Three thirty-two pounders were souk by the eeemy in the s.cr, as well as a large quantity of cordage and other naval stores. iu loss to them, therefore, has been very great; and I am sanguine in belieliigg that, by this blow, they have been deprived of the Iticativ 01 completing the am matornt, and particularly the equipmeat of the large men of war—an object of the greatest importance.
