Besides the action at Ekenass there has been a partial

attack upon Gus- tafinarn, chiefly to try the range of the guns of the ships. It is obvious from the reports that the British have the longer range. In this attack, the Ilecla, the Magicienne, and the Dragon, were engaged. The Dragon, 6, Captain Wilcox, has also performed a little exploit of its own. During a cruise she reconnoitered Revel, and seeing two of the enemy's vessels at anchor under the batteries, she determined to have them. Captain Wil- cox took up such a position that the guns of the fortress could not be brought to bear upon him. Shot after shot was fired by the enemy, but each fell wide of its mark. In a short time the two vessels were taken, and were towed into Hang° Bay by the Dragon on the next morning.
