Robert Hatch, severely. This brave man fell at the helm exhorticg those oroundhimto take god aim at tne enemy. I hope his good conduct will entitle him to your notice. It is impossible td ascertain what loss the enemy sustained ; but from suddmhr ceasr-g lift; from. the j two large launches, and tne other boats Jj ining them immediately! aim in- mied to believe they su tic red severely, js the sehr. g;ounded, and they did not renew the .action.
