HALIFAX, July 7.
His majesty's ship of war Columbine,
captain Bradshaw, arrived here on Saturday
last from the Chesapeake, after a passage of
6 days, with dispatches to the honorable
vice-admiral Berkeley. These dispatches
relate to an unpleasant contest which has
taken place between the U. S. frigate Ches-
apeake, commodore Barron, and his majestv's
ship Leopard, captain Humphreys. As this
is an event of the utmost importance to two
nations, whose best interest it is to be in
amity with each other, we have endeavored
to collect .as far as possible the interesting
particulars. The order of viee-admiral
Berkeley, with which we have been favored,
will shew the ground of difference ; the
propriety of the order given, and that part
of the order which gave to commodore Bar-
ron the reciprocal right of search, must, shew
to every candid mind a sincere disposition
to avoid wounding the feelings of the com-
modore, or of bringing the question to this
painful issue.
The manner in which captain Humphreys
carried into effect the admiral's order, will
fully appear in the subsequent interesting
letter from an officer belonging to the L4 friend.

Different reports from the Mediterranean

sary and that they are 11 depart immediate-.

SEVENTY-FIFTH BULLETIN
OF THE GRAND ARMY.
FwkbwstbjN, May 18.
The folio win rare the details of the 15th ;
The 1 crlr. After 2 in the morning, ge-
neral Schramm was in motion, covered by
the redoubt) constructed near the fort Wcis-
ehelmunde. He had the Polish troops en
his left, th: Saxons^ in his centre, the 121b
regimefllof light infantry, on his right,and
the regiment of Paris for a reserve.
The Ru^ian leiufenant general Kameh-
ski sailed from the fort at day break, after
an action, of two horns the arrival of the
12th regiment of light-infantry which mar,
-hal Lefehvre sent to.the left bank, and a
S.ixon battaiion decided the affair. Of the
brigade of Oudinot only a single battalion
c old engage.
Th" xcz Sax-ns'gave way, an extraordina-
ry circumstance^ and which must be the re-
sult of soriis machinations ; for the Saxon
troops since they were joined with the
Pvench, have always conducted themselves
with bravery ; this unlookcd for circum-
stance put the 1st regiment of the Bavari-
rian line in a critical situation—it lost 150
men who were made prisoners and beat a
retreat which, nevertheless was conducted
without disorder. The a.iewiy retodt
vikm-e of Couth.
Onr loss has been trifling, a polish colo-
nel, M. Paris was killed.—the loss of the
enemy is more than we thought; 900 Rus-
sian soldiers have been interred ; the loss
of the enemy cannot be lessthan 2500 mcn._
At present the enemy does not move but
appear extremely circumspect behind their
fortifications. Fourteen boats have sailed
loaded with wounded men.
On the 14th a division of 5000 men,
Rsssians and Prussians, but chiefly Prussi-
ans from Konigsberg landed at Pillau on
a neck of land called the Nehrum*. and ar
rived at Rahlberg before our advanced posts
of the guard of li ht cavalry, who fell
back towards Tnrtenswerden.
The enemy approached towards the ex-
tremity of the Frelsch haff ; we expected
to see them penetrate that way to Dantzic.
A bridge thrown over the Vistula at Pus-
tens order facilitated the passage of the in-
fantry cantoned in the isle of Nogat to file
in the rear of the enemy—but the Prussians
were better advised and dare not venture.
The emperor gave orders to general Beau-
m nt aid de-camp to the grand duke of
Berg, to attack them on the 16th at 2 in the
morning. The general proceeded with
the genreal of brigade Albert at the heVd of the
battalion of grenadiers of reserve, the 3d
and nth regiment of chasseurs, and one
briga !e of dragoons. He encountered the
enemy bet ¦ een Passtnnulev and Stege.
At d.,y break attacked; overturned and pur-
sued them, sv ord in hand for n leagues—
took itoo men, killed a great number and
sc.zed upon four preces ot cannon.
The 3d and 11th regiments of chassenres
charged with the greatest intrepidity. We
have had a captain of the 3d regiment and
c or 6 men killed, and 8 or 10 wounded.
Two brigs of the enemy which came on the
¦ iff, came to harross us—a shell which
burst on the deck of one of them, made
{'¦¦¦ m jump overboaid. Thus since the 12th
the enemy at different points has sustained
considerable loss. The emperor received
on the ,17th the fusiieerj of the guard which
arc encamped at the castle of FinToenslcin,
in as goad barracks as those of Bo!-> ;nct
On tire (Hand 191!-. all the guard will be
encamped in the same place.
The I2ih, prince Jerome learning that a
column of 3000 men had sorticd From Gl
to surprise Breslau, he sent gen. Eefebvre
with the firs! regiment of the Bavarian line,
an excellent re/irncnt, 100 horse and a de-
tachment of 700 Sax 11s. Gen. Lefebvre
attacked the rear the 14th, at 41:1 the morn-
ing the village of Couth, he attacked also '
and carried it at the point of the bayonet,
and made 150 prisoners-
One hundred of tire king of Bavaria's
light-horr-e cut to pieces the cavalry ot' ti,...
enemy 500 strong, and dispersed them j
nevertheless the enemy p-aced themselves
in line of battle and made resistance.
At I! in tire foienoon. gen. Dummy, who
went Lorn Bre.-lau, at the head of a thru-
sand French Dragoons, Chasseurs and hu -
sars on foot, who had been scut from Si-lesii
to be mounted, and of which a pait already
were, attacked the enemy in the rear-
500 hussars on Foot carried thevillagei fCouet
atthepoint of the bayonet, made 100 prison*
ers. & retook all the Bavarians ¦ ho had bsen
made prisoners. The enemy to reente :
Glatz with more fac'ieihy separated in two
columns; gen. Lefebvre, who left Schcwei-
dnitz, the 15th, fell upon one of those co-
luiiii-is, killed 100 men, and made 300 priso-
ner;, 50 of which were officers.
The second column of the enemy sought
to gain Glatz by Silberberg ,• lieutenant col.
Due mdr&is, aid-dc-camp to the prince,,
encountered and put them to flight. Thus
the column of from 3 to 400 men, which
left Glalz, could not re-enter ; they have
all been killed, wounded or taken priso-
ners.
SEVENTY-S1XTH~BULLETIN OF
THE GRANG ARMY.
Fill. I .'-'( '.-.
A beautiful English sloop of war, copper- ¦
cd, carrying 24 guns and 120 men, & load-
ed with powder and bulk-ts, appeared !."- fV'fe
the city of Dantzick. When arrived in the
midst of our wprks, she vv£(s ast-aded by a
bi isk santtonade from both shore ;, and oblig-
ed to strike. A pique, of men horn ti,e
Puis ri ire the first wli 1 Leap
board. An aid de-camp-of gen. Kalrcuth
bom the Pvussiaas head quarters, b'i
a officers were taken on hoard.
The sloop of war is called the Fearless, In-
d.ioly of tire 120 English, there ware
60 Russians in this vessel.
The loss o( the enemy at the battle of
Weichselmnnde on the 15111, was greater
th n !.i!;-.o.o-a-.!, a whole Russian column
which extended along the sea, was put to
the bayonet. Arc -rding to our account we
have buried 1300 Russian dead b -
The 6th, a division of ¦7000 Prussians,
commanded by genera] Tuckows, marched
from Brok, or, ths Bag, on Pultusk, to
oppose itself to the new works \fhich had
been ordered to rem' he brig-
ade more respectable. Thc-c Works
defended by six battalions of Bavarians^
commanded by tile Prince Roval of Bava-
1 ia. The enemy m;i In all, I.
they wete repulsed by the Bavarians, ami
. tely cut to pieces by the different
I the loss
of the enemy at three hundred killed and
ci ruble that wounded. What renders this,
affair more briiKant is,' that the Bavarians
had 4000 men less.
The prince R yal bestows particular
praise on Baron do. Wfreaen, a genera] &.-
ficer in the service uf Bavaria and of tiis-
The loss of the Bavarians was 15 men
killed and 1 50 wounded.
There was as much absurdity in the at-
tack on the w.rks of gen. Lemarrois on » -
13th, and in the attack of the 16th on Pul-
tusk, as there was six weeks ago in the con-
struction of the great number of rafts which
the enemy threw up on the Bug. Ths re-
sult has been, that those rafts which cost 6
«ceks labor, were burnt in 2 hours, when-
ever we felt disposed to do so, and that
those successive attacks against til de-
fended works, and sustained by good bat-
teries, caused them great losses, without any
hopes cf profit.
It would appear that the objeet of these
assurances was to chaw the attention of ths
French army towards the.r right ; but
the positions of the Frer.ch
fensive as well as offensive, are well-
grounded in all their bases and in all their
hypotheses.
During all this time, the interesting siege
of Dantzic continues to go on. The ene-
my will experience, a very serious injury in
losing this important place, and the aocr.
men which are shut up therein. A mi
was sprung on Blaekhousen, which caused
it to blow up. We opened on the road co-
vered by four decoys, and executed the de-
scent of the ditch.
