He made his escape, after firing the train by swim- ming. OFFICIAL ACCOUNT. Letter from Capt. C. Morris to the Sea ^y of the navy. Sir, Portland Sept. 8, 1814. It is with regret that I inform you, we were compel...led to destroy the Adams. , at Hamden, on the morning of the 3d inst. To prevent her falling into the hands of the enemy. All the ofiicers effected their escape, and I believe the crewj with the exception of a very few, who were unable to travel. Their precise number cannot be ascertained, as we were obliged to pursue different routs, for the purpose of obtaining provisions, through the woods between the Penobscot and Kennebcck.
