THE ENEMY'S FLEET.
Baltimore, April 15.
Capt. Crandle left west river yesterday, when he got into the bay he
found the seven close after, and as
they out sailed him he had to use his sweeps, when off Magothy river or a
little above, the British were off Annapolis.
He passed the Bodkin (mouth of the Patapsco) about 8 o'clock in the
evening. The last he saw of the British,
they were under sail; so it was uncertain to him whether they intended come off
Annapolis, or proceed higher up the bay. - Gazette.[1]
