The frigate was beat in, and took shelter under lee of a British frigate and thus put an end to the action. Brown arrived at Buenos Ayres slightly injured.

squadron. The Imperatrice drew his attention, and he gave it to her. Old Lobos, with hU squadron, slipped their cables and stood up the river. We weighed anchor and stood down a short distance, to get out of reach of the shot. The action continued one hour and forty minutes. At this time Lobos was streaking off as fast as canvass could carry him. Brown hauled olT and stood up the river with little damage ; it is said that Brown afterwards took some small vessels. I went on board the Imperatrice in the morning and took a survey as I pulled round. She was very much cut in the hull, riggiMg Sc spars. The commanding officer inform cd me that the captain was killed, and 3 men, and eight wounded, but there must have been one hundred killed aiuf wounded at least. Four days after the blockading squadron came down and anchored at sunrise. BroWn was discovered with his little squadron. The Admiral made a signal ; all got under way, the two frigates including, made sail and stood for Brown, tvho, " went about" and stood up the river. An action commenced between Brown's single ship and a frigate, which

was relieved by the squadron. Brown made off. What I have related are facts ; what I have not been an eye witness to, I have rc ceived from men of undoubted veracity. At the time Brown attacked the Imperatrice, she had three hundred soldiers on board " When Lobos is asked why he does not engage Brown, he says, Brown has long guns, and therefore the advantage.
