 'gun:, twelve .and six-pounders, was 180 tons, and had a complement of sixty-one men, ten of whom were put on board his prize. 1 have the satisfaction to state, that not one of the crew of the prize were taken on lurtrd the privateer: she was a ship from the West Indies, but her name I could nut learn.
