THE NATIONAL REGISTER. TUESDAY'S LONDON GAZETTE. AMMIRALTY-OFFICIrp JULY 9, 1811. Copy of Letter from Admiral Sir Charles Cotton, Bart. Com mander in Chief of . his Majesty's Ships and Vessels in the Mediterranean, to John Wilson Croaker, Esq. dated on board the San Joseph, off Toulon, lfith May, 1811. st—The Lords Commissionersof the Admiralty will receive, with much satisfaction, the accompanying report from Captain Barrie, of a gallant and successful enterprise, performed by his /Viajlemy's ship Pomone, under his command, and the Unite and Scout, in the Bay of Sagone, in the Island of Corsica, on the Ist of this month. I have the honour to be, &c. (Signed) C. Corrox. His Majesty's ship Pomone, off Sagone, IVlay 2, 1811. SIIL-My letter of the 23d ult. would acquaint you with the intelligence I had received of the enemy's force in Sagone. and that it was my intention, wider particular circumstances, to at tack them. I have now the honour to inform you, that on the evening of the 30th I arrived oil the B .y, the Unite and Scout in comp Any; the Scout joined in the morning, and Captain Sharpe having volunteered his services to take arge of the landing party in the projected attack, I consented to take the Scout under my end,,rs. At sunset, the Unite made the signal for an enemy's frigate at anchor. By day break on the Ist, the Pomone was close off Liamone, and I had the satisfaction to observe the enemy's three ships at anchor in Sagone Bay. It was nearly calm, and the variable winds which prevail at this season having thrown the Unite a long way astern, I abandoned my design of attempting to take the tower and battery by surprise ; and it was fortunate I did so, for as the day opened, we could clearly observe the enemy in full possession of the heights, and ready to receive us. Ho appeared to have about 200 regular troops, with their field-pieces, &c. and a number of the armed inhabi tants; the battery consisting of four guns and one mortar, pre sented a more formidable appearance than I expected, and a gun was mounted on the Martell() tower, above the battery ; the three ships were moored within . stone'- throw of the battery, and had each two cables on shore ; their broadsides were present ed to us. The smallest ship (I ,a Giraff;!) hoisted a broad pendant; she appeared to be a sister vessel to the Var, at:d showed 13 guns on each side the main deck. The other ship (La Nourrice) was much larger, and showed 14 guns; her lower deck ports were open, hut she had no guns in them. The armed ship was partly bid by the Nourrice, so that we could not make out her force. My pen 1$ too feeble to express my admiration of the zealous and spirited conduct of the boats crews employed on this service ; the same zealcnimated each ships company, and by six o'clock, having towed into a position within range of grape, we com menced the action, which lasted without any intermssion till ahvut half past seven, when smoke-was observed to issue from the Giraffe ; soon al . :er La Nourrice was in a blaze, and the mer chantman was set on fire by the brands from La .Nourrice ; at this time the battery and tower were silenced, and in ten mi nutes the three ships were completely on fire, I lost no time in towing our ships out of harms way, where we waited the ex plosions, which took place in succession. The Giraffe blew up about ten minutes before nine, soon after La Nourrice exploded, and some of her timbers falling on the tower, eptirely demolish ed it, and the sparks set lire to the battery, which also blew lip: the objact of our attack ling thus completely executed, I stood out to sea to get clear of the wrecks, and to repair our damages. No language of mine can do justice to the gallantry of those I had the honour to command. It is but justice to declare that the enemy kept up a very smart ire, and behaved with great bravery. 1 can form no opinion of their loss. I have the honour to be, &e. Oigued) • ROBRRT BARRIE.
