Wednesday last the Mary, of Dumbarton, was met with on the French coast by the CYANE, Capt. Cm.- LIER ) with a•signal of distress flying. Capt. COLLIER went on board, and found the vessel in the greatest distress. The severe .gales had blown all her sails away, and rendered her so.unman.ageable, that the crew, after using every effort,' became so exhausted, that they had lathed the hektn 2.lee, and given her up . to the mercy of the weather. One of the poor fell lows lay dead on the deck, worn out by fatigue. She had been seventeen days from Dublin, and was bound to London. The CYANE towed her into Portsmotah.

The Fame, HARVEY, from Bengal to London, has been taken by the Admiral Martin French privateer, retaken by the Mary privateer, of Plymouth, and car ried into Colic by the ROTA frigate. During a heavy gale on Sunday se'nnight the brig Rover, Thomas master, from Liverpool, for London, with sugar and staves, lost two anchors and cables, and drove on shore on Ryde Sand. We have much satisfaction in stating the arrivat of the Donegal, of 74 guns, Captain MaLcotata- and Revenge, of 74. guns, Captain NASN, on Saturday morning, from off Cherbourg, after lkving, 14 con, junction with the Diana, of 38, Captain GRANT I ,. aPd Niobe, Captain Loam, of the same force,' driven on shore two French frigates, which escaped - out of Fla vre, and which, if they may not be totally destroyect (as istextremely probable), are rendered of no rurther service to his Imperial Mikksty.—On Monday night lift, during the gale, they sailed from Haire with the intention of reaching Cherbourg, that port :ford ing facilities for escape which Havre does not. The Diana and Niobe being frigates (notwithstanding the very unfavourable state of the weather) close on their station, .got sight of them soon after midnight, and chafed ; but the wind shifting more to the northward, they were enabled, after receiving several broadside% to take shelter under Marcou. They 'weighed from thence the following day, and the tides preventing our frigates from approaching them, they that evening contrived to reach the anchorage of La Hogue. Finding, hawever, that our frigates intend ed to attack them on Wednesday, one of them ran on, 'the rocks of St. Vast, where she lies on her beam ends. The other ran into the shoal of St. Vast, between the 'batteries of La Hogue and.Tatihou. On Wednesday afternoon, the Donegal and Revenge, ships of the line, joined, and means were imniediately taken to 'attack the frigate that anchored in the shoal : it was impossible to reach the other ; indeed her loss seemed certain.—Accordingly, the whole of the ships (choos ing the most favourable time of tide) Stood as close in as they possibly could, and fired tlteir broadsides at her three several times. On the same night our ships again stood in, and threw rockets at her. On Thursday morning it was discovered that the object of their attack had also run aground near to her con. sort z and both frigates were left on their ,beam ends ,by the Donegal and Revenge on that day, watched by the Diana and Niobe. Unless they are got off, repaired, and make their escape from their present situation, before an easterly wind sets in (and this seems impossible), they will be totally lost: As every effort was made that skill and gallantry could suggest to effect their destruction, it must be expected that our ships have sustained some loss and damage. They sustained the tire of the batteries of La Hogue and Tatihou, and that of the enemy's ships, for a consi. derable time ; during which the Donegal had three men wounded, the Revenge seven wounded (two of them since dead), and the Diana and Niobe had each three men wounded. The names of the frigates are I'Amazon and l'Elize, of 44 guns each. Our ships suffered most in their masts and rigging. One unfor tunate shot (a 42-pounder) entered the lower deck of the Revenge, and actually took off five legs from three men, and wounded four others. The two poisr fellows who lost both their legs are since dead. The Done gal and Revenge left the enemy's ships at Cherbourg with their yards and topmasts struck. They were to tail again yesterday to resume their station. Saturday morning a Court Martial was held at Portsmouth, on Mr. HENSON Ban ark, - . Assistant. Surgeon of his Majesty's ship Oaiow,Tor carrying on shore the necessaries allowed to the sick of the ship: The charge being clearly established, Mr. Barker was sentenced to be dismissed his Majesty's service.--; Rear-Admiral HARGOOD, President. A Court Martial was held on the 9th and 10th lug. and on Monday last, at Portsmouth, on Lieut. Jo** GEARY, of his Majesty's schooner MULLET, fnr not having done his utmost to execute the orders of Sir ROBERT-CALDER, in proceeding with the mails to Su rinam, terbice, and Demarara, but rettrtled twice to ,pprt. Lieutenant Oeary's defence was, that die sialy . - slate of hii'crew prevented him. The Court ietiteswed him to be severely reprimanded.

On the mountains of Gloucestershire there has been a severe storm of - snow. Several carriers crossing them in the night have perished, and during the high wind a tree was blown down on one of thole unfortu nate men, which killed him on the spot and broke his horse's back. In the rallies the weather has been more temperate, but the violence of the wind and rain has been outrageous. At Cheltenham, the former has carried off the entire roofs of several houses, and damaged many others. OXFORD, NOVEMBER 17.
