The former vessel was employed under Commodore Nelson in 1796^[1]; the latter assisted at the capture of the San Leon, a Spanish brig of war, on the Lisbon station, Nov. 29, 1798^[2]; and the bombardment of Alexandria in 1799. We subsequently find him commanding the Carysfort of 28 guns, Dryad frigate, and Leviathan 74. The Dryad captured le Rennair, a French privateer of 14 guns and 96 men, on the Irish station, March 22, 1808.
