WEST-INDIA CONVOY.
WEST-INDIA CONVOY. The following is an extract of a. letter from an officer õf his Majesty's ship Carysfort, dated off Oporto, April 2, 1804:— His Majesty's ships Apollo andCaryfort sailed from Cork, Oil uit. with a convoy of 67 sail fur the West- Indies, to which destination the former ship was directed to escort theui, and the latter to a certain latitude. 1. A gale of wind took place on the night we left Cork, aud continued during the enwiug day; the convoy was, however, kept snug and collected, and proceeded wiLh a most proitusiug appearance of a pleasant passage, until the very night of the unforeseen and utterly unexpected disas- ter j a disaster whose occurrence caii only be ascribed' to the s, tring of a currertt to the eastward, which carried the convoy into the longitude of Oporto, when, by their reckon- ing (r. \:ing that of nine in ten of the ships composing it), tfiey were more than one hundred miles to the westward thereof; trusting to which reckoning, a course was steered by the Apollo, (the Commodore), and the majority of the convoy, calculated to clear Cape St. ihcerit; but between cue aud three this morning, melanchely to retatc/tht- Apollo and jive or six and twenty of the convoy went oh shore, an end near Cape Mondego. Whether all the ships are lost, and their crews have perished, I cannot inform you but I trust the Almighty will have rescued from the waves, and restored to their families and friends, the greater part, if not tlie whole, of the valuable lives, so unexpectedly, I be,- lieve 1 may say unprccedently, shipwrecked. The Carysfort having split her main and fore-top sails about midnight in a most violent squall, and the wind soon after ht:ading her three or four points, wore, in order to get her head oti" shore, about two o'clock in the morning; but', i observing that the Commodore and body of the convoy were out of sight, she again stood towards the shore till about six o'clock, wlien perceiving several scattered ships under a press of sail, with their heads to the northward, she again wore oil shore, and about nine o'clock hailed one of the convoy, which with difficulty had cleared the land, and reported seeing one or two sail on shore. At eleven o'clock, the Clarendon of Bristol, reported her having seen 2<» sail onshore (mostly dismasted), among which she fear- ed was the Commodore, the last certain sight of whom she had, was ahgut three in the morning, then burning false fires, blue lights, and filing guns in the direction the ships were (at day-liglit) seen on shore. She herself very narrow- ly escaped shipwreck, having actually been among the breakers, w hen she most providentially wore. The wind still continuing dead on shore, strong apprehensions were entotainedthat, as it blew very hard, several ships which escaped in the night must have been driven on shore in thecour-eofthe day by carrying all possible sail they, however, held their course, and toward* evening the wind JiiosS providentially shitted to the northward, Vhieh ena- bled the Carvsfort to collect J3 sail, wherewitit she is now proceedini: to their place of destination. [ shad forbear nulling auy comments on this lamenta- ble eient, farther than uotlliug ctJlllct exceed the zeal and attention of C'aptai.is Dixon aud Fanahawe, in keeping their eouvoy together; and the promptitude and celerity wherewith Captain Fanshawe collected the scattered ships ■which were saved, and proceeded with them towards the places of their destination, merits unqualified approbation aud will, 1 am pursuaded, receive from the owners and miderwriters, their most cordial and justly due thanks. East-Indies.—Marquis W elleslev, iu his report to the Directors of the Rust-India Company, explains the neces- sities which guve rise to the war with bcindiah and the Rajah in hi? alliance--the forces, on both lv'til which ititas been carried on-anti the ultimate ciVects which arc likely to ensue, from the extraordinary successes of tite British ami. The war seems to 'be, oil our part, just; because it U nits to vindicate the authority of the Peishwa, the lawful thief of the Mahratta Coniederary, and rescue? the Repre- sentatives of the Mogul tinperor, with several other lawful Princes, from ft state rf aljerr oppression :—it was expe- dient; for, the power of Scinduh was increasing to a degree of strength, which must soon have endangered the prospe- rityot')itt'bfjt:h, power .and trade in India; and, by the nrlJldler 01. French oJlieers taken prisoners in the diÙ"crellt vic- tories over Sciudiah's troops, it appears that the intrigue^ of the Consular Government had raised up ill that Chief air ad- versary to the British power, whom France might have as- sisted to its overthrow, if he had not been thus vigilantly crushed on his tirst efforts. Alter such a progress through the enemy's country, the capture of so many of their for- tresses, the destruction ofsncii numbers of their troops, after a series of uuptfciRcd• success, ill short, which h'.vt* scarce left them confidence to tuce our forces in the field, or even to stand th<;ir live under shelter, we may ■reasonably antici- pate the submission of Scindiab and his "Ilies iu the treaty of peace, which has, at their humble reqncNt, begun to be negociated. The noble Marquis justly observts, that in the contest, which inay.now.be considered as terminated, British courage was never more conspicu- ously displayed. Of the brilliant successes of our arms, he speaks in terms of the utmost enthusiasm, and regards our victories as outrival!:ng those which distinguished the career of Alexander the Great In India.—The Governor- General's report. contains the following interesting incidents, which happened in the battle of Nov. 'Jl, at Cassowly :— On this day two horses were killed under the Commander in ^Ehief, -Gen* Lake. The shot showered around him in every direction; in the midst of the danger and slaughter which surrouudod him, he displayed not only the most re- solute fortitude and .ardent valour, but the utmost degree ofprotessionai ability and knowledge, availing himself with admirable promptitude, "of every advantage presented by the eiieLijiN, and trastratmg every attempt of the enemy's obstinacy aud boldness, ilis masterly plans of attack dur- illg the a tion were carried into instantaneous execution by hi-, unrivalled personal activity, and he appeared with IlllatdJkss courage and alacrity hi front of every principal charge, which he had planned with, eminent judgment and skill. The staff of the army distiugtushcd themselves great- ly, and merit the highest commendation. Among these, one of the mwt distinguished was Major G. A. F. Lake, of his Majesty's 94^1 regiment, son of the Commander in (Jliief, who had attended his lather it., the capacity of aid- de-camp, and military secretary, throughout the whole cam- paigu, and whose gallantry and activity in executing his lather's jorders.had been con.spicuous, in every aervicc of difficulty and danger. This promising young officer con- stantly attended his father's person, and possessed the high- est place in his confidence aud esteem. In* the heat of the action the General's horse, pierced by several shot, fell ■ dead under him. Major Lake, who was oil horseback close: to his futiier, dismounted, and offered his horse to him; !he refused, but the Major's earnest" solicitation prcvailed.- The Commander in Chief mounted his son's horse, and the latter mounted a horse from one of the troops of cavalry. In a moment a shot struck Major Lake, and wounded him; severely, in the presence of his father. At this instant the Commander in Chief found it necessary to lead the troops against the enemy, and leave his wounded son iipon the, field. A more affecting scene never -was presented to the imagination, nor has Providence exposed human fortitude to a more severe trial. General Lake;, in this dreadful and distracting moment, prosecuted Tus victory with unabated 1-1 e ardour; and at the close of the battle had the satisfaction to learn that his son's wound, though extremely severe, was not likely to prove dangerous. A confident hope is 'now entertained that this gallant aud promising young officer will be preserved, to enhance the joy of his father's triumph, and to serve his King andcoutftry with hereditary honour." The official returns of the artillery, &c. fas far as at pre- sent can be collected, taken in India, amount to 713 pieces of ordnance, exclusive of tumbrils, stores, &c. The trea- sure divided on the field IsrcportCtt to be immense. General Lake's portion of the booty taken in the pur- est gold, at the single town of Agra, amounts to 36,0001. Colonel St. Leger's to 4,0001. and every Cftptaiu who served on that day to 2,0001. each. In Conseqilence of the new arrangements in contemph- tion of the Supreme Government in ludia, the city of Alla- habad, from its advantageous situatton at the confluence- of the Ganges and JumrH, witi become the grand emporium of the ceded provinces. The spirit of insubordination that lately rrtenifesttd it- self in many of the provinces of China, still continues to exist, and seems, at no very distant period, to threaten a Revolution in that ancient and eutensive Empire. By the Leyden Gazette we find that General Soult, the Commander iu Chief of the grand French army assembled at Bruges, has ventured in bis general orders, to charge- this country-with sending for bales of cotton from the Le- vant, which were infected by the plague, and throwing p them upon the coast of France. This infamous falsehood he has ordered all the Priests in that district to proclaim at the time of divine service, and the Magistrates to make it as public as possible. But we will venture to say, that al- though the French Government may choose to order its Clergy to proclaim from the altar that the English people are capable of the crime imputed to them, their congrega- tions will hot believe them. A property tax of 19 per cent, has Keen imposed in1 Denmark, to aid in the measures of defence, which the con- duct of France-has reiidere(i Accessary. A letter from Jamaica, dated t'jth .March, gives a most distressing account of the state of ;pt. Domingo. It says, Titc negroes of St. Domingo, in imitation of the French, have plunged into all kinds of disorder. They have mur- dered almost all the whites, and have saved only a few phy- sicians, surgeons, labourers, and American factors. They have taken as many while women as they thought fit, as servants; the rest they employ naked in the public works,"or take by force those they pit-ase M wives." General Dessalincs has published adecree in St. Domin- go, which may be said to proceed from the genuine and btended principtes of policy and humanity. The Gover- nor General, considering that a great number of native blacks and men of colour are suffering in the United States of America, for w-ant of the means of returning; decrees, that there shall be allowed to the Captains of American vessels the sum of 40 dollars for each individual they, may ,11 restore to this country." A rich Swedish vessel, with its cargo, from England to 11 Touningen, has been stopped by the French at Cuxhavcn, and the cargo confiscated. On the 16th of February, Commodore Priblc, command- ing the United States frigate, made an attack in the middle of the night, with,his boats, on the late Ameiycan frigate the Philadelphia, lying in the harbour of Tripoli, fully manned, and ready for sea. They completely carried the frigate in a few minutes, killing about 40 of the crew, ""and driving the rest overboard, or into their boats; after which they set her on lite, and completely destroyed her, having only one man wounded in the gallant action. i The Comet, that was taken going to India, is still in Fer- rol dollars, and this money had been promised, by the French Consul to be paid to the French seamen, in part of their arrears. Unluckily the American had been told by some of our officers, that we do not admtt t!te Jegatity of her condemnation in the Consular Court, arid that if she attempts to sail she will be stopped,, and, returned to her original, owners, they paying salvage. In consequence of which the American has slop- ped payment for this ship, and the Frenchmen will lose their money. Arlan is said to have been submitted to Government for blockading the ,harbo\i> of Boulogne through the sum- mer months, in such an effectual manner, as to render it itn- possible for the enemy's flotilla to put to sea. unprotected by a fleet. THE STONE EXPEDITION. BertutrJiS from, the Monitx.ur, oj April r. This celebrated expedition, so much boasted of by the English, of twenty-throe huge vessels full of stones, has at length appeared before Boulogne it was contented, how- e ver, to remain at the distance of two leagues and a hall off', and disappeared the next day. If the .project of the Eng-. lisb is roally to sink a great many ship-loads of stones in tlie roads, they will be doing us an essential service, in giv- ing us the foundation for a tort, which might then be built out in the sea; but can hardly be conceiv ed that schemes so absurd can be any thing but the .inventions of the J our- nals, as Earl St. Vincent, the First Lord of the Admiralty, has too much experience to sacrifice men in so absurd^a project. This recalls to our recollection that, *t the siege )i le of Toulon, many popular societies of the South proposed a plan equally extravagant, that of sinking all the merchant vessels -of .Marseilles in the passage of the harbour of Tou- lon, so as effectually to shut up the Eugliiih in .the latter harbour." The Commanders of our blockading squadrons will, per- haps, be yext implicated in the alledged conspiracies agiwnst France, for daring to infringe upon her rights and liberties, and imprisoning, against the law of factions, a Jrcc people. The House of Assembly, in Jamaica, have voted to the Duke of Clarence a. superb service of platfc, value 3000 guineas, for his ltoyul llighness's attention to the commei- .Ciniinterestsofthatistand. Central Pichegru fortunately left all his papers in Eng- land properly arranged for publication, before he embark- ed on hm unsuccessful expedition against theCousular ty- ,ai rant. A monument haa been erected at Copenhagen, to the memory of those that fell on the 2d of April, 11,01, with the names of the different officers killed on that day inscrib- ed thercou, and sundry mottos. It is ornamented by a plantation, of poplars. The Lords of the Admiralty have directed that twenty shillings shall be given to the respective gangs, throughout the united kingdom, employed on the impress service, for every seaman they may procure, which is as a further ClJ- couragement to thClll to use every exertion in that duty. Lord Hood's share of th«s sum voted by Parliament, on account of the captures at Toulon, is now said not to ex- ceed 17,0001. According to an account presented to the House of Com- mons, the total amount of the permanent tuxes, on the btli of January last, was 35,843,5081. 13s. 7d. The probable annual produce of the duties imposed on the profits arising from property, professions, trades, and oflices, is estimated at 4,800,0001. The amount of the duties upon the export of British lipens from Great Britain, for the year ending the 5th of January, 1804, was 23,4701. as. The quantity of raw sllgarimported in tha year 1803, was 3,164,230 cwt. of which 1,680,269 ewt. was export- ed in a raw and refined state, making thCCOUSllfilplioll of this country amount to 1,483,960. cwt. the whole payin" a duty of 3,133,3821. 3s. 4d. ° • The quantity of wine imported from Portugal during the last year, was 27,682 tuns, 3 hogsheads, and 51 gallon?.

The Speaker of the House of Commons, Mr. Abbot, has just completed'what may justly be considered a natural ornament, being a series of the portraits of aU the Speakers from the earliest period to the present day. Seven of the volunteer corps of the metropolis, amount- ing to 5,000 men, were brigaded on Monday inityde-Park. The Duke of York was present, accompanied by his bro- thers the Dukes of Cambridge, Kent, and Cumberland, and attended by about 30 Generals and other officers. When the manumvrCs were gone through, his Royal Highness the Commander in Chief expressed- 'great satisfaction in observ- ing the high state of discipline to which each of the corps had arrived. The Bristol volunteer infantry were reviewer! on Tues- day by General Fisher, who expressed himself highly pleased with the discipline and conduct of the troops,— Sir John Jervis's ritlft corps were also inspected by the same officer, aud received a. similar compliment. The new coinage of crown-pieces, from dollars, is now going on with all possible dispatch, St Air. Bolton's mint, at So ho, hear Birmingham.

LONDON MARKETS. MARK-LANE, May 7. Our supply of Wheat for .this day's Market hM been chiefly from Kent.and Essex, aud the quantity not: large; since this day se'nnight, prices have declined about Is. per quarter on tlip- line sorts, and rather more on the ordinary. Bariey and Malt are dull, and, something lower. White and Grey Pease keep up their price, but Tick Beans are rather 'cheaper. Oats, and other articles, are without any material alteration. Flour still finds its way into the Meal- weiphcrs' fehtrns at.45s. per sack; but we hear of no sales at more than -135.

To sweeten the'Breath, cleanse the Mouth, preserve and whiten'tlie Teeth, cure Gum Boils, and remove all offen- sive Ulcerations, is recommended the AMBOYNA LOTION. The drug from which the Lotion is prejmed is peculiarly adapted tor all disorders of the Mouth, Teeth, and (tonis; it was lirst imported by a Gentleman of known character and fortune, who having experienced-its wonderful effects* introduced it lor the benefit of others.—While it cleanses the-Mouth of at! impure aii(t-tiinid iKtrtieles, it whitens Teeth, heals the Gums, and instantly sweetens the Breath. Nothing is so great, a drawback to beauty as bad teethrr» nothing more offensive than a fVefid breath. The Aujboyna Lotion, on the first- application, improves the former and removes the latter, vylnle by its antiputrescent uniTbalsamic qualities prevents decay, and removes all excrescences. The Auiboyiia Lotion is the greatest antiputrescent in the world, removes tiie"footii-;ICII, drawing from the sockt-tt of the teeth the acrimonious water which causesthe pain, removes thesponny excrescences, and prevents atiy farther decay it also .dissolves the tartar; and leaves the euamct perfectly smooth.. The Gentleman who imports the drng and prepares theyft articles, pledges himself to forfeit iOOOi. it any lady or gentleman using the Amboytia Powder and Lotion as di- rected, has the Tooth-ach or a Tooth decay. The nobility and gentry may rest assured they will not again experience disappointment, as arrangements have been made to ensure a constant supply bom abroad.
