The .flee ar, Stringer master.----In this case an anion was brought by some of the crew' agai;;St the Master of the Ship, which was bound on a .voyage froin Jamaica, with a very valuable cargo, destined to the Port of London, for wag - es alledged to be dire on account of the- voyage. On the part of the Master and Owners, two grounds of defence were set up ; the one was, that. this was a very unfounded'and. unrighteous demand, itTasmuch, as fifty guineas had been advanced to every able seamati, and a smaller sum to every or dinary seamen, before the vessel quitted Jamaica, under the term of run-money : the other was, that the crew had deserted the'ship before she arrived at her moorings. On the part of the seamen it was contended, there was no proof ljefore the Court that any & such pay ment was made to these men in Jamaica, and far ther, that ihey did not attempt to leave the ship un til she was fastened, to a tier of colliers in the River Thames. The Court, after expressing its indignation at the length of time this cause had been depending, was of opinion, that the crew -had- miscondaled themselves in quitting the ship in the manner stated, as it never could be supposed or maintain ed for a moment, that a ship fastened to a tier of colliers, waiting for the tide in order to come to her particular place of destination, could be deemed an arrival at her moorings ; ,and therefore pro nounced, that their wages in this case were become forfeited. A few days since as the Chapman Riga ship was coming into the North Sea, from Riga, she fell in with a 'heavy, gale of wind, which threw her , on, her beam ends ; her masts being cut away, she righted, although the sea made a fair breach over her,' which drove her stern in, and caused the tim bers to start between' decks, and washed the cabin stove from the cabin, as the water ran fore and aft. A , Dutch ship, bound to London, from the same Port, fell in with her off the Scaw, and assisted her to get into the Humber. Friday the to:h instant was driven ashore, near Minehead, the schooner Timed, John Curris, Mas. ter, of Dartmouth, laden with fruit from Malaga, bound to Bristol, who notwithstattling they took in Tour able seamen, as pilots,, off Minehead, could not pOSsibly reach that harbour, but were driven by a terrible N. W. wind, and a heavyi sea, upon the Warren Sands, where they beat for five Hours, dur ing which time. the sea making over the ship, at leaSt twelve feet high, the poor seamen were obliged to take refuge in the s!rouds, as she only means of saving their byes, hanging upon small ropcS until they had almost lost the.use of their limbs. PrOvidentially, however, the rigging held them, until the tide left the ship,,when they were taken under the hurnane care of the inhabitants, who were waiting to lend them every possible assistance. The cargo, as well what was washed on sAre, as what remained in the ship, was committed to the cate of the underwriters' agent, 'who, with a num ber of assistants were employed all that night And two. succeeding days, in colleting and securing the scattered cargo. By the morning light the .ccp,st appeared covered, for a 6n , •iderable distance, with thousandi - Of beautiful .new,lemons, - bpices - of the finest Moon. and Muscatella raisins, jars of large white grapes,. &c. The Porcher ' -, Tay, , and the Highland Chief, , taken and carried into the Isles of France, are con demned were.

The Tradesman, Watson, from Lynn to Wakefield, is got , into Grimsby, after being on shore on Saltfleet, and the cargo discharged. The brig N. S. del Portal, De Liherano, from Ostend.to Cadiz and Seville, has beeii found at sea without any person on board, and curried into Ramsgate. The Mary, I ones, from the B 4 of Fundy to Halifax, is lost', 'and all the crew. _ . The Hoop Van Hoe, Jacobs, from London to Amsterdam, being leaky, was deserted about ten miles front the Texel. Captain and crew arrived ,Elsinore. The Maly, Sieman, from Amsterdam to New York, is lost near New ork. • Part of the-cargo saved. The Faithful Sally, Burke, tf.nm . Jamaica to Cork, which put into Charleston in distress, is condemned there. - The Elizabeth,, I‘l'Allister, from Nova Scotia to New foundland,-was lost at.Newfouflland in September last. ,The Diligent, Porvior, front.

GL7RALTAR, Nov. 30. YESTERDAY the Thames frigate, commanded br Captain HOLLES, arrived here from Sir RICHARD ' 13TCRERTorr's 'squadron, after a passage of six week s ,' Ac the time the Thames sailed, Sir RICHARD, wi t h four sail of the line, 'was at the rendezw,ui in th e island of Sardinia, waiting for the five sail of the line from this, which h - ad not then joined Previous to the sailing of the Thames, the GrO' hound frigate had arrived from Toulon,, where,sl gt had been " sent to examine the .preparations making by the French, which, ,however, did not appear t° be then very considerable; or to be carried on with any adivity, only - five sail of the line being read', for sea. But by letters from Malaga, we are .informetly that the Constellation, American frigate, had jo t arrived from Toulon, after a short passage, and that the French were then arming every- thing thef could with the utmost aEtivity it that port. Th e :, Captain of the Conitellativn said, " Thar he ho' been treated_ with much greater civility and atter)" tion by the French than formerly, and that they seem now to wish to conciliate the friendship of th!
