On Thursday evening last, the Ranger, Captain Whelan, belonging to Mr. Murphy of this city, an chored off Dunmore. She was one of the New foundland Peet that sailed from our harbour on the 1 2d inst. and was, together with the Mary Atme, Captain Doyle, belonging to Messrs. Saunders and Sweetman, of Big Plascntia, captured on Sun day last, about 1:30 miles west of Cape Clear, by the General Angst-ram privateer, Captain Pilote, carrying sixteen guns, of which four were Imps nine-pounders, and about 70 men. The Captain ordered all the hands and passengers from the ALose Anne (which was the finer vessel of the two) into the Range,., not wishing, we suppose, to be incum bcred by such Freight as a number of high-spirited, resolute young men, who might, and would, pro bably, if an opportunity offered, take unwelcome liberties with his vessel and crew ; and, after giving them stifficient provisions, and taking from them all their little valuables, in the struggle to prevent which, several of our poor lads received blows fern those marauders, who were all armed with pistols. cutlasses, and long knives, the Range was permitted to depart. Captain Doyle and his Mate, together with the Mate of the Ranger, were detained, and sent prisoners into France. Captain Pilote re ported, that about ten days before, he had seen, from off our Light-house, the Newfoundland fleet lying near Duncannon Fort, and after they sailed had dogged them for several days, but kept at a respealul distance, in consequence of the Spitfire, of which he gave an accurate description, and two of our frigates being in- sight. He also mentioned that he had taken three vessels, one of which was from Liverpool, bound to Newfoundland; that he was well acquainted with this country, and had been a prisoner in Waterford during the American war. The privateer, we understand, had been a Spanish gailiot, was easily disguised, sailed un.nm monly fast, had yellow sides, with white mouldings, and was copper bottomed. Our vessels, it is said , , parted company front their convoy in a fog. LIMERICK, MAY 9. Monday last two young gentlemen, who were east away in the ships Feed and Sehastiama, part of the unfi.rtunate convoy, under Capt. Dixon, of His 'Jailor's ship Apit;o, the 2d of April last, on the coast of Portugal, arrived in our quay, in the schooner Rim Suet-rise, of St. Vbes, laden with wine, cork, wood, etc. its thirteen days from Oporto, from them we learn that there were several vessels whose seeire erews and passengers were saved, but that their dist:cis was beyond conception. Their pro perty, cloaths, and every valuable article at once sunk in the ocean ! The British ship Fortitude, from New York to Londonderry, with 1000 hhds. of flax seed and other goods, has been captured, and sent into France. PORTSMOUTH, MAY 13. The Athenirnne, of 64 guns, Chichester, of 41, and Trx:rero bomb, arc unraooring, to sail to St. Helen's. Ilse Ertropa, of 50 guns, is ordered to be got teed, for commission at this port. The Beatdra frigate, it is reported, will shortly Ad for Weymouth, at which place His Majesty is *spotted to pass some little time. Arrived the Pre.run cutter, from a cruise; and the Falcon revenue cutter, from the fleet off Havre, with seven French prisoners, saved from four large French gun-boats, lost in the River of Alderney. Sailed the Cberlotte schooner, lacutenant Alt, on a cruise; also the seven transports which arrived here on Saturday from Cork, to disembark their troops.—Wind A Court Martial was this day held on board the Gladiator to try Thomas Carter, a private marine, for sleeping on his post, and disorderly behaviour.

LOSS OF THZ ATOLL° ThICATF., te. - laterenhag Narrative of the Loss of His Majesty's ship the Apollo, J. W. V. Dixon, Esq. Captain, with about Forty * Ail of her Convoy, so the Coast of Portugal, three 1.1. igo-s North nf Cape Mondusge, when en bar Pasmage foe Ille West Indies, u the2d of April, 1804. Monday, the tGth of March, sailed from the Cove of Cork, in company with His Majesty's ship Carvs for t, and 69 sail of merchant ships, under convoy for the West Indies; 27th were out of sight of land, with a fair wind, blowing a strong gale and steering about W.S.W. the 23th, 2!)•.h, and 3uth,weatlier and course neatly the same: 31st, the wind came more to the westward, but more moderata. Sunday, the Ist of April, at noon, observed in latitude .10 deg. 61 min. Worth. Longitude per account, 12 deg. 29 min. west; at eight o'clock on Sunday evening, the wind shifted to the S. W. blowing fresh; course S.S.E. At ten, up main-sail, and set the main stay-sail. At a quarter past ten, the main stay-sail split by the sheet giving way ; called all hands upon deck. At half past ten strong breezes and squally, took in the tnretopsail, and set the foresail. At ball past eleven, the main-top sail split, (pried it, and the mainsail. The ship was now under her foresail, l main and miren storm stay-sails; the wind blowing ! bard, with a heavy sea. About half past three on Monday morning, the 2d, the ship struck the ground, to the astonishment of every one on board, and by the above reckoning, we then conjectured upon an unknown shoal. She continued striking the ground very heavy several times, by which her bottom was materially damaged, and making much water; the chain-pumps were rigged with the utmost dispatch, and the men be gan to pump, but in about ten minutes she beat and drove over the shoal. On endeavouring to steer her, found the rudder carried as ay ; she then got before the wind ; the pumps w ere kept goir.g, but from the quantity of water she shipped, there was every probability of her soon fooadeting, as she was fill ing, and sinking very fast. After rutting about live minutes, the ship struck the ground again, Kith such tremendous shocks, that we were fearful she would instantly go to pieces, and kept striking and driving further on the sands, the sea making bleaches completely over her. Cut away the lanyard, of the main and mizen rig ging, and the masts fell, with a tremendous crash, over the larboard side; the fore-mast went immedi ately after. The ship then fell on her starboard side, with the gunwale under water. The violence with which she struck the ground, and the weight of the guns, those on the quarter-deck tearing away the bulwark, soon made the ship a perfect wreck abaft ; only four or five guns could possibly be fired to alarm the convoy, and give notice of danger. On her striking the second time, most pitiful cries were heard every where between decks, many of the men giving themselves up to inevitable death. was told that I might as well stay below, as there was an equal likelihood of perishing if I got upon deck. I was determined to go, but first attempted to enter my cabin, and was in danger of having my legs broke by the chests floating about, and the bulk-heads were giving way ; I therefore desisted, and endeavoured to get upon deck, which I effected, after being several times washed down the hatch way, by the immense volume of water incessantly pouring down. The ship still beating the ground very heavy, made it necessary to cling fast to some part of the wreck, to prevent being washed by the surges, or hurled by the dread concussions, over board ; the people holding fast by the larboard bul wark of the quarter-deck, and in the main-chan nels, while our good Captain stood naked upon the cabin sky-light grating, holding fast by the stump of the mizen-mast, and making use of every sooth ing expres.ion which could have been suggested to encourage men in such a perilous situation. Most of the Officers and men were entirely naked, not having time even to slip on a pair of trowsers. Our horrible situation ever) moment became more dread ful ; until day-light appearing, about half-past four o'clock, discovered to us the land, at about two cable's length distance, a long sandy beach, reaching to Cape Mondego, three leagues to the southward of us. On day-light clearing up, we could perceive between 20 and tiO sail of the convoy ashore, both to the northward and southward, and several of them perfect wrecks. We were now certain of be ing on the coast of Portugal, from seeing the above Cape, though, I am sorry to say, no person in the ship had the least idea of being so near that coast. It blowing hard, and a very great swell of the sea (or what is generally termed waves running moun tains high), there was little prospea of being saved. About eight o'clock, there being every likelihood of the ship going to pieces, and the after-part lay ing lowest, Captain Dixon ordered every person forward, which it was very difficult to comply with, from the motion of the mainmast working on the larboard gunwale, there being no other way to get forward. Mr. Cooke, the Boatswain, had his thigh broke, in endeavouring to get a boat over the side ; of six fine boats, not one was saved, being all stove, and washed overboard with the booms, &c. Soon after the people got forward, the ship parted at the gangways. The crew were now obliged to stow themselves in the fore-channels, and from thence to the bowsprit-end, to thc number of 220 ; for out of 240 persons on board when the ship first struck, I suppose 20 to have previously perished between decks and otherwise. Mr. Lawton, the gunner, 1 the first who attempted to swim a-shore, was drown ed ; afterwards, Lieutenant Wilson, Mr. Runde, Surgeon, Mr. M'Cabe, Surgeon's Mate, Mr. Stand ley, Master's Mate, and several men, shared the same fate, by reason of the sea breaking in enor mous surges over them, though excellent swimmers. About 30 persons had the good fortune to reach the shore, upon planks and spars, among whom were Lieutenant Harvey, and Mr. Callan, Master's Mate. Monday night, our situation was truly hor rid, the old men and boys dying through hunger and fatigue ; also, Mr. Proby and Mr. Hayes, Mid shipmen. Captain Dixon remained all this night upon the bowsprit. Tuesday morning presented as no better prosped of being relieved from the jaws of death ; the wind blowing stronger, and the sea much more turbulent. About neon, this day, our drooping spirits were somewhat raised by seeing Lieut. Harvey, and Mr. Callan, hoisting out a boat from one of the merchant ships to come to the assistance of their distressed shipmates. They several times attempted to launch her through the surf; but being a very heavy boat, they could not possibly effete it. Seve ral men went upon rafts this day, made from pieces of the wreck, but not one soul reached the shore ; the wind having shifted, and ;he current setting out, they were all driven to sea; among whom was our Captain, who, about three in the afternoon, went on the jib boom with three seamen; anxious to save the remainder of the ship's company, and too san guine of getting safe on shore, ventured upon the spar, saying, on jumping into the sea—'" My lads, I'll save you all." In a few seconds he lost his bold of the spar, which he could not regain; he drifted to sea, and perished. Such was also the fate of the three brave volunteers who chose his fortune. The night drawing on, the wind increasing, frequent showers of rain, the sea washed over us, and looking every instant for the forecastle giving way, when is e must have all perished together, afforded a speClacle truly deplorable. After the most painful night that is possible to conceive, on day-light appearing, we observed Lieutenant Harvey and Mr. Cailam again endeavouriiT to launch the brat. Several attempts were made without success, a number of men belong ing to the merchant ships being much bruised and hurt in assisting ; alternate hopes 7:1 d fears now per vaded our wretched minds ; fifteen men got safe on shore this morning, on pieces of the wreck. About three in the afternoon of Wednesday the 4th, we had the inexpressible happiness of seeing the boat launched through the suit; by the indefatigable ex ertion of the above officers, assisted by the masters of the merchant ships, with a number of Pottuguese peasants, who were encouraged by Mr. Whitney, the British Consul, from Figuient. All the crew then remaining on die wreck were brought safe on shore. Some ships sunk with all their crew, and almost every ship lost, from two to twelve men each ; yet the situation of the remainder was not equal to that of the frigate's ship's company; as the merchant ships drawing a less draught of water, were mostly . driven close on the shore, and no person remained on board them after the first morning.
