LONDON GAZETTE EXTRAORDINARY, October 2, 1798* Admiralty Office , Oclobef- 2, 1798* The lion. Capt. Capd, of his Majesty’s (loop Mutine, arrived this morning with difpatchcs from Rear Admiral Sir Horatio Nellon, K. B. to Evan Nepean, Eiq. Secre tary, of tlie Admiralty, of which the following are copies. Sir, Vanguard, Mouth cf tbe Nile, Augufi 7. Herewith I have the honor to tranlinit you a copy of my ■ letter to the Earl of St. Vincent, together with a line of battle of the Engliih and French squadrons, also a lift of f killed and wounded* I have the pleasure to inform you that 8 of our (hips have already top gallant yards across, and ready for any fervicc; the others, with prizes, will loon be ready for sea. In an event of this importance I have thought it right to fend Capt. Capel with a copy of my letter (to the Commander in chief) over land, which I hope their Lordlhips will approve, and beg leave to refer them to Capt. Capel, wlito is a moft excellent officer, and fully able to give every Information, and I beg leave to recommend him. to their iordthips notice. I am, &c. , j Horatio Nelson. P. S. The island I have taken pofleflion of, and brought off the two 13 inch mortars, all the brass guns, and de ft royed the iron ones. 1 Vanguard, off tbe Moytb of tbe Nile-, Augufi 3,1798. My Lord, Almighty God has blefed his Majesty’s arms, in the late battle, by a great viefrry over the fleet es the enemy, whom 1 attacked at frnlet on the ift of Augufi off the Mouth of the Nile. The enemy were moored in a strong line of battle for defending the entrance of the Bay, (of (hoals) flanked by munertuis gun boats, four frigates, and a battery of guns and mortars on an island in their van; but nothing could withstand the squadron yoflf Lotdfhip did me the honor to place under my commandi Their high state of diicipline is well known to you, and with the judg ment of the Captains, together with their valor, and that of the officers and men of every delcription, is ablolutely irresistible, Could any thing from my pen add to the fcliara<flers of tM Captains I woulfl Write it with pleasure, but that is impofiible. I have, to regret th* loss of Capt. Weftcott of the Ma jeftick, who was killed early in tlie action; but the fliip was continued to be so well fought by her firll Lieutenant, Mr. Cutlibert, that I have given him an order to command her till yout Lord (hip’s pleasure is known. The (hips of the enemy, all but their two rear fliips, are all nearly difmafted; and thoie two, with two frigates, I am sorry to fay, made their escape; nor was it, I allure you, in my power to prevent them. Capt. Hood ni'oft handsomely endeavored to do it; but I had no Ihip in a condition td support the Zealous, and I was obliged to call her in. The support arid afiiftahce I have received from Capt. Berry cannot be fuffieientlv exprefled. I was wounded in the bead, and obliged to lie carried off the deck; but the fervlce differed 110 loss by that event.- Capt. Berry was fully equal to the important service then going on, and to him I mult beg leave to refer you for every information relative to the victory. He will prelent you with the flag of the second in command, that of the Commander in chief being'burnt in the L’Oriertt. Herewith 1 tranunit you lifts of the killed and wounded, and the lines of battle of ourlelves and the French. I have the hortcr to be, ftt. - Horatio Nelson. LINE OF BATTLE. 1. Cull odea, T.
