PAUL JONES.
(Conli.iueJ.) Ai there wjj only a twenty gun ship and two cutter v.x L'iUi It lad I deemed it practicable to lay those two places under cotitribulinn. I hal inleed 11.1 other force to execute
this project, than the Richard, the Pallas, and the Ve.igeance; hut well knew, that, in order to perform a brilliant action, it is not always
necessiry to possess great means. I therelore held out the prospect of great booty to the rap tains under my command; and, as to my sell. I was satisfied with the idea of making a diversion In favor of the count D'Orviliers, who was then in the channel.
I now distributed red clothes to mr men.
and put some of them on board the prizes, so a to give them the appearance of transports full of troops. All the necessary arrangements were also taken lo carry the enterprise into execution; but, about a quarter of an hour be
fore the descent was to have been made, a
sudden tempest arose, and drove me out of the Forth, or Edinburgh Frith, and so violent was the storm that one of my pri.is was lost. This did not, however, deter me, nouvith standing ihe sma'Sness of my forces, from form ing different enterprises of a similar nature;
but I con! J not induce the captains of the Pul
and ierveJ the two puna nest to the enemy , with surprising courage aiid address. A shoil time after this, I received sufficient assistance 10 be able to remove one of the forecastle guns
from the opposite mdcjbul we had not the strength sufficient to remove the other, so that
we could only bting three guns lo bear upon
the enemy during the remainder of Ihe action. The moon, which, as I have alieady obser
ved, rose al eight, beheld the two vessel sur
rounded by flame, in consequence of the explo
sion of the cannon. It so happened at this period, lhat the mainmast of the Serapis, which
was Dainted vellow. appeared extremely dis
tinct, so as to form an excellenntiarl-; oni'HEAPNESS. ELEGANCE AN I I pointed one of my gun atfo,' - , "VENUE COMBINED!

they were driven from their quarters, notwith
standing their superiority in point of men and

The captain of Ihe Serapis. af:er consulting
with his officers, resolved to strike; but an tin
lucky arciden'. which occurred on board the
Richard, prevented this: a I ullet having iles
