I have the honour to report It) yOur : LOrdship; the surrender, by Capitulation, of the Oorrsif Sear• borough, and the restoration of die Island , if Too , .bago to the 'British Government. I have thebaris. fa(tion to add, that this event tint:emits- to he re. ceit , e'd by the Colony, the Inhabitants of Whieliare' almbst entirely British,• with the' , l4veliest sense .of graiitude. The circumstances which led' tti , this fdrtunate end valuable conquest, were ari. , follow zsth, Commodore Hood, witifthe FleeraaTroopsi sailed from St. Lucia,. and yesterday, at day.break, we made this Island. —About five eekek in the Afternoon, having landed the greater part of the Troops, the two leading. columni :riserckd forward Searboroirgh, and Meeting Oppo..' .sion in the Defiles of St..:Mark'f;3' dyrruced to I.Jnunt Grace, from which place I aerii a Summons to the Commwidant.General Berthier, who returned an apswerby proposing terms of capitulation, which were finally. settled about four, this morning, and at eleven possession of the.

General irtacin. 'file Fort having surrendered Without resistance,' I earl only speak, in general ternis; of th'e'egeellent dis'cipline and good condo& of the Offidik'ind'Spl: diers in this Expedition ; there is no doubt, had the . , French Garrison been suffici ent ly stiimg to have b.tzarded resistance, they would have lief with as obstinate an attack as was experienced' by the,Gar. Ilion of IVlorrie Fortunee. It is next to impossible' for me to sly, too much in praise Of the co.operation of the, 'Navy. The 'Froops are in the highest degree indebted to Com. rni;dore flood for the accoturnodati6O -afforded to them on board. and to the judicious' arrangements and execution in the embarking and disembarkation ktf them by• Captain .
