A letter has been received from a respectable gentleman just returned to the West Indies, by which we are grieved to hear that a Slave Ship was fallen in with on the passage, which had left the Coat of Africa with 100 slaves, ten of whom had died; three of the whites had also died, the Captain was ill, Use whole appearance of the vessel was mi.' s , :rable, and she was in so leaky a state, that it was thought she could hardly reach land. The Captain, pretending to be a Spaniard, bound to Cuba, hoisted Spanish colours, but as he spoke English so well, there was every reason to believe he was an Englishman, or an American, and was going to smuggle the slaves into some American vrt.
