We failed from Portfmouth on the 3d, as you may remember. At two o'clock the next morning we made Portland Lights, dif. tent about four leagues—we afterwards fteered a weft courfe un til eight o'clock, then weft by fouth half fouth. At eight at night It began to blow hard ; and, from being under all fail, we reduced to dufe reefed fore and main topfails, and got down top 'gallant yard., ; blatant, at this time, by oar reckoning, bore S. S. W. half W. 16 leagues. I lett orders in writing to haul to the Northward, the wind being E. N. E when the (hip had ran ten leagues, which 1 thought a good potation to join Admiral Sir James Saumarez in the morning. At eleven, Lieutenant Apreece awoke me to fay it blew harder, on welch I etdered the (hip to he brought to the wind on the ttartmard tack, and the fore toptail to be taken in— he had hardly got out of the cabin before the (truck—every body was on deck in an inftant, fails were clewed up, and the anchors let goe-we rode a little while until the parted from her anchors, and was driven on the rock!. 'the night was dreadfully dark and old, and there was no polDbility of diferireinating whether the rocks were diflarn from the land or eonneded with the more— however happily it proved the latter. I immediately ordered the malts to be cut away, and recommended the officers and men to Illy by me and the lip to the laft ; a few hands got into the quarter boats, and they were no fooner on the water than they were dafhed to pieces—it was about high water, and while the tide flowed the (hip lay tolerably eery until it began to fall, when molt tremendous breakers covered us. I remained by the eeheel nun! the divided amid-flips and fell over feaward. The crew were all on the fide, and hauled me up to them—it was pleating to ob ferve the attention they paid me to the salt, and now they Carers me a; their father. We lay in this Rate about three hours, when the water left the wreck fuffieient for us to attempt a landing, and, with the exception of a few, 'got fate on more, and affembled un des a rock, when three cheers were given to the remains of the poor dear Blanche. At day light, not two pieces of wood were !el together, and the malts were [battered into Shivers. Nothing was laved, and we make a molt Shabby appearance. A calk of rum W.ll the only thing found on the More, and after I was carried to a cottage, fume were fo impredent as to broach it, by which about fifteen died. It is not pc:able to afcertain our exalt lots, but Should think fortrfive, twenty of whom were marines. All the officers ate raved. Mr. Goodhew, paffenger, died through fear-- we landed on a !hocking coat, but every attention potable was paid to us. We have already been muched about thirty miles, and arc now at Breft, which is a heaven to all hands, as they are molt comfortably lodged and fed in the Navy Hofpital. lam at pre fect at the houfe of the Commander in Chief, Mont Ceffor-Ili, a perfedt Gentleman.
