WES r I_VDIES. JAMAtCA, Jt.q..y11.- 7 .Arrived the Irriri, Captain Moss : she was bond to. St. Thomas's, with a cargo . of itimber and provision's; but being' run foul of-at sea by a Schooner, by which she had hdr bowsprit carried away, and becoming leaky, was compollc`ci to bear away for this Island. Twenty Miles to the S. E. of Alta Vela she ivas boarded by a French Pri vateer Schooner, who carried her under Cape.Lope't, and there plundered her of every article of awns, &C. &c. nnrove all her standing and running rigging, took a new cable away, and cut about two fatkOms off. the one in . 'use; and having thus•dis mantled her, ordered Capt. Moss to proceed on his voyage. - • A person of the name of DE 13aunr,, who lately arrived here in the Schooner Gondola, from Charles 'ton, attempted on Thur4day, in , a tit of jealousy, on board that Vessel, first - to deprive the woman with whom he cohabited, and who came with him from America, of her existence, and then to put a period to his own, As the woman was . coming out of tho companion-doorlie discharged a pistol loaded whit ball at her, which fortunately did her but little in jury, the bill.anerely grazing her right hreast; and instantly discharged another at himself, the bullet from which entered his breast, but taking au oblique . dire&iou, and not lodging in his body, it is thought he . Will soon recover from the effeetsof the wOund. Immediately on perceiving be had not effaced his diabolical purpose, he caught hold of the woman, and attempted to precipitate' both overboard, but the woman, by a .vioient struggle, fortunately ex tricated herself from him, on which he threw him self o'verboard . :. be was, hoWever, saved from being drowned, by the exertion's of a s eaman and iiegro, man, who happened to he present. Ho was after wards taken into custody. During the severe squall on Monday forenoon the Ship Baroness 10iiguieul, lying off Messrs. DICK, AiI`CALL, and 'Co.'s wharf, unfortunately upset; and nearly went under water. The crew ; with the ex, ception of a cabin-boy, clung to the sides, and were picked op immediateliatter : the'bey was supposed to gave been drowned, having gone down with 'the Ship ; but happily the succeeding morning, While exertions were 'Milking to right her, he was disco, ,vered at' the cabin-window, and taken out, quite exhausted, by.a'boat which was passing by. 'lt 4)- pears that he had got into a situation where he was just enabled to keep his head above water, having a firm footing With his feet, and a hold above With his hands, and in that perilons state did he remain until so providentially rescued. Great hopes arts enter tained that the Vesso will be saved, being very light, and every endeavour used by cutting away her topmasts, clearing the rigging., "SOV3 kiOt with eighteen barrels of sugar, was likewise onfor tunately lost. Several other Vessels bioke from their moorings, and, drifting against the wharlS, sustain ed some damage. _ JutirE. 27.--Tbe Drake Sloop of War, of 1(3 gnus . Capt.

CRQIYIARTI; late of the Brig ehar4es . , ,of this Port, and four Negroes belonging to. that . Vessel, arrived in Di ake, 'rho Charles sailed from Port-Ro} al fbr Lucca on the 20th ult. aml on the following day, about twenty miles to leewatd of Black-River, fell in Nr WI the French Privateer Schooner 4,4 vengeance, of five guns and 85 men, when an glion commenced, and lasted for three hours, at which time the Enemy hauled her wind bore= aWay but bavin2l in about two hours after repaired her damage, she, t0.,-,70,.; zdongside in a , calin, and the-contest wils renewed and continued for up-, wards of an hour,: The Charles, haying expen,dqd all her ammunition, was, at length compelied to strike her colours, and was carried, into Trinidad, in Cuba, from whence C pt. CEIONIART I E and the se-. gross were sent all in a cartel on board the Drake,: then lying off that Port. • Le Godan Brig, Of 16 gnus, Capt. CLOIENT, all 4. the. Pill lids, of 12 ghnh, Lieht.

We are sorry to state?, treat tut St, Lucia,Brig,. ofd 4Q guns, and 90 men, the Uo i. capt; M. DK COVRCY, belonging to the Windward Island station, has been captured by tWo'.French Privateers, and taken into Guadaioupe or Martinique. It appears that the Si. Lucia gave dike to the Privateers for a considerable time, and when she had neared them, they commenced a very smart engagement, in which several were killed on both sides, •and she was at last compelled, after great resistance to yield, in consequence of the superiority of their force.
