At the instant, a summons was sea to the t ;overnor of Vigo to 'intender at dis-- creti•n, which led to a negociation between him and the French, which continued till the 26th, when Don Pablo Murdlo, commanding a regular force of fifteen hundred men, composed of 'retired sol dial sin this Province, arrived, and sent in a summon!' to surrender. In consequence of which, on the fol lowing due, the proposals (No. I.) woe brought on board by Don Pablo 'Murillo, accompanied by three French Officers. The answers to them (No. 2,) were delivered at sp. ise. by Captaiu Crawford, who concluded the Cap:t.datiou which I have the honour to inciose ; and the whole of the prrison. consisting of a Colonel, forty-five Officers, aid abeMt thirteen or fourteen hundred men, were embarked the nest morning. . .
