From the vio. lence of the current on our approaching cne land it provgfc mpracticable to pas; ahead of her,,and a?, a quarter ptftji the-enemy commenced the action by firing her fiar'oaicl ’ broadlide, and vrt had scarcely time to haul up tlie lower deck ports and return the compliment before we were linger, ceptibly aboard of each other, both our heads in the fame way (to die northward.) Our men behaved with courage and diferetion, notwithstanding fcveral of them wi?e wounded at a very early period of the engagement. They twice attempted to board us, but we repelled with gre.it violence, he petition of the fliip rendered the dexterity of the cannoniers fruitleis, and the cooinels and intrepidity dilpla'.’ed by individuals in the Mars are hardly crediole* * iut fads proved it, by moll of the enemy’s gnns being dis. mounted and otberwife lhattered, infonnich that had it blown frdhßhe'imdfc have funk, and -ntoih probably v,- fliouid have fiiared the fame fate. The enemy now finding tliemfelves.encumbered with the killed and wounded, (of the former there were 90 thrown overboard tlie next morn ing) and altogether diiabkd, they earnelfly implicatedkr quarters about lialf past 1-0, when we her as hav, :ng surrendered. At this time the French lliip was on fire in three different places; then our ad -Lieutenant (Mr. Bouker) very gallantly boarded her, notwitiillanding the confulion, and was oppoled by Jome of the officers on the quarterdeck, but without effccf, and soon got poffelfion of aer, and extinguished the fire> The prize is L Heicnle, a iarge 74, 70c men, commanded by L’Herilte, Chef de kivtiion; (he was in L’Amerique on tlie ill June) fix Tionths off the stocks, two days from L’Orient, bound to Breif; ix months stores and provisions, and|fe called a veiy me handsome fliip, rather longer than the Mars, and ij ports on each deck. - ’ , f “ It is iuppoled they had killed arid wounded 350 men; bearing, at the time of the action, Bbc du Raz n. 1-4 f.. two miles, Grand Qpmet Rock (Saints) one mile, ana the 3teveut-Rock n. fix, w-. tliree miles; wind e. n. e. Under thtie circumstances I will leave you to judge.of the merit and bravery of the attack. The lituation prelentcd lliip -.vreck or victory. I have sincerely to lament the Id’s of my friend Capt. Hood; he was wounded on the quarteideck oy v mulket bail, in the femorai artery in the rignt thigh, about a quarter of an hour before the enemy llruck, and expired n the cockpit with the Frenchman’s iword in his hand. Any praise or encomiums on his coolnt is and bravery cn this occaiion would fall fliort cf his deserts: I can only fay, that in his death tlie victory was dearly bought. I’fie coun try lias differed in him the loss ot a lintere end firm friend, i gaflant officer, and we an amiable ana worthy commander, who is moit uni verbally lamented-. From the Jatelf il. lb.i na tion I find there were in the Mars 16 killed, 6 iince dead, 1 milfing, [fuppofed to have fallen between the two Hups in attempting to board the enemy, to exlinguiih the fire] and -9 wounded; total 89. Moft of the wounded are in 2 b*ir way of recovery. Capt. Joleph White, of the marines, was killed on the poop; Lieuts. Argles and Ford wounded, t.nd afo a Mr. Southey, a Midfliipman. Our rigging and fails much damaged; tliere is not a main fliroud purled; :he bremafl #uch wounded; jib boom carried away; in .hort the*appeai*ance of both Ihips is diilreffing. The fleet vere to ieeward of us when we chafed about 5 or 6 miles, the land about the’.Saints in light. From our superior fad ng 10 Tip of the fleet could keep company, consequently we received no afliftance till the next morning, which I inure vou we were in much need of. I-believe the above are be principal occurrences, ar.d I trtift they will enable you- a have an idea of the combat, which from the danger ous fituatioTi, and being in the might, its equal, in my o. pinion, is noton record in otir naval history.” May 3. At 12 o’clock on Tutfday the remains of the late gallant Capt. Hood \va3 brought on fliore at Plymouth, for the purnofe of being conveyed to his place of rtlidence n Somiertlhire, there to be interred. The corpse on ia being landed was met by all the Captains and other officers of n* Majesty’s fl.ips at Plymouth, and a Field Officer’* niard of marines, when a proceflion was formed in tlie fol lowing onion Field Officer’s guard, composed of marines; music play ing the dead march in Saul; Englilh colors under which the Vlars fought; Clerg; men and Surgeons; two Captains of the navy as chief mourners; CORPSE, and fix Captains as nail iiearers; Officers of tlie Mars; Captains of the Royal navy; Generals; Officers of the army off duty; colors of the enemy trailing on the* ground. - The whole proceeded through the principal streets, lined jv all the trr.ops in the garrison.
