Capt. Tingeyreturned the following manly and noble answer: A public ship carries protection for her men but her flag do not expect to succeed in contest with you, but will die at my quarters before man shall be taken from the ship:D The crew gave three hearty cheers, hastened with aacrity to their quarters and called for Yankee Doodle. The captain Of tho Sur prse on hearing of the determination of the Yankees, chose rather to pursue his course than to do battle for dead men.-Boston Jour.
