U. S. Frigate Constitution
Off Boston Aug. 30, i8l».
SIR —Ihave the honor to
inform you that on the 19th
inst. 2 p. M- being in lat.
41, 42, and long. 55, 4S,
' with the condbution under
my command, a lail was
dilcovered fiom the maft
| head baring e. by s. or e. s.
E . but at such a distance we
| could not tell what Hie
| was- All fail was instantly
made in chafe, and soon
fouwd wc came up with her.
At 3 ?. M. could plainly
fee that (he was a lhip on
.the (larboard rack under ea(y
(ail, dole on a wind j at halt
pall 3 p. m. made her out
to be a frigate ; continued
the chalc until we were
within about 3 miles, when
I ordered the light fails ta-

ken in, the courfe* hauled
up, and the tbip cleared for
action. At this time the I
chafe had backed her main
top-fails waiting ter us to
come down. As soon as ;
the Constitution was ready i
for action, 1 bore down j
with an intention of bring
ing him to close action im
mediately ; but on our com
! ing within gun lhot she
I gave us a braad side and fil
j led away, aid wore, giving
j us a broadsde on the other
tack, but without effect ;
her lhot falling thort. She ;
continued wearing and ma- ;
nooevering about three quar- 1
ters of an hour, to get a rak
ing position, ' but finding
ihe could not, flic bore up
and run under her top-fab,
and gib with the wind on
the quarter, f' 9 .mediately
made all fail to bring the
(hip up witty her, and 5
minutes bcfor«6 p. m. be
ing along fide within half
pitted shot wq commenced j
a heavy fire from all our
guns, double (hotted with
round and grape, and so
well directed were they,
and so warmly kept up, that
in 15 minutes his mizen»
malt went by the board and
his main yard in the (lings,
and the hull, and ;
fails very much toin to pic- I
ces* The fire was kept up
with equal warmth for 15
minutes longer when the
maimnaft and foremaft went,
taking with them every
(par, excepting the bow
lprit; on feeing this we
cea(ed firing, so in 30 min
utes after we got fairly a
long side the enemy lhe
furrendertd, and had not a
(par (landing, and her hull
below and above water so
1 i (battered, that a few more
broadsides mud have carried
her down.
After informing you that
j so fine a (hip kb the Guerric
| re, commanded by an able
and experienced officer, had
been totally dismafted, and
i otherwise cut to pieces so as
to make her not worth to
j wing into port, in the (hort
space of 30 minute:, you can
have no doubt of the gal
antry, ani good conduct of
the officers and (hips com
pany I have the honor t©
commaid ; it only remains
1 therefore for me to allure
you that they all faught
, with great bravery ; and it
gives me great plealure to
lay that from the fnrullcft
boy in the (hip to the ol
deit teamen not a look of
, fear was lcen. They all
went into action giving
three cheers, and requeuing
to be laid alongside the ene
my.
Enelofed I have the ho
nor to lend you a lilt of ihe
killed and wounded on
1
board the Constitution, and
a report of the damages lhe
has luftained, also a lift of
the killed and wounded on
board the enemy, with his
quarter bill, 6cc.

! BRIEF SUMMARY.
A pamphlet has appeared
in Bojion, entitled “ Wa fi
ington to the people of the
, United States.” We (hall
make some extracts to it.
A letter from Warren to
ijte pod-mailer at Pittsburg
by Cdvin Pcafe, styles gen.
| era! Hull “ a traitoi” the
m
No. 2c6
people were all under arms
and gone to Cleveland—
none left at home but the
women and children.
In the we Hern c ounties
ofPenfylvania allure volun
teering.
Col M’Arthur’s regiment
would not abide bythecapi
tulation, but were retreat
ing towards Ohio !
Mr. Gallatin** Circular \%
such a one as we expected,
Me purlues the text of the
law—and while lie tells us
the president has not ill’u
ed and means riot to ifl'ue his
Proclamation, he adds that
in all cases entitled to relief
the merchant may apply to
congress or the Treafiry
Department for remiflion
of the for feiturc.
Letters from officers in
Hull’s army, and others,
written before his capitula
tion to gentlemen in Ohio,
place the general in the in oft
unfavorable light* as a vain
man and an inert com
petent commander. It is
clear he is neither like Wil
kinson nor Wayne : Puj
yet we know not all the facts
of the case. His grcatefl
fault lies in crofling the
bounds with an inadequate
force, and he ought to have
known what was inadequate
to the capture of Malden.
Government have ilfued
orders for the rcleafe of all
Bi itifh priloners, when there
is any opportunity of con
veying them to a British
place, and any officer to
give receipt for them.
The lrgiflature of Con
necticut have voted to raise
for date service 2 regiments
of Infantry, 4 companies of
artillery, and 4 companies
cavalry ; to purchase 3000
Hand of arm?, and 8 held
pieces, and accept of volun
teer companies, to defend
1 the harbours.
On Wednesday laid arri
ved in to wn His Excellency
Andrew De Dafhakoof, mi
nister Plenipotentiary, of the
Emperor of Russia near the
U. States.
Though Apofdacy is to
be lemented we cannot but
smile at the manner in which
a man is sometimes made
the dupe of artful intriguers.
When De iVitt Clinton ,
visited Wafhmgton, during
the lull session, Lh manner
was remarkably courteous.
He had smile for one, a
prumife for a second, and a
claim for a relationship for
a third. lie told our wife
representative, that his
grandfather, Clinton, marri
ed aLe Fevre ; and the poor
man’s head was indnntly
turned. He was so tickled
with th* idea of having a
cousin Prdident of the Uni
ted Mates that lie has ever
since been a warm Clin;o-
